(Due to the shutdown, this will be our last episode for awhile. Stay well, stay safe, and we'll see you on the other side.)
(Clarification: We have filmed through episode 18, however our visual effects and sound departments have closed because of the outbreak. So, right now, the episodes can't be finished. However, have some special treats coming along the way-- to help us all get through this.)
(And yes, we, the CW, and Warner Bros fully intend to return and finish the series. It's not a matter of "if", it's a matter of "when.")
Episode 13:
Episode 14 had been scheduled for next Monday, but the powers that be have decided tonight is the last ep for a while due to the virus shutdown. SPN only had time to take one date as a rerun to make the original finale date in May, so unless they double up episodes, that date will move.
Then - pizza. Demon girls. Billie's destiny for the boys.
Now - Sam and Dean researching. No sign of Chuck. There's noise in the bunker. They go in search. Light under a door. Open the door. It's an Arbath! With Sam and Dean from another Earth. Bro, we did it. Dean? Sam? Sam? Dean? LOLOLOL Their rift fritzes out and they disappear.
Sam and Dean tell Cas about the incident. It's like they were us, from another world? Billie says God is almost done wrapping up the other worlds. We need to be prepared. I have the next step for Jack. Jack comes in eating a sandwich. He's ready. Feels good about it. Step 2 is spiritual in nature. Find the Occultum. It's hidden for centuries. It's powerful. Okay, thanks, big help. She asks Jack if he's truly ready. I am. Good to hear. We need to be ready and vigilant and not stupid. God, if he catches on to what we're doing, everything comes crashing down.
Sam ranting. Dean lost in thought. This whole thing is crazy. Death is our Obi-Wan and Jack is supposed to kill God. But that still leaves Amara. So maybe he kills her, too. Seriously. If we just take Chuck off the board, things are out of balance. Then the world ends. But if Jack kills her.....nothing out of balance. World saved. Sam asks who takes over? Jack? Jack just learned how to pop gum. LOL. They ask how this plan works. Billie hasn't been specific. Cas on the phone. Talked to Sergei. The Occultum is divine and was housed in an ancient temple. Mongol hoards and the black market. Owned by the Jacobson family. The faith healer would only accept the Occultum in payment. She was attractive and laid hands on the child, which glowed.
Sister Jo. Business is good. Dean brings up Hiram Jacobson. She says she can't talk about that. Patient confidentiality. Sam brings up the Occultum. Dean says God's back and he's pissed. He's going to murder the world unless we stop him. She won't make God her enemy. He's God. Boys have angel blades. She says she doesn't have it. Ruby does.
Topeka. She found me. Ruby said hey. Anything you wanna tell me, Jo?
You were friends? God no. Job partners sometimes.
They had an arrangement. Ruby can get a buyer for the Occultum for a cut. Do you know how much that thing is worth? Millions.
So she gave it to Ruby. You killed her before she contacted the buyer. It's stashed in Hell.
Pizza. And wings. Jack pigging out. Cas comes to the kitchen. Jack says when you come back from being dead, you really get into what life is. He still doesn't feel things like he used to. I used to feel things in my bones. Now....I understand joy or sadness but I know those things aren't in me. I understand why Sam and Dean were angered by what happened to Mary. By what you did to Mary. Jack understands the pain he caused. Will Dean ever forgive me? Cas says one day. Dean feels things more than any human he's known.
Dean and Sam return. Cas asks them to come with him. Ghosts of the alt Sam and Dean. They can't see or hear us. Where are they? Theoretically possible they're trapped between dimensions. Are they in pain? Don't think so. Dean says good and wants to leave for Hell. They tell Cas. You trust Jo now? Cas says you could be searching Hell forever. We need more info. Dean doesn't think they have time.
Back in Hell. Demon wanders in. You shouldn't be here. We're looking for Rowena. She's hosting a reception for newly condemned souls. Dean says you can take her to us, right? Good.
Cas and Jack. Cas worries about the holes in Jo's story. We need to ask Ruby. Who's dead in the Empty. I need you to kill me, almost. Flask. Cas wants to put one foot in the afterlife and contact Ruby. Draw out most of my life-force and store it in here. Then bring me back. Jack knows killing Cas is wrong. What if I screw up? Cas remembers to tell him to feed the spell bowl or Sam and Dean will be lost forever. Cas tells him to give him one hour, then bring him back to life. His grace goes into the flask.
Following the demon. Trap! Blades vs blades. Dean kills a female. Sam gets the guy in a hold. Dean kills the other female. Jo told them to help her by killing them and she'd bust them out of Hell. Sam kills the demon.
**Bitch set us up - well, duh, Dean.
**It does sound like Rowena that she'd welcome new souls to Hell, though. Hope we get to see her again before the end.
Jo packing up. A man comes for her help. She tells him Sister Jo retired to Florida. Don't make friends. They ask too much of you.
Cas searching for Ruby. Hello, Clarence. Meg! Rachel Miner, wow. The Empty went with a demon theme. Cas says I'm here fulfilling a request by Death herself. Empty says you're no fun. Go get her, Pizza Man. Ruby brought in. Where am I? You're dead. I remember. Are you dead? Almost. He asks for the Occultum. Ruby says it's so like Jo. Sam and Dean are searching in Hell right now. He asks about what happened.
Jo called Ruby. Ruby thought it might be a trap. What do you want? Jo wanted insurance against the apocalypse. You and I work well together when we have to. We can make it work for us. Jo wanted to ride it out in the Occultum.
It's a place? Ruby can tell you where and it's not in Hell. I'll help if you get me out of here.
Sam and Dean return. Jack, what the hell?
The Empty is full of sorrow and despair, angels and demons dreaming about regrets forever. You're clearly connected, Castiel. Just try. He agrees. So she tells him where.
Dean and Sam want Cas back now. Empty pauses Cas. He says we have a deal. Empty will make him wish he's dead until he leaves. Death promised the Empty sleep after the plan works.
Jack giving Cas the grace back and Cas isn't waking up.......until it's all back in. He coughs. Dean calls him an idiot. Cas says the Occultum is the safest place in the world. Jo would never give that up. I got the location. Am I still an idiot? Well yeah. Sam says let's go then. Jack worries about Chuck checking in on them.
Dean has a dumb idea. Chuck will look for us here in the bunker. He'd need to see us here in the bunker. The alt them can be them. Dean thinks they can get them all the way over.
Sam does the spell. They wait. Flash of light.
Beers for the Sams and Deans. They were hunters. Made it out just before the explosion. They don't drink much. Dad only likes private label scotch. They went through the rift together and got separated. To Dad. Best guy ever. Wow. So, this is where you live. And the hunting operation is based. Dean says we do just fine. We hunt monsters all over the country. Alt Dean says it's exhausting, isn't it? They hunt all over the world. They keep 2 pilots on standby. Sam asks how they afford it. Alt boys get paid. Hunter Corp pays very well. Dad built it. Smartest guy ever. Heh...... Dean and Sam tell them about God. But he may check in on us here. We don't want him to know what we're doing. So you pretend to be us. You'll have to lose the man bun. Alt Sam will not! LOL. And Alt Dean must change clothes.
Impala to a church at night. Jack thinks this is easy. Sam agrees. Something is growling? Is that a bear? Dean picking the lock. Hellhounds rushing them! Go! Dean picked the lock just in time.
Hell hounds trying to break in. Sam holding the door. guys look for the Occultum hiding place. Jack points to the cross on the floor. Sam can't hold it forever. Dean pries up the floorboard. Cas reads the Enochian. To be in the Occultium, the Occultium must be in you.
Samuel watching cat videos. My hair is sacred. Dean says they said drink beer in front of a computer screen. Porn. Busty Asian Beauties. Sam says if Dad caught us with that, goodbye trust funds. LOL. Dean envies the simplicity here. Hunt monsters, drink beer, and watch porn. They've got it made.
Dean doesn't like this. Doesn't trust any part of this. Jack ate the Occultium. And.....then he's in pain. And glowing. And then he disappears.
Jack on the grass. Sits up. Gets to his feet. There's a little girl here. You must not be human. They may not enter here. Are you an angel? It's a long story. Why do humans have to stay out. It's the Garden. Eden! God hid the garden away. Jack says the place might change him somehow. She says perhaps, if you're the one meant to find it. You'll know soon enough.
Cas and Dean arguing about Jack.
Snake in the tree. Who are you really? Who are you meant to be? Jack remembers his regrets. The pain. He falls to the grass.
Glow returns to the church. Sam still holding the door. Hounds break in. The glow takes care of them. Jack is back and unconscious. Dean asks if he's okay.
**So Jack has his soul back. What else could it be?
**Wonder where the Gardener is? That guy was cool.
Now it's time for the Alt boys to go. Dean tells them to go to Brazil. Alt Dean wants to keep the flannel shirts. They saw the car. Dean says you didn't touch it. Alt boys say they drove in it. What?? And we're leaving.
Cas comes out of the room. Jack is back but...something's different. No one's been in the Garden until now. They enter the kitchen. Sam asks Jack how he's doing? Jack is so sorry. He's crying. Why didn't I get it? My mother died, too. Why didn't I understand. It was my fault. Jack begs them to forgive him.
**Decent stopping point. I see storywise why they're pausing here vs. one or two episodes later.
Next ep - Ep 14 has a wood nymph whenever it airs.
