The Winchesters: Was what Dean did to Sam necessary?
Was it brutal? Yes. Was it unnecessary? Yes. Was it understandable? Hell yes!
Considering how dangerous the Hunting lifestyle is, Sam placed Dean's life in more danger by lying to him. Of course, this isn't the first time but it does seem to be a pattern with Sam with holding back info. from his brother. Which is kinda ironic considering he's always asking his brother to open up to him but he fails to do the same thing.
Losing his soul may have made Sam a better hunter but it's also made him a worse human being. It's taken away all his good qualities and brought out all his bad ones enforced.
I think this eps. brings up a valid point about honesty and truth. Sometimes, as much as we want to be honest with ourselves and others, it's more comfortable to be believe in a lie.
He really should be taking what Bobby scolded them about being selfish into account, especially with others who also have helped them time and again in the past like Castiel. I understand Dean doesn't really know how to articulate his feelings properly and ends up lashing out in this manner, but did you see Castiel's confused-hurt expression on his face?
Word! I think this is a failing that both Dean and Sam have where they got so wrapped in their own issues that they fail to realize that other people have problems.
Like I said elsewhere, Castiel and Dean are fighting the same war just from different sides. They are both independent and stubborn and expect so much out of each other and then get disappointed when they fail to be what the other wants. It's just sad.
Still, it's nice to have confirmation that they are still friends. Here's hoping that as the season goes on, Dean and Sam can pay Castiel back by helping him for a change.
++ Needed more Castiel though, I'm just saying. However....
