Watched the SPN season premiere again. And SO MANY QUESTIONS!

Here's my speculation at this point.

1. Regarding what Dean said about Cas--"Cas didn't make it. Something happened to him down there. Things got pretty hairy toward the end, and he just let go." Here's what I think:

Dean and Benny found Cas. Since Dean is a vessel, Dean's intent was to carry Cas and Benny both out of Purgatory. As Benny said, though, three's a crowd, and it didn't work. Carrying two extra souls somehow prevented him from going through the portal, or it started killing Dean, and in the end, to allow Dean the opportunity to cross back over, Castiel let go. (Either that, or Benny forced Cas out.) Just as Dean was crossing back into the real world, he looked back and saw Castiel being overwhelmed by nasties. But it was too late.

2. As for Dean and Benny's conversation at the end of the ep: Dean doesn't regret whatever it is they had to do to get back. Benny is overwhelmed by the choices. "So many choices." The way he's eyeing the people at the funeral, and the fact that he's a vampire, I can only assume he's talking about all the human blood that's now available to him. Dean understands this, and tells Benny, "One day at at time" and "You got an emergency, you call me. You understand?" It sounds like an AA sponsor, yeah? Like Benny's on the wagon, being faced with a planetary population of hemoglobin. It could also be Dean's promise to come to Benny's aid should he run into hunters.

Benny then tells Dean to keep his nose clean, too. So Dean's fighting some sort of something of his own. Maybe he promised Benny he wouldn't hunt vampires? o.O Or wouldn't run the risk of letting Dick out by trying to free Cas? Whatever it is, this season, so far, looks pretty darn intriguing.

Yeah, that comment about Dean keeping his nose clean probably intrigues me the most too!

I honestly have no speculations about it- I try not to come up with too many theories anyway though.

I don't have enough information or imagination to make a confident guess as to what Dean needs to avoid. But I am totally intrigued.

And I've now got a fic idea (that will probably not see the light of day) as to what Dean might have meant by "emergency" and "call me."

SO MANY QUESTIONS!

I had the same thought about cas. I think he literally let go. Letting Dean a chance to break through. And if we're right it's so awesome and redeems cas in my eyes. But now we need cas back too.

As for thought #2 i have to say i'm so intrigued by why Dean has to keep his nose clean. I won't blame him for anything cause he had to do impossible things to survive but i'm still intrigued.

I'm very intrigued as to what was meant by Dean keeping his nose clean, too.

SO MANY QUESTIONS! I'm so looking forward to the next ep.

Very interesting theories! All I know is, I'm really looking forward to seeing how it plays out.

...I bet trying to get Cas out failed because angels do not actually have souls. Anna did, I think, but she was human for a while. Cas never was. If Jimmy was in there, Dean could have given him a lift, but I've lost count of how many points there've been at which it is entirely possible that Jimmy was there till that point and not thereafter.

It has indeed been established that angels don't have souls. This makes me wonder if Purgatory would register Castiel's presence at all. Interesting. And yeah, keeping track of Jimmy has been problematic. Oy.

It's a very intriguing set up for sure. I even think that we can't take Sam's word and something happened with him that made him quit it all but he's just not telling Dean.

So yeah, lots of very interesting things ahead, I hope. :-)

Oh, there is way more to what's up with Sam. At best, he got guilted into taking in a stray dog and sidetracked from investigating what happened to Dean. Given his track record, I'm thinking it can't be that cut and dried.

SO MANY QUESTIONS!

I'm really looking forward to the next episode.
