Changes

|location= Cold Oak, South Dakota<br>Sioux Falls, South Dakota<br>[[Fossil Butte Cemetery]], Southern Wyoming

Dean is unable to decide what to do next and is heartbroken at the thought of letting everyone in his life down. In a fit of despair, he drives to the nearest crossroads and summons a demon[[Crossroads Demon]]. The demon, however, will not agree to grant Dean the return of his brother and ten years of life. The demon offers Dean one year, and one year only, promising that if he tries to get out of the deal, Sam will drop dead straight away. Dean agrees. Sam wakes up in pain but is largely healed. Because his brother is unaware that he has been resurrected from the dead, Dean lies and tells Sam he was only wounded. Sam fills Dean in on what happened previously ([[2.21 All Hell Breaks Loose: Part One]]) and wants to recommence hunting immediately. Dean, reluctant but unable to deter Sam, drives them over to [[Singer Salvage Yard|Bobby's place]].

Sam wakes up in pain but is largely healed. Because his brother is unaware that he has been resurrected from the dead, Dean lies and tells Sam he was only wounded. Sam fills Dean in on what happened previously ([[2.21 All Hell Breaks Loose: Part One]]) and wants to recommence hunting immediately. Dean, reluctant but unable to deter Sam, drives them over to [[Singer Salvage Yard|Bobby's place]]. Bobby sees Sam and knows immediately what Dean has done, but plays along, and privately reproaches Dean. So far Bobby has found nothing but a huge number of demonic omens appearing in the state of Wyoming, except for one particular areaof the state. [[Ellen Harvelle|Ellen]] appears at Bobby's and, after Bobby gets her to drink [[holy water]] to confirm that she is not possessed, she produces a map of Wyoming that [[Ash]] left. On the map, five locations have been marked with Xs. Each X marks an abandoned frontier church, all mid-19th century, built by [[Samuel Colt]]. A set of iron railway lines connecting each church forms a pentagram, making a hundred -square -mile [[devil's trap]].

Jake arrives in Wyoming and the Yellow-Eyed Demon gives him instructions to open a crypt with the Colt as the key. On arrival arriving at the cemetery, Dean, Sam, Bobby , and Ellen ambush Jake but are overpowered by his psychic powers. Jake unlocks the crypt and is shot dead multiple times by Sam. Dean removes the Colt and they dive for cover as the doors are flung open and a tremor ripples out from the crypt, breaking the railway line and thus the devil's trap. Hundreds of demons and ghosts fly out of the crypt, which is actually a [[Devil's Gate in Wyoming|Devil's Gate]], -- an entrance to Hell, -- and enter the world.

Bobby, Ellen , and Sam run to shut the doors of the Devil's Gatecrypt. The Yellow-Eyed Demon steps into the cemetery, snatches the Colt from Dean , and flings him against a headstone. He thanks Dean for bringing Sam back into the game and prepares to kill him. Suddenly, the spirit of [[John Winchester|John]] appears and wrestles the Demon out of his physical body, giving Dean enough time to grab the Colt and shoot the Demon when he re-enters the body, killing him. Ellen and Bobby then manage to close the Devil's Gate.

John shares an emotional moment with his sons , then moves on and disappears. Sam finds out the truth about his death and what Dean did to save him. In an emotional moment of brotherly love, Sam swears that he will get Dean out of his deal. Even though the Yellow-Eyed Demon died, an army of demons was unleashed; the war has just begun.

'''Dean:''' Whoa, whoa, whoa. Easy, Van Damme. You just woke up, all right? Let's get you something to eat. Huh? You want something to eat? (SAM Sam nods) I'm starving. Come on.

At the end of [[1.01 Pilot]], there is a shot of [[Dean]] and [[Sam]] standing over the trunk of the [[Impala]]. As Sam tosses a weapon into he trunk he says "We've got work to do" and closes the trunk. At the end of this episode, the scene is replayed with the brothers' positions reversed. Dean tosses [[the Colt]] into the trunk and says "We've got work to do." The same phrase is also used by [[Castiel]] in [[4.01 Lazarus Rising]], and Bobby in [[7.19 Of Grave Importance]].
