065. twin reunion

Cas, Larissa, and Ophelia are sitting at the map table and Cas made himself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. The door opens, Sam and Libby getting back.

"Hey." Sam calls, walking down the stairs, Libby's hand in his.

"Tastes like... molecules." Cas says, putting the sandwich down.

"What? What are you talking about?" Sam asks.

"When I was human, you know, I had to eat constantly. It was kind of annoying." Cas says.

"Yeah, a lot of human things are pretty annoying." Sam says.

"But... I enjoyed the taste of food -- particularly peanut butter with grape jelly, not jam. Jam I found unsettling." Cas says.

"So, what? Now you can't taste PB and J?" Sam asks, sitting on the table next to Cas.

"No, I-I taste every molecule." Cas says as Sam dips his finger into the jelly on the bread and tastes it.

"Not the sum of its parts, huh?" Sam asks.

"It's overwhelming. It's disgusting." Cas says. "I miss you, PB&J."

"It's disgusting cause you're using grape jelly." Libby grimaces making Sam chuckle. Cas looks at her in confusion before standing up.

"We need to continue your healing. We're almost done." Cas tells Sam. He puts two fingers on Sam's forehead and starts to heal him, but his face grows concerned.

"What?" Sam asks.

"Nothing." Cas lies.

"You're a terrible liar." Sam states, pushing Cas' arm away.

"That is not true. I once deceived and betrayed both you and your family." Cas reminds.

"Okay." Larissa rolls her eyes.

"Okay, that's not the point." Sam says.

"It may not be the point, but it is a fair point." Ophelia comments.

"Cas, what's wrong?" Sam asks.

"I noticed something. It's, uh... it's resonating inside you." Cas says.

"What?" Sam asks.

"Something angelic." Cas says.

"Okay, uh, what the hell does that mean?" Sam asks.

"Maybe we should call Dean." Cas suggests.

"Don't bother. He doesn't answer." Ophelia gives a tight lipped smile before looking back down at her book. Larissa sympathetically looks at her before glancing at Sam who is also giving the teenager a sad look.

"Look, he wanted to go, and he's gone. We'll handle this." Sam says

"We can call Nat." Larissa suggests.

"She's on a--"

"She's not on a break." Larissa says, cutting her husband off.

"What?" Sam asks. Larissa winces, knowing she should've told him when he found out.

"She knew, too. She wouldn't lie to you, so... Dean kicked her out." Larissa informs.

"He what?" Sam asks, his expression turning angry. Larissa nods. He lets out a quiet scoff before getting up and quickly walking out.

"He kicked Aunt Natty out?" Libby frowns.

"Yeah." Larissa sadly smiles.

Libby and Cas both leave the room at some point, leaving Larissa with Ophelia.
