I wondered about that too. Is it just the unexplainable connection that drew him to her and she knows it always will? I doubt she called him as she wasn't in trouble and she hardly needed help escaping Crowley. Was he fooling himself when he convinced Sam that now is the time to strike with everything they have? Everything Dean? As in Rubys knife, Holy water, rocksalt, the Colt (oops scratch that), an angel blade or two or ten? Even Sam knew they weren't ready. It's like Dean isn't thinking straight because he's freaked over this magnetic pull from her. What it means and why it's there and that it seems to be getting stronger. And I'm not talking sexual.

Also, Amara’s burgundy rose colour has been consistently used so far this Season.

I noticed too that as she grows the color of her dress has been deepening from pale, baby pink for infant Amara, rose pink for child Amara, dark pink for tween Amara and now this very dark almost burgundy, brown for teen Amara. The color choices or her clothing seems quite deliberates and appear to be heading towards black, indicating that her malice and danger is increasing as she grows.

We need to understand how orange correlates to black. Demons = black souls. Angels have white light. Orange perhaps is what's inside Amara. Still don't think she's evil.

The second stain glass window... is it Cain and Abel?

References to earlier episodes. We're going to a version of the Endverse..
. Yes.

Jen. I'll try. I have seen it speculated on quite a bit. Both Dean as the dad and Dean and Amara having sex without the instant parenthood. Why predictable? Welp, Amara snatches Dean from the car, she says they are bound, they have sexy times and boom, baby Amara is born and she then dumps Dean out onto a flower covered patch in a field. Talk about a one night stand! Dean at least says "Adios!" ;) No, just no. Thinking about it logically: The woman is already pregnant but it takes The Darkness mating with Dean in order to enter the child in the womb or immediately after birth? Why would this all powerful force need to mate with Dean at all? More importantly if the child was already conceived, which she obviously was, then there is no way Dean could be the father, no matter what Jenny Jones says. ;)

It makes more sense - to me, but what do I know? ;) - that she had to use the child who was being born at the same time and nearest to her when she was freed. I can see her needing to manifest as a human in order to access our plane of existence, possibly because it was God's creation?

I'm not sure I'm even seeing sex between Dean and Amara in the storyline at all. I don't see where it's needed with the direction everything seems to be going so far. I keep thinking that in spite of what young Amara believes that once she grows in strength and adulthood that at that point Adult Amara/The Darkness will want to join Dean but as I said, in a less sexy, more in the Dark Charlie/GoodCha rlie way - in order to take on God. Remember both older and younger Amara have indicated they are interested in taking Him on. Or maybe she wants to get her bounding on cause Dean is just that damned sexy! ;). It does seem as the stronger Amara becomes on the Earth plane the stronger her hold over Dean grows. Maybe by the time she is Adult Amara he wont be able to resist her at all.

I have no idea where this is going and that's what's so damned exciting about it but what I do know? Please no "Dean, you ARE the father!"

Hi Jen. I'm going to throw my two cents in on this as well if you don't mind. I agree with AlyCat...it's predictable because many, many fans are expecting it, it's being discussed all over the boards. It seems almost too obvious to go there; Dean and Darkness meet in the mist and BOOM! There's a baby suddenly? Boo. Boring. And it's lazy because we've seen this storyline before with Dean's monster daughter in season 7. I didn't like that storyline then and I hate the idea of it even more now. And I do think it would irrevocably change the show; Sam has no place in the "Dean is Amara's father's" storyline. It singles him out and pushes everyone else into obscurity. How would that work? Dean and Amara become some kind of team and everyone else is left to flounder and try and fight that and save Dean at the same time? Didn't we just have 35 interminable episodes of that? I am hoping that this season is not a lame retread of all that stuff that didn't work in seasons 9 and 10 with a sprinkling of the worst from season 7 thrown in.

I agree with you. I think Dean's connection to the darkness is due to the MOC and it being the lock and key to her banishment. I still do not see their relationship as being sexual. It looks like woman Amara liked Dean and felt peaceful with him and the teen Amara was just trying to make sense or find an explanation for her strong draw/connection to him. I do not think Dean is the father of Amara as it makes no sense. Amara as the woman in the swirling Darkness and growing Amara are one in the same. Woman Amara told child Amara I am what you will become. I think Amara and the Darkness are also one in the same. As God and Light are one in the same. She is just the opposite of God/ Light. If SPN follows the Christian belief of God.... that He is the Alpha and Omega the beginning and the end, was and always will be; then neither God/ Amara have parents. They just always were. Darkness Amara took the form of child already conceived 9 months ago to come into this world. She seeks revenge on God. Like you, I find this storyline intriguing and look forward to discovering just how connected Dean is and how far it will go. It is hard to say. If Dean's connection to Amara is because of the MOC then we can look at that .... MOC was the lock and key made by God.... but it took on its own life and began corrupting. How this lock and key created by God to keep Darkness locked away was able to somehow corrupt means what? That Amara was able to slip Darkness through the door from the other side and corrupt the MOC and whittle away at her release? Dean is conflicted. he was the bearer of the MOC and is drawn to Amara and he was and will always be Sam's older brother and all that has meant since the beginning (of his life and maybe even time). I am pleased that the connection did not stop Dean from attempting to protect Sam. We also saw that look on Amara's face when Dean tried to kill her and she was NOT HAPPY;).

BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEANNNNN?!? Sorry, I was channeling Sam there for a moment.

No seriously, what does it mean. ;)
