I thought: "that's nice that Dean's bounding with a guy. That had never happened before." (kids and women, yes. Men? Not so.)

Oh, it did. With Gordon and a little bit with Sarge in Croatoan, they had a nice rapport but Gordon comes probably closest in that Dean found he has found a "buddy" he could talk to.

Hell yes! And I'm so excited about it!

Such a fresh breeze to hear that. I think some fans absolutely can't deal with the idea that their favourite can fall and still be a hero in the end.
