This has always bothered me. If it was Dean it would be no big deal, but given Sam's reticence for getting involved with anyone, the fact he'd get involved with this person seems to beg for more explanation than we got. For example he seems impressed with her book collection (which we don't see him looking at) and considers her "extraordinary" for reasons we don't get to see. Instead we see her throwing her panties in his face and trying to get him into her soap opera. It's not like there's anything wrong with flirting or soap operas but it doesn't go a long way to telling us much about her intelligence which is the one thing you'd expect Sam to find compelling.

So true. And I've noticed that about Jensen too. Odd in a guy who's quite a good actor that he seems so unable to get that across.
when I watched Heart again recently that I didn't feel they developed the chick or the relationship as well as they could have
really dug that he said he deserved it after all he'd done with the family. I liked the irony of that
BTW, did you see the ficlet that jumped off from my meta?
