Oh show! You know what I like and you decide to give it to me all at once. 'What do I like?', you might ask?
WELL LET ME TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT.
CROWLEY! TWO CROWLEYS! Mark Sheppard is even more awesome when there's two of him. I don't actually beieve he's dead-things are *never* that easy with him, and how many times did he fake out the brothers just this episode? But nice callback to earlier this season with the bones.
MEG! My favorite fictional molester, creeping on everyone, puppies and rainbows for all! She's fun evil, and so long as she stays evil (and fun!) I'll still like her. The strategically-placesd straps were a bit . . much and gave be Ruby flashbacks, but it didn't seem to last as long. Smart and awesome!
CAS! Oh god, this episode was all Cas fanservice, all the time. And I am not complaining. Going toe to toe with Sam! (which okay, was kind of hilarious because of the height difference. . . Misha was really craning his neck there, but the delivery was shivery and amazing). Having soulful conversations with Dean! Watching porn! (I'm not supposed to talk about it, hee). Being a BAMF-can you get us what we need? No? Goodbye then. If Cas were a super villain, he wouldn't bother giving a monologue, he has not patience for them. Using his new porn knowledge for BAMF-ness! Which leads us to. . .
CAS/MEG: Okay, that was hot. And the perfect reaction-not getting Meg the satisfaction of riling him up or disgusting him, but not caring either. And still kind of not getting it.
DEAN! You're making sense this episode! Especially with the having a point about the stupid sacrificing family trait. So far, we have:
Mary sacrificed herself for John
John sacrificed himself for Dean
Dean sacrificed himself for Sam
Sam tried to sacrifice himself for Dean but that didn't quite work out.
The other Samuel sacrificing himself for Mary . . .
And that's all we know about I'm sure Deanna sold her soul to protect her second cousin somewhere along the line. Makes me wonder if demons specifically go after angel vessels to specifically corrupt them. Or maybe it's just a hunter thing.
Also! Thanking Cas for his hard work and offering to help! Not giving up on his brother! Being Dean!
SAM: One of the reasons why I like Robo!Sam it's sort of like Darryl in the Walking Dead-half of the conflict of the episode is wondering if he's just going to end the plot early because he just doesn't care about anyone else's feelings, and it opens up a full range of badass reactions to him. But. . . okay, the devil's trap scene. How the hell did he manage to get that on the ceiling without being woozy? And wasn't he saying about five minutes before that there was a lot of shit (or blood, or other offal) on the floor? Why didn't he just use that? It'd have been easier. But still, Robo!Sam, you are growing on me more and more every episode.
ROLLERDERBY REFERENCE: uh, yes. I'm just that easy.

Dean admitting the sacrificing thing is a real problem was such a good moment. It was probably coming, seeing as he didn't try to resurrect Sam either, but it was good to hear him actually say that. Though he said this while working for a demon to save his brother and somehow, now that Sam's physically around, I doubt Dean'll be able to hold on to this no-sacrificing rule.
I like Robo!Sam because he makes sense. Why would he want a soul back after all the bad things that he's expecting to happen when he does? Also, it doesn't really look like he has lost all emotions. Sometimes he cares too much for it to be him just pretending.
Oh god, this episode was all Cas fanservice, all the time. And I am not complaining.
I'm not complaining either. He had the whole death-threats/I-need-your-help scene with Sam, several special moments with Dean, made out with Meg and saved the day. CAAAAASSSSSS!

I was kind of surprised that Robo!Sam didn't call the thing off earlier than he did-and am wondering about the emotions he does have.
