Synopsis
Dean, Sam, and Castiel are at a gas station refueling the Impala. Sam is on the phone with Linda Tran, who tells him that she and Kevin are now on Garth's safe-houseboat and that Kevin is having difficulties translating the half of the God tablet they got back from Crowley. He tells her to call if they find anything. Dean asks Castiel if there's any angel chatter about the tablet, and Castiel tells him that he's cut himself off from angel communications because he doesn't want anything to do with heaven. Instead, he wants to be a hunter - he's even found a case in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, where a man's heart burst out of his chest and flew 10 feet into the air. Dean says he'll work the case with him as long as he stays with them and doesn't teleport around. Castiel agrees and then asks if he can ride in the front seat of the Impala. Sam and Dean say "no" at the same time, and Castiel gets in the back seat.
In Oklahoma City, they go to see Gary Freleng's body at the morgue.

Sam, who's been reading the case file, asks Castiel if he can tell that Gary was also having an affair. His friend Olivia Kopple was with him when he died, and from Olivia's statement it seems like they were meeting in the park every week and then having lunch at a nearby diner. Sam suspects that they were spending less time in the diner and more time in the motel attached to it.
