Quotes
Dean: What?
Dean: Well it's a little embarrassing saying it out loud, but we're looking for a flower.
Dean: I know you're sorry Cas. About Hell. About Mom.
Cas: I was talking about Jack. I already apologized to you. You just refused to hear it.
Dean: I'm sorry I bought it up. Maybe if you didn't just up and leave us.
Castiel: Well, Chuck's gone, but...
Dean: He'll be back.
Sam: If we can't kill Him or trap Him...

Sam and Dean have returned from a vampire hunt, and Sam is keen to head out again. Dean is feeling hopeless - there are just too many monsters and they aren't even saving people anymore. They mention that after Cas took on the Mark of Cain as part of the plot to cage Chuck he had to be locked in the Ma'lak Box, and Eileen, Donna, and the other wayward girls are dead. Of their friends, only Jody and Bobby are still hunting and Dean suspects they both have a death wish along with Sam.
