John Winchester and other Thoughts
Ok, I didn't see the episode last night because of my stupid cat unplugging my satellite box from the wall, but I've been reading some comments about what happened.
I guess Ellen's husband died while he and John were on a hunt together and she still blames John for it. I also heard that she took it out on Dean and also blamed Dean for her daughter's stupidity. We'll get to that later.
First of all, I think it is kind of funny that everyone is defending John now that he is dead, while some of those same people were cursing him while he was alive for his treatment of Dean and Sam as children. I get the whole respect for the dead angle and John not being around to defend himself and I guess I agree with that. Nobody really knows what happened to Ellen's husband except John and her husband. And for her to still blame him after all these years is a little harsh. Maybe this is why John never brought Dean and Sam around the Roadhouse. For fear of Ellen bringing up the death and Sam's secret as well. And we couldn't have Dean look at his father in a bad way(when he was younger) could we?
Now about her blaming Dean/taking it out on Dean, She has no right to do that. She probably confronted John about the death and that is what caused the rift in their friendship/relationship and that should have been the end of it. Taking it out on his sons makes no sense at all.
About Jo,Now I think that Dean should have told Ellen that Jo decided to tag along when Ellen first called Dean, but he should not be blamed for her going off on her own. Even Dean and Sam know that working alone isn't the brightest idea. I guess Jo had to prove how tough she is and almost got herself killed in the process. It would have been better if she had just stayed as the researcher on her (I'm assuming) first time out.
Ok, these are my thoughts and if you are still reading this, Thanks. :)
Just wanted to ramble on for a little while and get my thoughts down.
