That's just how Castiel rolls. A production draft from 'The End.'

Good God, can you believe this was supposed to be in the script? Is this for real?

Who is Castiel supposed to be talking to in this scene? Himself?

There was so much potential there for years of stories, but it would have required a tremendous amount of committed effort. If Kripke hadn't insisted on sticking to his "Swan Song" guns, we could have had a truly evil Sam, a real apocalypse and some unbelievably kickassery from Dean and Castiel. They had the chance to make this show as complex and challenging as Battlestar Galactica,

This, this!

Exactly what I was thinking when I finally saw The End, a glimmer of an AU that could have presented so many interesting possibilities for the show and allowed it to evolve instead of constantly rehashing variations on the same Sam is he or isn't he plots. Would have taken guts to actually take him all the way to evil with Dean and Cas hanging onto each other in a truly apocalyptic world, trying and maybe or maybe not succeeding to either redeem Sam or end Sam.

I had the same thought when Sam strangled Dean in that hotel room, it was an inkling of what could have happened if they had gone this route.

I have still seen only a handful of S6, and not all of those episodes in their entirety, but if they were going to go the route of soulless Sam anyway, it would have worked so much better in a The End kind of universe than the lame out of left field S6 plots and the myriad hoops they had to jump through in S6 to explain why Sam was the way he was and how they were going to save him etc etc.

And Gamble could've still had her souped up Sam on steroids.

Going this route would have offered so much possibility to everyone, that as Season 5 began to wind down to its close, I honestly thought this was where they were heading. Alas, fat chance. Look, I understand it would have been a really risky move that might have alienated some of the viewers, and it may have had some cost implications, but wow, it would have been so worth it.
