*wails*
Yeah, this is the Dean's-grief episode I'd been looking for. Or one of them, anyway. And yet I find I have nothing to say. It's all too close. Except that last scene? Killed me. The pulling off on the side of the road, and Dean apologizing, and the look on his face as he says, "Now tell me, Sam, what could you possibly say to that make all right?" Ohhh! *wails some more*

And the trend continues: Dean gets character development, Sam gets plot. I'm not complaining on the Dean end of the story; he's got enough going on with him already and plot would just clutter things. (Yanno, like with Spike and the brainwashing in S7.) I wouldn't mind getting to know Sam a bit better underneath, though.
I find myself rather liking Andy, despite his habit of using his abilities to get whatever he wants. I think it's largely because what he wants just isn't very much. And also because he finishes off his mind-control spiel with "These are not the droids you're looking for," because how can you not love that? Also, "I have an evil twin?"
And he has Sam's phone number, so maybe we'll hear from him again.
Also that was a great bit when he gets Dean to spill his guts, and with a smile. Yikes. When you can't get your characters to talk any other way, apply magic. (Or song.) Tried and true tactic. The boys are going to have to deal with that unwilling confession of Dean's, sooner or later.
I would like to point out to Sam that if everybody can be pushed into killing, then he has no more or less to fear than anyone else the demon might target.
Aaand we tell Ellen all about everything. Good, probably; we're in need of allies. This lone hero business is a very fragile existence without some backup. (With Ash just a phone call away, I wonder if we'll ever see Sam with a laptop again?)
Two very solid episodes. *nod*
