The one in which asshole angel Zachariah tries to give Dean a kick in the pants by sending him into an alternate future wherein the shit has hit the fan due to Dean&#8217;s unwillingness to follow angelic plans. When present Dean encounters future Dean he has to convince his alternate self he is who he appears to be. And he does it like <a href="http://www.supernaturalwiki.com/index.php?title=Rhonda_Hurley">this</a>:</p>
<blockquote class="tr_bq"><p><b>Future!Dean: </b>Okay. If you&#8217;re me, then tell me something only I would know.<br /><b>Dean:</b> Rhonda Hurley. We were, uh, nineteen. She made us try on her panties. They were pink. And satiny. And you know what? We kind of liked it.<br /><b>Future!Dean:</b> Touché.</p></blockquote>
<p>In the days that followed, we had several versions of this conversation:</p>
<blockquote class="tr_bq"><p><b>Anna:</b> I really can&#8217;t believe that scene doesn&#8217;t turn up in fic more often, I mean it&#8217;s all <i>right there</i> really.<br /><b>Hanna:</b> Yup. Right there.<br /><b>Anna:</b> Like, how it would be something Dean was super secretive and embarrassed about and Cas would totally not understand why it was a source of embarrassment.<br /><b>Hanna:</b> Yup.<br /><b>Anna:</b> Someone totally needs to write that fic.<br /><b>Hanna:</b> It&#8217;s all yours. Write away.</p></blockquote>
