Quotes
Drexel: Fourth Prince of Hell.
Dean: Do I ever want you to drive?
Jack: Three days, seventeen hours, and forty-two minutes.
Jack: Is that why Dean hates me?
Sam: Dean doesn't hate you. It -- look sometimes the wires in Dean's head get crossed, and -- and he gets frustrated, and then he mixes frustration with anger and -- and fear.
Jack: Why would he be afraid.
Sam: Because Dean feels like it's his job to protect everyone, and right now we need to protect you. But we also we may need to protect people from you.
Jack: Maybe I'm not worth all this.
Mary: You think I want you to win?
Dean: Oh, okay. Please tell me what's going on here?
Lucifer: You know alternate universes, inter-dimensional travel, blah, blah, blah. It's her fault. I buy that you're Michael. But you sorta seem like a cheap knockoff to the one I left behind. And he's a hot mess.
Dean: No. No, whatever that was, that was reflex. That was a sneeze. Maybe the next time he sneezes, he kills us.
Jack: Exactly. What the hell am I? I can't control... whatever this is. I will hurt someone.
Dean: You know my brother thinks you can be saved.
Jack: You don't believe that.
Dean: No, I don't.
Jack: So, if you're right?
Trivia & References
- In Jewish folklore, the shedim are considered demons or evil spirits. They are believed to either be the decedents of serpent-like demons, and in one legend they are thought to have meant to have been the first humans, whom God did not complete due to needing to rest on the Sabbath.
Dean: Oh, yeah. He's big in the Bible, lot of screen time.
Jack: And you knew him?
Sam: He's not really an easy guy to know, he's rough around the edges.
Dean: He's Satan.
- Lucifer appears most famously in Isaiah 14:12, where a translation using the Latin Vulgate, took the phrase "morning star" and subbed it with "lucifer."
- "How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, 'I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.' But you are brought down to the realm of the dead, to the depths of the pit. Those who see you stare at you, they ponder your fate: 'Is this the man who shook the earth and made kingdoms tremble, the man who made the world a wilderness, who overthrew its cities and would not let his captives go home?'"
- It is believed by modern scholars that the the "morning star" was not referencing a fallen angel, rather an unnamed king of Babylon.
Donatello: Pretty much. No soul of course, thanks to Amara. It's kinda like losing your appendix. You never really noticed it when you had it. But now when I come to a moral crossroad, I ask myself, 'what would Mr. Rogers do?' And as soon as I nail that, I'm usually good.
- "Mr Rogers" refers to Fred Rogers the kindly, good host of the children's show Mister Roger's Neighborhood.
Sam: But this isn't a lion! This is a human!
Donatello: With a strong dose of God juice.
Dean: Okay, that's it I'm done. Because he's not God, he's not Cas, he' not Simba. He's the freakin' Devil.
- "The nature versus nurture conundrum" refers to the consideration as to whether aspects of a person's character are primarily shaped by their genetics (nature) or the environment of their upbringing (nurture).
- "Land of the bizarroo" refers to Apocalypse World. The term originated in Superman comics but has since become widely used for an alternate universe that is similar but different in some significant way to our world.
Dean: Mmhmm. Yeah, hopefully this fourth Prince of Hell is the last Kardashian of the family.
- The Kardashians are a family who became famous through a long running reality TV series based around them.
