We debated on whether to include the "death" warning or not, but since the first chapter, everyone thinks he's dead, we figured better safe than sorry. And, I'll admit, wanting the Jason reveal to be a little bit of a surprise, because amnesia is so "writer's cliche #5." We figured if we were doing it, we'd better make it worth a reader's time.

The demons are kind of holding back to see what he's up to, thinking that he'd never leave Sam unprotected unless he's going for something important. And if it's that important to Dean Winchester...it's gotta be bad for demons.

It might be awhile before he runs into Sam again--we've got a ways to go before we give Dean a break.
