Point Of No Return

Tropes

• Action Prologue: It seems like the episode is starting off quietly in a bar. Oh wait, there's Zachariah there. Then Michael appears in his true form, causing earthquake-like vibrations and causing all the humans in the room to catch on fire. Light Is Not Good indeed.
• Beware the Nice Ones: "Word to the wise: don't piss off the nerd angels."
• From a Certain Point of View: Because Zachariah is a manipulative ass.
• He's Back: The second Dean flashes that smirk of his we all know he's finally come back to his senses.
• No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Technically, Cas probably did hold back a bit, since Dean didn't die instantly, but he sure beats the hell out of him.
• You Cannot Grasp the True Form: While true in every episode with Angels, especially in this episode with Michael as he kills several innocent humans in the beginning when talking to Zachariah. Considering he is supposed to be the Big Good in God's absence, this is one of the first signs that despite his fancy speech in 5x13, he is as much of a self-righteous dick as any other angel and view humans as nothing. Also near the end of the episode.
