6. Why does Mary in the pilot suddenly forget her life as a hunter? We've seen canonical evidence from Sam that even though you leave the game, you never stop protecting yourself. Sam wakes up in the middle of the night, ready to kick some ass even after 4 (or two) years away at college. Even if Mary is not actively seeking out supernatural danger, I find it very difficult to believe that she would not be doing what she could to protect her home

I got the impression that she had always wanted out of the life. The YED alluded to it at least once. Unforetunatly I can't remember the exact quote-blaa. The Hunter lifestyle cost her a normal childhood, and later her family, almost John, and something horrible that she had agreed to in the future, but can't really prepare for. She's seen how powerful it is.

When faced with something that horrible, but in a future you don't have to face yet a lot of people get selective amnesia about the facts, like smokers who are convinced cancer won't get them, and continue full ahead to the black lung.

Just my 2 cents.

Love the recaps. Please keep it up.
