Hey Helen. :) Always glad to help out. Yeah, the overall direction of this season is lacking, to say the least, which is especially confusing since last season was so strong when it came to consistency and direction - and that was the same staff of writers. I don't think this season is salvageable for me anymore. /sigh Anyway I am happy that I could give you some insight at what the writers tried to do. I mean, at least that's what I think they were trying to do, but man, they really missed their mark.
For me it was really the moment where Gary almost trashed the car, because he couldn't drive. That one would never have slipped past Dean, never! But yeah, if they had played it more subtle, with Sam's base habits not quite as changed, I could have rationalised Dean catching on so late away. Alas, they wanted the comedy and thus compromised the believability of their premise. Sometimes, these writers really shoot themselves in the foot.
Oh, and sure, send your friends over, the more the merrier. LOL
