OMG, I adore that ep way more than I know I should. I fast-forward through all the water-monster-spirit stuff and get to the Dean-with-the-kid every time. Because... *handwave* yes. It breaks me. And makes my ovaries ache.
he realizes that Dean never opens to HIM like that. See, but the thing is? He does it IN FRONT of Sam. Dean does a lot of things where he knows Sam can hear/see so that he doesn't have to say/show them *to* Sam precisely, while still letting him know. Then as the series progresses, he speaks with him more and more directly until we have the scenes in Something Wicked where he comes out and tells him all about the night the Striga tried to get Sam. Then he moves away to the window to wibble and get teary and look hotter than anyone should have a right to EVER but he's still out loud about it.
*happy sigh* This is why I adore our show so much. The character consistency and development is almost entirely...well, consistent. And a lot of Dean's arc this season has been about opening himself up (wow, if you're me that's SO DIRTY) to Sam. ONLY Sam, yes. But Sam.
