Episode 7.05 Shut Up, Dr. Phil
Manage episode 383041085 series 2995511
Bucklemming is back, and for them this one is actually pretty enjoyable, so I'll take it. Plus you can't be mad about Spike and Cordelia as feuding witches.
Dean's guilt is still getting the better of them, and Sam is pushing way too hard trying to make Dean talk about his feelings. I'm sure that won't lead to a catastrophic personal situation for them... This episode is pretty good at pointing out some of the foundations of Performing Dean, though, so credit where that's due. And for a guy that wants his brother to open up, Sam can get pretty snarky and judgmental in the few moments that Dean actually does. It doesn't give Dean a lot of incentive to actually show his feelings.
Especially when half those feelings are worry over Sam (even if this episode doesn't really show it much, we shouldn't forget he's still hallucifering it up in there), half are worry and turmoil over the nebulous situation they've found themselves in (the leviathan, having lost Cas, having lost Bobby's house as a home base, etc.), and half are just plain old guilt. (yes that's three halves, Dean has a LOT of feelings, okay?)
