Out with the old in with the new questions

Argh, there be spoilers here for SPN S07E16 Out with the old and in with the new...




Why was the cop at the beginning such an awkward bugger? Was it just a red herring? Am I missing something?

Some gruesome scenes. I think this is what they were talking about when they describe the series as going back to be more like season one, because I don't think the Winchester's relationship has.

Did they leave George alive? Surely not, after the whole Amy Pond debacle?

Good question about George - that seemed to be left open, didn't it. I wondered if they let George eat his boss then ganked him too.

As to the cop at the start - I think they were just playing that for comedy/realism. I don't think there was any significance to his attitude!

"I wondered if they let George eat his boss then ganked him too" - that could be described as having your cake and eating it! A saying any Leviathan could get on board with.

I think you're probably right about the significance of the cop, but for some reason it really stuck in my mind!

I did see this episode, but I'm blanking on what was significant about the cop at the beginning. What did he say/do that was awkward?

It didn't seem realistic that they'd leave George alive, but that is what the writers implied. Maybe they're setting him up to be a fifth column in the Leviathan camp?
