Synopsis

Bobby tells Sam and Dean about the numerous reports of monster activity that he's been getting from other hunters. All of the monsters seem to be springing up along I-80, leading to Sandusky, Ohio, where a trucker for Starlight Cannery recently murdered his whole family with a hammer. Bobby, Sam, and Dean go to question the man, but he has no memory of the event. His last memory is of a young woman asking him for a ride at a gas station. They watch the footage from the gas station's security camera, and they see the young woman. Static runs across the screen, obscuring most of her face, but what they can see looks like a monster, and Bobby speculates that they're dealing with the "Mother of All."

Quotes

Bobby: I've been getting blasts from hunters all week. Nest of vamps. Werewolf dance party. Shifters - six of them. Two hunters died taking them out. Ghouls. Ghouls. Ghoul-wraith smorgasbord.
Dean: Well hey there you little herpe

Sam: Why do you keep talking about herpes?

Dean: What? I don't! Shut up!

Trivia & References

The episode title “And Then There Were None” is a reference to a 1939 Agatha Christie crime novel in which ten people who have been involved in the deaths of other people, but have never been found out, are invited to an island. There each of them dies by a method described in a nursery rhyme until they are all dead, although there appears to be no one else on the island.
Dean: It's like a Khan worm on steroids.
The Khan Worm is reminiscent of the Ceti eel from the Star Trek movie The Wrath Of Khan which after entering through the ear, wrapped itself around a person's brain stem making them susceptible to suggestion, and eventually causing madness. It was referenced also in the reboot Star Trek movie in the form of the Centaurian slug which also entered through the ear canal and made people speak the truth.
Dean: it's not in me!
The same line was used by victims of the Croatoan virus in 2.09 Croatoan.
As cremation is not undertaken in the Jewish tradition, Rufus is buried, in what is obviously a Jewish cemetery, rather than given a Hunter's Funeral Pyre. Bobby pours some of Rufus' favourite drink - Johnny Walker Blue Label - on the grave.

Minutiae

Most of the cast and crew - except Jared - suffered from terrible colds during the filming of this episode Jim tweets about the epidemic. Filming took place around the weekend of Salute to Supernatural San Francisco 2011, and Jensen's cold was obvious at the event.
