Quotes

Mary: Also, you know if you wanted to make it a full reunion, you could call Sam over.
Dean: Yeah, you know I was thinking I'd actually be a little bit greedy with my Mom time, if that's cool.

Dean: He comes back, he's standing there he's soaking wet. And He's pulling bologna and sliced cheese out of his pants. So, being the big brother, I'm the cook. I take all that bologna all that sliced cheese and I put on a hot plate.

Mary: No?

Dean: Yeah. It stunk up that room so bad. Dad comes home and he's so mad, he picks up everything and chucks it in the trash. Probably reminded him of you... Anyway it didn't taste right, it didn't taste like this.

Mary: Sometimes I forget just how much I missed while I was gone. And how much the two of you just --
Dean: But you're here now, right? I mean the last couple of years have been a little rough, just knowing that you're around, that you're alive. Mom that's meant everything to me and everything to Sam. And how great is this? Hm, you and me sitting here eating the real thing, not some bologna version of Winchester Surprise. You know we're not fighting any monsters, there's no clouds in the horizon.

Mary: Dean, whatever you're going through you can talk to me.
Dean: Everybody keeps asking how I am. And how I am is I don't wanna talk about it. Please.

Sam: It's not about being dumb Dean, it's called compassion. Look what happened to Nick, could have happened to me. It almost happened to me, you change one little thing in our past and that was me, Lucifer wearing me to the prom. Besides when do we give up on people, since when do we just cut people loose?
Dean: Well, maybe we need to learn. Because when people are past the point of saving, maybe you need to learn to walk away.

Abraxas: You wanna know why I gutted your family? Orders. I was following orders.

Nick: From who?
Abraxas: Who do you think? Lucifer planned the whole thing.
Nick: I don't -- I don't understand. Why my family? Why -- why me?

Abraxas: No particular reason. You were chosen, but you're not special. We threw a dart at the phone book.

Sam: Why?
Nick: I needed the truth Sam, I needed revenge for my family. You would have done the same thing.

Sam: I'm sorry. I'm sorry I couldn't help you, I'm sorry I didn't know how.

Nick: It's not about you Sam, it was never about you. You couldn't fix me, because I didn't want to be fixed. I was never broken.

Sam: Yeah, Nick you are. I don't feel sorry for you Nick, I feel sorry for the people you hurt, the people you murdered. The people whose faces will haunt you, every night for the rest of your life. You can burn.

Trivia & References

The books Dean takes from the Bunker include Fallen Angels and Historia Achengeli by Maria Prophetissima. Maria Prophetissima, also known as Mary the Jewess and Mary the Prophetess, was an alchemist that many consider to be the first true alchemist of the Western world.

Dean: Whatcha reading?

Sam: Uh, going back through the Book of Jubilees. The way they classify angels is really interesting.

The Book of Jubilees is an ancient Jewish text, not considered canon by most churches. The book classifies angels into four groups: angels of the presence, angels of sanctifications, guardian angels over individuals, and angels presiding over the phenomena of nature. As well as the genesis of angels and the rise of the Nephilim.

Dean: It's a Ma'lak Box, secured and warded. Once inside, nothing gets out. Not even an archangel, especially an archangel.

Ma'lak is the Semitic word for "angel."

Minutiae

Nelson Leis, who played Jeff / Abraxas, previous played Esper in 8.21 The Great Escapist.

Nick is shown to be wanted for his murder spree as discovered by Donna Hanscum when she ran his fingerprints. Though Donna presumably learned his full name, it is neither shown nor mentioned with Donna simply calling him "some guy Nick."

Doug Stover is stated to have left the police force and is working private security in Duluth. Donna Hanscum has continued to help training Jody Mills' adopted family and Alex Jones is stated to have killed two vetala all by herself.

As evidenced by the posters in Donna's shed, men with mustache's appear to be her type.

Like her husband, Mary Winchester has her own lock-up. Additionally, it has a booby trap like John's Lock-up was seen to have in 3.03 Bad Day at Black Rock. Some of the items that can be seen in the lock-up include a severed head in a jar, a presumably cursed doll, and an Enochian Puzzle Box

Dean: Sam, you've tried. Cas has tried. Jack... And I love you for trying.

This is the first episode where a Winchester brother directly tells the other they love them.
