"Nothing." Castiel Says

"Yes. That's right. Nothing. Nothing but Empty. And you are soaking in it. Angels and demons, you all come here when you die." He Says

"Every angel that ever died is here?" Castiel Says

"Yes, sleeping an endless peaceful sleep. You know I... I was sleeping, too. Hey, uh, since we're pals, there's something I've gotta know. I've just gotta ask. Hmm. Why are you awake? 'Cause fun fact—in all of forever, nothing ever wakes up here. I mean, ever. Ever. And second fun fact—when you woke up, I woke up, and I don't like being awake. So...what's up, smart guy?" He Says

"I don't know." Castiel Says

"Well, think!" He Says

"The Winchesters. Sam and Dean, they must've made a deal." Castiel Says

"No. No, no, no. Not with me, and I'm—I'm the only one that has any pull here. Not Heaven, not Hell, not G-O-D himself. So think harder." He aggressively pokes Castiel's forehead "Rack that perky little brain of yours." He Says

"Stay away from me." Castiel Says

"Okay, fine. I'll rack it for you." He Says

The Cosmic Entity puts a hand on Castiel's head, he screams in pain.

Dean walks back into the room after checking Mia's alibi.

"All right. Alibi checks out." Dean Says

"What?" Sam Says

"Yeah, I'm surprised, too." Dean Says

"Okay. Well, if you're not doing this, who is?" Sam Asks

"Oh, God. I think I know." Mia Says, then moves to take a box from drawer behind her.

"Hey." Sam Says

Mia takes out a photograph of a man, she shows it to the boys.

"His name's Buddy. When we got together, I was young and stupid. He's a shifter, like me. The only one I'd ever met other than my mother. But he liked hurting people." Mia Says

"Did he hurt you?" Jack Asks, Mia nods.

"I left. Changed my face, my name. Buddy wouldn't just kill people. He'd ruin their lives. He said he liked to see the look on their face when they realized they had nothing left. What I'm doing here... I know it can't make up for what...what he...what we did, but I'm trying." Mia Says

"If Buddy is doing this, he's targeting your patients. So who else has access to this office, your notes, your appointments?" Sam Says

"Patients and staff are in here all day." Mia Says

"If you had to pick one." Dean Says

"Uh... Tom, my assistant." Mia Says

"I'll check it out." Dean Says

"I'll come with." Jack Says

"Uh..." Sam clears his throat, he rolls his eyes. "Fine, Whatever." Dean Says
