Quotes
Dean: What?
Dean: Well it's a little embarrassing saying it out loud, but we're looking for a flower.
Dean: I know you're sorry Cas. About Bel. About Mom.
Cas: I was talking about Jack. I already apologized to you. You just refused to hear it.
Dean: I'm sorry I bought it up. Maybe if you didn't just up and leave us.
Chuck: You can't, Sam. You - Sam Winchester - have been playing fast and loose with the laws of nature and magic and for a very long time. You and your brother, Always breaking the rules. That's what I love about you Sam. It's so heroic. So Promethean. But there's still so much about the fabric of the universe you don't know, you can't know, because you're only humans. But I'm God. Think beyond the Mark, beyond you and Dean fanging out - heartbreaking but not the headline news.
Sam: Monsters.
Chuck: Oh yeah? Why not?
Dean: Because you are holding out. For your big finish. Yeah we know about your galaxy-brained idea. How you think this story is going to go. Sam got a little look into your draft folder.
Chuck: Sam's visions? They weren't drafts - they were memories. My memories. Other Sams and other Deans, in other worlds. But guess what? Just like you they didn't think they'd do it either. But they did. And you will too.
Dean: No. Not this Sam. And not this Dean. So go back to Earth-2 and play with your other toys, because we will never give you the ending you want.
Castiel: Well, Chuck's gone, but...
Dean: He'll be back.
Sam: If we can't kill Him or trap Him...
