Lucifer showed up for the first time as a woman, and it would have been symmetrical and kinda cool if Michael had done so too. Besides, thought I, if there’s anyone Dean wouldn’t be able to say no to, it would be his mom.
Hmm! I was unspoiled so it didn't occur to me, but that's a great point. Although Dean may also have been angrier at his mother's possession (won't be the first time he's seen it for John). In fact, at this point his Mom's the only member of the family (even counting Bobby) who he hasn't seen possessed yet. (Ok, there was Deanna, too).
it did make me think that if (when) Dean says yes to Michael, it won’t be out of a spirit of filial obedience or even filial piety
I would hope so, because otherwise Dean's going to hell would end up meaning very little.
