#jensen let me study you
Here I am, back on my obsession with Dean’s clothing and able to put it to good use.
We see Dean in the trailer not looking exactly like we know him. However, we know his outfit.
He is wearing his black denim jacket, light denim shirt and mid blue jeans. I am guessing this is heaven by the license plate but it is not his heaven outfit from 15x20.
Dean has had the jacket since s11 and wore it in s15 for
- 15x04 Atomic Monsters
- 15x08 Our Father Who Aren’t in Heaven
- 15x09 The Trap
The shirt was new for s15 and worn in :
- 15x04 Atomic Monsters
- 15x08 Our Father Who Aren’t in Heaven
- 15x09 The Trap
- 15x14 The Last Holiday
- 15x15 Gimme Shelter
- 15x20 Carry On
While they were both in Atomic Monsters (directed by Jackles himself) they were not worn together. They were worn together in 15x08 and 15x09. Yes, this outfit travels to both hell and purgatory.
And Jensen finds it so significant that he decided Dean would wear it the first time we see him in The Winchesters.
I also want to note that it was worn in 15x04 to kill a vampire. And Dean died on a Vampire Hunt. In this case the parents were getting him human blood. They said Sam and Dean couldn’t understand because they are not parents. “We just wanted him to have a normal life”. Can’t help but think this could take on new meaning with the prequel.
It was also interspersed with Chuck and Becky with this memorable scene
BECKY: Okay. If I had to give one note… the jeopardy, Chuck. It’s feeling a little… thin? Low stakes? It’s fun to hear the boys’ voices, but a story is only as good as its villain, and these villains are just not feeling very… dangerous? Not to mention, there’s no classic rock. No one even mentions Cas. The climax is a little stale. Boys tied up again while we get the villain’s monologue, which, frankly, isn’t one of your best. A little originality wouldn’t… hurt.
I don’t think I need to remind everyone about all the Atomic Monsters theories. “It’s awful! Horrible. It’s hopeless.” They’re not dead. They’re just away”.
The shirt I believe to be the one Dean died in. He changed into it and his death jacket for his final hunt.
I think I might have an idea now for something I had no clue about before. I noted before on my post about Dean’s Cursed Heaven Outfit that on the video Jensen posted as he was dressing up as Dean for the last time “at least for now” he was not wearing the jacket Dean wore in Heaven. He was wearing Dean’s black denim jacket, not the heaven one.
These are NOT the same jackets. The sleeves sit different, pockets are different shapes, there is not the same seams on the heaven one etc.
I could never figure out why Jensen would be dressing as Dean in a near identical outfit that we never see. Now I wonder if Dean coded Jensen managed to film something way back in September 2020 for the prequel? The scenes filmed on that final day were the roadhouse, driving and the bridge. I think it might be possible he switched jackets at some point. And maybe this was when Jensen stole it from set!
Seeing this trailer I am more convinced than ever that the prequel is somehow going to lead to a continuation.
