Episode 66: 4.06 Yellow Fever
Where everything is scary. Poor Dean is infected with Ghost Sickness, forced to experience the fear of a murdered man. He’s infected not because he’s a dick, not because he uses fear as a weapon or scares people because of his job, because Sam does all of that too. He’s infected because he’s buried a terrible secret about himself-- one that he feels ashamed of. Times like this I’m glad I do an “all spoilers on the table” podcast, because it’s what he did in Hell and specifically the fact he’s covering it up that made him susceptible to experience the fear of a man who was literally tortured to death and then had his murder covered up by the men who committed or abetted it. It really makes the case in this episode look super on the nose, but only when you finally get the context of Dean’s true secrets from Hell. Which don’t hit us for a few more episodes yet...
There’s an awful lot to be said about this one, not least of which is Dean lip synching to Eye of the Tiger as a little bonus at the end of the episode. :’D

4.06, Yellow Fever, and our introduction to Andrew Dabb... through an examination of the power of Fear. Yes, Dean, you are haunted.
The "ghost sickness" that draws on Dean's own fears affects him, and not Sam, even though Sam was squirted directly in the face with supposedly-infected spleen juice (in a really messed up metaphor for the "uncleanliness" Sam feels about his demon blood infection). Dean just stands there, holding the infected heart and not even directly coming in contact with it, and yet HE is the one the ghost latches on to. Because what the ghost brings out in its victims is HIS OWN FEAR, and what it preys on his his victims' guilt over what they'd done to him.
We don't know yet, but it was Dean's guilt over what he'd done in Hell that opened him up to this possession, leaving Sam unscathed because Sam doesn't harbor any real guilt over what he'd done during that same time. He'd been trying to save people, after all. Even if his methods were tainted by demon blood and Ruby's manipulation, Sam's own perception of what he'd been doing absolved him of guilt.
Perception accounts for so much... like we learn over the years about what determines a soul's fate after death, exhibited in 7.04 Defending Your Life where Dean's own guilt is on trial, right through 14.08 where Anubis flat-out states that some divine force isn't sitting in judgment of souls but that they effectively judge themselves...
But in 4.06, Dean hadn't been directly responsible for Luther's death, so the ghost sickness eventually shifts away from Luther's fear and begins to reflect the things Dean actually fears-- that Sam has been tainted by what Azazel did to him as a baby, and that Dean has tainted himself by what he'd done in Hell.
Because they don't have all the facts, they aren't yet aware of how Dean was just as much manipulated into what he'd done as Sam has been. They're so caught up in the details of the present that they can't even begin to see the bigger picture yet. But they will... and every time the spiral loops back around, they're standing at a different point, yet still always unable to see the even bigger picture, or even the spiral itself yet.
I’ve already written what I think is still my key takeaway from this episode here, way back in 2017:

I mean, who wants this life, Sam? Huh? Seriously? Do you actually like being stuck in a car with me eight hours a day, every single day? I don't think so! I mean, I drive too fast. And I listen to the same five albums over and over and over again, a-and I sing along. I'm annoying, I know that.

Since I suppose I’ll be tracking some of this from now on, some rewatch notes about alcohol up to 4.14 (where I am rn).
Sam and Dean start out as casual drinkers with a rather normal relationship with alcohol. Starting with Sam in season 2, we begin to see drinking used as an occasional coping tool. I want to mention this because I think there’s a tendency to think Sam and Dean (usually Dean in particular) are exceptionally heavy drinkers from season 1 episode 1 and onward, and that simply isn’t true.
I haven’t been making any specific notes about alcohol up to this point, but I recall these instances of the brothers being drunk up to 4.14:
In 1.19 “Provenance”, Dean is implied to have gone out and partied the night before and to have a hangover. He’s also shown specifically in the passenger seat the next morning, sleeping it off. Sam was with him at the bar the night before but working on a pattern at a table, so easily served as designated driver.
In 2.11 “Playthings”, Dean finds Sam drunk in the hotel (this is where the “you’re bossy and short” line happens) because he feels responsible for Ava’s disappearance and is coping with worry about becoming a monster. Sam throws up in the toilet the next morning.
In 2.15 “Tall Tales”, we get two different perspectives at a bar. In Sam’s memory, Dean and a woman named Starla were both drunk or working up to it. In Dean’s recollection, they’re both sober.
In 3.10, Dean enters a bar to find Sam drinking morosely because he’s given up hope of being able to save Dean. Sam appears a little drunk.
In 4.09 “I Know What You Did Last Summer”, in flashbacks, we see Sam is drinking very heavily to cope with Dean’s death. In fact, he seems to spend most of the early flashbacks in an inebriated state. He’s absolutely wasted when he tries to make the crossroad’s deal, and he’s also stumbling drunk in the next flashback (presumably right after) when gets into his motel room. He meets Ruby there and she orders him to grab his keys because they need to leave now. The next scene is Sam driving with Ruby in the passenger seat. This is the only incident of drunk driving I can think of so far in my rewatch.
In addition to these instances, we do see Dean take a shot in 4.06 to cope with ghost sickness (liquid courage if you will) and in 4.08 after waking up from a Hell nightmare. In neither case is he shown to be drunk and in neither case is he driving. He runs off on foot in 4.06, and in 4.08, he was holed up at the motel.
Feel free to comment if you remember some moments from 4.14 or prior. I’ll add them.
