It's just I am so caught up in skeeve...
This sums up how I got derailed this episode. It's been good to read the arc speculation (and clarification) because it's lifted the focus for me to a better place.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I did notice someone say that the demon Sam stabbed was the one that looked twice at Dean, the one Dean asked if he wanted to kiss him.
Just tossing it out there.

Because books.
Hey, what did Dean say about Meg's persuasive powers in hell? Was he implying she took over when Alistair was at lunch? I missed that and haven't rewatched yet.
He looked so sick when he said whatever it was, with the memory. JENSEN ACKLES, man. I continue to adore.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

As absolutely skeevy as SPN has been, I don't think soulless Sam gives a damn about teh gay.

I think she said that she studied under Alastair, so she'd be good, right, Dean? Dean? Which made me wonder if they intersected down there either on or off the rack.

He may not want anyone to kiss his brother, though.

Why would he care who leers at Dean though?
I really wonder if something got cut that gave even a vague handwave as to why Sam killed that demon. Especially a demon who, when I was only half watching, looked like Sampa.

Was this someone a Sam/Dean shipper who was therefore wearing the tinfoil hat? You know, "he looked funny at my man and therefore must die?"

Sam has been focussed on two things without his soul, that the theoretically need not have been--hunting and Dean. They have no simple payoff like sex.
I'm not even remotely a Sam/Dean shipper, but if soulless Sam came through all this understanding two things (okay, not understanding two things, just knowing them--Dean and hunt monsters), killing that demon may have been the precise right choice to flex his muscles at the time.
He is a bit dismissive of Lisa, although that's easily read as disdain for emotional ties.

I think he was dismissive of the emotional connection to Lisa. That was something that cold inhibit Dean's hunting. Just some sex wouldn't factor. Hell, Sam's been getting it all over. But, you know, after he looks for Dean in a field, so... It doesn't mess with business.
