The Dean/Sam conversation reminds me so much of Buffy's conversation with Dawn at the end of The Gift. Be brave. Live.
And there's Cas/Sam channeling Giles/Buffy - Lie to me.

The blemishes make her beautiful.
Dean is such a smart ass. Ooooo the devil isn't looking so good.
Whoa. Go Sam.
Shit. The devil isn't so clueless.
Big surprise.
Ok....are we now gonna have a Angelus/Angel/Faith-type Orpheus scenario?
I don't mind so much the rehashed Joss themes, because they are so damned good.
Ok - now where is Michael? Brother against brother. That's the way it's gotta be.
The devil is awful pretty now.

So - having missed a bunch of eps, I am trying to watch this finale nonetheless. So far, this is my fave line: "The Devil's in Detroit!" Heh....fits with the whole emphasis on the Impala. Hmmm....IMPALA. I wonder..... They do the opening montage so well. Love their use of Carry On My Wayward Son. I like the portrayal of Lucifer. He's so subtle and effective, when he wants to be. Really knows how to start to get under Sam's skin . . . but Sam will battle back. Yes, there is something going on with the Impala. I don't watch this enough and didn't really hear what the narrator was saying at the beginning of the ep, about the former owner, to take a guess of any kind. But they could be setting us up for the Impala having a role in this. The meaning of "impala": "A medium-sized African antelope" "When frightened or startled the whole impala herd starts leaping about in order to confuse their predator." Huh - can we expect the Impala to try to create a distraction?

Stull CemeteryInteresting. "Two young men...and a car." So cool. This is what Supernatural has always been about. The supernatural folklore of the U.S.

And this is going to suck even worse. Nononononono...son of a bitch.

And the cheese stands alone. Ah. Not alone anymore. I wonder what is meant by "he won't see Bobby for a very long time." I mean - what is a "very long time," to the writers? Dean is finding some comfort. Good move - I mean, not to tough it out alone.

Ha. Endings ARE a raging pain in the ass. What would you rather have? Peace or freedom? LOL. Cas does suck at goodbyes. Dean made a promise to live a normal life. Whatever that means. Guess it means he'll try. They chose family.Nothing ever really ends. Oh boy. Nice cliffhanger 'ending.'

I'm thinking a very long time is at least a summer's worth...or maybe Dean will have a couple of sons and the whole thing will start all over sometime in the future.

I just read Mo Ryan's review of the episode, and I agreed with a lot of what she said. I really liked this: This show is about feelings. Yes, it's about red-blooded dudes riding around in their muscle car and killing monsters. But that's all for show. We know the truth, right?
All that stuff is a cover for a whole lot of gooey, extravagantly and unsuccessfully repressed feelings. It's honestly, at times, "Gilmore Girls" with extra added zombies.
And so, just to give the whole finale that extra added poignance we love so much, we got the prophet Chuck, who really felt like a stand-in for Kripke, telling us the story of the Metallicar. We already knew this, but it was still lovely hear him tell us it wasn't just a car, but a symbol of all those feelings. The car wasn't just a car, it was literally a vehicle for Sam and Dean's relationship; it transported them through their childhood and into their difficult youths and into their sometimes fractious adulthoods.
In other words, the show = the Impala.
And in conclusion: Hey Assbutt!
