===[[9.01 I Think I'm Gonna Like It Here]]===
When Sam is near death from the damage he took from the [[trials]], Death himself comes to reap him, appearing to him in his coma dream and saying that he considers it an honor and that while he usually doesn't pass judgment, he tells Sam "well done, my boy." Sam is ready to come with him and asks if Death can make it so that he dies permanently this time and can't be brought back which Death confirms. However, before Sam can agree to go with Death, [[Ezekiel]] shows up in Dean's form to try to convince Sam to not give up and say "Yes" to him which will allow him to possess him and heal him from the inside. Death doesn't interfere saying that its Sam's decision and he ultimately says yes after which Death disappears from Sam's mind.
===[[10.23 My Brother's Keeper]]===
Deciding that he can't fight the influence of the [[Mark of Cain]] anymore, [[Dean]] sets-up shop in an empty bar where he proceeds to summon Death, believing he's the only thing powerful enough to kill him. When Death arrives, Dean offers him some Mexican food that he prepared himself, which Death gladly dines on. As Dean makes his case to Death to kill him, Death tells him that the Mark won't allow for that, but tells him he can remove the Mark, but Dean must first give it to someone else before he will. Death explains that the Mark was created by [[God]] to bind [[the Darkness]], an ancient evil that existed before life or even the Earth. If the Mark is removed without being passed on, the Darkness will be released. The Mark initially belonged to [[Lucifer]] who was corrupted by it, which led to his fall and it being passed it onto [[Cain]] who passed it onto Dean. When Dean refuses to pass the Mark on, Death offers him another option: Death can transport him so far away he's no longer a threat to anyone, but he demands Dean kill [[Sam]] in exchange so Sam won't try to get him back. Dean calls Sam and gives him his location, when he arrives, Death waits idly as the two brothers confront and fight each other, until Sam finally acquiescences and allows Dean to kill him for the greater good. A defeated Sam remains kneeling at his brother's feet, when Death approaches and hands Dean [[Death's Scythe|his scythe]]. As Dean is hesitating delivering the death blow to Sam, Death tells him to do it, or he will. As Dean tells Sam he is sorry, he takes the scythe and swings it over Sam's head, turning around and driving the blade into the side of Death, killing him. Death and his scythe crumble to ashes. However, Death's warning comes to pass when [[Rowena]] removes the Mark and the Darkness is released.
