It's almost here, y'all! Season 7 starts September 23rd so i thought it would be a great time for a little refresher course on season 6. What went down? Who got ganked? Who survived?
Here is all the important Need To Know shizz in one handy little post:
Episode 1
Dean tries to live a normal non-hunter's life with Lisa and Ben after that whole averting-the-apocalypse-by-Sam-jumping-into-the-box-with-Lucifer-and-Michael thing.
But Sam is alive and out of the box.
Gramps has somehow been resurrected too.
The annoying Campbell cousins are introduced.
Sam wants Dean to return to the family business but Dean doesn't want to abandon Lisa and Ben.
Episode 2

We get to know the Campbell cousins a bit better but we still hate them.
Dean starts to wonder about Sam.
Lisa tells Dean to go hunt monsters with Sam and come back to her when he can. So with Lisa's somewhat blessing, the band has finally been put back together!

The Winchesters go to Scotland to dig up Crowley's bones.
Crowley gives Bobby his soul back and the bros give Crowley his sack o' bones back.
Episode 5
Dean gets caught by a vamp.
Sam sees this and just watches without going to help Dean. Then there's that whole Sam-smirking-as-Dean's-forced-to-drink-vamp-blood thing. And we really start to see that Sam is changed and not for the better.
