Grrr. That reminds me I still need to watch last week's online since my TiVo decided to stop recording 15 minutes into last week's episode!

I wish they'd just make Bobby a full fledged cast member. He's got to be one of my favorite characters.

Can't wait! This season has started off really well and I hope tonight continues that streak.

Good episode. Nice that they got the Colt working again. And I wonder what are they building up to with Sam's story?

I don't know why the colt all of a sudden wasn't working. Dean used the last bullet in the season finale last year. The only thing they need to figure out was how to make the demon killing bullets, but Ruby came along and helped Bobby with that.

The way I understood it was the bullets and the gun were made together by Colt as a demon killer (actually "anything" killer). Since they were out of the special bullets, I think Bobby was taking the gun itself apart to try to figure out how it worked differently from a regular gun. Once Bobby could figure the special gun itself out, then he possibly would be able to work backwards and also figure out how to make the special bullets as well. (But then "Good" Hot Demon Girl came along and saved him all that effort.)

Perhaps making him do progressively awful things to tarnish his soul in a quest to free his brother, in the end becoming so twisted as to lead the demon hordes. At least that's my guess as to demon chick's evil plan.

Maybe she's helping to eliminate the other demons so she could be in charge of the army?

I liked this episode. I wish they had moved the first part along a little faster and had most of the episode be Dean and the trapped demon. I'm still not clear on what their demon mythos is.

I think they were trying to suggest that the demon chick was Lucifer with her final line "a little fallen angel on your shoulder".

I strongly agree. My guess is the big reveal will be that the devil is...the demon woman and she's trying to corrupt Sam. It wouldn't surprise me either if the writers try to have some romantic entanglement between them eventually.

Yeah, good ep.

While I won't disagree with the thought that she's trying to subtly corrupt Sam, my initial thinking is that she's trying to "thin the herd" a little. Reinforced by the tale about how killing yellow-eyes turned a good plan into chaos. So now there's chaos and maybe all the demons are fighting each other too to be the one in charge. So she's got hunters that she helps out who in turn help her thin out the demon ranks a bit.

I'd like to see her (Sasha Barrese) in a Wonder Woman costume, she could fill the bill in terms of casting that part.

Me too. Bobby's the hero for the regular guy(gal) - proving you don't have to be a model-beautiful 20-something with abs of steel to kick demon butt

Though I think this show works best with the dynamic of just the 2 brothers being in every episode. If they ever drop that and go to a full-fledged monster hunting team, that'll probably be a "jump the shark" moment for the show.
