I understand what you mean about Mark Pellegrino. I agree that it seems silly to bring back favorites and then do little with them. Bobby is in the next episode, I think, so we'll see if he survives it.

My confusion about the Nick SL also stems from the fact that, like Asmodeus last season, we've been following his SL throughtout the season and its been portrayed as something ominous and then--poof!--it's (seemingly) over. I thought something significant would eventually happen since the archangel-blades-only-kill-the-archangel-and-not-the-human seemed so contrived in the beginning.

I also agree that Mary didn't have reason to complain about Nick's death. She could be concerned about the violence of the death, rather than the death itself, I suppose. What made me smile at that point was that she then sent an obviously violent Jack to a vulnerable, wounded Sam.
