A former hunter named Martin, who has been admitted into a mental hospital in Ketchum, Oklahoma, calls Sam and Dean for help with investigating a case. The brothers get themselves admitted as patients to check out the mysterious creature that has been attacking patients and has made their deaths look like suicide. They find out that they are dealing with a Wraith, a creature that feeds on human brains and disguises itself as a human. The only way to identify a Wraith is through a mirror, which reveals its true form. As the days go by, the Winchesters find themselves hallucinating. After an attempt to kill the hospital's Chief of Medicine, whom they suspect to be the monster, Sam is locked up and sedated with a heavy dose of tranquilizers. Despite his mind being paralyzed by the tricks the Wraith plays on it, Dean is able to figure out that the Wraith must be the nurse who gave them their medical check-up at the beginning, disturbing their minds after touching them. He finds her just as she is attempting to suck Sam's brain dry. After killing her and lifting the curse, the brothers flee from the mental institution.
While investigating a homicide in Wellington, Ohio that was apparently executed by the Incredible Hulk, Sam and Dean are trapped inside TV land. They suspect the Trickster is the reason for it, and attempt to track him down. Sam suggests they ask the Trickster for help fighting the Apocalypse, and Dean reluctantly agrees. They encounter him several times, but are unable to trap him until Dean remembers a warning from Castiel about the Trickster, which leads the brothers to believe the Trickster is in fact a far more powerful creature than a simple demigod. They manage to lure him and trap him in a burning circle of holy oil. Since the Trickster is unable to escape, it confirms their suspicions that he is actually an angel. He applauds them and admits he's actually the Archangel Gabriel, who voluntarily fell from Grace several years before as he grew tired of watching his brothers fight each other. He trapped Sam and Dean because he wants them to agree to be Lucifer's and Michael's vessels, respectively, in order to end the Apocalypse. Gabriel also states that the lives of Sam and Dean mirror the lives of Lucifer and Michael, since Sam rebelled against his father while Dean remained obedient. Dean still refuses to say yes to becoming a vessel, but before they leave, he frees Gabriel from his trap and accuses him of simply being too afraid to stand up against his own family.

The boys find that the origin is a magic coin that causes a fountain to become a wishing well, being that the coin's power is drawn from the pagan goddess Tiamat. The only way to reverse the wishes is for the person who put the coin there to remove it. It turns out to be the geek and he is reluctant to do so, but after one of the wishes results in Sam's death, he removes the coin, reversing all the wishes. Sam melts the coin down. At the same time, Dean helps the kid who was bullied keep up his new image of strength to prevent bullying in the future.

He says that the people sent to Heaven are rewarded for their good deeds with a replica of their happiest memory. They also encounter Pamela, who states that being dead and in Heaven is not so bad, after all. Eventually, Zachariah finds the brothers and begins to torture Dean, saying that he is sick of being condemned by his fellow angels because he cannot handle "one little human." However, he is stopped by Joshua, who claims to be acting on orders from God. Joshua tells Dean that God will not help them. It is revealed that He is the one who put them on that airplane in "Sympathy for the Devil", brought back Castiel and now granted them salvation in Heaven. Joshua then returns them to Earth with their memories, where the brothers meet Castiel and tell him everything. Castiel curses God and gives Dean his amulet back, stating that it is useless now. As the brothers leave the motel, Sam tries to convince Dean that they can still stop the Apocalypse. Before walking out the door, Dean throws his amulet into the trash can, leaving faith at the door.

Dean enlists Castiel's help to find out what's wrong with Sam, who reveals he can't sleep or feel any emotions except for physical pain. Castiel discovers Sam's soul is missing and when he goes elsewhere to investigate, the Winchesters learn that Samuel is going to hunt down the Alpha vampire. After torturing the Alpha vampire, Crowley appears to reveal that Samuel works for him to collect alpha creatures and he is the one who brought Sam back from Hell. Crowley tells them that he calls the shots and they have no choice but to follow his orders. After the demon leaves, Sam wants to kill Samuel for betraying and lying to them but Dean lets him go. Samuel tells them that he only works to capture creatures but has no intention to harm the brothers. While the brothers have no choice but to follow Crowley's orders, Sam assures Dean that Crowley will get his just desserts when they get the chance.

The United States nuclear strategy of counterforce, intended to counter a Soviet conventional attack by targeting military facilities, is discredited following the Cuban Missile Crisis. Instead Defence Secretary McNamara adopts the doctrine of Mutually Assured Destruction , with the belief that the targeting by the superpowers of each other's cities would deter a nuclear war. Both sides step up nuclear testing and acquire more nuclear weapons, in particular submarines capable of unleashing retaliation should the opponent strike first. The Soviets choose to follow a more defensive doctrine and introduce anti-ballistic missiles, which the United States seek to counter with multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles. The arms race remains expensive, controversial and, as demonstrated in the Palomares incident, not without risk. However some small promise of arms control comes from the SALT Treaty. Interviewees include Russell E. Dougherty, William Kaufmann and Harold Brown. The pre-credits scene has McNamara explaining how MAD was the foundation for deterrence.

The wartime allies demobilise - the United States enjoys its economic strength and resurgence while Britain and the rest of Europe is exhausted. A new series of purges takes place in the Soviet Union, and is ravaged by famine. Germans are expelled from territories now given to Poland by the Soviet Union, and differences emerge over Germany's post-war rehabilitation. Stalin increases his grasp on Eastern Europe, although does not intervene on the side of the Communists in the Greek Civil War. Britain's power influence goes into decline, weakened from the war and a severe winter. Food shortages threatening stability throughout Europe. The United States begins to adopt with a more assertive foreign policy, countering Soviet influence in Turkey and Iran. Interviewees include Lord Annan, Sir Frank Roberts and Paul Nitze. The pre-credits scene features Winston Churchill's 1946 "Iron Curtain" speech in Fulton in the United States, which set the tone for confrontation.
Likewise the Soviet Union started the decade with growing openness and optimism. There was also an emerging cohort of youth with no memory of the privations and purges of the past, and who had a taste for Western music and fashion that alarmed the established order. Khrushchev sought, with limited success, to make the Soviet consumer economy more affluent, and he initiated housing construction and the poorly organised Virgin Lands Campaign. Khrushchev's erratic leadership style, his handling of the Cuban Missile Crisis and a poor 1963 harvest eventually led to his removal from power. Czechoslovakia had an even more profound transformation under Alexander Dub?ek, who introduced human rights and free market reforms. However the Prague Spring was opposed by Soviet Premier Leonid Brezhnev, and was ended abruptly in 1968. Interviewees include Miloš Forman, Vladimir Semichastny, Vasil Bi?ak and Yevgeny Yevtushenko. The pre-credits scene show Khrushchev and Czechoslovak leader Antonín Novotný demonstrating solidarity in 1964, in contrast to the Soviet Union ruling by brute force four years later.

In Alliance, Nebraska, people are being killed by practical joke devices such as itching powder and joybuzzers. On top of that, a very odd-looking Tooth Fairy extracts a man's teeth. It turns out that an eleven-year-old boy named Jesse is the reason for all of this. Everything he believes becomes reality. After searching his birth records, Sam and Dean find out that the boy was adopted, so they visit his biological mother, who lives across the state, in Elk Creek. She tells the brothers that she was impregnated by a demon possessing her and gave up her child for adoption after giving birth to him. Castiel informs the Winchesters that Jesse is an Antichrist, a being half human, half demon, imbued with essentially unlimited powers. Therefore, an Antichrist would be Lucifer's special weapon in the war against Heaven and, as a serious threat, needs to be eliminated. However, Sam and Dean believe that Jesse would not turn evil if he is taken somewhere safe. When they try to convince Jesse to come with them, the demon which conceived him interferes and pins them to the wall. It is again possessing Jesse's biological mother. After listening to the demon, Jesse renders it unable to speak in order to hear what Sam has to say. Sam tells Jesse that he has a choice and that it will haunt him forever if he makes the wrong decision. After that, Jesse exorcises the demon from his mother. Pretending he wants to say goodbye to his adoptive parents, he goes upstairs and vanishes into thin air, protected by his powers, which makes it impossible to track him down.

Sam, Dean, Bobby and Castiel track Eve to the small town of Grants Pass, Oregon. They discover a bar full of dead people, where Eve changed all of the patrons into vampire/wraith/shapeshifter hybrids, which Dean names "Jefferson Starships". Police come and arrest everyone but Dean, who follows them to the police station. Sam notices that they are also hybrids and kill all but one of them. Castiel interrogates the hybrid and finds out Eve is at a diner. In the diner, where everyone else is a hybrid, Eve tells Sam and Dean that Crowley is still alive and is after the power of the souls, not the purgatory and is also torturing her children. She takes the form of Mary to show them what is mother's love. Her plan is to ruin Crowley's plans by sending souls to Purgatory instead of Hell . Dean refuses to deal, and Eve tries to turn him, but he drank whiskey mixed with phoenix ashes earlier, which poisons her. Castiel kills the hybrids and spirits the men away. Sam, Dean and Bobby argue because they are suspicious of Castiel, thinking he let Crowley live. Crowley meets with Cas at the diner, saying he is tired of cleaning up his messes.

Sam and Dean are cornered by demons, but saved at the last minute by Rob and his townspeople, who are aware of the Apocalypse and have been training to fight and kill demons. The small town has become very religious, and the brothers meet Pastor Gideon, who introduces them to his daughter Leah. She has been receiving visions from angels and guiding the townspeople to demons, whom the townspeople always seem to defeat and exorcise. Eventually Leah begins telling the locals that they are "Chosen" to win the Apocalypse and see their dead loved ones again in a Paradise on Earth, but to do so must get rid of "sinners" among them whose names the angels are giving to her. The brothers learn that Leah has been replaced by the Whore of Babylon, a creature from Hell that emerges during the Apocalypse and tries to condemn as many people as possible to eternal punishment in Hell by tricking them into committing Deadly Sins. The Whore had only been sending locals on demon hunting trips to earn their trust, and the exorcisms are fake. Her true agenda is to cause the townspeople to kill as many of each other as she can, and damn their souls to Hell. She can only be killed with a cypress wooden stake from a tree in Babylon and by the hand of a true servant of Heaven. The Pastor has become concerned by Leah's increasingly ruthless behavior, and while walking outside is confronted by Castiel who informs him of the truth. Reuniting with Sam and Dean, the Pastor is informed that Leah is not his real daughter but the creature that killed her. The demonic creature has to be killed and they point out that the Pastor is a true servant of Heaven. They halt the Whore just before she and her "Chosen" can burn the "sinner" townspeople to death. The Pastor is knocked out and the Whore begins battling Dean, but he manages to stake her, proving to a surprised Sam that he is a true servant of Heaven. Sam asks him if he is going to do something stupid like saying "yes" to the angel Michael. In the end, Dean leaves Sam to drive and see Lisa and tells her that, in the next few days, she's going to see "trippy" things on TV, but she need not worry because he is going to make arrangements to protect her and her son, Ben. He also confesses that when he dreams of having a happy family it is with her and Ben. Lisa is terrified and asks Dean to stay, have a beer and talk for a while, but Dean declines and leaves.

Gorbachev makes clear Eastern European countries were free to determine their own destinies. In Poland Solidarity enters into negotiations with the Government, and would end up winning a landslide election. In Hungary the Government chooses to symbolically reinter Imre Nagy, and open its frontier with Austria, which is then crossed by increasing numbers of holidaying East Germans. Erich Honecker refuses to implement reforms, despite subtle pressure from Gorbachev and growing protests across East Germany. The bloody end to dissent in China is never far from the minds of protesters. Just as protests reach a peak, Soviet forces in East Germany are stood down, and Honecker is replaced by an unimpressive Egon Krenz. As a concession travel restrictions are lifted but the new regulations are miscommunicated, and the Berlin Wall is suddenly and irrevocably breached by masses of East Germans. In the momentum, the fate of communism in East Germany is sealed. Interviewees include Miklós Németh, Egon Krenz and George H. W. Bush. The pre-credits scene includes Gorbachev explaining that by 1989, force alone could not secure the world.

Dean begins to think the only way to stop Lucifer is to say yes to Michael, but the angels decide they don't need him anymore. Instead, Zachariah uses Dean and Sam's half-brother, Adam, to serve as Michael's vessel as he is related to the Winchesters by blood. Castiel rescues Adam as he revives and brings him to see his brothers and Bobby. But Adam has no problem being Michael's vessel as the angels promised to reunite him with his deceased mother and Sam tries to talk him out of it. Since Dean still has the intention to accept the archangel, Castiel and Sam lock him in a cell but Dean tricks Castiel into releasing him and escapes. Adam is convinced by Zachariah to act his part and he leaves voluntarily. Dean is chased down by Castiel and enraged at his betrayal and willingness to give in so easily, the angel drags Dean into an alleyway before subjecting him to a brutal beating that leaves Dean with several injuries. When Dean tells him to do it, Castiel knocks him unconscious and takes him back to Bobby's house. Upon going with Zachariah, Adam discovers that the angels have fooled him into tricking Dean to become Michael's vessel. Sam trusts Dean not to give himself up to the angels and releases him to help rescue Adam. Castiel goes inside the warehouse and confronts a group of angels, using incantations on his body to banish himself and the angels away while Dean and Sam enter. They attempt to take Adam with them but are confronted by Zachariah. The angel tortures both Sam and Adam to force Dean to say yes. Dean relents and tells Zachariah to summon Michael. However, Dean reveals he's made a few conditions in order to have Michael possess him, with the first being Zachariah will be killed by Michael. To be sure, Dean surprises and kills Zachariah himself. As Michael descends, the three brothers flee but Adam is trapped inside. Dean is unable to go back in to save Adam due to the searing heat and light, and when he enters the room moments later, the room holding Adam has disappeared. Later, Dean apologizes to Sam for his decision and tells his brother they will take the fight to them, whether they be angels or Lucifer.
Sam and Dean are reunited and on the hunt again. They reach Canton, Ohio and investigate a string of very strange murders. A man who has found James Dean's car "Little Bastard" is found dead as if he has been involved in a major car crash. Another man is murdered by someone who looks just like Abraham Lincoln. Suspecting that the murders are the work of famous ghosts, the boys do research at the local wax museum where Sam is attacked by what seems to be the ghost of Mahatma Gandhi. Shortly afterward, two girls report to the police that their friend was kidnapped by Paris Hilton, which leaves the brothers speechless. After finding peculiar seeds in the victims' stomachs, they break into the museum's construction area where they do find Paris Hilton — who is in fact a Leshii, a pagan god, in disguise, trying to settle down after its old home, a deep forest in Eastern Europe, has been cut down. By touching their possessions, the god can turn itself into famous people and kill their fans in order to feed on their blood. While fighting the Leshi, Dean references both Padalecki's and Hilton's roles in House of Wax, saying he has never seen it; The fight scene, which is in a wax museum, also makes a minor reference to the film. In the end, Sam kills "Paris Hilton" with an iron axe. Before leaving town, Dean tells Sam that starting the Apocalypse isn't his fault alone as he himself had broken the first seal and that they shouldn't think about the whole vessel thing too much but instead fight together.
Dean and Sam finally hear from Castiel again, but he cannot go to them because his "batteries" are drained and he has no more power; he's now practically human. Dean and Sam go after Pestilence, and nearly die from a hailstorm of diseases. Castiel shows up and cuts off the Horseman's finger, using the last of his angelic strength to resist Pestilence's plagues. He takes the ring, but not before Pestilence tells them that "it's too late". Upon rejoining with Bobby, the brothers learn how Bobby "pawned" his soul to Crowley in exchange for the location of the fourth, final, and most powerful of the Four Horsemen, Death. Crowley explains that Bobby's soul is his insurance, and that he won't give it back until everything has cooled down. It turns out the deal includes a bonus; Bobby can walk again. The group splits up; Sam, along with Castiel and Bobby, head out in order to find and contain the Croatoan virus . On the way, Castiel hears about Sam's plan concerning Lucifer and surprisingly encourages him. However, he warns Sam that Michael has already found a human vessel: Adam. The battle between Michael and Lucifer will commence if Sam isn't able to resist possession. At the shipping warehouse, the three are able to contain the virus and shoot those who have been infected by it. Meanwhile, Dean goes with Crowley to find Death and get the last ring. They locate Death in Chicago, which according to Bobby is about to be wiped out by the storm of the millennium. As the rain starts, Death and Dean meet in a pizza parlor, littered with the bodies of customers and staff. Death explains that he is tied to Lucifer through a spell. This is the only reason he didn't try to find Dean, but has instead had to wait for him. He offers to give him his ring, but there is one condition; agree to Sam saying yes to Lucifer so they can lure him into the trap. He'll also spare Chicago. Dean agrees, receiving the ring and instructions on how to use all four of them to trap Lucifer. Upon returning, he tells Bobby he lied to Death's face, but Bobby says that Death is Death, and asks Dean if he's more afraid to lose, or to lose his brother.

Dean and Bobby lock Sam in Bobby’s panic room so he can detox from the demon blood. However, as Bobby sees more seals are being broken, he tells Dean they should let Sam out to help them fight the impending Apocalypse. Dean disagrees and goes to Castiel for help. Dean confronts Castiel, who says he should serve God in order to save Sam. Dean accepts. Sam and Dean have a blowout confrontation in which Sam chooses Ruby over his own brother.

When couples start eating each other to death and killing each other, the brothers investigate and find angelic marks on the victims' hearts. They call Castiel, who suspects a rogue Cupid to be responsible for the deaths. Castiel summons the Cupid and asks him about the strange incidents, but the angel of love says he is only acting on higher orders, but that killings are not his work. After examining another victim's body, Sam follows a suspicious man and confronts him. Sam fights him and grazes him with Ruby's knife, which reveals that he is a demon. The demon flees and leaves his briefcase behind, and Sam finds his addiction to demon blood return. Soon, people start dying from binge eating or alcohol poisoning, and Castiel develops a weird craving for red meat, which leads them to believe that one of the Four Horsemen, Famine, who causes people to give in to their desires, is behind the deaths. They open the briefcase, which contains a human soul of a person. Castiel states that Famine harvests the souls of the people he killed and consumes them. Later, Dean and Castiel set out to face Famine and cut off the finger on which he wears the ring containing his power. They lock up Sam in order to prevent him from giving into his cravings and follow the demons who harvested a soul for Famine to devour. Meanwhile, demons enter the room where Sam is chained up. Sam breaks free, attacks the demons and satisfies his thirst. When Dean and Castiel arrive at the diner in which they suspect Famine to dwell, Castiel enters the building in order to attack Famine, but is held up by his desire for red meat. Dean walks in and is assaulted by the demons guarding Famine. Famine then states that Dean is not responding to his curse because he is empty inside and there is nothing that can satisfy his hunger. When Sam suddenly appears, Famine offers him the demons guarding himself, but Sam refuses. He exorcizes them, and Famine devours their essences. Sam tries to use his powers on the Horseman, but Famine states that Sam's abilities will not work on him. Instead of killing the Horseman himself, Sam uses his powers to destroy the demons Famine had just swallowed, effectively killing Famine. In the end, Dean and Castiel lock Sam in Bobby's panic room in order to detox the demon blood out of his system. When Dean cannot bear to listen to Sam's screams anymore, he walks outside and calls to God for help.

Following the Chinese Revolution Mao Zedong aligns China firmly with the Soviet Union. China becomes the recipient of Soviet aid, supports Communist movements worldwide and confronts the United States in Korea and in the Taiwan straits. Domestically China experienced upheaval and disaster with the post-revolution land reforms, the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. A range of factors, including Khrushchev's apparent acceptance of co-existence with the capitalist West and his refusal to share Soviet nuclear technology with China, led to the Sino-Soviet split and eventual conflict. Both sides become deeply distrustful of the other, particularly after China develops nuclear weapons. Sensing an opportunity to contain the Soviet Union, in 1972 the United States suddenly and unexpectedly moves to reestablish ties with China. Interviewees include Wu Ningkun, Marshall Green, Liu Binyan, Stepan Chervonenko and Henry Kissinger. The pre-credits scene shows Nixon's visit to China, only six years after the Cultural Revolution.
Under détente the superpowers continued their rivalry, but carefully avoided direct conflict by courting allies in the developing world. Israel moved closer to the United States after the Six Day War, while Egypt erratically maintained its ties with the USSR. During the subsequent Yom Kippur War the United States reluctantly supplied aid to Israel, but when it became apparent the Egyptian Army was on the verge of destruction the Soviet Union threatened to intervene. The United States held its ground, brought the two warring sides to the negotiating table, and demonstrated it was the preeminent power in the Middle East. In Angola the Cuban-backed People's Movement for the Liberation of Angola manages to retain power, staving off attacks from the Central Intelligence Agency-backed National Liberation Front of Angola , the South African-backed National Union for the Total Independence of Angola and foreign mercenaries. Cuba also intervenes in the Ogaden War, defending Marxist Ethiopia from Somalia. Interviewees include Saad El Shazly, Abba Eban, Simcha Dinitz, Holden Roberto, Pik Botha and Jimmy Carter. The pre-credits scene shows a group of Africans watching a film possibly about Communism, with the narrator noting American fears of Soviet expansionism in the post-colonial world.

Castiel finds Crowley, and with Jo's help the brothers enter his house. To their surprise Crowley shoots his henchmen and gives them the Colt, stating that he wants Lucifer dead because he believes that eventually Lucifer will kill all demons after he destroys humanity. Back at Bobby's place, Bobby photographs himself, Sam, Dean, Ellen, Jo and Castiel, as he believes that this might be their last night on Earth. When the team arrives in Missouri, Castiel sees Reapers everywhere. He tries to find out why they are there and is subsequently captured by Lucifer, who tries to convince Castiel to join him, while showing that his own temporary vessel Nick, overpowered by Lucifer's presence inside him, is dying. Meg arrives and sends hellhounds after the brothers and the Harvelles, and while trying to help Dean, Jo is fatally wounded. While taking shelter in a hardware store, Dean calls Bobby, who tells him the Reapers are in town because they are waiting for their boss to show: Death, one of the Four Horsemen. Realizing she won't recover from her wound, Jo suggests they build a bomb to blow up the hellhounds, using her as bait to lure the hellhounds inside. Ellen volunteers to stay behind, too, so she can let the hellhounds in and set off the bomb while Dean and Sam escape. After a tearful goodbye with Dean, Jo dies in Ellen's arms, who then blows up the building, killing herself and the hellhounds. The brothers find Lucifer in the middle of summoning Death. Dean shoots Lucifer point blank with the Colt. However, he heals instantly and reveals that there are only five beings the Colt can't kill — and he happens to be one of them. Lucifer sacrifices a dozen demons to summon Death, stating that "they're just demons". Meanwhile, Castiel manages to free himself from his trap and takes the brothers to Bobby's. There, Bobby throws the picture showing them all into the fire, and, together with the brothers, grieves silently over the deaths of Jo and Ellen.

Sam gets a mysterious text message directing him to the town of Bristol, Rhode Island where three women have gone missing in the past week. Upon arriving in the town, they discover that Samuel and Sam had been there before, working on a hunt where men had gone missing. However, as time progresses in the town, Sam's memories of his prior visit begin to surface, such as beating a suspicious police officer and having sex with various witnesses . Sam is even arrested by the officer who he had beaten, and then confronted with the local sheriff's wife, Brenna Dobbs. Sam professes that he has no recollection of what happened, and Brenna frees him from jail. As the investigation continues, Sam realizes that he and Samuel had originally hunted an Arachne in the town, and Sam used Sheriff Dobbs as bait to lure in the creature. Upon finding Dobbs and the other abducted men, Sam successfully killed the Arachne and proceeded to kill the abducted men, as he believed that the men were poisoned and beyond help. It is later shown that the Arachne had not captured the men to feed, but to propagate the species, turning Dobbs and the other victims from a year ago into Arachnes as well, all of whom survived. Dobbs reveals himself by baiting Sam and Dean, and trapping them in webbing. While explaining what happened to him, and that the women he kidnapped have all been turned into Arachnes and scattered everywhere, Dean uses a shard of glass to cut the webbing and attack Dobbs. Brenna frees Sam, who decapitates Dobbs. Sam then tries to apologize to Brenna, but she does not wait to hear him. In the end Sam falls down in his room apparently , he has scratched his wall .

After Death placed Sam's damaged soul from Hell into Sam's body, Sam awakens back to his normal state only to have no stable memory of when he was around with no soul. Dean and Sam investigate some disappearances of girls who are virgins in Portland, Oregon only to find that dragons are behind the kidnappings. Bobby sends Dean to Dr. Visyak, a professor in medieval mythology who has had experience in fighting dragons. She tells Dean that in order to kill the dragons, he needs a blade that has been forged in dragon's blood. However, they can use a powerful dragon-killing sword, one of which she has in her basement. Meanwhile Sam is researching where the dragon's hideout is and finds out they are staying in the underground sewers. Sam then begs for Castiel to be in his presence at which point Castiel shows up and tells Sam everything that has happened while he was soulless. Sam and Dean then go into the sewers and find virgin girls locked in a cage. As Sam and Dean are attempting to unlock the cage, they are interrupted by two dragons and have a fight. They manage to kill one of the dragons while the other one escapes. They end up back at Bobby's and Sam apologizes to Dean for everything he has done, saying that Castiel told him everything. Bobby has learned the dragons are trying to open Purgatory to let something "big" walk the planet named the "Mother of All" and that they are reading an "instruction manual" on how to open it. Meanwhile the dragons still have one of the virgins; they work an incantation and shove her into a fiery pit. The virgin then flies out of the pit possessed by the "Mother of All".

After some research, Sam discovers Cal Garrigan is the common denominator between the killings. They interview Cal and meet his girlfriend Mandy, Mandy's son Aiden and their dog Lucky. The brothers spy on Cal overnight, but see nothing; after they leave, Cal is killed by Lucky. Sam sees the dog Lucky transform into a man and follows him out of the house. There is a chase and Lucky is hit by a van. It turns out the killers are not werewolves but skin-walkers. Sam and Dean trap Lucky at an animal hospital and convince him that it would be better to give up his pack than to risk the family he loves. Lucky tells the two that the skin-walkers plan to infiltrate families as pet dogs and upon given a signal, turn the families into skin-walkers. Dean decides to eliminate the leader of the pack and there is a shootout. All the skin-walker pack except Lucky are killed, but he escapes, wounded. Lucky then goes back to Mandy to thank her for her kindness, but she tells him to leave and never come back.

The brothers turn to Bobby for help, but he tells them not to worry about it and to leave town. Suspicious, Dean investigates further and comes face to face with Bobby's dead wife, who seems to have no memory of what has happened to her. Soon the zombies start to become evil one by one, killing and eating their loved ones. The brothers urge Bobby to kill his "wife" before she does the same. Bobby refuses because he wants to spend a few happy hours with his resurrected wife and says that as soon as she turns evil he will take care of it. Shortly after, his wife shows signs of becoming a flesh-eating zombie. Weakened by the disease, she lies down to rest and tells Bobby that she actually remembers her demonic possession and death. She also delivers a message from Death. After killing her, Bobby helps the brothers fight off the zombies. They succeed and rid the town of the plague.

Bobby summons Crowley to have him return his soul as part of the deal to end the Apocalypse. However, Crowley reneges on the deal and holds it for a ten-year period. Bobby begins to research Crowley's origins and even captures and tortures a Crossroads demon to find Crowley's real name. Throughout the weekend, Bobby provides support for the Winchester brothers and the rest of the hunters, helps fellow hunter Rufus bury a Japanese okami demon and contends with an FBI agent trying to find Rufus. Dean tells Bobby about Sam's changes and his problems, but Bobby is distracted by other calls. When Dean scolds Bobby for being selfish and cold for not listening, Bobby snaps and reprimands both brothers, reminding them he also has his own problems and he can't always be there for them. Bobby learns from the Crossroads demon that Crowley's real name is Fergus Macleod and he is now the King of Hell. He then calls up Crowley's long deceased son Gavin for information and summons Crowley to threaten him to return his soul. Crowley refuses until Gavin himself tells his father that he told Bobby everything he could know about him. Crowley is shaken but remains unmoved until Dean and Sam call to reveal that they are at his grave in Scotland, ready to burn his bones. Crowley reluctantly returns Bobby's soul and destroys the contract, and goes to Scotland to pick up his remains. Later, Bobby thanks the brothers for helping him with this, and once again returns to his usual work.

Carter's ambitious proposals for total multilateral nuclear disarmament are rejected by Brezhnev; his championing of human rights does not win favour either. The Helsinki Accords encourage writers to establish Charter 77 in Czechoslovakia. The visit of Pope John Paul II revitalises Polish nationalism, while in the Soviet Union high profile dissidents and refuseniks gains popular attention. The Soviets continue a conventional arms race, draining resources from a demoralised consumer economy. SALT II is signed, to the consternation of many Europeans because of the Treaty's "double track" provisions concerning the deployment of new SS-20 and Pershing II missiles. Carter's failure to exercise American resolve and strength over the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, the Iran hostage crisis and an oil shock ultimately costs him the 1980 elections, and the United States decisively swings to a more confrontational foreign policy under Ronald Reagan. Breznhev successfully leans on Polish leader Wojciech Jaruzelski to crack down on the Solidarity movement. Interviewees include Jeane Kirkpatrick, Lech Walesa, Václav Havel and Helmut Schmidt. The pre-credits scene shows the United States basking in confidence during its bicentennial, with the narrator noting détente would shortly be over.

Sam and Dean investigate a strange case in Paterson, New Jersey where a janitor was killed and no one was around. Another murder takes place in another town, and they suspect a ghost controlled a mannequin to kill them. While investigating, Dean receives a call from Ben telling him Lisa is acting strange and he goes to see what is going on. Sam then discovers that both victims used to work together in a factory, and the janitor resigned after the strange death of a female worker called Rose. After a talk with her sister, Sam saves another guy that worked in the factory from getting killed and explained to him that he and a group of guys accidentally killed her because of a cruel joke they played on her. Sam then leaves and burns the body, thinking the case is solved, although the worker he just saved is killed that same night. After talking to Lisa, Dean realizes that Lisa has been trying to forget him but he keeps appearing in her life and that she still has feelings for him. Dean then talks to Ben who clearly wants Dean back in their lives. Sam then returns to Isabella, Rose's sister, looking for anything she could still be attached to and discovers Rose gave her a kidney when they were younger so if they cut the kidney out Isabella would die. Dean comes back to see Isabella, but Rose possesses the Impala and tries to kill Dean, who manages to escape, resulting in the Impala crashing and both sisters finally dying. After that, the brothers have a talk about how they got an innocent girl killed to save those guys and if they are actually doing the right thing.
Sam and Dean try to keep themselves busy by following up a new case in Chester, Pennsylvania where people are dying from bizarre and creative deaths . They determine there are no spirits or monsters involved, and remain at a loss. Inexplicably, Ellen is Bobby's wife. She traces the family trees of the victims, discovering their ancestors all immigrated to the United States in 1912 on the Titanic, a ship that none of them have ever heard of, which narrowly missed an iceberg on its maiden voyage. Sam finds an old photo and notices the first officer of the ship is none other than Balthazar. When summoned, Balthazar reveals he hated the movie, so he went back in time and saved the ship, which created a chain of reactions that led to Ellen being alive and no one knowing the uninteresting history of the Titanic. The bizarre deaths are being caused by one of the Fates sisters of Greek Mythology, Atropos. Atropos attempts to kill Sam and Dean out of resentment of them escaping death and stopping the Apocalypse, though Castiel saves them. Castiel confronts Atropos and discovers how angry she is that no one takes her seriously anymore and that when she went to Heaven, everyone ignored her because of her failure to kill the 50,000 descendants from the Titanic. Atropos warns him that killing her will cause her sisters to kill them, Sam and Dean included. She tells Castiel that saving the 50,000 souls won't help him when he needs them in his battle against Heaven. She convinces Castiel to restore the timeline, but he ensures the brothers still know about the change.

Nixon builds closer relations with China and the USSR, hoping to leverage an honourable US exit from Indochina. The Soviet Union is fearful of a US-Chinese alliance, but summits between Nixon and Brezhnev lead to a relaxation of tensions and concrete arms control agreements. Willy Brandt's Ostpolitik strategy also normalises West German relations with East Germany, the USSR and Poland. Although deeply unpopular domestically, US bombing of Cambodia and Hanoi succeeds in bringing North Vietnam to the negotiating table, leading to the Paris Peace Accords in 1972. Deeply resented by South Vietnam, the Accords ultimately fail to prevent Saigon's fall three years later. In 1975 reapproachment continued with the Helsinki Accords, which enshrined human rights and territorial integrity, and the symbolic Apollo–Soyuz Test Project. Interviewees include Melvin Laird, Valeri Kubasov, Winston Lord, John Ehrlichman and Gerald Ford. The pre-credits scene shows a Soviet cartoon demonstrating the futility of the arms race.

The apocalypse is coming, and Sam and Dean prepare for the fight in very different ways. After leaving Dean, Sam joins Ruby on a final run to kill Lilith. They kidnap Lilith's personal chef who disguises itself as a nurse, stealing newborn babies for Lilith to devour, to question her. Meanwhile, Dean is kidnapped by the angels and brought to a room without any exit where Zachariah explains to him that the angels are not trying to stop the final seal from being broken—in fact, they want to start the Apocalypse, for it will cleanse the earth and bring Paradise. So Dean's task is not stopping the Apocalypse from starting, but ending it once it has. Dean is furious at Castiel for deceiving him, and Castiel refuses to help at first but changes his mind and helps Dean escape, banishing Zachariah with a blood sigil. The two get Sam's location from Chuck Shirley and Castiel transports Dean there with Ruby's Knife while he stays behind to confront Chuck's Archangel. At Saint Mary's Convent, Sam, high on demon blood, confronts Lilith who is practically powerless against him. Dean tries to reach Sam in time to stop him, but Ruby blocks him. Goaded by Lilith and Ruby, Sam kills Lilith with his powers, but killing Lilith breaks the final seal. Ruby reveals that she has been deceiving Sam all along to lead him to this moment, having worked for Lucifer all along. Ruby's allegiance was so secret that only Lilith knew the truth. Sam is unable to kill her due to his powers being exhausted by killing Lilith, but Dean breaks in and with Sam holding her in place, Dean stabs Ruby with her own knife, killing her. However, it's too late and Lucifer's Cage opens and he begins to emerge.

Chuck begins to narrate the life and times of the Impala and the boys' life inside of it. Chuck reveals their time spent in the Impala and how they made it their home throughout the years before and after they began hunting. Remembering a comment made by Lucifer in the future, Dean realizes that the fallen angel is in Detroit. Sam and Dean confront Lucifer, who knows of their plan to use the Horsemen's rings to trap him back in his cage. Despite this, Sam offers himself as a vessel, hoping that he can overcome Lucifer's control and throw himself into the prison. Lucifer is too strong, and Sam disappears in his body. As Lucifer tries to make Sam happy by killing the demons sent by Azazel to manipulate him during his childhood, Dean learns from Chuck the time and location of the final battle between Michael and Lucifer. The following day at the battleground—Stull Cemetery in Stull, KS — Lucifer tries to talk Michael out of fighting, but he refuses. However, Castiel interrupts the fight by banishing Michael with holy fire. An angry Lucifer kills Castiel, and then snaps Bobby's neck when he shoots him. He then starts brutally beating Dean, but stops when he notices an old army man of Sam's inside the Impala revealed earlier during Chuck's narration. Sam remembers his life growing up with Dean, and manages to take control of his body. He uses the rings to reopen the door to the cage, and prepares to jump inside. Michael returns and tries to stop him, but he too is pulled into the pit while grappling with Sam. Castiel, resurrected again as an angel, heals Dean and brings Bobby back to life. He returns to Heaven, hoping to bring order now that Michael is gone. As Dean attempts to move on, he seems to turn his back on hunting and returns to Lisa. Chuck smiles after finishing his narration of the story, and vanishes into thin air. Later that night, a streetlight flickers out and Sam is revealed outside Lisa's home, looking in the window at the "family" eating dinner together...
Sam and Dean end up in a seemingly one-star motel at the side of the road in Muncie, Indiana, but it turns out to be a four-star hotel with staff who are a little too friendly for the brothers' liking. They soon discover strange things happen at the hotel and guests are disappearing one at a time. They are soon trapped by the staff, who turn out to be a group of pagan gods, including Kali, Ganesh, Mercury, Zao Shen, Baron Samedi, Odin, and Baldur, and who want to use them as bargaining chips to stop the Apocalypse. Dean and Sam are soon joined by Gabriel under his Loki persona, who is willing to help them out. While he distracts Kali, Dean and Sam try to free the other trapped guests, however Kali is on to Gabriel and steals his sword and kills him. The brothers make a deal; release the guests and they will help the gods kill Lucifer. The gods reluctantly agree and Dean leads the hostages outside and stumbles upon a very much alive Gabriel, who explains the sword was a fake. He tells Dean he can't kill Lucifer because he's his brother, and Dean goes back inside the hotel. Lucifer is summoned by Mercury. He arrives and kills Mercury, and all of the other gods save for Kali. Gabriel shows up to help the brothers and sends them away. As he faces Lucifer for the first time in centuries, Gabriel tells him he's not loyal to him or Michael, but to humans, because despite their flaws, they're always willing to try harder and forgive. As Gabriel makes his move, Lucifer is onto him and kills him. Outside, Dean and Sam watch a movie Gabriel gave to them, in which the archangel explains to them that they can't kill Lucifer, but they can trap him back in Hell. All they need are the four rings that belong to the Horsemen to do this. As Dean and Sam set out to find them, Pestilence is revealed to be on Earth.
The fallen angel Anna has escaped from her prison in Heaven and is planning on killing Sam in order to prevent the Apocalypse. She calls Sam and Dean and asks them to meet her, but instead of the brothers encounter Castiel, who doesn't believe she has escaped but suspects there is something she is not telling them. Anna seems very evasive and disappears without revealing much of her plans. Later, Castiel meets up with the Winchesters and tells them that Anna has traveled back in time to 1978 to stop Mary and John Winchester from conceiving Sam. The three also travel to the past, which weakens Castiel considerably. When knocking at their parents' door, Mary recognizes Dean from his earlier visit and tells them to leave immediately, suspecting something bad is bound to happen. John, however, is thrilled to meet "relatives" from Mary's side of the family and invites them in. Anna poses as John's employer and calls him at home, telling him to come to the garage he works at. After arriving there, he is attacked by Anna. The brothers and Mary come to rescue him, and Sam is able to drive Anna out of the building by using a magical sigil. They flee to a shelter, where Dean has a talk with Mary, in which he reveals that he and Sam are her sons and that she has to leave John in order to prevent her sons from being born. However, she reveals that she is already pregnant. Suddenly, Anna and an earlier Uriel rush into the house, attacking the Winchesters which allows Anna to kill Sam. Just as Anna is about to kill Mary, the Archangel Michael, having possessed John's body, enters the room and burns Anna to death. He reveals that Cain and Abel are the brothers' ancestors and that their destiny as Michael and Lucifer's true vessels has been set since those ancient times. He then revives Sam, erases Mary and John's memory, and sends the brothers back to their time.

Dean meets with and makes a deal with Death: if Dean will take Death's place for an entire day, Death will regain Sam's soul and to 'fix' the tortured parts. Dean tells Bobby and Sam of the plan, which Sam strongly disagrees with, but Dean goes ahead anyway. Dean is accompanied by Tessa to reap various people. Eventually, however, Dean has to reap a 12-year old girl with a heart condition, which he refuses, and the girl begins to make a miraculous recovery. However, due to the change in the 'natural order', others die instead. Failing in the deal, Dean reaps the girl, admitting that though the natural order sucks, it must be adhered to. While Dean is acting as Death, Sam summons the angel Balthazar to learn how to prevent his soul from returning to his body. Balthazar admits that there is a spell, but it requires the "blood of the father" - patricide. Since Sam's father had passed on years ago, a surrogate - Bobby - would be necessary. Sam then attempts to chase down Bobby, who catches on to Sam's attempt to kill him and tries to stop him. Eventually, Sam gains the upper hand, and prepares to kill Bobby, only to be stopped and knocked out by Dean. Unsure of what to do about Sam, Dean is surprised by Death, who has come to reclaim his ring. Dean realizes that Death's game was rigged, and Death brushes off the accusation, revealing that he will still retrieve Sam's soul. Death also hints to Dean that there is some important realization about human souls that he must discover. Death then appears to Sam, soul in tow, and instructs Sam not to scratch at the wall he built around the Hell memories. Death then pushes the soul into a screaming and pained Sam.

By 1947, the United States placed as a high priority the revival of the German economy, an approach opposed by the Soviet Union. After the introduction of a Deutsche Mark the Soviet Union began to allow increasingly stringent checks on passenger and cargo flows travelling to the French, British and American sectors of Berlin, located in the heart of East Germany. This ultimately led to a blockade on all rail and road transport linking West Berlin, but an extensive airlift operation allowed the city to survive. The Communists were however successful in staging a putsch in the Berlin municipal government, eventually leading to the divisions of both Berlin and Germany. Interviewees include Gail Halvorsen, Sir Freddie Laker and Clark Clifford. The pre-credits scene shows the Berlin airlift in operation.

The Winchester brothers investigate a series of disappearances in the town of Elwood, Indiana resembling alien abductions. They question the first victim's father, Brennan, a watchmaker who is adamant that his son will never return. Dean is apparently abducted; Sam goes to a UFO gathering to learn more about the abductions. Dean is sent back hours later and is annoyed to find Sam spending the night with a groupie from the gathering instead of searching for him. Continuing their research, Dean begins seeing a strange man only he can see and encounters a Tinkerbell-like fairy radiating an energy sphere. Dean tries to convince Sam of the bizarre events but Sam remains skeptical. Dean checks out Brennan's shop, only to find elves working inside. Sam asks Brennan for the truth and is told that he summoned a leprechaun two months ago. The leprechaun makes him a deal to have his elves build watches and save his shop and reputation, but will take his first-born in exchange. Dean is followed by the strange man and ambushes him, only to mistakenly attack another man and is arrested for assault. Sam and Brennan attempt to undo the spell but Brennan is killed by the leprechaun, who turns out to be a UFO enthusiast seen throughout the episode. He used the faked UFO sightings as cover up for the leprechauns' activities. The leprechaun senses the lack of a soul in Sam and makes an offer to get it back for him, but Sam declines and attacks him. Finally, Sam empties a rock salt shotgun shell onto the floor which forces the leprechaun to count each grain, and reads the spell to send all of them back to where they came from. Later, Dean asks Sam why he did not take the leprechaun's deal, and Sam replies that deals are never a good thing.

The three set out to find Anna but once they do, Alastair attacks them and Ruby escapes with the girl. Believing they were set up, Dean lashes out at Sam for trusting Ruby, so Sam tells him what happened during the months Dean was in Hell and how Ruby saved his life. He also reveals they had sex.

Gary, a teenage nerd who resides in Housatonic, Massachusetts , meets Dean and Sam and conjures up a body-switching spell, exchanging bodies with Sam. Thrilled with his new looks, Gary takes advantage of his new appearance by hitting on women and drinking alcohol. He meets up with Dean, who at first does not realize Sam is not the real Sam. The two start working on a case and kill a ghost together, although "Sam" seems to try to take a chance to kill Dean, unknowingly to Dean. Meanwhile, Sam is stuck in Gary's body and has to deal with his strict parents and high school. He finds out that Gary owns a book with satanic symbols all over it and sets off for his locker at high school. After he has retrieved the book, he is shot by Gary's friend Trevor with a tranquilizer gun. He and another friend of Gary's, Nora, take him to a basement and reveal that they have made a pact with a demon, who offered them everything they wanted in exchange for Sam and Dean. Trevor conjures the demon, who possesses Nora and kills Trevor, whose demands irritate the demon. As the demon tastes Trevor's innards it declares they "taste like moron". The demon goes after Gary and tries to persuade him to meet Lucifer and "answer one little question" with yes, which would let the Devil into his true vessel. Gary refuses and, with Dean's help, exorcizes the demon. In the end, Gary reverses the spell and the boys take him home. Before leaving, Sam tells Gary that he should be glad to have a normal life and a family, but when he and Dean get into the car, he states that Gary's life "sucked ass", yet Dean counters by saying that perhaps they themselves just don't know the good things they're missing out on.

Castiel appears to Dean in a dream and says he has something important to tell him but that they need to meet somewhere private. Dean and Sam go searching for Castiel but instead find Jimmy, Castiel’s human vessel, who has only a spotty recollection of being an angel. Jimmy wants to return to his family and normal life, but Dean and Sam are concerned about his safety. Demons work on capturing Jimmy, possessing his wife and kidnapping his daughter. Sam, Dean, and Jimmy are captured trying to rescue them and Jimmy is shot. However, Castiel possesses Jimmy's daughter and he and Sam kill all the demons. Sam, whose powers aren't working well due to a lack of demon blood, drinks blood from a demon in front of a horrified Dean and Castiel and exorcises Jimmy's wife. Not wanting his daughter to have to suffer as Castiel's vessel, Jimmy has Castiel possess him once again, but Castiel refuses to tell Dean what he wanted to talk to him about, having learned his "lesson" that he serves Heaven and not humanity and certainly not Dean. Dean and Bobby then trick Sam and lock him in Bobby's panic room to detox from the demon blood which he is now addicted to.

Reagan's 1983 "Evil Empire" speech sets the tone for a more aggressive US posture against the Soviet Union, and the costly arms race is renewed. He hopes that space-based anti-missile systems known as Strategic Defense Initiative could render nuclear weapons obsolete, but the Soviet Union is concerned of upsetting the MAD paradigm that had kept the world safe. Gorbachev assumes power in the Soviet Union, setting to reform the Soviet economy and encourage greater openness. He bonds well with both Reagan and Margaret Thatcher, charismatic to Soviet sensibilities, but the SDI issue prevents arms control agreements being made in Geneva Summit or Reykjavík. The weakness of the Soviet system is revealed by the Chernobyl disaster and Mathias Rust's Red Square stunt. Knowing the Soviet Union could not compete with SDI without the economic welfare of its people being severely curtailed, whose exposure to popular culture and foreign media has led to raised expectations, Gorbachev eventually agrees to a landmark agreement, the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty. Disarmament commences, under the maxim of doveryai, no proveryai. Interviewees include Donald Regan, Sir Charles Powell, Roald Sagdeev and Mikhail Gorbachev. The pre-credits scene shows an advertisement for Reagan's 1984 election campaign.

Throughout the Cold War both sides sought intelligence about their opponents using spies, satellites and other means. For political reasons, scientists working on the Manhattan Project provided nuclear secrets to the Soviets. British agents George Blake and Kim Philby passed on to the Soviet Union the identities of Western intelligence assets, and the presence of the Berlin Tunnel. Conversely, Soviet Colonel Oleg Penkovsky gave the West vital details of Soviet nuclear vulnerabilities. Intelligence services are also used to silence dissent, in particular in East Germany. After the Cold War an investigation revealed the Soviet Union had been aware of a number of double agents operating in its midst from information provided by a CIA mole, Aldrich Ames. One such agent, Oleg Gordievsky, managed to flee the Soviet Union, but Adolf Tolkachev and Dmitri Polyakov were arrested, tried and executed. Interviewees include Markus Wolf, Ted Hall, Oleg Kalugin, George Blake, Yuri Modin and Aldrich Ames . The pre-credits scene shows Polyakov being arrested by the KGB.

Castiel embarks on a mission to find God and ask him to defeat Lucifer and stop the Apocalypse. For this, Castiel borrows Dean's pendant, which he reveals to have the ability to indicate God's presence by glowing brightly. Bobby sends Sam and Dean to respond to a frantic call from his friend Rufus Turner , who is in River Pass, Colorado, a town swarming with demons. Sam and Dean can't find Rufus at River Pass, but instead find their old friend Ellen Harvelle . She and her daughter Jo have been hunting together; they answered Rufus's distress call as well, only for Jo to disappear like Rufus. When the group does find Jo and Rufus, they appear to be possessed by demons—and strangely, they seem to think Sam, Dean, and Ellen are also possessed. It is later revealed that there are no real demons present, merely illusions brought about by War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, to trick panicked people into killing each other. Sam and Dean stop War by cutting off his ring finger and taking his ring, causing War to vanish. Sam and Dean agree to go their separate ways because neither of them trust Sam on the job at the moment, and so they part.

It's a few days before Halloween, and Sam and Dean investigate two mysterious deaths in a small town. The brothers find hex bags and deduce a witch is sacrificing people to summon a dangerous demon named Samhain. Castiel arrives in town and tells Sam and Dean that the freeing of Samhain is one of the seals that will lead to freeing Lucifer. Castiel brings a specialist angel named Uriel to smite the entire town but is convinced by Dean not to and to give the Winchesters a chance to stop the witch. Samhain is freed despite their best efforts and after losing Ruby's Knife, Sam is forced to use his powers to exorcise the demon, stopping the rise of the ghosts and demons he was causing, but the seal is still broken. Uriel warns Sam that the next time he uses his demonic powers, Uriel will turn him to dust. Castiel reveals that his true orders were always to follow Dean's orders to test his leadership under battlefield conditions. Castiel warns that hard times are ahead and he doesn't envy Dean, but also that he does have doubts about his orders and what he has to do.
After watching Sam harness his powers, Dean angrily confronts him. Dean and Ruby also have a confrontation. Distance and tension is put between the two brothers as Dean realizes his younger brother is manifesting the demonic blood inside him with Ruby's help, and lying to him about it. Sam argues that he is able to save people and exorcise demons at the same time, but Dean reveals to Sam that Castiel has ordered him to stop Sam or else Castiel will, indicating he will kill Sam otherwise. Meanwhile, a hunter asks Sam and Dean for help in a case in Carthage, Missouri involving a man who is going through a metamorphosis into a Rugaru—a monstrous creature that consumes human flesh. During the hunt, Sam lashes out on Dean, saying he is tired of how Dean looks at him like a freak. Sam and Dean further separate as the tension increases between them. Despite attempting to prevent it, the man completes his transformation when the hunter tries to kill both him and his pregnant wife and he can't overcome his instincts anymore. He kills the hunter, but retains enough control to spare his wife. When the man tries to kill Dean, Sam is forced to kill him. Seeing what the man went through, Sam decides to stop using his powers.

Nikita Khrushchev becomes Soviet leader after the death of Stalin. Khrushchev rolls back a number of oppressive measures that existed under Stalin, restores relations with Yugoslavia and redirects resources to consumer needs. In a secret speech to the Soviet leadership he condemns Stalin's ruthless rule. West Germany is allowed to rearm, provoking the formation of the Warsaw Pact. Khruschev still wants Eastern Europe to remain within the Soviet orbit - he sends in troops to quell revolts in East Germany, Poland and, most significantly, Hungary. Interviewees include Anatoly Dobrynin, Charles Wheeler and Sergei Khrushchev. The pre-credits scene shows life in Soviet Union under Stalin's personality cult.

Sam and Dean discover that a spirit is haunting one of their old high schools. While investigating the haunting, Dean and Sam relive their high school experiences through flashbacks, recalling how Sam was picked on by the school bully while Dean was Mr. Popular. Initially, they believe it to be the ghost of a friend of Sam's who killed himself the year after they left, but when the ghost attacks Sam and calls him by name even after they burn the bones, they realize it's someone else. They learn that the ghost haunts the bus and possesses people there and realize the bus driver is the father of the kid who bullied Sam, Dirk. Sam beat him in a fist-fight before they left the school and gave him the nickname "Dirk the Jerk." The brothers learn from Dirk's father that he died at age 18 before graduation and that he lived a hard life, losing his mother shortly before Sam met him and gaining a lot of anger as a result. He got picked on a lot and kids called him "Dirk the Jerk." After learning that Dirk was cremated and that he is tied to a lock of hair kept on the bus, Sam and Dean confront Dirk while he possesses two people and Dean burns his hair, destroying Dirk's spirit. In the end, Sam visits a teacher who gave him the advice to follow his own path in life, but is unable to respond when asked if he's happy.

The United States saw the emergence of leftist movements in different Latin American countries as threatening to its commercial interests, and secretly plotted with military strongmen and middle class interests concerned with the land reforms and nationalisation policies of new governments. In Guatemala Jacobo Árbenz was ousted by a CIA-inspired coup in 1954. Similarly US meddling in Chile's economic and political spheres weakened Salvador Allende grip on power, and he was ultimately deposed by his own military in 1973. The United States sent troops to the Dominican Republic in 1965 and Grenada in 1983, and trained and supported various acquiescent juntas, including a brutal regime in El Salvador. In Nicaragua the United States secretly supported the Contras against the leftist Sandinista government; eventually military actions and economic sanctions push Nicaraguans into voting for anti-Sandinista politician Violeta Chamorro in 1990. Interviewees include Frank Wisner, Hortensia Bussi, Nikolai Leonov, Violeta Chamorro and Daniel Ortega. The pre-credits scene explains that although the USSR avoided intervening in the region, following the Cuban Revolution Castro and Che Guevara sought to spark "100 Vietnams" across Latin America by initiating guerilla movements.

Sam and Dean call Castiel for help when they investigate a case about several dead police officers who seem to have been killed by the plagues of Egypt. Castiel confirms the staff of Moses was used to kill the cops and tells Sam and Dean that Heaven is in a state of chaos and civil war between angels and God's weapons have been stolen. The three find that the officers were involved in the shooting of a young man, whose brother has the staff, which he got from an angel in exchange for his soul. Castiel deduces that the angel responsible, Balthazar , has split the staff into pieces to be able to buy more souls. When Castiel confronts Balthazar in his residence, Balthazar explains he deserted Heaven and thanks Castiel for creating the current situation. Raphael arrives and Balthazar leaves Castiel to deal with the mess. Before Castiel is killed by Raphael, Balthazar returns and uses what appears to be a white crystal to disintegrate Raphael's host into salt . Dean uses holy fire to trap Balthazar and force him to return Aaron's soul. Castiel releases Balthazar for repaying his rescue and both angels depart with no explanation to the brothers. Later, Dean questions Sam on his recent actions and thinks something's different with him.
Sam and Dean are ambushed by Meg the demon and some of her followers loyal to Lucifer, who are running from Crowley. Sam proposes a bargain: Meg will get to kill Crowley, if she can help them eventually recover Sam's soul. Meg agrees, and Sam decides to seek insurance in case of treachery. They try to get assistance from Samuel, who refuses - Crowley has promised to resurrect Sam and Dean's mother. Later, Samuel appears to have a change of heart, and tells the brothers and Castiel about a hidden monster prison Crowley is running, torturing creatures for information on Purgatory. During their preparation to attack the compound, Castiel voices his concern that since Sam's soul was locked with the very bored Michael and Lucifer, the ravages upon Sam's soul would either kill him or render him insane or broken. While attempting to infiltrate the compound, Meg's demons are killed by a hellhound, and Meg fights the creatures to buy the others time. Samuel has betrayed the brothers, forcing Castiel out of the building with a sigil spell and trapping Sam and Dean with Crowley's help. Sam escapes his guards, rescues Dean by killing the pair of ghouls, then both kill the demon controlling Christian, who found Meg and was torturing her for information. Together, the group tricks Crowley into stepping into a devil's trap, where Crowley states that getting the soul would be impossible, even for him. Crowley frees himself from the trap when Meg attacks him. Castiel reappears with Crowley's remains in tow, and once again Crowley professes that he cannot get Sam's soul back. Castiel immediately sets the bones ablaze, killing Crowley. Meg quickly vanishes, and Castiel leaves to fight a losing war against Raphael. Sam walks away from Dean stating that he doesn't want his soul back, as he is better off without it.

Pensions, Self-invested personal pensions

Not sure he trusts himself anymore, Sam decides to give up hunting and live a "normal" life. At night, his dead girlfriend Jessica visits him and tells him that people can never change despite their efforts. Dean, intent on stopping the Apocalypse, continues hunting on his own and teams up with Castiel to find the Archangel Raphael, as Castiel believes Raphael knows God’s location. They find Raphael's vessel and lure him out, but are no closer to finding God's location. Raphael even claims that God is dead. After fighting off fellow hunters who wanted him to drink demon blood in order to exorcise some demons, Sam gets another late-night visit from Jessica, who turns out to be Lucifer disguising himself as Sam's deceased girlfriend all along. He says that Nick's body was just Plan B, and that his true vessel is supposed to be Sam. He is convinced that eventually, without any trickery or lies, Sam will agree to be his vessel, although Sam adamantly disagrees.

For both altruistic and self-serving purposes, the United States provides massive grants of aid to the countries of Europe in the form of the Marshall Plan. Stalin, concerned that the intent of the Marshall Plan is to weaken Soviet influence in Europe, prevents countries in its orbit from participating, and establishes the rival Council for Mutual Economic Assistance. Communists come to power through a coup in Czechoslovakia in 1948. Tito, while originally aligned to the Soviet Union, adopts a more independent foreign policy and eventually switches to receiving Marshall Aid Assistance. The CIA and the Catholic Church conspire to help oust the Italian Communist Party and its coalition allies in the 1948 Italian election. The Marshall Plan has the effect of modernising European economies and societies, bringing Western Europe closer together, and closer to the United States. Interviewees include Vladimir Yerofeyev, Gianni Agnelli and Giulio Andreotti. The pre-credits scene portrays the squalor in post-war Italy, and Truman delivering his Truman Doctrine speech of 1947.

Dean and Sam investigate a series of deaths in Calumet City, Illinois where the victims had everybody telling them the cruel truth about themselves, leading them to commit suicide. Dean is now wary of his brother ever since he remembers seeing Sam allowing the vampire to attack him. The spell affects Dean and he takes advantage of the situation to question Sam, but Sam says he just froze and is appalled Dean doesn't trust him. As Sam appears to have told the truth, they continue their hunt and discover it is the goddess of truth, Veritas who is invoking the spell. But things don't go as planned as brothers are taken captive by Veritas and she is shocked to see that Sam is unaffected by her spell and he has been lying to Dean all along.

Following a text message from Chuck, Sam and Dean arrive at a hotel in Vermillion, Ohio, which is the site for a Supernatural fan convention. They find out that it was their over-enthusiastic fan Becky who sent the message, and have to deal with several Sam and Dean wannabes participating in a fictitious ghost hunt. After a convention attendee is seriously injured by real ghosts, the Winchester brothers start researching and find out that there's a real ghost haunting the hotel, whose name is Leticia Gore. Gore, who supposedly killed four children by scalping them, was the orphanage caretaker. Together with two copycat Winchesters they set out to find Leticia's bones to salt and burn them. When accomplishing their task they accidentally set the ghosts of the boys free. They find out that in fact the three boys killed Leticia's son and that she killed them in revenge for killing her son before killing herself and that only the caretaker was able to keep them under control. With Leticia gone the vengeful spirits lock all participants in the hotel and wreak havoc on them. Sam and Dean ask Chuck to keep everyone in the auditorium while they deal with the ghosts, using an actress/Hooters waitress to assume the role of Leticia Gore in order to control the children's ghosts. However, the plan fails when her cell phone rings, identifying her as a human. The ghosts attack Sam and Dean, but are destroyed by a pair of Winchester imposters, who were able to salt and burn the children's bones just in time. Upon leaving the hotel, Becky reveals to Sam and Dean that Bela did not give the Colt to Lilith, but instead gave it to her subordinate, Crowley.

The majority of the episode is from Castiel's perspective. He is no longer sure that stopping the Apocalypse was the right choice. He also reveals that he was the one that pulled Sam from Hell, but didn't have the power to pull him out all the way, though he was unaware of it at the time. Dean lies to Castiel to cover up that they are interrogating a demon to find Crowley. Castiel goes to meet with Crowley who is doing experiments with Eve's corpse. Crowley thinks the Winchesters are distracting Castiel, and tells him to kill them, but Castiel refuses, warning Crowley not to touch the brothers. Cas observes Sam, Dean and Bobby while invisible, then saves them from demons, but a slip lets them know their suspicions are correct. Continuing his monologue, Cas reveals he started the civil war in Heaven, using 50,000 souls from Hell, because Raphael wanted to raise Michael and Lucifer and resume the Apocalypse. The brothers summon Castiel and trap him in a circle of holy fire. Dean asks if Castiel is working with Crowley, and from Castiel's inability to look him in the eyes, Dean knows the answer. Crowley then appears to release Castiel, repeating that the Winchesters are holding him back. Back at Bobby's, Castiel appears to Dean, telling him to understand that he is doing this for him. Dean asks him to trust him and stop what he is doing, because he's like a brother to him, but Castiel says he won't. Dean then says he will do anything to stop him. Castiel asks God for a sign to see if what he is doing is right or wrong, and says that if God doesn't answer him, he will do whatever it takes. There is no sign.

The fears the leadership of both sides had were projected inwards towards their own people. In the United States the House Committee on Un-American Activities and the Tydings Committee carried out investigations into alleged Communist sympathisers in US public life, in particular the State Department and Hollywood. In the Soviet Union a personality cult emerged around Stalin, and a repressive police environment and comprehensive surveillance kept the population fearful. In response to Yugoslavia's maverick foreign policy, Stalin inspired the Prague Trials to warn Eastern European leaders not to stray away from emulating the Soviet model. Repression in the Soviet Union peaked with the investigations into the so-called Doctors' Plot, just before Stalin's sudden death in 1953. Interviewees include Arthur Kinoy, Ralph de Toledano and Boris Pokrovsky. The pre-credits scene shows a Russian labour camp and its victims.

Our contribution to UNTAG and our involvement in the Namibian settlement makes Australia party to what may be one of the United Nations' most substantial achievements for many years. We have been involved in this process from the start. Australia has been a member of the UN Council for Namibia since 1974. We pledged our support for UNTAG at the inception of the UN plan for Namibia in 1978. Australia also made an important contribution to UN deliberations about Namibia during our recent term on the UN Security Council in 1985–1986. Our participation in UNTAG also builds on the constructive role successive Australian governments have played on southern African issues. I pay particular tribute to the achievements of my predecessor Malcolm Fraser in this regard.
