You know, after Gert.
Oh, Bev, you'd play it way cooler than Gert.

I dunno, Ailleann. But I'm rewatching right now.

I think that Dean's non-reaction is going to drive Sam over the edge.
Next week's promo is extra creepy.

Yeah, but we're smarter than Gert. We'd wait until he was drunk instead of us.

Oh, thanks hon. I'd sure like to think so. Yeah, I'd be more head-patty and less ass-pinchy.

I have to say, I hope that this attitude of complete unconcern that Dean's got going on concerning his imminent demise is an act for Sam's benefit (because he thinks that he needs to keep Sam from trying to break the deal, or keep Sam from worrying or grieving prematurely). Because other than that, I have difficulty understanding it. He's been a balls-to-the wall fighter for as long as we've seen him, and this role reversal where he just gives up is harder to understand. I know he did it for Sam's sake, but when Sam is trying to offer him hope and the possibility of a way out, and Dean is actively arguing against it, it's getting hard for me to accept.

Not too drunk.... remember what happened last time. Boy's a lightweight.

My thought: Dean made his bed. He walked into that crossroad knowing that he wasn't walking out a free man, no matter how long he got. His whole life has been about protecting Sam, and this is the ultimate version of that protection.
(Does that mean I think his ultra-cool isn't a huge act? Hell no.)

Morgana - I totally think it's a front. You know he thinks that if he at all encourages Sam to look for a solution that Sam's a goner.

Because books.
This episode felt unbalanced to me, like someone let their inner 10-year-old boy out to play a little too freely (and I GET that Dean is sometimes crass, but jesus, hit us over the head with that and the "Dean's dumb!" shit some more, huh?).
But that last scene? That ... I don't even know how I feel about it. I want to smack them both, and hug them both, and I want Dean to at least admit ONCE to Sam that he's a little bit afraid, you know? Or wistful. Or something.
And, wow, even though I don't usually nitpick, I'm going to go ahead and say I wish they'd find another way to have the boys communicate instead of a tacked-on conversation in the car at the end of the episode.
