But see, I saw Dean become a bit disillusioned with John at the end of season one. I don't think he's hero-worshipped him that hard at all lately. So, again, this episode was pointless to me. And the Sam=John thing was obvious since the very first episode.
And I don't see it driving enough of a wedge between them. They've already been running in the opposite direction from each other. The demonic powers thing is a MUCH bigger issue.
That's all I'm saying. This episode didn't bring in anything new. Dean may have been hurt, but I don't think he loved his dad any less.. or thought less of him for it. He defended John's (very Mary-like) reasons for keeping Adam out of things. He empathized. All Sam's behavior did was highlight where and why John (and now Sam) was so selfish and misguided. Dean already knew enough of that to call Sam on it.
So, I don't know. There were so many other paths up the side of that mountain, bb. Bringing in a new brother for all of 45 minutes was kind of... pointless.
If anything, it sort of made it all blatant... and laid it out, Cliff's Notes style. ^_~
