|Synopsis=
Don't Call Me The scene opens with a scruffy dog outside a dumpster while [[Metatron]] scrounges inside for a sandwich. As he opens the wrapped sandwich scraps, the dog begs for some and whines. Metatron, with a deep breath, tosses the dog the meat and smiles. He goes back to scrounging and finally, frustrated, screams, "I give up!" Instantly, he and the dog are in a bar. He turns to the dog, commenting that they’re not on Earth anymore. He looks around and sees a man sitting in a booth. When he gets closer, and the man turns, it’s [[Chuck Shurley Original ]] (or Carver Edlund, as Metatron assumes him to be).
Air Date May 4Metatron demands to know what place they're in, 2016and Chuck says it’s a bar. Metatron counters arrogantly, explaining that they're in "one of the Big Man’s constructs", and he should know. Then he wonders if it’s a punishment on him for how he behaved -- being stuck with a hack writer who’s also a prophet of the Lord. Chuck asks if Metatron thinks he’s really a hack and Metatron is highly dismissive of Chuck's work. Chuck acknowledges his criticism but says he can’t believe Metatron burned one of his books when he was doing his monologue to Castiel. Metatron is flustered, wondering how Chuck could have known about that and Chuck laughs. He says he’d forgotten that people can’t see him unless he wants them to. He hands Metatron some sunglasses to put on and makes a motion of flipping a switch -- revealing Himself as God, in a blinding light and hallelujah chorus. Metatron’s jaw drops and he throws himself out of the booth, bowing and crossing himself. He avidly recants his criticisms of Supernatural, insisting that it's underrated and due for a reboot. Chuck tells him to stop with the kneeling and not to use the G-word. He smiles and says to just call him Chuck. Metatron pulls off the glasses and says he needs a stiffer drink.
Writer Robbie ThompsonAt the [[bunker]], [[Dean]] is swilling beer and ironing, using the beer as needed to add steam. [[Sam]] comes in and says he's glad to see Dean ironing because he's found a case and they're going to need their suits. Apparently a man named Wes Cooper committed a murder-suicide in Idaho and no one knows why -- he just snapped. They wonder if he might have been possessed or soulless and decide to head out, hoping it’s a lead on Amara. Sam sniffs at his freshly-ironed shirt and yells at Dean to stop ironing with beer.
Director Robert SingerBack at the bar, Chuck tells Metatron that He’s been busy these last few years. He started a blog but it was mostly pictures of cats. He says He also started a new series of books called Revolution. Metatron is dismissive of his taste in titles. Then he asks why God put on the Chuck suit to start with -- what was the point?. Chuck says He likes front row seats and wanted to hide in plain sight. Metatron compliments Him on His an Oscar-worthy performance but asks why no one knew. He mentions the amulet that supposedly burned hot in His presence. Chuck produces the [[Dean's Amulet|Samulet]] from thin air. He says He turned it off and then He turns it back on with a blinding glow. As He puts the amulet back in his pocket, He starts to tell Metatron where it has been all this time, but Metatron cuts Him off.
Producer Todd AronauerCo Producers Serge Ladouceur / Jerry WanekMetatron says he knows what a piece of garbage he’s been the last few years, and asks Chuck if he’s been brought here to be destroyed. Chuck tells Metatron that He feels humanity's greatest achievement is music, and that this place is B.G.’s Canteen, where many great groups got their start. He says He hopes they can tap into some of that musical magic and work together to finish what He started a few months ago. Turns out He’s been working on His autobiography, and He’s stuck. Metatron is happy that He wants them work together and asks if he can be an angel again. Chuck laughs and says that will never, ever happen. Metatron agrees that that's probably a good call then turns to the manuscript: "Let’s do this".
Executive Producer Jeremy CarverCo Executive Producers Phillip Sgriccia / Jim MichaelsThe boys are in Hope Springs, Idaho. Dean and Sam ask the sheriff, Mac, about Wes Cooper. Mac says it doesn’t make sense and that a witness overheard him saying strange things like his life was meaningless and no one loved him – like every negative thought he had. The deputy, [[Deputy Jan Harris|Harris]], says Wes’s wife really loved him and she has no idea why he'd snapped. Looking at crime scene pictures, Sam sees marks on Cooper’s arms that look like the black tendrils they've seen before on the [[rabids]]. He asks if there were any strange phenomena around town like sulfur smells or fog, but Harris says no. Harris knocks off work early once she's done showing Sam the photos so she can get home to her new husband.
Chuck is hovering as Metatron reads, and Metatron wonders at His hurry. Chuck says He is on a deadline, and asks Metatron for his initial opinion. Metatron prevaricates, not making eye contact, and says it’s good. Chuck deadpans: "you hate it". Metatron tries to backpedal, but Chuck says, "it’s a safe place, just tell me." Metatron says it’s lacking some details, like all of them. For instance, the book starts "In the beginning, there was Me", but Metatron reminds Him that He wasn’t alone – He had His sister with Him. Chuck seems to get angry, distant. He doesn't want to talk about His sister. Metatron, however, does. He asks if Chuck knows she’s out and about, ready and rested. He asks Chuck if that's why he's come back. Chuck says this is not her story.
The scene opens with deputy pulls up at her home and her husband comes out to greet her. He asks if "that" followed her from town and she turns to see a scruffy dog outside a dumpster strange fog approaching. Remembering Sam's questions, she tells her husband to go inside while Metatron scrounges inside for she calls it in. She calls dispatch and says there’s a sandwichstrange heavy fog heading her way. As he opens the wrapped sandwich scrapsit envelops her, the dog begs for some she starts coughing and whinescollapses as her arm breaks out in black veins. Metatron, with a deep breath, tosses the dog the meat and smiles. He goes back to scrounging and finally, frustrated, screams – “I give up!”
InstantlyIn the bar, he and the dog Chuck shoots pool while Metatron reads. Metatron tells Chuck there are some "great bones" in a barthe draft, but maybe what it's lacking is balance rather than details. He turns to says Chuck is giving the dog and wrong stuff too much real estate; he says Chuck spends too much time explaining His years as ‘Chuck’. Chuck defends His telling, commenting how much good He did as Chuck -- He traveled, dated, learned to play guitar. Chuck strums a tune. Metatron says all of that they’re not on Earth anymoremakes Chuck seem like a grounded, likable person. Chuck says that is good, but Metatron reminds Him that He looks around and sees a man sitting in is neither grounded nor a boothperson. When he gets closer, and the man turns, it’s He says Chuck Shurley/Carver Edlund thereis wasting pounds of pages that should be spent on juicier stuff that people want to read.
Metatron suggests He write more about the [[archangels]]; he says Chuck gave them just two paragraphs and they deserve a few more words, especially Chuck’s ‘favorite’ Lucifer. Chuck says Lucifer was not His favorite. But Metatron talks about how he helped Chuck defeat Amara, how Chuck trusted him with [[Mark of Cain|the Mark]] and then he rebelled. Metatron says if Amara is off limits, fine. But every great hero is defined by their villain. Chuck says Lucifer was not a villain. Metatron explains that there are two types of memoir. One is honest and the other not so much -- truth vs fairy tale. He asks if Chuck wants to write like Keith Richards or like Brian Wilson. He says there is no revelation in what this he's written, and that’s odd given who Chuck is . Metatron says there’s no soul in the story and Chuck says it’s He doesn’t have a barsoul. Metatron counters arrogantlysays Chuck invented souls and asks him how it felt to do so. Chuck says He felt nauseous and Metatron is shocked, saying this is one dismayed. He says that’s Chuck talking not G-O-D. Metatron calls the script nebbishness and reminds Chuck of all the ‘big man’s constructs’, great things He did and he should knowthat He created as much as He punished. Then Metatron says the guy he wonders if it’s worked for was a punishment on him for how he behaved; being stuck with badass who could be a hack writer who’s dick, but had stories to tell. Metatron says He also has a prophet of the Lordlot to answer for.
Chuck asks if agrees, but isn’t sure how to go forward. Metatron thinks he’s really tells Him to ‘hold up a hack mirror’ and Metatron says he’s read a metric ton of books show the world who He really is, warts and Supernatural didn’t crack the top 10…. thousandall. He tells Chuck reads off some to write for an audience of his book titles one -- himself. He hands back the manuscript and Metatron says no, not even those. Metatron then mocks Chuck that he put himself in the storyhe’ll help Him either way but He needs to pick a lane.
Chuck responds [[Baby]] pulls up to a crime scene as a body bag is being loaded into a van. Sam and Dean join Ssheriff Mac, who apologizes for the criticism but early morning call. He tells them Deputy Harris didn’t show up for work so he came by her place and says he can’t believe Metatron burned one of it looks like Art was shot in the face point-blank by his books when doing his monologue to Castielwife. Sam asks if her behavior seemed off recently. Metatron is flustered, wondering how Chuck could have known Mac says nothing was out of the ordinary until she called in last night about that some heavy fog. Dean perks up and Chuck laughs. He tells Metatron he’d forgotten that people can’t see Him, unless he wants Mac to let them toknow if they get any more fog reports. He tells Metatron to put on some glasses Sam asks where Harris might be now and visualize himMac says they can track her from the office. He does and Chuck makes a motion of flipping a switch suddenly revealing Himself in a blinding light and halleluah chorus!
Metatron’s jaw drops Back at the bar, energetic rock music is playing in the background. Metatron reads the new work that Chuck is typing and is excited, asserting this is what he was talking about. He gushes about Chapter Ten -- Why I Never Answer Prayers, and You Should Be Glad I Don't -- and Chapter Eleven -- The Truth About Divine Intervention and Why I Avoid It At All Costs. After a moment, Metatron asks if he can ask Chuck a question, and Chuck agrees. Metatron asks "Why?" After a beat, Chuck tells him he throws himself out of will have to be more specific since He is asked that question all the booth bowing time, about everything. Metatron asks Chuck why He created life. Chuck thinks a minute, and finally says he was lonely. Metatron asks, but what about His sister? The music cuts off abruptly and Chuck says that she wasn't very good company -- "I am being. She is nothingness." Metatron reminds Chuck that He didn't just create a few angels for company, He kept going and created worlds. Chuck says He was stupid and naïve. He wanted to show His sister there was something more than them, something better, and crossing himselfHe thought if He could make her see, maybe she would change. He says He built new worlds and she destroyed them every time. Metatron understands -- Chuck locked her away and then recants his criticisms of Supernaturaljust created freely. Chuck says that was what He tried to do, anyway. He transports them to a lake shore, a beautiful landscape, and says that nature is the best thing He ever did. He tells Metatron that nature is smart -- smart enough to know that sometimes you have to wipe the slate clean. Metatron says okay, so, assuring when Chuck wipes a slate He does it with a flood, but also with a boat well-stocked. But if Amara wipes the slate, the entire slate is underrated destroyed too. Everything will be lost forever. Chuck says they should take a walk and due for a rebootenjoy it one last time before it’s all gone, then.
Chuck At the station in Hope Springs, Mac tells him Sam and Dean he can’t figure out the computer, as Harris was their computer person. The other deputy interrupts and says that a fog is coming into town. Dean says to stop with tell everyone to get into their homes and seal the kneeling doors and windows.

Sam tries to tell Harris it’s an infection and to let them help her, but she says it’s not an infection. She says it’s a mirror and "she" is showing them the truth. She says the light is a lie. She raises her gun at the boys, but is suddenly shot by Mac. Dean runs over to her. She is still breathing, barely, and tells Dean, "It will all be over soon. He's not gonna save them. It's all going away... forever. But not you, Dean." Having delivered the message, she dies. Sam spots more fog coming in to the town area and smilescalls to Dean.

Metatron reminds him about Amara, and Chuck lays the blame for her freedom at the feet of Sam and Dean. He says the world would have continued with a Demon Dean in it, but Sam couldn’t leave things alone. He says he saved the Winchesters and rebuilt Castiel many times, and look where that got Him.

Chuck says he knows. Metatron chokes up as he begs Chuck to explain why, why he abandoned ‘ME’ Chuck says it was because everyone disappointed him. Metatron says he’s wrong about humanity and says they are better. He says they cheat and steal and destroy but they sing, dance and love too. He says above all, they never give up. But Chuck did. Chuck goes back to writing. xxx Collapsed at the station, Sam looks at Dean and says they were never going to make it. Dean tries to deny Sam, but Sam says no, he knows Dean eventually is going to choose Amara over him, and over everyone. Dean is shocked and again denies what Sam is saying. Sam apologizes, telling Dean he can’t fight the curse. He tells Dean to go before he hurts him, but Dean refuses to leave him. The fog is everywhere. Dean, holding Sam, centers himself and takes a deep breath and stills a minute. But then, Dean notices he’s not turning. He yells out – ‘Stop this you dick! You hear me?!’ Silence falls. Dean, frantic, tries to comfort Sam who has fallen dead weight now, telling him “I’m here.’ Over and over. xxx Back at the bar, Metatron sits sulking and Chuck, working alone at the booth table yawns and stretches. He says he lied before, he didn’t learn to play guitar, he just gave himself the ability. He smiles, giddy, and says this ‘honesty thing’ is really freeing. Chuck goes up onto the stage and picks up the guitar and begins to play a song. He magics up some stage lights and tells Metatron to go read the new pages. Metatron says no at first, but as Chuck begins to sing, he makes his way over and starts to read As Chuck sings, the view flashes from him to Sam and Dean. Dean startles and, looking down at Sam sees a blinding bright light coming from Sam’s pocket. He pulls the Samulet out of Sam’s pocket. As he does, he notices that Sam is healed, -- no black veins. He stares at Sam, holding the Samulet. The fog is cleared in the station too. Sheriff Mac and the others , unscathed, come out of the back office.
Metatron reads through the pages that Chuck wrote, gasping in surprise. Chuck keeps singing.
Sam and Dean make their way outside, Dean holding the Samulet up and watching it glow. Life has returned to normal outside. Even Deputy Harris is resurrected, and stands up looking around. Suddenly, her Her husband comes running up and around the car, taking her into his arms. Dean looks again at the glowing amulet in his hand then up the street where a man in a jacket is helping a townsperson up from the streetvictim to their feet. The man turns , and it’s Chuck standing there. Sam and Dean stare in shock at Chuck who looks at them a moment, then says ‘we , "We should probably talk.’ END"
