The Road So Far
Abaddon took advantage of Crowley’s lingering humanity by using his son against him. Crowley gave the Winchesters the location of the First Blade and lured them to the penthouse where he and Abaddon were waiting; however, he warned Dean with a code word.



Once at the hotel, Dean faced off against Abaddon. Using the power of the Mark of Cain, he fought against her hold and killed her, giving into the bloodlust of the Blade.

Meanwhile, Castiel discovered he has a traitor among his followers. He reached out to Gadreel in the hope of getting him to report back on Metatron’s plans. He also learned that Metatron has a secret portal to Heaven that moves around.
