BENNY! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I get that he wanted to go back, that for him it was the best move...but my gosh that scene between him and Dean just broke my heart! I cried! The one person that has never betrayed Dean in the slightest, and Dean has to kill him. I loved that they left the door open for Benny. Hopefully he can make a come back some day!

Bobby!! Pissed that we didn't get any Dean/Bobby scenes though.

Kevin...I don't care.

Naomi? Yeah still don't trust her.

And thus continues the story of another character bleeding in the mud for the Winchesters...this must be the never-ending story...poor Benny...and poor Kevin...

Here's hoping Sam and Dean have got a plan and will fix things without anymore people having to bite the dust

felt like going throughh another washer-dryer. We had Benny, just to see him die and we had Dean facing Naomi just so she could play with him.

I love this episode sooo much!!!

Starting with the best parts - TWO HUGS in ONE episode and I can not tell you which one I love more. I am so glad that finally Sam and Bobby had their moments together. In the past it was almost always Dean who got the emotional scenes with Bobby. So I confess that I was very happy that Dean had to stay away from hell. It was so moving and touching when Bobby realised that it was the real Sam.
And then of course the brother hug. It remembered me of the season two hug. Dean was back then and now so glad to see Sam alive. And then the talk afterwards broke my heart for both of them. Sam was really sorry for Benny and Dean that he had stayed in Purgatory and Dean was truly heartbroken that he lost his friend for good.

Which lead me to Crowley what a bastard. I can´t help myself but I really love him - in a love to hate him kind of way - most of the time. He is such a great villian better then the mother of all crap or the laughable Dick Roman.
It is such a pleasure and joy to watch Mark Sheppard play this cool bastard.

Which lead me to another joyful character. Bobby how much I missed you I just realised during this episode. Jim Beaver was fantastic as always. His balls and his confusion/frustation what had happened after he left the boys was so great to watch.

As I said before the two hugs were the best part but close on the second place is the goodbye between Benny and Dean. I was not such a big fan of Benny but I am really glad that he didn´t turn out as a bad guy but stayed true to his loyalty to Dean and helped him rescue his little brother. My heart became very heavy between their little talk before Benny went back.

Naomi I don´t trust her at all. She is only helping the Winchesters because she hopes they will lead her to Cas and the Angel tablet. She wouldn´t have cared for Bobby at all if it wasn´t to prove her point that she would be trustworthy which made her even less trustworthy in my eyes. But I am still happy that she did it. For Bobbys sake and to see that look in Crowleys face.

Kevin - I don´t know what to think about him and I will leave it at that. Just that maybe Dean wasn´t so helpful with his comments about that it will never stop and that he has to suck it up. He meant well but I guess that that wasn´t something Kev wanted to hear.

It may have not had a big reveal or lots of action but the emotions in this were topnotch and really touched me deeply.

Bee I was feeling the exact same way! I cried as well. I just couldn't believe it!

I was SOOOO happy to see Bobby again! I couldn't believe Crowley was keeping him in hell. I wish Dean would have been able to see him as well!

As far as Naomi? She lied to Dean the whole time she was talking to him. I hope he doesn't believe her.

Only things I got from the ep are:

Benny is finally gone. hated his character.

Bobby/Sam shared scenes. Finally they get some focus. Normally its all about Dean/Bobby relationship.

Sam/Dean hugged.

Other than that.

I thought demons were suppose to be big tough guys. And the cross eyed demon breaks under how much torture? Least he know a death by the Winchesters is better than a death by Crowley.
