SPN: Time Is On My Side

You know, I still don't get some things about this episode (re-aired last night).
1) Were we to believe the demon who made the deal with Bela was Lilith herself? I don't get how Bela got a crossroads deal without summoning a crossroads demon. Or did Lilith/whatever demon it was used to go around looking for easily corruptible people?
2) Random guy knows random things. I can't remember Steven Williams' character name. I mean, he's cool and all, but it still felt a little disjointed having him pull out all the answers so easily. Maybe we'll get to see more of him.
3) Burying the book with Doc Benton. Okay, I know it's so no one else can stumble across it, but why didn't they burn the stupid book? I'm torn between wanting a follow-up on that (tell me I'm not the only one who could see Sam going back and digging up the book) and hoping they'll leave that thread untouched. Because as awesomely creepy as Billy Drago always is, I don't know if I could stomach more of that storyline. When all his organs fail, will he die for good?
4) I still think it's stupid they had Bela begging Dean for help with two minutes left on her clock. Seriously, we're supposed to care at that point, when she'd clearly established she had no concern for anyone but herself? I suppose someone had to care about her, so it might as well have been her.
Somewhat unrelated, is there anywhere online which gives us a list of the Winchesters' entire arsenal?
Crap, it's noon and I haven't done anything today. I've got tons to do.

3) Every time I see the episode, it's gonna bug me that they didn't burn it. LOL.
4) Good point. "Since I didn't just kill you like I thought I did, mind helping me?" Der. I'm guessing they were going for desperation there, but at that point I just desperately wanted her gone.
Not at all. :)
