Entirely Unnecessary Denouement. We've arrived back at Addled Kevin's house just ahead of Addled Kevin and his angelic escort themselves, and we watch for a bit as Tiger Mother chats with Random Local Police Official Who Is So Obviously A Leviathan until Addled Kevin and his angelic escort flutter on in from the lush coastal rainforests of Montana's Rocky Mountains. Random Local Police Official Who Is So Obviously A Leviathan promptly slaughters Addled Kevin's angelic escort, then morphs into Leviathan Edgar form to pretty much go, "Muah! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!" until we finally cut to black.

Not bad, as far as these sorts of exposition-dump episodes go, but I can't shake the feeling that all of this should have happened a hell of a lot earlier in the season. In fact, they pretty much could have skipped every single installment between "Death's Door" and "Of Grave Importance," and I'm positive nobody would ever have missed any of it. Ever.

Next week, more late-in-the-season delays as Our Intrepid Heroes try and apparently fail to score a couple of blood vials from Crowley and that vampire guy I thought was dead. Have fun!

Demian just wants this season over with already. Raoul remains at large. You may reach the former at demian_twop@yahoo.com. The latter is an imaginary gay dragon on the Internet who vanished without a trace back in mid-January.
