Another thing I absolutely loved was how Jensen acted in that scene when Castiel gets killed and then healed. He's glued to the spot. His brother is hurt, unconscious on the floor, and Dean doesn't know who to run to. While that moment is heartbreaking, I also found it very beautiful in terms of character development. Dean would lay down his own life for Castiel, sure, but this was Sam's life, and this time he didn't know, on instinct, who to check first. It's a huge step ahead in terms of how he defines his family, his universe has gotten bigger. Last season he told Castiel he needed him, because he needed someone to help with his brother, and that was HUGE, sharing that responsability, the responsability that in his mind defines who he is, with someone else. And now he even put Castiel on the same level as Sam. That's why that last scene hurts so freaking much.
And I have to admit, the one thing that scares me the most this season is imagining Sam's reaction upon learning the truth. Either Zeke pulls a Benny, and he's an awesome Freedom Fighter working on some elaborate plan of his own to keep the angels off the earth, and this way Sam could forgive him and decide to work alongside him, or it's going to be one immense, terrible downfall between the two brothers. *shudders*
