I'm braindead (moreso than usual), how was Weekend at Bobby's hoyay-tastic?
Oops, I'm confusing that with the previous ep, "The Third Man." Even Crowley was oddly subtext-deficient last week.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Because books.

No way! He and Bobby are in LURVE, dude.

Is it possible that "Sam" is really Adam?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Crowley did mention that some of Bobby's contract was on his nether regions, I vaguely remember. And that he hoped the devil's trap wasn't in semen. and something about partying with Bobby. But I only rewatched the first ten.
LeN, Samgirls will SCREAM.

I'd like to give Adam more credit, but also: oooooh. Like, wrong soul, wrong body?
I DKEK wtf is up with Sam. I can't even begin to fathom it. But to go from "I'm cold and heartless and logical and need you to keep me human", which was slightly understandable, to "I am pleased to experiment with your life" is a giant giant leap.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
See, I don't think Sam said anything about Dean keeping him human. He said hunting is better with Dean. That Dean ran to help Sid and (Nancy)--which, yeah, is a human response, but basically results in a better save count than waiting and weighing odds--without a blink, without thinking it through. He didn't say Dean was helping keep him human, he said working with Dean makes him a better hunter. IJS.

Sam says it's better with Dean around, because Dean cares and he doesn't, to loosely paraphrase him.
There's no clear implication about save count.

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
I got from that exchange that Sam believes he is the better hunter - since he didn't waste time and energy by running next door when it was pretty clear that he'd be too late - but that Dean is the better human - because Dean did. The show has always highlighted the fact that sometimes a choice has to be made between hunting things and saving people and that situation illustrated each one's priority. I don't think the current Sam sees saving people as anything other than a possible result of a good hunt.

A thought occurred to me. If the boys tracked down what they thought was a non-human monster who when caught turned out to be a human serial killer, I suspect they would kill him anyway. After all, what they do is kill evil son-of-a-bitches. While what they track down is supernatural, if they were face-to-face with a purely human monster don't think they would turn him or her back into the wild. (Or bother to turn him into the police.)I still have a lot of unwatched episodes. Did this ever happen? (Not counting fic. I just assume ficcers have this covered.)
