A man calls a suicide hotline, but then hangs up the phone instead taking a gun and putting it to his head. He looks at what is assumed to be a picture of his wife and kid and drops the gun back into the dresser. A random guy shows up and zaps the man turning him into pink goo.
Castiel is working at a convenience store under the name Steve. While cleaning and stocking the store he sees the newspaper headline about the suicidal man. Cas calls the case in to Dean who heads out to Idaho.
Kevin translated the tablet into the dead language Elamite that no one can read because he couldn’t transfer it into English. The dead language is hard to translate but he deciphered one piece about falling angels in the tablets footnotes.
Castiel has been sleeping at the convenience store but plays it off to the manager as he was working late and just stayed at the store. She asks him out on a date and he agrees to it.
Dean goes to check on the scene at the suicidal man’s house. He finds out there were three other cases that had the same identical pink goo at the scene and in each case they were all unhappy people. The sheriff informs Dean the pink goo is a mix of hair, skin, blood and pretty much every part of a human being.
A girl at a high school is complaining about how her boyfriend dumped her and says she “could just die.” At these words the man from earlier who killed the suicidal man comes and zaps her like he did the first man.
Dean shows up at Castiel’s job trying to get Cas to go on a hunt with him. Dean gets a phone call about the high school scene and Dean convinces Cas to check out the scene.
Sam brings the Elamite writing to Crowley to see if he can decipher the language which he refuses to do. Sam threatens to give Crowley to Abaddon so Crowley tells Sam to bring him the paper with the language on it but instead of deciphering it he crumples it and throws it in Sam’s face.
Dean and Cas arrive at the school scene and Cas is overwhelmed by what he sees. Cas has seen this before in Heaven. He tells Dean about a type of angel were medics that used this method to kill angels that were dying from battle wounds. These angels kill anyone experiencing any type of pain or suffering.
Sam goes back to Crowley who says he’ll translate the language in exchange for a telephone call. Sam initially denies this request but goes to talk to Kevin about it. They decide to get proof that Crowley can translate the Elamite language before they give him his phone call.
Dean drops Cas off to his “date” and gives him dating advice. Cas walks into the house to discover that he was only the babysitter and is not actually going on a date with the manager. As soon as she leaves the baby starts crying. Cas trys rocking her and singing to calm her down, his rendition of “Believe It or Not” calms her down but the second he tried to put her down she started crying again. He feels her forehead and finds that she has a fever.
Crowley uses Kevin’s blood to make a phone call to Abaddon. Finally he gets through and finds out what Abaddon is doing to double the number of souls in hell. She is voiding Crowley’s contracts. After he ends his call he asks for the Elamite language translations so he can decipher them, saying he’s “a man of [his] word.” He finds out the spell can’t be undone and the angles are stuck on earth.
Dean gets a call from the sheriff telling him the first crime scene where the couple disappeared reveals only the wife’s DNA from the pink goo, which means her husband is still alive. Dean sees a picture of the husband and wife in front of his truck which was the same as the truck that pulled into Cas’ “date’s” driveway. Cas is going to take the baby to the hospital because of a fever when he opens the door and is met by the angel who has been killing humans.
The angel Ephraim says he won’t stop until he clears the planet of all suffering. When the baby starts crying Cas tells Ephraim he won’t let him touch her. Ephraim tells him he didn’t come for the baby but instead came for Castiel to end his suffering. Castiel keeps him talking while he draws the angel banishing sigil on the window but Ephraim discovers what he’s doing and breaks his hand. Dean bust in but is immediately knocked out by Ephraim. Castiel keeps the angel talking while Dean recovers himself and slides Cas an angel sword. Cas kills Ephraim with the sword.
Sam calls Dean to tell him they can’t put the angels back in heaven and asks if he’s going to tell Cas which Dean doesn’t. Cas tells Dean his concerns about helping the fallen angels but Deana tells him he and Sam will take care of the angels.
When Sam is cleaning up the supplies from the phone call he notices a syringe is missing and goes to check on Crowley. Crowley is seen with the syringe injecting Kevin’s blood into his body. What is Crowley up to? Is he plotting a plan to escape the bunker?
