Quotes

Sam: Dean. Dude.

Dean: Don't say it.

Sam: Maybe-maybe, let's not touch anything until we figure out if this stuff wants to kill us or not.

Dean: Nazis. I hate these guys.

Aaron: We're half through the ledger. I nailed six and the Golem got the rest. It feels good. Finishing what the Judah Initiative started.

Sam: You're grandfather would be proud.

Aaron: Yeah, well. Dropping out of college to wipe out Nazi corpse bags wasn't exactly my mother's dream, but what are you gonna do?

Ellie: Wait. No-no, you can't just shoot him.
Dean: Sure I can. I do it all the time.

Sam: I know it's hard to believe this right now. But, it will get easier. Trust me, I've been there.

Ellie: Oh right. Did someone want to use you to resurrect Adolf Hitler?
Sam: No, not exactly.
Ellie: There you go.
Sam: But they did want me to bring back Lucifer, I was his vessel-

Ellie: You almost, almost had me with Hitler. But Lucifer, really? The Devil? I can't do this.

Hitler: Sam und Dean Winchester. You must be important. He feared you. Nauhaus, he's still up here. Haha.

Sam: Dude. You killed Hitler.
Dean: Yeah. Awesome.

Dean: I killed Hitler. I killed Hitler. I killed Hitler. I think that entitles me to free drinks for the rest of my life. I'm gonna get t-shirts made.

Sam: You know no one's going to believe you, right?

Dean: You'll believe me. You were there.

Sam: So, how you holding up?

Ellie: Well, we just burned a pile of dead Nazi zombie bodies. One of which I killed. So, maybe like third worst day, ever. I had a rough time lately.
Sam: Yeah, and then all this happens.
Ellie: I think I'm gonna be okay though. I should probably call my Mom. I can only run for so long, you know. So, what do you think it harder? Facing the reincarnation of Hitler or going back to med school?

Sam: I think I gotta say Hitler.

Dean: You know I was thinking. Passed a bakery on the way into town, sign said 'Best Pie for a Thousand Miles.'

Sam: So, now you want pie?
Dean: I killed Hitler. I think I deserve some pie. Did I mention I killed Hitler.
Sam: I'm never going to hear the end of this am I?

Dean: Probably not.

Trivia & References

"The One You've Been Waiting For" is the title of a song by Nick Cave, released in 1997.

Dean: Check it out the old lady. Loaded. I'm talking Scrooge McDuck swimming in pools of money. So what's a lady like that doing in a crap store at 3AM?

Scrooge McDuck is the obscenely rich uncle of Donald Duck, who was known to go swimming in his vault full of money.

Sam: Dean it;s called sublimation.

Dean: Yeah. Yeah, it's kinda my thing.

Sublimation is the act taking certain idealizations are transferred to other acceptable behaviors.

Sam: Any idea what's cooking?

Aaron: Whatever it is it's big. We got out hands on some of their documents. Name of the mission is 'Das Blut' -- the blood.

Possible a reference to German war film Das Boot.

Dean: Alright skip the foreplay. What did your dad do to Hitler?

Christoph: He saved his life. He saved his soul, like literally. The watch, it's like a Horcrux.

In the Harry Potter series, a Horcrux is any object a dark wizard or witch uses to hide a piece of their souls.

Gottfried: What should we do with her Führer?

Hitler: Take the rest of her blood. Then give her to the dogs.
Gottfried: Führer we have no dogs.
Hitler: Then get some! I love doggies. Woof-woof-woof.

Hitler was a known lover of dogs, most notably his German Shepard, Blondi.

Dean: Nice new meatsuit. It come with two testicles this time?

Hitler: One of many upgrades I am enjoying. Like this. It's like having a tiny Goebbels in my pocket. I sold ten million copies of Mein Kampf. What do you think I can do with Twitter? Where's my plane!

It is believed that Hitler may have lost a testicle while fighting in the First World War. [1] was the Reich Minister of Propaganda. Mein Kampf (My Struggle) is the title to Hitler's autobiography, which he wrote during his stint in prison after his failed Beer Hall Putsch in 1923.
