spn 6.06 "You Can't Handle the Truth"

[the_milky_way]

Sam's so lying.



Oh people are telling her the truth now? This is creepy.
Oh gun.... Ouch.

I love that Dean cares so much about Sam again. He's worried and he's angry.

"Just don't shoot him yet, alright?"

Oh man... this is not good.
"He's your case."

Sam's so eager to work. Maybe he's nothing else to care about? It's interesting.

Sam knows she is lying. His look at her. Intense.
Oh Sam, so smug.. and that is just creepy.

Alos, the hair? What is it with that?

Oh, separate door closing again. Boys are out of sync.

Dentist... oh, you should never do that when you are int he seat. EeeWwwww!!!! Ewwwww!
Okay, I've hated going to the dentist before but this... Thanks for that show.

"Maybe, it's just Sam."
Ouch. Bobby has a point though. Could Dean handle it if it's really just Sam and nothing supernatural?

"You mean, the non-sexy kind of drilling."
That's so Dean but then he wants to do research. Sam looks confused just there.

Doppelganger. Yeah, well Dean is looking into everything.

Harry's House of Horns. Interesting name.

I love how Dean talks Castiel down.

Well, at least Sam's not Lucifer.

"I'm at War."
Nice. So Castiel can't afford to be human anymore.

Dean's is not so convinced that Castiel might actually find something.

Oh, oh.. they just have to say that they want the truth. And now Dean just did.

Damn... but you I think I know what he'll use it for. Oh boy, this doesn't sound good for Sam.

Haha, Dean's reaction to the woman and her confession. Oh Dean, that's just so Dean.

OMG, he's calling Bobby to test his theory. And Bobby is telling him everything. OMG...

Thank you Jensen for making me laugh...

Sam is acting out of instincts there I think. Seems like he doesn't really know how to show compassion ... since when?

Lisa... she is telling him the truth now. And I guess Dean can't really tell her but she knows about the supernatural, why can't he? But she's right. Dean's burying everything but Ouch... as long as Sam is in his life he's never gonna be happy?? Ouch.. ouch...
Co-dependent still and Dean knows it. This hurts. But this end of things kinda makes sense. Oh Dean...

Confrontation.

SAM IS LYING! It's obvious but Jared is doing this in an amazing way.
This hurts.

Sammy. It's Sammy again.

But God, I wish I know what's wrong with him. Because there is something wrong with him.

Freaky and mean. You ask for the truth and in the end it kills you because you can't take it. Some things you just don't want to hear.

TV. Of course.

Sam's way too focused.Creepy.

This house is... so not my taste but interesting.

Cats.

Ewwww... Ewww.. So that's where the bodies are.

Boys are bound and Sam gets chocked. That's SPN for me. Yes, I know...

Oh man, way to show the creepy stuff. I think I'm a little sick now. Oh man, just the sounds are yuck...

Ouch.
"I wanted to kill him in his sleep. I though he was a monster."

"I'm a killer."

Sam is lying. And she knows it.

"You're not human."

Ouch.

And he still gets the knife to Dean. Instincts? He's still so turned into Dean that this still works.

Shit and Sam is now telling the truth.

"Nothing scares me anymore because I can't feel it."

Damn. He's asking for help. Does he mean it? I hope so.

Dean!! DEAN!!!!!
Stop! Dean Stop.

That's the end? That's the end, really????

Okay this? This was a good episode. It had everything. Funny scenes, Dean caring scenes, Sam being Sam and then not!Sam, Monster of the Week and last but not least a little truth about Sam in the end. This is how I want my show to be. It was ups and downs and it went so fast sometimes that I had to look at the clock and wonder where the time is going. I was little spoiled for it but all in all I knew almost nothing, which really made the difference. I could enjoy and fret, be angry and laugh. It's all I want from my show. I hate digging to deep into it and making myself over analyze stuff.

This time though I'm quite smug about the fact that I was sort of right about Sam. He can't feel a thing, he's acting. He's acting on instincts and on what he supposes is the right way to react. You already could see it in earlier eps but here it was obvious. The way he couldn't really show sympathy for the victim's sister, or the way he tried to come over as insecure and honest when Dean confronted him. There was always a little thing off, not much, not too bad to draw a conclusion but in the end it made sense.
Sam is still Sam but there is a huge part of him missing. And I guess it's really obvious what it is. More about that in the end, so be aware if mild spoilers.. :)

And Dean. Oh Dean, so many truths to handle and he doesn't really know how to. He has no idea how to comprehend everything or to even try and deal with things. First Lisa telling him what he already knows but hearing it still hurts so much. You just can see how he realizes how true it all is. He's bound to Sam in a very unhealthy way, always has been and it won't change. But honestly, I think some of the things she said were due to her own feelings on not so much based on facts/truth. People say what they think here and it's not always really The Truth. I do think Dean can be happy even with Sam in his life, but for that to happen Heaven and Hell first have to stop messing around with the brothers.

Dean still cares so damn much and in the end it all breaks free. He's buried things for so long, no way to let them out and with the facts presented he just breaks. It's human.
It broke my heart a little to see it in the end. But I guess he needs Sam to be there and under his watch.

Jared did an awesome job here. The line between being obvious and not too obvious to Dean about the lying thing is very fine and he hit it perfectly.

SPOILER FOR NEXT WEEK:

So of course it's his soul. It's what makes him human. Sam's lost without it, can be manipulated in certain ways. I guess that will be one of the main themes this season? The hunt for Sam's soul and how to get it back? It's an interesting premise and might explain why his body is back. However has his soul hasn't allowed it to stay in the cage with Lucifer.

I knew it was his soul too. it made sense.

I really liked the episode because like you said it had it all.
and I'm so freaking happy finally everything is out there because it's the only way the boys can start to fix it.

the finale was very harsh. I understand Dean. I do, but I think he kinda lost it in the end... :/

[the_milky_way]

Yes, it does make sense...

I liked it, too, because we actually got something, some answers. I know it will take a while for them to try and fix it but I hope they will in the end.

It was harsh but Dean just lost it... Lisa is right, he has it all bottled up.

It really did have everything a good episode needs :) I'm really happy with the latest episodes - and I feel like the season is really picking up :)

You're right, Jared's really been doing a good job! He's been playing this Sam really well! :D

[the_milky_way]

Yeah, I feel like this season is picking up quite nicvely and I'm looking forweard to the next eps each week... haven't had that in a while... :)

*nods*
Yes, it's still kinda Sam (even if he's reacting or acting on instincts and not feelings) and then it's not really Sam in some moments. That's all Jared there...
