Castiel's voicemail: "You have reached the voicemail box of: I don't understand why, why do you want me to say my name?" Castiel presses random buttons.

"Cas, hey, uh, it's me. So we are in Blue Earth, Minnesota, and um, we could use a little help. I... hope you get this" Sam leaves a message.

Motel – Night

"I got your message. It was long, your message. And I found the sound of your voice grating" Castiel slurs.

"What's wrong with you? Are you...drunk?" Sam asks her.

"No! ...Yes"

"What the hell happened to you?"

"I found a liquor store"

"And?"

"And I drank it. Why'd you call me?" She asks him, almost falling over. Sam catches her.

"Whoa. There you go. Easy. Are you okay?"

"Don't ask stupid questions. Tell me what you need"

"T-there have been these – these demon attacks. Massive, right on the edge of town. And we can't figure out why they're—" Sam stutters.

"Any sign of angels?"

"Sort of. They've been speaking to this prophet"

"Who?"

"This girl, Leah Gideon"

"She's not a prophet"

"I'm pretty sure she is. Visions, headaches – the whole package" Sam informs her.

"The names of all the prophets, they're seared into my brain. Leah Gideon is not one of them" Castiel insists.

"Then what is she?"

Motel – Day

"We went out looking for – you alright?" Sam asks as he sees Dean.

"Yeah. It's – it's not my blood. Paul's dead" Dean tells him.

"What?!"

"Jane shot him"

"It's starting" Castiel tells them.

"What's starting? Where the hell have you been?" Dean snaps at her.

"On a bender"

"Did she – did you say 'on a bender'?" Dean stutters.

"Yeah. She's still pretty smashed" Sam informs Dean.

"It is not of import. We need to talk about what's happening here" Castiel interrupts them.

"Well I'm all ears"

"Well, for starters...Leah is not a real prophet" Sam tells him.

"Well, what is she, exactly?" Dean asks.

"The whore"

"Wow. Cas, tell us what you really think" Dean says shocked.

"She rises when Lucifer walks the earth. 'and she shall come, bearing false prophecy.' This creature has the power to take a human's form, read minds. Book of redemption calls her 'the whore of Babylon'" Castiel explains.

"Well, that's catchy"

"The real Leah was probably killed months ago" Sam says.

"What about the demons attacking the town?" Dean asks.
