Meg opened the door of her room and saw Dean sitting where she had expected Claire to sit. “What are you doing here?” she asked, acting calm. “And where’s Claire?”
“Oh, she’s with Sam” Dean replied. “She’s fine, by the way, no thanks to you” He got up and walked to Meg. “Seriously, Meg, what were you thinking?”
“Hey, for the record, this was her idea” Meg defended herself. “She said I should tell her mother I’m keeping her hostage in exchange for Jimmy and I just figured it would be a lot more convincing if I’d do it for real”
Dean shook his head, furious. “You finally have my trust” he said. “But you’re really close to losing it again”
“Like I care about your trust!” Meg exclaimed. “All I want is for Cas to come back and anything else doesn’t matter”
“And I want him to come back too, but we’re not going to kill anyone for that” Dean fired back.
“Really?” Meg scoffed. “And what do you think is going to happen when Jimmy gets here? What, you’re going to ask him nicely if he wants to get the fuck out of his own body, so Cas can get his life back? I don’t want to be a buzzkill, but I would say that’s a long shot”
“We’ll find a way” Dean replied sharp.
“I know a way” Meg said stubborn. “Jimmy has to die”

Cas beached on the street, far away from Rufus’ cabin. He wasn’t sure how to feel. He was angry, because Dean wouldn’t listen to him. Dean always thought he knew everything better. He was disappointed, because Dean had no faith in him at all.
He was so up in thought that he didn’t hear his name. But maybe that was because she didn’t use his real name.
“Emmanuel!”
Someone grabbed his arm and forced him to turn around. He looked at the woman. She looked familiar.
“Didn’t you hear me?” the woman asked. Cas stared at her. “Don’t you recognize me? It’s me, Daphne, your wife?”
Cas widened his eyes as he remembered her.
“Daphne” he said breathless. “How did you find me? What are you doing here?”
“Well, I hired a detective, I needed to find you” Daphne said. She searched in her pockets and conjured a big brown envelope. “I need you to sign these”
“What is it?” Cas frowned.
“A petition for annulment” Daphne answered.
