Quotes 

• Cain : When I made my bargain with Lucifer, killed Abel, I released a stain upon the earth, a stain deeper and far more lasting than mere precedence.

  Dean Winchester : Your bloodline's tainted, so you say.

  Cain : So I *know*. Not all killers are my descendants, and not all my descendants are killers, but enough are, enough for me to know that extinguishing them is the least I owe this world. Can you honestly tell me that humanity's not better off with fewer Tommys and fewer Leons... Fewer yous?

• Sam Winchester : I mean, come on. It's a kid. You don't really think Cain would-...

  Castiel : Yes, he would.

  Dean Winchester : There were old men in those graves, Sam, women. I mean, you heard Cass. It's a fire sale. Everyone must go.

• Sam Winchester : It's called true crime, Dean. It's a hobby.

  Dean Winchester : No. Bass fishing, needlepoint; that's a hobby, okay? Collecting serial-killer stats? That is an illness.

• Dean Winchester : When he gave me the Mark, Cain said that this day would come, that after I killed Abaddon, I would have to come and put him down.

  Sam Winchester : Great. So you're taking orders from a madman.

  Dean Winchester : No, he wasn't mad then. Cain resisted the Mark for a long time, then I came, kicking up trouble about the Blade. I sent him down this path. This is on me.

• Crowley : [about the First Blade]  What guarantee do I have that you'll give it back when you're done?

  Dean Winchester : If I survive and I come out of there and I *don't* give it back, you'll all have a much bigger problem on your hands.

• Dean Winchester : You know last week when I said I would go down swinging when the time came? I meant that, I was at peace with that... I just didn't realize that the time would come so soon. Like right now... I'm scared Sam.

• Sam Winchester : Dean, look, we want to help.

  Dean Winchester : No. No, with you in the ring, it'd just be a liability.

  Castiel : Dean?

  Dean Winchester : I'd be too worried about what he could do to you... Or what I could. Plus, I need you three out here to take out whatever comes out of there. And I'm serious. I mean *whatever* comes out.

  Crowley : Happily.

• Cain : This may be hard to believe in light of what I'm about to do to you, but I care about you, Dean. I truly do. But I know I'm doing you a favor. I'm saving you.

  Dean Winchester : Saving me from what?

  Cain : From your fate.
