- Dean & Sam investigating a series of teen girls murdered or disappeared; the latest victim is a vampire fan.
- Sam lets Dean get turned into a vampire, presumably, as Samuel guesses, so that he can lead him to the vampire nest.
- They find an old cure ... drinking the (boiled?) blood of the vampire that turned you.
- Gender & sexuality politics
- Dean, flipping thru a book that is a "national bestseller" about a teen girl and a vampire -- a clear allusion to Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, as is the title -- describes the cover: "Look at this: He's watching her sleep. How is that not rapey?"
- Dean is repeatedly uncomfortable with gay men / male queerness in this episode.
