I mean, look at Frank now.

That was my thought when Frank was giving the advice. This is where that road leads, do you actually want to go there? OTOH, where else is he gonna go, he probably doesn't see a lot of options.

Oh, god, I hadn't thought about Sheriff Mills.

it's *right there*. Whatever. I love it.

I spend way too much time staring at it, considering the rest of his face.

OTOH, where else is he gonna go, he probably doesn't see a lot of options.

At least it's something to do, and it doesn't involve honesty.

I like that he stated his reasons for not checking out are onefold. Samfold. I love you, man.

I'm now cranking The Who to get rid of the "Dear Mr. Fantasy" earworm (I still love you, little Stevie Winwood!).

Not that "The Song Is Over" is a particularly upbeat way to change songs.

OTH, I am revelling in "Dear Mr. Fantasy."

Also, the brunette vendatta thingy, Sally, was Meghan Ory, who played Rachel in The Berrisford Agenda ep of Dark Angel. She's on Once Upon a Time these days as Ruby the diner waitress, who's Red Riding Hood in another life.

Oh! THAT'S why she looked familiar!

Someone on IO9 suggested the $15K came from selling the Impala.

That's so wrong, for so many reasons. I'm not saying the car has to make it to the end of the season (ALTHOUGH IT DOES), but I can't see any way they'd sell it offscreen and not point it out and the boys' reaction to its permanent loss.

Where do you think the money came from? Hustling pool or cards? Credit card something (although they've been told to stop that)? Theft? Bobby?

As much as I'd like to imagine a down-on-his-luck Dean having to resort to hustling of a different sort to pay the bills, we saw that Bobby had a sizable amount of gold on hand last season and the fire that torched his place would have just melted that down, not rendered it worthless.

I think the dragon's gold is supposed to be lasting for quite a while. Bobby mentioned it before he died, too, so he obviously had some left.

Posting this mostly because of JA's smirky smile in the last frame, but also because when did Bobby screw Dean over? Never, as far as I can tell. And the way this is set up, the interviewer obviously means something that happened before Cas's betrayal, so he's not talking about Bobby's death.

Maybe the whole "Bobby not telling Dean Sam was alive" thing? Dean was pretty pissed about that.

Dean is so broken, but for him to attempt to follow Frank's advice -- it gives me hope for Dean.

"Here’s my advice you didn’t ask for: Quit. You want to keep going? You’re going to drive yourself into the ground first. Do what I did when I was 26 and I came home to find my wife and two kids gutted on the floor: Decide to be fine ‘til the end of the week. Make yourself smile because you’re alive and that’s your job. Then do it again the next week. I call it being professional. Do it right, with a smile, or don’t do it."

Love this. I believe Adam Glass is doing wonderful things with Show these days.
