It was an emotional family reunion, indeed. Dean wished for the thing he wanted most on Supernatural Season 14 Episode 13, and it wasn't getting Michael out of his head. It was a surprise to both Sam and Dean when John Winchester showed up, but it was everything both of them needed, especially Dean. Having his family back together gave Dean a new level of strength that he'll be calling on as he fights to rid himself of Michael, but Michael wasn't a problem he was thinking about this hour. Dean had his dad back, and he wasn't going to let anything ruin the moment.

He's seen enough strange things in his life that what and how it all happened didn't surprise him. He was just glad to be back with his boys -- and Mary. The best moment of the entire hour and the one that made my heart completely explode was his reunion with Mary. Their kiss was everything. What made it even better was Dean and Sam witnessing such a tender exchange between their parents.

But as always happens in Sam and Dean's world, the good stuff never lasts. Sam knew that John's appearance would be messing with time and that it would cause problems although he didn't know what exactly. Deep down, Dean knew it too, but he didn't want to deal with it. At least not until after the family dinner. Related: Enjoy UNLIMITED access to thousands of Movies and TV shows with Amazon Prime Video. WATCH ANYWHERE. CANCEL ANYTIME! Sam could have pushed Dean to do something about the issue immediately, but he saw how much his brother wanted to enjoy the moment. Delaying the inevitable also gave Sam a chance to make amends with this father. He was able to tell John all the things he never had a chance to before. I'm good with who I am. I'm good with who you are. Because our lives? They're ours and maybe I'm too damn old to change that. Dean Permalink: I'm good with who I am. I'm good with who you are. Because our lives?

It was an opportunity for all of them to clean the slate so to speak. For Sam and Dean especially, ridding themselves of some of their regrets in relation to their dad will give them a clearer head for the battles yet to come. It also helped Dean realize that he was okay with who he is and how his life turned out. We're legacies because of you. Sam Permalink: We're legacies because of you. Permalink: We're legacies because of you. The same with Sam. Did he really want to be a lawyer talking about hobbies and kale? Not hardly.

It's something they've questioned numerous times before, but John's appearance gave them clarity and closure. It's an end, but also a beginning. Still, having to say goodbye to John was heart-wrenching. I'm not ashamed to say that I cried when they all said their goodbyes. Hell, I cried at almost everything that happened this hour, but Sam smashing that pearl was devastating.

Even though he thought it was all a dream, the idea that he has remnants of the extraordinary experience he had in the future was a great way to close out John Winchester's chapter on Supernatural. Odds and Ends Sam and Dean having to fight off John Wayne Gacy's ghost was epic. Does anyone else wonder what happens when you pull the string on the bear? It might be something the brothers encounter in a future episode. Cas coming back as Zachariah's badass angel made me realize that the Cas we have now is much better than the Cas of 2003. Dean charming the mail lady was classic Dean much to Sam's disgust. We definitely need more moments like that. What will Sam and Dean do with all those objects they collected at the pawn shop? Will Sam and Dean tell Cas about their father's return? Who do you think is really responsible for John Winchester's return? Was it really a deep-seated Dean desire or was there something or someone else behind it? What did you think of "Lebanon"? Was it everything you expected? What would you have liked to have seen? What's next for Sam and Dean? How will they deal with the problem of Michael now? Hit the comments and share your thoughts!

All Rights Reserved. Supernatural Episode 300 will be a special one with the return of John Winchester. How can you watch online? We have the details. Supernatural episode No. 300 airs tonight. It’s such an incredible milestone that few television shows have been able to achieve. You knew the 300th episode had to be special. They couldn’t have let this one go without something truly spectacular and the way the writers have decided to do that is by bringing back John Winchester. This isn’t a spoiler as the news has been out there for a few weeks. As Supernatural fans, we wondered if there was a way to bring John back after all this time. After all, we have gotten Mary back. With Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s busy scheduled, it would be difficult, but JDM never forgot the fandom (having been to SPN conventions) and is still good friends with others from Supernatural such as Jensen Ackles. While I personally didn’t think it would happen because so much time as happened, the writers managed to find a way. So tonight’s episode of Supernatural is a must-watch for all fans whether they’re old or new. I have my theories as to why John Winchester has come back, but I am going to keep that one to myself for now. But I suspect it will be in a way that will save our heroes to give them another shot at saving the world at another time. After the last five minutes of last week’s episode, I can only imagine the amount of tissues we are going to need for this one as we get a reunion of the Winchester family in a way none of us have ever had before. Here’s the synopsis of Supernatural Season 14, Episode 13 “Lebanon,” and see details below on how you can watch it online: Sam and Dean look to occult lore for a solution to their latest problem, but instead of a resolution, they find much more than either of them had anticipated.
