So I’m currently re-watching The Benders, and I’m going to need someone who can gif to do a thing.
Because you know that scene in Kugel’s Keg, just before Sam goes outside and gets taken by the Benders? There’s this exchange:
SAM: Look, Dean, I don’t know if this is our kind of gig either.
DEAN: Yeah, you’re right. We should ask around more tomorrow.
Dean looks at Sam while he speaks, but then he shifts his gaze and winks at someone over by the pool table. Just as he steps under the “Men’s” sign.
A few seconds later he tells Sam he’s going to take a leak, and when he eventually goes outside to discover Sam has disappeared, he asks some people if they’ve been outside in the last hour or so.
HMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Ha!
I just went back to look (I can’t gif but eh, screenshots can help you for for now until someone more talented comes along :P)…
Their table is right next to the pool table manned by like 5 different burly guys all with pool cues (I have no idea what they’re playing):
This is Dean looking over his shoulder apparently at Sam while questioning him about various body-snatching monsters:
A moment later walking back towards him he looks Sam dead on and his eye line is more direct and downwards; the camera angle is slightly different to the previous screen cap so it makes the above image harder to say where Dean was looking, but this is definitely eye contact with Sam:
He looks up and away to his right/Sam’s left/the pool table, breaking the eye contact he had with Sam to look elsewhere (his eyes turn as well, so he’s not just turning his head to direct a wink at him, as he’d keep eye contact with Sam, at least so far as all my experience of winking ever goes):
And then as he keeps on moving past the camera and turning more away from Sam, he winks (wow it is impossible to get nice screenshots of him doing it. 😛 Offered for scientific purposes as comparison to the last 2 screenshots and not for the chronicles of good pictures of him):
And then we have this:
“Saw a motel…” Sam tells him and Dean says, “Woah, woah, easy, let’s have another round.”
With a return to the earlier angle where it wasn’t clear if he was looking at Sam or not:
Oh, no, wait, THIS is what he looks like looking at Sam from this angle:
And then he does the bit where he says he’s going to stay a minute longer and loses an hour.
Conclusion: Something is really fascinating off and up to Sam’s left and Dean sucks at time management.
*jumps in* Here ya go! (I have some time to kill and a new found ability to gif :D) You can definitely see the moment he looks away from Sam to something over his shoulder and winks.
I’d just like to point out that this is a John Shiban episode and he rolled with bisexual Dean more than anybody in the history of the show has ever rolled with it.
Dean Winchester in the men’s room, for an hour or so.
I love the wave of season 1 queer subtext that is happening lately
So check out the sign that was next to the darts board Dean was shooting darts at:
Thursday Night Meat Draw.
“they can’t make him be bisexual out of the blue after 11 seasons!!!!!!!!”
Well, they have a point, we don’t actually see Dean suck a dick.
We see him fondle a dude’s hip bone in the episode, though.
At length.
A dude’s hip bone. Where the penis attaches. We see that in this episode.
OH GOD I NEVER CAUGHT THAT now my life is complete
Do you know what completely blind-sided me about this glorious John Shiban masterpiece? I finally figured out why the fuck it all happens in HIBBING.
This is one of my fave Bi!Dean posts. S1 was Bi!Dean-laden, ergo Dean was bisexual from the start; this shouldn’t blindside y’all (especially in S13) unless you’re a G.A. Straight!Dean stan lol
