Supernatural In 4x21, Dean tells Sam that he and Bobby will kill Lilith. Do you think they have the capability to do this?

Yes, they could find a way.

No, it was pretty arrogant of Dean to say that.

he has the demon killing knife - i'm sure he and Bobby could find a way to end Lillith. he's the one who killed the YED.
Well, actually I do understand- he's addicted, deluded and influenced by demonic blood.
@67impala- Lilith was afraid of the knife, remember? MATEOTB- Sam tried to use it on her.
Also, with the info Dean has, killing Lilith doesn't necessarily stop the apocalypse.
Everything he's doing right now is FOR Sam - so Sam doesn't have to turn into a monster/demon/whatever the hell he's becoming.
He never would have agreed to follow the Angels orders if he didn't think he was saving Sam.
To answer your question, dean-girlx, I'm not anti-Dean (I'm not exactly happy with him, mind you!), but when I was watching that scene and Dean said that, I thought what the hell? If you and Bobby could do that, why not do it before now? If Dean felt unprepared to go up against Lilith before, what had he done to prepare himself to go up against her now?? It struck me as an arrogant thing to say, it was like, Well don't you worry, I'm going to fix everything. I just don't believe that he could right now, even with Bobby's help. :)
And it's true, they are down to the wire- but it's also true that they haven't tried to find Lilith before now and Bobby has quite a few tricks up his sleeve- he's the one who found Lilith before in S3. Plus, they could call on Castiel- or Dean might even think he could call on Anna too.
Also, Lilith is obviously speeding up her game, which means she's going to have a higher profile and I think she'll be easier to track.
And again, Dean said that to Sam to encourage him to go with them- to do it together- meaning they'd have Sam's help. I'm sure that factored into his statement.
Also, him saying that- he still may not even believe he can do it- so that makes it bravado more than arrogance.
I don't believe Dean is being arrogant, he's a trained, seasoned hunter, and Bobby even more so, they could definitely do it if they took down the YED they can take out Lilith, but she's wily, like bloody soap.
I think the angels actually complicated Dean's role, and what they have set up for him is not along the lines of stopping Lilith, it's to stop Sam, to give Dean a good enough reason to stop Sam.
Lilith is the last seal in connection with making Sam go over the edge, I believe.
And if anyone can stop Sam, it's Dean. I don't get why you had to say he was being arrogant, though, he's desperate to save his brother, he'd die trying to kill Lilith if it meant Sam wouldn't have to do what he's doing.
Give him a reason to drink her blood and to do her true purpose, free Lucifer. Because when she mentioned Demon Sunday School, things became a little clearer to me.
hmmm, nah, it doesn't really help, Dean can be a prick but he's still capable when he wants to.
But I will respect your opinion, mate.
I do understand the other comments put forth; Dean is highly capable, so is Bobby, but I still don't understand why they didn't do something about Lilith before now. She was breaking the frickin' seals that would set Lucifer free. To me, that was more than enough reason for Sam to pursue her, even if he started out wanting revenge, but then all this other stuff happened along the way.
That's an interesting way to see Ruby. I've thought all along that she does want to stop Lilith, and has been tracking her, but yes, she wants Lilith out of the way for her own purposes, and she's definitely using Sam to accomplish that. That's one of the things I'm really looking forward to finding out! :))
I'm just sad all this conniving from both Heaven and Hell has resulted in the brothers separating, I don't even care anymore about the Ruby thing, man, I'm so heartbroken about them going their own way...
Season five will suck if they're apart most of the time, plotting against each other and stuff.
I think this is why Ruby wasn't killed by Lilith back when Dean died... they were both trying to free Lucifer in their own way.
I'm not sure I will survive the season finale, I might need the comfort of Sambuca shots and prawn cocktail snacks. With Kripke's "more than one, less than 12 (Deaths)".
I'm Portuguese, there is no way I'm going to go buy Greek drinks, the Euro is still fresh in my memory. :p
Sambuca goes down sweet, though, it might just keep me from going mental on Thursday.
