True, but my money is on dead!Arresting Officer demon.
Ooo, true, I forgot about him, he bugged out before the end of the exorcism. Thought now that I think about it, He might have been the one in the red-headed woman at the end, she had the same kind of attitude. Or the one in Henriksen, as you say. He was kind of the advance scout for the main force of demon smoke that arrived later.
I forget where I looked his name up the last time he showed up, but I still type it as "Henrdrickson" most of the time. editing is a PITA.
I really think the show tends to kill characters off too precipitously.
Oh absolutely. Kripke needs to let people live longer so we can reeeeeally get attached to them before he kills them. Or, you know, let them live for a change.
Except Bobby. There will be no killing of Bobby. *assumes defensive stance in front of Bobby.
Where The Hell is Ellen?
Well, this is my theory, but I doubt that's the canon case unless the writers start smoking some very bizarre plant-life. ;-)
And he was SMART without making the boys DUMB.
YES!!! That's it exactly! He even gave the boys opportunities to look even more kick-ass, taking out Swat teams, slipping out of the bank within a foot of Henriksen, the whole song and dance getting away from prison... Whereas an adversary like Ruby? No. Not the way she's being used, anyway.
Henriksen and Reidy as newbie hunters. Oh I so want fic in that AU 'verse. :-/
When was Henriksen vulnerable to it?
There's a missing scene in that, I think. Henriksen was a bit of a stress puppy, I think, so when his prize collar started to go south on him he may have had some stress issue flare ups, especially given his deputy director was killed, and the station's under siege. It doesn't have to have possessed him immediately, it could have hung out in the vents and crap until an opportune moment came up... hm. Lemme think about that.
Meeting Jefferson or Joshua would be neat, but part of me still says after 'Salvation' if any of John's hunter contacts who were just acquaintances rather than friends heard about demons going around killing off friends of the Winchester family, they'd be quick to change their phone numbers and move without forwarding address. Bobby, Pastor Jim, Caleb and Ellen were just made of sterner or rather more loyal stuff.
Ellen and Bobby (and Jo) are the only good guys so far who've recurred and *not* died
Well, there's Missouri, but I doubt we'll see her again. The actress has a regular role on Eli Stone. That and half of fandom was not too happy with her one appearance.
What gets me is that they don't have more phone contacts. I mean if Samantha Ferris wasn't available in person, they could have had one of the boys hang up and say 'Jefferson's got nothing' 'Ellen says hi' or even a voice-over, because those can be done from anywhere.
I think part of it though is that in the series they're trying to build a sense of isolation from even the hunter community for the boys. Which makes Ruby's presence that much more irksome. Initially, she was a good concept, but not well executed, now the concept's gone Mary-Sue, and, just, grr.
