Dead In The Water
Sam and Dean investigate a series of mysterious drownings in Wisconsin.
Tropes
- Adult Fear
- Candlelit Bath: Not actually candlelit, but the rest of the trope fits when Andrea takes a "relaxing" bath.
- Chekhov's Gun: Lucas' drawings. Also, a gun that will only be fired four seasons later: Dean mentions in this episode that he used to love army men. It was an army man that Dean rebuilt into the Impala that caused Sam to remember their childhood good times and fight over Lucifer's control of his body in the season 5 finale.
- Creepy Child / Cute Mute: Lucas
- Deadly Prank
- Deadpan Snarker:
Andrea Barr: Must be hard, with your sense of direction, never being able to find your way to a decent pickup line. |
- Elective Mute: The kid doesn't even talk to his mom until around the end of the episode.
- Foreign Farewell
- Foreshadowing: An early line about how the initial drowning victim was as safe in the lake as in her own bathtub.
- Friend to All Children: Dean, although he can't have had much practice.
- Heroic Sacrifice
- Hey, It's That Guy!: Guest-starring Amy Acker as the resident Hot Mom.
- Meaningful Echo: The clue that the Monster of the Week is targeting Bill and Jake's children.
Bill: My children are gone. It's...it's worse than dying. |
