Personal thoughts pertaining to this episode under the cut...
This episode blended quite a few of my favorite subjects together - those subjects of course being: magicians, tragedy, heartache, angst, darkness and friendship. There was also a little bit of slash thrown in for good measure. In a word, this episode was fantastic. Well, except for the "douchebag" part. I swear to God... If I hear that word one more damn time, I'm going to slap a bitch.
My favorites:
♠ "Oh, you haven't been had until you've been had by the Chief."
This had me in tears I was laughing so hard. Then, Dean went back to talk with Charlie and Vernon - the two men responsible for sending him to the wrong address - and Charlie asked Dean rather sarcastically if whether or not Chief was his type. Needless to say that the reply in my head was "Of course not, you fool... He likes angels in trenchcoats with striking blue eyes, and hair that's worthy of worship. What the fuck are you talking about? Seriously..."
♠ The exchange between the brothers concerning whether or not they'll survive.
I'm with Dean on this one. Stories such as these never have a happy ending, or as Dean put it: "It always ends bloody or sad."
That entire conversation hit something deep inside me - something which successfully reminded me why I love this series so damn much. It's both dark and tragic, with an underlying theme of hope.
Personally, I don't think these boys are going to make it through all of this. Then again, the Kripkeeper may very well pull a fast one on me.
♠ "He offered me a gift, and I threw it back in his face. How is that right?"
This scene was brilliant because it made the brothers think about the concept of "the right thing." Was Jay killing his best friend really the right thing to do, even if it did save the lives of the Winchesters? How could the betrayal of someone whom you held dear be considered the right course of action?
All of those thoughts flooded my head after that scene took place. And the part where Sam got in the car with Ruby left me thinking: "Maybe this is the right course of action as well..." Because Sam wants his brother to survive, to have a normal life. Which is something Sam wants as well. And considering everything these boys have sacrificed for the sake of the greater good, I don't think that's too much to ask for.
Kripke & Company... I tip my hat to you guys. I thoroughly enjoyed this one, and I now considered it to be one of my personal favorites from the current season.

It was indeed. And Jensen's facial expressions were just simply priceless. xD
But I'm not comfortable with him using his power. IDK. It's all sketchy (powers,Ruby) I don't know what's gonna happen and it could end terribly.
I must admit that I'm feeling rather uneasy about the whole thing. I know that Sam has the best intentions at heart, but this could very well lead to his downfall.
I just can't see them living normal apple pie lives. After all they've seen and been through. It just doesn't fit. IDK, I mean I want my boys to be happy, but I just can't see that happening.
Exactly. These two boys were raised to be warriors. Those types almost always die on the battlefield. But like

My thoughts and fears exactly. I just don't think I could handle seeing that. I'm a dork.

OH MY BOYS!

I've got a MAJOR soft-spot for Sam, so for me, it would be like watching a trainwreck. It is indeed horrific, but you just can't bring yourself to look away from it.
What
Agreed. But it would be a fitting end to our boys. Although, I'll admit to the fact that I would spend the following months crying while cursing Kripke. There's also a distinct possibility that I wouldn't be able to watch the series over again without breaking into tears.
