Is it possible Michael will ask Sam to be his vessel and Sam agrees? Same bloodline, so Sam might be able to serve.
That thought crossed my mind too. Then I wondered if the YED-influence would make Sam ineligible. THEN it occurred to me that John was possessed by the YED as well as being vesselized by Michael, so maybe the few drops of YED blood wouldn't knock Sam out of the running after all.
If Sam would say yes to Michael, would that leave Lucifer with nowhere to go? Maybe that would be one way to do an end run around him. Unless it turns out that for some reason any Winchester can also house Lucifer so that Dean would then end up his next target.
Itunes hasn't made this ep available yet. WHY????
I could say more on Ana, but Plei pretty much speaks for me. So, a question instead: when Dean was sent back in time to stop the YED, it turned out the only point was "lessons learned". Because you can't change the past, you can't stop fate etc... So when Ana goes back in time to kill John & Mary, why is it so urgent to go back in time and stop her? I can fanwank it that the "you can't change the past" does not apply when an Angel does it. (In which case why isn't Uberangel Lucifer doing some time travel?) But I shouldn't need to fanwank the question. The writers could have put in a throwaway line. If they were short on time, they could have cut out references to bunny boiling.
Upon rewatch:
- I love that they steal a car and nothing is made of it.
- God, Sam's face at the door.
- How do they know where Anna has lured John?
- Good thing angels like to play with their food, or this would have been a much shorter episode.
- Dean trying to protect John is adorable. And exactly the sort of thing John apologises for later.
- Sam and Dean so quickly assenting to never being born is chilling.
- Mary cries beautifully.
- How did Uriel smudge the sigils and mess with the holy oil?
- How does Michael ask John's permission without killing him?
- Dean was willing to not have Zachariah heal Sam, right? No hesitation about insisting Michael do it, though.
- Didn't Castiel say that being Michael's vessel would fuck Dean up more than most vessels? Mistaken? Someone lying? Change of plan?
But the biggest questions:did Anna really escape or did Michael send her? Which time version of Michael appears to Dean?
How did Uriel smudge the sigils and mess with the holy oil?
I wondered that, too.
How does Michael ask John's permission without killing him?
They don't have to kill the vessel's owner. Jimmy was in there with Castiel in the beginning.
But how do they ask? How do they communicate? They can't talk to them.
Wasn't John unconscious? It was probably that dream walking thing they do.
It was probably that dream walking thing they do.
Like when Lucifer appeared to Sam.
Is it possible Michael will ask Sam to be his vessel and Sam agrees?
I've maintained this as a possible delicious twist. I don't think Michael would be fazed by the demon blood. When you think about it, demon blood was created by an angel.

It's there now and has the old title of Back to the Future II.
