Epsiodes
7.01 Meet the New Boss & 7.02 Hello, Cruel World
- "Too late! Cas is umm...He's gone! He's dead! We run the show now."
Castiel opens a door to Purgatory and absorbs all the souls residing there. He then uses this power to obliterate archangel Raphael and declares himself a new and "better God." Over the course of several months Castiel performs many miracles and selfless deeds in his efforts to bring peace and order back to the world. Eventually, the Leviathans begin to stir within Castiel and demand to be let out. Castiel refuses to acknowledge them, however, and continues his campaign of righteousness. The Leviathans take their toll by eroding Castiel's vessel, causing him to black out and gaining control of his vessel for a brief moment.
When Castiel comes to his senses, he realizes the carnage the Leviathans have wrought and seeks out Sam and Dean's help in returning the souls to Purgatory. This is only partially successful, however, as the Leviathans succeed in "holding on" inside Castiel and soon after take full control of his vessel, declaring him dead and gleefully attacking Dean and Bobby.
7.02 Hello, Cruel World
- "We'll be back for you."
Before the Leviathans can finish Dean and Bobby, Castiel's vessel begins to rapidly deteriorate and oozes black blood. Knowing it cannot contain them all for long, the Leviathans abandon Dean and Bobby with the promise to return and directs the vessel to a nearby water supply. They then submerge the vessel and it implodes, releasing countless Leviathans. Castiel and his vessel are gone, leaving only his tattered trench coat behind, which Dean retrieves.
