‘Supernatural’ Recap ‘Don’t You Forget About Me’

Supernatural
Recap “Don’t You Forget About
Me”

It’s old home week on this
episode of

Supernatural

“Don’t You Forget About Me” was a fun way to
see
Jodi Mills again, as her
presence is one of the last few links to the
Supernatural of the past. The
boys being back in Sioux Falls and
working with
Jodi always makes me think of Bobby, and what almost was. Not
to mention the
fact that she
is one of their last friends who is still breathing.

In the
last
couple years, Jodi has taken two of
the wayward teens that Sam and Dean
have had to rescue – Alex, the girl who
helped the vampires lure in
unsuspecting
victims and Claire, the daughter of Castiel’s vessel, Jimmy
Novak.

The

Case…

With no leads on Amara, and no word
from Cas/Lucifer,
the boys head out to South Dakota
after getting a call from
Claire about a case. Dean and Sam arrive at Jodi
Mills’ house to find Alex

living a fairly normal life – dating, school, sports – and Claire is scaring
up
anything that seems the
slightest bit off and calling it a monster. As well as
racking up a good
amount of assault charges in the
process according to Sheriff
Mills.

After a rather awkward family
dinner of chicken and mashed

potatoes (which Dean enjoys immensely) Jodi gives Dean the lo-down on Claire
and
how she seems obsessed
with hunting. Sam tries to talk to Jimmy Novak’s daughter
about the hunting
life, but the girl is set on
following the case she thinks is
unfolding around them.

This monster-
of-the-week episode escalates
quickly
however, once Alex’s favorite teacher is found strung up the flag
pole with a
broken neck. Claire
keeps insisting that there is something supernatural afoot,
and while Jodi,
Sam and Dean don’t disagree with
her, they do suggest she tone
down her approach.

Jodi insists that
Claire put down the Grimoire and

head back to her college classes instead. After some words of encouragement
from
Dean about being
grateful, Claire agrees to go register. However, as Jodi and
Claire try to
get her back to a normal life, the
monster she’s been hunting
strikes and gives both of the women a
beating.

Everything unfolds

quickly: Dean and Sam realize there is a vamp in town, and try to locate
Alex.
She tells her boyfriend to
take a hike, but he is in on it, licking his fangs
ready to bite. The
boyfriend and the janitor now have all
three of the girls and
want revenge on Alex for her past as a living
breathing vamp bait.

Once
the
Winchesters show up, all the vampires are quickly beheaded and Claire

finally gets a chance to bag her
monster.

The Moral of the
Story…

Don’t be a dick. Whether it
is an ungrateful teenager, a high

school bully, or a vamp with a chip on his shoulder. Look around and be
grateful
for what you have.
Embrace your inner goodness and appreciate the family that
surrounds you
whether you are bound by blood or
brought together through
fate.

Also, as long as everyone wears a
condom, Jodi and her girls will

be fine. (Seriously, that family dinner scene was super awkward).

The

next episode of
Supernatural airs on Wednesday, February 10 at 9/8C on
The CW.
