1. I love Dean's smile. Lookit! I mean, come on – how adorable is that?
You know, I normally wouldn't associate the word "adorable" with a full-grown man, but Dean...seriously is. I just want to go around giving him hugs.
2. I love the look on Sam's face as he listens to Dean baring his soul to Lucas, not caring about the audience, focused wholly on trying to reach that traumatised and withdrawn little boy.
I think, for me, this is where I think Sam starts to get to know his brother as a man, not just his big brother. Because I doubt Sam let himself think about his family at Stanford, so at 22 he's still remembering his family like he's 18 and angry with the world.
4. I love how pretty both brothers look in that opening argument in the diner.
This episode has really beautiful screenshots - the boys' eyes are so utterly gorgeous.
9. "Watching one of your parents die isn't something you just get over."
And this always gets me curious - in the Pilot, little Dean is out in the hallway that night; so how much did he really see? I'm sure he imagined it plenty of times, but it makes me curious. And, if he didn't see his mother burn to death, I'm sure seeing Jess on the ceiling didn't help - because suddenly he had a body to put his mother's face on. It must have been horrifying.
10. I really love that sequence of Dean surfacing from the lake with Lucas in his arms...I also love that JA really isn't acting those huge gasps for breath, having been held underwater until the shot was right!
I love that sequence too - Dean is a Big Damn Hero. Also, didn't JA say that he was very freaked out for that scene, esp. since he had this kid in his arms and was worried? ♥
