Re: Aaron Piecre . . . THAT'S IT!!!! Thank you so much for solving that puzzle. It was gonna drive me freakin' insane.
Re: Jimmy . . . excellent observations all the way around. Because "be careful what you pray for" is very wise advice. (I've always thought the Lord's Prayer, particularly the part that says, "forgive me as I forgive those who do me wrong," was a very dangerous prayer to pray.)
Also, the ego thing can be so subtle. On the one hand, he's excited that God has chosen him for service. Otoh, I completely see what you're saying with the "I'm special." Then finding out exactly what that entails. I still see his tears at the table as more of a turning away from God--considering the storyline and characters we've got going--but your point is very well taken, indeed. And as I said, Jimmy's yelling at Castiel and at heaven shows relationship. Rather like Job landing into God about everything God let him go through. *nods*
I want Show to go out in the most awesome and satisfying way they can. I've heard mumbled rumors of the possibility of a sixth season (which I don't put much stock in right now because they haven't even started shooting S5 yet; let's not jump the gun, shall we?), but at this point, with all the build-up, what, exactly, are they supposed to do after they save the world from the Apocalypse? Go to Disney World?
Thanks so much for your post. Because, dude. What you said. *points*
