I think Cas took the torture from within Sam's soul and put it on himself. So, not the memory but the "on fire" part of Sam's soul. You find the concept of taking on illnesses from others when you can't heal them as an act of love and devotion in stories, real ones as well as made up ones.
I loved Cas's return, I'm a fan of him after all ;), and even though this ep was rather cramped, packed full, I think I loved exactly that. However, I didn't like Meg too much. Not sure why. But maybe it was because of the change in the actress. Though I was never too much a fan of her anyway...
And I do think that there was no closeness between the brothers was part of the Sam-being-alone-with-Lucifer thing. Anyone getting close to Sam could have in his perception been Lucie in disguise. So, I think this "mental illness" of Sam did indeed put a wall between the brothers. And when he was well again at the end it was at he price of Cas being stuck with the Lucifer-madness. So, maybe not the best moment to hug either. That's my thoughts on that anyway. But I'm sure there will be hugging again...sometime.. ;D
(I could only enjoy the ep properly today after my internet was giving me problems yesterday, giving me a slide show rather than a film. Which was incredibly annoying especially with the "Cas remembers" scene. Glad things worked fine today. I really need faster internet...or a faster computer..or win a million...or..LOL)
