Quotes
Dagon: Yeah. And he's not gonna stop there. Every sad, weak human, every tight-ass angel, every sniveling demon... they'll all be consumed. So go ahead. Play your games. But whether you're healthy or sick, filthy or clean, he will be born. Good times. But until then... Do us both a favor? Take a bath.
Dean: You think you're the only one rolling snake eyes here? Me and Sam, we had her. We had Kelly and we lost her.
Castiel: This has nothing to do with my reputation. I am doing this for the Winchesters. I-I stole the Colt to keep them out of this mission and to keep them safe from Dagon, and I... I will kill this girl so that Sam and Dean don't have to.
Sam: Dean, Cas wouldn't have taken the Colt if he wasn't going up against something big.
Kelly: Or lift it to its feet. This baby, nothing is born evil.
Kelly: I'm going with Castiel.
Dean: What? The lying? The Heaven plan? Or the fact that I'm working on this stupid truck?
Sam: No, I mean, what's wrong with Cas?
Castiel: I am. I've been so lost. I'm not lost anymore. And I know now that this child must be born with all of his power.
Sam: You can't actually mean that.
