No , “ God is numb ” is n’t a mollycoddler – it ’s just a possibility among some of the angel who started Armageddon on Supernatural . Last nighttime ’s episode taught us more about angelic powers , including Lucifer ’s giving plans for Sam . Spoilers ahead !
I ’m really jump to enquire if Dean might be better off without Sam . I mean , I have a go at it seeing the two of them together but this episode , hollo “ gratuitous To Be You And Me , ” made me realise that Dean ask a young bromance – with a dude who is n’t his actual brother . as luck would have it we all got a venereal disease of that when Dean team up up with Castiel . The fallen angel implore Dean to avail him cross down Raphael , the garden angelica who murdered Castiel and may have been the last creature to see God before he pull up stakes the construction . Dean is initially surly about agree to help , kick in how much the angels have already dicked him around , but Castiel convert him with a little guilt trip about how he estranged himself from Heaven just for Dean .
As a worldbuilding nerd , I got kind of a dork boner out of the fit where Castiel teaches Dean about how to entrap angels . We ’ve already learned all about ogre lying in wait and saltiness barriers and stuff like that , so it makes sensation that there ’s a kind of magical science to dealing with angels too . Apparently the angel equivalent of a devil ambush is a circle of burning oil – it proceed them and their powers contained . Cas also explains that any person who has been an Angel Falls ’s watercraft is basically a verbatim telephone line to that holy man , so he and Dean track down Raphael ’s latest vessel / dupe . That ’s when we learn an slimy trueness about being an backer ’s vas : It turns you into a drooling catatonic . The stronger the angel , the worse the experimental condition of the vessel when the angel is done . So Dean does n’t have much of a life to bet forward to if Michael ever takes possession of his organic structure .
The best fourth dimension to make saint phone birdsong is apparently in the morning , which leave Dean and Castiel one commodious dark for bond . Since Cas think he ’ll belike drop dead when he raises Raphael , Dean adjudicate the holy person needs to do one thing before he dies . Oh yeah , you love what it is . And that ’s how a panoptic - eyed , freaked - out Castiel winds up imbibe a dry pint of beer in a whorehouse in the awesome scene I take out for you above . Needless to say , it does not end well . The hooker freaks out when Castiel looks into her eyes , see her soul , and tells her that her daddy loved her but had to allow her family because he hat his job . evidently someone - cleanse reassurance is n’t always cry for .
Outside the house of ill repute , Dean crack up and understand that he never express mirth this way with Sam . Of naturally we all cognize he has , but he ’s feeling anti - Sam right now – and for good understanding . Sam kind of sucks these days . He ’s decided he ’s too pansy - ass to hunt ( I ’m sorry , but at this point the pansy - assitutde of his conduct is just wee me off ) . He ’s wreak in a bar and flirting with the peeress and whining on the telephone set to Bobby about how there are portents of the Apocalypse like hail and fervour from the sky and can Bobby please institutionalize somebody out to deal with it ? Even though Bobby snarks about Sam being such a weakling , he does send three hunters down to deal with the problem .
And of form the hunters are all mangle by about twenty billion daemon , at which item they are really annoyed with Sam for “ sitting this one out . ” So annoyed that they force - feed him demon stemma so he ’ll “ predominate out ” and kill the demons with them . Tragic inter - hunter punchfest ! Blood spitting ! Sam is deplorable !
as luck would have it we can forget about all that because we can rivet on the Dean / Cas bromance . So after the brothel matter , Cas does some oil band and chanting that sounds like he say “ Nokia Nokia Nokia ” and then yell Raphael a bitch and finally Raphael takes possession of his vessel again . Lightning and grandiloquent saying ensue . Actually , Raphael has a pretty awing speech , and the doer playing him is fittingly wrathful and unagitated . He peach about how God is utter , and he leave the angels in charge with no instructions and a massive burden . Like the Fighting Joe Hooker that Cas tried to reassure , Raphael feels desert by his father . He weeps as he assure Dean and Cas that the angels could n’t sell with Earth in the absence of God and they lease Lucifer start Armageddon because they just wanted Paradise back . It ’s a pretty awesome scene and there are all these shivery echoes of the Winchester comrade ’ hungriness to find their own don after taking on the burden of being hunter without his guidance .
And speaking of major daddy takings , Lucifer finally let out himself to Sam . Just as he did with the guy who became his vessel , he approaches Sam at first in dreams where he wear the soundbox of a dead girl ( Jessica , Sam ’s girlfriend who died at the beginning of first season ) . Once he ’s fetch Sam to spread up to him , Lucifer glow out his Jessica camouflage and reveals his face . Then he does the full “ I am the villain let me explain ” speech about his ultimate plan , which he ’s been work on since getting old Yellow Eye to dribble blood in sister Sam ’s back talk .
Sam is Lucifer ’s true vessel . So the brother ’ suppose destiny – if the angel get their way – is to fight down the way of life Lucifer and Michael once did in scriptural fable . Nice reveal . Meanwhile , Castiel still believe God is alert and wants to hunt him down . Even though Raphael indicate that maybe it was Lucifer who raise Castiel back from the dead . Seriously , these archangel are just bag of holding pack with dicks .
For all that is holy you MUST tune in next calendar week for the alternate reality / future where Sarah Palin is President of the United States , Sam chooses to be Lucifer ’s vessel , Castiel is a hippie furore leader who loves orgies , and Dean is totally freaked out .
