Quotes

Dean: I'll tell you what. Why don't I go get some herbal tea.

Sam: Okay.
Dean: And you can find some cowboy junkies on the dial.
Sam: Eat me, Dean.

Dean: And you know what? We'll just talk it out.
Victor: Oh, come on, guys. I know your friends. I mean, Martin was insane. And somebody obviously dropped Garth on his head when he was a baby. And I know you two loved that Bobby guy, but he was a barely functional alcoholic.
Dean: Watch it.
Dean: Yeah, I never trust a guy who wears a sweater.
Dean: Like I said, hunting isn't always about killing.
Krissy: Look, I hate how we were put together, but I can't deny that it feels right. And why should I let Victor ruin that, too?
Krissy: You're all right for an old guy.

Dean: I'm really not that old.

Krissy: You keep telling yourself that.
Dean: There's only one way out of that, and you and I both know it ain't pretty. Maybe they'll be different. Or maybe if we shut that hell hole once and for and all, those three can have a real life.
Sam: Maybe they won't be the only ones.

Dean: Listen, if you want to take a knee on this one if you're not feeling up to it...

Sam: So, what was that all about, G-man?

The Apple Dumpling Gang was the name of a Disney movie, based on a book by the same name, about a gambler in the California goldrush, who ends up with a group of orphans.
Dean: It's just not what I expected.

Krissy: And what was that?
