Oh, I love Ellen! I really do! And her comment about family made me warm and fuzzy, because the boys really are that to her. In fact, I love the whole roadhouse -- both the idea of it, and the fact that when the boys need help they don't go to some wimpy computer geek in the city like every other TV show out there: they have a mullet-bearing computer redneck and a gun-toting bartender mama instead!
And I'm totally with you on loving Eva or Ava or whatever her name was. (btw, I know this is probably a stupid question, but what's BotW?) She reminded me a little of Kaylee on Firefly or Willow on Buffy, and I've always liked those sorts of characters -- ditzy yet smart and sweet. I was bummed at the end too! I would have liked to see her stick around a little. ... well, I guess she probably IS going to stick around for a little while, but I don't really want her as a Winchester-hunting demon chick, darn it ...
It's probably a good indication of how much this episode hit my sweet spots that I'm really craving the next one now. The end of Croatoan didn't really do that, despite the cliffhanger, because the episodes leading up to it (though certainly good) had been such a giant bummerfest in so many ways. I didn't expect any resolution from this episode and I didn't expect anything more than more darkness. Instead we got THIS lovely thing! Now I want the next one very much!
