Yay! I am glad that you enjoyed it!! There was a lot in this chapter I've waited a long time to get to. This is sort of a coming-into-himself story for Dean, so him getting and keeping the faith is a big deal. And I have long thought Sam was much smarter than Lucifer, and if he is strategic about being smart (like he was in that poker game), he has the capability of one-upping him.

The payoffs are on their way in the next two parts. I hope they're satisfying!

Glad you are still enjoying!
