The CW has released the episode synopsis for Supernatural season 9, episode 10 “First Born,” featuring Psych favorite Tim Omundson.
Beware, spoiler-phobes; the synopsis contains spoilers for the outcome of episode 10, “Road Trip,” the first episode back from winter hiatus.
The official press release has the following information about the episode:
TIM OMUNDSON (“PSYCH”) GUEST STARS AS CAIN — Looking to reclaim his place as King of Hell, Crowley (Mark Sheppard) asks Dean (Jensen Ackles) for help finding “The First Blade,” the only blade that can kill Abbadon (guest star Alaina Huffman). Knowing he owes Crowley a favor for helping Sam (Jared Padalecki), and also wanting Abaddon dead himself, Dean reluctantly agrees and the two set off on a road trip. However, Dean and Crowley are completely unprepared when they find out who has the blade — Cain (guest star Omundson), the first son. Meanwhile, Sam is back at the bunker with Castiel (Misha Collins) who notices there is some leftover grace inside Sam. If they can extract it, they can use the grace to track Gadreel. The only problem is the procedure may do permanent damage to Sam. John Badham directed the episode written by Robbie Thompson (911).
We previously reported on Omundson’s casting; in the Supernatural world, Cain, also known as “The Father of Murder,” is a retired demon who once trained the Knights of Hell, the ranks of which Abaddon is the last. But while he quit his ways for love, he reappears to cause trouble for the Winchesters.
With Supernatural‘s love of brotherly stories, we’re looking forward to seeing how fan favorite writer Robbie Thompson twists the infamous Cain and Abel tale.
Supernatural season 9, episode 11 “First Born” airs Tuesday, January 21 at 9:00 p.m. ET on The CW.
