asdfghjkl; - don't piss off the nerdy angels.
I only have a few comments on this one because I'm overwhelmed right now.
Ben is Dean's kid. Anyone who saw the end of the episode and thinks otherwise is not watching the same show as me. Ben is his child, and he knows it, and Lisa knows it.
That was heartbreaking. I just...GOD LET THE POOR GUY BE HAPPY. What the HELL.
He and Lisa could be pretty great together. They could have a good life. Can't Dean have that good life? Please?
(Oh yeah, and the rest of the episode was pretty good, except for the gratuitous use of the word whore.)
ANYWAY MOVING ON.

You guys? I think I'm in love again.
This episode was fantastic on so many levels because things are happening and I really thought Dean was going to say yes and then he DIDN'T and Sam and Dean are being all brotherly again and there was Adam who I was JUST thinking about today for absolutely no reason (I hadn't seen spoilers or previews for this episode) and he was so cute and kind of a dick but totally a Winchester, even without John's influence.
AHHHH. *flails*
And wow, Dean/Castiel and Dean/Sam all in one episode? Good job, writers. Play up to your fans. I will admit, that fight scene was kind of hot--and also really sad, because oh, Cas. I'm so sorry. Platonic or romantic (and let's be honest, y'all, on this show it's only ever gonna be platonic), he loves Dean, and he really did give up everything because he believed in him. I'm wondering what happened to him. I saw someone suggest maybe he's human now. Or dead? D: I don't think so. I hope he's still all angel-y and brooding somewhere.
And *sigh*, what happened to Adam? Is he the temporary vessel? Did Michael take him to his mom? I hope it's the latter and not the former, because seriously: poor kid.
It really saddens me that SPN's version of heaven is so lonely. I mean, you don't even get to see your loved ones? Depressing, if you ask me.
Bobby made me sad, too. God. When Dean told him, "You're not my father," and his face fell, I just wanted to give him a huge hug. Because you know, maybe he's not their dad, but he's sure as hell doing his damndest to protect them. He loves them as if they were his sons: that is straight-up the relationship they have. And I know Dean was upset and wanted to leave, but guh. I hope he makes that one right. :[
Anddd now I just have to go back to the boys, because Sam was great in this, he really was, and Dean was breaking my heart, but he was great, too. They're just good men. Different, but good, and I love them for it. If any two people could stop the apocalypse, it'd be them.
It's been 100 episodes of this show, guys. They did right by us with this one. It's been a slow season, but I think things are about to pick up. For the first time in months, I can't wait.
Man. I'm still on a fangirl high. I didn't watch the preview for the next episode, and I don't think I'm going to. I was so pleasantly surprised these last two times, I think I'm gonna keep avoiding spoilers.
*sigh* Oh, Kripke. Kripke, Kripke, Kripke. Damn you.
Now I can't wait until next Thursday.
