Storyline

Bobby summons Crowley and finds that the demon has no intention of returning his soul and has given ten additional years of life for him. Meanwhile, Dean and Sam ask Bobby to advise which demon is killing people in Wisconsin, and after a long research, Bobby informs that is a Lamia. Then Rufus knocks on Bobby's door with the corpse of a demon Okami to bury it. However the demon is still alive and Bobby has to seek it out and vanquish the demon. Dean and Sam travel to Scotland and help Bobby to get his soul back. When Bobby is ready to eat a slice of the peach cobbler his next door neighbor Marcy Ward gave to welcome him in the neighborhood, he receives another urgent phone call.

Drag Me To Hell!

Weekend at Bobby's started off a bit misguided, and at first I was skeptical, but as it goes on it proves that it is a great episode, with enough storyline progression and humor.

This if the first episode where we see a glimpse of Bobby's actual life apart from the boys. I actually cannot believe that it took this long, and anyway, here are some very disturbing scenes (the demon execution in Bobby's basement0 and some very funny scenes (the woman). What I loved about the episode was the mention of what I consider to be the best horror film of the last decade- Drag Me To Hell. The first mention of it was in the demon that Sam and Dean were tracking down, the Lamia, and then a conversation between Bobby and the woman who is interested in him. It was a nice homage to the film, and in that element the episode also worked well as comedy.
