Amazons, Affairs, and Awkward Parenting: Dean’s Wild Night Out
Welcome to this episode of Gank That Drank: A Supernatural Drinking Game Podcast, where hosts Krissy Lenz and Nate McWhortor dive into Season 7, Episode 13 of Supernatural—”The Slice Girls.” What starts as Dean’s one-night stand at the Cobalt Room quickly escalates into a literal parenting nightmare when his hookup with Lydia results in a daughter who ages faster than a time-lapse video. Meanwhile, the boys are hunting a killer who’s been slicing and dicing men across Seattle, leaving behind mysterious symbols and non-human DNA. Spoiler alert: the two cases are very much connected.
Krissy and Nate break down this mythology-heavy monster-of-the-week episode, discussing everything from the awkward AC/DC sex scene soundtrack to the heartbreaking final confrontation between Dean and his daughter Emma. They explore the parallels to Dean’s earlier decision to kill Amy, debate whether the episode’s international title “Father’s Day” (Vatertag in German) would’ve been better, and appreciate how Supernatural sandwiches compelling standalone stories into its Leviathan-heavy season. The hosts also celebrate guest star Harry Groener as the eccentric Professor Morrison, recognizing him from his iconic role as the Mayor in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Drinking Game Highlights:
- Take a drink when someone gets sliced and diced (2 times)
- Drink when Bobby is referenced (8-12 times depending on your counting method)
- Sip when Sam or Dean talk on the phone (4 times)
- Drink when Dean hits Bobby’s flask (4 times)
- Take a shot when a baby is born (bonus rule!)
Additional Thoughts:
- The Amazon mythology gets a creepy cult twist with flesh-eating rituals and rapid aging
- Dean’s mini-fridge situation is depressing: craft singles, half a burrito, and two beers
- The close-up cinematography during the bar scene was… a choice
- Detective Charlene’s red-eyed reveal needed more build-up
- In retrospect, drinking every time Emma ages would’ve been the perfect rule
Krissy gives this drinking game 4 out of 5 gold daggers, while Nate awards it 3 out of 5, noting it needed just one more drinking cue to reach perfection. Both agree that Season 7 continues to deliver quality episodes, proving why it’s considered one of Supernatural‘s wheelhouse seasons alongside Season 5.
