== ''[[Supernatural]]'' takes place in the same universe as ''[[So Weird]]''. ==
Fi's dad was a hunter, and that's how he got killed. It makes a whole lot of sense if you think about it.
* Season three was supposed to be Fi going to hell to save her dad, before Disney nixed it as too heavy for a children's show. So he sold his soul for rock 'n' roll, the demon collected, and his soul's in hell. But between the beginning and end of the contract he got into being a hunter because of his encounter with said demon.
 
== Ruby was actually Meg ==
Line 11:
 
== Bobby never actually buried his dad's body ==
His mom was obviously not happy with what Bobby did, so it wouldn't have made sense for her to help cover up the murder. She probably called the police herself. Digging a hole takes a long freaking time, especially a six-feet deep one being dug by a kid, so chances are Bobby started digging while his mom reported him to the cops, but when they showed up, Bobby threw down the shovel and ran like Hell.
 
It's also very likely that Robert Singer was not his real name He changed it to that to avoid the law. Why did his parents call him Bobby, then? Just an inaccuracy of his memory caused by the bullet in his brain.
* But wasn't the house of his youth the same one he lived in as an adult?
 
== Dean never escaped the Djinn ==
Line 56:
Lastly, like Zachariah pointed out for the seals, if God DIDN'T want this to happen, there was no way it would've. Sure, the Apocalypse came and he didn't care, but surely there would be something done when someone wants to usurp the position of God? Just saying.
 
* Or, maybe, God knew it would work out, since God is supposed to know everything. Personally, I believe God DID care about the Apocalypse--heApocalypse—he interfered enough to give the Winchester boys a chance, didn't he? Why do that if he really didn't care? Maybe he just wanted the world to fix itself. And since he sealed the Leviathans in Purgatory in the first place, he HAD to know that Cas would suck them in if he opened the door to it. So maybe God just let Cas take over for a few days because he knew it wouldn't last and he still trusts the world to get itself out of its own messes. Also, free will is kind of a basic tenet of the Abrahamic traditions, which seem to be what this God comes from. Despite the angels claiming it doesn't exist, clearly it does, since the Winchesters stopped the Apocalypse and burned the script. So maybe God was letting his creation exercise free will, like he promised.
 
== The pagans, God, the Horsemen, Eve, and the Leviathans are all the same type of creature ==
Line 69:
== Sam is still in Lucifer's Cage... ==
and Season 6 is a hallucination designed to screw with him. After all, there's more to torture than just physical pain. This explains why there's a heavier focus on Sam than Dean. The soulless thing embodied Sam's worst fear - of becoming evil and hurting people. Dean giving up on his life with Lisa and Ben and throwing himself into retrieving Sam's soul happened because they wanted Sam to feel guilty for causing his brother pain. The reason why Cas is turning dark-side is because Michael is still pissed about getting incinerated with holy fire. In the season finale, the version of Sam who supposedly remembered Hell actually knew that it was all just an illusion; after "waking up", Sam knows that he is still in Hell. He and Adam are trapped with Michael and Lucifer, forever, without any hope of escaping. Sweet dreams, folks.
* Played with quite a bit in the Season 7 premiere. At least Sam's Lucifer hallucination mentions this.
* OP: Similar theory: The illusion is all for ''Dean''. After all, the very first episode of the season had djinns making him hallucinate that Azazel was back; and right after that, Sam showed up to save him, miraculously resurrected from the Cage - probably Dean's greatest wish at that point! However, everything went downhill from there, because the demons were behind all of it and wanted to make Dean suffer as much psychological torment as possible by giving him the thing he wanted most back, ruining it, making his life suck again, etc., all BEFORE they wake him up and gloat about how none of it was real. (I never for one second bought that the demons WOULDN'T want his blood for helping lock their daddy back in a hole, btw. They should've been hunting him down the second it happened.) One explanation? Perhaps he was ambushed and captured before the last scene of "Swan Song", and the ''entire year'' he spent with Lisa and Ben (the promise he made to Sam getting fulfilled) was just the demons screwing with him. Perhaps they'll wake him up when they feel he's good and broken so they can interrogate him to learn how to bust Lucifer out. (This entire WMG is poorly-written, badly-reasoned, and incomplete to boot, but my fingers are tired and it's five in the morning, so I think you get the gist of it.)
 
Line 77:
* Episode?
** Just when they say that every demon was once a human. they're just changed by their time in Hell.
** That doesn't imply that demons are just ghosts, though.
*** Yes it does. Just very twisted/corrupted ghosts with amped up abilites.
* Burning their bones kills them. Bobby seems to agree with this WMG, and it seems pretty much confirmed.
Line 83:
** Probably not, but it would be AWESOME.
* Demons are ''similar'' to ghosts, but they're not exactly the same. Ghosts don't leave behind sulfur. Ghosts don't look like black smoke. Ghosts ''rarely'' possess people, and when they do, they don't give them nifty powers like the ability to teleport around or shoot out blasts of demonic light (that DemonBlood!Sam is immune to). It's more fair to say demons are kind of like…pumped-up Super Ghosts, created by Lucifer. Not just regular restless spirits.
** The main point of evidence for this is the first demon's (Lilith) description as a human soul twisted by Lucifer. It would make sense for something [[Touched Byby Vorlons|altered]] by an [[Reality Warper|archangel]] to come a cut above the rest.
 
== Demon blood is a placebo ==
Line 89:
* Alternately, [[Psychoactive Powers|Sam's powers depend on his mental state.]] The demon blood has proven (and even been discussed) to make Sam feel more powerful and in control, more dominant; being an empathetic person at heart, maybe he simply cannot access those emotions, and by extension the powers, without its influence.
 
== Blues Clues and Supernatural take place in the same continuity. ==
Steve's house is actually Lucifer's Cage.
The entire scenario is an elaborate hallucination created by Lucifer's endless years of boredom, which have slowly turned him insane. The 'Steve' Character a detached identity he has assumed as a result, and he constantly solves mysteries in a continual cycle to pass the endless eons of time.
Line 108:
And you know who that child grew up to be? None other than the good captain, Jack Harkness! If you really think about it, it could make sense. It is a really long story...
* Dean and Jack's facial expressions are way too identical.
** Note: if we're in the same universe as ''[[Torchwood (TV)|Torchwood]],'' then [[MMister PregSeahorse]] is probably canonical.
{{quote| "Still, at least I won't get pregnant. ''I'm never doing that again.''"}}
* I would give ''anything'' for this to be true, omg.
 
Line 116:
 
== Sam was forced to kill {{spoiler|Adam.}} ==
When the two descended into the cage, they were at each other's throats. Perhaps, they continued the fight except this time it was a cage match. Sam, free of Lucifer's control, had to kill {{spoiler|Adam}}/Michael in self-defense. It would also explain why {{spoiler|Adam}} didn't leave the cage with Sam. It might explain his behavior in "The Third Man." He's trying to rationalize that decision by being more ruthless.
* Jossed in "Appointment in Samarra." He's stuck in the cage (which probably would make him prefer if he were killed).
 
== ''[[Supernatural]]'' takes place in the same universe as ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]'' ==
It's set at the same time, during which a number of complete strangers are suddenly showing evidence of superpowers. You figure it out. From this, it follows that:
* Maya's power is the result of being possesed by a demon. (It explains the black eyes.)
* The characters with powers in ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]'' {{spoiler|will eventually be forced to kill each other off until only one is left. Sylar was just the first to figure it out.}} Of course, this could get complicated now that we know that Claire's blood can bring people [[Back From the Dead]].
* Daphne's even from Lawrence, Kansas. Appearance says her family is an offshoot of the Campells.
 
Line 132:
We haven't seen a body, and after an experience like that there's no way he's going back to the FBI. My guess is that now that he knows demons are real, Hendrickson will become a hunter and team up with the Winchesters at a later date.
* [[Sorting Algorithm of Deadness]] score: 2.86, so there's some hope for [[Back Next Season]].
** I came up with a Sorting Algorithm score of an even 3, but that doesn't factor in the fact that A) [[Word of God|Kripke]] has said they're done with the FBI plot, B) The show's [[EverybodysEverybody's Dead, Dave|usual method of wrapping up storylines]], and C) The fact that the episode in question was written by Sera Gamble who's said in interviews that one of her favorite things to do is kill off well-liked characters and she does it so often that it borders on [[Author Appeal]], or something close to it.
*** Jossed in 4.02 when Hendrickson comes back as a very pissed off spirit due to "The Rising of the Witnesses"
 
Line 159:
== Dean can't (permanently) die. ==
Okay, so this is a big [[Back From the Dead]] show but seriously, how many times has he had an onscreen death or was supposed to have died? There's obviously the big one in ''No Rest For The Wicked'' ({{spoiler|and it's likely that Castiel is going to pull him out of hell because there's work to be done. What work?}}), there was plenty in ''Mystery Spot'', he shoots his doppelgangers dead in ''Dream A Little Dream Of Me'' and ''Skin'', he stabs himself to get back to reality in ''What Is And What Should Never Be'', he was supposedly dead in ''In My Time Of Dying'', he was ready to die as far back as ''Faith'' and we see him get shot in the head in ''Nightmare''. And that's not even counting the whole wish to rest thing or the suicide in slow motion that he had going in the former half of Season Three. All that has got to count for something. And how cruel/awesome would it be to have the established [[Death Seeker]] to actually not be able to die?
* Interesting theory, and not entirely unsupported by canon, in that the angels have a vested interest in keeping Dean alive until it's time for Lucifer and Michael's showdown. But a lot of those on-screen deaths weren't actually Dean. "Dream A Little Dream of Me" doesn't quite jive with "What Is And What Should Never Be" (in that Dean says in the latter that if you're about to die in a dream, you wake up) but if you accept that the dream-Dean was actually a personification of waking Dean's subconscious fears and anger, then shooting it wouldn't actually have an effect on Dean. In a way, it's a metaphor for his facing his issues (finally). In Skin, the shape-shifter wasn't actually sharing a body with Dean, so Dean's own mortality isn't in question. Mystery Spot is a little trickier, but since that was the Trickster trying to teach ''Sam'' a lesson, it can be argued that Dean didn't actually die at all during that time--ittime—it was all in Sam's mind. In short, it's easy to buy Dean as a [[Death Seeker]], but I think he's just as mortal as anyone else when he doesn't have something bigger watching his back.
** Considering that the Trickster is really {{spoiler|the archangel Gabriel}}, there's a very good chance that Dean really ''did'' die thousands of times. It would certainly gel with "Dark Side Of The Moon", where {{spoiler|Castiel says specifically that they've been there before many times but don't remember it}}. "Changing Channels" certainly shows he's got the power to play up alternate realities and keep them that way.
 
== The Trickster is actually a Q. ==
Line 166:
* Hah! He does kind of look like a Q, too, doesn't he? Jossed by "Changing Channels," sadly. Though since he's described as a pagan ''god'', and addressed as "Loki" by the other gods in Hammer of the Gods, that might explain where some of his power comes from.
* No, no, no, Q is actually Gabriel - we all know he likes pranks, especially involving aliens: pretending to be an advanced alien lifeform in order to mess with the humans would totally be his style.
* This Troper would like to point out that, in the [[Expanded Universe]] novels, Q is pretty much every single Trickster God ''ever'' (including Loki), not just on Earth. Q is also on the [[Pals Withwith Jesus]] page, for what it's worth. Making this one...hilariously possible.
 
== How the series will end. ==
Line 174:
== Season Four Ruby is really Lilith. ==
OR Ruby has been in league with Lilith the whole time. And she's setting Sam up to be the skinsuit for Lucifer.
* Alternate theory: Ruby really does hate Lilith's guts, but she was in league with Azazel--weAzazel—we found out in "In The Beginning" that he was up to something bigger and more ambitious than we ever realized, and whatever his plan is, it definitely involves the Last Psychic Kid Standing. By encouraging Sam to use his powers, even for good, Ruby hopes to send him down the slippery slope to the Dark Side.
 
== Uriel is going to be killed by Sam. ==
Line 188:
 
== Ruby is an undercover/fallen angel ==
Devil's advocate, literally - she's there to oppose every option of them upstairs to make sure Free Will still has a say and the boys actually think through their actions. I know she's supposedly relatively low-level from her eye-color, but it's a possiblity that could be part of her disguise. If you're inflitrating the enemy, then you go in as a soldier, not a general.
 
== The Angels in the series are a different type of [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Angel]] then we thought. ==
Line 195:
== Dean is a Trickster ==
Love of sweets? Check. Smarmy attitude? Check. Loves showing up people who are "dicks"? Check. Immortal? Death hasn't really stuck yet. He even rather intuitively figured out the Trickster's reason for selecting his targets in Tall Tales ''before they even knew what they were facing''. And for some reason, Dean not only liked the Trickster's style but was even a tiny bit sorry to have to kill him (even if ''that'' death didn't stick either). Whether he knows it or not, there might just be a little something more to the elder Winchester.
* Taking this to its logical conclusion, he's ''the'' Trickster. Remember, it's established that the Trickster can make illusory copies of himself, so having seen them together doesn't eliminate the possiblity. Suddenly the Trickster's motive in "Groundhog Day" makes more sense--hesense—he wants to help Sam get used to Dean's death because he ''is'' Dean, who doesn't want Sam to save him. This theory makes a lot more sense with the caveat that Dean doesn't actually know he's the Trickster; the Trickster we've seen is a projection of his subconscious, which is free to use Dean's powers as it pleases.
** Unless the writers are up to something seriously brain-breaking, this was [[Jossed]] by "Changing Channels".
 
Line 208:
* {{spoiler|Turns out he's Gabriel. Or so he says. That could turn out to be yet another Trick.}}
 
== [[Cool Car|The Impala]] is really a [[Doctor Who (TV)|TARDIS]]. ==
Its trunk is ''obviously'' [[Bigger Onon the Inside]], considering all of the weaponry and clothing it has to hold at any given time.
 
== The ''[[Friday the 13 th13th (Filmfilm)|Friday the 13 th]]'' remake takes place in the ''Supernatural'' universe between seasons 3 and 4... ==
Think about it, the "I'm looking for my sister" thing in the trailer could be a perfect cover story, and Sam goes under other names all the time.
 
== Dean is now uncircumcised ==
He mentioned that all his scars had disappeared after he was raised from hell. My guess is that it also includes the hoodie.
** But has he been rehymenated? And was he circumcised to begin with? When in canon did this ever come up? Why do I think you're so awesome now?
** [[Anatomically -Impossible Sex|Didn't he explicitely say he was "rehymenated"?]] And, well, he is American.
 
== Dean has never actually eaten pie ==
Line 227:
In the Season 4 finale, when Dean asked where's God in the angel's plan to allow Armageddon to occur, Zachariah simply said that he "has left the building." Then Dean looks at the gate behind him. In another episode, the fallen angel Anna Milton said that only four angels have seen God. Presumably they are the only ones who are allowed to since they are the highest level of angels.
 
This theory suggests that some time ago, the four angels are tired of following Gods orders and have him [[Sealed Good in Aa Can|sealed behind the gates]]. This would explain why God has yet to make an appearance in the show. It would be revealed that he indeed did have a hand in the Season 2 episode "Houses of the Holy", where he caused a freak accident which killed an abusive boyfriend. It was a sign to get Dean's [[Distress Call|attention]] as he is [[Spanner in Thethe Works|chosen]].
 
== Bodiless spirits have 'static' personalities. ==
Static in the sense of being hard to change. This would explain all the ghosts caught in patterns from when they were alive, doing exactly the same thing over and over. It would also explain why Dean came back from Hell as just a sadder version of himself, instead of being a vastly different person, even though he spent ''40 extremely traumatic years'' there. After all, even if you have a pretty good life, you're a very different person at 60-7060–70 years than you are at 20-30. Think of it - Dean spent more time in Hell than he did alive. And traumatic experiences cause a much greater change in personality in a short time, hence all the 18 year olds who go off to war and come back a couple of years later completely different.
Dean's experiences in Hell are about the only trauma the main characters experienced that the authors didn't portray entirely accurately to [[Real Life]]. This theory could explain why.
** To be fair, we don't ''really'' know what a realistic depiction of the effects of spending time in hell on one's psyche, would look like. We know what the effects of physical and mental torture are, and these are portrayed accurately to [[Real Life]]. But we really have no idea what exactly supernatural or mystical torment would do to someone, so they have a bit more leeway here. For all we know, torture in hell only hurts a person's soul, not their mind, which could be why his personality isn't noticeably changed.
* Then again, if we are to believe Ruby, {{spoiler|some "bodiless spirits" in Hell actually become demons,}} so they did change. I could see both of those working, though, since it seems to be accurate for ghosts, and Dean. In fact, this is something I have assumed as true without even realizing it's not explicitly canon...
** It is never stated, however, that time actually moves slower in hell. This seems to be a common misconception among Supernatural fans. It is only stated that time ''feels'' like it lasts much longer, what with the indescribable agony and all. Kind of like how a really bad day can seem to drag on forever, but it's not actually any longer than any other day.
 
== Lucifer is responsible for bringing Castiel back from the dead ==
Line 251:
== The mortal world will end in Armageddon. ==
The side of Heaven might win the battle, but it will be a Pyrrhic victory if it happens at all.
* More or less confirmed by the angels--theyangels—they (aside from Castiel) don't really care how many humans suffer or get annihilated during the final conflict, as long as they win.
 
== Cain and Abel were the original vessels for Michael and Lucifer ==
Line 257:
* Or, the world began the same way it's going to end. Elder brother kills younger brother.
 
== ''[[Supernatural]]'' takes place in the same universe as ''[[Good Omens (Literature)|Good Omens]]''. ==
Meaning that yes, Mark Sheppard's Crowley is the same Crowley as in the book. You've even got the Four Horsemen and angels who want the apocalypse to happen. And when they couldn't get the Antichrist kid from "I Believe The Children Are Our Future" to destroy the world, the demons went looking for another one they had planted eleven years ago, who due to a miscommunication was switched at birth...
* I assumed it was the other way around, that the Tadfield Apocalypse happened before the Winchester Apocalypse.
Line 269:
 
== Most episodes since 5x04 show how come "The End" storyline doesn't come to pass. ==
Dean and Sam getting back together is what changed everything. This is why "The End" timeline isn't going to come to pass. With each episode, we see the differences between the original timeline and the changed timeline.
Dean and Sam getting back together is what changed everything. This is why "The End" timeline isn't going to come to pass. With each episode, we see the differences between the original timeline and the changed timeline.<br /><br />First of all, from 5x04 we got to know that the angels disappeared/left and aren't coming back. They didn't. What actually happened was that in the original timeline - when the boys were separate - Jesse nuked the angels. Perhaps without Sam's insistence on saving Jesse, Dean went along with Castiel and they attacked him. Perhaps, without Sam - who has experienced the temptation of the dark side himself - Jesse could not be convinced to not join the demons.<br /><br />Second of all, it took Dean five years to locate the Colt. Why? Because Becky called ''Sam'' to the Supernatural Convention. In the original timeline, he simply ignored her. He wasn't hunting so he didn't care about "Chuck's" "life-or-death" situation. Therefore, they never got the tip about the Colt, they never met Crowley and as such it took Dean five years to track the Colt down - only to find out that it's ineffective against the devil.<br /><br />Third, how did Lucifer end up in Sam's body? Two possibilities. One is that without the ''Abandon All Hope'' and ''Sam, Interrupted'', Sam's rage issues were never addressed. Lucifer never revealed that Sam should "feed the anger in his belly" and this has somehow led to Sam saying Yes. The other possibility is that something went very, very differently during the body swap episode. Perhaps Garry swapped with Sam when Dean wasn't around and wound up saying Yes. Without Dean there to figure out that Sam was Not Sam, Garry was convinced to let Lucifer in.

* The Gary thing is less likely considering the main reason Gary and his friends decided to perform the body switching spell in the first place was because the demons had declared Dean as "Hell's Most Wanted". If Dean and Sam were separated, the kids wouldn't really have had a reason to switch bodies.
 
At the, well, end, of "The End" Dean says something along the lines of about how the brothers "keep each other human." Whithout Dean around, Sam really doesn't have anything good in his life, and has no ''personal'' stake in the outcome. Sure, there's the whole planet thing, but seriously, Lucifer is wearing him down every night for two years and he's supposed to hold on for some abstract concept (seeing as how humans don't actually comprehend super big numbers).
 
== The Trickster created all the other Tricksters. ==
Line 285 ⟶ 291:
== Dean will say Yes to Lucifer; Sam will say Yes to Michael ==
Dean and Sam are of the same bloodline, so it may not matter which angel goes in which brother.
** Jossed. Sam is only Lucifer's vessel, because of the demon blood. He can't be possessed by Michael and Dean can't be possessed by Lucifer.
 
== God hasn't given up them ==
Line 293 ⟶ 299:
== Castiel is in love with Dean. ==
Just watch 5.18. Seriously.
* Agreed. Sure, I am a shipper, but from a more realistical viewpoint, I'd say that it's definitely unrequited love. I mean, he gave up EVERYTHING for Dean. Literally. At first it would have been believable that he did it to save humanity. But then again, everytime he talks about his sacrifice, he says specifically, "for you!". It would also explain the stalking (In 5x14, Dean hadn't finished describing where they were, and Castiel popped up right in front of him), the lack of personal space, and why he stuck around with him for FIVE years in a [[Crapsack World]] (5x04).
* Dean is aware of it, which explains why he chose these specific words to taunt Castiel: "Last person who looked at me like that, I got laid." Knowing that his affections were being mocked made Castiel even angrier.
* Even my brother watched the episode (doesn't know anything about the show) and his reaction after watching it was him saying something along the lines of "oh, so this is like queer as folk with demons?" It makes me wonder just why they wrote 5.18 like that, they could've played Castiel as being angry with Dean taunting him- but why choose such suggestive lines? Oh and 5.04, with Castiel becoming human so that he could stay with Dean specifically even though the other Angels had gone back to Heaven.
* (4.10) While Anna was kissing Dean, there was a cut-in to Castiel's facial expression. He appeared upset and jealous. (5.03) Castiel didn't seem at all interested in having sex with the hooker, but smiled when Dean put his arm around him. Also, his dialogue in 5.18 was reminiscent of a betrayed lover. ("I gave everything to you, and this is what you give me?")
* At this point I'd be more surprised if this ''wasn't'' true. In 6.03 {{spoiler|after not answering Sam for a ''year'', Castiel responds to Dean almost immediately. Sure, he may snap at Dean, "You think I came because ''you'' called?" but it comes off like he's just pissed that Dean is being such an asshole about the whole thing. He's pretty much already confirmed to Sam that that's ''exactly'' why he came, especially with the comment that he and Dean "share a more profound bond".}}
* Hehehehehe. You can say one thing for the writers of Supernatural: they know their audience far too well. 6.20 is literally Castiel's recount of why {{spoiler|he made a deal with the devil because Dean wasn't there for him.}} Because Castiel didn't want to ask Dean for help and interrupt his new happy life, {{spoiler|he made a deal with Crowley for the power to defeat Raphiel.}} You don't need to be a shipper to read into that. Hell, you don't even have to be in the show's target demographic to read into that! It's bloody plaintext! In fact, it's in this very wiki. I think you'll find it under [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]].
** Exactly. They know, and they're taunting us with it. (Which is totally okay, to be honest.)
 
== Dean is already possessed by Michael ==
This happened when he {{spoiler|said yes}}. Which is why he could kill {{spoiler|Zachariah}} in "Point of No Return."
* It's stated a few times that an Archangel's ''sword'' can kill another Archangel. It's never said that it has to be an Archangel wielding the blade.
Line 311 ⟶ 317:
 
== Castiel or Bobby (or both) will die at the end of season 5. ==
Judging by the episode synopsis' for the last three episodes, it seems pretty likely. [https://web.archive.org/web/20100427091132/http://tvbythenumbers.com/2010/04/21/the-cws-may-sweep-highlights-vampires-witches-lucifer-zod-and-human-guest-stars-abound/49334 Here they are, for anyone interested (obviously, slight spoilers ahead)]
** It could also be [[Author Avatar]] Chuck.
** After the spoilers were released about {{spoiler|Castiel's}} battle with {{spoiler|Michael}} it has almost been confirmed that {{spoiler|Castiel}} will die. (Please, please don't read these if you want to remain unspoilered for the end of Series 5, unfortunately I stumbled upon them by accident and now am preparing myself for the inevitable.)
*** Then again, it makes me a bit suspicious, because it's so obvious. It would be such a big turning point for the show, I just can't believe that it will happen. [[Never Trust The Trailer]]. Or spoiler, in that case. Also (real spoilers!) {{spoiler|it said "beloved character". Which means it could be anyone ranging from Castiel to Crowley, Meg or even Dean and Sam. Hell, maybe even Lucifer. I don't think that there's one character left on the show that is generally disliked (like most of the female characters). Remember last season, when a "fan favourite" was to die? While I'm one of the few who liked Ruby, I think that we all know that she was anything but a fan favourite. }}
Line 347 ⟶ 353:
** {{spoiler|Joshua himself rather explicitly said that if God doesn't want to be found, the necklace will do no good.}} Which kinda makes sense, considering that it is God we're talking about.
* The alternate possibility is that, as a prophet, Chuck has finished the story that he started all those years ago. His job done, he's been whisked off to Heaven.
* The way I see it, Chuck actually lived happily ever after with Becky. God assumed Chuck's form, and residence, for that episode. It certainly explains a lot more, including the change in personality of moments when he's alone during that long gap between appearances. Though I'm still kind of weirded out by that one call he was expecting. Though maybe that was an act to not have Dean realize he was expecting him.
* Biblically, prophets and the like usually die/are assumed to heaven after their work is done. My sanity demands this be true with Chuck, because otherwise, what was the point of the amulet?
** Easy: {{spoiler|The revelation of God's apathy towards the Apocalypse acts a huge turning point and a catalyst for some of what happens next. Cas, after his desperate searching, is devastated to find God is blatantly hiding from them and loses most, if not all, of his faith in just about everything (God, Heaven, the Winchesters and their plan). Hell, he even ends up on a bender over it. Dean really loses faith as well, and in the next few episodes basically does a 180 and thinks that maybe saying yes to Michael isn't such a bad idea. }}
Line 366 ⟶ 372:
 
== Castiel is the most powerful entity on the show. (Except God and Jesse) ==
Think of it: Michael and Lucifer are in the pit, and it is implied that Castiel will resume Michael's position ("new sheriff in town"). Castiel has to be strong in order to gain respect from his siblings (after all, he was public enemy no.1 in heaven), which means that he's probably as strong as Michael himself now. Michael was stronger than Lucifer, who was stronger than all the pagan gods. Unless there is something we don't know, Castiel should be the strongest.
* I know that nobody seems to remember/care about him, but... what about archangel Raphael?
** Well, I think it's safe to assume that Michael was stronger than him. I can imagine that Raphael and Castiel work together, though.
** Either that or Raphael is still trapped in that circle of fire.
* {{spoiler|Well, now he is.}}
Line 377 ⟶ 383:
 
== The Pit is ''not'' a part of Hell. ==
The Pit was designed to contain Lucifer, not to torture him. Perhaps, the Pit was not unpleasant for Sam ''sans'' the isolation and [[Arch AngelArchangel Michael|unruly cell-mate]]. Lucifer never complained about the Pit, only about being put there for his disobedience. Sam doesn't want to tell Dean about this because he's ashamed that [[The Atoner|he didn't suffer more for his mistakes]]. Also, Lucifer's ability to "whisper through his bars" in "Lucifer Rising" implies that Earth time is comparable to Pit time, unlike Hell, where [[Year Inside, Hour Outside|time flows about 120 times faster than it does here on Earth]].
 
== In the end, Castiel will fall. ==
Well, first of all, it's been built up to for two seasons.
Second, I wouldn't be surprised if it went like this: Castiel tries to set a new order and allows the other angels to feel and think for themselves, because he has experienced it too. However, this will backfire on him. Of course, in the end everything will be fine again because [[Status Quo Is God]], but he will decide to leave heaven.
Or, he won't be able to connect with the other angels because he can feel, which will either drive him insane or cause him to follow Anna's path, i.e. ripping out his grace.
* Gabriel could feel too, didn't mean he had to rip out his grace. Did mean he took one long-ass vacation, though.
** Spending two millenia hidden among humans tends to do that to you. It was probably a survival tactic as well; good luck interacting believably with humans when you're the physical equivalent of :| .
 
== The entire apocalypse was engineered by God as an object lesson in forgiveness and brotherly love for Lucifer and Michael. ==
If we assume that God is, in fact, all-knowing, and that He had some plan that went beyond what the humans and even the angels on the show could comprehend, it's entirely possible and believable that the entire apocalyptic story arc, and maybe the entire series, were completely subject to His will. He created Sam and Dean and put them through all sorts of trials in order to hone their skills and their devotion to both each other and humanity. Think about it: Sam and Dean are so strongly devoted to each other that even the angels find it remarkable. {{spoiler|Gabriel}} tells them flat out in Mystery Spot that they are one another's greatest weakness, and everyone knows it--butit—but we've seen time and time again that they are also each other's strength.
 
What if God intended all along for the apocalypse to happen, for Sam and Dean to be tested to their limits and beyond...and to succeed? That's why He wouldn't intervene to stop events from taking their course, but also why He zapped them onto the plane during Lucifer's prison break, and why He resurrected Castiel, not once but twice. Cas learned a lot about humanity, loyalty, and faith in a relatively short time with the Winchesters. It's possible that God intended for Lucifer, Michael, and the other angels to have a chance to learn the same lessons, to forgive one another and come back into the fold. In a way, God was also granting the angels a chance at free will and at the redemption that they all craved; it's just that they didn't see it for what it was.
Line 395 ⟶ 401:
This also ties in nicely with the theory that {{spoiler|Chuck}} is God. If that's true, it allows God to be on the scene the whole time, subtly directing events and helping the boys out on occasion. For instance, when he lectures Sam about his demon-blood addiction, it's not so much a scolding as it is a subtle reminder that "you're better than this, Sam." He offers vital information that can't be obtained anywhere else (such as when he tells Dean the location of the showdown between Lucifer and Michael) and many of his conversations with the guys serve the purpose of subtly reinforcing their relationship and their own particular moral codes.
 
This Troper also likes this theory because it puts Sam and Dean back into the position of fairly typical mortals(rather than universe-breaking badasses) but does so in a way that doesn't detract from their legitimate awesomeness. They're still heroes, but, like everyone else, are ultimately playing roles that they don't fully understand in a divine and [[Good Omens (Literature)|ineffable plan]].
 
== At some point, Demon!Bela will appear. ==
Line 413 ⟶ 419:
* Well, Pestilense car is pretty damn crappy. Lets keep up hope for Death's Steed.
* And Death drives a beautiful off-white Cadillac El Dorado, so the whole "car chase of epic win" scenario is still possible.
* Original poster of this guess here. Maybe the chase will only be with Death. Dean will probably try to cheat him by finding another way of trapping Lucifer than by sacrificing Sam or by looking for a way to make him leave Hell, taking huge risks while doing so. Also, Death is the horsemen that we have the most chance to see again, except maybe Pestilence, but there's no way his Pinto can keep up with the Impala.
* {{spoiler|Jossed. Death willingly gave up his ring. What could have been...}}

Taking in count that Lucifer is supposed to be trapped there, it ''would'' explain many of the badfics (e.g. [[My Immortal]]).
 
== S6!Sam is not Sam. It's Lucifer ==
It was never explained why Sam wasn't crazycakes over being in hell, despite for a short time. Hence, it's not Sammy--SammySammy—Sammy is dead. If you're wondering how he got out, Shiva. He's the god of rebirth and redeath, his son is dead and was ''eating people,'' and he's a little ticked off at the brothers. Obviously he's pissed at Lu too, but he blames the bros for Ganesha's death.
* Or alternately, Sam is still possessed, [[Heroic Willpower|but has taken control somewhat.]] This accounts for some of his more mysterious actions. He's more or less is in the driver's seat, but Lucifer is still somewhat influencing him. The mother of all backstreet drivers.
* OR, Sam's soul is still in Hell, and the traits which make him human (empathy, compassion, etc) are stuck there along with it.
Line 462 ⟶ 468:

Line 468 ⟶ 474:
 
== Ben really is Dean's son ==
Ben is biologically Dean's son. Lisa didn't tell Dean the truth before because she had her suspicions about Dean's life and didn't want Ben drawn into that life (like [[Star Trek II: theThe Wrath of Khan (Film)|Carol Marcus]].) And in the year Dean was living with them, she didn't tell either of them the truth because she knew Dean would be pulled back to the hunter's life and didn't want Ben to go with him. Because there is no way that boy doesn't have some Dean genes in him.
* I believe quite the opposite is true about Lisa's attitude towards hunters. Lisa has showed nothing but respect for what hunters do. Perhaps, lying to Dean about Ben was her way of freeing him [[ItsIt's What I Do|to do what he does best]]. She could not risk Dean [[Honor Before Reason|choosing his son over the safety of the world]]. Lisa's stuck in a lie and it's only a matter of time before the truth comes out.
* Perhaps this IS true, and the only reason Lisa didn't inform him of this during their off-screen year after S5 is because she didn't want Dean to feel obligated... or something.
* Or maybe the kid is his, but at that point Dean was, in her own words, "that guy she spent one weekend with forever ago". She didn't really know anything about him, except perhaps that he was a bad boy who made a living under dubious circumstances. Not knowing anything about the guy, she might not have wanted to have this practical stranger upset the clearly good life she's made for herself and her son. From what she told Dean of Ben's "real" father, it doesn't seem like she's made the best romantic choices in the past.
 
Line 485 ⟶ 491:
 
== The Alphas are plotting to [[Take Over the World]] ==
The hunters would be the first line of defense against such a plot for world domination. The monsters are acting off pattern because their Alphas are commanding them to. They are prodding the hunters for weaknesses. Also, certain recent changes to the status quo (i.e. Heaven ''and'' Hell being in disarray from the loss of Michael ''and'' Lucifer) might be the window of opportunity these monsters have been waiting for. The Alphas, in all likelihood, [[Teeth -Clenched Teamwork|despise the thought of having to work together]] but know that [[Utopia Justifies the Means|the rewards would be enormous]].
 
== Death is the Alpha Reaper ==
Line 495 ⟶ 501:

== Sam got intentionally [[Blessed Withwith Suck]] ==
As he said in the latest episode ("You Can't Handle the Truth"), he's a better hunter than ever before because of his inability to feel. That first bit was the goal of some unknown entity, who didn't care about the second bit. The general jerkassitude represented by that reminds me of some of the angels, but other aspects make me not so sure of it.

== How Crowley became so powerful so quickly. ==
The thing about being the "King of Hell" is that it's not just a title.
The thing about being the "King of Hell" is that it's not just a title.<br /><br />It kind of works the same way like items works for humans. When you equip, say, a body armor and a gun you suddenly become much more 'powerful' in combat. It's not a case of any sort of gradual growth, gaining new skills or experience. When you're equipped you're simply much more powerful, instantly.<br /><br />I propose that a similar mechanism exists for titles in hell. So someone who is, say, "The Grand Inquisitor of Hell" isn't simply someone who has a lot of juice and can convince the other demons to call him that. Becoming the Inquisitor is similar to putting on a suit of body armor and taking a gun - except that the "items" are entirely supernatural in nature and non-physical. We can steal a word from [[Dresden Files]] and call them "mantles"<br /><br />So, this is what happened with Crowley. When Armageddon was over (or at least put on hold), he collected all those mantles from the major demons who died. He probably has Lilith's mantle (maybe something like "The Mother of Monsters", "The First Demon", "The Queen of Hell" or simply "The Alpha"), Azazel's mantle (whatever it was that gave him yellow eyes, maybe "Prophet of Lucifer" or something), Alastair's mantle (the "Grand Inquisitor of Hell") and his already-existing "King of the Crossroads". The mantle of "King of Hell" might also exist and if it does, he has it now.<br /><br />So, how did he do it? King of the Crossroads, as he's fond of reminding us. He probably suckered several humans into doing a deal for their souls. He convinced them to add a "locate mantle of X" to their deals and that was that. With his powers as King of the Crossroads, he might have been able to prevent other demons from using the same tactics.<br /><br />This gave him an unprecedented level of power as far as demons go. In all the history of demonkind, the mantles were divided among different demons. He is the first one to have them all - because frankly, with his current level of power he probably already ''convinced'' any other mantle-holders to give them to him. He might not be the most ancient and powerful demon around personally (though he is certainly in the upper leagues) but when combined with all the mantles that he collected, he now enjoys a truly terrifying level of power.
 
* Guess we're never going to find out now.

* It could just be Crowley's that good. He's strong enough to take out an entire nest of demons by himself, controls hellhounds roughly the size of small bears, and is clearly one of the smartest demons out there. It wouldn't be hard to imagine him wheeling, dealing, and killing his way to the top spot in the pit.

Gabriel wasn't bored when he decided turn back time and bring Dean back to life. Think about it: Gabriel left Heaven because he couldn't stand to watch his brothers fight and rip each other apart.

== The Impala is God. ==
Chuck was just a prophet, not God. And Chuck said the Impala was the most important thing in the universe.

== The Mother Of All is a [[Half -Human Hybrid]]. ==
After his brother Lucifer was caged in the pit, Michael sought out a mortal woman much like Dean did with Lisa after Sam's [[Heroic Sacrifice]]. Using his mighty archangel powers, the woman conceived of a child who, like the Nephilim of Biblical mythology, turned into a grotesque cannibal giant. Michael was forced to kill her but by then she had grown too powerful and it was only a matter of time before she found her way out of Purgatory. Fast forward ten thousands years ...

== Samuel Colt sold his soul ==
He built a gun that kills anything. The one people we've seen be capable of restocking it with bullets are demons. Obviously Samuel Colt was not a demon, because he built the iron Devil's trap. So how did he gain the knowledge required to build the Colt? Clearly, he had help. No demon would ever help a hunter make such a gun without anything in return, so he had to trade his soul and promise not to come after the demon he made the deal with.
* There's the possibility that he tortured demons for the information, but we've seen time and again that most demons are unwilling to give anything up unless threatened with death or Sam's super-duper demon powers (which makes sense, given how much time they spend in Hell anyways). Without the colt, Colt had no such leverage. The chances of him finding a demon that WOULD give in to torture is pretty low because prior to the beginning of the series, demons didn't show up all too often, as Bobby said, "1 or 2 a years, tops".
** More likely, he had help to create the gun from an archangel, maybe Michael, or God Himself. Or even ''more'' likely, from Death. After all, Death obviously has a connection to anything that, well, kills things, we know he likes things that even the odds and tend to bring balance (and the Colt definitely does that, putting humans and supernatural entities on a much more level playing field), ''and'' the Colt seems to be kind of like a slightly less powerful version of Death's Scythe, which Crowley said could kill ''anything'', no exceptions, even Death himself. Whichever it is, a gun that can kill anything in creation with only five exceptions, seems ''far'' beyond the power of any human, or even any demon, to construct.

Afterwards there will be no Heaven, no Hell, just... Nothing. The screen goes black and: cut to Chuck sitting in a beautiful room, much like the "greenroom" from the season four finale, a knowing smile on his face. Another voice-over by Chuck during the Winchesters' final hours is optional.
* Alternatively, the boys die and return to the [[The Matrix]]-esque Heaven as seen in Dark Side of The Moon. This has the benefit of it being a bittersweet ending: yes, they are reliving some of their greatest memories, but it's all fake, all an illusion.
* Alternatively alternatively, the show will end with the boys driving off into the sunset in the [[Cool Car|Impala]]. As they're driving off, we'll hear the last two words of dialogue on the show: "Dean: Bitch; Sam: Jerk".
* It would be kind of hard to end the show ''without'' Sam and Dean being [[Killed Off for Real]] because that is the only way to truly end it. Driving off into the sunset to hunt more monsters would feel sort of like a cop-out, like their story isn't completely over. Plus, don't they deserve a happy ending? As seen in the more recent episodes, Dean is tired of hunting and chances are, Sam is as well. They want out. Unfortunately for them, the only exit from the life of a hunter is death. Back to the happy ending bit, if they lived, they would spend their life hunting various supernatural creatures until one killed them. They wouldn't be able to have any sort of family or relationship because those always go downhill once monsters with a grudge find out. If they died, they'd go to heaven, and they could finally be at peace.

== Purgatory is inhabited by [[Eldritch Abomination|Lovecraftian monsters]]. ==
The trailer for "Let It Bleed" showed a manuscript by H.P. Lovecraft covered in blood. The souls of the monsters that have ever died go there because they are the spawn of a [[Cosmic Horror]]. Eve, the Mother of All, describes herself as being older than angels. If Purgatory is opened, the universe will be flooded with entities like Eve. And if just one of her species could create all the monsters on Earth, [[EndoftheThe End of the World Asas We Know It|imagine what a legion of them could do]].

== Eve is ==
Eve from [[the bibleBible]] it's just that obvious.
* What about The Mother of All is at all similar to Eve?
* Besides their name and function not much but my theory is that Eve was a normal human being until Lucifer altered her somehow a few thousand years ago. The reason Lucifer changed Eve was because she confronted him about what he did to daughter Lilith. So Lucifer turned her into the first monster in existence and Eve started creating monsters and somehow she got locked up in purgatory.
* This might've jossed your theory [http://www.ktla.com/videobeta/218ce044-ce7b-4d3b-a918-fa7cc8a42dff/Entertainment/Ben-Edlund-Supernatural-at-Paley-TV-Fest\]{{Dead link}}
 
== God (possibly in the form of Chuck), Death, and Eve (Mother of All) were the first sentient creatures to ever exist. ==
God's role is creation, Eve's role is providing conflict and introducing violence so that evolution can progress through conflict and change, and Death is the one who takes out the trash and turns off the lights when the party's over. We know that Death is [[Cosmic Entity|universal and ultimately going to reap God]], that [[Eldritch Abomination|Eve]] [[Eldritch Abomination|was around before the angels]] (or at least before Castiel), and that [[Creation Myth|God is an over-deity]] with unlimited power who can control anything (including putting back together flying pieces of flambeyed angel), and we know that all three are perfectly happy with the arrangement when it isn't messed up (hey, [[Shrug of God|Chuck looked pretty content at the end of season 5]]!). The three of them together established the natural order, and all three of them get ''really pissed'' - to differing degrees - when someone messes around with that natural order. This includes the angels. Of course, the apocalypse is really just something the angels concocted because Michael and Lucifer couldn't play nice, and they wanted something official to put down in the history books.<ref>Said history books ''could'' be the books that Chuck has been writing (the word of god, logos), which would make the Supernatural books the, uh, Torah... which makes for some pretty weird implications and the idea of which is probably offensive to like... twenty different religious subcultures</ref>. So they bribed Destiny to chalk up a script and tried to force humanity and the forces of nature to play along. God doesn't really care just as long as life keeps on going and creation continues, Eve doesn't really care just as long as you don't try to imbalance things too much (i.e. take all violent monsters out of the equation), and Death is just extremely pissed off with the angels A) because they've been fucking over the natural order since Sodom and Gomorrah, and B) because Lucifer had a hissy-fit and got mad with daddy so he chained ''[[Refuge in Audacity|one of the most powerful creatures in creation to a leash so it could do his dirty work for him!]]''<ref>Seriously, what did he think Death would do? Play nice when the spoilt brat is breaking the fine china?</ref> There's also the possibility that Death went to God and told him to keep his kid from smashing up the furniture, which was why God helped out with the Winchesters.
* So does that means they're the ''Supernatural'' verison of the Trinity?
 
== More theories about the angels vessels bloodlines ==
Line 629 ⟶ 645:
Similar to theory 2 above, but with a slight twist.
 
John and his Winchester relatives are descendants of Abel while Mary and all (Hunter) Campbells are from Cain. Since Sam and Dean's angelic bloodline was said to be tied all the way to [[Cain and Abel|Cain AND Abel]], this makes the most sense in the bloodlines of Earth's second pair of angsty brothers coming back together to create the vessels for the very first angsty brothers. It could also explain why the Campbells have all become Hunters -- HuntingHunters—Hunting is an unnamed part of the punishment described for Cain's descendants in [[The Bible]].
 
Since the Bible follows the descendants of Adam and Eve's third son, [[Replacement Goldfish|Seth]], it stands to reason that there are very few decendants of Cain and even less of Abel (since he died before he could have a ton of kids).
Line 635 ⟶ 651:
So, Abel's descendants can host Michael while Cain's can host Lucifer. This also explains why Adam was, as a Winchester only, able to host Michael but was never sought by Lucifer. [[What Could Have Been|But if Lucifer had picked one of those other Campbells...]]
 
* Cain and Abel might have only had a few ''children'', but after six thousand years, their number of ''descendants'' will either be zero or everyone on Earth; firstly because the Flood is mentioned in 6.20, so everyone on Earth is descended from Noah anyway (ETA: scratch that. I checked the Bible and, to give the SPN writers some credit, Noah is ''not'' a descendant of Cain or Abel, his ancestor is Seth. That actually works, provided one of his daughters-in-law is descended from Abel and another from Cain.) But even ignoring that: Dean and Sam have two parents, four grandparents, eight great-grandparents... take this back five or six thousand years and their ancestors encompass every member of the human race. [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Most_recent_common_ancestor:Most recent common ancestor|Just like everybody else on the planet]]. The only way the bloodline thing makes any sense is if the angels have been using to Cupids to selectively breed Cain and Abel's descendants with members of their own family (like in ''[[Preacher (Comic Book)]]''), finally leading to one Abel-descendant and one Cain-descendant. (Actually, given that we know the angels ''did'' get Mary and John together, that kind of makes sense...)
** Seeing that Cass claimed that the Bible got a lot of stuff wrong, it seems highly likely that the Cupids and other angels worked their mojo to make sure that everyone leading up to Dean and Sam worked out just right. They might have saved a Cain-descendant and Abel-descendant from the Flood for the exact purpose of keeping the bloodlines separate from Noah/Seth. They just had to make sure that there was at least one surviving member every generation.
 
Line 670 ⟶ 686:
5. Michael and Lucifer somehow escape and save them. They are ''STILL'' pissed at them for cheating them out of their epic fight.
 
6. The boys absolutely refuse to obey him right to his face. Hurt and angry, Cas decides to kill them. The boys close their eyes and embrace the coming pain. We see them explode! But then we see them, eyes still closed and out of harms way. They meet with [[One -Scene Wonder|Jesse]] from the season 5 episode "I Believe the Children Are Our Future". He's the one who saved them and faked their deaths to be momentarily safe from Cas. As it turns out, after he left his foster home, he was thinking about what Sam and Dean said, and he decides he really wants to use his powers for good. So he's been training to use his powers better. He's been watching them from afar for sometime. And [[Breakout Character|he wants to help them]] stop Cas. But he would only make a few appearances to help the boys out of tougher jams. He essentially takes over the position Cas left vacant.
 
7. It'll begin the same way as number 6. But instead of being saved by Jesse, the boys meet with a mysterious woman. She takes the form of Mary Winchester, Jess Moore, and Karen Singer, making the boys uneasy. She tells them she's not a demon, angel, or any other supernatural monster. She's really [[God]]'s mother, the [[King of All Cosmos|TRUE creator of the universe]]. God is one of her many children (which includes Death and Eve, see theory above). She tells them that God has "retired" after the Apocalypse has been averted (explaining why he didn't give Castiel a sign). Though the boys are skeptical at first, considering that all the higher beings they've encountered turned out to be jackasses. But, even though she was offended by the word "jackass", she assures them she's nothing like the angels or demons. She's very loving and caring to ALL her children. And she loves the [[Humans Are Special|humans deeply]] and doesn't want the Apocalypse to happen. She's disgusted by how the angels and demons act, always using the humans as cannon fodder. She takes over the "Cas" role and wish to help the boys stop Cas. But reasons known only to her, she cannot interfere, so she can only give out hints and tips to the boys.

**** Ah, sorry, have you seen Season Six? She's an antagonist late in the season. Basically, all the original monsters were born from her, making her the Mother of All Monsters.
** Jeez I know I'm in for a treat, and I thought you meant Gaia, Earth Mother Goddess
** To be clear [https://web.archive.org/web/20120522233412/http://www.geekpeeks.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Im-the-Mother-of-All.-Dont-kill-me-Poor-little-girl.jpg this] is what's happening.
** Original replier back again...another option just occurred to me; rather than the Mother, since she hadn't been introduced at that point (and since Season Six was a [[Post Script Season]], she probably hadn't even been thought of), it's possible that if Luci is immune to the Colt, Michael is too.
* I'd say the 5 are God (duh,) Death (even more duh,) Lucifer (confirmed,) Michael (because he and Lucy are sort of a pair,) and Eve, because being the Mother of All Monsters ought to come with perks like that.
Line 723 ⟶ 739:
 
== Season 7 will deal with a full-grown Anti Christ ==
Since the Supernatural verse doesn't have them as sons of the devil, that means there could be other demons (or just that one from "I Believe the Children Are Our Future") with children. In particular, Sam and Dean will face [[The Jersey Devil|the Jersey Devil]], son of a witch and a demon and one of the most famous monsters unique to American history. And it will be awesome.
* Well, the {{spoiler|Jersey Devil}} is the focus of an upcoming episode, but no word if {{spoiler|it's an Anti Christ}}.
 
Line 746 ⟶ 762:
 
== The "Boss" is Eve ==
Eve was dispatched of too easily. And it'd explain part of why The Boss wants the Winchesters dead so badly -- shebadly—she wants Revenge for what they did to her. Perhaps Phoenix Ash doesn't kill Eve, just sends her back to Purgatory. This makes even more sense, as we haven't seen the boss yet, meaning that they want to keep it a secret for some reason -- perhapsreason—perhaps because we already know who it is.
 
== The "Boss" is Urizen ==
Line 762 ⟶ 778:
They definitely read [[Television Without Pity]]. Part of it is the series being [[Reference Overdosed]] and using well-known fanspeak, but sometimes it almost exactly quotes trope titles:
* "Everybody Loves A Clown":
{{quote| '''Dean:''' Well, I know what you’re thinking, Sam: [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?|why did it have to be clowns?]]}}
* "Bloodlust":

{{quote| '''Andy:''' When I got my mind thing, it was like a gift. [[Superpower Lottery|Like I won a lotto.]]}}
* "Tall Tales":

Line 791 ⟶ 807:
They're {{spoiler|Gabriel}}'s children with human women or possibly pagan gods; thus, he is the Alpha Trickster.
 
== The {{spoiler|dead priest [[MotMonster Wof the Week]]}} from "Houses of the Holy" ==
...was actually a {{spoiler|fallen angel reborn as a human, like Anna. Dying triggered some of his angelic memories and abilities, which allowed him to manifest as a bright light, as well as explaining why he believed he was an avenging angel attacking evil-doers.}} At the end of the episode, he merely returned to {{spoiler|Heaven.}}
 
Line 815 ⟶ 831:
One thing I noticed back from series 6 is that Death had no reason to care about the souls (and the Leviathans) in purgatory, yet he went out of his way to help Dean and Sam by both giving Sam his soul back, trying to keep Sam sane, and by advising Dean on the importance and power of souls, telling them they are "digging at something", which he clearly has significant interest in.
 
Then at the beginning of season 7, he first informed the brothers about the Leviathans, and then (apparently) gave them the chance to put them back into purgatory, despite them seriously pissing him off and insulting him (which he has killed for before).
 
However, if he cared enough to go against the natural order by pretty much hacking into reality to bring another eclipse (needed for the door to purgatory), why did he not kill Castiel when he had the chance? and also why did he not simply wipe out the Leviathans before when god clearly wanted them dead?
Line 840 ⟶ 856:
 
== 5x04 "The End" is going to happen ==
Lucifer was right - they will always end up in the 2014!verse, no matter what choices are made.
 
Castiel comes back (or eventually becomes) more-or-less human. After acknowledging Hallucifer's presence, Sam either gets possessed by the real Lucifer through a link between vessel and angel, or goes so insane that he begins to act like Lucifer has possessed him. Then, Sam and Dean somehow get separated. The Croatoan virus makes a comeback, possibly after some debacle with the demons or directly because of Lucifer's presence. And thus, 2014 rolls around exactly like it does in "The End".
Line 862 ⟶ 878:
 
== Garth is Gabriel. ==
He was just a random guy in Gabe's possessable bloodline until Gabe faked his death-by- {{spoiler|Lucifer}}. Gabe wanted to help keep humans safe from [[Things That Go Bump in Thethe Night]], but he wanted to fly under the radar of Heaven (and possibly above that of Hell,) so he concocted a whole backstory and started Hunting.
 
Proof? You want actual proof? Here's a quote from "Party On, Garth": "Hey, I love [wine coolers]. Anything sweet."
 
== The Winchester Brothers are going to break the masquerade wide open. ==
What's Dick Roman's golden rule? That the humans don't become aware there are monsters in the world. So faced with a seemingly unstoppable invasion of Leviathans, the brothers, perhaps with Crowley's help, will expose the Leviathans to the world... along with demons, angels, ghosts, and everything else with claws and fangs. Season 8 will deal with this post-masquerade world, enabling the writers to recycle the standard Monster of the Week plots with the angle that ''everyone'' knows what's going on. Other predictions: the Ghostfacers will hit it big time, Hell will go legit, and the Winchester brothers will become either celebrities or deputized government agents.
 
Oh, and Season 8's big bad? ''Humanity.''
Line 878 ⟶ 894:
 
== Brady, Sam's pal from "The Devil You Know", had a great relationship with his family (at least before he got possessed) ==
[[Word of God]] is that Brady's full name is Tyson Brady, [[Last -Name Basis|thus making Brady his surname]]. In the pilot, Sam says that his family isn't exactly the Bradys. Since the guy with him might not know Brady personally, he (and the audience) mistook it for a [[Shout -Out]] to [[The Brady Bunch (TV)|The Brady Bunch]]. Why? {{spoiler|Because why ''not''?}}
 
== God really does help more than anyone knows ==
Line 889 ⟶ 905:
In the show, reapers seem to be Death's analogue to angels/fates, except that they're weaker and cannot take a vessel. Normally, their job is to harvest souls of the dead. So what if a reaper were to force itself to take a physical form, like an angel tearing out its grace? It would probably be decayed and starving, since they were never meant to have anything but an astral body. However, it would also explain why so few weapons work on them; because pretty much nothing so far has had an effect on reapers either (excluding the scythe). Also, Shtrigas feed on "life essence," which seems to be a more physical complement to the soul, and it makes sense that reapers would have knowledge of how to access the life essence.
 
== The three Gods with no speaking parts in "Hammer of the Gods" are: ==
* The blonde woman (seated next to Ganesh): Venus (Aphrodite)
* The guy in the tan suit(seated next to Odin): Apollo
Line 899 ⟶ 915:
Extremely tech-savvy, defies authority, ran away and changed her name, and did we mention she's a hacking '''genius'''?
 
== [[Half -Human Hybrid|Jesse]] used his [[Reality Warper]] powers to [[Ret -Gone|retroactively wipe all]] [[Unperson|evidence of his existence]] ==
Thus explaining why he was never mentioned again in-series: he erased knowledge of his existence from everyone's heads, from his parents to the Winchesters to demons. He's already [[Story -Breaker Power|ridiculously powerful]], so why not?
* He's only ridiculously powerful when Lucifer is on Earth. They said this in the episode, but it is frequently overlooked. Under the current circumstances I'd wager that his power is roughly equivalent to a trained Psykid or maybe a low-level witch.
 
Line 938 ⟶ 954:
 
== Gabriel created our world. ==
Or, at least the version in The French Mistake. Which, technically, is our world. The version of himself that was killed by Lucifer was a copy. Gabriel predicted that whole thing would happen. So, while his Supernatural!world self was getting [[Impaled Withwith Extreme Prejudice]], he was kicking back as the Pepsi Zero guy.
 
== Gabriel is the father of Jesus Christ ==
Line 952 ⟶ 968:
During "Dream A Little Dream of Me" Dean expresses his anger at what his father put him through. If we take into account the WMG's that say Gabriel is still alive, doesn't it seem like the kind of way he'd ensure that Dean and Sam were ready to face the things they have to? An older, battered and altogether more broken Dean is sent back through time to train his younger self in the things he will one day have to face on his own, becoming the thing he most hated, not a demon, but the father who made him what he was
