Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The feeling is mutual. (But you have to imagine Teri Garr saying it in Young Frankenstein.)

Has anyone else seen the speculation about the meaning of Sam's bandaged hand?
People on Tumblr are going wild about how it was cut on broken glass from the bottle of purgatory blood, and how it stayed bandaged through the whole episode even though weeks passed. And how that must MEAN SOMETHING!
My gut reaction is they forgot the time period of the episode was weeks, and forgot about the bandage. What else would it mean?

Pieces of glass got worked far enough under the skin that they're still emerging painfully weeks later? A friend of mine had that happen (substitute months for weeks) when she accidentally put her hand through a glass door.
Also, substantial abrasions heal quite a bit more slowly than clean cuts, in my experience.

See, there you go!
The wild fen all seem to think it has some Dire Meaning, and Sam now has angel and virgin and demon blood in the mix, and maybe that's what caused his hallucinations, and and and ...
I'm not buying it.
In unrelated news (When the Levee Breaks is on TNT now), blood-drinking Sam was stupidly hot.

In addition to the bandage, there was a close up of his hand being cut by the glass. Just to make sure you knew exactly what happened. I kidna think there is something there that will come up later.

During the later part of the episode the thought did occur to me that they picked the hallucinating blood junkie to go retrieve the leftover jar of irreplaceable Lovecraftean monster blood they needed to save Cas and the world. And that they might have wanted to spend a little more time thinking about the best strategic division of labor beforehand.

Is he a junkie? Or a guy with a past habit? He's shown absolutely no urge to drink blood unless he's under supernatural effect or it's a means to an end for a long time now. There's been no temptation outside of MBV since he kicked it.

I guess they did focus on it, but ... I'm tired of the Sam/blood OTP. Did that. I'm over it.
I don't think Sam would be tempted to drink it ever again, willingly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I would much rather the hallucinations are Sam's brain trying to cope with remembering being in the cage than some kind of blood magic. Personally. Show doesn't always do what I want, though.
