Summary:

Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) call upon their family friend and fellow hunter Bobby (guest star Jim Beaver) for help after they are stumped by violent and unexplainable happenings on a local college campus.

Bobby arrives with a suspicion as to the culprit behind the killing spree and the brothers' escalating feud.

John Shiban wrote the episode directed by Brad May.

From what I've read in spoilers this episode is this show's take on "Bad Blood" (X-Files, season five)...a lot of things implied that the episode will tell each brother's POV like that episode. Hmmm.

But my TV is completely shot now and I can't watch until The CW posts it tomorrow online. BOO. DAMMIT. WHORE.

At least you have a connection that allows you to watch online :p

LOVED the montage at the beginning of Sam and Dean calling each other "bitch" and stuff. We need to find that online somewhere and put it on the site lol

The Dean-Sam scene in the motel was HIGHlarious. But not as HIGHlarious as the bar scene. Anyone think this episode was designed to dispel those "the show is all about Sam" rumors?

OMG the Aliens! "They made me...slow dance."

Dean: "Still don't make a lick a sense. But hey, at least there's one connection."
Sam: "Between what?"
Dean: "The victims. The professor, and the, uh, frat guy. They're both dicks."

Weird, but funny, ep :D

The video you're talking about will most likely be on YouTube in a few days, lol. If not I'm sure you could go to IMDb and request that someone put that segment up. :)

Glad you liked this episode, it sounds funny, I can't wait to watch. I'm *really* tempted to call in sick tomorrow...if I did I could watch it. :)

This was actually really good, funny. I was shocked how funny it was, lol. I'd say it was as good as any of the X-Files comedic episodes. It worked because it was so deadpan, low-key for the most part.

The guy slow dancing with the "probing" alien, heh....

I loved this episode, had me in fits of the giggles. I loved the different POV's especially when Dean had Sam come out with the 'blah blah blah' and when he hugged that guy.

With all the serious episodes we have had previously its good to see one that lightens things up a bit.

Finally saw it, was great. My favorite part was when Dean said "How could it get any worse? Some alien made you its bitch." And the looks on Sam and Dean's face when the frat guy said he was probed.

I also loved how Dean's version of things always made Sam so feminine and everything, especially at first, before he was saying "blah blah blah"...

All in all a pretty good episode. A nice break from the otherwise pretty heavy season.

I laughed my ass off at that. Dean's version of Sam was so funny!!

This was a light, refreshing episode and very fun to watch!

*LOL* This episode was really great fun. And the X-Files 'Bad Blood' Episode popped straight to mind for me as soon as they got going. It actually possessed me to pull out my X-Files DVDs and watched that episode like a half dozen times in a row. Loved that ep. And Supernatural did their little POV story just as well, I think. I watched it the first time on tape at like one am and had to like cover my mouth to keep from waking the house up with my laughing. *L*

I loved when Dean was telling his side and he had Sam hugging that guy and saying all that pansy stuff about how precious he was. I was laughing so hard.

I'm not positive what they were, just called them that I think cause of the chipmunk cheeks *L*... now I have to watch the episode again *L*

okay, watched and still not sure what they were, my screen isn't big enough or it never got close enough. Nuts, cookies, candies, something. *L* But it was funny to see Dean with his mouth full of them. :)
