Sam gets an Email from a college friend telling him that her brother is accused of murdering his girlfriend. Sam asks Dean to look into that case but reluctant Dean doesn't think it is their problem yet Sam insists. They later discover it's a shape shifter that can take the form of any person as well as their memories. Dean is framed for attempted murder but they could kill the shifter while he is taking Dean's form so he is presumed dead.
A very important episode since it has its effect on later ones, like Dean's problems with the law which haunts him for some time. We also notice Dean necklace which here seems important to him.
There are some very good things about this episode:
1- Dean arguing with Sam about having friends and having to lie to them. The Anti-social Dean who has never had friends before or even a long-term relationship does not like being so attached to people because he knows that he might lose them and he learned the hard way (as we will know later) that it hurts.
2- I like that they always argue about the jobs they take "Is it our kind of thing or is it not".
3- Sam finding out that the shape shifter took the shape of his brother which shows that they actually know each other pretty well (but it disappoints me that Dean failed to do the same in season 5 in the body swap episode).
4- The scene with the shape shifter where he talks about Dean abandonment issues and his fear of people leaving him and his loneliness.(But in my opinion he was lying about Dean's resentment of Sam because if Dean values any body in the world that would be his little Sammy)
5- Does every creature in the world know that Sam's neck is his weakness? Dose he walk around with a sign stating "Hey my neck is my Achilles heal"?!
6- I really wish that Sam listened to the shape shifter and he appreciated Dean a little more.
7- Dean even in the hardest situations handles things with sarcasm and humour.
8- Sam confused about his life, he wishes that someday he can go back to college and have the normal he always wanted but at the same time he confesses to Dean that deep down he never really fit in it and that he knows that he is a freak.
9- Dean telling Sam that they are both freaks and that he knows that and that their lives is not easy but promises Sam that he is sticking around.
The twists in this episode were good with a breathtaking beginning. The acting and the stunts are getting better.
The scene where the shape shifter was shedding skin was really disgusting. But overall is was good.
