Trivia & References

The episode title "The Born-Again Identity" is a play on the 2002 spy thriller movie The Bourne Identity (which was based a novel of the same name by Robert Ludlum). In the film, the main character Jason Bourne, played by Matt Damon, finds himself suffering from amnesia, and his attempts to discover who he is. Along the way he finds he has a number of skills – speaking multiple languages, proficiency in hand-to-hand combat – that give him clues to his identity.
Dean: It's not like the guys frigging Norman Bates.


Norman Bates was the serial killer in the Hitchcock movie Psycho, who killed his mother, kept her corpse in his house and assumed her identity.
Dean: Quit being Dalai- friggin-Yoda about this. Get pissed!


Dean has mashed up the names of two individuals known for their equanimity in the face of challenges - the spiritual leader of Tibet Dalai Lama and Jedi master Yoda.
Sam: last faith healer we hooked up with had a healer on a leash. Sam is referring to the events of 1.12 Faith.
While Dean is trying to find help for Sam, Bobby's journal inexplicably falls on the floor, and a card for "Mackey's Taxidermy" falls out. Mackey in turn leads Dean to Castiel. This is the third time such an event has occurred - a possible hint that Bobby's ghost is around.
Meg: Dean, Dean Dean. You got some 'splaining to do!


"Lucy, you've got some 'splainin to do!" was a catchphrase of Lucy's husband Ricky Ricardo in the 50/60s sitcom I Love Lucy starring Lucille Ball.
Marin, the patient who is being haunted by her brother, is played by Kacey Rohl, who is the daughter of Mike Rohl who had directed ten episodes of Supernatural at the time of airing.
Sam: last faith healer we hooked up with had a healer on a leash. Sam is referring to the events of 1.12 Faith.
