'Supernatural' Season 9 Spoilers: What Is Dean Winchester Thinking? Mark Of Cain Powers Explained, Will He Be Saved In Finale? [VIDEO]
Supernatural's Dean Winchester is on a killing spree courtesy of the Mark of Cain, and his latest attack may have cost Team Free Will a prime shot Metatron.
While fans will have to wait until the season finale to discover Gadreel's (Tahmoh Penikett) ultimate fate (who ever thought we'd actually be rooting for this misguided angel?), Lindsey McKeon (Tessa the Reaper) has provided a little insight into just what is compelling Dean's (Jensen Ackles) to hold onto the First Blade like it's the last life preserver on the Titanic.
"What this Blade is doing to him is giving him this sort of infatuated sense of self, sense of power, sense of ego, and he's really become addicted to and enjoying the killing aspect," McKeon explained to Entertainment Weekly. "In [the moment after Tessa dies he is] sad Tessa's gone and he feels for that, but in the next moment, there's some force that is beyond him that's overtaking him. And this is what Tessa realizes when she sees him with it which is why she basically [says] 'Dean this is trouble. How are you getting into this and why are you doing this?' So I'm sure you'll see more of that play out in the season finale."
