Dean wore it in Chuck's presence many times.
Good catch! Huh.
It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Maybe Chuck only existed to tell the prophesy and once it was over he was no longer necessary, poof! Not God, not Jesus, not anyone. Supernatural's Dawn, though sadly she didn't vanish.
Or perhaps the Samulet burned hot in Chuck's presence but Dean couldn't feel it under all his layers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My heart crushed when Castiel bought it, but now that he's going back to heaven and everyone's all alone and Sam's a demonic stalker and there's no Samulet...but at least the Impala destruction was just a tease.
I need to rewatch tomorrow morning.

Is Chuck God, or is he Elijah?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Oh and let's face it, the writer is God of their verse. I thought it was awesomely meta.
Yeah, I didn't think it was any sort of ego trip.
That's not what I would have envisioned for a series finale, but Chuck actually made it work and seem like a culmination of everything.
I'm a little eye-rolly at the quick death and resurrection of Bobby and Castiel; it's not like the boys don't die all the time, but, as has been observed before, it's hard to make a death count on this show if it's so easily negated. The deaths were so quick that I expected them to be merely temporary anyway.
How did Sam get out of the hole? I'm also of the opinion that that scene would not have been there if the show hadn't been renewed.

If the show had not been renewed, Bobby and Castiel would have stayed dead, Sam and Michael would have gone to hell. If they had kept Andy, then the final seen would have been of Dean slowly dying. Or possibly if it had not been for the S6 renewable the plan would have been for both Dean and Sam to be meat suits and it would have ended as they took over from their drivers and jumped into hell together.

First of undoubtedly many codas. Seems more people think it needed fixing than I'd have guessed.
Dean looked very grim, and he was still drinking. I don't think he wandered off and forgot his brother. I don't think that's possible--and after all that happened in that ep, he's even more damaged than he was at the start of it.
PLEASE LET THE SEASON START IN SEPTEMBER. I fear I'm going to be a dirty little spoiler whore.

Good idea, Plei. I like the idea of Chuck as Elijah a lot better than Chuck as God.
And now that I've checked out the lyrics to "Rock of Ages" I agree that it was a good song to use. [link]
I think that this episode was pretty good closure to the past five seasons while still setting up a potentially interesting season six. The boys have had a habit of trying to sacrifice themselves for each other, so I thought it would be a question of which one would get the chance at the end of the season. The story arc just seems to bend that way. I thought both JA and JP did terrific jobs and I liked the role the Impala played.
ETA: It just occurred to me that if Chuck is God, he just wrote a novel about how his creations' creation (the Impala) helped save the world. That's so Proud Grandpa of him.
