History Recap / SupernaturalS03E01TheMagnificentSeven

For the series so far = At least 210 humans, 15 ghosts, 5 vampires, 2 shapeshifters, 2 werewolves, 5 demons, 1 djinn, 1 god, 1 rakshasa, 1 rawhead, 1 shtriga, 1 wendigo, and 1 zombie.

* AcceptableBreaksFromReality: Chugging drain cleaner ''is'' fatal, but it takes a '''''long''''' time, and be absolutely agonizing.

* BadGuyBar: The Sins like to hang out together at a local bar that is frequented by them and them alone. Wrath, who lays claim to it as his bar, especially hates it when hunters pay their unwelcome visits. Too bad Isaac and Tamara don't realize any of this until it's too late, which results in Isaac suffering a gruesome death. FridgeHorror comes into play when one considers [[CruelAndUnusualDeath what]] the Sins would do to ordinary citizens coming in.

For the series so far = At least 200 humans, 15 ghosts, 5 vampires, 2 shapeshifters, 2 werewolves, 9 demons, 1 djinn, 1 god, 1 rakshasa, 1 rawhead, 1 shtriga, 1 wendigo, and 1 zombie.

For this episode = 4 humans and 7 demons.

* FauxAffablyEvil: All the demons, but perhaps most notably Envy, are this in droves, acting very chummy with their victims and with the hunters as they threaten/manipulate/kill them.

* FauxAffablyEvil: Envy is this in droves.

* BadGuyBar: The Sins like to hang out together at a local bar that is frequented by them and them alone. Wrath, who lays claim to it as his bar, especially hates it when hunters pay their unwelcome visits. Too bad Isaac and Tamara don't realize any of this until it's too late, which results in Isaac suffering a gruesome death. FridgeHorror comes into play when one considers [[CruelAndUnusualDeath what the Sins would do]] to ordinary citizens coming in.

* BlackEyesOfEvil: Despite their special status as the embodiment of sin, the Sins all have the standard black demon eyes. All seven flash them at Tamara and Isaac at the bar to [[OhCrap make the couple realize]] that everyone other than them in the bar is possessed by a demon.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The blonde telling Sam that she's "the girl who just saved your ass" after charging in with her demon-killing knife. We later find out that that's pretty par the course with [[spoiler:Ruby]].

* FauxAffablyEvil: Envy.

* BadGuyBar: Too bad Isaac and Tamara don't realize it until it's too late.

For this episode = [[spoiler:4 humans and 7 demons.]]

** Tamara counts by default as a female hunter. She proves to be pretty formidable when she's angry when she [[spoiler:attacks and overpowers Wrath itself, keeping it pinned down long enough for Bobby to exorcise later that night]].
** The blonde may or may not be a hunter (it's a little unclear at this point, though she seems to be one) but she is definitely not someone you want to pick a fight with unless you want a knife in your throat. Dean jokes that she fights even better than Sam, as she [[spoiler:takes on and kills three powerful demons in under a minute]].

* [[spoiler:BadGuyBar: Too bad Isaac and Tamara don't realize it until it's too late.]]

* DeadPersonImpersonation: [[spoiler:Wrath possesses Isaac's corpse to mess with Tamara]].

* [[spoiler:DeusExMachina: The mysterious blonde shows up to save Sam's ass from getting choked to death.]]
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:Did that girl just kill the {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s of Pride, Gluttony, and Greed?]]
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Isaac]]. The family found as rotted corpses might also be an example: they sat down in front of the TV and just never bothered to get up again, eventually dying of starvation and dehydration when they had a fully-stocked kitchen in the next room.
* DynamicEntry: [[spoiler:The blonde woman bursts in, slashes demon throats, banters with Sam, and walks out]].
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The blonde telling Sam that she's "the girl who just saved your ass" after [[spoiler:charging in with her demon-killing knife]]. We later find out that that's pretty par the course with [[spoiler:Ruby]].
* EvilLaugh: All of the Sins start laughing wildly when [[spoiler:Isaac kills himself]]. It's pretty disturbing to watch.
* EvilIsSexy: InUniverse: Lust. It's her job.

* ForcedToWatch: The Sins hold a helpless, screaming [[spoiler:Tamara]] still as [[spoiler:she watches her MindRaped husband chug drain cleaner and cough up his liquefied organs]].
* HeyItsThatGuy: Tamara is Lisa (Ianto's girlfriend) from ''Series/{{Torchwood}}''.

* MysteriousStranger: The blonde girl, who appears briefly when she starts following Sam around and vanishes into thin air when he turns to see who's behind him. She also [[spoiler:arrives and saves him in the episode climax]]. Adding to the mystery is that she knows who Sam is even though ''he'' doesn't know who ''she'' is, that [[spoiler:demons recognize her, and that she has a knife that can kill demons--and she knows how to use it, as demonstrated when she kills three of the SevenDeadlySins]].

* ShapeshifterGuiltTrip: [[spoiler:Wrath possessing Isaac gives one to Tamara when he blamed her for their daughter's death]].

* StalkerWithACrush[=/=]StalkerWithoutACrush: The blonde girl secretly follows Sam on the sidewalk [[spoiler:and to the house they're fighting the demons at]], taking care to get out of sight when he sense someone tailing him and turns around to check. Whether she has any feelings for him is not touched upon.

For this episode = [[spoiler:4 humans and 7 demons.]]

* BoyishShortHair: Tamara's do is a lot more sensible for ass-kicking than some of the other ladies' on the show.

* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Isaac]]. The family the hunters find as rotted corpses might also be an example: they sat down in front of the TV and never bothered to get up again, eventually dying of starvation when they had a fully-stocked kitchen over in the next room.

* EvilLaugh: All of the sins start laughing wildly when [[spoiler:Isaac kills himself]]. It's pretty disturbing to watch.
* EvilIsSexy: Lust.
* {{Fanservice}}: Dean's shirtless scene at the beginning of the episode. It was definitely FanDisservice for Sam, though.
* ForcedToWatch: The sins hold a helpless, screaming [[spoiler:Tamara]] still as [[spoiler:she watches her MindRaped husband chug drain cleaner and cough up his liquefied organs]].
