Quotes
Dean: I don't know. Who won the Nobel Peace Prize? Why don't we start there?
Crowley: Can I get you without the flannel? No. Still I endure.
Dean: What are they saying?
Castiel: There's been a massive surge in celestial energy. A Nephilim has come into being. It's the offspring of an angel and human.
Dean: And that's big news?
Castiel: Yes. But the power that produced this is immense. Much more powerful than a typical angel.
Sam: Lucifer.
Dean: I'm sorry, who the hell are you?
Castiel: My name is Castiel. And no. But the truth can be situational.
Rowena: Well, dear. I'm a witch, he's an angel.
Crowley: And I'm the King of Hell.
Kelly: Oh God.
Sam: Go to Hell!
