Regardless, this weeks episode was yet another reminder of why those stories work so well for this show.
(The first sign was the amulet, obviously.)
Were not really sure, but as Dean so eloquently puts it, Holy crap.

Quite literally, you have once again found yourself in Holy crap.
I was real hands-on for ages, Chuck explains.
And from his perspective, he thinks things did get better.
Wow, John Winchester felt that one in his grave.
Only the Winchesters can.
Oh, and by the way, thanks a lot, Winchesters, for freeing Lucifer from his cage!
Well, to be fair, Lucifer probably isnt too happy hes free right now either.
As Amara takes a brief break from torturing him, she realizes that something has changed.
Appearing to Dean, she realizes that her brother has surfaced.
And it sort of works.
Dean tells his brother about his visions.
(In other words, they need to find her now.)
With that, Sam and Dean are off to meet the sole survivor of the fog.
On the road, Dean gets a call from Scribe, a.k.a.
Metatron, who knows theyve met Chuck.
It seems Donatello is the newest prophet.
If Amaras fog is her God power, it couldve triggered the transition.
It could also be their way to finding her.
Think of it asSupernaturalCliffsNotes.
With that taken care of, Sam and Dean meet up with Metatron at a bar.
After Metatron orders them a couple margaritas which they obviously avoid he fills them in on their REAL problem.
It turns out, Gods autobiography is less of an autobiography and more of a suicide note.
Gods plan is to sacrifice himself to his sister.
Going straight to the source, Dean meets up with God at a playground.
But as God explains, he wont be dying.
Hell simply be caged.
And yet, not even that gives God pause.
As he sees it, if his plan doesnt work, humans will step up.
Thats why I saved you years ago, he tells Dean.
Youre the firewall between light and darkness.
But Dean wont go down without a fight.
Sure, he can handle a vampire (or 20), but this is above his pay grade.
He informs God that its you who has to take her out.
Back in the bunker, Metatron is officially joining the team.
As to how theyre going to keep Amara busy while they rescue Lucifer?
Well, thats where Deans one-on-one meeting in the woods comes in.
So while Sam and Metatron and Donatello rescue Lucifer, Dean reconnects with his lady love.
He tries to explain that there can be no us, but she doesnt go down without a fight.
She asks Dean to give up his humanity and become boundless with me.
As she puts it, Im the end of your struggle.
(Wow, she comes onstrong.)
However, the moment she touches his face, she knows somethings off.
She can sense that Dean has met God.
Only, when Metatrons plan doesnt work, she…kills him?
And who wouldve thought hed go out in such a selfless way?
Amara then catches up with Sam and company on the road.
But before she can hurt any of them, God zaps them back Baby and all to the bunker.
So thats one heck of a note to leave things on.
