Supernatural fans brought up one minor moment in Season 8 that was a major heartbreaker.

Supernatural 's final episode was released in 2019 and became tragic news for millions of dedicated fans. The story of the Winchester brothers chasing supernatural beings left no viewer indifferent.

Many watched the whole 15-seasons-long series twice or even several times. Thus, three years after the series finale, fans return to the groups and subs dedicated to Supernatural to discuss the moments they missed on the first viewing.

Considering the amount of mindblowing storylines, it is easy to overlook small but important details when watching the dark fantasy drama for the first time. The second and following viewings uncover small things and moments that give new perspectives on the arcs, personalities, and background stories of the series' protagonists, Sam and Dean Winchester, and other characters.

The Only Retcon Explanation That Might Save The Winchesters

That's exactly what members of r/Supernatural subreddit discussed recently.

The post that started the discussion noted that Supernatural has quite a few "minor" scenes that can be major heartbreakers if you pay attention. The moment that hit the author right in the feels came in Season 8 Episode 13 titled Everybody Hates Hitler.

The Supernatural Episode Jared Padalecki Never Wants His Kids To See

In the episode, the Winchester brothers find the Men of Letters bunker that will become their new home and Dean gets very excited to have his own room and happily plunges into decorating and creating domestic comforts.

"It just is one of those times where it really hits you that the boys never really had a home. They lived in motels 99% of their life. And now they have a place to call 'home'," the Redditor wrote.

This scene is truly emotional if you remember the brothers have led a nomadic way of life since they were kids. Their mother was killed by a demon when Sam was just a baby, and their father was not very good at being a homebody person. The commenters agreed that the sentiment of the scene was very sweet and touching.

"I do love that scene, and it does choke you up if you think about the implications. I love how Dean almost reverently mounted his weapon on the wall, found the perfect place to store his vinyl, and finally found a safe resting place for his family photos," one of the fans wrote in the thread.
