Supernatural (2005–…): Season 11, Episode 14 - The Vessel - full transcript
Dean convinces "Castiel", who is still Lucifer, to send him back in time to the last reported sighting of the Hand of God which could be useful as a weapon against Amara. Lucifer sees the potential in getting his hands on this weapon so goes along with it and sends Dean to 1944 to the fated submarine mission that sunk the Hand of God. Meanwhile, continuing his charade with Sam while they wait for Dean's return, Lucifer plans his next move.
Let us introduce you
to the men of letters.
It's a rabid group
of sanctimonious do-gooders.
It's a secret society.
The last true
beacon of light
in a world gone
topsy-turvy.
European team-- they were
active during world war ii.
Inducted in 1939,
part of a small delegation
that was sent to Europe.
We're legacies.
Time travel?
That's a reasonable plan?
What, angels got their hands
on some Deloreans?
How did I get here?
You tapped the power of
your soul to get here?
Freaking time travel, man.
The Thule society.
Right. They were Nazis.
Nazi necromancers.
Dark magic, mostly with dead people.
You can kill me, but you will
never kill all the Thule.
Uhh!
Nazi bastards.
Lucifer.
Bloody hell. Uhh!
Let's chat.
We want
to kill the Darkness.
We need
to kill the Darkness.
I've had two shots at Amara,
and I don't think I can.
I got it, Dean.
Es ist angekommen.
Ja, ich habe eine
militareskorte angefordert.
Naturlich, ich werde den
egenstand zu ihnen bringen.
Bitte,
es ist Mir eine grosse ehre.
Mein fuhrer.
The bed is cold.
Liebchen.
What is that, mon amour?
This is why I've come here.
And I thought you occupied
my country to meet me.
Mm-hmm.
You were a bonus,
Delphine.
Mm.
A treasure.
Ma petite collaboratrice.
But this...
This is what my country
has been waiting for.
Can I see it?
Naughty Delphine.
Mm.
Bitte.

We're out.
There was a half a bag yesterday.
I killed it. Hey...
Did you know the Nazis had
a special branch
devoted to archaeology?
A little early for Nazi trivia,
especially without caffeine.
It was called, uh,
the "Ahnenerbe."
There were sites
all over Germany,
and then as the Nazis
increased their territory,
they started popping up
in -- in Poland,
Finland, uh, North Africa.
Yeah, how is this more important
than our coffee situation?
'Cause I found something.
I mean, we need something --
magic,
a-a weapon strong enough
to give us a shot against Amara.
So I've been looking outside
the lore in history,
and I found this --
uh, "The Vichy Memorandums."
They were Nazi communications
that puzzle historians
to this day,
and they speak of
a superweapon obtained
by the Ahnenerbe,
said to be strong enough
to win the war.
Yeah? What was it?
Well, uh, these memos
refer to it as..
"The Hand of God."
I mean, that was sort of
a catchall term
for several objects he touched
on earth in biblical times,
but they're believed to contain
traces of his power.
Yeah, well, the Nazis believed
a lot of things.
Dean, Lucifer's caged.
God's M.I.A.
The only beings strong enough
to battle Amara are gone.
If we're gonna fight her,
what better way to arm up
than with an actual dose
of his power?
Okay, so you said the Nazis
got their hands on
one of these, uh..."Hands."
Right.
Well, if it was so powerful
it could win them the war,
why didn't it?
Because they lost it.
En route to Berlin,
it was stolen.
The Nazis searched
high and low for the thief,
but they never found
their prime suspect.
Uh, here.
Delphine Seydoux.
French mistress
to a high-ranking Nazi.
Thought to be
a French traitor
till she killed her German lover
and made off with the weapon.
Allied spy?
French resistance?
That's what the Nazis thought,
but their investigation led them
to a different conclusion --
that she was
"Un Femme de Lettres."
A Woman of Letters.
Uh, sir?
Would you like to hear
the latest soul numbers?
No, because I don't care.
How about an update
on Amara?
Well, the update is...
Well, that there is no update.
We still haven't found her.
Sir, if I may...
Since you've claimed the throne,
we could use some direction.
Any direction.
We could deploy a force.
Real boots on the ground,
shake the trees to find her.
W-with you leading the charge,
of course.
We have had a coward and a fool
at the helm for too long.
Perhaps it's time to...
Doggie wants to speak.
How dare you.
The impudence.
The lack of humility.
That's no way to talk
to your master...
Lucifer.
That's a good doggie.
Who knew the Men of Letters had
European chapters?
Maybe it wasn't
an entire chapter.
Just some assets, you know?
Yeah, and letting women join
way back in the '40s?
I just never
got the impression
that they were so big
on gender equality.
You know, it's right there
in the name.
Well, it was World War II.
Kind of an all-hands-on-deck
situation, you know?
Yeah, Rosie the riveter.
Hmm. Cool.
Here you go.
This report was written by
Clifford Henshaw,
a bunker-based Man of Letters,
back in 1943.
It's the right era.
But it's in French.
Well?
Hey.
So it's definitely about
Delphine.
Her name's at the top
of every page.
And check this out.
They're transcriptions
from transatlantic cables
between Clifford
and Delphine.
What do they say?
Uh, give me a second.
Web translation's
kind of buggy.
Seriously?
Dude, it's, like, noon.
Uh, well, you drank
all the coffee,
so what am I supposed to drink? Water?
Look at this.
They were making arrangements
to get the artifact
out of Europe to keep it safe.
Uh, Henshaw pulled
some strings
with a Man of Letters
in the O.S.S.
to requisition an active
U.S. submarine to transport
Delphine and the weapon
back to the states.
Back to here.
Wait, the bunker?
Yeah.
So it's been here
the whole time?
Uh...
No. Never arrived.
Uh, the U.S.S. Bluefin
came under German attack
midway through its trip across
the Atlantic.
The sub was sunk.
The ship and its contents
haven't been recovered
to this day.
Great. It's lost.
Or is it?
Well, yeah, I'd say so.
I mean,
tides took the wreckage.
Submersibles have been trying
to locate it for years.
I mean, if James Cameron
and his "Avatar" billions
can't find it...
Yeah, but...
We have something that
James Cameron doesn't have.
That's all of it?
Yes, sir.
The requested weaponry
from your crypts.
Does it...Please you?
Spare me.
How are your wounds, doggie?
They are...
No less than I deserve.
Aww.
You're scared of your master.
That's a good doggie.
Aah!
But it's an act.
I broke you, but, um...
Yep, I can still smell it.
You've got that delectable
little whiff of defiance.
You're just playing, huh?
Waiting for your moment
to retake the throne.
Am I right?
Yes, sir.
Well, then...
Tell me, uh,
once and future...
King of Hell,
you've been watching
my rule.
What treasonous thoughts
do you have
brewing in that little head
of yours, huh?
What are you really thinking?
Hmm?
The truth, sir?
Yeah.
♪
You're not strong enough.
You've had your weapons
delivered.
You realize
they won't be enough.
If you thought
you could beat Amara,
you'd be taking the fight
to her,
right now.
You're a clever
little doggie.
You're right.
At the moment, I-I may be
a bit underequipped.
Maybe defeating Amara was
a bit more of a team effort
than I led certain people
to believe.
You know, all that said...
I'm still your master.
Did I let you out
of that kennel too soon?
No.
No barking.
It's showtime.
Hello, Dean.
There were several
God-touched objects,
but it never occurred to me
that any had survived the flood,
let alone the 20th Century.
Do you think we can use it
against Amara?
It's perfect.
I can get you back there.
Without wings?
Cass, you can't even teleport.
Time travel's is a...
It's a whole different system.
Told ya.
So, uh,
these the last coordinates?
That's the Bluefin's last
transmission to shore, yeah.
All right.
Wait a second.
Cass, aren't there still risks
with time travel?
I mean, aren't there consequences that --
Sam...
This is the ideal scenario.
What?
That sub's a tin can floating
in the middle of the ocean,
doomed to go down.
You can't really mess
with history at 20,000 leagues.
So we get in, get the weapon,
get out. It's a milk run.
Well, t-that's not
a-a very good plan.
Well, if things get
out of hand,
then Cass'll just zap me
right back.
You?
You're not going.
I beg your pardon?
You need to stay here.
Stay here?
Just in case
things go sideways,
somebody needs
to be left standing
to take care
of the Darkness.
We can't risk us both,
and at the moment,
I'm the least valuable player.
You both know
that I can't kill Amara,
so the least I could do
is get the thing
that we need so that you can.
So you expect me to sit here
and ride the pine
while you and Cass
go play Jules Verne?
Yes. No. Uh, who?
I won't let him
out of my sight.
You'll stay by his side
the entire time?
I will.
Sam...
Let me do this.
Okay? I need to do this.
Be safe.
When am I not?
Let's do this, Cass.

Bon voyage.

Cass?
Cass?
See, I enlisted
to sink German ships.
You're up.
Let's go. Vacation's over.
Now we got zip running patrols
in the bay.
Now captain's got us going
the wrong direction?
To run some mystery mission
for some broad?
Tell me how that
makes sense.
I wouldn't worry about it.
Get some rest.
You know I can't rest.
♪
Cass?
Why...
Wait a second.
Where's Dean?
We made the leap.
He got on. I didn't.
What?
I couldn't make it past
the hull.
1996?
Uhh!
Where's Delphine?
Where's the broad?
I-I-I don't know
what you're talking about.
Someone must have warded
the ship.
Delphine. It has to be.
I mean, she's protecting
the weapon, right?
Cass.
Just go back to their last port
before she boarded,
leave a message
so Dean knows.
Where?
Where would Dean see it that
the crew wouldn't?
He's as likely
to find the warding
as he is any message
I'd leave.
Then send me.
You got Dean past the hull.
Right.
We'll double-down on what
screwed us the first time.
You're really bringing
your "A" ideas today.
I can't believe I lost it.
Him. Mm.
Can't believe I lost Dean.
Well, it's up to him now
to find and clear the warding.
No. We can help.
There's got to be something
in -- in -- in magic
or angel lore.
You know, some way to clear
the sigils from the outside.
Cass...
Don't worry.
We'll bring him back.
Look out.
Coming through.
Coming through.
Uh...Sir.
When can I smoke?
When it's your turn,
I'll let you know.
Surely some of you boys take
breaks in the engine room?
Captain wants you stayed put.
Let me guess. He fears
I would distract his men?
Does not want a skirt
roaming the decks?
Give me the light.
But, ma'am, uh...
You're wearing pants.
Rich, ain't it?
Frog's sittin' pretty
like Queen of Sheba,
getting room service
in the wardroom,
and I can't even gripe 'cause...
Well, you seen that dame?
The gams on her?
Yeah. Yeah, she's a hottie.
Yeah, those gams, huh?
Who are you?
Delphine...
You might find this
hard to believe, but --
Not a soul on this ship
knows my name,
so I repeat, who are you?
- Coming through!
- Hey!
Excuse me, sir.
I'm a friend
of Clifford Henshaw.
I'm a Man of Letters.
That's him.
That's the guy. Captain.
Sit down.
Okay, I'm --
He took my clothes,

Captain James Dearborn?
My name is Dean Winchester,
and I am on a mission
from the future,
the details of which
I am not at liberty to discuss.
But know this --
within the hour,
a German destroyer will find
and attack this submarine,
and you will go down.
Okay, you've said your piece.
Let me tell you what I think.
Captain...
I think you're a soldier
that's gone A.W.O.L.
You've hopped a ride home,
and this cockeyed story
is some loony attempt
to keep your cover as a civvie.
That, or you're a spy.
Deciding which? I'll leave that
to the court martial.
I need to speak
with this man alone.
Not a chance.
Captain, there are things,
things about this mission
that you don't know.
Flash Gordon here
will remain under guard
until we reach the shore.
Gladly.
What if we don't
reach shore? What if he's right?
The odds of a German attack
from a surface ship,
this far west,
hunting down a lone submarine?
Captain?
Sonar's picked up a surface ship
on a steady bearing, closing.
Understood.
Harris, back to your station.
Giraldi, watch our guest.
Yes, sir.
The Germans,
they've come for it.
Delphine, the warding
on the hull? The sigil?
That's not like any
I've seen.
You're certain of the identification?
Yes, sir.
Uh, 36B German destroyer,
3,000 yards in closing.
Bearing 0-9-0.
Clear the bridge.
Clear the bridge!
My mentor
in the men of letters,
he taught me the symbol
before he died.
World Series, 1944.
Go.
Um...
You're from the future.
Tell me, who won?
Um, the, uh, the Rangers.
The Rangers?
He believed it would keep me
and the artifact safe
on our journey...
Who are the Rangers?
...from supernatural
interference.
And angelic interference.
Angels? They are not real.
Who are the Rangers?
Look, kid, I don't follow
baseball, okay?
Yeah, and angels are real.
In fact, one of them
is my ride off this ship.
Now look, the warding that you
put up to block the magic,
it must've blocked him, too.
I cleared the one.
If there's any more,
we gotta clear those, too.
Otherwise, I'm stuck here.
Okay, then.
The next president.
Delphine, you wanted the weapon
to be at a Men of Letters
safe house, right?
I'm from the bunker.
That's how I knew how
to find you,
from your communication
with Henshaw.
Now if you clear the way,
I can get it there for you.
And that's why you came,
to protect the object,
the weapon?
You gonna answer my question?
Eisenhower, okay?
No. Uh...Truman.
Now would you please
shut up?
No.
This sub is going down.
But the allies do win.
But from Man of Letters
to Man of Letters?
I'm fighting a war
in the future.
It's not like your war.
It's big.
Biblical, end-is-nigh big.

I think I have something.
"The spell of gathering."
It's an incantation used
to "focus the power of
celestial beings" -- angels --
"against all drawn forms
of evasion."
This spell was designed
to clear all mystical
or occult blockages.
I mean, this is
highly theoretical magic.
It's never been used before,
but it sounds like it could work.
Do you have the ingredients?
Uh...
All but one.
That's why it's never
been used before.
It requires the power
of an archangel.
Well, Sam,
we may as well try.
We don't have time
for long shots, Cass.
Even at full power,
you're not strong enough.

That's the hand of God?
Doesn't look like much.

Oh, so full-on "Raiders."
That's...
Okay.

so nicely.

Sir, it's not for you.

Go ahead.
Hello, mein liebchen.
It is not possible.
I killed you.
A little advice, Delphine.
If you want a friend
of the Thule to stay dead,
burn the body.
A word for the captain.
You may have noticed
you are up against a warship
and a crew possessing,
let us say,
extraordinary abilities.
And you have taken damage
that you cannot recover from.
So I offer you a choice --
surface now, relinquish
the girl and her cargo,
and I can assure you
and your men
the highest of P.O.W. treatment.
Or you can protect her,
and we will depth charge
you and your boat
right into the seabed
and recover the cargo ourselves.
You have three minutes
to surrender.
I don't expect you
to understand, but this cargo,
the Germans can't have it.
You need to believe me.
Our orders were to protect you
and your cargo.
We wouldn't even consider
a surrender.
You had better reconsider.
Killing me is your only way off
this ship.
Maybe not.
Teach me how to use it.
It's the power of God.
Maybe I can use it to save you,
save the sub.
And your war?
I want to help you now.
Two minutes, Captain.
You save the ship,
get us to the surface,
and then what?
The power of God
will consume you,
and you'll have merely
brought the weapon
closer to the Nazis' grasp.
We are supposed to die.
Let us do it with a purpose.
How long can you keep
the boat steady?
Not long. And once they resume
their attack --
Give me every second you can.
Delphine, what are you doing?
One minute.
I'm going to get you home.
And I'm going to get
you and your men
your first German ship.
No, no.

You have to fight, Cass.
Eject him now!

It's taking all my strength
to keep him from killing you.
And besides, we need him.
No, Cass, we don't.

We're out.
There was a half a bag yesterday.
I killed it. Hey...
Did you know the Nazis had
a special branch
devoted to archaeology?
A little early for Nazi trivia,
especially without caffeine.
It was called, uh,
the "Ahnenerbe."
There were sites
all over Germany,
and then as the Nazis
increased their territory,
they started popping up
in -- in Poland,
Finland, uh, North Africa.
Yeah, how is this more important
than our coffee situation?
'Cause I found something.
I mean, we need something --
magic,
a-a weapon strong enough
to give us a shot against Amara.
So I've been looking outside
the lore in history,
and I found this --
uh, "The Vichy Memorandums."
They were Nazi communications
that puzzle historians
to this day,
and they speak of
a superweapon obtained
by the Ahnenerbe,
said to be strong enough
to win the war.
Yeah? What was it?
Well, uh, these memos
refer to it as..
"The Hand of God."
I mean, that was sort of
a catchall term
for several objects he touched
on earth in biblical times,
but they're believed to contain
traces of his power.
Yeah, well, the Nazis believed
a lot of things.
Dean, Lucifer's caged.
God's M.I.A.
The only beings strong enough
to battle Amara are gone.
If we're gonna fight her,
what better way to arm up
than with an actual dose
of his power?
Okay, so you said the Nazis
got their hands on
one of these, uh..."Hands."
Right.
Well, if it was so powerful
it could win them the war,
why didn't it?
Because they lost it.
En route to Berlin,
it was stolen.
The Nazis searched
high and low for the thief,
but they never found
their prime suspect.
Uh, here.
Delphine Seydoux.
French mistress
to a high-ranking Nazi.
Thought to be
a French traitor
till she killed her German lover
and made off with the weapon.
Allied spy?
French resistance?
That's what the Nazis thought,
but their investigation led them
to a different conclusion --
that she was
"Un Femme de Lettres."
A Woman of Letters.
Uh, sir?
Would you like to hear
the latest soul numbers?
No, because I don't care.
How about an update
on Amara?
Well, the update is...
Well, that there is no update.
We still haven't found her.
Sir, if I may...
Since you've claimed the throne,
we could use some direction.
Any direction.
We could deploy a force.
Real boots on the ground,
shake the trees to find her.
W-with you leading the charge,
of course.
We have had a coward and a fool
at the helm for too long.
Perhaps it's time to...
Doggie wants to speak.
How dare you.
The impudence.
The lack of humility.
That's no way to talk
to your master...
Lucifer.
That's a good doggie.
Who knew the Men of Letters had
European chapters?
Maybe it wasn't
an entire chapter.
Just some assets, you know?
Yeah, and letting women join
way back in the '40s?
I just never
got the impression
that they were so big
on gender equality.
You know, it's right there
in the name.
Well, it was World War II.
Kind of an all-hands-on-deck
situation, you know?
Yeah, Rosie the riveter.
Hmm. Cool.
Here you go.
This report was written by
Clifford Henshaw,
a bunker-based Man of Letters,
back in 1943.
It's the right era.
But it's in French.
Well?
Hey.
So it's definitely about
Delphine.
Her name's at the top
of every page.
And check this out.
They're transcriptions
from transatlantic cables
between Clifford
and Delphine.
What do they say?
Uh, give me a second.
Web translation's
kind of buggy.
Seriously?
Dude, it's, like, noon.
Uh, well, you drank
all the coffee,
so what am I supposed to drink? Water?
Look at this.
They were making arrangements
to get the artifact
out of Europe to keep it safe.
Uh, Henshaw pulled
some strings
with a Man of Letters
in the O.S.S.
to requisition an active
U.S. submarine to transport
Delphine and the weapon
back to the states.
Back to here.
Wait, the bunker?
Yeah.
So it's been here
the whole time?
Uh...
No. Never arrived.
Uh, the U.S.S. Bluefin
came under German attack
midway through its trip across
the Atlantic.
The sub was sunk.
The ship and its contents
haven't been recovered
to this day.
Great. It's lost.
Or is it?
Well, yeah, I'd say so.
I mean,
tides took the wreckage.
Submersibles have been trying
to locate it for years.
I mean, if James Cameron
and his "Avatar" billions
can't find it...
Yeah, but...
We have something that
James Cameron doesn't have.
That's all of it?
Yes, sir.
The requested weaponry
from your crypts.
Does it...Please you?
Spare me.
How are your wounds, doggie?
They are...
No less than I deserve.
Aww.
You're scared of your master.
That's a good doggie.
Aah!
But it's an act.
I broke you, but, um...
Yep, I can still smell it.
You've got that delectable
little whiff of defiance.
You're just playing, huh?
Waiting for your moment
to retake the throne.
Am I right?
Yes, sir.
Well, then...
Tell me, uh,
once and future...
King of Hell,
you've been watching
my rule.
What treasonous thoughts
do you have
brewing in that little head
of yours, huh?
What are you really thinking?
Hmm?
The truth, sir?
Yeah.
♪
You're not strong enough.
You've had your weapons
delivered.
You realize
they won't be enough.
If you thought
you could beat Amara,
you'd be taking the fight
to her,
right now.
You're a clever
little doggie.
You're right.
At the moment, I-I may be
a bit underequipped.
Maybe defeating Amara was
a bit more of a team effort
than I led certain people
to believe.
You know, all that said...
I'm still your master.
Did I let you out
of that kennel too soon?
No.
No barking.
It's showtime.
Hello, Dean.
There were several
God-touched objects,
but it never occurred to me
that any had survived the flood,
let alone the 20th Century.
Do you think we can use it
against Amara?
It's perfect.
I can get you back there.
Without wings?
Cass, you can't even teleport.
Time travel's is a...
It's a whole different system.
Told ya.
So, uh,
these the last coordinates?
That's the Bluefin's last
transmission to shore, yeah.
All right.
Wait a second.
Cass, aren't there still risks
with time travel?
I mean, aren't there consequences that --
Sam...
This is the ideal scenario.
What?
That sub's a tin can floating
in the middle of the ocean,
doomed to go down.
You can't really mess
with history at 20,000 leagues.
So we get in, get the weapon,
get out. It's a milk run.
Well, t-that's not
a-a very good plan.
Well, if things get
out of hand,
then Cass'll just zap me
right back.
You?
You're not going.
I beg your pardon?
You need to stay here.
Stay here?
Just in case
things go sideways,
somebody needs
to be left standing
to take care
of the Darkness.
We can't risk us both,
and at the moment,
I'm the least valuable player.
You both know
that I can't kill Amara,
so the least I could do
is get the thing
that we need so that you can.
So you expect me to sit here
and ride the pine
while you and Cass
go play Jules Verne?
Yes. No. Uh, who?
I won't let him
out of my sight.
You'll stay by his side
the entire time?
I will.

So...
So...
Cass.
Yeah.
Yeah, what do we do?
What else?
We hunt Lucifer,
trap the bastard,
and save Cass.
Like I said,
Lucifer may
be in control now,
but Cass may not come back
willingly.
I mean, he chose it.
No.
No, not possible.

No. Story for another day.

Hey, the, uh...
The German ship
that sank the Bluefin,
what happened to it?
It went down.
Unlike the sub,
its wreckage was found.
Um, there was a giant hole
that'd been ripped through
the entire thing.
Something must have hit
the fuel tanks and exploded.
But it burned. Sank.
