[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 was afraid that he was talking to Michael and this was going to be taken as his assent.
This never occurred to me. He said he needed help, he said please, but neither of those is "yes".
The idea that he was talking to his father made me a little misty there for a second.
I hadn't seen it put just that way -t, so thank you. Yes, I can certainly see that.
Dean hasn't actually mentioned God, as far as I can remember. He's certainly given every indication he didn't believe in God, heaven, angels, or anything else on the "good" side of mythos up until Castiel's appearance. What I thought, in his Gethsemane moment, was that he was in such extremis he was willing to consider the existence of God, and to turn to him for help, if God was actually there and listening. A last ditch sort of thing. And that may be entirely off-base, but it's what I got from the scene.
I thought he was talking to god & I didn't understand why D was sitting next to me shouting, "no no NO!" at the teevee until he told me he thought Dean was talking to Michael.

It had me crying at the time. Great, now Ima have to watch it again.

eta: I do think it is funny that we have a whole subsection of the fandom that is in essence anti-shipping Michael/Dean. Hee.
cereal:
From the phone call in Home:
"I don’t know what to do. So, whatever you’re doin’, if you could get here. Please. I need your help, Dad."
From My Bloody Valentine:
"Please. I can't. I need some help. Please."
I think him saying "please" and admitting he couldn't do it alone was taking me back to the episode Home. I just don't know because John went off smiling in a white light so maybe he would look up when talking to him.
On the other hand as I watch the end of My Bloody Valentine, I think JA is selling that Dean is talking to God. There is a putting down of the bottle, a glance at the car, a shaking of his head as if he is shaking off the disbelief and then the plea. Honestly I think he was talking to God. In my heart though, he was talking to John.
I have every confidence Cate Blanchett will be able to win them over once she appears...

That's what I got out of it, too. He was just so tired and utterly defeated and just kind of gave into asking for help from something he'd always maybe been afraid to believe was real, because what if it weren't, or what if it were and there was still no help to be found there.
I take it there was no new ep this past Thurs.?
Also, belated happies, Beverly!
imdb says the next episode will be March 25th.
They showed "The Curious Case of Dean Winchester" this past Thursday. I enjoy that episode for Sam kicking ass at the most improbable hand of poker. And cute grumpy Bobby.
I have quibbles with that episode but Chad Everett is wonderful.
