Anna appears in Dean's dream and tells him she has been held prisoner and tortured in heaven after Castiel turned her in but has temporarily escaped, . Because of the Enochian Sigils on his ribs, she can't find Dean and urgently asks him to meet her. Castiel knows that you cannot escape heaven's prison and goes to meet Anna in the brothers' place knowing she must have been converted and released on a mission. Castiel, carrying the Angel Killing Sword with him, and Anna meet up and she tells him that Sam must die to save the world. After her efforts to convince Castiel of her plans are unsuccessful, Anna is sent back in time to 1978 to kill Mary and John Winchester and prevent Sam from ever being born. Castiel and the boys follow after her to protect Mary and John but the trip has some side effects on Castiel. Anna manages to lure John away by impersonating his boss on the phone, but he is saved by Dean, Mary and Sam who sends Anna away using the Angel Banishing Sigil.
Sam and Dean explain the situation as best they can without revealing too much to their parents and take them up to Mary's parents' cabin. While preparing the house Dean and Sam tell Mary who they really are and that maybe their not being born could solve everything, so she should leave John.

They all end up going up against Anna and a young Uriel, whom Anna recruited, in a fight in which Sam is critically injured when Anna stabs him with a pipe she pulls out of a wall. John tries to help out as best as he can by allowing Michael, who has joined them, to possess him to save his wife. Michael kills Anna and sends the young Uriel back "home". He explains to Dean that the two brothers and their family line go all the way back to Cain and Abel and that what's coming must and will come. He says that Dean must agree to being his vessel when he time comes. As he leaves Michael heals Sam and sends them back to the present and makes sure Mary and John will not remember any of the events of the day so that Dean and Sam Winchester are born.
