A couple have bought a painting depicting a creepy looking family. As they prepare for an "early night", we see a man in the painting start to move! Just like the paintings in Harry Potter. I feel like I've been relating a lot of things back to Harry Potter just lately. Shortly afterwards we see that the couple have been brutally murdered, presumably by the man in the painting. Nasty. I've had worse dates though.
Here's something else I should have added in to the Supernatural Drinking Game, Dean flirting with a lady, double drinks if he gets her number as he seems to have done here. Meanwhile Sam is as ever the only one doing proper work and is scouring the newspapers for potential cases. He comes across the story of the recently murdered couple.
Dean and Sam believe that it was a cursed object in the house that caused the deaths, although they do not yet know it was a painting. They head over to an art auction where all the items are being sold on. Dean wastes no time in scoffing as much of the free food as possible. A man after my own heart.
It's Sam's turn for a bit of flirting now when he meets Sarah at the art show. She is the daughter of the owner and so Sam takes her out on a date in order to find out some information about the exhibits. The difference between Sam and Dean is that Sam feels genuinely bad about using Sarah in this way. Truth be told I think he's kind of into her anyway and she seems very nice so it's a shame that she'll almost certainly find out what he's up to which will lead to a great upset. Either that or she'll be killed like every other woman who gets close to Sam!
They discover the item they need is a specific painting so they break into the show at night, steal it and burn it. Problem solved!
That was the shortest episode ever! Or not. As the painting burns we see that another version of it reforms in its frame.. Oh dear. Maybe they should have burnt the frame too!
Returning to the show the next day to say goodbye to Sarah, Sam notices the picture is back and I think the phrase is "he completely loses his shit!" Poor Sarah is left confused and stunned at his outburst at discovering the painting has somehow reformed itself.
Woah woah woah! Hold the front page! Literally actually. Whilst researching the family shown in the painting, a helpful librarian finds the front page of a newspaper from 1912. I had to pause the episode at this point as most of the front page was taken up with news of the sinking of the Titanic which is a particular interest of mine. I know what you're thinking, James such an interesting guy! Unfortunately this allowed me time to read the article about the murdered family in more detail and whoever made this newspaper page for this episode was a bit sloppy. It speaks of the murder of the family and then they must have run out of things to say so they printed the exact same text again afterwards! Sloppy work by the props department there. Did they really think they could get that past me?? Disgraceful.
I am kidding of course. I couldn't give a crap about such things.
Sarah is pretty damn fantastic actually. She's discovered what is going on and has joined Sam and Dean in trying to defeat it. Dean tells Sam that Sam should marry her and I agree. I like her and I'm enjoying how she is throwing herself right into the action along with them.
The man in the painting apparently murdered his whole family, also pictured. It was mentioned briefly that one of his children was adopted and I'm thinking that may be significant because it seems unusual to mention it if it wasn't going to lead to something. In the painting he is always looking towards one of the children's so I'm wondering if she is the adopted one. Not sure why that would lead him into killing his whole family though!
Well the adopted child was a big hint to the final reveal but not quite what I expected. It turns out it is the child who is doing the killing and not the man. The man has been looking at the girl as a hint that she is the one killing people. He could have made it a bit more obvious! Like pointing at her and holding up a sign saying "This bitch is crazy!"
To my great delight it is Dean who saves Sam and Sarah by finding the only remains left of the little girl and burning them.This was a great twist as it seems that all her remains were already destroyed before Sarah realised that the hair on the girls doll was the girls hair as was the tradition at the time.
I really enjoyed that one. Another good episode. It still doesn't feel like we are building up to a big finale yet but I have a few episodes to go so hopefully that will come soon. The episode ends with Sam running back to kiss Sarah. Aww. I hope she is in the next episode but I don't think she will be.
I'm going to have to give Dean the point for this one! It's 4:4!
