Can we just talk about how Mick is when he first appears in 12x02? First thing we see out of him is him looking into Toni's SUV where Dean, Cas, and Mary had stashed the body of one of his former colleagues, Ms. Watt. And he's pissed. He's on the phone, threatening Toni. He tells her she's been a bad girl, basically blames her for Watt's death, and says he's coming to "fetch" her. Then when he shows up on the scene (after mother dearest decided she was going to beat the shit out of Toni), he offers them an olive branch. Stating that if he truly was their enemy, there's many different ways where he could've come in there and taken them all prisoner but he comes unarmed, instead. He promises them that Toni will see punishment for her behavior in London, refusing to let the Winchesters have their way with her. And he offers to work with them, rather than against them, telling them to cool down and think on it. "What have you got to lose, except your worst nightmares?" He acknowledges the power of Castiel, knowing from his research that it's not advisable to challenge an Angel. He sighs, having already had a long enough day, when Cas gets cocky about it and hands him his number (seeing as Cas was the closest one to him). He then later, when driving Toni to the airport, debates with her on her methods. Him seeing hers as rash and unreasonable and her seeing it simply as doing what needs to be done. He tells her she's getting on that plane, like it or not (not taking "no" for an answer). And that he's called Ketch and he's coming to clean up her mess. Now, the only time he would've had to call him is when he was driving from where Watt was to where Toni was. Having to one, call in the report of her death so her body can be handled properly and two, vent to his best friend about their ex-girlfriend being a little bitch so when he did show up, he didn't kill her, himself. It's all something to think about.
The fact that Mick literally went from "fuck you, bitches, this is what we're gonna do" to not knowing how to function properly without a Winchester telling him what to do breaks my heart. What the fuck did he do to deserve any of that? They don't even know the first thing about him. They don't know the consequences of disobeying the Code. They are the fucks that need to get in line, not the Brits.
