meg_tdjYummy. Brown. Jacket. Of. AWESOMENESS. I'm afraid I have trouble concentrating on anything else at times in this episode.
Poor depressed Bobby. Driven to the extreme of trying to win back his youth just to get out of that chair. And I love that Dean didn't hesitate to risk his life to save him. But man, watching Bobby break down and talk about killing himself was downright traumatic. Thank goodness for Dean's speech at the end, about how little he and Sam have left, and that he can't do without Bobby. Later on we find out that that speech is all that keeps Bobby from offing himself in the days ahead. Awww!
I notice it was Sam this time who said they won't live to be old. Considering he got back in with Ruby because he wanted it all to be over so he could grow old gracefully, this was quite a turn-around. Perhaps he no longer WANTS to live to be old? Wouldn't want to carry the weight of his guilt longer than necessary, I guess.
I have to admit, I kind of liked Patrick. And they didn't kill him! He's still out there somewhere, stealing (well, winning) years from people. I didn't really care about his companion's drama, but him I liked.
Chad Everett... you know, he actually kinda looked the part once he was in Dean's clothes. And he obviously studied Jensen, because some of the moves he made and the way he said certain lines were very good imitations. I really enjoyed the Grumpy Old Men banter with Bobby, and the way he treated Sam like he was actually 50 years older than him, LOL. It was cute.
Again with Dean's heart. Stop with the bacon cheeseburgers already, dude!!
I found it a little hard to believe that a cushy hotel like that would only have one elevator, and it would just happen to be out of service that day. Makes me wonder if that was one of Patrick's tricks somehow.
Poor Sam getting the clap. They sure enjoyed making that a recurring theme through the rest of the season. :P
Another call-back to Dean agreeing to an equal partnership... Dean and Bobby at first put their respective feet down when Sam wanted to play, but I think it was only because they honestly felt that he couldn't win. Once it was part of a larger plan, they let him go. And I love that they made it look like he'd snuck off by himself to do it, then later revealed that he was there for the DNA and was just as freaked out about losing as Dean and Bobby were.
But here's the thing - Sam is the world's greatest liar. Dean is good at reading people's tells while Sam kind of isn't, but the problem there was that Patrick didn't HAVE any tells. He'd had 900 years to get rid of them! But while Dean and Bobby tend to carry their emotions on their sleeves when the going gets rough, Sam gets hardened, tough, and his senses are heightened by emotion rather than clouded. The only way to win that game was to bluff, and bluffing is what Sam does best. Him and his Method acting, LOL. I love that he nodded when Patrick called it that. Sam so totally took drama in college. ;)
Also, I noticed that Patrick tried to prey on Sam's "little brother" complex, but it didn't work. Because that's what he and Dean had been working on fixing. Love it.
Patrick was honestly impressed when Sam won, and he seemed earnest when he put Dean back to rights "with pleasure." I like that guy! I almost hope they run into him again.
Randomness -
*I found everyone's old-Dean comparisons rather interesting - Dean said he looked like the old chick in Titanic (where did THAT come from??), Sam said Emperor Palpatine, and Bobby said John McCain. Haha!
*This was the last episode we had with Dean's ring. *moment of silence* I always wonder, did Chad Everett take it as a souvenir or something? :P
*Dean loves Jack Nicholson so much that he even watched The Bucket List. ;)
Quotes -
Doc: You expect me to believe you're CDC?
Sam: Excuse me?
Doc: It's just that you're a day early. First time in history I haven't sat on my ass waiting for you people.
Dean: New administration. "Change you can believe in."
Doc: Right.
Bobby: Well, I'm just weepin' in my Haagen-Dazs. Idjit.
Cliff: It was a game.
Sam: Like... Xbox?
Cliff: What's Xbox?
Dean: My friend Ben told me you'd know.
Bartender: Don't know any Ben.
Dean: Sure you do. You know, balding, smartass, real ladies' man.
Bartender: Listen, pal. I told you I don't know any Ben. I don't know nothing about a game.
Dean: You sure? Cause, uh.. *slips him $100 bill* He sure seems to know you.
Dean: Bobby! What the hell are you doing here?
Bobby: Plantin' daisies. What's it look like? Came in on the case.
Dean: And you beat me here?
Bobby: Well, brains trumps legs, apparently.
Patrick: Look, I don't know what it is you think I did to your wife or girlfriend, mother or sister, but uh... I just want you to know, my feelings were real.
Sam: You look like...
Old!Dean: Old chick in Titanic, I know. Shut up.
Sam: I was gonna say Emperor Palpatine.
Old!Dean: Bobby's an idiot, that's what happened.
Bobby: Hey, nobody asked you to play.
Old!Dean: Right, I should've just let you die.
Bobby: And for damn sure nobody asked you to lose!
Sam: *smiling* It's like Grumpy Old Men.
Old!Dean & Bobby: Shut up, Sam!
Old!Dean: Oh! Gonna have a heart attack!
Bobby: No, you're not.
Old!Dean: What is it?
Bobby: Acid reflux. Guys your age can't digest certain foods. You're gonna need to put down that cheeseburger.
Old!Dean: Benjamin Buttons me back into burger shape.
Maid: Ready for housekeeping, sir?
Old!Dean: *leans on doorframe, smiles* Born ready.
Maid: *laughs* You're just like my grandfather. He hits on anything that moves, too. You're adorable.
Old!Dean: And dangerous.
Maid: Aww! *laughs*
Sam: It's like Mission: Pathetic. Watch out. *shoves Dean aside*
Old!Dean: Dude. I believe that he-witch gave you the clap.
Old!Dean: Sammy, when you get to be our age...
Sam: You're 30, Dean!
Bobby: Less flappin' and more diggin'.
Old!Dean: Ow! God! My elbows! I'm all creaky.
Bobby: Hurry up, you crybaby.
Old!Dean: Pound it up your ass, Ironsides.
Bobby: One little grave.
Old!Dean: Then you do it!
Bobby: Fine, I'll hop right in.
Old!Dean: At least your legs are numb.
Bobby: Shut up and dig, Grandma.
Old!Dean: You know, Bobby, killing you is officially on my bucket list.
Sam: Does this armchair psychology routine usually work for you?
Patrick: *laughs* You tell me. You're the one who's losing.
Bobby: Strap on your track shoes.
Old!Dean: Oh, goodie. More stairs.
Old!Dean: It's too damn clean in here. First witch I ever heard of didn't spew bodily fluids all over the place.
Sam: You're crying. For a witch you're so nice, that's actually kinda creepy.
Patrick: Well played. You know, that whole... going out of your head bit... very Method.
Sam: *nods*
Patrick: Well, there's more to you than meets the eye. *raises glass*
Sam: Cash these in for Dean, please.
Patrick: With pleasure.
Bobby: No tricks. You actually beat the guy?
Sam: *shrugs*
Bobby: How the hell?
Sam: Just lucky.
Sam: Hey, I'll see y'all guys later.
Dean: Where you going?
Sam: Uh, nowhere. *pause* A booster shot. *raises finger* Don't say it.
Dean: I shouldn't have called you an idiot.
Bobby: Which time?
Bobby: Don't you go on pity patrol.
Dean: I'm not. I'm not, I'm just... I'm saying, you know, if I was in your shoes...
Bobby: You'd never stop complaining.
Dean: Fair enough.
Dean: You don't stop being a soldier 'cause you got wounded in battle. Okay? No matter what shape you're in, bottom line is, you're family. Now, I don't know if you've noticed, but me and Sam, we don't have much left. I can't do this without you. I can't. So don't you dare think about checkin' out. I don't wanna hear that again.
Bobby: Okay.
Dean: Okay. Good.
Bobby: Thanks. Now, we done feelin' our feelin's? Cause I'd like to get out of this room before we both start growin' lady parts.
Dean: Yeah, we're done.
Dean: Let's go, Ironsides.
Bobby: Oh, that one's stickin', huh?

Best part of this episode, though? The acknowledgement of Bobby as their father-figure and the only family they have left. Really, though ::squishes him:: Poor Bobby! They are all just so broken this season.

Awwwww, I know!! It was so sweet to hear Dean say that, and so earnestly, too. :)
They are all just so broken this season.
Yup, it's not just Winchester angst anymore. Bobby and Cas decided to get in on it this season, too. :(
