Episode Quotes
Meg Masters: Well, I’ve lied... a lot. I’ve stolen. I’ve lusted. And the other day I met this man--a nice guy, you know? And we had a really good chat... sort of like this. Then I slit his throat and ripped his heart out through his chest. (her eyes turn demon-black) Does that make me a bad person?
John Winchester: This ends... now. I'm ending it. I don't care what it takes.
Layla: Hi, is there anything I can do for you?
Dean: Oh God, yes.

John Winchester: All right, something like this starts happening to your brother, you pick up the phone and you call me.
Dean: Call you? Are you kiddin' me? Dad, I called you from Lawrence. All right? Sam called you when I was dying. Gettin' you on the phone, I got a better chance of winning the lottery.

Dean: Whoa, whoa, whoa! You kiddin' me?
Sam: What?
Dean: Don't say "just in case something happens to you," I don't wanna hear that freakin' speech, man. Nobody's dying tonight. Not us, not that family, nobody. Except that demon. That evil son of a bitch ain't gettin' any older than tonight, you understand me?

Meg: (to her assistant) You shot me! I can't believe you just shot me!
Meg Masters: You're dead, John. Your boys are dead.
John Winchester: I never used the gun, how could I know it wouldn't work?
Meg Masters: I am so not in the mood for this, I've just been shot!
John Winchester: Well, then, I guess you're lucky the gun wasn't real.
Meg Masters: That's funny, John. We're gonna strip the skin from your bones, but that was funny.

Dean: Sam, I wanna waste it. I do, okay? But it's not worth dying over!
Sam: What?
Dean: I mean it! If hunting this demon means you getting yourself killed, then I hope we never find the damn thing!
Sam: What?
Dean: I mean it! If hunting this demon means you getting yourself killed, then I hope we never find the damn thing!
Dean: You said yourself once, that no matter what we do, they're gone and they're never coming back.
Sam: Don't you say that, not you, not after all this, don't you say that!
Dean: Sam, look. The three of us, that's all we have. And it's all I have. Sometimes I feel like I'm barely holding it together, man. And without you or Dad...

Episode Goofs
As the Winchesters arrive in Salvation, Iowa, there is a sign that says, "Are you ready for Judgement Day? - JW 2:27". However, there is no such book of the Bible, or any such Bible verse in any other book.
When John gets out of his truck after driving down the interstate near the beginning of the episode, when he gets out, his hair is already wet despite it being the first time he's stepped out into the rain.
When John learns that Sam has been having visions, he's surprised to learn his son has extrasensory perception. However, in "Home," Missouri Moseley told John that Sam had powerful extrasensory abilities.
John says that there are only four bullets left for the Colt. However, in the previous episode, "Dead Man's Blood," there were seven and then John used one to kill the head vampire, Luther. Two bullets have disappeared without explanation.

The name Mary-Ann Liu appears on the birth certificate that Sam examines. This is a possible shout-out to Vancouver artist Mary-Ann Liu, but has never been confirmed. Her name previously appeared in "Scarecrow" on Sam's cell-phone.
