Quotes
Chuck: But I am, I-I'm the Lord.
Lucifer: No, you betrayed me. You gave me the Mark to lock her away, and when it changed me when it did what the Mark inevitably does. You threw me away.
Chuck: No son. The Mark... you always cast a jaundice glance at humans. The Mark didn't change you. It just made you more of what you already were.
Dean: Okay. Shut up.
Chuck: Maybe it didn't work because you didn't want it to work. Maybe you didn't want to kill her.
Sam: You want God to kill Amara, because you don't want Amara to be killed?
Dean: Yeah maybe there's a part of me that just can't hurt her. But if she's already dead...
Rowena: Sorry about, well, everything I've ever done in my life. Really, you can't have been a fan.
Chuck: Oh yeah. I've been quietly rooting against you both for some time now. although I can't deny yo're one of my guilty pleasures.
Rowena: Oh, God.
Crowley: Oh God.
Dean: So what am I supposed to do, just sit by and watch?
Sam: No. We're both in this fight. You're leading this army.
Amara: An apology at last. What's 'sorry' to me? I spent millions of years crammed in that cage. Alone and afraid, wishing and begging for death because of you. What was my crime brother?!
Chuck: The world needed to be born and you wouldn't let me.
Amara: That's your story, not mine. The real reason you banished me, why I couldn't be allowed to exist. You couldn't stand that we were equals. We weren't great or powerful only because we stood in relation to each other. You think you made the archangels to bring light? No. You made them to create lesser beings, to make you large, to make you Lord. It was ego. You wanted to be big.
Chuck: That's true. But it isn't the whole truth. There's a value, a glory in creation that's greater and truer than my pride or my ego. Call it grace call it being, whatever it is it didn't come from my hands, it was there, waiting to be born. It just is. As you and I just were. Since you've been free I know you've seen it, felt it.
Sam: He's dead. God's dead.
Trivia & References
- "But we in it shall be remembered-
- We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
- For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
- Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,"
Dean: This is like the worst episode of Full House ever.
Lucifer: You have any idea what it's like to argue with your father when your Father is God? Everything is a tautology. Everything is 'because I told you so.' Everything's 'it had to be done.'
Dean: Pretty sure that's all fathers.
- Tautology is a form of rhetoric, where the same thing is said twice in different ways.
- The peanut gallery was a vaudville term for the cheapest seats at show, where the audience would typically heckle the performers.
