And with this fall finale in particular,Supernaturalis doing just that.
We start at a casino where … everyone is dead?
Clearly, this guy is not in great shape.

Cut to Eileen, whos in excellent shape, on what looks like a werewolf hunt.
(Is this indicative of Eileen filling the Dean role?
What if the series ends with Dean dying and Sam living with Eileen?!
Sorry, Im getting ahead of myself.)
But if Gods untouchable, why would he need a back-up plan?
According to Metatron, God has a secret fear that he shares only with his favorite.
And back then, Michael was his favorite.
The same Michael who helped Chuck overpower Amara once upon a time.
Translation: We need to talk to Michael.
But first, the boys have to talk to Chuck when he uses Donatello as a Bluetooth.
Then, together, Sam, Dean, and Cas head to hell.
Theyre quickly greeted by three female demons who proceed to kick all of their asses.
The answer is no.
Sue asks for her help on a vamp case in Omaha.
But shes loving life as a queen.
I shouldve died a long time ago, she says before asking Sam to refill her drink.
And while Sams gone, she turns her attention to the tension between Dean and Castiel.
Fix it, she tells them.
Or else, in death, it might haunt them.
Rather, hes in a diner.
We see two of them, but its made clear that Michael is only in Adams head.
The two, who are clearly friends after all that time in the cage, discuss next steps.
So yeah, family sucks.
Adam is contemplating getting a job when Lilith shows up and Michael takes over.
BUT something good did come out of that: Michael using his powers means Donatello can sense him.
However, Michael loves to hop from one place to the next, which makes locating him … difficult.
At the bunker, Sam and Dean finally get a moment to talk about Eileen.
You could do worse, Dean tells his younger brother.
And she could certainly do better, like so much better.
Im happy for you Sammy.
Were still a ways off, but its definitely a possibility.
Cas then prays to Michael and tells him that your father is certainly not who you knew.
He explains that Michael needs to understand the fight hes walking into and that God is now the enemy.
Also, shoutout to this amazing interaction.
Back at the bunker, the boys discover that Michael and Adam pretty much switch in and out.
As Adam explains it, they came to an agreement in the cage when they only had each other.
But before Sam and Dean can apologize to their half-brother, Michael shows back up and wants answers.
Whats so bad about his dad being back?
If God is back, hell usher in paradise!
(hey forgive him, this guy is really far behind.)
Adam tries to explain that maybe God is having a mid-eternity crisis, but Michaels not having it.
The good son cant doubt his father, even if he left him to rot in the cage.
Elsewhere in the bunker, Eileen gets another call from Sue.
Shes about ready to move on the vamps.
You werent even the star.
At least Lucifer knew that God cant be trusted.
I guess he was always the smart one.
He then hands over the spell that they used to lock Amara away.
The ingredients are all relatively simple … except for one: The nectar from a Leviathan blossom.
Its a flower that only grows in purgatory.
Michael then opens a rift to purgatory, one that will stay open for 12 hours.
Then, just before he leaves, he lets Dean talk to Adam.
Dean apologizes and tells his half-brother, Youre a good man.
You didnt deserve that.
Adam responds, Since when do we get what we deserve?
He then wishes Dean and Cas good luck in purgatory(!!!).
As for Sam and Eileen, they arrive in Omaha just in time to realize that somethings off.
There are no vamps.
