It's also a vintage car. It might seem a little more understandable to someone asking to point out that it had been in the family for most of its life. At that point, it also might have been easier for Sam to be thinking of it as Dad's car if thinking about Dean was too painful.

That's about the only thing that makes sense to me. For a while there, I was thinking he wasn't going to mention Dean at all, and that was going to be the tip that something was wrong with the scenario. Especially when the topic of loss was on the table, and he didn't say "Look, asshole, she's not the only who suffered the death of a loved one, so let us both fumble this out best we can, giving some small peace to each other, huh?"

However, the thing which he finally triggered on--I'm assuming that Mr. Amelia was using his knife? And that's how Dean had opened the bottles at the start of the episode? Because "Hey, my brother used to open my beer for me" isn't much of a segue, but up to that point I had not thought of Dean as having a particular way of doing that now that the ring is history.

I could go back and look, but that would mean me watching every drinking scene, and you might never hear from me again.

Amelia's dad opened the beers with his ring. And Sam stumbled over the words. "My, uh. My brother used to do that."

I stand corrected. Or, you know, sit, as the case may be.

This is so cute: [link]

She's gotten a lot better at faces. I can spot her Dean and Cas from a mile out, but her Bobby and Sam show great improvement. Never mind the focus of the picture.

I...I thought last week was the midseason finale. I even wish it was, because I don't think I can like this week as much as either of the last two (stats, life, you know--general pessimism) and I'd love to have gone out on either of those highs.

So when I saw the preview again I actually felt nervous before I felt happy there was more Show. That's sad. I've liked this season so far. It was weird.

And *now* I'm extra sad that we have to wait a month afterwards.

So I'm trying to distract myself from guessing about Benny tomorrow--two things--does he violate Dean's trust, and is this his last appearance this season?

Oh--I'll go for three--is Dean hiding something Amy Pondish?

Like, he got Cas pregnant in Purgatory?

We may not be thinking of the same Amy Pond.

I don't watch Dr. Who, so I don't know what this means.
