* DreamSue: Dean retells an evening in a bar to Bobby as if he is a romantic Dream Sue, with hints of being a perfect [[TheHunter hunter]] as well. The entire setting is glamorized, and a girl just completely swoons over him and showers him with praise, while he insists that he has to do his "duty" of interviewing her because lifes are at stake. Sam by contrast is turned into a whiny jerk who simply wants to interrupt Dean and his lover, eventually just descending into whining "BlahBlahBlah".

Sam tosses Dean a wooden stake, and Dean stabs the Trickster. The women in lingerie and the man wielding the chainsaw disappear. Sam, Dean, and Bobby take off in the Impala. A figure walks up to the dead body of the Trickster. The body fades away and the camera pulls up to show the figure is the Trickster eating a candy bar.
