|Synopsis=
In the An-Nafud Desert of Saudi Arabia, [[Crowley]] meets a dying man, Noel, who had previously sold his [[soul]] to him. The man offers him the [[Horn of Joshua]], a "[[Hand of God]]," in exchange for tearing up his contract. Crowley agrees and the man feels a sense of relief as Crowley destroys his contract, before Crowley snaps his neck. Horn of Joshua in hand, Crowley is confronted by Noel's guards, and with a simple gesture causes the four men to shoot each other. Back in America, Crowley contacts [[Dean]] to tell him he has a Hand of God, a weapon powerful enough to defeat [[Lucifer]]. As he’s walking down the street while on the phone, demons are watching him from all angles. He gives Dean an address to meet at and hangs up.
Meanwhile, [[Rowena]] is back from the dead and attending to [[Amara]], healing her. As they are talking, Amara realizes that Rowena is Crowley’s mother and becomes concerned, questioning why Rowena is helping her. Rowena says that Amara will win, and that she wants to be there when she does, to exact her own revenge on Lucifer for killing her. She explains that she is only alive thanks to a spell that she had embedded in her body that was activated upon sensing her life force draining.
[[Sam]] and Dean meet up with Crowley in an abandoned factory/warehouse in St. Louis to discuss what to do next. Crowley informs them that he will give them the Horn after they exorcise Lucifer out of [[Castiel]]'s [[vessel]] and send him back to [[Lucifer's Cage|the Cage]]. Sam and Dean balk as they feel only Lucifer is powerful enough to handle a Hand of God and defeat Amara. They also explain that they need Rowena and the ''[[Book of the Damned]]'' to deal with Lucifer, at which Crowley informs that that Rowena is dead. Dean then says that he wants Lucifer out of Castiel and in another body before going up against Amara, causing Sam to question Dean, saying that they need a vessel as strong as Castiel's to go up against Amara and that it was Castiel’s wish to do so. In the end, Crowley stands firm on his requirements before he will hand over the Horn of Joshua.
As she starts to feel better, Amara decides to run a "little test." She leans her head back, flings her arms out at her sides and yells "Hear Me!" sending a concussive force of darkness to [[Heaven]] where Lucifer is coercing the angels to join him. Black smoke pours down the hallways like a tornado, knocking the angels to the floor. On Earth, as the ground rumbles, the sky darkens, and lightning crackles, Dean looks to the sky and says, "I think that's her." Rowena watches Amara fearfully, wondering if she made a wise choice in siding with her. After Amara’s display of power Rowena eavesdrops on Sam, Dean, and Crowley via a spell. They are talking about how to take out Lucifer and Amara. When Amara asks what the Winchesters are up to Rowena replies, "nothing, they’re paralyzed with fear."
Dean, Sam, and Crowley are still arguing over when to trap Lucifer when Sam sees a message burned into a rusted cabinet that reads "BACK FROM THE DEAD, FERGUS!" Soon they are in an abandoned church with Rowena, preparing to summon Lucifer and expel him out of Castiel. They set up [[angel suppressing sigils]] inside an [[angel trap]] with a ring of [[holy oil]] around it and Dean recites a spell, summoning Lucifer. When Lucifer appears in the center of the sigil, Sam lights the holy oil, creating a ring of holy fire around Lucifer and trapping him. Dean slices his hand and activates the sigil drawn on the table, causing Lucifer to temporarily lose control of the vessel. Castiel converses briefly with Dean, but he fades away again before Dean can convince him to expel Lucifer.
As the warding starts to fail, Crowley smokes out of his body and into Lucifer / Castiel. Once inside, he finds Castiel contentedly watching TV in a simulacrum of the kitchen in [[the Bunker]]. Crowley tries to convince Castiel to push Lucifer out, but Castiel is fairly ambivalent, believing Lucifer is their best bet in the fight against Amara. Lucifer then enters the room and starts throwing Crowley around. Out in the church, the words "HELP ME" appear burned into Crowley’s forehead. Sam and Dean perform an [[exorcism]], pulling Crowley back out. The holy fire goes out, prompting Crowley to disappear and allowing Lucifer to take the Horn. As he starts to hurt Sam and Dean, Amara explodes through the church doors and confronts Lucifer. The Horn of Joshua starts to glow in Lucifer’s hand as he begins to absorb its power. He raises the other hand to Amara, a stream of energy flowing from him to her, engulfing Amara in a white light. When the Horn's power is depleted, Amara is still standing. She pulls Lucifer towards her and places his face in her hands. As Dean calls out one last time to Castiel, Amara looks on him with concern and releases them from Lucifer's binding before the two disappear.
Back at the Bunker, Sam and Dean discuss why Lucifer couldn’t beat Amara. They hypothesize that the Hand of God has to be used by "God’s Chosen," thus a cast-out [[archangel]] wouldn’t qualify. Sam apologizes for not wanting to pull Lucifer out of Castiel, and Dean says that they agreed to respect each other’s wishes, even if they don’t agree with them. After that, Dean said they will "find that idiot and bring him home." Meanwhile, Amara is tossing Lucifer around. Lucifer suggests that he could be helpful to her in settling her score with [[God]]. She expresses distrust for him but agrees he could be useful in getting God to show Himself, as he might be the one thing that God cares about -- that God might show Himself if Lucifer is threatened. As he is explaining that God will not come, Amara says that they will see and turns and points at Lucifer. He screams in agony as his chest and eyes start to glow with a bright light.
