Well, ex-except science -- quantum mechanical unpredictability. But then the end of the world happened, and everyone around me -- my friends, and my-my mom -- they all started to die. But God chose me? What... What does that even mean?! Michael said he wanted to save the world, not kill it. But he... he's hurt so many people. When I couldn't perfect the spell, Michael, he got mad and threw me in the dungeon. And I was so scared, but I fixed it. B-but I... I couldn't do it anymore. |

Quotes
Dean: I thought this story had porn stars.
Gabriel: Ah! Good catch. My bad. I had it made -- all the booze I could drink, all the, uh, entertainment I could handle.
Sam: Okay! Why don't we just skip to the end?
Gabriel: So this is how it ended. By the time I came to, they had sold me to Asmodeus.
Sam: Why would they do that?
Sam: Yeah. We do.
Dean: Okay, you went through it. We get it. All right? But killing Loki? Not gonna change any of that. It's not. In fact, probably not even gonna make you feel better.
Sam: What if it's not?
Dean: You've seen it, Sam -- with me, with Dad. Revenge only ends one way -- ugly.Jack: I'm doing this for them.
Mary: You can't help them if you're dead. And I can't lose another boy.
Jack: You won't. I'll come back, for all of you. I promise.
Kevin: No.
Mary: Kevin?
Kevin: You can't go. Michael... he told me to wait -- for Bobby, for all of you to be together -- but I can't. He wanted you to see.
Mary: Whatever Michael said, he was lying.
Kevin: No! Michael says... that when I get to Heaven -- when he lets me into Heaven -- I'll get to see my Mom again.
Mary: I've been to Heaven, and what's there... it's just memories. Nothing's real.
Kevin: I don't care! You don't understand. I... You don't know the things that I've done. I just want this to be over.
Jack: Your spell won't kill me.
Mary: We can prepare and we can fight... and sometimes, things happen we'll never see coming.
Sam: Dean, we're going to that place, and we're gonna save Jack and Mom. Together. And if something happens, we will deal with it together. And if we die? We'll do that together, too.
Trivia & References
The similarity to the plot is even pointed out by Dean:
- Dean: Okay, I think I know what this is.
- Sam: Okay, what is this.
- Dean: You. You're so hopped up on this Kill Bill fantasy of his.
- Haggis is a Scottish delicacy which is prepared by cooking a sheep's heart, liver, and lungs along with various other ingredients inside a sheep's stomach.
Dean: Yeah, this isn't exactly the Riviera.
- Riviera is the Italian word for "coastline". The word is most often associated with the French Riviera and Italian Riviera, both known for their resorts.
Gabriel: Okay, they're not really demigods. Mm. Look, the whole Norse pantheon is its own weird thing. Think of 'em more like, uh, god-begotten monsters.
- Demigods are typically the offspring of a god and a mortal human. In Norse mythology, Loki's children came from his union with various different species. Fenrir was the product of Loki and the jötunn Angrboða and Sleipinir was the product of the stallion Svaðilfari who mated with Loki, who shapeshifted into a mare. Narfi, however was born of Loki and the Norse goddess Sigyn.
- Gabriel is describing the Binding of Loki.
- A reference to the Bride from Kill Bill who was played by Uma Thurman.
- S.F.V. refers to the San Fernando Valley in California, the center of the adult entertainment industry.
- "Tricks are for kids" is the tagline for the breakfast cereal Trix. The phrase "Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids" was also used in Kill Bill: Volume 1.
Minutiae
Gabriel: It's trippy, I know. Look, remember when I told you I went into witness protection? Well, who do you think put me there?
- This is a reference to 5.08 Changing Channels when, after Gabriel's identity is unmasked, he calls his disguise as the Trickster "my own personal witness protection."
North America in Apocalypse World is seen to be divided up into districts. The East Coast is divided into "Northeastern" and "Southern Sectors," with most of New England designated as R4 and Canada being designated the "Northern Ice Fields." The Midwest from the Dakotas on is designated the "Great Barren Plains," within which Michael's Fortress appears to be located somewhere in the vicinity of Kansas or Nebraska. Montana and Idaho appear to be labeled as "The Void" with Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico making up the "Western District." The West Coast and Texas have unknown designations. There also appears to be impact/ground zero markings over Detroit and Los Angeles. There is also a wall running along the U.S. / Mexico border, where Mexico is simply designated as "South of the Wall."
Gabriel: Hey, I did help you. "Casa Erotica"?
Sam: You call that help?
Gabriel: I call that art. But yes, without me, you two chuckleheads never would've known how to throw Lucifer back in the Cage.
- In 5.19 Hammer of the Gods Gabriel left Sam and Dean information on how to use the Horsemen rings to open up the Cage in a Casa Erotica DVD.
