Supernatural S6 E11: "Appointment in Samarra."

Ok, this episode was good, but predictable, but the predictability was necessary for the plot.
Oh and it guest stars the awesome Robert Englund! Love him on Bones the most.

Dean wants to make a deal with the Horseman, Death. The best Horseman in my opinion, although Famine was a close second.

Dean knows that Death is about one the most powerful things on Earth, and he knows that Death can get into Lucifer's cage and retrieve Sam's soul. Of course Death is reluctant, he is prideful and the oldest thing ever...so he doesn't really care about one piddly human's soul. He also tells Dean if he were to get Sam's soul back into his body, there might be horrible repercussions to Sam's mind. Since both Micheal the Archangel and Lucifer were stuck in there with it, they basically made the soul their punching bag. And Sam would be ruined if he were to get the memories of the soul in him.



Death and Dean make another deal.


Dean doesn't necessarily not care, he just wants his brother back. And Death tells him that he could put a memory block in Sam's mind to protect him. But the wall could come down anytime. Of course Sam hears all of this, and doesn't want his soul back.

That's when a new angel, Balthazaar, tells Sam that if he kills his father, he won't even be able to get his soul back. So Sam decides to try to kill Bobby.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Death agrees to Dean's deal, if Dean will wear his ring for a full 24 hours. Dean agrees, but he is not allowed to take it off, or the deal is up.

So this is where it get predictable, Tessa the Reaper from Season 2, and 4, shows up as a guide. Of course Dean has no trouble killing a would be robber, or watch a guy have a heart attack, but as soon as he's charged with killing a sick girl, he refuses. And then that leads to a whole bunch of predictable repercussions that leads him to take off the ring. And now he thinks he's ruined everything. But Death tells him that wasn't the point of the deal, that Dean learned what he was supposed to.

And so the episode ends with Death stuffing Sam's soul into him.

Oh yeah, Dean shows up right on time to save Bobby from Sam, of course.

This if off topic, but the CW just released a new promo poster for Supernatural, and I wish I could hang this one up in my room!
