I'm sure there's a fic writer somewhere who's working on it, Matt...

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That would have been kind of awesome, Matt. But I'm not sure the episode needed more HSQ.

You know, I was thinking about this this morning trying to fall asleep (Which what probably led to weird but hot sex dreams about Castiel, but anyway)...
Why is Castiel talking to Dean anyway? I mean, Sam is the one who believes in God. He's the one with faith -- why doesn't Castiel just appear to Sam and say "I am an angel of the Lord. Can I just say, fucking with demons is not good? Here's your bro from hell -- don't be naughty or God will smite?"
Why all the circuitousness? I know, I know -- plot, but still. The free-will, not interfereing arguement doesn't cut it, because I really think Sam is more apt to follow an angel's suggestions than Dean's.

Maybe he's afraid of Sam.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Maybe he's afraid of Sam.
Interesting point. Or, maybe it's a case where if they encountered each other, it would go nuclear rather quickly.

Hmm. I don't think so. I mean, Azazel was impressed by Dean's connections. I don't think Sam has enough power -- or evil chutzpah -- to randomly kick Castiel's ass because he doesn't like what he has to say.
And, I have to say, I think Sam, as shown, has too much actual reverence for the idea of good to do that. Sam DESPERATELY wants to be good, even if it means fooling himself. I think he would be appalled to know that God think's he's courting evil.
Also, btw, do we have a guarantee that Castiel is who he says he is? I mean, Lucifer is an angel -- fallen, but still an angel. Why can't Castiel be lying, or a lone rangel, or you know, evil?

He's wearing a trenchcoat, but no leather pants, so I have to go with formerly evil looking for redemption.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
That was fun. I knew I was being manipulated at the time, but I still cried with Mary and Dean. AIFG! I thought he should have said his name was Calvin since they had already nodded to "Back to the Future", but I am glad they avoided any romantic tension. Mary was completely in love with John. :sigh: Greek tragedy all the way, baby.
Mary made a deal, John made a deal, and Dean made a deal. Sammy has some catching up to do. Also I am wondering, if Mary wanted a "normal" life without hunting and created that life in Lawrence, and Ma and Pa Campbell are dead, then did she ever tell John she was a hunter? Is that something he never knew? Did he run across hunters later that might have told him? Did she ever tell John that she had made a deal to bring him back? She wouldn't have had to and we know from the boys that thinking up plausible stories to explain the deaths on the spot is second nature to hunters. Was John more fucked up knowing that he was the reason (in a way) that Mary was killed?
I flailed and squeed and fan-girled myself out. But I am left with a question and I feel like the biggest dork for missing this, but if Castiel said Dean couldn't change anything, then why did he send him into the past to "stop it." I'm caught in a loop and I can't get out. Where did I miss in the episode why this made sense?

Ha!

I think that was a misperception on Dean's part. I don't think Dean was supposed to stop the events in the past happening; I think he's supposed to stop Sam from trippin' down the primruby path to Hell.
EDIT:

Heh.

That makes sense. Thanks!
