Quotes
Trivia & References
"Nihilism" is the belief that nothing in life matters, and everything is meaningless.
Dean's dream bar in his subconscious, "Rocky's Bar", is a reference to Rocky of Rocky and Bullwinkle.
Dean: I got this great IPA from Austin -- Cosmic Cowboy. You're gonna love it.
- Cosmic Cowboy is a beer from Jensen's Family Business Beer Co. located in Austin, Texas.
Billie revealing to Dean how his death's have all been rewritten as the same thing -- Michael escaping and destroying the world -- except for one, is a reference to Avengers: Infinity War, where Doctor Strange looks into fourteen million, six hundred and five possible outcomes against Thanos, all of which result in their defeat, except for one.
Minutiae
Sam: Okay listen: back when Gadreel possessed me, he... he created I don't know, like a fake world inside my head. But Crowley was able to force his way in, he showed me how to take control and I drove the angel out.
- This refers to the events of 9.10 Road Trip.
Castiel: What is that?
Sam: Its the uh, messed up British Men of Letters thing they use to get inside people's heads.
- The device Sam refers to is the same one Lady Toni Bevell used to brainwash Mary Winchester and then to get Dean into her head in 12.22 Who We Are to save Mary.
While revisiting Dean's traumas, Dean can be heard yelling at Michael that they had a deal from 13.23 Let the Good Times Roll, his nightmare demonic self warning him that he would die and become a demon from 3.10 Dream a Little Dream of Me, Dean screaming for help in Hell from 3.16 No Rest for the Wicked.
