This is in my top three favorite episodes of the entire series! Enough said!

Okay, fine, I'll say more.

This one asks us several Big Questions and is as vague as Death about the answers. What is a soul even? Who is Sam without his and was existing without his soul *really* living? Or really *Sam*? And what's the larger point of season 6 as a whole? Because yes it really is all about the souls -- souls as a source of power but at what cost? Oh the humanity, etc. And getting a peek at the Larger Cosmic Order and what it means to keep it in balance, as well as what happens when that starts to break down and chaos and destruction ensue... all important concepts in later seasons (Cosmic Consequences!).
