Quotes

Sam: Is that a hickey?

Dean: And? It was Valentines's Day. I can't help it if I'm a hopeless romantic.
Sam: You got half of that right.

Dean: Just doing my civic duty, helping all the single ladies. You know the best thing about February 14th? You don't have to be Mr. Right, just Mr. Right Now.
Dean: Well, that blows. But if her name is not Amara, how's that us?

Sam: Because her heart was ripped out.
Dean: On Valentine's Day?
Sam: Yeah.

Dean: Is that like an ironic werewolf?
Dean: It was Dan who stole the nanny cam.
Sam: Why...? He was schtupping the sitter.
Dean: I need a beer, regroup, maybe get lucky.

Sam: Didn't you just get lucky.
Dean: That was in Kansas. What do you say, you with me? Go scrape a few hearts off the barroom floor?

Sam: I think I'll pass. I'm gonna hit the lore, but you go be you.
Sam: So the curse is transmittable?
Dean: Like a magic STD. Okay, that works. Kinda makes you nostalgic for good old fashioned herpes.

Trivia & References

"Love Hurts" is a reference to the song of the same name by The Everly Brothers, which was most famously covered by Scottish hard rock band Nazareth in 1975. "Love Hurts" was also previously used on the show in episode 6.14 Mannequin 3: The Reckoning, which was also written by Eric Charmelo & Nicole Snyder.
The plot of the episode has a lot in common with that of the 2014 horror film It Follows. which tells the story of a curse that passed through sexual transmission. The entity "It" will pursue the victims of the curse at a walking pace, sometimes taking on the appearance of loved ones, before killing them. The only way to keep "It" at bay is by passing on the curse to someone else through sex.
A copy of Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill can be seen on the coffee table as Staci goes to sit and watch TV.
The shows Staci channel surfs through include Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell (episode "True Love Will Find You"), Neon Joe, Werewolf Hunter (episode "Bark Bark Yum Yum") and Rick and Morty (episode "Rick Potion #9"). All the episodes revolve around the concept of love.
Dean: Yeah, and what'd you do judgey? Curl up in your Snuggie, watch 'Fifty Shades' on Cable?
Dean uses the alias "Agent Weller"
Dean: Well, step aside Urkel.
Sam: Shapeshifter.

Dean: Yahtzee.

Dean: Hey, any luck?

Sam: No. You?
Dean: No. Hey, what's a-ah 'dad bod?'

Dean: Riddle me this. Why did Staci die first if she was kissed second?
Dean: Listen to me, Sonja is not just anyone. She is a wicked witch who offed your husband and tried to kill you. So if she shows up here, you punch or you stab her or you drop a freaking house on her if you have to.
