Art Crawl!!!

Yeah, that must have been weird. I mean - Dean didn't have his mother for all that long and didn't grow up knowing his grandfather.

I also thought that the way the Campbells were going through the stuff at Dean's house and making fun of it was a bit OTT. And it makes sense if we aren't supposed to like them or think that Dean should trust them or Sam.

(That blond cousin is the young sharpshooter from Flashpoint.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I don't think we're supposed to trust anyone at this point, except for Ben and Lisa... which makes sense if we're getting the story from Dean's point of view.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I saw that as another callback to how Dean used to be. He was less verbal about it though.

Re: Dean's drinking... I don't think we were supposed to see the hard liquor after the beer at the bar as a habit. I think it was supposed to indicate Dean being freaked out by the hallucinations that he thought were real.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'm sitting back and letting the season play out a bit before I solidify an opinion. As a devotee of nitpicky detail and composition, editing, etc., did anyone notice that when Ben turned around to see Sam standing in his house the camera on Sam shot up from Ben's eye level? Giant! Giant Winchester in my house! Giant supposedly dead Winchester in my house.

I thought it was interesting that Mo wondered if Sam's behaviour and attitude was because of hell, or because of the Campbells.

Nice catch Beverly. I just rewatched and you're so right.

Juliebird do you have a link to Mo's review? Interesting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't think we were supposed to see the hard liquor after the beer at the bar as a habit.

Didn't he drink hard liquor closing up the house before the jaunt out with Sid too? I thought it was a normal thing. And his description of the time with Lisa didn't make it seem like he was all ironed out.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I read the late evening drink as a way to counterbalance the nightmares. Not the healthiest way to deal but it is Dean.

I don't know. I don't remember that, but I wasn't looking for it during the montage.
