Even after a few days, there are a few things that keep bugging me. 1) How many young and beautiful Jane Does are there lying in comas in the world...with no apparent physical damage and absolutely no one knowing who they are? One is, I think, too many. (sadly, I'm guessing that most Jane Does are old, physically damaged, and unattractive.) 2) when you wake up out of a coma in front of hospital personnel, I don't think you'll get a death certificate. 3) The shortened timeline. It just doesn't work. Ruby apparently had a very short trip to hell, despite being sent "far, far away". And I'm with you, SBG. How? Is there some kind of super-sekrit backdoor out of hell that only the Winchester hunting demons know about? Is Lucifer slinking around down there, opening time warp portals to our world for his chosen minions? Because it is supposed to be a lot harder than that, according to everything we've seen previously.
I'm still reserving judgment until next week, but they'll have to do some fancy footwork to get around some of these issues without completely contradicting their own canon.
