!Tropes
------

* BedTrick: One survivor of the shapeshifter attacks was a husband who'd moved out because his wife cheated on him, but she genuinely thought she'd been with him and the baby was his.
* BigBad: The Alpha Shapeshifter.
* CurbStompBattle: The Alpha effortlessly kills three hunters.
* GenderBender: "It's a boy. Sometimes."
* EveryoneHasStandards: After an initial sweep of the crime scene, Sam finds nothing supernatural and says they should just leave it. Samuel rebuffs this by pointing out that even if it isn’t a monster, someone is kidnapping babies and doing who-knows-what to them, meaning they should investigate it anyway.
* HalfHumanHybrid
* HesBack: The moment Dean pulls the cover off the Impala, you know he's back in the game.
* NeckSnap: How the Alpha kills Mark Campbell.
* NighInvulnerability: The hunters throw all they can at the Alpha and it simply shakes it off.
* OhCrap
* ParentsForADay
* ShoutOut: To the ''Comicbook/XMen''.
* SadisticChoice: Dean has to choose between staying with Lisa and putting her and Ben in danger or abandoning them to keep them safe, but not being able to see them. [[TakeAThirdOption Lisa suggests he continues fighting with Sam, and go home whenever he gets a chance]].
* WhamShot: The shapeshifter skin in the baby's crib followed immediately by the baby's skin going from white to black.
