Supernatural - My Heart Will Go On

This episode continues to prove how inventive the writers of Supernatural are.  Once again, one of my favourite movies, along with the theme song by Celine Dion, gets bagged but this time, I love the way it is done.  The boys investigate some bizarre deaths (a man is killed by his garage door after an almost implausible number of things that have to happen to cause the death as well as a woman being killed by her photocopier!  Oh and a lawyer is killed in a rather graphic way!  Brilliant!) and discover the culprit is one of The Fates from Greek mythology (who just so happens to look like a cute librarian!).  While we are watching this episode unfold, there are some WTF moments.  Firstly the boys hop into a Black with brown stripes Colt instead of the Impala and Bobby is married to Ellen, who along with Jo is alive again! After investigation, it appears the deceased are from a family who came to America on the Titanic back in 1912, but the boys have never heard of the ship!  They find out that the boat nearly hit an iceberg but was saved by one of its officers, I.P. Freely (Yep!).  The boys work out this is Balthazar!  When they summon him, he tells them that the ship was meant to sink but he hated the movie so much along with the Celine Dion song, that he stopped it from sinking so the movie is never made!!  The down side of this is that The Fates are trying to make things right and kill the descendants of the Titanic passengers, 50,000 people who should never have been born along with those that should have died in the correct timeline, namely Ellen and Jo.  Do the boys make things right so the 50,000 are never born so they can't be murdered and then have Bobby lose Ellen?!  Once again, a brilliant episode and probably one of the finest so far.  Well done.
