Quotes
Dean: That'd be cool.
Sam: It's a French movie.
Crowley: Oh God.
Rowena: Please it's nothing you haven't seen before.
Oliver: Winchester. You're Sam Winchester - Man of Letters.
Sam: Yeah, how-how did you-
Oliver: Mind reader, remember. And you're... what are you?
Castiel: I'm an angel.
Oliver: That-no, you can't be.
Castiel: Why not?
Oliver: Because I'm an atheist.
Dean: Rowena, what's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this? I'm sorry did I say nice girl? I meant evil skank.
Rowena: So you're choosing the Winchesters.
Crowley: I'm choosing me. I put up with your lies, your sad little schemes because-because maybe you were right, maybe I did lose my edge. But that ends now. Tell me Rowena, if I were not the King of Hell, would you have ever bothered to pretend to care about me?
Rowena: You-you can't.
