Quotes
Sam: I'm not Sad Sam. I'm just... I'm thinking about Cas, you know? Jack. If they could be here.
Sam: Or Vampires.
Bobby: Yep.
Dean: What memory is this?
Bobby: It ain't ya idjit.
Dean: Yeah it is, 'cause the last I heard you... you were in Heaven's lockup.
Bobby: Was. Now I'm not. That kid of yours before he went... wherever, made some changes here. Busted my ass out. And then he -- Well, he set some things right. Tore down all the walls up here. Heaven ain't just reliving your golden oldies anymore. It's what it always should've been. Everyone happy. Everyone together. Rufus lives about five miles that way -- with Aretha. Thought she'd have better taste. And your mom and dad... they got a place over yonder. It ain't just Heaven, Dean. It's the Heaven you deserve. And we've been waiting for you.
Dean: So, Jack did all that?
Bobby: He'll be along. Time up here, it's... it's different. You got everything you could ever want... or need or... dream. So, I guess the question is... what are you gonna do now, Dean?
Dean: I think I'll go for a drive.
Sam: Dean.
Trivia & References
Dean: Dark, creepy, something out of Wes Craven's erotic fantasy? Yeah. It's 100% the place.
- Wes Craven was a horror filmmaker best know for the Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream franchises.
Sam: No.
- Dean wants to use a Shuriken (Star Knife) as a weapon. This has been seen in their weapons cache throughout the series, but never used.
Minutiae
- "As I head out to the first day on my LAST season finale, I can’t help but be incredibly grateful for all that #Supernatural and the #SPNFamily mean to me. It’s been an incredible journey, to say the least. I, for one, am hoping that #SupernaturalNeverDies."
Jensen responded:
- "Here we go, brother. This one’s for all the marbles."
- "So last night we completed 326 of Supernatural. And at the very end of every one of those scripts are three words: To Be Continued. Today we start episode 327, and at the very bottom, of the very last page of this script are only two words: (He holds up the script showing the words The End) Happy Friday everybody."
On the post Jared commented:
- "Let's bring it home brother"
Misha posted:
- "Don't make me cry. Again."
Jenny: Hey, Dean.
Dean: Well, look at you. You know, we tried to kill each other back in the day. Yeah. This is so weird.
- A reference to the events of 1.20 Dead Man's Blood where Jenny and Kate were the only vampires to escape the Winchesters on their very first vampire hunt.
Dean: Yes you can.
Sam: Yeah, well, I don't want to.
- Sam and Dean's exchange as Dean is dying is verbatim from 1.01 Pilot when Dean asks for Sam's help in finding their father.
Jensen: Thank you, the fans. Through blood, sweat, laughter, and tears, you've kept us on for 15 years.
Jared: There's no way we would have ever been here without you and your support and your love, so thank you. We will remain forever grateful for the opportunity and the honor to play these characters for so long, and we felt you guys here with us all the time. So thank you.
