People seem to be underestimating the importance of this episode. It really brings up an important point and actually makes the series seem more "realistic", in a sense.
I had been wondering for a while why Dean was able to eat all this junk food and stay in such good shape. When was the last time you saw either of them working out at all? A lot of people just come up with excuses like "they are always in the field frighting and moving". Well... no. Mostly its them driving around and talking to people with the occasional fight. This does not at all explain how they are still in such good form and never get sick.
So at one point I called it - Dean and Sam are not normal. They have essentially immortal via luck. How could they have survived all of this for that long? This is their power given to them by God.
Now, I didn't realize that it was because God was writing their story - I thought it was just some obscure luck based power, but close enough I guess. They are alive, because God allows it.
This has basically spoiled them and they are now acting like children when faced with everyday problems. It actually makes the show more realistic to me - they could do all that only because God had their back.
I wonder if they will stick to this idea or maybe backpedal a bit and show that God was not only not helping them now, but also messing with them (the car breaking down that often for instance is a bit odd). I guess we'll see.
