Room 73? Wow the bunker is huge, and also this must be such an isolated corner of it…

Poor Nick’s vessel… he has been through some shit, only to be brought back, with every promise Lucifer made him broken.

AND SAM HAS TO CONFRONT HIM, KNOWING NOT ONLY WHAT HE’S BEEN THROUGH AS A FELLOW VICTIM OF LUCIFER, BUT ALSO AS THE FACE OF LUCIFER THAT’S TORMENTED SAM FOR WHAT MUST SEEM LIKE AN ETERNITY.

I actually really love the potential in this dynamic, even as I really hate the gigantic plot hole that made it possible.

I’m just afraid they are going to ruin it.

Okay, thinking about it, the only acceptable reason to bother with Nick is if to have canon proof that you can kill the archangel without killing the human, thus saving Dean without it being way too implausible, since pretty much every other angel has lost body and grace, but only one has been stabbed with an archangel blade.

Hm. Acceptable alternative to Dean ejecting him I guess.

I think if it had been a killing blow to a human, instead of not hitting a vital organ like the heart or something, it would’ve killed Nick’s vessel too.

But the only one who can USE the archangel blade is another archangel, and Dinkle is the only one we currently have to hand. I doubt we can convince him to stab himself in a non-fatal-to-Dean way///

I suppose in theory that Dean could pull a Bobby and retake control of his vessel just long enough to stab himself.

But honestly I don’t think either of the two potential ways they introduced to kill Michael today are going to be the way it happens. (Probably not the Lance, either, though it was distinctly not mentioned today so who knows.)
