10	->'''Dean:''' I mean, at the end of the day, you two were family. Life's short. And ours are shorter than most. What, are we gonna spend it wringing our hands? Something's gonna get us. Eventually. And when my guts get ripped out, just so you two know, we're good. Blanket apology for the crap that anybody's done, all the way around.
11	->'''Sam:''' Some of us pulled a lot of crap, Dean.
12	->'''Dean:''' Well. Clean slate.

26	----
27	!!Tropes:
28
29	* BackForTheDead: Rufus, Samuel, and Gwen all come back after not being seen for several episodes. They all die by the end of the episode.
30	* BadassBoast: "You're all gonna die. She's here. She's pissed. And there's going to be nothing but pain from here on in."
31	* BaitAndSwitch: When Bobby does not wake up, the scene cuts away from Sam's panicked reaction and right to the brothers standing in front of a fresh grave. A few sentences later we learn that Bobby is fine and the grave is that of Rufus.
32	* BoobyTrap
33	* BoundAndGagged[=/=]DuctTapeForEverything
34	* CrazyPrepared: Of course, Bobby has a cranial saw in his trunk.
35	* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Samuel, who is unceremoniously killed off despite being a rather important character. He is shot by Sam and electrocuted by Bobby and, well, that's it.
36	* EarAche[=/=]OrificeInvasion: How the worm infects its victims.
37	* EyeAwaken: Worm!Samuel does it while Bobby and Rufus are cutting his head open.
38	* EvilSoundsDeep: When the worm is speaking through Bobby, it uses a much deeper voice than Bobby's normal voice.
39	* KilledOffForReal: Gwen, Samuel, and Rufus.
40	* HomoeroticSubtext: Loads of this, thanks to all the testosterone flying about. Bobby lampshades it:
41	-->Why don't you three GetARoom?
42	* LayoutOfASeason: The 16th episode of any season is usually pretty dramatic, and often a season game-changer. This one kills off no less than ''three'' recurring hunter characters.
43	* LiteraryAllusionTitle: ''Literature/AndThenThereWereNone'', an Creator/AgathaChristie novel, which [[TropeCodifier popularized the]] TenLittleMurderVictims trope.
44	* LibationForTheDead: With a bottle of Johnny Walker Blue.
45	* MamaBear: Eve describes herself as one.
46	* NoodleIncident: We never find out what exactly went down between Rufus and Bobby in Omaha--the story's interrupted every time. But both Bobby and Rufus hold Bobby responsible.
47	* PuppeteerParasite: The Khan worm.
48	* ThisIsUnforgivable: Rufus tells Bobby he will never forgive him for what happened in Omaha. Dean later says this was wrong, regardless of whatever happened. He and Bobby were a family, much like he, Sam, and Bobby are family and their lives are too short to hold grudges.
49	* ThisAintRocketSurgery
50	* ShockAndAwe: The worm's weakness.
51	* ShoutOut:
52	** The [[Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan Khan]] worm.
53	** The electricity test resembles the blood test in ''Film/TheThing1982'' (electricity was also used to attack the creature [[Literature/WhoGoesThere in the original story]] and ''Film/TheThingFromAnotherWorld'').
