I think that Dean's ability to lie to people he cares about is different from being a practised con man, and I have no difficulty with his inability to fake it for family, and also get why Sam doesn't immediately think he's being lied to. Even when he's suspicious.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
I think Sam is getting tired of waking up after being thrown against something because of the angel power and having Dean lame-explain it away.

Didn't it go down differently with Abaddon's soldiers? Dean wasn't the room when Zeke blasted out.
How cute is this? I'm chuffed SPN is finally cool enough. Even if they re-used Dean's copy for Sam.
I got a box from TV Merch the other day, and thought it was the Impala replicas shipping. But no, just the calendar. Which I don't get to open for two months, so no need to get excited in October....hmmph...
I want those SO much. They remind of the wood chibis I made for Lee a couple years back.
There had better be a whole bunch of Dorothy/Charlie in Oz waiting for me somewhere, damn it.
My only quibble was the shoes, which are SILVER in the books, not red. Ahem.
The Tin Man didn't die in the books either, IJS.
(which is to say, I called it out in the recap I did, but it's trivially fanwankable)
I was feeling some Samothy there for a second, but I ended up surprised that Dot and Charlie didn't skip off down the brick road hand in hand.
The beginning of the GOT scene was...it was really horrible. It sounded like, creatively, they'd looped the entire section--narratively, vocally, physically. From Sam crying "spoilers" until they get to the meat of Dean being home and Sam not--it left me on edge. Clearly I can love it when the show gets meta, but that failed for me on many levels.
I felt that Sam was being very bossy this episode. Is that because Charlie is his little sister? Or will we have behaviour changes due to the Zeke within? I want the latter, honestly.
IO9 seems to have officially stopped recapping the show, as opposed to halfassedly pointing to mine. I'm glad, because they were bitter throughout, only eager to take the reins when they hated something or it was a noisy gimmick. I just wish...they could have been more professional about the whole thing. Bring in a real paid person to write real recaps, and put the site behind it.
Ah, well.
The Tin Man didn't die in the books either, IJS.
I thought that was the point -- that the bad stuff that happened to this Dorothy in Oz didn't make it into the books. That doesn't explain the shoes, though.
Maybe the heels had silver cores rather than steel ones?
Yeah, that bugged me, too.
It's like Samhain, though -- 97% of people watching think Oz means red shoes. Do you use time explaining why they're silver? Same with Samhain -- pronounce it correctly and you have to explain it (which I think they should have done in that instance, but still).
How was the GoT scenes meta? It did seem awkward, especially Sam crying, "Spoilers!"
