Quotes

Dean: Listen, Chuckles, even if there is a God, he is either dead—and that's the generous theory—

Castiel: He is out there, Dean.

Dean: Or he's up and kicking and doesn't give a rat's ass about any of us. I mean, look around you, man. The world is in the toilet. We are literally at the end of days here, and he's off somewhere drinking booze out of a coconut. All right?
Ellen: Real glad to see you boys. The can of whoop ass I ought to open on you.

[Ellen hits Dean]
Dean: Ow!

Ellen: You can't pick up a phone? What are you, allergic to giving me peace of mind? I got to find out that you're alive from Rufus?
Ellen: What kind of demons are these? Holy water and salt roll right off. My daughter may be an idiot, but she's not stupid. She wears an anti-possession charm. It's all kind of weird, right?
Dean: The whole thing's off.
Dean: 'And there fell a great star from Heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell upon the river, and the name of the star was Wormwood. And many men died.'

Pastor: Revelation eight ten. Are you saying that this is about the Apocalypse?
Dean: You could say. And these specific omens, they're prelude to what?
Pastor: The Four Horsemen.
Dean: And which one rides the red horse?

Pastor: War.
Dean: You said Jo called you a black-eyed bitch. They think we're demons, we think they're demons. What if there are no demons at all and we're all just killing each other?

Pastor: Wait, just back up. It's the Apocalypse?

Dean: Sorry, Padré.
Sam: So who are you?

War: Here's a hint. I was in Germany. Then in Germany. Then in the Middle East. I was in Darfur when my beeper went off. I'm waiting to hook up with my siblings. I've got three. We're going to have so much fun together.
Sam: I know who you are. There aren't any demons in town, are there?

War: Nope. Just frightened people ripping each other's throats out. I really haven't had to do too much. Take out a bridge here, lay in a little hallucination there, sit back, pop some corn, watch the show. Frankly, you're really vicious little animals, Sam.
War: You think I'm a monster. I'm jello shots at a party. I just remove inhibitions.
War: Save your protests for your brother. I can see inside your head. And man, it is one-track city in there. Blood, blood, blood. Lust for power. Same as always. You want to be strong again. But not just strong. Stronger than everybody. Good intentions—quick slide to hell, buddy boy. You feel bad now? Wait till you're thigh deep in warm corpses. Because, my friend, I'm just getting started.
Jo: Pipe bombs won't kill a demon.
Rufus: Right. But in my experience, demons come at you slower if they're in a body with no limbs.
Sam: From the minute I saw that blood, only thought in my head...and I tell myself it's for the right reasons, my intentions are good, and it, it feels true, you know? But I think, underneath... I just miss the feeling. I know how messed up that sounds, which means I know how messed up I am. Thing is, the problem's not the demon blood, not really. I mean, I, what I did, I can't blame the blood or Ruby or... anything. The problem's me. How far I'll go. There's something in me that... scares the hell out of me, Dean. In the last couple of days, I caught another glimpse...

Trivia & References

The episode title "Good God, Y'All" is from the line 'War! Huh! Good God, y'all' a lyric from the song "War" originally sung by Edwin Starr and covered by many including Frankie Goes to Hollywood and Bruce Springsteen.
Castiel: Yes. He isn't in Heaven. He has to be somewhere.

Dean: Try New Mexico. I hear he's on a tortilla.
Castiel: No, he's not on any flatbread.

This exchange is a reference to the sightings of images of Christ on tortillas.
When Ellen knocks on the door of the basement room, she knocks the morse code for S O S.
Austin: So, uh, you think that all this comes from outer space?

Dean: This isn't X-Files, pal.

The X-Files was a '90s TV series about FBI investigations of the paranormal and aliens. Many of the writers, producers, and directors of Supernatural have also done work for The X-Files.
War: Please. Last week, this was Mayberry. Now these people are stabbing each other's children.
Mayberry was the name of the idyllic small town where the '60s sitcom The Andy Griffith Show was set.
War comes to town driving a red Mustang. According to the Book of Revelation, War rides a red horse.
When War introduces himself to Sam, he says "I was in Germany, then in Germany, then in the Middle East... I was in Darfur when my beeper went off." This is somewhat similar to the lyrics of the Rolling Stones song "Sympathy for the Devil" in which the song's narrator (Lucifer) speaks of himself as being a protagonist or participant in many of the dark episodes of history. War's comment makes references to World War I, World War II, the Arab-Israeli conflict, and the genocide in Darfur.
Dean: So, pit stop at Mount Doom?
Dean is referring to the place where Frodo and Sam traveled to dispose of the Ring of Sauron in The Lord of the Rings. This is likely in response to the way War is defeated. His ring finger is cut off, which is how Sauron lost his power before the main events of The Lord of the Rings.
Rufus: I'm getting too old for this.
This is a reference to Danny Glover's famous catch phrase in the Lethal Weapon series.
