I loved that. Especially the way he said it- like it's something he's had to say like a bajillion times before, and that teensy flash of frustration.
>>Aaaand of course it's too late. It's 1978, so of course she's pregnant with Dean. Crap crap crap.>>
You'd think Dean would have been able to do the math on that one.
>>s it weird that I'm a little disappointed there wasn't more Cas in this episode?>>
Not at all. There was awesome cas in the beginning! And then he just went away, and I was a sad fangirl.
There were many good things about this episode, but overall it left me puzzled. But I'm going to need to think on it some more. I am not ashamed to admit that the number of extremely good looking guys running around and looking intent and badass severely hindered my ability to think analytically.
Well, Dean may not have done the math because they clearly went back to a different month of 1978. They left January/February of 2010 and had to be in late May or June, possibly July, of 1978 (given that Mary knows she's pregnant but isn't showing yet). Dean was conceived in April of 1978 (unless he was really premature--40 weeks puts conception on April 19, 1978). Given that the boys weren't exactly looking at newspapers and caring too much about the exact date, he could easily have not realized it was late enough in the year for Mary to be pregnant yet. Also? Not really one of those thins that you think about.
John and Mary did age really fast in 4 years, but they were raising Dean Winchester in those four years. (Also? Actually a little more than 5, but still.) LOL. I do have an issue with the age difference between the actors as well--it worked when it was 10.5 years before the beginning of Pilot, but now it's only 5 and a few months.
Oh, I never expected Dean to do the math. He and Sam were busy trying to keep their parents from dying. :)
The age difference between the actors bothers me for this episode only, because John and Mary went from being baby-faced twenty-year-olds to looking practically middle-aged in about five years (math isn't my strong suit either). Even with the stress of raising Dean, it can't account for all of it. ;)
"I don't understand that reference." Oh, Cas. You kill me. Me too! He just sounded like he's said it so many, many times. Sam was seriously creeping everyone out. Anna was an idiotic bitch-angel. When you are trying to kill someone and they stab you with a pointy thing that doesn't really even slow you down, pull the damn thing out and stab THEM with it. Could have ended the whole thing right there, but no, she had to listen to herself talk a little more so Michael could come and kill her poorly acted ass. Loved, loved, loved bad ass John and Dean's reaction to him. Loved when Dean told Mary the truth and you're right, it never works out well. The end killed me. Angels will watch over you. Yes they will, the dicks, but they won't be watching for anything good. Really liked this epi. The boys keep saying they'll say no, but I dont' think even they really believe it any more.
Re: Glen Close- He's referring to a role she played in the...80s I think? Fatal Attraction. She kills her ex-lover's pet bunny by cooking it, and is generally unstable and vindictive.
For serious. It also makes Raphael out to be a real jerk, if archangels can leave their vessels whole and he just choses not to. Or is Michael's just a special snowflake and Cas never got the memo? Bleh.

I just think it would be really hard not to fall. LOL I can't help it. :D
Your reactions to this episode were about like mine. Only, you know, coherent.

I know, and it breaks my heart! At least we know Dean won't be a vegetable when it's over. Convenient loophole, that. :P

Re: awkward road trips, Uriel, BAMF Mary, and "Team Free Will"- THIS.
Also, word to messing up half of fandom's previous stories >=( The hiatus wasn't fun but at least cannon stayed still for one goshdurn second.

I am quite disappointed that there appears to be no real downside to Dean's saying "yes" now. It's all a little too convenient.
