|outline= Sam With the [[Apocalypse]] approaching, and their options getting smaller, [[Dean decide ]] agrees to [[Sam]]'s plan to try and trap [[Lucifer]].|motw= [[Lucifer|Archangel Lucifer]] |timeline= Within six months after the events of [[5.10 Abandon All Hope...]].|location= Detroit, Michigan; <br>Lawrence, Kansas

[[Chuck]] is writing about the history of the [[Impala]], for a manuscript entitled "Swan Song.". He writes that it is the most important object in the history of the universe.

The boys share a beer in the junkyard at [[Bobby|Bobby]]'s]]. [[Dean]] tells [[Sam]] that, if it is what Sam really wants, then he will support his plan to let himself become [[Lucifer|Lucifer]]'s]] [[vessel]] in order to trap him in [[Lucifer's Cage]]. Dean asks if this is really what Sam wants and Sam tells him that since he released Lucifer, it’s it's his responsibility to lock him back up again. They prepare by killing demons and harvesting a huge amount of [[Demon Blooddemon blood]], which [[Castiel]] has said Sam will need to drink to contain Lucifer.

Omens lead Sam, Dean, Bobby and Castiel to Detroit, where Lucifer has always predicted Sam will say “Yes” "Yes" to him there. As they drive, Castiel sleeps, alerting Sam and Dean that his angelic energy is already gone and he is now almost completely human. Sam tells Dean that if the plan actually works, Sam won’t won't be returning from [[Hell ]] and he tells Dean not to find a way to bring him back. Sam makes Dean promise that when everything is over, Dean will go find [[Lisa Braeden]] and live a normal life.

They arrive in Detroit and Bobby scouts the parameterperimeter, informing them that Lucifer really is in Detroit. Sam shares emotional goodbyes with both Castiel and Bobby. Bobby tells him to not give an inch and to fight with all his strength against Lucifer whilst Castiel tells him that he will look after Dean and Bobby and that everything will be fine, although he admits he is lying. Sam drinks the demon blood, and he and Dean go to confront Lucifer.

Chuck continues telling the story of the Impala. He says the Impala has the same things most other cars have and a lot of things other cars don’t don't have (e.g. the weapons cache) but none of that is important. Chuck says the important things are the things that the Winchesters put into the car along the years; the army man Sam stuffed into the ashtray in the back, the lego Lego Dean stuffed into the heating vents and the carvings of their initials. Chuck says that Lucifer doesn’t doesn't care about the car, but he should.

Sam tells Lucifer that he wants to say “Yes” "Yes" to him in return for his family’s family's safety, but Lucifer reveals that he knows that they have the [[Horsemen's Rings]] and plan to trap him. Sam says this doesn’t doesn't change anything and says “Yes” "Yes" anyway. As Lucifer takes over Sam's body, Dean uses the rings and with an incantation opens Lucifer's Cage. Lucifer, however, is in full control of Sam, and closes the cage, taking the rings and disappearing.

Lucifer and Sam have a talk in which Lucifer tells Sam that he should embrace their union as it was always meant to be this way. He tells Sam that they’re they're two halves of the same whole, that they were literally made for each other and that the Winchesters were at best a surrogate family as Lucifer is Sam’s Sam's real family. Lucifer gathers all the remaining minions of [[Azazel]], who have been keeping watch over Sam his entire life (including a grade school teacher and Sam's prom date, Rachel Nave) and tells Sam that it’s it's time the two of them "blow off a little steam". He proceeds to slaughter these demons and asks if Sam is "having fun yet".

Later, Dean, Castiel and Bobby watch the news, as unprecedented disasters occur across the world - – the [[Apocalypse]] is beginning. Both Castiel and Bobby seem without hope. Dean calls Chuck, who tells Dean the confrontation between [[Michael ]] and Lucifer will take place at [[Stull Cemetery]] near Lawrence in Kansas, where the boys first lived. Castiel tells Dean that there’s nothing he can do and that all that Dean will see is his brother being killed by Michael to which Dean responds that he won't let Sam die alone.

In Stull Cemetery, Lucifer faces Michael, who appears using [[Adam]] as a vessel. Lucifer tries to dissuade Michael from the fight, blaming their conflict on [[God]], and suggesting they walk away. Michael counters that Lucifer is still blaming everyone but himself and that he hasn’t hasn't grown at all. Michael says he must carry out God's orders and that it's his destiny to kill Lucifer. Just then, Dean arrives in the Impala, Def Leppard's “Rock of Ages” blaring.

Dean tries to talk to Sam inside Lucifer, but Michael tells him it's not his fight anymore. Castiel and Bobby arrive and Castiel throws a Molotov Cocktail of [[Holy Oilholy oil]] on Michael, causing him to burn up and vanish temporarily. Lucifer, furious that Castiel dared to attack Michael, turns and disintegrates Castiel. Bobby shoots him, but Lucifer snaps Bobby’s Bobby's neck.

Sam tells Dean everything’s everything's going to be alright and that he has Lucifer contained for now. Sam tosses the Horsemen's Rings to the ground and recites the incantation to open Lucifer's Cage. He and Dean look at each other one last time, but as Sam goes to throw himself in, Michael reappears. Michael tries to persuade Sam to step back so he and Lucifer can have their battle, but Sam moves to jump in anyway and when Michael tries to stop him, Sam drags him into the cage too.

Dean leaves Bobby. Chuck tells us in voiceover voice over that Dean won't see him again for a very long time. Chuck says that all Dean wants to do is either find a way to rescue Sam or die, but he won’t won't do either as he made a promise to Sam that he wouldn’twouldn't.

Dean arrives at Lisa Braeden's house, distraught, but trying to hold it together. She comforts him and he mourns in her arms for what he’s he's lost.

Outside Lisa’s Lisa's house, a street light goes out. Underneath it, watching them through the window, stands Sam...

'''Chuck:''' On April 21, 1967, the 100 millionth GM vehicle rolled off the line at the plant in Janesville – a blue two-door Caprice. There was a big ceremony, speeches. The lieutenant governor even showed up. Three days later , another car rolled off that same line. No one gave two craps about her. But they should have, but they should’ve. Because because this 1967 Chevrolet Impala would turn out to be the most important car... – no, the most important object – in pretty much the whole universe. She was first owned by Sal Moriarty, an alcoholic with two ex-wives and three blocked arteries. On weekends, he'd drive around giving Bibles to the poor, "gettin' folks right for Judgment Day." That's what he said. Sam and Dean don't know any of this, but if they did, I bet they'd smile. After Sal died, she ended up at Rainbow Motors, a used-car lot in Lawrence, where a young marine bought her on impulse. That is, after a little advice from a friend. I guess that's where this story begins. And here's where it ends.

'''Sam:''' You're gonna let me say yes?<br>'''Dean:''' No. That's the thing. It's not on me to let you do anything. You're a grown – well, overgrown – man. If this is what you want, I'll back your play.<br>'''Sam:''' That's the last thing I thought you'd ever say.<br>'''Dean:''' Watching Might be. I'm not gonna lie to you, though. It goes against every fiber I got. I mean, truth is... You know, watching out for you is ... it's kinda been my job. More , you know? But more than that, it's ... it's kinda who I am. You're not a kid anymore, Sam, and I can't keep treating you like one. Maybe I got to grow up a little, too. I don't know if we got a snowball's chance. But... But I do know that if anybody can do it... it's you.<br>'''Sam:''' Thank you.

'''Dean:''' So then what am I supposed to do?<br>'''Sam:''' You go find Lisa. You pray to God she’s god she's dumb enough to take you in. You , and you – you have barbecues, and go to football games. You go live some normal , apple -pie life, Dean.

'''CastielChuck:''' I want you to understandIn between jobs, Sam and Dean would sometimes get a day – sometimes a week, if they were lucky. They'd pass the only thing you are going time lining their pockets. Sam used to see out there is Michael killing your insist on honest work, but now he hustles pool, like his brother.<br>They could go anywhere and do anything. They drove 1,000 miles for an Ozzy show, two days for a Jayhawks game. And when it was clear, they'd park her in the middle of nowhere, sit on the hood, and watch the stars... for hours... without saying a word. It never occurred to them that, sure, maybe they never really had a roof and four walls... but they were never, in fact, homeless.
