Quotes

Sam: You want to talk? After what you did to us?

Crowley: After what I did to you? I gave you the Colt!
Sam: Yeah, and you knew it wouldn't work against the Devil!
Crowley: I never!

Sam: You set us up. We lost people on that suicide run, good people!
Crowley: That night you broke into my house- our first date - my valet hid a tracking device in your car. A magical coin that easily traps you bags of bones. It allows me to hear things. And oh my - the things I've heard.
Crowley: I've sold sin to saints for centuries. You think I can't close one little demon?
Brady: You're doing your best? Well do the best of someone better.
Brady: There is a position in communications that I think you would be perfect for.

Mitchell: Sounds great.
Brady: It is great. So what do you say, you ready to enter the cutthroat world of upper management?
Mitchell: Awesome.

Brady: Awesome. [slits Mitchell's throat] Watch the shoes, please.
Crowley: What?

Dean: [sees guards' corpses on the floor] You killed them?

Crowley: We're on a tight schedule. Come on. Now you're squeamish? Please.
Brady: See, War and Famine, even if I could cram the rings back on their bony fingers, I doubt it would do much good. They're withered husks right now, fetal position on the floor, all thanks to you. So I don't want the rings. What I want is retribution. And I'm going to rip it right out of your ass!
Crowley: What? It went like clockwork.

Dean: Not for me, you son of a bitch!

Crowley: That's what you get working with a Demon.



Trivia & References

Dean: [wearing a surgical mask while at the hospital] Hey, check it out. I look like the King of Pop.
A reference to the late Michael Jackson, and the fact that he was known for wearing surgical masks out in public.
Dean: That's the same time those statues started crying.
A crying statue is a supernatural religious phenomenon in which a statue begins to weep tears of blood, oil or scented liquids. Weeping statues are most often of the Virgin Mary, and are often followed by claims of Marian apparitions. A statue crying blood was seen in 4.09 I Know What You Did Last Summer.
Crowley: Fancy a fag and a chat?
In British jargon [and in this particular context], fag is slang for a cigarette.
Crowley: Go get 'em, tiger.
This is a direct line from the Spider-Man comic books, TV shows, and movies. It is a phrase of encouragement by Peter Parker's girlfriend/wife Mary Jane Watson.
Crowley: What? It went like clockwork.
In its context [after Dean has been beat up by Brady and after Crowley has knocked Brady out after repeatedly hitting him with a crowbar], this could be a reference to the Stanley Kubrick movie A Clockwork Orange, which is famous for (among other things) this beating scene.


Minutiae

The drug company Brady works for is called Niveus Pharmaceuticals. Niveus is a Latin word and means white or snowy.
During the drug company board meeting, Brady is holding a copy of the same newspaper and the same front page story shown being read by the store clerk in the closing scene of 5.19 Hammer of the Gods.
Crowley: This bit of carving will tie our friend her down. No zapping off, locked in the meat suit. An important part of our bargaining strategy. The symbol Crowley carves into Brady's chest, appears similar to the one's painted on the walls through Crowley's house. Meg used a similar Binding Link to stay inside Sam 2.14 Born Under a Bad Sign
