ABADDON BLACKMAILS CROWLEY — Castiel (Misha Collins) captures one of Metatron’s angels (guest star Gordon Woolvet) and asks Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) for help with the interrogation. Dean eagerly accepts, which doesn’t go unnoticed by Sam. Meanwhile, Abaddon (guest star Alaina Huffman) demands Crowley (Mark Sheppard) help her kill Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles). When he refuses, she reveals her shocking bargaining chip. Also, Castiel (Misha Collins) sets a meeting with Gadreel (guest star Tahmoh Penikett).

Finally the sneak peek!
The MOC is starting to influence Dean more and more. Is his eagerness to interrogate one of Metatron’s minions because he remembers enjoying torture back in Hell? Is the Mark making those dark thoughts resurface? What is Abaddon’s bargaining chip? Is Crowley’s son the chip? When Bobby summoned him, Crowley was clear he had no use for him. Has the human blood addiction and partial cure left Crowley suspetible to the human tendency to care for one’s child and to risk everything to keep him safe? Or does Abaddon have a deep secret to hold over Crowley’s head? When Cas meets with Gadreel, can he convince Gad to turn on Metatron and join Cas’s fight? Or will Gadreel stay on Metatron’s team? Or, maybe, does Gadreel have his own agenda?
We have Team Free Will reunited this week. Both Sam and Dean get hugs from Cas. Will the triuverate be strong enough to stand against Crowley, Abaddon and Metatron?
What are your theories?
I hadn’t thought about the human blood affecting Crowley’s relationship with Gavin. That is interesting. Evidently this is the episode that Jensen says sh*t really hits the fan. However there are hugs.
YAY for hugs!
there’s so much going on, I’m not sure how they’re going to tie this all together, or where it’s going. Dean’s on a downward spiral, Castiel is burning up from the stolen angel grace, and I’m not quite sure what’s going on with Sam, other than him periodically giving Dean concerned glances. I’ve seen a lot of redemption theories about Gadreel, him joining forces with Castiel to overthrow Metatron. But… what if he is a complete and total dick, and sides with Abaddon or Crowley to overthrow Metatron? I still think the King or Queen of hell is going to make a run at heaven. Either Crowley thru smarts or Abaddon thru brute force. In any event, hang on, things get bumpy from here.
I think you are right Percysowner, it looks like Crowley’s son might be the bargaining chip. I think they have left enough doubt about how Gadreel feels about Metatron to think that there may some wiggle room for Cas to convince him he is not doing the right thing. This one ought to be good.
I was really curious as to just what Abaddon could use as a bargaining chip over Crowley’s head because I couldn’t think of anything! His son would make sense! Kinda forgot about Gavin! Anyway, as super excited as I am about tonight’s ep (Cas is back and we’re heading into the finale and it’s getting SERIOUS) I’m gonna have to wait (tonight only, the rest of the games won’t interfere) until the basketball game is over. No, it’s not interupting the game, but a playoff game in the second round and one of the only things that can keep me from watching 9 pm PST. I still need to take Jared and Misha off my notifications on Twitter or I’m gonna get spoilers probably … ugh! Anyway, super excited and can’t wait to see it … soon as the final horn blows!
CHCH is up. OMG!
