Quotes

Sully: Someone killed my friend.

Dean: You mean your imaginary imaginary friend?

Sully: First off, 'imaginary friend' is more of a descriptive term, how you just said it, that was a little... offensive, just to be honest. Secondly we're zanna. Me and the victim, we're zanna... We help kids. We're the good guys.
Dean: So Sparkle is a unicorn and also a man?

Linda: Yeah.

Dean: So, a manicorn.
Sully: If I show you all we can see, you can't tell a soul.
Dean: Yeah, 'cause chicks dig the whole 'imaginary friend' thing.
Dean: Oh, oh yeah. That kid is gonna need all the shrinks.

Sam: Wait a second, so his blood is glittery?

Sully: Even when he's dead, Sparkle can't stop shining.
Dean: And a hot shower does wonders.

Sam: Real deep scrub and purify.
Linda: For Maddie?
Dean: The whole family, just get the whole family in there. You know the family that showers together...

Sully: Pull up! Pull up!
Sully: Sam, I want you to listen to me. You can be whatever you want to be. You're not Dean, you're not your dad, you're Sam. And Sam is awesome.
Dean: I gotta ask. Hey, acid wash, what's so special about you?
Weems: Mermaids dig me?
Young Sam: I'm a Winchester. I hunt monsters. Why would I want anything else?
Sully: You know I'm not gonna lie to you. When you went off to hunt, I considered that one of my biggest failures. Just seemed so clear to me that you wanted something else. But, I was wrong. It all worked out, didn't it?

Sam: I don't know about that.

Sully: Come on, you're a hero. Sam, you saved the world. I keep track of my kids, and you did really good, Sam.
Sam: Ever think maybe you're a hero to me? Sully, one thing I've learned, heroes aren't perfect.
Sully: Sometimes they're scared, but that just means the thing they're facing, it's super important, and nobody else is gonna go for it because nobody else has got the balls.
