Quotes
Sam: We can't just sit around and-and wait for a lead. Plus it'll be nice to get a win. This case seems like a layup.
Rufus: Well, unless you found a way to stop the end of the world during your little siesta... We got jack-all on any of that business. I knew you were in the area, heard about this possible little gig. I thought a win would be nice.
Bobby: Oh, wait. I'm supposed to be your frickin' backup?
Rufus: Yeah. Well, if by backup you mean you do all the heavy lifting while I watch. It's Shabbat.
Bobby: Are you serious?
Rufus: Deadly.
Bobby: You drove over here. Isn't that against the rules?
Bobby: Were you ever nice?
Sam: 'Grand Rapids, Michigan: possible ghost hunt with jackass.' That's all he wrote?
Rufus: Your boys? Hey, hey, alright. Okay, papa bear. But you know more than anyone, Bobby... Even if we find a way to keep the world spinnin', not everyone's gonna be on that bus ride home. Sacrifice, greater good, all that jazz.
Bobby: Yeah, I know.
Bobby: Stay away from me, you son of a bitch.
Bobby: My boys. Both of them. Both of them dead, and I saw... I don't know what the hell I saw.
Rufus: Forget the oldest rule, Bobby.
Bobby: You getting soft on me, Rufus?
Rufus: Soft this.
Sam: My head hurts.
Dean: I saw you, dead on the floor. What?
