Tropes appearing in this episode:
- Body Horror
- Fire-Forged Friends: Cole gains a new respect for the brothers, and especially Dean, who he had always hated for killing his father.
- Impairment Shot: The teaser is made up of blurry shots and darkness because Rick Willis' victim is hanging upside down while he exsanguinates her.
- Orifice Invasion: How the Khan worms pass from victim to victim.
- So Last Season: Unlike the Khan worms from "And Then There Were None", these aren't vulnerable to electrocution.
