[ Engine roars ]

[ Glass shatters ]
Sam: So you're a what?

- You're, uh, English Men of Letters?
- British.

We wanna work with you.

[ Grunts ]
[ Grunts ]

Uh, Mick, is it?
[ Sighs ] My number.

What do we think?

Are we buying that Brit's whole
"let's be friends" routine?

Sam: No. No way.

The Winchesters are no better
than the monsters

they fail to control.
They need to be eliminated.



Well, we have Mr. Ketch
for that.

Mr. Ketch: I cleaned up
the Winchesters' mess.

As suspected, they couldn't
finish the job. [ Silenced gunshots ]

Man: Thank you, Mr. Ketch.

Crowley: Your dinner date
is loaded, single,

and possibly in delicate health.

Rowena: It's my chance to leave
behind monsters and demons

and moldy hideouts.

Crowley: Lucifer wearing
Vince Vincente.

You're... Kind of famous.

[ Bones crunch ]
Vince: Onward and upward.

[ Roars ]

Crowley: That's why he's jumping
from vessel to vessel.

Castiel: Me finding him is
my responsibility.



Cass, you're gonna want
some backup on this.

If you get Lucifer cornered
and find yourself in need,

I'm there.

Dean: Cass is chumming
it up with Crowley.

They're hunting Lucifer
together.

Crowley: Feathers and I are
all but inseparable.

Together again.

Yay.

[ Bell tolling ]

Woman on radio: And in the
unprecedented drought condition...

Farmers in the state worry
that the entirety

of next year's crop
could be lost,

driving up prices worldwide.

In other news,

police are investigating
the mysterious death

of billionaire philanthropist
Wallace Parker.

Parker was found dead
in his office late Tuesday,

his body heavily damaged...
Turn that off.

By an explosion of some ki...
[ Switch clicks ]

Better we stay focused
on the lord's work.

Wouldn't you agree?

Of course, your excellency.

Such a shame
about Mr. Parker.

I know he was a friend.

Not to mention,
one of our biggest donors.

Yes.

Okay, this has gotta stop.

All right, give me that.

Armani!
Okay, enough.

Let's have a look.

Ooh. Looks like somebody forgot
to put on his sunscreen.

This was Wallace Parker,

the very powerful CEO
of almost everything.

And apparently,
Lucifer's latest vessel.

Wasn't strong enough
to hold him.

Lucifer's not content
with slutting it

from one random vessel
to the next.

He's moving on to blue chips...

Celebrities,
captains of industry.

He just got
a lot more dangerous.

I agree with agent Zappa.

Oh, will you stop?

Dean: So, find anything?

Anyone powerful or respectable

who suddenly changed...
Or exploded?

Well, this is
pretty interesting.

This is the archbishop
of St. Louis

So?
So that was him three days ago.

And this...
[ Taps key ]

Is him last night at
the opening of a food kitchen.

Notice anything missing?

[ Taps key ]

[ Taps key ]

Yeah, the big mother of a cross
around his neck.

Exactly. And this morning,

his office canceled
all further public appearances

without comment.

Okay, so you're thinking
that, uh,

Lucifer blasted out of Parker

and into his buddy
the archbishop here.

Worth a shot.
Yeah.

[ Thunderclap ]

It's awfully quiet.

Yeah, I put in a dozen calls
to the chief of staff.

No one returned.

Well, we'll have a look around.

If it is Lucifer, we'll call the rest
of the Scooby gang. [ Button clicks ]

Okay, then, Jeff.

Usually, I give my hosts

I may need help fine-tuning
some... Protocols

on all the goodness

and public service that
I promised.

I'm... I'm happy to help,

We're appearing at...
At a series of fundraisers here

backed by a fantastic group

So I just focus

The team handles
the details.

Well, listen, Jeff,

this is all useful information,
of course.

But... If we're gonna
pull this off,

I'm gonna need a few more

People need to believe

One minute, we're talking
about the best barbecue.

I'm a Kansas City man.

Bill likes Memphis.

I stepped into the John.

When I came out,
he was on the ground.

I, uh, I tried CPR, but, uh...

I'm sure you did everything
you could, sir,

but it appears he had
a massive cerebral hemorrhage.

[ Whispers ] Oh.
We're gonna need an autopsy,

but I don't see any evidence
of foul play.

[ Mouths word ]

If you'd like to say
a few words, sir.

[ Departing footsteps ]

A few words
to the man upstairs, sir,

like you do every morning.

Yes.

Words.

Nothing we ever say feels
like enough.

Babies.

That's what we are.

Innocents.

All of us struggling to...

Walk upright with purpose
and... and pride.

[ Sizzling ]

And yet, we need "our father"...

To...

Be there when we fall.

Today, we lost a brother.

Tomorrow, we will continue
our work for the country.

Amen.
All: Amen.

You always know
the right thing to say.

[ Sizzling ]

[ Whoosh ]

Ugh. [ Sighs ] These pictures...
[ Typing ]

The level of violence,
it's completely unnecessary.

Lucifer doesn't like
to get messed with.

I guess when
the archbishop's priests

figured out
he was possessed,

they tried to keep it quiet,
do an exorcism.

I mean, not that
it would've worked.

[ Footsteps approaching ]
Lucifer blew town,

but not before he slaughtered
the entire staff.

So we were on the right trail.
Where's it go now?

I don't know.

Who won the Nobel Peace Prize?
Why don't we start there?

[ Paper bag rustles ]

[ Crow cawing ]

While we've been away
from from D.C., in Belaurus,

negotiations between
rebel forces and the government

have broken down.

We're recalling
ambassador Harkin.

Sir, is it time
to involve the U.N.?

Mm.

That or we can just
go ahead and nuke 'em.

[ Forced laughter ]

Well! Montroy fundraiser

We'll pick this up at dinner.

[ Indistinct conversation ]

[ Folder thuds ]

Sir.

Thought you might want to know,
the new poll numbers are out.

You're way up.
[ Aircraft hovering overhead ]

Officially the most popular
sitting President

in modern history.
Really?

Mm.

Hmm. That's impressive.

Uh, Otto... [ sighs ]

Take a little break.
Mm-hmm.

Was there something else?

[ Kelly breathes heavily ]

Ohh.
[ Chuckles ]

[ Exhales sharply ]
So amazing.

Yeah. [ Exhales deeply ]

It's almost like
I've never done that before.

[ Laughs ] You...

Oh.

[ Exhales sharply ]

You know, Jeff, I admit...

It makes things
kind of exciting

keeping this a secret.

I just wish

we could make how we feel
about each other...

Well, public.

Oh?

I know... [ sighs ]

People might not like it.

Public might not like it
because you're a widower.

Uh-huh. But...
But...

I know you've been lonely
since Louise died.

Mm.

And I know your feelings
for me are real,

because everything you do
is real.

I just love to think that...

Someday...

We could be a real couple.

Maybe do the wedding thing.

Maybe the baby thing.

Hmm.

[ Train whistle blowing

Good girl.
You're right on time.

Your majesty.

Keep this up and you could
actually earn back your soul.

What little tidbit
do you have for me today?

There was a death last night
that I ascribed

to natural causes, but...

It was anything but natural.
[ Crow caws ]

Did the bunker's warding
fail?

I just powered it down.

Crowley called, said he had
some big news about Lucifer,

whatever the hell
that means.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Wait a second.

So... so now Crowley can
just... What,

drop in whenever
he feels like it? [ Scoffs ]

I-I prefer keeping Crowley
at a distance. Long distance.

Not very charitable, moose...

[ Sighs deeply ]

Particularly since,
once again,

I'm saving both your asses.

So, as you know, I'm temporarily

persona non grata
in my own palace.

Palace?
Palace?

However, there are those
I still control. Operatives.

Crowley, can we just get
the damn news without the drama?

Can I get you
without the flannel?

No. Still, I endure.

What?

Did a little digging,
acting on a tip.

[ Taps key ]

And I think I know the identity
of Lucifer's newest vessel.

Oh, for god's sake.

Huh? Aha!

President
of these United States.

[ Aircraft continues hovering ]

You wanted to see me, sir?

Rick, something urgent's
come up.

Urgent and... Confidential.

Understood.

We have reliable intel

that two mentally unstable
individuals,

possibly cult members,

have imminent plans
to assassinate me.

What? Why?

Because I'm Satan.

They think I'm Satan.

Not metaphorically?

Mm. In the flesh.

Satan's not real.

Well... He's a symbol
for the simple-minded.

A-a comic book villain.

He's a bit more than that, Rick,
to many people.

I wasn't briefed on this.

Well, I'm briefing you now.

We've been sitting on it
until we had more facts.

Aside from
the obvious peril to me...

We'll keep it strictly
under the radar, sir.

I think the best way to do that
is to eliminate the threat.

Would you agree?

We could initiate
the approval process.

No. No.

We need to handle this
in the family.

Secret service only.

And as the head
of my personal detail,

you will head this up
yourself.

Of course.

I'm liking this job, Rick.

Hello. Mick Davies here.

Leave a mess...
[ Disconnects call ]

Even if Crowley does bring in
Rowena, the problem remains.

Lucifer can't be returned
to the cage inside his vessel.

His essence
has to be extracted.

Yeah. And Lucifer has found
the perfect safe house.

[ Typing ]
I mean, how do we even start

getting close
to the President?

Well, it helps
that he's not in D.C.

Well, he's, uh, actually
on a fundraising swing

through the midwest.

Yeah, right now, it looks like
his whole party...

Aides, secret service,
the whole circus... is staying

at an estate owned by
Ron forester,

the, uh,
hedge fund zillionaire.

It's right outside
Indianapolis.

But it is completely surrounded
by walls, security,

secret service, military.

Plan B?

He's got a hell
of a speaking schedule.

He's averaging
three events a day,

and he's got a gala dinner
on Friday night.

Well, at least he'll be
outside of the mansion.

Yeah, guarded like
the hope diamond. Plan C?

[ Sighs ]

What about us? Our...
Our feelings for each other?

That's why I've been
totally up front about Mona.

Mona?
[ Surf rolling ]

Mona Levin.

Mona Levin?

The heiress?
[ Sea birds calling ]

You've been seen her
as well?!

You know one has to keep
one's options open.

The heart knows
what the heart knows.

And what does your heart know
about me?

It knows that
it's fond of you.

But your credentials
were unverifiable.

Financial holdings,
royal ballet, none of it!

You had me investigated?!

You were scamming me!

Oh, there's the pot
calling the kettle black.

[ Clears throat ]

Ah. Finally.

Light starch.

I offered my heart
to a pauper

who was after
my nonexistent fortune!

Same as I did, sweetie.
I'm just being honest about it.

Who is this?
My latest fiancé.

A nephilim

It's the offspring

And that's big news?

Yes, but the power to
produce this is immense.

It's much, much greater
than a typical angel.

Lucifer.

W... Lucifer?

I didn't know he was dating.

[ Engine roars ]

Yeah, and hey, Crowley?

Uh, find out from your
government mole if there's

a girlfriend or a mistress
or a favorite hooker.

Someone we don't know about.

My instructions are

So, what? You've just been
following us?

Not at all. We're good dogs.
We only come when called.

And he called.

You what?

I-I didn't, uh...

Like I said, excitable.
And you're better?

I don't care about you one way or the other.
I'm not an ideologue.

And all you wanna do is help
these American hunters

to clear this country
of monsters?

We understand things are
different here.

We're eager to collaborate.

The British Men of Letters

We can offer expertise,

weaponry, skills.

I paint in many colors.

Quite.

have spent years

blending sorcery

For instance, we don't always
decapitate vampires.

Inefficient, really,
especially for large nests.

We irradiate them,

reorder their DNA.

Their own blood becomes
lethal to them.

Cool.

And what might you boys

Well, you want us
to trust you,

you're gonna have to
trust us first.

And that means?

So you're gonna pop Lucifer
out of the President with that?

I hope so.
Otherwise, we're all dead.

Then Rowena zaps him
back to the cage.

Of course, we gotta
get him here first.

Yeah. We need to get ahold
of this, uh, secret girlfriend

Crowley found out about.

This... Kelly.

Of course, she's in that mansion
