OMG, that was the best episode ever, i can't believe that Sam is supposably dead, there's no way he will die because then how could there be a third season, i mean come on there will be a third season, well there better be other wise i'm going after Kripke. Even though i live in the UK and he is in the USA. I'll find a way!!! Lol

Anyways back to the episode - Can't believe Mary knew about the YED, i mean that was so weird, but then again everything is weird. I was crying at the end, it was so emotional with Dean holding Sam and him dieing in his arm, and then him shouting Sam's name

But i gotta say excellent acting by both Jensen & Jared, this has got to be one of my faviourite episodes and i'm sure next week will be better, roll on season 3

FYI Kripke, season 3 PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

I will love you forever - but don't think I'm weird or anything like that i just don't have a life other than watching TV!!!moreless

Season finales are always the best, and this part one of a two part finale does not disappoint at all! It opens up with an intriguing start; Sam gets kidnapped and finds himself in the middle of nowhere with power users he's met throughout the second season. And one by one they slowly die off by a demon. The set up played out extremely well that had us guessing what exactly was going on; are the ability users being gathered up? Why are they dying? And then with the demon visiting Sam in his dreams it takes a turn in the road. The betrayal of Ava, Jake playing into the demon's plans, the emotion, the superb acting, the unexpected events, it all just built up so extremely well into...Sam's death. A tragic ending but this being the second last episode, it just makes us even more curious what the real ending has instored for us.moreless

In part one of season twos finale Sam is taken to a isolated and abandoned town with all the other special children. Ava is there and we also meet Jake.

Jake has super strength and he came from the war. Just went to sleep half way across the world and woke up there. Ava seems to think she has only just got there too but Sam tells her she has been missing for months.

Dean on the other hand is now with Bobby and looking for Sam. They go to see Ash because he calls and when they get there the bar is blown up and Ash is dead. The only survivor is Ellen.

Dean gets a vision from that guy that I can't remember his name but he is awsome! He sends Dean a vision on a bell with the tree on it. Bobby figures out what it is and where to go.

Back to Sam and they have already lost a girl. Hanged.

Sam arms Jake and the rest with wepons to protect them from spirits. Sam figures out that it's Ava doing all the killing and creating the ghost girl. Ava dies, I think Jake kills her. Then suddenly it's down to Sam and Jake (oh and by the way they have both been visited by the YED) and there is a fight in which it looks like Sam has won. Then Dean and Bobby show up and Jake comes up behind Sam and stabs him in the back. Sammy dies....
Dean catches him before he hits the ground...
Bobby runs off after Jake.moreless

Supernatural Season 2 Episode 21 All Hell Breaks Loose Part 1
Sam disappears and reappears in a lonely town where other "special children" where gathered by Azazel, a.k.a Yellow Eyed Demon, to fight and find out who will open the devil's gate.

This episode, and the second part of it, are certainly the best Supernatural Season Finale until now. This and the next episode where so full of action, suspense, and drama! At the end Sam dies and now Dean will have to sacrifice his soul to bring him back. The plot is amazing, the battle between the special children and the devil's gate, and the colt gone... all of this is so amazing! The best Season Finale!moreless

Not the best supernatural episode but is pretty close. Sam is taken be the yellow-eyed demon and placed in a ghost town along with the other physic kids (ever noticed that physic is only spelled with one c but is pronounced si-Kik). Sam stays calm, cool and collective along with this dude from the army who could bench 800 but he wasnt like big that was just his physic ability which is kinda weird bcuz that doesnt seem physic at all but the other three physics (you've seen two of them in previous episodes, Danny and Eva i think sry). The other girl (apparently lesb0) kills people by touching them. The yellow-eyed demon only wants one of the physics and of course he doesn't have an obstacle course and picks the physic who had the fastest time. He makes them kill each other til there is one left. Great episode with a L0TS of suprises. Barely better than part 2.moreless

- At the diner, Dean looks out the back door and it's pouring rain out. However, when he goes out the front door a few seconds later, the rain has slowed to a very light drizzle. Edit
- At the very start, when Sam wakes up in the ghost town, there is a visible church-wouldn't it be sensible to automatically seek refuge there? Edit
- At the start of the episode, Dean is waiting in the car for Sam when the Yellow-Eyed Demon comes and gets Sam. The radio starts to flutter in and out which in countless past episodes has been a sign that there is a supernatural presence close. Why would he tap on the radio trying fix it? Edit
