Official Synopsis: Supernatural Episode 8.14
Here’s the official synopsis from The CW for the February 13th episode, “Trial and Error.” Things are getting interesting!
KEVIN DECIPHERS THE TABLET — Kevin (guest star Osric Chau) deciphers the tablet and figures out how to close the gates of Hell. He tells Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) that according to the tablet one person must face a series of three tests designed by God. The first one – kill a hellhound. Sam and Dean argue over who should complete the trials. Kevin Parks directed the episode written by Andrew Dabb (#813).

Alice Jester is the founder, editor-in-chief, head writer, programmer, web designer, site administrator, marketer, and moderator for The Winchester Family Business. She is a 30 year IT applications and database expert with a penchant for creative and freelance writing in her spare (ha!!) time. That’s on top of being a wife, mother of two active kids, and four loving (aka needy) pets.
Wow, this sounds like a great episode – I can’t wait!
‘So, he who crosses this bridge of death must answer me (or God) these questions three, ‘ere the other side he see.’
Actually, I think both Sam and Dean would know the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow, both African and European so these challenges should be a doddle. And haven’t they already killed a hellhound?
Huh, I wonder if the three challenges are all in some way related to the three locations on the tablets ie hellhound for hell, something angelic from heaven (a manky suit and white shirt….) and something from Purgatory (Benny?)
“The Knights who say Ni demand a sacrifice! We want
……………A SHRUBBERY!!!!”
I think Meg killed one. Not them. They set the explosives in AAH but Ellen pushed the button.
Crowley’s hellhound fought one as well. They haven’t managed it yet.
Tis but a scratch.
