As usual, I love and also agree with everything you said! I've always loved how Jensen shows us what's really going on with Dean, more than the words sometimes can ever say. I personally would have liked to see Sam also deal with (although I don't know how they would have done it in this episode) how he treated his brother. Dean's not upset about him breaking the last seal (after all, Dean himself broke the first one!), it's the lying and sneaking around. Hopefully that will also be dealt with.

Yeah, I couldn't figure out how Raphael got from the hospital to the house, but I did think his wings were cool!

You know, I've read other posts that mention that Dean hasn't really laughed since sometime in season 1. Not only that, but he had 40 years of hell in there, so it was nice to see him smile.

And, yes, Jensen is very pretty (of course, do you ever wonder what he would think about us saying he's "pretty?" :) )
