True. Plus, it is easier for them to act as brothers if they do treat each other as such in real life.

Dead in the water is such a creepy episode. I love watching it. Like you guys are discussing, the brother chemistry was insane. I can't believe they sparked like that from the Pilot. This episode has so many funny moments between them, but also the sad unspoken moment when Dean is talking about Mary to Lucas and Sam looks on and has this expression like, "Aw, Dean."

It's so great.

Amy Acker is great here as she always is.

Ya it is insane how fast they got their chemistry.

Ya I love Amy Acker in this!

Their chemistry is second to none. Even on the episodes where the story isn't as good (I don't mean Dead in the Water, as I like this one), I don't care, as long as there's plenty of interplay between Sam and Dean.

Amy was awesome. I'm not sure what else she's been in, but I was really impressed with her in this.

I'm happy that we all love this episode.

Next episode then girls...

Does it have to be from Season 1? If not, I was thinking of 2.14 - Born Under a Bad Sign.

**Shnicky** · 06-30-2009, 12:45 PM

It doesn't have to be from Season 1. Sure, we can do BUaBs.

I'll get the gist.

Born Under A Bad Sign (Season 2, Episode 14)

After Sam goes missing for over a week, Dean finally receives a phone call from his brother. Dean finds Sam in a hotel room, covered in blood and suffering from the effects of a week long memory blackout. Upon investigation, the brothers find a video-tape of Sam killing another hunter in cold blood, which leads Sam to believe his dark side is taking over. When the dark side finally emerges Sam attacks Dean and continues on his hunter killing spree with his next targets being family friends Jo Harvelle and Bobby Singer.

Original Air date: 8 February 2007

This is one of my favourite Sam episodes. I loved the way he played the 'Meg demon', at first pretending to Dean that he was still just Sam. When he begged Dean to kill him, oh, gawd, I was in tears. Also, later, the way he got all the demon's mannerisms and everything was just astonishing. I could just imagine the demon in Meg behaving the same way. The scenes with Jo were so uncomfortable to watch, too, and when he smashed her head against the bar, it still gets me! He was so convincing and scary, just awesome.

I love how Sam was so... Meg-ish.

The scene where he begs Dean to kill him had me crying too, Julie.

**Shnicky** · 07-03-2009, 10:12 AM

This episode killed me too much!

Jared totally rocked the house. he was FANTASTIC playing the evil!Meg. The mannerisms and the hotness combined, just made me in awe.

I also do love how the scenes were executed. Starting from Dean finding Sam with all the blood. The surveillance video and how Dean wanted to just smash everything up. I love protective!Dean.

oh and the wouldn't mess up this fine packaging was the best quote ever.

Manhandling Jo was also great.

**Shnicky** · 07-06-2009, 06:36 PM

New episode time!

Anique · 07-08-2009, 06:52 AM

any suggestions anyone?

Indeed, Jared's acting was great.

protective!Dean =

poor guy was totally losing it.

hell yeah.

**Shnicky** · 07-08-2009, 02:52 PM

How about another Season 4 episode?

This Dean is what I wanted. Protective!Dean and he's not giving up on Sammy.

**ROCKSTAR** · 07-09-2009, 03:40 AM

All I remember after watching BUABS was me going like this

for hours after the episode had ended.

That episode rocked it and JP playing evil like that was disturbing and incredibly effective. The man is a wonderful performer. What he did with Nicky's mannerisms was a thing of beauty.

it's an option.

"Sam, when Dad told me I might have to kill you, it was only if I couldn’t save you. Now if it’s the last thing I do, I’m gonna save you."
