The ep gives us more mythology about the mark and Lucifer, personally i don't even know if i like it or not that the mark has become such a big part of the overall mythology. The stakes at the end of the plan are very high, the "fight" scene is disappointing tho.
If you love the supernatural and action packed episodes of this show, this one is a bit of a let down, again with the family crisis and the intervention, watching almost half an episode of Lucifer having it out with Chuck is tedious especially with the poor script. Watching half an episode of Castiel grimacing throughout the episode in order to show us that he is Lucifer is trying on the nerves. The getting together of all the enemies to put down an enemy is new logic to the show that makes no sense, strengthen a n enemy to kill and enemy? Anyway a small promise of a climax at the end as usual, not enough to save the episode.
One of the best episodes I've seen in this show. It's just playing on our biggest wishes and hopes throughout the whole timeline of Supernatural. Watching unexpected allies at work was probably the "5 minutes" that made the episode so beloved. On the other hand, if I had to watch this episode again, shock factor would be lower and it would be just run-of-the-mill good episode.
The scenes of God/Chuck, Lucifer/Castiel took my rating to this level. It was unbelievable STUPID. Taking this show to a level of pure absurdity!!! I can't STAND that the writers used the Chuck character as GOD. It was also really bad to use Castiel's character as possessed by Lucifer thus my rating.
There are additional problems with this episode. The red herring involving Rowena is too pat and does not work. But the big issue is a finale not a penultimate episode. The climax of the season occurs in this episode with the botched raid on Amara; it is one of the largest, biggest sequence in all the show's run and it works far better as season cliffhanger than week. It ends up setting up one of the worst finales in show's run next episode.

- GoofsWhen Amara was smited previously in O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2015) , Dean gets "smiting sickness" by driving within a couple miles of the impact site. Despite Sam and Dean being only 50ft away inside of a building when Amara was once more smited, they showed no signs of sickness, even when they stuck around until dawn.
