I also need to point out that I watched these episodes nearly 2 months ago and I'm only just getting round to writing up this blog entry. Season 3 will be different I promise! Regular viewings and regular blog updates.
As will hopefully become the tradition, I was yet again joined by Leanne to watch these final episodes. When Leanne comments on how different the Winchester brothers look in the early episodes it makes it hit home about how far I have left to go!

So let's see how well my memories hold up. Well first of all Sam is kidnapped by the yellow eyed demon. (Remember him? Not seen him for a while but he's still round and about!). He is taken to a deserted town along with other people who have gifts like Sam. They are set against each other so that ultimately one of them will emerge as the ultimate warrior to be used by the yellow eyed demon. Meanwhile Dean is trying to find where Sam has been taken.
The first episode ends with Dean arriving in the town just in time to see Sam being stabbed to death by Jake, the only other survivor of the demon's "chosen ones". Unfortunately it seems in this case Dean has arrived just after the nick of time. What the hell is a nick of time anyway!?
Dean summons the crossroad demon in order to make a deal for Sam's life. She strikes a hard bargain and only gives Dean another year to live if he wishes to bring his brother back to life. He agrees to this. I sense next season's story arc starting!
Meanwhile Jake has been instructed by the yellow eyed demon to reach a cemetery and open up a portal to hell...I think. This bit is all a bit hazy. The demon couldn't do this himself due to protection placed around the area and that is why he has been selecting potential candidates to do this on his behalf. I hope I'm mis-remembering that because after following this guy for two seasons then it seems a fairly lame resolution as to what his overall scheme was.
With all hell breaking loose (literally!) Dean and Sam's father appears out of hell and distracts the demon long enough for Dean to fire the magic Colt pistol and kill him.

In fact I have just looked the episode up and reminded myself that Ellen was also in this episode and Ash was killed! I remember that part now because they found his body in the burned down bar and I remember thinking that Ash had turned to ash and amusing myself greatly!
So that's the end of the yellow eyed demon I expect. Never say never I suppose but I don't really expect to see him again.
The shit hits the fan when Sam discovers what Dean has done to save him. He didn't realise he has been dead, just that he'd blacked out. I think I've had hangovers like that.
Speaking of hangovers, after finishing the episode, myself and Leanne headed into town to meet Sally and Andy for a meal out for my birthday which was awesome. It makes me realise just how late this blog entry is!
The end of the second season! I finally made it. There will now be a short break (hopefully not too long!) and then season 3 will commence!
