Dean... is there something you wanna say to me?

Dean

I tried, Sammy. Man, I really tried. But I just can't keep pretending that everything's all right. Because it's not. And it's never going to be. You chose a demon over your own brother... and look what happened.

I would give anything, anything, to take it all back-

Dean

I know you would. And I know how sorry you are, I do. But, man... you were the one that I depended on the most. And you let me down in ways that I can't even... I'm just- I'm having a hard time forgiving and forgetting here. You know?

What can I do?

Dean

Honestly? Nothing. I just don't... I don't think that we can ever be what we were. You know? I just don't think I can trust you.

You're telling me you lost your mojo just in time to get me stuck in this trap the rest of my life?!

I'm sorry.

Shove it up your ass.

Dean

[quietly, to Sam] Well, at least he's talking now.

I heard that.

I don't have much time; we need to talk.

Dean

Okay.

Your plan. "Kill Lucifer."

Dean

Yeah, you wanna help?

No. It's foolish, it can't be done.

Dean

Oh, well, thanks for the support.

Dean

God?

Yes.

Dean

God.

Yes. He isn't in Heaven, He has to be somewhere.

Dean

Try New Mexico, I hear He's on a tortilla.

No, He's not on any flatbread.

Dean

Listen, chuckles, even if there is a God, He is either dead, and that's the generous theory-

He is out there, Dean.

Dean

...or, He's up and kicking and doesn't give a rat's ass about any of us. I mean, look around you, man; the world is in the toilet! We are literally at the end of days here, and He's off somewhere drinking booze out of a coconut. Alright?

Enough. This is not a theological issue; it's strategic. With God's help, we can win.

Dean

It's a pipe-dream, Cas.

[angrily] I killed two angels this week. That's my brothers. I'm hunted, I have rebelled, and I did it - all of it - for you. And you failed. You and your brother destroyed the world. And I lost everything, for nothing. So keep your opinions to yourself.

Dean

So, pit stop at Mount Doom?

Dean-

Dean

Sam, let's not.

No, listen, this is important. I know you don't trust me. Just, now I realize something. I don't trust me either. From the minute I saw that blood, the only thought in my head... And I tell myself it's for the right reasons, that my intentions are good, and it- it feels true, you know? But I think, underneath... I just miss the feeling. I know how messed up that sounds, which means, I know how messed up I am. The thing is, the problem's not the demon blood, not really, I mean, I- what I did, I can't blame the blood, or Ruby, or... anything. The problem's me. How far I'll go. There's something in me that... scares the hell outta me, Dean. In the last couple of days, I caught another glimpse.

Dean

So what are you saying?

I'm in no shape to be hunting. I need to step back, 'cause I'm dangerous. Maybe it's best we just go our separate ways.

Dean

Well I think you're right.

I was expecting a fight.

Dean

The truth is, I spend more time worrying about you, than about doing the job right. I just can't afford that, you know? Not now.

I'm sorry, Dean.

Dean

I know you are, Sam. Hey, you, uh... wanna take the Impala?

It's okay. [gets up to leave] Take care of yourself, Dean.

Dean

Yeah, you too, Sammy.

Dean

Tell me something; you keep saying we're gonna trap this guy, but isn't that kinda like trapping a hurricane with a butterfly net?

No, it's harder.

Dean

Do we have any chance of surviving this?

You do.

Dean

...So, odds are, you're a dead man tomorrow?

Yes.

Dean

Oh. Well, last night on earth, what, uh... what're your plans?

I just thought I'd sit here quietly.

Dean

Dude, c'mon, anything? Hm? Booze, women? [Castiel glances at Dean, then looks away quickly] You have been with a woman before. Right? Or an angel, at least? [Castiel rubs his neck in embarrassment. Dean leans down to almost talk in his ear] You mean to tell me you've never been up there doing a little cloud seeding?

Look, I've never had occasion, okay?

RRaphael

Castiel.

Raphael.

Dean

Oh, you know, I thought you were supposed to be impressive. All you do is black out the room?

RRaphael

And the eastern seaboard. It is a testament to my unending mercy that I don't smite you here and now.

Dean

Or maybe you're full of crap. Maybe you're afraid that God'll bring Cas back to life again, and smite you and your candy-ass skirt. By the way, hi, I'm Dean. [Waves]

RRapheal

I know who you are, and now thanks to him [glances at Castiel] I know where you are.

You won't kill him. You wouldn't dare.

RRapheal

But I will take him to Micheal.

RRaphael

But there's no other explanation. He's gone for good.

You're lying.

RRaphael

Am I? Do you remember the twentieth century? Think the twenty-first is going any better? Do you think God would've let any of that happen if He were alive?

Dean

Oh yeah? Well then who invented the Chinese basket trick?

RRaphael

Careful. That's my Father you're talking about, boy.

Dean

Yeah, who would be so proud to know that His sons started the friggin' apocalypse.

RRaphael

Who ran off and disappeared. Who left no instructions, and a world to run.

Dean

So Daddy ran away and disappeared. He didn't happen to work for the post office, did He?

RRaphael

This is funny to you? You're living in a Godless universe!

Dean

Look, I'll be the first to tell you that this little crusade of yours is nuts, but... I do know a little something about missing fathers.

What do you mean?

Dean

I mean, there were times when I was looking for my dad when... all logic said that he was dead. But I knew, in my heart, that he was still alive. So, who cares what some Ninja Turtle says, Cas? What do you believe?

I believe He's out there.

Dean

Good. Then go find Him.

What about you?

Dean

What about me? I don't know. Honestly... I'm good. I can't believe I'm saying that, but I am, I'm... I'm really good.

Even without your brother?

Dean

Especially without my brother. I mean, I spend so much time worrying about the son of a bitch. I mean, I've had more fun with you in the past twenty-four hours than I've had with Sam in years. And you're not that much fun. It's funny, you know, I've been so chained to my family, but now that I'm alone... hell, I'm happy.

Dean

So you're his vessel, huh? Lucifer's wearing you to the prom?

That's what he said.

Dean

Just when we thought you were out, they pull you back in, huh, Sammy?

So that's it, that's your response?

Dean

What are you looking for?

I don't know, uh, a little panic, maybe?

Dean

I guess I'm a little numb with the earth-shattering revelations at this point.

Dean

So what, you're just gonna walk back in, and we're gonna be the dynamic duo again?

Look, Dean, I can do this. I can. I'm gonna prove it to you.

Dean

Look, Sam, it doesn't matter. Whatever we do. I mean, it turns out that you and me, we're the, uh... the fire and the oil of the Armageddon. You know, on that basis alone, we should just pick a hemisphere. Stay away from each other for good.

Dean, it does not have to be like this, we can fight it.

Dean

Yeah, you're right, we can. But not together. We're not stronger when we're together, Sam. I think we're weaker. Because whatever we have between us; love, family, whatever it is; they are always gonna use it against us. And you know that. No, we're better off apart. We got a better chance of dodging Lucifer and Michael and this whole damn thing... if we just go our own ways.

Dean, don't do this.

Dean

Goodbye, Sam.

Dean

What are you, a hippie?

2C2014-Castiel

[stretching] Thought you'd gotten over trying to label me.

Dean

Cas, we need to talk.

2C2014-Castiel

[turns to face Dean] Whoa, strange.

Dean

What?

2C2014-Castiel

You... are not you, not 'now' you, anyway.

Dean

No! Yeah- yes. Exactly.

2C2014-Castiel

What year are you from?

Dean

2009.

2C2014-Castiel

Who did this to you? Is it Zachariah?

Dean

Yes.

2C2014-Castiel

Interesting.

Dean

Oh yeah, it's friggin' fascinating. Now... why don't you just strap on your angel wings and fly me back to my page on the calendar?

2C2014-Castiel

[turns away and laughs] I wish I could just, uh, strap on my wings, but, uh, I'm sorry, no dice. [Laughs again]

Dean

...What are you, stoned?

2C2014-Castiel

Generally, yeah.

Dean

What happened to you?

2C2014-Castiel

[shrugs] Life.

LALucifer as Sam

Oh. Hello, Dean. Aren't you a surprise? You've come a long way to see this, haven't you?

Dean

Well go ahead. Kill me.

LALucifer as Sam

Kill you? [looks at the body of Dean-2014] Don't you think that would be a little redundant? [Sighs] I'm sorry. It must be painful, speaking to me in this... shape. But it had to be your brother. It had to be. [Tries to touch Dean but Dean flinches back] You don't have to be afraid of me, Dean. What do you think I'm going to do?

Dean

I don't know, maybe deep-fry the planet?

LALucifer as Sam

Why? Why would I want to destroy this stunning thing? Beautiful, in a trillion different ways. The last perfect handiwork of God. You ever hear the story of how I fell from Grace?

Dean

Oh, good God, you're not gonna tell me a bedtime story, are ya? My stomach's almost outta bile.

LALucifer as Sam

You know why God cast me down? Because I loved Him. More than anything. And then God created...[smirks] you. The little... hairless apes. And then He asked all of us to bow down before you. To love you more than Him. And I said, "Father, I can't." I said, "These human beings are flawed. Murderous." And for that, God had Michael cast me into Hell. Now tell me, does the punishment fit the crime? Especially when I was right. Look what six billion of you have done to this thing. And how many of you blame me for it.

Dean

[voice wavering] You're not fooling me, you know that? With this 'sympathy for the devil' crap. I know what you are.

LALucifer as Sam

What am I?

Dean

You're the same thing, only bigger. The same brand of cockroach I've been squashing my whole life. An ugly, evil, belly-to-the-ground supernatural piece of crap. The only difference between them and you, is the size of your ego.

LALucifer as Sam

I like you, Dean. I get what the other angels see in you. Goodbye. We'll meet again soon.

Dean

You better kill me now!

LALucifer as Sam

Pardon?

Dean

You better kill me now! Or I swear, I will find a way to kill you. And I won't stop-

LALucifer as Sam

I know you won't. I know you won't say yes to Michael either, and I know you won't kill Sam. Whatever you do, you will always end up here. Whatever choices you make, whatever details you alter, we will always end up... here. [tears start to fall from Dean freely] I win... So, I win.

Dean

You're wrong.

LALucifer as Sam

See you in five years, Dean.

Dean

Sam. [holds Ruby's knife out to Sam] If you're serious, and you want back in... you should hang onto this. I'm sure you're rusty. Look, man, I'm sorry. I don't know, uh, whatever I need to be, but I was, uh... wrong.

What made you change your mind?

Dean

Long story. The point is... maybe we are each other's Achilles' heel. Maybe they'll find a way to use us against each other, I don't know. I just know, we're all we've got. More than that... we keep each other human.

Thank you. Really, thank you. I won't let you down.

Dean

Oh, I know it. I mean, you are the second-best hunter on the planet.

So what do we do now?

Dean

We make our own future.

Guess we have no choice.

So... what's with this job?

Dean

Dude suffers a head-on collision in a parked car? I'd say it's worth checking out.

Yeah, definitely, um, but... we've got bigger problems, don't you think?

Dean

I'm sure the apocalypse'll still be there when we get back.
