"Oh, yeah, we're besties. But that doesn't mean I'm gonna help little ol' you." The Empty Says
"Oh, yes, it does." Castiel Says, as the Enitity sighed.
"Ugh. You're no fun. Go get her, Pizza Man." The Empty Says
The Entity gestures over her shoulder, where a glowing ball of light grows and finally resolves into Ruby.
"Ruby." Castiel Says
"Where am I?" Ruby Asks
"You're dead." Castiel Says
"I remember. Are you dead?" Ruby Asks
"Almost." Castiel Says
"Oh. Lucky you." Ruby Says
"Ruby, I woke you up because I'm looking for an object known as the Occultum, and the angel Jo said you hid it somewhere in Hell." Castiel Says
"Oh, did she? Wow, that is so like her. Don't you think it's a little obvious for a demon to be hiding something in Hell?" Ruby Says
"I don't know. Sam, Elena and Dean, they're searching there now." Castiel Says
"Oh, Sam. How is the big lug? I liked him. We had a good thing until he killed me." Ruby Says
"Listen, I don't have a lot of time. Could we possibly just..w-when you went to Jo about the Occultum–" Castiel Says
"When I went to see her?" Ruby Says
Flashback to a different version of the story of their meeting that Jo told them earlier.
"She called me." Ruby Says
In the flashback, Jo opens a door letting Ruby in a room.
"Is this a trap? 'Cause I will mess you up." Ruby Says
"Wow. That's how much you trust me. Girlfriend-" Sister Jo Says
"I'm not your girlfriend. What do you want?" Ruby Asks
"Here's the deal. Lucifer and Michael are circling each other; there's gonna be a showdown. And I know you think you're in solid with Lucifer, but we both know if those two go at it, it's Apocalypse time, and nothing will be left standing." Sister Jo Says
"Maybe." Ruby Says
"And maybe things go your way. But maybe they go Heaven's, and if they do, everyone will need a Plan B. Look, you and I work well together when we have to. You are a powerful demon, and I am a good businesswoman. When the smoke clears, there'll be a new world order. We can make that work for us." Sister Jo Says
"You said we'd all be dead." Ruby Says
"We don't have to be. Not if we ride it out in the safest place that exists." Sister Jo Says
"I'm not following." Ruby Says
"The Occultum." Sister Jo Says
"The Occultum is a place?" Castiel Says
"A place... a thing...whatever you want to call it, it's powerful. Jo and I cut a deal, and I stashed it. I can tell you the location. And it's not in Hell." Ruby Says
"Does Jo know where it is? Because she might try to–" Castiel Says
"No." She Scoffs, "That girl really can't be trusted, but you can trust me if..." Ruby Says
"If what?" Castiel Says
"I'll help you on one condition. That you get me the Hell out of here." Ruby Says
"What?" Castiel Says
THE BUNKER
Back in the bunker library, the spell bowl flares to life and Sam, Elena and Dean reappear in bursts of blue flames. They see Cas slumped in the chair and look to Jack and Marley in alarm.
