...but I think it's odd that Meg didn't possess him and hurt Sam in that guise. Surely that would have been just as painful. But Dean doesn't seem to get possessed.
I hadn't really thought of that -- but I think Meg's target here was mostly Dean, wasn't it? He was the one she really wanted to hurt, which was why driving him to kill Sam -- of his own free will -- was the plan she came up with.
I think that Dean really, really doesn't want to believe that Sam has gone bad, somehow, and that's why he didn't think that Sam wasn't himself. Although now that I type it out, that doesn't make much sense at all.
