every episode of Supernatural
random person: *dies*
cut to Sam and Dean eating on the impala outside a food truck
Sam: so get this a random person across the country died
Dean: ok but it’s probably not our thing
*it is their thing*
Scene change: Dean and Sam walking outside
Dean or Sam: hey do you really think we should be taking this case, considering the season’s overarching plot line?
Dean or Sam: we’ve got no leads so I’ve got to work or I’ll go crazy
Dean: hello sheriff pay no attention to the fact we look like supermodels, have ridiculous names on these clearly fake FBI badges and my brother has the same hair style as Jackie Kennedy and give us all the info on this case
random sheriff: this case? Why you FBI boys are wasting your time. There isn’t a case here.
Visibly shaken white woman holding baby: this isn’t like (random person) I just can’t believe it
Dean: did you hear or smell anything weird? Sulfur? Cold spots? These are very official FBI questions.
Visibly shaken white woman holding baby: Of course, agents. Look I’ve told you everything I know, except for this mysterious hint.
*Sam swallows and looks at Dean*
*Scene change*
*Impala pulls into motel*
*research*
Sam: I think it’s this thing
*it’s not that thing*
Sam: get this, I think we’re dealing with this thing.
Dean: That’s great Sammy but I think I know where the thing is going to be
Monster: attacks visibly shaken white woman holding baby
*Sam and Dean arrive just before visibly shaken white woman holding baby passes out
Monster: *chokes Sam*
*Camera shot of Sam’s face as he is being chocked*
If only Sam could reach the phone/ knife/ gun!!!!
Sam: *eyes roll back into head*
Dean: arrives in the nick of time and kills monster
Visibly shaken white woman hugs baby, she is teary-eyed: “so you’re telling me monsters are real??? Thank you for saving us!!! If only you could have saved that random person. I guess I’ll have to move on now.”
*scene change, Sam and Dean in Impala*
Dean or Sam: that was the right thing to do
Dean or Sam: but was it
Dean or Sam: sometimes you can’t save everyone.
*implication that story of random person is the same as Sam/ Dean’s season plot line issue
Dean and Sam look at each other
Sam is clearly nervous
Dean is stoic
Impala drives into rain
Fade to black
I can’t stop laughing this is literally ten years in a nutshell
