Their last dance

Here´s the full sequence and I wanna point out 4 moments:

02:45 when Richie asks Syd to dance.

01:44 when Carmy says: a swing and a miss.

00:11 when Carmy and C are dancing and we can clearly see Cicero asking Syd to dance in the background.

00:03 when C looks over her shoulder to find smiley Syd dancing with Cicero right behind her and I´m thinking she did that bc Carmy was looking at Syd.

IMO, and I have been commenting on this for days on others´ posts, but I never made a post about this before bc to me this was their last dance, meaning Clairmy is DOOMED, Carmy asked C to dance bc he saw Richie asking Syd to dance, and he got I´m not sure if jealous or competitive or something clicked in his brain, and he reacted by doing what was "easy" for him to do.

I´m not saying this was a fully conscious decision on his part; it might have been unconsciously driven by this need to "compete" with Richie and maybe also by this jealousy or possessiveness about Syd, that he doesn´t consciously allow himself to feel, because it´s inappropriate.

Furthermore, Carmy´s peripheral vision was always on Syd as they seemed to always be dancing nearby on the dance floor with their respective dance partners. Carmy apparently only danced with C, at least canonically, but tbh I see it quite hard to fathom he never danced with the bride... which means that there are dances we didn´t get to see ;) and Syd danced with Richie, Cicero, and maybe "others"... IDK ;)

So, Carmy and C´s last dance was marked by his swing & miss retort, symbolically speaking. I´m sure.

We don´t know what happened between C and Carmy after the wedding, except that he called her and she asked him to recover her green sweatshirt but that could be just a friendly call on his part, not necessarily a "we got back together" call. IDK, that´s yet to be seen in S5, I say let´s hope for the best bc there´s no way that what happened in that back alley was not a love confession, no matter how plagued by subtext it was and how interrupted it was and how much of a sadist Storer is, let´s just trust the fucking process.

Bonus track: I´M WAY MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THIS: Carmy knows Syd was Richie´s date at the wedding. Carmy doesn´t know about Richjess being brewing on the back burner. Carmy saw Richie asking Syd out to dance, and she accepting this with a smile on her face. Syd begged Richie to spare his life in the back alley when Richie freaked out about Carmy actually being at Michael´s funeral, and Richie obliged. Carmy saw this. Syd asked Carmy to add Richie to the agreement. So, couldn´t this crazy person Carmy is, who we all know is jealous, competitive, and possessive, be connecting the dots all wrong and thinking that perhaps there´s something going on between Richie and Syd? The answer is "maybe". If that maybe is more inclined to "yes" then we have yet another reason why Carmy was relentless in his quest to leave the restaurant and not let Syd´s heartbreaking cries change his mind and another reason for him to step aside and let Richie "get the girl" bc that´s what she wants and he doesn´t wanna stick around to see it, there´s like this unspoken bro code between some Italians, and maybe other ppl from other cultures too, if your BFF or your brother and you are into the same girl, the girl´s decision is the only one that counts and the loser STFU and retires, wishing them luck, it´s like an ancient honor thingy. Not saying this in any way influenced his decision to quit the restaurant bc that happened before the wedding, but what I´m saying is that it may have influenced his decision to not change his mind when Syd said what she said. What could have changed it was her literally asking him to stay, don´t go bc I WANT YOU HERE, not need you but WANT YOU BC I DON´T WANNA DO THIS WITHOUT YOU, etc, under the table speech 2.0, that woulda overruled any "bro code" but she never said that and all this "dancing Sydrichie" BS was printed on his mind since the wedding and she hadn´t talked to him during the whole service, etc. Ofc all of this can be easily cleared up next season, but as of now, during and right after the fight, this may have been on Carmy´s mind, at least in the back of it, causing trouble, on top of everything else that troubles his mind on a daily basis, ofc.

One of my favorite SPN tropes is Sam coming up with a “maybe this works” plan much to Dean’s stress.

Bears are forever

So, Michelle and Steve are no longer together, apparently, and that´s great Sydcarmy news!

Storer is serving subtext again, his favest dish.

Because Steve was still around on the dance floor, at the end, during the dance, spinning around with Francie, meaning he wasn´t dancing with Michelle bc she had already left, and they didn´t leave together.

Maybe they didn´t even arrive together. Steve was always flying solo, mingling, etc, and Michelle was by herself as well, not under the table with Steve, and then she hung out a bit with Tiff before taking off and "missing it" bc she had a plane to catch.

Plus, when Frank asked Steve how he became a Berzatto, he didn´t say I´m married to Michelle, or my wife is Michelle Berzatto, etc. He just awkwardly and rather drily said: "Married to a ... cousin."

MEANING: The Berzattos stick together even after a divorce, and even if they don´t have kids in common. Bears are forever. (unless they deliberately want to leave the clan, like Carmy´s dad).

And this is how Storer showed us that Bears have a sweet and unconditional side too, not everything is toxic about them and that now that Syd is part of the family, unless she actually wants out, even if Carmy and her no longer work together, they are gonna stick together forever because:
