In [[4.17 It's A Terrible Life]], Zachariah subsequently places was a high-ranking [[Deanangel]] and in the [[Sam WinchesterHost of Heaven]] into a line of work without their memories. Zachariah acts as Dean's manager and employer who is affiliated with the company. Near the end of the episode, however, he reveals himself as being a direct superior of served under [[CastielMichael]]. He explains that Dean has always destined to be a hunter and is needed to do something special, and that he has been deployed (possibly by held authority over lower-class [[Michaelangel]]) because of the situation with s like [[UrielCastiel]] in and [[4.16 On The Head Of A PinJoshua]] and claims that he is here . Zachariah preferred using mental manipulations to achieve his goals, going so far as to make sure that the place [[The 66 Seals|sealsDean]] don't break.  Later in and [[4.18 The Monster At The End Of This BookSam Winchester]], after the confrontation between into [[LilithSandover Bridge & Iron Inc.]] with no memory of their true identities, to show that they were not meant for normal lives and Sam to get them to agree to consent to be vessels and go forward with the intervention of an Apocalypse.<ref name="four17">[[Archangel]] on Chuck4.17 It's behalf, Zachariah appears before [[Chuck Shurleya Terrible Life]] and tells him to continue writing, and warns him not to alert Sam and Dean, and that the angels will revive him if he commits suicide.</ref>

In After his repeated failures in securing the Winchesters as vessels, Zachariah was removed from the [[4.22 Lucifer RisingHost of Heaven]], Dean is taken and retreated to Earth to await his final judgement by the angels drinking in a bar, but was given a final chance to secure Dean for [[Green Room|a safe structureMichael]] where he is held . He resurrected and monitored by manipulated [[CastielAdam Milligan]] and Zachariah. in an attempt to draw Dean eventually figures out that Zachariah has been in favor of the breaking of The 66 Seals that bind Lucifer into a trap to get him to say yes to Hell all alongMichael. After pleading and begging for helpIt seemed to work, Castiel helps but Dean by temporarily banishing taunted him, allowing him to get close to him and then stab Zachariah and teleporting Dean to stop Sam from killing Lilith, as her death is through the last seal.

His body was last seen in the [[ApocalypseGreen Room]] and alerts the Four Horsemenbefore it disappeared.<ref name="five18">[[5. 18 Point of No Return]]</ref>

Soon after the breaking of [[The 66 Seals]] and [[Archangel Lucifer]]'s release from the Cage, Zachariah and two angel assistants approach [[Dean]] and [[Sam]] at Chuck's house in Kripke's Hollow. Zachariah demands that Dean comes with them but Dean activates a angel banishing sigil, which sends them away temporarily. Zachariah later uses Chuck and lures the Winchester brothers to their father's lock-up in up state New York where he reveals to Dean that he is [[Archangel Michael]]'s Sword wherein he is the true vessel but Dean must first consent to possession. After denying angelic-possession by Michael, Zachariah starts torturing Dean and Sam but Castiel mysteriously returns from the dead and orders his superior away. He inscribes angelic runes into Sam and Dean's ribs which will hide them all angels, including Lucifer and himself. Sometime later in [[5.04 The End]], Zachariah finds Dean through fringe Christian groups and sends Dean five years into the future (2014). Zachariah appears and says that he wants Dean to see what will result if he continues to resist Michael. At the end of the episode, Zachariah prepares to take Dean hostage but Castiel intervenes and saves him. After Dean and Sam die and go to Heaven, Zacharaih searches for them so that he can resurrect them so they can serve as the Vessels of Michael and Lucifer. While in Heaven, Zachariah tells them that he has four faces and six wings in his true form. ==AppearancesEpisodes==[[ImageFile:ZacariahZachariah417-2.jpg|300px350px|leftright|thumb|Zachariah makes his first appearance as Mr. Adler in the [[alternate universe]] he created for [[4.17 It's A Terrible LifeSam]] and [[Dean]].]] ===[[4.17 It's A a Terrible Life]]===Under the guise of "Mr. Adler", Zachariah places [[Sam]] and [[Dean Winchester ]] into jobs with [[Sandover Bridge & Iron Inc.]], Dean as a corporate Wall Street type and Engineering, Sam in technical support. They are without their real memories, to show Dean that being a hunter is who he is and who he was always meant to be.

===[[4.18 The Monster At The at the End Of of This Book]]===Following [[Sam]]'s confrontation with [[Lilith]] and the arrival of Chuck's [[archangel]], Zachariah appears to [[Chuck Shurley]] after he has another vision. While it is not revealed what Chuck saw, he wants to warn Sam and Dean, but Zachariah tells him not to. Chuck threatens to kill himself, but Zachariah says they will only bring him back to life. In despair, Chuck asks what he should do. Zachariah replies "Do what you always do. Write."<br clear="all" />[[image:Caszach.Jpg|300px|left|thumb|Zachariah alongside of Castiel.]]

Zachariah and [[Castiel ]] hold [[Dean ]] hostage in preparation for the [[Apocalypse]]. When Dean confronts Zachariah, he finally admits that they don't want to stop [[Lilith ]] from breaking the last seal, which will free Lucifer. The upper cast caste of angels wants the Apocalypse to begin in order to defeat Hell and bring about paradise on Earth. Zachariah also reveals that Dean's role will be to kill [[Lucifer ]] after the [[Apocalypse ]] happens. He states that Sam also has a part to play and nudges him in the intended direction by leaving Sam a fake and hurtful voice mail purportedly from Dean to manipulate him.

Later, Castiel tries to help Dean escape in an effort to stop Sam killing Lilith, and unknowingly breaking the final seal. Zachariah arrives to stop him, but Castiel uses a [[Angel Banishing Sigil|sigil]] drawn in his own blood to send Zachariah away.

===[[5.01 Sympathy For The for the Devil]]===Zachariah arrives at Chuck's house with two other angels [[angel]]s in an attempt to force Dean to come with them. However, he and the other angels are sent away as Dean has drawn the Angel Banishing Sigil [[angel banishing sigil]] in preparation for the angels' arrival. Zachariah and his associates then show up at [[John's Locklock-up]]. The angel attempts to force [[Dean ]] into giving permission to the archangel Michael to use him as a [[vessel ]] in the fight against [[Lucifer]]. [[Dean ]] refuses, so Zachariah proceeds to torment him and Sam until Dean changes his mind. However, Castiel appears and dispatches the other angels with an [[Angel Killing Swordangel blade]]. Zachariah heals [[Sam ]] and [[Dean]], then flees.

With [[Sam ]] and [[Dean ]] hidden by the [[Enochian Sigilssigils]] engraved on their ribs by [[Castiel]], Zachariah employs fringe Christian groups to track down Dean. He sends him to 2014 to see the consequences of his refusal to become Michael's vessel. It is not clear whether this future is "true" or in some way altered by Zachariah in an effort to influence Dean's decision. Dean sees the devastation wrought by the [[Croatoan]] virus, the effect of the Apocalypse on himself, Castiel , and others, and most importantly finds out that Sam has consented to be Lucifer's vessel. Following a disastrous encounter between [[Future!Dean]] and Lucifer, Zachariah brings Dean back to 2009. When Dean still refuses to be a vessel, Zachariah prepares to take him captive, but Castiel teleports Dean away in time.

===[[5.16 Dark Side Of The of the Moon]]===When [[Sam ]] and [[Dean ]] are killed, [[Castiel ]] warns them that Zachariah is looking for them in [[Heaven ]] so that he can send them back to Earth and they can be made to consent to [[Michael ]] and [[Lucifer]]. After searching for the brothers in the memories they relive in Heaven, Zachariah finds and traps them in a forest, but they are saved by [[Ash]]. When Ash gives them a secret path to the Garden, they wind up in another memory of Dean's and Zachariah appears. Zachariah begins tormenting the brothers with an altered version of their mother to make them give in. Joshua then appears and tells Zachariah to release the brothers or risk [[God]]'s wrath. Zachariah then departs.

Zachariah is seen drinking at a bar and talking to a man named Stuart. He discusses his failure at work (consenting getting [[Sam ]] and [[Dean]] to consent)and his subsequent firing. Zachariah's boss, [[Michael]], appears, burning out the eyes of Stuart and the bartender in doing so. He gives Zachariah one more chance to consent convince [[Dean]]; Zachariah is overjoyed to accept and leaves the bar singing "When the Saints Go Marching In.". The plan involves resurrecting Sam and Dean's half-brother [[Adam Milligan|Adam]] to either act as [[Michael]]'s [[vessel ]] or force Dean's consent. Adam's resurrection is interrupted by Castiel, who brings Adam to the Winchesters and hides him from the angels. Later, Zachariah appears to [[Adam]] in a dream talking about their plan and how he cannot trust the Winchesters. Adam gives up his location and disappears with Zachariah. [[Castiel]] leads Sam and Dean to the [[Green Room]] where Zachariah has hidden Adam. It is located in an abandoned muffler factory in Van Nuys, California. While in the [[Green Room]] with Adam, Zachariah reveals the truth about why they brought back Adam and how they are expecting Dean to come and consent. Meanwhile, [[Castiel]] enters the factory and clears the way for Sam and Dean by killing one angel and banishing four others (along with himself). Sam and Dean enter the shed containing the Green Room and Zachariah overpowers them. Zachariah then tortures [[Sam]] and [[Adam]] until [[Dean]] says "Yes." Thrilled, Zachariah calls [[Michael]] to come down to his [[vessel]], Dean. Dean then manipulates Zachariah, telling him that Michael cannot enter Dean's body unless he can guarantee the safety of his loved ones and until Zachariah is dead. Angry, Zachariah grabs hold of Dean, telling him "Michael's not going to kill me." However, Dean informs him that ''he'' will, pulls out a hidden [[angel blade]], and stabs Zachariah through the chin and out the top of his head, killing him in an explosive burst of light that flings Dean into a wall. Zachariah's body is last seen leaning against a wall before the Green Room disappears, his body along with it. ===[[14.13 Lebanon]]===In an alternate timeline caused by [[John Winchester]] getting pulled from 2003, Zachariah arrives in [[Lebanon, Kansas]], with the alternate [[Castiel]] to investigate. Walking into a nearby restaurant, Zachariah demands to know who has been messing with time, causing the patrons to think he's nuts after he claims to be from [[Heaven]]. Giving one final warning, Zachariah threatens to have Castiel murder them all if someone does not answer, causing Castiel displays his wings. The effects of Castiel displaying his wings draws the attention of [[Sam]] and [[Dean]] from outside, prompting them to enter the restaurant to investigate, where they are shocked to find Zachariah. Zachariah is equally shocked to see the Winchesters, commenting that Heaven had big plans for the brothers before their father disappeared. Zachariah quickly realizes that the Winchesters are responsible for what happened and orders Castiel to kill them. As Castiel takes on Dean, Zachariah begins choking Sam, demanding to know what he did. Zachariah taunts Sam, moving closer as he demands that Sam speak. Zachariah doesn't notice Sam draw an [[angel blade]] from his belt as he moves closer. Once Zachariah is in his face, Sam stabs him in the heart with the angel blade, killing him.

Later, Zachariah appears After John is returned to Adam in a dream talking about their plan and how he cannot trust the Winchesters. Adam gives up his location and disappears with Zachariah. Castiel leads Sam and Dean to the [[Green Room]] where Zachariah has hidden Adam. It is located in an abandon muffler factory in Van Nuys, California. While in the Green Room with Adam, Zachariah reveals the truth about why they brought back Adam and how they are expecting Dean to come and consent. Meanwhile, Castiel enters the factory and clears the way for Sam and Dean by killing one angel and banishing four others (along with himself). Sam and Dean enter the shed containing the Green Room and Zachariah overpowers them. Zachariah then tortures Sam and Adam until Dean says 'Yes'. Thrilledown time, Zachariah calls Michael events return to come down to his vessel, Dean. Dean then manipulates Zachariahnormal, telling him that Michael cannot enter Dean's body unless he can guarantee erasing the safety of his loved ones and until alternate timeline Zachariah is dead. Angry, Zachariah grabs hold of Dean, telling him Michael will do no such thing, but Dean says "I would", produces a hidden Angel Killing Sword and uses it to dispatch Zachariah.<br clear="all" />[[Image:Zachdead.png|300px|right|thumb|Zachariah lies dead in the Green Roomfrom existence.]]

Dean and Sam respectively killed the original Zachariah and an alternate timeline counterpart of him in [[5.18 Point of No Return]] and [[14.13 Lebanon]].
