My interpretation of SPN 6.01 (Exile On Main St.)
So this is it. After four months of waiting, the boys are finally back in town. Hellatus wasn't as bad as it was in previous years for me... thank god.
And now the boys are back, another year is about to start and no matter what Season Six will bring along, I am excited, I am happy and I can't wait to see where the journey ends. If it ends ( Read more... )

Concerning Dean (because we can't NOT discuss this): Jensen was absolutely, unbelievably brilliant in this episode, wasn't he?? Gosh, if it weren't for him, the epi wouldn't have been half as good ( then again, Dean as a character wouldn't be DEAN without Jensen, but still - I can't gush over him enough, haha). There was so so so much non-verbal communication going on and we all know how damn hard it is to actually fake that part of communication. And he just... nails it. In everything. His eyes and his facial expressions especially! I once asked myself what it is that makes a person a good actor and the only thing I could come up with is "they're a good actor if they can make their eyes lie". I'd watch that episode over and over and over again just to see (and feel) him act again and again. Of course it hurts because it's Dean and empathy makes it as good as impossible not to suffer with and for him - but it's still strangely fulfilling (or calming?), in a very masochistic way. haha. Do you know what I mean?
[and I didn't mention this in my review because, of course, I have to remain objective and all that... not with you, I reckon, hehe]
What I don't really like about his silence is that he KNEW how much Dean was hurting. He knew, and he still didn't 'put him out of his misery'. Sure, he had his reasons. But couldn't he pretend to get text from an angel (or Crowley?) who said that Sam was dead, but not in Hell? Would that really been too much work? Just sayin'...
Yes, I hear you. I guess that's where human fallibility plays a very huge part. "I should have done that, so he would have suffered less" - and in the end human emotions get in the way and make it impossible for you to think and act rationally. (remaining silent or ignoring an issue often works as the infamous ~easy way out~... not even Bobby's immune to that. Unfortunately)
So I think having Dean gave her not only a father for Ben and a fine man in her bed, but ALSO someone who needs her and who she can take care of. And we all know how much females crave to take care of Dean, right? *wink*
hahahaha, true that! :D
