No Rest For The Wicked

Sam:  Dean, what if uh… What if Ruby’s right? What if I can take out Lilith? 

(Dean looks at him angry over the idea) 

Sam:  Quit looking at me like that. 

Dean:  What, are you gonna give her the Carrie-stare and Lilith goes “poof”? 

Sam:  I don’t know what Ruby meant. You know, maybe we should just go ask her. 

Dean:  Sam, you wanted the knife – I got you the knife. 

Sam:  Dean, just listen to me for a second. Last time Lilith snapped her fingers and put thirty demons on our ass, and all we got’s one little knife? I mean, like you said, we go in smart or we don’t go in at all. 

Dean:  Well, this ain’t smart. 

Sam:  We got one shot at this, Dean. Just one. So if there’s a surefire way then maybe we should just talk about it. 

Dean:  Sam, we are not gonna make the same mistake all over again. 

Sam:  You said that but what does it even mean? 

Dean:  Don’t you see a pattern here? Dad’s deal, my deal, now this? I mean everytime one of us is-is-is up the creek the other is begging to sell their soul. That’s all this is, man. Ruby’s just jerking your chain down the road. You know what it’s paved with and you know where it’s going. 

Sam:  Dean.  What do you think is gonna happen? This is me, I can handle it.  And if it’ll save you… 

Dean: Why even risk it? 

Sam:  Because you’re my brother. Because you did the same thing for me. 

Dean (scoffs):  I know… And look how that turned out. All I’m saying, Sammy, all I’m saying is that you’re my weak spot. You are. And I’m yours. 

Sam:  You don’t mean that, we’re.. we’re family. 

Dean:  I know. And those evil sons of bitches know it too. I mean, what we’ll do for each other, you know, how far we’ll go? They’re using it against us. 

Sam:  So what? We just stop looking out for each other? 

Dean:  No, we stop being martyrs, man. We-we-we stop spreading it for these demons. We take this knife, and we go after Lilith our way. The way dad taught us to. And if we go down, then uh… then we go down swinging. 

(Sam just looks at him.) 

Dean:  What do you think? 

Sam: I think you totally should have been jamming “Eye of the Tiger” right there. 

Dean:  Oh, bite me. I totally rehearsed that speech, too.
