While I'm in a posting mood...

I need an explanation for the Season 4 premiere, because I am missing something.

When Dean and Bobby go to find Sam in that motel in Pontiac, Ruby is there. She's introduced as "Cathy" or "Chrissy," or whatever, but it's definitely Ruby.

She then completely fails to recognize Dean, back from hell, along with Bobby (whom she's met at least once, in "Sin City"). Or at least pretends to.

Sam then apparently lies through his teeth to Dean about the girl. This after the massive, massive shock of getting his brother back from Hell. He later lies through his teeth some more when he says Ruby's dead.

So. Is that a continuity error? Did Ruby somehow manage to convey to Sam that she didn't want him to reveal her identity to Dean?

It's driving me nuts.

I was just as surprised as you are ;D
Though... Ruby and Sam already started lying to Dean during Season 3, it's almost as if they fall back into habit...
Sorry, for my bad english, it's 2am in Germany and I'm extremly tired XD

True. Everyone starts lying to everyone toward the end of Season 3, and they sort of pick up where they left off.

No worries about your English, it's waaaay better than my German. :)
