I know, I know - this is *not* the kind of meta notes I've been long due (and boy, has it been a looooooong while! - RL deadlines coupled by an urgent family crisis, pushing onto quite a bit of a tragedy, really has a knack of getting in the way of fannish indulgement, hiatus or no hiatus). I still owe myself - what is it? three by now? - episode

I totally can relate to RL deadlines (I had several to deal with too) and the lack of reviews I meant to write but never got around to due to time constraints.
An interesting thought you have regarding Dean's possible unwitting rendezvous with God/Death in the episode. I confess the I haven't thought in that term, but the possibility is quite tantalizing. If proving true would certainly make S6 story arc - at this point seems to be solely about Sam's soul and "The Great Wall of Sam" to me - a lot more interesting than I gave credit to thus far.

That's just something that occured to me. Even on a more 'grounded', down-to-Earth metaphoric level, methinks, the brothers' interaction with the two 'elders' is quite significant as a soundbaord characterization tool. But there just appeared to be certain tips about both Colt's and Elkins' depiction - too tell-tale not to be deliberate. I'm just wondering if there might've been a reason for it.
That, and I enjoyed Samuel Colt's character so much - I wish there was a way to factor him back into the story somehow.
