Honestly? The only answer I can give you is, they retconned their canon and sloppily tried to tie it to the first two seasons. None of it makes sense. No matter how many lines you try to draw to connect the dots. It just doesn't work.

I was hoping you'd give me an insight into something I'm missing here. *pouts* But there really isn't anything there, is it?

Bobby's still alive, I am not mad at Kripke, Bobby's still alive, I am not mad at Kripke.....

Yeah, I'm sorry. I wish I could be incredibly inventive and try to successfully link this new information with the old canon, but it's not possible. It's a flatout retcon, which means past canon isn't worth the tape it's filmed on. There's absolutely no logical way you could make it fit, you just can't. My favorite analogy is they're trying to shove a square peg into a round hole, you can't do that without tearing up the peg or the hole. You might be successful on a level, but the overall result looks like shit. I've stopped trying to make sense of it, I'm just going to enjoy what I can in season five and be glad Bobby's not dead.

I know. *sighs* You're absolutely right. though seriously, I'd take what happened in season 1 and 2 and even 3 over anything that we learned in season 4. As far as I'm concerned, aside from the JJ's performances in season 4, the entire season is not worth the tape it's filmed on.

So, I guess we'll just suspend our beliefs and hope that season 5 makes more sense and more importantly that Kripke doesn't go full on evil and kills one or both of the boys.

And I go you one better. *points* I imagined that was Castiel when he did it. AND I LAUGHED AND LAUGHED AND LAUGHED.

Oh, yes. That moment was hilarious. Jensen's facial expression was just priceless.
