I don't mock his pain--I lurrve his pain.
I fetishize his pain. He looks pretty when he hurts.
Why oh why couldn't they have cast a Cassie with whom JA had chemistry? I have to just take Sam's word for it that anything is happening between them. JA is trying real hard, but I'm just not seeing the love thing when she's onscreen too.
He has some amazing chemistry with the wall next to her though. (Yes, that was tragic casting.)

Faith was brilliant for that. Sick pain, empathy pain, tear-filled eyes. Painfest.
Oh yeah, Faith.
Still want to direct him better cardiac-weak-wise, though.
I'm just having a private smile thinking of Dean as Buttercup. Who's Westley? And who's Humperdink? Sam may be Fezzik.
Pay no attention to the woman in the corner.

Dude, and the Hoodie of Pain.
He was really outstanding in that episode. And JP was great, because he just kicked into gear, panicking, no way on earth he was losing Dean. LOVE.
The panic was great too. Snapshot of what was to come. Oh, the boys and their dying and their bond.
Route 666 today still underwhelmed me (aside from JA's rippling nude back, which is always a win), but I did make more note of how well JP played Sam's fascination with this side of Dean he'd never seen.
It's always interesting to me, when Dean steps away to kiss Cassie and leaves Sam standing there, Sam clears his throat and Dean holds up a "wait one" finger. Sam just seems bereft. Like, wait--that's *my* Dean.
Whereas Dean's always trying to push girls on Sam, at least in S1.
Sam's not so into sharing big bro, and I think Dean sees happiness in the ladies and wants Sam to be happy the same way.
It's wonderful looking at Dean through Sam's eyes. Cassie is such a void of casting (did they not audition her? Could they not find any other biracial-plausible actresses? How hard where they trying) that JA needed all the help he could get.
Also the plot is highly stupid. Is it the worst of the run?
eta: Also, the look Dean gives Sam when Sam asks if it's worth it is so golden. Dean would rather be on the road with little brother, even if little brother would rather be settled down and Dean knows it.
Bugs is pretty bad, too, plotwise.
They didn't even really save the family in Bugs, did they? Didn't the sun just come up while everyone cowered in the attic?
