Quotes

Hallucifer: Oh well, that's every cell phone Dean's got. One of them should have picked up, right. Big brother's probably dead.

Sam: Shut up.

Hallucifer: He said "shut up" to me.
Dean: He was a psychopath, Sam. That's what they do all the time is act. Act like they're normal. Act like they're not balls to the wall crazy.
Hallucifer: That's what I'm talking about, Sam! Real interaction again, I miss that! The rapier wit - the wittier rape - come on, I'll be good, I'll even help you solve your little Nancy Drew mystery or whatever.
Sam: A demon summoning, why?
Hallucifer: Why? To summon a demon, jackass.
Jeffrey: I was a wreck, an emotional shell, a drunk. I was suicidal.
Dean: I don't usually endorse suicide, but, man, what stopped you?

Trivia & References

The title "Repo Man" refers to the 1984 movie Repo Man starring Emilo Estevez and Harry Dean Stanton about a punk rocker who ends up working for a car repossession agency and getting entangled with a bunch of strange characters and a mystery involving a 1964 Chevy Malibu with dead aliens in its trunk.

Another reference is to the movie Repo Men, which is about collections agents who repossess people's organs in a future reality where people can buy organs, but at a very high price.

Lucifer refers to the woman Jeffrey says will be the next victim as "our demon's next organ donor".
Jeffrey's character may refer to Jeffrey Dahmer, who murdered 17 men and boys between 1978 and 1991. The fact that Jeffrey killed the dog may be a reference to the widely held belief that there is a correlation between animal abuse and serial killers - including the case of Jeffrey Dahmer.
Demon!Jeffrey: Well, if it isn't the Wiccan bitch of the West.
This is a reference to the Wicked Witch of The West from The Wizard of Oz.
The demon possessing Jeffrey temporarily gives Jeffrey control of his body. This happened once before - in 4.22 Lucifer Rising, the demon possessing Cindy McClellan gives Cindy control in an attempt to stop Sam from killing them. Ruby tells Sam the demon is faking it. Sam doesn't believe Ruby but, seeing no other option, kills the demon and Cindy anyway.
Dean: He's not gonna give up his Rolodex easy.
A Rolodex is a device used to store business contact information.
Demon!Jeffrey: Looking for Lilith in all the wrong places.
"Looking for love in all the wrong places" is a line from the song "Looking for Love" by country singer Johnny Lee. The line was previously mentioned by Jenkins in 1.15 The Benders.
The rescue dog adopted by Jeffrey, and the discussion of caring for her, may be a nod to Jared Padalecki's charity A Dog's Life Rescue.
Jeffrey apologizes to his dog for the Elizabethan collar, or "cone of shame" it must wear after surgery. This is a reference to the animated film Up, in which a group of dogs uses the "cone of shame" as a punishment.
Detective Sutton: Thought you guys might show up. It's the drummer boys - Agents, uh, Bonham and Watts, right?
John Bonham was the drummer for Led Zeppelin. Dean previously used this alias in 1.11 Scarecrow and 5.05 Fallen Idol.
Charlie Watts is the drummer for The Rolling Stones.
When Lucifer pokes his tongue out at Sam it is forked, referencing the form of a snake Lucifer took when he tempted Adam and Eve in Genesis source.
Nora tells Sam his phone number isn't working. This is because of the boys following Frank's advice in 7.06 Slash Fiction : "And change your phones on a very frequent non-scheduled schedule, you understand?"
Hallucifer: I'll even help you solve your little Nancy Drew mystery or whatever.
Nancy Drew was a young female amateur detective in a long running series of novels created by Edward Stratemeyer in the 1930s. Stratemeyer also created the similar book series The Hardy Boys, a nickname for the brothers used by Crowley.
The demon does a waltz literally cheek to cheek with Jeffery.
In 4.16 On The Head Of A Pin, Alastair sang a phrase from Irving Berlin's Cheek to Cheek to Dean - "Heaven, I'm in heaven, and my heart beats so that I can hardly speak, and I seem to find the happiness I seek, when we're out together dancing cheek to cheek.."
Demon: Keep sawing away at your ropes, Penelope Pitstop. We can dance standing up if you want.
Penelope Pitstop is a fictional character who appeared in the Hanna-Barbera animated series Wacky Races, and starred in the spin-off The Perils of Penelope Pitstop, voiced by Janet Waldo, 1969.
Hallucifer: Come on Sam, say it with me now...goooood morning Vietnam!
Lucifer references the signature sign on of DJ Adrian Cronauer in the film Good Morning, Vietnam. Cronauer's program was broadcast on the Armed Forces Radio Services during the Vietnam War. The opening salutation was an acknowledgment that the troops had woken up to another day of war.
The part of Jeffrey's ritual requiring the blood of the exorcist to bring back the demon may be a reference to a key scene from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, where one of Voldemort's supporters uses Harry's blood as part of the ritual to bring back Voldemort. "B-blood of the enemy... forcibly taken... you will... resurrect your foe."

Minutiae

In the flashbacks to the original possession and exorcism of Jeffrey, Dean is once again wearing the amulet, his ring, bracelet and driving the Impala.
Lilith had a lieutenant named Merrick in New Orleans.
The number plate on the car Dean drives with Jeffrey is SD 4420E. SD can of course stand for Sam and Dean.
Dean's voice message says "Leave your name, number and nightmare after the tone."
On his other phone he uses the alias Frank gave him, saying "This is Special Agent Smith, please leave your name, number and a detailed..." Sam hangs up before we can hear the rest.
Nora's website, wiccansweb.com, doesn't exist.
