9.06 Initial reaction is... Not particularly reactive?

So, I'm not sure how I feel about this one. Usually after I watch an episode, my reaction is either "OMG, can't wait to watch that again" or "Yeah, I think I'm gonna rewatch a good one just to cleanse my palate." This one was just... "Huh. Okay." I guess it got some things moving, so that's a good thing.

( Believe it or not, it's just meeeee... (good/annoying things, scenes from the writer's room, unanswered questions, color meta!) )

The Zeke situation

Show went to a lot of trouble to remind us of the Zeke situation during the "Then," but didn't really address it in the episode itself. I guess they just wanted us to not forget? There was a subtle nod, when Dean didn't want Sam to accompany him on his trip. I assumed he was going to talk to Cas about Zeke. Honestly, it took me way too long to figure out that it's simply that he still needs to keep Sam and Cas apart because he's told them different stories (Also, Sam, if you're so worried about Cas, pick up the damn phone. Jeez.). When we saw Sam on the phone near the end, he was facing away from the camera and there was a blue light on his face - I expected this to be Zeke-related, but I guess it was just the light from his phone. But why not show Sam's face? Anyone else find that odd?

OMG, guys, what if Crowley knows Sam's been touched by an angel, and he didn't want angel blood???

As always, I am unspoiled for next week. I don't even know the episode title. Please don't spoil me!!! :-)
