|outline= A [[demon ]] kidnaps [[Ben]] and [[Lisa]] to get to [[Dean]]. [[Sam ]] and Dean are forced to join with an unlikely ally to free them.

Directly following [[Castiel]]'s visit in [[6.20 The Man Who Would Be King]], [[Bobby]] realizes that his copy of [[Moishe Campbell]]'s journal is missing. Bobby tells [[Dean]] and [[Sam]] that he thinks Castiel stole the journal so that he could read Moishe's notes about [[H.P. Lovecraft]], an author who was fascinated with the concept of doors to other dimensions. Thankfully, Bobby already made a copy of the journal, and as they discuss the possibility that Lovecraft knew something about [[Purgatory]], Dean receives a call from [[Ben]].

Sam and Dean enter the building and split up to search for Lisa and Ben. Sam is quickly jumped by two [[demons]] and locked, unconscious, in a room. Dean is able to fight his way through a number of demons to get to Lisa and Ben and free them, but as they move to leave, Lisa grabs [[Ruby's Knife|Ruby's knife]] and holds Ben hostage. She has been possessed by a demon, one that tortures Dean and Ben with what she says are Lisa's thoughts about them. Dean tells Ben to ignore her hateful words and throws [[Holy Waterholy water]] on her. Ben is able to get away and Dean disarms her, but when he starts to exorcise her, she grabs a straight razor from nearby and stabs herself in the stomach. Dean finishes the exorcism and she collapses, so Dean moves to help her. He tries to call Sam, but he doesn't answer, so Dean picks her up and gives his shotgun to Ben so that they can shoot their way out of the building. On their way out, they hear Sam banging on the door of the room where he's being held, and Dean shoots the lock to free him. They leave together and Sam hot-wires a car so that they can speed to a hospital with Lisa.
