The problem is, it could have worked, you know. It's not like Sam and Dean's post-purgatory reactions have been out of the realm of possibilities, all they needed to make this newly formed conflict believable was a little bit of character work. Even with this lacklustre set-up, there have been plenty of opportunities to make it into something real and interesting. It really worries me that the writers seem to think that they don't need to explain anything and can just do whatever they want with the characters. :(
