Way to Slay: Winchesters' Monster-Fighting Technique Sam Could've Totally Used
With long hair and some holy water, no one can stand in your way.
Warning: The following article contains spoilers for The Winchesters episode 9
Many fans of The Winchesters agree that Carlos is probably the most iconic character the Supernatural universe could ever introduce in the prequel. This guy slays, and not just when it comes to monsters.
In episode 9, titled Cast Your Fate to the Wind, Carlos offers a brand new way to use whatever you have around as a weapon. In his case, it was... his hair, which he doused with holy water and then showed the monsters some moves, sprinkling the holy water all around.
If anything, this TV universe has never seen a holy water flip before. And that's exactly what fans can't wrap their heads around.
"Aww too bad Sam never did the holy water in the hair trick, Dean may have found his hair length useful," Twitter user cdambrosio79 said.
According to many people, the holy water hair flip was the "peak" of The Winchesters, and virtually nothing could top it. Others, however, have noted a major problem with the spectacular trick. Holy water on the hair may be show-stopping, but Carlos was fighting vampires, not demons.
"I loved Carlos doing the holy water hair flip, but... holy water was never a Supernatural vampire weakness... or am I having a major memory melt???" Twitter user TrinityMB pointed out.
On Supernatural, vampires are usually killed by chopping off their heads and impaling them on a stake. But it looks like The Winchesters could not care less. Carlos had a job to do: go out there, kill some vampires, and look good doing it. The rest is history.
The new episode of The Winchesters will premiere on February 7th on The CW.
