#sam's pov is unreliable (as is the pov of many chars. they are only seeing a limited perspective. we see more.)

DEAN grabs his jacket and keys and starts for the door. SAM Dean, where're you going? DEAN I'm going to go get a drink. Alone.
*in sam's mind* oh no, there he goes again, using alcohol to #cope with his feelings instead of tALkINg to mE
reality: dean just says that to get sam off his back and then....continues working the case
#sam's pov is unreliable (as is the pov of many chars. they are only seeing a limited perspective. we see more.)#his pov ends there but we as the audience see that dean isn't going out for a drink. he's working the case.#this is a very straightforward example but this happens over and over again throughout the show esp w/ regards to dean#sam perceives one thing. and then we are shown something else entirely.#but often ppl will just remember what sam perceived and forget abt what actually happened on screen#esp if sam continues to hammer home his version of events#vics spn rewatch#spn 2x04
