See, the funny thing I'm learning about this story is because the character (waitress) knows so little, there's really a lot of interpretations that will work. I thought I had a pretty straightforward plot, but I'm seeing that everybody has their own perspective and each perspective works, too!
Yep, the burns on Sam's arms were the binding marks that he had from "Born Under a Bad Sign." That's the main reason I put a spoiler warning for that episode on here.
Here's my take on what happened: Sam got possessed. While possessed, was able to "snap out of it" for a moment to tell Dean that he could come back on Sundays. He then went missing. Dean came to the diner because, hey, he likes his coffee. When Dean left himself for those few months, he finally got a lead on Sam. He went to find Sam, was able to exorcise him, and he returned. The whole "he decided to come back anyway" was a bit of Dean being a smartass to Sam that he was able to finally get the demon out of him. But, again, that's just me. It's not necessarily the right or wrong interpretation of the story as there are a lot of blank spots and "creative liberties" (heh) taken here.
Hee. I'm actually a little bit flattered that you guys talked about the story. (I'm a dork, I know...) :)
