Yes to everything you say about the Trickster (though I didn't notice the plot holes--I NEVER notice plot holes on first watching unless they're gigantic), but on the other hand, I do like the way the story is blurring the lines between other pantheons and the big God/Angels/Demons thing. An AWOL God and "angel-on-angel violence" are satisfyingly Big-Religion-bashing enough to ease my discomfort with the religious aspects of the show.
The degree to which SPN hates women and girls, however, continues to astonish me, almost to the point of thinking about considering not watching it anymore. There's an example in every ep, and in this one it was the tie between bad television and menopause, all rolled into an unquestioned insult to a manly young white man.

Aaargh. I hate that I love this show so much.
