Quotes

Dean: You know what miracles are called from demons? I don't know, but I'm pretty sure it's not miracles.

Sam: How about this? Let's just hear the guy out.

Dean: Alright. And after that we kill him.
Barthamus: I'm a crossroads demon, Sam. After Crowley's promotion to King of Hell, the crossroads demon, helping people is what I do. My raison d'etre.
Dean: You see here's the thing. When a demon asks us to jump, we don't say 'how high.' We just ice their ass.
Barthamus: How very Dean of you.
Dean: Sammy, you know that these things usually don't go out way.
Sam: It doesn't matter. Jack is out there, in the world. And he's alone, and he's scared, and he's dangerous. And if this is out chance to find him, we have to take it.
Dean: All right. Well, I've seen this movie a thousand times. Some asshat, who's too fancy to get his hands dirty. Plans a job, swears it will all go smooth and it does. Until 'bang' and everything goes screaming off the rails, and it's our asses. You know he's going to screw us over first chance he gets.

Sam: Not if we screw him over first. Listen, we want that spell, right? I mean we need that spell and we definitely don't want Asmodeus getting his hands on it. So, let's do this. Have him hand over the other half of the spell.
Dean: And then?

Sam: And then it's like you said. We kill him.
Sam: Dean. Don't get dead.
Dean: You too.

Trivia & References

The Scorpion and the Frog is a fable about the nature of creatures, where a scorpion asks a frog to ferry it across a river. The scorpion promises the frog it will not sting it, rationalizing doing so would mean they would both drown. As the frog is taking the scorpion across the river, the scorpion stings the frog. Before the frog dies, it asks the scorpion why it stung him? The scorpion simply replied that it was in its nature to do so.
Dean: Ah, so what are we talking? Your favorite My Little Pony.
Sam: It's, uh, John Dortmunder. We emailed about my family heirloom.
Dean: Hey, Wynonna. '90s called, they'd like their shoes back.
