Except now someone is trying to set things straight by killing all the passengers' descendants, which amounts to about 50,000 people. A little research at Bobby's reveals that they are up against one of the three Fates, Atropos, from Greek mythology. The easiest way to stop her would be to make Balthazar go back and re-sink the boat, restoring the original timeline. But since Ellen and Jo are alive in this universe, nobody wants to do that--especially because Ellen is the only thing keeping Bobby from complete breakdown following Rufus's death. Sam and Dean attempt to catch Atropos by tailing a known target, but that fails when he is hit by a bus. Then Atropos nearly kills them in a giant explosion. Castiel zaps them out of the building at the last second.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: To the viewers, a world where the ''Titanic'' never sunk is a major thing. In this new timeline, without that sinking, the ''Titanic'' becomes just another once-great ocean liner later overwhelmed by more advanced ships and no one remembers it. Thus, when the brothers try to figure what's happening, the mention of the ''Titanic'' means absolutely nothing to them.
