This episode managed to make me enjoy it on two fronts.

First, the director--a former Supernatural actor--added tons of SPN Easter eggs into the mix. Having watched that show for years, tripping across such a thing on live tv made me smile.

Second, the show itself kept focused on Walker--which is the most important point & reason we're here, after all.

We didn't get shelved for anything stand alone or insert, played just for fun. The writer moved the story forward and many characters, too.

--- From the Walker front:

I like that we got a thoughtful pull back from Geri (Odette Annable), reacting to the last ep's news.

Do I think it was fair to in any way blame Abby? NO. NOPE. NEVER.

But it was understood.

And my heart tore for Abby (Molly Hagan) & later Cordell (Jared Padalecki), trying to understand that pull back.

--- Also love, love, loved getting more of the story for Cassie (Ashley Perez)

Bless the writer (Katherine Alyse) for smoothly adding in what looks to be a really twisty mystery, as well as keeping Cassie in character--sassy, but sad; smart, yet with a blind spot; angry, but not unhinged.

--- All in all, a smooth episode from all angles.

Good job and a well-deserved ten.
