Dean, Sam, and Crowley are still arguing over when to trap Lucifer when Sam sees a message burned into a rusted cabinet that reads "BACK FROM THE DEAD, FERGUS!" Soon they are in an abandoned church with Rowena, preparing to summon Lucifer and expel him out of Castiel. They set up [[angel suppressing sigils]] inside an [[angel trap]] with a ring of [[holy oil]] around it and Dean recites a spell, summoning Lucifer. When Lucifer appears in the center of the sigil, Sam lights the holy oil, creating a ring of holy fire around Lucifer and trapping him. Dean slices his hand and activates the sigil drawn on the table, causing Lucifer to temporarily lose control of the vessel. Castiel converses briefly with Dean, but he fades away again before Dean can convince him to expel Lucifer.
As the warding starts to fail, Crowley smokes out of his body and into Lucifer/Castiel. Once inside, he finds Castiel contentedly watching TV in a simulacrum of the kitchen in [[the Bunker]]. Crowley tries to convince Castiel to push Lucifer out, but Castiel is fairly ambivalent, believing Lucifer is their best bet in the fight against Amara. Lucifer then enters the room and starts throwing Crowley around. Out in the church, the words "HELP ME" appear burned into Crowley’s forehead. Sam and Dean perform an [[exorcism]], pulling Crowley back out. The holy fire goes out, prompting Crowley to disappear and allowing Lucifer to take the Horn. As he starts to hurt Sam and Dean, Amara explodes through the church doors and confronts Lucifer. The Horn of Joshua starts to glow in Lucifer’s hand as he begins to absorb its power. He raises the other hand to Amara, a stream of energy flowing from him to her, engulfing Amara in a white light. When the Horn's power is depleted, Amara is still standing. She pulls Lucifer towards her and places his face in her hands. As Dean calls out one last time to Castiel, Amara looks on him with concern and releases them from Lucifer's binding before the two disappear.
Back at the Bunker, Sam and Dean discuss why Lucifer couldn’t beat Amara. They hypothesize that the Hand of God has to be used by "God’s Chosen," thus a cast-out [[archangel]] wouldn’t qualify. Sam apologizes for not wanting to pull Lucifer out of Castiel, and Dean says that they agreed to respect each other’s wishes, even if they don’t agree with them. After that, Dean said they will "find that idiot and bring him home." Meanwhile, Amara is tossing Lucifer around. Lucifer suggests that he could be helpful to her in settling her score with [[God]]. She expresses distrust for him but agrees he could be useful in getting God to show Himself, as he might be the one thing that God cares about -- that God might show Himself if Lucifer is threatened. As he is explaining that God will not come, Amara says that they will see and turns and points at Lucifer. He screams in agony as his chest and eyes start to glow with a bright light.
'''Crowley:''' What? I just said I'd give you the thing.<br>
'''Sam''' / '''Dean:''' If?<br>
'''Crowley:''' Is this how you say '"thank you'"? You think these things grow on bloody trees!?

'''Lucifer:''' Oh, come on! It's not like He invented the Prius, which actually works. I don't have to tell you people what a mess mankind is. The Salem Witch Trials, Third Reich, Twin Towers. And, sure, every once in a while, He'll send down a plague to straighten them out, but it's nothing permanent. Humanity brought us Hiroshima and got a redo. I simply questioned His priorities and I got the boot.

'''Amara:''' As God's favorite, His first son, you may be the one thing in all of creation that He still cares about. The one thing that could finally make Him show Himself, so I can confront Him and He can acknowledge the wrongs He's done me.
:''While [[Lucifer]] may have been first in his [[God|Father]]'s affection, it has been previously established ([[5.10 Abandon All Hope...]], [[5.22 Swan Song]]) that [[Michael]] was the eldest [[archangel]], and Lucifer was his younger brother. Either Amara doesn't realize that Michael is God's first son, or she is strictly referring to God's order of preference.''
