Dean isn’t a dick - he’s a textbook case of grief. The anger, the withdrawal, the lashing out. This isn’t out of character, it’s a reflection of a human being in pain. It isn’t pretty but it’s real.

And their argument at the end? Remember that Sam is the only safe “spot” for Dean to show his emotions - even Jody only gets the “things are dandy” response. Being the recipient of that anger and pain isn’t easy but it’s real.

I’m glad for Sam saying what he did. It’s about time he lost his cool and showed some anger. When Dean loses himself in emotion or denial, Sam counter balances it too far at times by being Supportive and trying to solve the Problem (whether it’s to remove the Mark or train the Nephilim).

The angrier Dean gets, the more supportive and/or accommodative Sam becomes, like an emotional seesaw. Sam pushing back and getting angry means the dynamic is changing.

This kind of conflict is why I watch. If Sam and Dean were always perfect and in sync with each other, the show would be pretty boring.

  2. zeffiroh said: And Sam has strong principles, the whole story is building towards dean letting go of his anger, feeling guilty for all he’s done and then forgiving him self, and apologizing, as sam stands up, he protects dean, and dean realizes this not to be a weakness, cas teaches him love. and we see the unsaid things, where the brothers realized each othr’s pain, not dean asking sam to fight, but the opp.
