CaffieneKittySpace - SPN Stuff: Predictions for Season 3

Okay, just 'coz I feel the need to have a post to point back to and say "See! I knew it!" or "OMG, I was a total idiot!" Here's a summary of things I think are going to happen in Season 3. Probably mostly stuff everyone else is already guessing, but like I said, I want a posted record of what I think right now so I can see how wrong I was.

PLEASE NOTE: I don't read spoilers and the spoilers I've run across (*koff*casting*koff*) will not be referred to at all here. If anyone has confirmation or denial of any of this stuff based on any leaked info or spoilers (see sidebar for definition), PLEASE DON'T TELL ME!

Biggish Stuff:

-Dean will be perky and at peace with his deal for a bit, but something will shock him into a more serious mindset early on. Sam will be a pain about the deal until Dean starts to 'take it seriously', and then Sam'll start to get desperate, and then there will be a fight about not breaking the deal because Sam will die. And it will be shouty and hurty and awesome.

-Dean's deal will be more easily broken than it seems, and will be dealt with conclusively almost as an afterthought before the end of the season. However, he won't be happy about it, because...

-...Sam will start to push his "Dark Side" to try and activate the 'controlling demons' power Ava had, succeed horribly well (still kind of hoping for my lame theory to be valid in a teeny part), and need to be brought back from the dark by the end of the season. Or as a cliffhanger. In any case, Sam will spend a significant number of episodes being relatively evil.

-Dean will have a total knock-down, drag-out fight with Bobby and/or Ellen regarding Sam. Probably Bobby, because I still think Bobby knows things he's not saying.

-As Sam goes evil, a demon or two will show up to taunt Dean about the whole, "We let you have a year so you could see what a dumb-ass maneuver your sacrifice was. See, now Sam's gone evil, it's the end of the world and it's all your fault" thing, to watch Dean break, and after some nice tasty angst, have it backfire on them spectacularly as Dean pounds the crap out of them in some way. *nebulous hand-waving*

-At some point during this season, Dean will need to try to talk the authorities (more than just a local cop) into believing in/helping with/keeping people out of the way of the demons. I think he'll be trying to talk to Hendrickson, and I think Hendrickson will not believe him until his little FBI flunkyboy gets possessed or is revealed to be working with demons or something, just 'coz that guy has 'evil tool' written aaaaall over him.

-Sam would destroy the world to save Dean. But Dean won't let him, to save Sam from himself. Saving the world, that's just a nice side-effect. I guess that's not really a theory, I just wanted to say it :-)

-In the end, the deal or something else may resurface, and Dean will get taken to Hell, but Sam will use the Colt (since it's in the trunk) to go through the gate and get him back, possibly with an army of loyal demons at his back, and still be evil, or by himself after getting past that pesky being evil business.

Other Stuff:

-ASH IS NOT DEAD, but will turn up within the first half of the season, as a (hopefully unwilling) dupe of the demons, and probably die shortly afterwards, depending on Chad Lindberg's schedule.

-Gordon Walker will get out of jail, possibly by turning info over to Hendrickson. He will then try to rally hunters against evil Sammy and get his ass handed to him.

-Hendrickson will be a giant pain in season 3. He will catch Dean, close to when his time is up, only to have Dean's deal be dealt with by Sam, and Dean know that Sam's gone evil enough to control the demons and is running amok while he's trapped in jail with no backup. And then backup will arrive, in the form of Bobby or Ellen or some completely unexpected direction.

-Songs or song titles likely to be used: Night of the Long Knives by AC/DC, just because.

That's about all I've got at the moment. Like I said, theory only, NO SPOILERS PLEASE. This is just for reference, so I can see how wrong I am! :-D

Oh, intruiguing! I hope the Hendrickson stuff goes down like that, definitely. I'm in two minds about Evil!Sam. One one hand, yay, Evl!Sam! But on the other "I want lovely SAMMY!" I do reckon the deal breaker will be smaller than it seems, yeah.

Evil but (HAHAH my cell phone just rang, I've got Back in Black for a ringtone and it startled the crap out of me because no one ever calls me and I couldn't figure out for a second why AC/DC was playing in my kitchen. I obviously need more coffee) Where was I? Right. Evil but ultimately redeemable Sam I can totally get behind. Because Dean, all alone, with no allies, but still trying to save Sammy versus soul-crushing odds? *whimper* *thud*

Hendrickson is too damn cool. And Dean having to work with the mundane authorities is something I could go on about, based on a Hero's Cycle meta theory I have that I never got around to posting, but I've seen similar elsewhere, I think.

Ooh!! I love all of this! Kripke, are you listening? Because this would be an AWESOME season. I'm going to put this in Memories, so I can look back and see if you were on target - and if you're not, it won't be your fault, because your version is undoubtedly better than some (a lot?) of what will really happen.

Maybe we should all adopt chunks of this and write an Alternate Season 3.

*blush* Hee! Thank you!

Hehe, oh dear. Should be good for a laugh if nothing else. :-)

Ooo! If any of this gives you plot-bunnies, go for it! :-)

I think Gordon's already talking to the Feds - I think he's who gave them enough information to put Hendrickson on their trail (post-Hunted). I hope we see more about Hendrickson's investigation and he gradually has to come to the conclusion that Dean is not teh ebbil...but that Sammy is a HUGE threat. ;D

No, seriously, I think these are all fairly plausible things. (Hence the icon!) Even without Gordon, I think many of the other hunters are going to get wind of Sam and think he needs to be put down.

We *know* Dean will get out of his deal somehow - but I like the idea of actually *seeing* some portion of hell, or at least, seeing what one sees when imprisoned in hell.

I would LOVE to see a throwdown between Bobby and Dean, or even Bobby and Ellen and Dean, or Ellen and Dean. It'd be like the new Mom&Dad ganging up on him. Yes! I want Jensen backed into a corner in a fetal ball of pain and anguish!

(Oh, and as to the theory, I have always figured that without John, the Impala is the closest thing he has to the embodiment of his father, his childhood, etc. It's the equivalent of trashing *your own* room as a pre-teen in order to express the amazing levels of adolescent angst one goes through at that point. The Impala at that moment represents *everything* he hates about his situation, his father's death, and basically, his life. Dean is in many ways emotionally arrested and his anger is the most accessible of his emotions. - I've been working on a gigantic meta post for which I'm going through both seasons to examine the number and nature of Dean's physical contact with other people to see what it says, statistically, about his ratio of violent or aggressive acts to affectionate ones, as well as his initiated acts vs his non-initiated ones. It's a little bogged down in S2 at the moment, due mainly to time, but I should be able to pick it up and get it done sometime soon, though not before October 4. Then I'll have S3 to go through....)

I think you are probably right about Gordon trading info all along. I'm thinking we'll start seeing it this season and that Gordon will use it to leverage himself out of prison.

Yes! I want Jensen backed into a corner in a fetal ball of pain and anguish!

Yesssss. Dean in pain and anguish, yay! God we're evil! *facepalm* :-D

Oh, and as to the theory, I have always figured that without John, the Impala is the closest thing he has to the embodiment of his father, his childhood, etc.

*nodnod* Totally. I'd forgotten my reason for posting that particular meta was the Impala smash. That Demonseed thing in that though is still in part possible, I think, especially with the "feeding baby Sam demon blood" scene. Maybe the Croatoan virus was like a booster shot. Your meta sounds interesting!

It's a little bogged down in S2 at the moment, due mainly to time, but I should be able to pick it up and get it done sometime soon, though not before October 4. Then I'll have S3 to go through....

I know what you mean! Sometimes, heresy though it be to say so, I wish I had a pause feature so everything I want to have written and done by the start of the new season would be done. But it's a good thing I don't because we'd still be waiting for season 2. :-)

*looks at time* Crap! Gotta run!
