NO SPOIL I.

This contains Speculation only, and reviews of the situation through 4.18, in response to

lemmings_ post over at spn_heavymeta.

I'm always about Redemption. So in my fantasy, Dean will have to make a choice being spilling blood and having mercy, and by having mercy, he will win.
( (but it probably won't feel that way to him). )

MY RESPONSE TO 4.17,
WITH LINGERING RESPONSES TO 4.16,
AND EVEN 4.15!
AND THE BRILLIANCE OF SAM IN S4 IN GENERAL.

This is a lot of different trains of thought, drawn from my comments to lots of folks' awesome meta posts -- so sorry if it's a bit of a ramble! I'm trying to talk about Sam and his motivations in recent episodes, and how much I love him in s4.

As a starryeyed deangrrl, s4 has convinced me wholeheartedly to love Sam.

His arc this season follows perfectly from the Sammy we first came to know and love in Mystery Spot -- this really is the hunter Sam becomes. Remember Jus in Bello, how Sam watched and protected Dean, after he finally understood how breakable his invincible big brother could be.

S4 brings all that into play, and more. What's at stake in this season is the Hunter Sam will become, and whether Dean will ever see himself as a Hero again.
