Appearances
8.02 What's Up, Tiger Mommy?
Samandiriel attends the auction held by Plutus in order to protect The Word Of God. He asks Dean, who refers to him by his vessel Alfie's name, about Castiel's whereabouts, and Dean tells him how they ended up in Purgatory. Samandiriel tells Dean that Castiel still has supporters in Heaven.
During the auction, Samandiriel bids the Mona Lisa, and then Vatican City. However, the bidding turns to souls, and he says that angels "guard the souls in Heaven, we don't horsetrade them" when Sam and Dean ask why he doesn't counter Crowley's bidding.
After the auction, Samandiriel, going by Alfie, tries to convince Linda Tran to let the angels guard her son Kevin. She refuses, as last time the angels guarding him were killed and Kevin disappeared for a year. Samandiriel accepts her choice and shows his respect for her selfless act in sacrificing her soul to save her son.

Crowley has captured Samandiriel and is torturing him for information on the prophets using an angel killing sword. Samandiriel is certain that he will be rescued, but Crowley states that Heaven is in such disorder that they probably have not noticed his absence. Samandiriel assures him that he had given him the names of all the current prophets, and that the next generation of prophets had not been created yet. Crowley leaves him tied, stating that he has "only begun to scratch the surface".
