   Summary

   After Chuck's defeat, the lives of the Winchester brothers have fundamentally changed. Being truly free to decide their own destiny for the first time, they have to navigate that new-found freedom - together and individually. Before Sam moves in with Eileen to start a new chapter in his own story, the two brothers decide to go on a final road trip together.
   There, on a beach in Mexico, begins Dean's journey of self-discovery and acceptance, of allowing himself to experience life - one that is truly his own - in all its facets.
