I'm on the fence about this ep. There were things I loved, and things I was uhm, what? about. I will watch again, I was a little distracted last night. Mostly, what I took away from the ep was, I'm so very sorry for Sam and the life that could have been his. I was surprised at how much I wished he could have had that. And how very, very much I want those stories--so effing much!

What did you guys think of the ep?

I posted on it. Mostly, I feel that their continuity has gone to hell, so even if I quite like what they are feeding me I find it hard to engage with it in a believing way.

I do think it's a good turn for Sam, actually -- he had lingering from childhood, I think, a sense that he couldn't ever be John or Dean, and the only way to deal with that was to get out and try to be something different. And of course that always ends badly because Winchester. But it seems like this bit of the family past offers him the material to go in for a more Sam mode of hunting and feel like he has a niche.
