Supernatural decides to take us on a crazy ride back to the wild west where Sam and Dean have to go to the year 1861 to get phoenix ash that can kill the Mother of All.
The episode was hilarious and the directing and writing were great. Jensen as always was great portraying Dean's childish giddiness and excitement as he goes on his fantasy tour back in time and his disappointment when everything turned out not being as cool as the movies. It's always good to see Dean having fun again doing a job.
Sam too had the chance to meet his hunter idol Samuel Colt and lecture him about life as a hunter, showing a great level of maturity. There couldn't have been anyone better for the role of Samuel Colt more than Sam Hennings. I also appreciated the care for details as Dean dropped the colt and didn't take it with him because otherwise he would have changed the whole course of events.
We got the chance to know a little bit more about the war in Heaven and the power of the souls. I loved that Bobby didn't think twice when he jeopardized his own life to bring the boys back to the present time. And I liked that Cas chose Bobby's house as refuge when he needed a safe place to hide.
Finally, I felt so sad about the Phoenix but I guess he had to die anyway to use his ashes to kill the Mother.
