Sorry for taking so long to reply. I'm glad you're able to see more of the brotherly relationship in these episodes than me. I do agree, once the real Sam returns, Sam and Dean's relationship will be on the mend. I really look forward to that happening, and all I can say is that I hope the payoff will do all this waiting and fan angst service.
I think that shows that he believes Sam on some level
Yes, true, Dean didn't want to kill Sam anymore, but just use him as his personal punching bag, which I can only surmise is supposed to be proof of his brotherly love and the depth of his compassion. *snort* Sorry for the sarcasm, it's not directed at you or your comment, that kind of violence is one of my triggers. But, seriously, I think Dean was taking a wait and see approach (wait to see what this version of Sam would do next ... more admissions?) and then didn't know what to do with all his pent-up emotion. Sadly, it's canon fact that Dean hits the things he loves the most (the Impala and Sam) when he's scared (and angry) and backed into a corner. It's just too bad that Sam didn't fight back because at least then it would just fall under "another Winchester brother tussle" and it would be so much less disturbing to me.
Let's hope this season improves on the brother-relationship front from here on out. I'm ready for this to have been the series low point.
