 * 1) "Meet The New Chief"- Having gained an incredible increase in power by absorbing the souls of Purgatory (the afterlife of monsters) in the previous season finale, Gabriel  (Misha Collins) appoints himself the new God and sets out to right some of the wrongs in the world, but is increasingly disturbed by the entities from Purgatory that are proving difficult for him to control. Adam Barnes (Wes Bentley) Ethan Barnes (Paul Wesley) and Mitch Johnson (Hugh Laurie) ) enlist the help of the demon Crowley (Mark A. Sheppard) in securing a spell to summon Death (Julian Richings) and bind him to their will so that they can use him to stop Gabriel. However, Gabriel  intervenes and breaks the binding spell. Death decides not to punish Ethan, Adam and Mitch  for binding him and instead reveals to the group that the entities Gabriel  is struggling with are the Leviathans, God's first creations. They had been locked into Purgatory to prevent them from eating the rest of God's creations. After Gabriel  finds that he has lost control of himself and slaughtered a group of people under the control of the Leviathans, he goes to Adam, Ethan and Mitch for help, and they help him send all the souls he had consumed back into Purgatory. However, the Leviathans remain in Gabriel's  body and assume complete control, revealing that they have killed him from within. Meanwhile, Ethan struggles throughout the episode with psychological fall-out of the "wall" in his mind that had been protecting him from his memories of torture at the hands of Lucifer and Michael in Hell, having been torn down by Gabriel. Ethan  begins hallucinating and sees Lucifer (Mark Pellegrino), who tells him that he was never truly saved from Hell; what has transpired since the fifth season finale "This Is It"  is all an elaborate illusion controlled by Lucifer designed to psychologically torture Ethan by giving him false hope before dashing it.
 * 2) "Hello Cruel Earth"- The Leviathans realize that they can't stay in Gabriel's  rapidly destabilizing body and so walk his body into the local water supply and disperse there, possessing civilians who ingest or otherwise come into contact with the water. Seeking a steady food supply of humans, they infiltrate various human establishments. When Mitch responds to a distress-call from Sheriff Jody Mills (Kim Rhodes), he discovers that one of these places is Sioux Falls General. Meanwhile, Ethan  continues to see Lucifer and questions if the world he sees is real or if—as Lucifer claims—he is still in Hell. Lucifer urges Ethan  to kill himself in order to end the illusion, but Adam helps Ethan overcome his hallucinations by distinguishing between the pain of real-life and the tortures of Hell. When the brothers return to Mitch's house,  they find it burned to the ground with Mitch  conspicuously absent, leading them to fear the worst. The Leviathan Edgar (Benito Martinez), having been sent to kill them and Mitch, attacks them and though they manage to temporarily stop him by crushing him under a car, Adam's  leg is broken and Ethan doesn't respond to Adam's  frantic attempts to wake him up after Edgar knocks him out with a pipe. While being carted off in an ambulance, both brothers receive a shock: Ethan  is still seeing Lucifer and starts to seize, and Adam  learns that the ambulance is taking them to Sioux Falls General Hospital.
 * 3) "The Girl Next Door"- After being sprung from Sioux Falls General Hospital by a perfectly alive Mitch, Adam and Ethan  join him and lay low for three weeks while Adam's  broken leg heals. In that time, Ethan  has still suffered hallucinations, but has kept quiet about them. While collecting food, Ethan  discovers the return of an unknown serial killer and takes off on his own to find her. In truth, the killer is a Kitsune, a monster who removes the pituitary gland in the brain as nourishment. Ethan  eventually tracks down the monster as an old acquaintance, Amy (Jewel Staite), who years ago he had a crush on while hunting Amy's mother. When Ethan  confronts Amy on the deaths, she reveals that she has a son who needed fresh meat in order to survive an illness brought on by harvesting dead bodies. As Amy had helped protect and defend Ethan, even killing her own mother, Ethan lets her go. Adam  manages to catch up to Ethan  and get the truth to his disappearance, and urges Ethan  to find Amy and kill her. Ethan refuses,  and acknowledges Adam has been treating him like a hand grenade, and emphasizing that he is managing his hallucinations and atoning for his past actions. Adam  agrees to stop badgering him, but later tracks and kills Amy in front of her son because he believes that Amy would have killed more humans in the future. Adam  doesn't kill the son who hasn't killed anyone, but warns that if the son kills anyone, he will. The son promises that the only person he will kill is Adam  Throughout, the Leviathans are shown to maintain an eye on the various rocker aliases of the brothers, using the aliases to catch up to them.
 * 4) "Defending Your Existence"- While investigating a series of murders in Dearborn, Michigan, Adam and Ethan learn that the Egyptian god Osiris is responsible for the killings. A god with nothing but revenge on his mind, Osiris is putting random people on trial for any mistakes they've made in the past and then promptly killing them if they're found guilty. Upon sensing Adam's  guilt, Osiris puts him on trial with Ethan becoming Adam's lawyer. But both Ethan and Adam are stunned when Osiris calls a witness, someone they thought they'd never see again: Jo. Jo however, tries to assure Adam  he had nothing to do with her death. Osiris's second witness is Ethan,  and he again tries to convince Adam that he had nothing to do with how his life turned out. Ethan then calls Adam to stand, and Osiris then poses a question to him, "Does he (Adam)  want Osiris to call the final witness? Or would he like to hear the verdict?" Adam  chooses hearing the verdict, leaving Ethan  stunned, as he doesn't know who this last witness is. Osiris then turns Jo into a vengeful spirit and forces her to try to kill Adam , however, just before she can, Ethan stabs Osiris with a ram's horn, thus saving Adam. The episode ends with Ethan  telling a quizzical Adam  that although he (Ethan)  has done a lot of bad things, he has paid his dues (with Hell), hence feels no more guilt.
 * 5) "Shut It, Dr. Phil"- Adam and Ethan  find cases of individuals meeting gruesome deaths in Prosperity, Indiana. Several of the crime scenes, however, contain ancient Romanian coins, acting as hexed objects. The brothers learn that each victim was connected to Donald Stark (James Marsters), a wealthy businessman, philanthropist and pillar of the community. While Donald assures the brothers that the business deal he and the victims were in had nothing to do with their deaths, Ethan  searches the house and discovers that Donald's wife, Maggie (Charisma Carpenter), is a powerful witch who is currently separating from Donald. In the process, though, Maggie is killing people connected to 'helping' Donald set up a fling with one of the victims. Heading to Maggie's house, Ethan and Adam  learn that Donald's personal assistant is next, and manage to save her before Maggie's curse kills her. Later on, however, it is revealed that Donald himself is a witch, as he uses his powers to destroy Maggie's auction paintings and decapitate her best friend. When Ethan and Adam  realize this, they wait for the two to meet at Donald's house, then try to kill them using a spell with chicken feet. The spell fails, and Ethan suggests they counsel the witches on their failing marriage to prevent them from killing Adam and himself. Although they manage to counsel the witches, they are summarily thrown around and beaten for seeming to side with the other party, until Adam  is able to say that Donald never tried to have a relationship with his receptionist. The two witches reconcile their love, and Adam and Ethan  leave with their lives. At the hotel, however, Ethan and Adam  are confronted by one of the Leviathans, who had been tracking them for days. After almost killing Ethan, the Leviathan is rendered unconscious by a spell from Donald, who had dropped by to save the brothers' lives (initially) from Maggie's coin curses. Adam and Ethan bind up the Leviathan for transport to Mitch's, in order to determine how to defeat the new monsters.
 * 6) "Slash Fiction"- Adam and Ethan are framed for a series of murder-robberies by two Leviathans that take the forms of the Barnes brothers. Mitch  tries to figure out a way to kill the Leviathans using the one they had captured, while Adam and Ethan take refuge with a surveillance expert, who gives them temporary identities to evade authorities. The brothers try to stop the Leviathan pair and track them across the country, discovering that the Leviathans are committing the crimes in every town the brothers have visited since Ethan  left college. Meanwhile, Mitch  continues in the course of finding a way to stop the Leviathans, discovers that decapitation works. However, with the head in close proximity, it eventually re-attaches itself to the torso. The brothers eventually find the Leviathans in Iowa but are arrested by local law enforcement. Mitch  gets a visit from Sheriff Jody Mills, who offers to clean up the cabin and cook some food for Mitch. While cleaning, however, some soapy water spills onto the Leviathan, causing serious burns. Mitch  gives the hostage Leviathan's severed head to Jody, telling her to dump it. Soon after, Adam, given a phone call, contacts Mitch and manages to learn how to at least stall the Leviathan. The local sheriff eventually helps Ethan and Adam  when he sees the Leviathan eating one of the officers and turning into Ethan and Adam. Ethan,  in an interrogation room, is confronted by the Leviathan Adam , who reveals Adam's  killing of the kitsune, Amy. Adam  and the sheriff manage to decapitate the Ethan Leviathan, and then the Adam Leviathan  shortly after, keeping the heads with them to prevent re-attachment. Afterward, however, Ethan confronts Adam about Amy's death, telling him he can't talk to him right now, leaves Adam  and sets forth alone. Meanwhile, one of the Leviathans, disguised as an FBI agent, contacts his superior - a man named Dick Roman - about the recent failure. Crowley then appears to Dick in an effort to build a partnership, but Dick harshly turns Crowley down, considering demons to be even more pathetic than humans, and hinting that he wouldn't mind wiping them off the face of the Earth.
 * 7) "The Channeller"- Adam and Ethan  randomly meet each other when they separately start on the same new case, and realizing it would be easier to work together, reconcile to solve it. They discover that an angry spirit is killing off resident mediums in Lily Dale, New York, the most "psychic" town in America, but with a town full of people claiming to be summoning spirits, they have some trouble finding the true medium who's controlling the ghost. Adam and Ethan  believe they've found the ghost, Kate Fox when they find her giving visions of people's deaths to them, however, the killings continue after they put her to rest and they realize she was actually trying to warn people as her sister is the true ghostly culprit. While Adam  holds off the ghost, Margaret, Ethan locates the psychic, Jimmy Tomorrow, a pawnshop owner. Ethan  is forced to kill Jimmy in self-defense, but is able to salt and burn Margaret's bones and put her to rest, saving Adam and her future victim. Ethan and Adam reconcile their differences over Adam killing Amy and leave town, once again hunting together.
 * 8) "It's The Seventh Season, Time For A Wedding"- While Ethan deals with someone from his past, Adam  is forced to team up with a laid-back hunter, Garth, and ends up in a bizarre situation. It has been a few months of work and Adam and Ethan  are on their annual trip to Vegas, however, Ethan leaves Adam to go camping. Adam  gets a text from Ethan from his phone  that asks him to come to a church, and finds that Ethan  is getting married to Becky Rosen. Adam is surprised and worried that Ethan might not be thinking straight, but he also finds another piece of disturbing news; people in the town are dying "freaky deaths". As it turns out, Becky has been giving a love potion to Ethan, obtained from a demon in disguise of a Wiccan, who is making deals and calling them in early. However, as this demon is making a deal with Becky, Adam, Ethan  and Garth come busting through the door. The demon is trapped, but reveals that he has a minion named Jackson who frees him and the two gain the upper hand until Becky manages to kill Jackson with Ruby's Knife, after which the Crossroads Demon is overpowered. Before Adam can kill him, Crowley arrives, having been alerted to the demon's plans by Jackson. He tells Adam  that he will rip up any deals made by his rogue demon, and in exchange he wants to take the rogue demon back to hell "to make an example of him." He tells them about Dick Roman and the reason that they haven't recently faced any demons is because they have been too busy hunting down Leviathans, whom he has started to hate. In the aftermath, Ethan  and Becky get an annulment and Ethan  points her towards Garth as a new love interest.
 * 9) "How To Win Family And Influence Monsters"- Following up on a possible sighting of the 'Jersey Devil', Adam, Ethan and Mitch  attempt to figure out what monster is out killing campers in Hammonton, New Jersey, while staying off the grid to avoid being tracked by the Leviathans. During their research, Adam  tries a new Turducken burger at a local burger joint, after he and Ethan  interview the forest ranger, who seems rather unfazed about the recent killings. The three hunters decide to hunt down the creature, coming across the remains of another ranger who went missing recently. Calling in the 1st ranger, he is also taken by the mystery creature; the creature is eventually shot by Mitch. The hunters soon learn that the monster is actually a vicious, hyperadrenalized human-zombie. As they discover this finding, Adam exhibits similar 'stoned' symptoms as the forest ranger had. Eventually, Ethan and Mitch y realize that the cause behind Adam's mind-dulling (and that of most of the burger joint patrons) is the Turducken sandwich, which ends up secreting a grey substance similar to what was within the hyper-zombie. Following the meat to the supplier, the hunters inadvertently discover the base of operations for the Leviathans. It is discovered that the Leviathan were working on a food additive designed to render humans complacent and mindless, potentially for ease of world domination. However, the leader, Dick, appears and closes the project down because the adverse side effects - zombified humans - made headlines, which is something Dick wants to ensure does not happen to keep humans in the dark about their presence. He also dispatches the lead scientist Leviathan, Dr. Gaines, by placing a bib around his neck, and forces Dr. Gaines to eat himself. Mitch, watching everything, is then attacked by another Leviathan and brought to Dick, who reveals that he plans on eating Mitch  in the future, but plans to use him to lure in Ethan and Adam.  The brothers break into the facility and free Mitch , spraying down the Leviathan with Borax to incapacitate and stall them. They then make their escape, with Dick attempting to shoot at the van. Seemingly safe, the brothers discover, to their horror, that Mitch  has been shot by one of Dick's bullets.
 * 10) "Deaths Entrance"- Mitch spends the majority of the episode in a coma, making his way through a network of his own memories, while a reaper follows him in an attempt to secure Mitch's soul. Aided by a representation of his old friend Rufus, he learns that in order to break free of the dream state he must confront and relive his own worst experiences. It is revealed that shortly before he was forced to kill her, Mitch  broke his wife's heart by refusing to have children, motivated by a fear of becoming like his own abusive father. Mitch  is determined to get a cryptic combination of numbers to Adam and Ethan  in the real world, and eventually confronts his memory of the night he, as a child, shot and killed his violent father. Telling the memory of his father that he ended up with two wonderful sons and that he did not allow the childhood abuse to ruin his life, he manages to emerge from his coma long enough to write the numbers on Ethan's  hand, upon which his heart stops. Inside Mitch's  head, he relives one last memory of a night with Adam and Ethan as the dream world around him fades away, and the reaper tells him to make a choice: to let his life go, or stay, and become a ghost. The reaper's watch ticks ominously as the screen cuts to black.

However, Ethan  starts to see Lucifer (Mark Pellegrino) again and continues to mock Ethan  complaining about boredom and causing terrifying illusions to get Ethan to talk to him. Adam and Jeffery end up finding the demon's old hideout, as well as Nora's son, who is being held captive. It is revealed that Jeffrey, having harbored a serial killer nature, desperately wishes to reunite with the demon who possessed him so as to continue killing and becoming even more powerful, and required Adam's  blood for the power summoning spell. Ethan, eventually accepting Lucifer's help, finds this out by threatening Nora, who was forced to help Jeffrey when she learned her son was kidnapped. Jeffrey is successful in summoning the demon, though it chooses to possess Nora's son, stating that it succeeded in turning Jeffrey into a killer, and Jeffrey did not need him anymore. Ethan intervenes and manages to trick the demon into stepping into a Devil's trap, while Adam kills Jeffrey, who was intending to stab the demon.

 * 16) "Out With The Old, In With The New"- After a ballerina is found dead from dancing herself to death in Portland, Oregon, Adam and Ethan  look into the case and discover the ballet slippers she wore were cursed. While collecting the slippers, Adam touches the slippers, and begins to be drawn to them, much to his embarrassment (as the slippers attracted those interested or practiced in ballet). Before the slippers take their hold, Ethan and Adam  find the antiques dealer who sold the slippers, and multiple empty curse boxes, as he had sold three other cursed objects. The brothers race to retrieve the cursed objects, although they fail to save one woman, who drinks steaming water from a cursed tea kettle and kills herself. After locking away the cursed objects, the dealer reveals that his mother collected the objects (presumably being a hunter), and was recently killed in a car crash after selling her store to a realtor named Joyce, who has recently been buying up several properties in town. Getting the paranoid Frank to dig into the company and its subsidiary, Adam discovers that it is a Leviathan front. Meanwhile, Ethan, tired from forced sleep deprivation due to Lucifer haunting him, inadvertently attracts the attention of Joyce's assistant, George, while getting a coffee. George then follows Ethan to the antiques dealer. The Leviathans then set up a trap, forcing the dealer to say he touched a cursed object to lure the brothers to the store. Once there, the monsters attack the brothers. However, George, tired of Joyce's belittling behavior and reckless impatience, subtly aids Ethan and Adam  in beheading Joyce, gleefully planning to eat her. Due to their shock, George briefly describes to the brothers that the only real way to kill a Leviathan was to eat them (or force them to eat themselves, via 'bibbing') and that in this situation, he means them and the people of the town no harm. Adam and Ethan then discover that the properties were bought to make way for a research center dedicated to curing cancer, bewildering them as to why the Leviathans would be helping humans. Heading to Frank's trailer with the cursed objects, the brothers find the trailer wrecked on the inside, with blood sprayed everywhere.
