Lest we forget… 

In The Born-Again Identity, we get to watch as Cas regains his memories, one by one. With each smiting, we get flashes of what he’s remembering. 

The first one is meeting Dean in a barn. 

The second is turning his back on heaven for Dean. 

The third is a series: tearing the wall down in Sam’s mind, opening the door to purgatory… and then turning to Dean and telling him he’s sorry. 

(And the fourth is one we don’t get to see.)

But when he’s done, he turns to Dean and says, “I remember you. I remember everything.”

…

Cas isn’t just everything to Dean. 

Dean is everything to Cas, too.
