Trivia
Castiel says his vessel was ripped apart on a subatomic level by an Archangel. This could either refer to Raphael who vaporized Castiel at the end season 4, or Lucifer who did the same at the end of season 5.

Goofs
Sandra tells "Jimmy" that she is denying his request for custody of Claire. A social worker, even one running a group home, does not have the authority to decide whether or not a parent can be granted custody of their child. This can only be done by a family court judge, although her opinion on the matter would be something that would carry a lot of influence with a judge.

Quotes
Dean Winchester: Whoa. Hey, Miley Cyrus, settle.
Claire Novak: Eat me, Hasselhoff.

7/10

This use to be a horror anthology.

Towards the back end of the series there are way too many episodes dealing with melodramatic relationships among the characters. Cas trying to make peace with Claire is the focal point of this episode and while that story is engaging it is not horror. And it is not why I watch the show. This episode-like a lot of them in the later seasons-feels too much like a soap opera when the show should be about ghosts and ghouls. I think a more creative writing team could have introduced Claire in a much different way-perhaps she made a bargain to be a vessel for an angel who was also pissed at Cas?- and concept could have been folded into the show better.
