Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Oh, VICTOR. God, Plei will be crushed.

Ruby is not gentle with the "I told you so," is she? Damn. Dean's face. And Sam's! Oh, BOYS. Oh, NANCY.

Is it April yet?

Oh damn. Waste of a perfectly good fed.

And virgin. I liked Nancy.

There's nothing to say that Lilith wouldn't have shown up and killed everyone anyway if they'd gone along with Ruby's plan. In fact, the one certain difference between the two is that the way things actually went down, Ruby herself survived. Assuming she was on the level about what her spell would do.

Amy, I don't know if you watched, but your girlcrush from AI is safe for this week.

Thank you, Sail! Hee.

Yeah, it's still hard to tell if Ruby's being completely straight with them.

I think I do believe that, for whatever reason, her own benefit or Sam's, that Ruby does want Sam to survive. So I think that she did want him to live through the siege tonight.

I'm wondering if she knew Lilith was in range of the spell and it would have killed her, too. If so, she should have made that clearer, although I think Dean and Sam would have still chosen to do what they did.

There's also the small possibility that no one actually died in the explosion? That there's some other shenanigans afoot?

Well, if they were going by actual remains, it would have to be something shady, wouldn't it? Because obviously there are no remains for our boys.

This is true. I tend to associate blinding white light with teleportation and dimensional travel rather than explosions. Also, possibly with naked actors falling from the ceiling.
