Supernatural Answers ComingEric Kripke, creator and executive producer of The CW's horror series Supernatural, told SCI FI Wire that season two will end with a final episode that will wrap things up and answer a lot of questions, unlike the previous season's cliffhanger finale. Among the questions that will be answered: What's the deal with Sam's destiny? What's the deal with the yellow-eyed demon? And will we see Sam and Dean's dad one last time?
"Everyone has started to accuse me of always giving cliffhangers," Kripke said in an interview at the Television Critics Association winter press tour in Pasadena, Calif., last week. "[There was a] big cliffhanger at the end of season one, [a] big cliffhanger going into the hiatus, and I said, 'All right, well, if everyone assumes I'm going to give cliffhangers, I'm going to surprise them at the end of ... season [two] by not giving a cliffhanger, but [rather] giving a huge, climactic resolution that they're not expecting.' So we're doing that this season."
Which is not to say that the finale will resolve all issues for the demon-hunting brothers Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles). "The story is by no means over," Kripke said. "There's major issues that still need to be resolved. But we're giving a climactic season finale that we think is going to feel epic and pretty exciting. We think the fans should be pretty stoked to see what's coming."
Kripke said that the remainder of the season will be balanced between stand-alone stories and episodes that further the mythology of the series, leading to a spectacular conclusion in the finale. "Episode 14 will be a huge mythology episode," he said. "And then I think we go back to self-enclosed for actually a little while to get ready for the big finale showdown. And then episodes like we did similar to last year—episodes 20, 21 and 22— ... a major sort of epic storyline to kind of wrap up the season. ... You know where the mythology goes, and you know what endpoints you want to be."
Regular viewers of the show will be rewarded in the end as all the story threads from the season are brought together. "It's always sort of a sleight of hand when you look at all the elements you've created throughout the season, and you bring them all together in a way that's satisfying to the audience," Kripke said. "And for what it's worth, we feel we've done that. We take all the different strands—between the cops that are after them, the roadhouse, Ellen, Sam's destiny—and we feel we found a way to tie them all together in a way that'll be very surprising and shocking to the audience."
