Dean gets a glimpse into how life would be if the demon had never killed his mother and if the Winchesters hadn't devoted their lives to killing the evil that walks the Earth. In this life, Sam is in law school and engaged to Jessica, his mother is alive, and he is leading a normal life. However, when a strange woman begins following him around and tells him that each of the people that Dean has saved has died, Dean has to decide if he wants to stay in this life or return to his life of hunting.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Professor: Son? You been drinking?
Dean: Everybody keeps asking me that. But, uh, no. | Dean: Bitch.
Sam: What are you calling me a bitch for?
Dean: You're supposed to say "jerk."
Sam: What?
Dean: Never mind. | Sam: I thought it was supposed to be a fantasy.
Dean: It wasn't. If Mom never died, you and me would've never gone hunting and you and me, you know.
Sam: Yeah. Well, I'm glad we did. | Dean: (to his father's grave) Why? Why is it my job to save these people? Why do I have to be some kind of hero? What about us? Mom's not supposed to live? Sammy's not supposed to get married? Why do we have to sacrifice everything, Dad? | Sam: You're having some kind of psychotic breakdown.
Dean: I wish. | Dean: You had Jess. Mom was gonna have grandkids.
Sam: Yeah, but Dean, it wasn't real.
Dean: I know, but I wanted to stay. | Dean: The Djinn, it attacked me.
Sam: The gin? You were drinking gin?
Dean: No, ass-hat, the Djinn, the scary creature, remember? | Carmen: What do you say later we get you a cheeseburger?
Dean: Oh God yes. How’d I end up with such a cool chick?
Carmen: I just got low standards. | Dean: That lawn looks like it could use some mowing.
Mary: You want to mow the lawn?
Dean: Are you kidding me? I'd love to mow the lawn.
Mary: Knock yourself out. You'd think you've never mowed a lawn in your life. | Dean: Let me ask you a question. When you put me into bed when I was little, what did you always tell me?
Mary: Dean, I don't understand.
Dean: Just answer the question.
Mary: I told you angels were watching over you.
Dean: I don't believe it. |

Episode Title: What Is and What Should Never Be
"What Is and What Should Never Be" is the title of a Led Zeppelin song. | Dean: Well, we're not in Kansas anymore.
Dean is quoting a line from the 1939 movie, The Wizard of Oz. | Dean: My God, Barbara Eden was hot, wasn’t she? And way hotter then that Bewitched chick.
