I've neither heard of the song nor have no familiarity with Traffic, so they're an allowable answer to the question.

Art Crawl!!!
I wonder if getting the original was very spendy.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Loved the episode, loved the kid.
Also, the brunette vendatta thingy, Sally, was Meghan Ory, who played Rachel in The Berrisford Agenda ep of Dark Angel. She's on Once Upon a Time these days as Ruby the diner waitress, who's Red Riding Hood in another life.

So, what do y'all think about Dean's broken attempt at smiling at the end: a (relatively) "healthier" step up at managing his grief? Or just a different coping mechanism that may be even more detrimental in the long run?
My gut reaction was that it was no bueno, but on reflection, it could be an acute crutch to get him through the worst of it.
Either way, beautiful.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I immediately flashed to Wednesday Adams trying to make herself smile in Addams Family Values.
If someone fell asleep sitting in a chair and stayed in that position for 36 hours, wouldn't he wake up in horrible muscle and joint pain and with an overpowering need to urinate (assuming he hadn't already wet/soiled himself during the long nap)?

Because books.
Gah, that ending. That song makes me weepy all on its own.
Right? Ugh. I can't get it out of my head, either. DEAN.
Maybe the lost time is connected to next week's looks like time travel? Somehow? IDK.
Interesting!

I think Dean was trying to be professional. You know, follow whatsisname's advice. Do you think that was a crutch, or health? I mean, look at Frank now.

Because books.
When he was trying to smile? I think he was trying to follow Frank's advice, and not doing very well at it.
I don't know how it would be a crutch, exactly, but I don't think it's health, either.

Fake it till you make it? For Dean I think it's more of a crutch than anything else. He might avoid talking to Sam about some stuff, but to the world, he'll lie. He's just bringing that closer to home, and what he's lying about isn't going to get worked through or resolved.
Frank didn't tell him to drink less, or to confide in a loved one, after all.
I do think it's brilliant that he can connect with kids still (hell, even the potential victim in the psychic town) on a very sincere level, but it's just nothing he can sustain, or nothing he can do with someone who knows so much more about what's hurting him.
I just read a stupid, florid fic (the sort where they don't just say his eyes are sapphire. but that they're sapphires), that placed Dean's palm-scar on his forearm. Some love letter to....whatever bullshit. Better you leave it out than put it somewhere wrong.
