Memorable Moments: Supernatural 11.02 “Form and Void”
Welcome to “Memorable Moments”. Each week I will visually recap what I felt were the best and most memorable moments from that episode. The list may vary from week to week , depending on what has transpired in that particular episode.
Best MacGyver Moment
Sam making and using his own stun gun.
Best Guest Actor Scene(s)
The Reaper Billie played by Lisa Berry. I loved her powerful performance from her beautiful but eerie version of “O’ Death” to her informing Sam that there will be no more resurrections nor a place in Heaven for him and Dean.
Best Crowley Line(s)
As usual Crowley had some great one lines.
‘Hello my son’
‘After I finish my tea’
‘I’m sorry agent pathetic rock star’
‘I was getting bored.’
Best VFX scene
I chose two scenes that I thought were very well done.
The blocks flying above Amara and then being whipped into the wall…
to form the words ‘Feed Me’,
and Sam’s visions of being tortured back in the PIT.
Best Sam Moment
Sam praying, not for himself but for Dean and for hope. “And if I have to die, I made my peace with that. But please Dean deserves better. Dean deserves a life.”
Best Dean Moment
Dean being handed baby Amara and reassuring her “Hey beautiful.” Such a paternal moment.
Best Musical Cue
“Oh Death” being sung as the Reaper Billie takes the soul of the newest victim
Scariest Moment
Even though I knew something was going to happen when Sam reached down for the pudding, it still made me jump as he became face to face with his captive.
“Liar! You and me, we’re dead. We’re just taking our sweet time about it, so if you were smart you’d put a bullet in me and then one in you.”
Grossest Moment
Sam’s flashback of the PIT. Anything with eyes… EEEWWWWWW!
Best Bad Ass Moment
Cas getting all dog and killing Efram and Jonah.
Saddest Moment
Cas realising that Hannah is playing him.
Creepiest Moment
Crowley offering up the ‘Mini Van Family’ to Amara. “Want some candy little girl?”
And Amara accepting the offer with just a creepy smile.
I hope you enjoyed this week’s “Memorable Moments” review! Please share what your picks would be for these categories, or offer categories of your own!
Okay, I imagine I am in the minority of one here but I thought the scene with the FEED ME blocks was straight out of a campy horror flick or parody. How about the plant in “little shop of horrors”: FEED ME SEYMOUR! I know many joined NIghtsky in her horror of the baby scenes. Just thought I would throw it out there.
I agree, Sam in the chapel was a great scene. In fact the whole Sam, in the hospital set, storyline, and guest stars was great!
Thanks Karen for the recaps, well done.
spnlit, I actually liked the blocks scene and found it effectively creepy, but your LSOH comparison cracked me up. It would be funny if Amara was to grow as quickly and become as gigantic as the plant.
Hi spnlit
I also laughed at your LSOH reference. I haven’t seen that movie in over 20years. Thank you so much for your comments.
Karen, once again I loved your memorable moments and agreed with each and every pick. But I did not realize that the hell visions included weird eyeball torture because the scene flashed by so quickly. Like you, I am grossed out by eye things more than almost anything else, so now I really feel bad for Sam and even for Jared, because it looks like they really did contort the skin around his eyes. EEEEWWWW indeed!
Hi samandean
I’m so happy you’re enjoying these. I don’t know how the CGI works whether they actually have to do anything to his eyes, if they do I also feel bad for him.
Great “great moments” Karen! I agree, that thing with the hooks pulling out the skin away from Sam’s eyes….. ick and double ick. I know that they are doing that in a way that doesn’t hurt him at all, but *shudders* it looks so awful. I think a tie for the either the scariest or grossest moment must be when they CGI’d the baby’s face and she aged. That seriously creeped me out. It was so subtle and that I couldn’t even tell what was happening to her in that moment, just that he little baby face was changing and morphing in this disturbing way.
Agreed that Sam got the best part of his episode all around though, his prayer, his conversation with Billie (I hope we see her again) his vision and his smarts…..yeah! Sammy for the win! He really deserved that definitive win didn’t he? Yeah.
Hi BoGirle
I thought I saw something with the baby’s face changing but I couldn’t find any screencaps at the time, otherwise I would have had that as well.
Sammy for the Win! Definitely on board with that. 🙂 Thank you for your comments.
These were good choices. Did anyone else find it weird that Sam was being tortured with his jeans (and belt) still on? I mean, he’s in hell, why is he wearing clothes? And why is it that the women get tortured naked, (Meg and I think Ruby, right?) but the guys always have their clothes on? Not that I want to finally have an actual naked Sam scene and he’s being tortured horribly, I just found it incongruous.
Hi sylvia37
I have to laugh because I thought the same thing. Why are the women tortured naked but not the men. I guess being shirtless the most the J’s are willing to do. Which I have no problem with.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Haven’t you heard Jared say “I never wear jeans without a belt.” I’ll bet Sam does too! He’d never get tortured in jeans if there was no belt.
I agree, one would not be wearing clothing in hell but Sam probably did insist! [quote]He’d never get tortured in jeans if there was no belt.[/quote]. 😀
I think you chose spot on scenes now so nothing to add here. I actually don’t like torture scenes and I have a slight fear of needles and hemophobia (yes, I do know I watch Supernatural) and even though it has helped a bit to watch the show with them nothing could prepare me for those visions… Can’t wait for next weeks article!

Hi Lilah_Kane
I always have to look away for anything with the eyes or anything mucus/vomit related. 😀 Thank you for your comments.
Most Sobs, Hannah dying and Castiel loosing his only friend from the angels and Jenna dying.

Hi Suzkatoon75
Great choices! I agree it was nice to have both Sam and Dean being thanked for their work. Thanks for sharing.
I agree about your choice for most sobs as to Hannah dying and Castiel’s loss. I loved the male actor’s version of Hannah because I could so see female Hannah in the portrayal. I had high hopes that Hannah would lead the angels and help Castiel choose the right path on occasion. She was so brave and insightful when she chose to return to heaven and then…….. bam! The darkness does have far reaching effects. She panicked at the alarms and now she is dead.
