It is understood that the angel Naomi sent in a garrison from heaven to get Cas out of purgatory. But how they were able to find a portal that allowed angels to pass through, when nobody in purgatory itself seemed to be aware of it, remained a mystery.
Fun as it is to watch, it is actually ridiculous how everybody makes a beeline for this universe, and that too, for some place in the United States, when they have to return from hell, heaven or purgatory. Given how many alternate realities the show has thrown at the audience over the years, from the bad place to the apocalypse world, one has to wonder why the portals from purgatory did not open up anywhere else.
Surely, there should be some escape hatch that takes an entity, human or otherwise, to a different universe, where they get to meet a different version of their own selves?
Purgatory is full of blood, bones, unadulterated horror, and impending dread at every corner, where it would seem as if the very air stinks of death. However, in season 15, the archangel Michael tells Dean and Cas about a Leviathan blossom that grows in the soil after a Leviathan dies. The blossom blooms only in purgatory and is one of the ingredients for a spell that might help seal God away.
Now, perhaps one can imagine a flower associated with the death of a Leviathan to be not exactly the ordinary kind, requiring neither sun nor water, because otherwise, given how stifling the environment seems to be in this supernatural dimension, it seems unlikely that flora of any kind would sprout there. After all, although purgatory is a forest, it's not exactly flourishing.
Another thing that makes no sense is how easily Michael, possessing Adam Winchester , in season 15, opened up a rift to purgatory so that Dean and Cas could look for the Leviathan blossom. After all the cloak and dagger of season 6, where purgatory was still just a notion and not even a real place, it seems odd that the archangel knew how to snap open the rift to this hell-ish realm all along. If that were the case, maybe Sam could have found a way to bring Dean back when the latter vanished for a year, or the brothers might have tried to bring Cas back the same way.
All they needed was an archangel, and fans know that in Supernatural , things like archangel grace are child's play. Okay, this is probably a futile point, given the make-believe nature of the show, but does it really make sense for Dean to have survived in purgatory for as long as he did?
Of course, it's Dean Winchester--an almost invincible hunter. Oregon is right next Washington state. Quotes Sam Winchester : So, you think I'm creepy? Connections References M User reviews 7 Review. Top review. What can I say, the episode has everything: romance, bromance, drama, and action thrills to get your blood pumping. The episode had everything that originally hooked me to Supernatural.
This episode is more like the Supernatural I have grown to love. What worked: -Loved the flashbacks to purgatory -Benny is awesome and very bad ass -A few good laughs What did not work: -How can Dean sneak up on vampires if they can hear a human's beating heart blocks away? It doesn't make sense in light of previous episodes. Go Supernatural! Details Edit. Release date October 31, United States. United States Canada.
Wonderland Sound and Vision Warner Bros. When he was trying to pull Cass out, his grip didn't slip - Cass pushed him through. He wanted to stay in Purgatory to atone for his many mistakes. When Sam returns, Cass flashes to a pure white, office-like space in Heaven. Naturally, Cass doesn't want to follow along, but she reveals he has no choice and won't even remember their chats.
True to her word, she snaps him back to Sam and Dean and they continue talking with no one the wiser. A part-time hobby soon blossomed into a career when he discovered he really loved writing about movies, TV and video games — he even arguably had a little bit of talent for it.
He has written words for Den of Geek, Collider, The Irish Times and Screen Rant over the years, and can discuss anything from the MCU - where Hawkeye is clearly the best character - to the most obscure cult b-movie gem, and his hot takes often require heat resistant gloves to handle.
Castiel deceives them by switching the correct blood mixture with dog blood and performing the ritual by himself. He then proceeds to absorb the souls of Purgatory all at once and destroys Raphael after Crowley teleports away. Sam tries to kill Castiel with an angel blade , but Castiel proves immune. He then declares himself to be the new God. Death tells Sam, Dean and Bobby that in order to control Castiel, they need to re-open the door to Purgatory and return the souls.
Dean and Bobby open the door to Purgatory and help Castiel return the souls, however The Leviathans are too strong, and stay on earth inside Castiel taking full control of his vessel. Dean and Castiel succeed in slaying the head Leviathan , Dick Roman , with the righteous bone soaked in the blood of the fallen: a fallen angel , the ruler of fallen humanity, and the father of fallen beasts. Upon death, Dick explodes so violently that Dean and Castiel are pulled into Purgatory along with him.
They awake to find themselves in a dark wooded area, with shadows and shapes moving in the trees. Dean asks how they can escape, to which Castiel replies they'll likely be torn to pieces instead. Castiel then disappears leaving Dean alone surrounded by the souls of monsters.
Some time after being separated from Castiel , Dean, armed with a makeshift blade he made in Purgatory, interrogates a vampire for Castiel's location and decapitates him when he doesn't get a response. He is attacked by another vampire, but is saved by Benny , a vampire, who decapitates Dean's attacker and reveals that God put in a way out for humans that get trapped in Purgatory.
Benny offers Dean a deal: he'll lead Dean to the portal if Dean allows his soul to hitch a ride out with him when he goes and warns him never to trust anyone in Purgatory. A year after being trapped, Dean escapes Purgatory with Benny's soul, ending up in the mile Wilderness in Maine.
Dean resurrects Benny and later tells Sam that Castiel died in Purgatory, that it got hairy near the end and Castiel "let go," but doesn't elaborate on how he escaped. During a later conversation with Dean, Benny agrees with Dean that Purgatory is "pure" and wishes he appreciated that fact like Dean did. In a flashback, Dean and Benny interrogate a rugaru on the location of Castiel and after getting it, Dean kills the monster with Ruby's knife.
The two find Castiel who admits he abandoned Dean as he knew many powerful monsters including the Leviathans would be after him. They inform him of the escape method Benny knows, though Benny admits that he doesn't know if it will work for an angel and convinces him to reluctantly join them in their search for a way out. Later, in another flashback, Castiel is shown reaching out for Dean and the two losing their grip on each other. It does present a curious curl in the metaphysics, doesn't it?
If you murder a monster in monster heaven, where does it go? In a flashback, Dean, Benny and Castiel come under attack by three monsters and kill them all, bringing up the question where monsters go when killed in Purgatory? They argue about the fact that Castiel's presence is drawing monsters to them and that he may not be able to make it through the way out as he's not human or former human, but are forced to run when Castiel detects Leviathans nearby. Two leviathans ambush them and Dean decapitates one while the other gets the drop on Castiel and nearly kills him before Benny decapitates her.
In flashbacks, Dean, Benny and Castiel make their way through Purgatory to the portal which Castiel is still not sure will let him out as he is not human. As they argue about the portal, it opens nearby in reaction to Dean's presence and Dean casts a spell to absorb Benny's soul into his arm. Dean and Castiel head for it, but come under attack by two Leviathans. They defeat and decapitate the Leviathans and head for the portal again which is closing.
Dean gets through as it closes, but Castiel purposely lets go as he wants to remain behind in Purgatory. Dean remembers this as losing his grip on Castiel, but Castiel later shows him the truth.
In the present, Castiel is rescued from Purgatory by other angels under the command of Naomi though it costs several their lives. When Sam needs to travel to Hell , rogue reaper Ajay takes him to Purgatory as there is a portal into Hell there behind a boulder located between three trees that grow together. After telling Sam to meet him where he was dropped off in precisely 24 hours, Ajay leaves.
After killing a vampire , Sam finds the portal and heads into Hell. After rescuing Bobby Singer , the two return through the portal to find no sign of Ajay as he has been killed by Crowley. Trapped, they are attacked by three more vampires , but are saved by Benny who has returned to Purgatory through death to save Sam at Dean's request.
Benny leads the two to the portal out and Sam absorbs Bobby's soul into his arm, but Benny, who never intended to return to Earth, stays behind to hold off more vampires. Sam escapes through the portal with Bobby's soul as Benny is overwhelmed.
