That's exactly how I saw it. To be honest I think the people who had a problem with it just have big problems with this season in general - they think it's just so "off", that the boys have changed so much and they hate the girls, etc. etc. I wrote up some discussion about it in my LJ. I'm not getting in the middle of any of that. Not gonna do a repeat of the Stargate stuff. I'm sticking to the mostly positive discussions.

Yeah, I'd thought they'd keep it in the car. I guess they could have felt it was safer there. Who knows, I guess...

I was a little confused there too. I know Sam said that Dean can't be saved because he doesn't want to be saved, but it seemed like there was more to it than that. I didn't think Sam was privy to that whole "Dean will become a demon" discussion, unless Ruby shared it with him at some other time (though I don't know how likely that is). I don't see Dean telling him that either. It's weird...
