_{But can we just talk about this scene? We know that Dean has a reputation for being one of the most feared and greatest hunters out there. Word gets around, and fellow hunters know it. Dean may only have met Roy and Walt once or twice in his lifetime, yet both hunters are still aware of the dedication he has to protecting his brother. They know Dean can’t live without Sam, not only because he’ll go out of his way trying to bring his brother back, but because he’ll spend a lifetime tracking the culprits down. That’s why Walt’s line is so significant. “You wanna spend the rest of your life knowing Dean Winchester’s on your ass?” Not just a week, a month or a year. He knows that leaving Dean alive would lead him to a lifetime on the run, and if that isn’t a perfect representation of Dean’s loyalty and co-dependence on his brother, I don’t know what is.}
