...Bobby's panic room in the real world, where the unconscious Ginormotron lies sprawled on the cot with a worried Dean hovering over him, repeatedly calling out his name. The tedious tableau almost instantly vanishes into this episode's first CHOMP!-less commercial break, and I don't know about you, but I don't think I can take much more of this crap. "You sure you don't want a cocktail?!" I'll fall asleep, dude. "Your loss! [Slurp!]" I hate you, Raoul. "Hee!"
Panic Room. Aftermath. The Rolling Stones' "Play With Fire" strums softly in the background as Bobby joins Dean, and during the increasingly loud conversation that follows, it becomes clear that Castiel ripped apart that wall Capital-D Death had erected to separate Sam's mind from his soul, or whatever. Thus, you know, Real Sam's catatonia at the moment. Dean orders Bobby to find My Devious Baboo, now, and with that, we plunge back down into The Ginormotron's freakish Cro-Magnon skull to find...
...Mildly Amnesiac Sam tooling through the night in the wounded Impala with the barmaid at his side. "Play With Fire" is coming through on Metallicar's radio, just so you know, and Mildly Amnesiac Sam realizes to his surprise that he can smell whiskey, but the barmaid urges him to focus. "Who shot at us?" she demands. "I didn't really get a good look," Mildly Amnesiac Sam LIES. Good to know some things never change no matter where he is. Apropos of, oh, everything, the barmaid's growing increasingly agitated, and she orders Mildly Amnesiac Sam to turn the car around and head back to whatever nowhere burg they just came from. Mildly Amnesiac Sam argues that they'll both be safe, and as The Stones amp up on the radio, we shoot back to...
...the real world, where Dean flashes a penlight in Catatonic Sam's eyes.
Down in The Ginormotron's freakish Cro-Magnon skull, the sudden flash of light temporarily blinds Mildly Amnesiac Sam, and he stomps on the brakes to find that night has quite unexpectedly turned to day. He switches off the engine and hops out of the car to rage at the sky while the barmaid again attempts to bail, but Mildly Amnesiac Sam's ears prick up at the sound of forest noises emanating from the actual forest now surrounding them, so he orders her back in the car for her own safety. She warily complies, and he trots off to examine the contents of Metallicar's bottomless trunk, eventually selecting a sawed-off pump-action shotgun for himself, and with that, he tippy-toes off into the woods.
