Storyline

Sam is shocked when Dean finally tells him their dad asked him to watch over Sam to save him, or if that fails kill him. Sam leaves alone to let Ash look up a same-type clairvoyant demonic victim. Ava Wilson, from Peoria, Indiana, fits that bill and looks up Sam to warn she saw his death, then leaves ridiculing him. Dean followed Sam, just in time to intervene when crazy Gordon Walker turns up, who will stop at nothing to destroy 'utterly evil' Sam. It's a testing fight for the brothers.

Trivia

In an extended scene, viewable on the DVD but cut from the final episode, just before Sam asks Ash for help finding other psychics, Ash is unsuccessfully hitting on a woman. As she walks away from him, he yells to her back, "Gimme some sugar, baby!" This is a much-loved line from Army of Darkness, in which it is also spoken by a demon-hunting character named Ash.

Quotes

Dean Winchester: Come on man. I know Sam, ok? Better than anyone. He's got more of a conscience than i do. I mean the guy feels guilty searching the internet for porn.

Save or Kill: The Dilemma of Dean

Dean finally tells Sam the last words of John Winchester before dying, and opens his heart about his dilemma and feelings. Sam leaves Dean during the night and travels alone seeking answers with Ellen and Ash in the Harvelle's Bar. When he finds that another psychic was stabbed in a parking lot in Illinois, he decides to investigate his death. Meanwhile, in Peoria, the young woman Ava Wilson has a premonition with the death of Sam and meets him in the motel of her dream where Sam is lodged. Meanwhile Ellen tells Dean where his brother is, while Sam is hunted by Gordon.

In this excellent episode, it is disclosed what John told to Dean about Sam and his dilemma and feelings; further, it seems that a demon war is coming and Sam and other psychics will fight on the demon side. Ava Wilson is introduced and I hope to have the chance to see this character again. The despicable Gordon returns but is duly framed by Sam. My vote is nine.
