Look at these dorks. I can’t believe they actually manage to get a season finished with all these shenanigans! (x)

This scene was so important in the episode, you guys.

We don’t see the shorts, at all. We don’t see Dean wearing them.

We hear Sam Winchester make mention of the shorts. We hear Sam asking Dean whether he is wearing shorts.

Dean doesn’t confirm that he is wearing shorts textually, he evades the comment with “It’s a free bunker“. Dean does not give actual unambiguous verbal confirmation that he is wearing shorts.

And yet, Jensen Ackles was wearing the shorts while they were filming. He was wearing the shorts all along, even though the textual support is meagre and open for interpretation.

And there was absolutely no one out there claiming that Dean wasn’t wearing them.

Interestingly, there was also no reason for Jensen to be wearing shorts, since we never saw them. So why would Jensen wear shorts, or the costume department give him any, knowing that there is no textual confirmation he’s wearing shorts at all?

What’s also interesting is that this decision was made by the director – based on the script alone, they could just as easily have shown us Dean in his short shorts.
