oh good now Cas gets to be existential too!
instantly "you son of a bitch"
here dean take ur amulet back
Sam tries the pep talk
it's a tough crowd
OH NOO THE SAMULET
wrap up
1. Sam. Sam's heaven is escaping, getting away from an overbearing family. I think he doesn't have a good sense of self because he hasn't been allowed to develop one, really, and he wants it. Also that makes him hard to make a main character, but that means the writers don't like him
how the fuck did you set up a main character and then hate him because you're projecting on your secondary protagonist so hard, how did you do that
HE'S THE ANTICHRIST HOW DID YOU-
2. Dean. ok. So. Dean's things centered around family, but importantly, they were all bittersweet. "dad would never let us" "dad still loves you" Dean has Very Severe Daddy Issues, as we know, and it's clear that they're everywhere. But due to the responsibility, it was a lot better when they lived in a stable goddamn house, so I think that's what he ended up mythologizing. also very clear abandonment issues, as he got blamed for everything due to stepping up as the oldest both in an absent dad, and dead mom scenario. as little of a personality that Sam was allowed to develop, Dean is still in this kind of panicked survival mode, and he really has no idea what the fuck he's doing. or so I think. he hates himself because he made himself to be what others wanted/needed.
I can't believe that implied abuse line was this early and they still tried to martyr John like...
3. Ash! Pamela! I liked that Ash keeps greeting the winchesters, I love Pamela being there, i liked the whole like...they vibe in heaven, but Ash, with knowing Heaven stuff and Smart Person stuff and hunter stuff, figured out how to jump, i love everyone's little slice of heaven. Listen, recognizing recurring characters is nice
4. THE VIBE. Ok...asphalt road to the garden. Several different heavens? the angels having complete dominion and them basically quietly fighting over it? Cas only being able to talk either on radio or TV because he's a wavelength? GOOD SHIT
HELL EVEN THE GARDEN BEING WHATEVER THE PERSON THINKS IT IS IS COOL
5. Needledrop: this one was so fun. knocking on heaven's door to introduce the fact that they're now in heaven. I thought that was fun.
6. Cas/faith. Like...God as an explicit Deadbeat, as the "it's not my problem, Dean sympathizing with Cas because of it, throwing away the amulet at the end.
Dean's the faithless man and Cas is the angel, but they have no more faith anymore. They have been disappointed once again, and it's Pretty Big, and bringing yourself up is hard.
also this episode had some genuinely funny moments
