Sam Smith is post-baby and nursing. Her face is fuller, and her middle is a little wider than it was in the pilot. She's aged a few years since then, too. But that was Mom.
Aha! I was trying to decide if it was bad botox or pregnancy/baby puffy.
(That distracted me, until I decided I could handwave for hallucination.)
Bobby still has another week to die!
Loved that each boy is being used and twisted here, and while neither completely trusts the side that's twisting, neither distrusts them enough, because they don't trust each other.
As for Dean... Dean spent 10 of his years in Hell turning into something he wasn't. I think trying to stop what he thinks will happen to Sam has a hell of a lot to do with that.
Wow, that was Sam Smith? Just the delivery felt different to me.
When Katie was Ruby, she would have played that like "Gee, that's really too bad you and your brother aren't all huggy these days. I'm heartbroken. Yeah, that's the ticket." polishes fingernails
And then ordered french fries. I miss that continuity. The potatuity.
... Now I want fries. Bother.
Or maybe Ruby is the oldest demon. We know she used to be human, after all.
That was Sam Smith. I saw her in the credits! And it was her nose, unmistakable.
When was this filmed? Couple months ago? When'd she have the baby? I am too lazy to IMDB.
Is Sam being used by Castiel (and presumably God) to force Dean to his mission? Is that why Cas freed Sam and made it look like a demon did it?

My guess is that her not doing this is intended as an anvil that she is not being honest.

Or is Sam being used to force the apocalypse? Do they want to provoke the Final Battle? Is that what Castiel wanted to warn Dean about?
I do think the side that's giving Castiel his orders is actually pushing for the apocalypse, and I think they've set Dean up as the patsy, him and Castiel both, Dean as the guy to push the final button and Castiel as the being who guides and goads him into doing it. I think Sam is actually trying to stop it, and Ruby may be helping--I don't know why she would be on the side of mankind's continued existence, but I'm leaning toward that motivation for her.
Zacharia and his ilk are tired of humanity's screwups and want to purge the cosmos of us--the questions are, are the angels on the side of God--and is God at home, or has he been deposed, or has he scarpered off under his own will for greener fields elsewhere, leaving his minions to run the store?
Was there a promo for next week? I don't think my dvr got it, if so. I'll give it...14 and a half minutes before it's up on YouTube. If it's not there already.
IMDB has Smith's bio in IMDBPro, and I'm not paying to join. Aldis Hodge is locked away there, too--I can't find out his birth date.
Anyway. She was at the LA? con, or maybe one not long before that one, with Richard Speck, Gabe Tigerman, and Traci Dinwiddie, and mentioned having a baby not long before. She looked fabulous in fan photos of the con, but not racehorse slender the way she looked in her press photos and onscreen, pre-baby.
