I will be happy to do that! Ryan Grantham is in two Supernatural episodes, playing different characters (which happened a lot). His second character in the season 11 opener doesn’t even get a name.

His *first* character, however, is an extremely memorable minor character in the delightful fourth season crack episode “Wishful Thinking,” the episode with the suicidal teddy bear that prompted the line “On Thursdays, we’re teddy bear doctors” (which I have on a license plate frame on my car, lol). The premise of the episode is that ordinary people are getting wishes granted from a magical coin in a Chinese restaurant. Grantham is Todd, an ~8-year-old who vanquishes his bullies with his wished-for super strength and yells “Kneel before Todd!” So, his character is pretty awesome and I’m pretty sure I’ve seen a gif of that line on Facebook.

The episode is number 8 of season 4 and is on Netflix if you want to check it out. You don’t need to know anything about the mytharc to understand it—there’s only one tiny bit of mytharc stuff at the very end. (I do have to give an emetophobe content warning for one scene near the middle, though.)
