De-lurking to say I agree with your assessment on the ep. I agree that Jensen sold some of the Dean things that didn't sit well. I didn't have the problems with the Dean and Susie hookup that I've seen others pointing out on tumblr and such. I think I was more bothered about how he was totally left out of the fight with Vesta and just popped up and asked what he missed when it was all over like everything Dean did that episode was for comic relief.

I am having a lot of problems with this season in general and not nearly as invested as I would like to be. I didn't even watch this ep until over the weekend. I am dreading whatever cliffhanger is coming tomorrow though.
