Quotes

Dean: Bass fishing, needle point -- that's a hobby. Collecting serial killer stats, that's a sickness.
Cain: Hello Castiel.

Castiel: What have you done?

Cain: These bodies? Just cleaning up a mess I made a long time ago.
Castiel: This is a massacre.

Cain: Yes. And soon it will be a genocide. My children, my whole poisoned issue. Lot of them out there right now -- killers, fighters, thieves. Some more peaceful than others, but they still carry it -- the disease. If the Mark wants blood, I'll give it mine.
Castiel: You are Adam and Eve's first born, your descendants are legion.
Cain: At most I'm culling... one in ten.
Castiel: Of everyone.

Cain: I've got time.
Crowley: Well done Mother. Next time you run a long con, let more than a few hours of suspicious, entirely uncharacteristic usefulness pass before making your ask.

Rowena: You think I have an ulterior motive, that I've been manipulating you?
Crowley: You couldn't be more transparent.

Rowena: Well duh, of course I was manipulating you. I am your Mother after all. Manipulations who we are; my wee sausage. What matter is it that I had a motive, we had fun today, didn't we?
Sam: Where're you going?

Dean: We know where Cain's gonna be. The kid's in danger.
Sam: Okay, so what, we track him down to Ohio and then what?

Dean: Then I'll do what I have you do. I'll kill Cain.
Dean: You know last week when I said I would go down swinging when the time came? I meant that, I was at peace with that -- I just didn't realize that the time would come so soon. Like right now... I'm scared Sam.
