Why tf did Sam open that motel room door and *observe with his eyes*. I mean wtf did he think he was gonna see? Sound travels through doors, Sam. You could’ve just called and left him a voice mail. Or did you think he was gonna be demurely under the covers with the doublemint twins? Truly sad, Sammy.
Oh, and this episode also sets up the Main Problems of s3:
Who was that masked chick? (Ruby!)
Wait, there’s a kind of knife that can KILL DEMONS?! (thanks again Ruby!)
What the hell did they (read: Azazel) let out of Hell?
and can Sam save Dean from going to Hell at the end of the year? (lol, nope)
Things referenced in this episode:
The Superwiki page for this episode
A post I wrote in June 2019 summing up how I see s3 (after rewatching 3.01 and 3.02, so this is also relevant to next week’s episode, but the first few paragraphs do a nice job of setting a baseline for Dean’s character arc this season, and going forward in general)
LuckyMojo.com, the site referenced in Kripke’s notes on set dressing in the casting sides for Isaac
Casting Sides for Isaac (with the agonizingly incomplete conversation between Sam and Dean, for which this is all we have at the top of page 5 of these sides):
“Dean thinks on this for a beat. This means more to him than he lets on... maybe Sam is cured of his dark destiny...
DEAN: That’s good. (then) Impeccable sense of timing there, Sammy, but still, it’s good.”
BUT WHAT WAS GOOD?! WHAAAAATTTTT I BEG OF ANYONE WHO HAS A COPY OF THIS FULL SCRIPT *clears throat and straightens rended garments*
