Stranger in a Strange Land is the season premiere of Season 14. It aired on October 11, 2018.
Sam enlists everyone's help in trying to track down Dean, who can literally be anywhere. Meanwhile, Castiel may be in over his head after meeting up with an unreliable source. After being drained of his grace in season 13, Jack is adjusting to life as a human, learning new skills and figuring out how he fits in to this world of hunters.
Three weeks after Michael took over Dean, the archangel visits Jamil Hamed, a muslim man praying to Allah. After revealing himself, he asks him the same question that he has been asking leaders, holy men, and murderers all over the world; what does he want. Jamil says he wants peace and love but Michael accuses him of lying saying if he had wanted peace he would not have abandoned his friends to die in Syria and if he wanted love he would not have cheated on his wife. He flings the man back and states he finds humanity not worth saving.
Sam returns to the bunker where Mary, Maggie, and the other Apocalypse World hunters are taking on cases and looking for Michael with Sam their appointed leader. Ketch is in London and Castiel is in Detroit looking for leads to find Michael and Dean though so far all efforts have been unsuccessful. Jack is training with Bobby and struggling to learn to fight and cope without his powers though Bobby assures him it takes time to learn.
Castiel meets with Kipling, a demon, demanding any information Hell has on where Dean and Michael are. After mocking Castiel and being unfazed by the Seraphim's threats, Kipling reveals all the other patrons are disguised demons who attack and subdue Castiel.
Anael still posing as faith healer Sister Jo, is confronted by Michael who asks her the same question he's been asking; what does she want. Anael though perturbed by Michael's appearance and confused as to why Dean would say yes, answers that she wants various expensive trinkets. Michael accuses her of lying and tells her he knows she wants love and family calling it very human and disappointing. He reveals he knows that the number of angels in this world is extremely low and he had considered helping but believes they are not worth saving either.
In the bunker, Mary tells Sam that someone has woken up - revealed to be Nick, Lucifer's old vessel. He is alive and dealing with the aftermath of hosting Lucifer.
Sam then gets a call from Kipling on Castiel's phone demanding that he come alone. Kipling tells Castiel that someone asked him what he wanted and when asked he had no idea. When he took time to think about it, he decided he wanted everything.

•Crossroad Demon (Crowley, mentioned only)
•Demons (Kipling, Kipling's Henchmen)
•Nephilim (Jack Kline)

•The episode picks up three weeks after the events of Let the Good Times Roll.

•Nick previously appeared Sympathy for the Devil.
•He made an appearance as Lucifer's unconscious vessel in Family Feud and Let the Good Times Roll.
•Demons were previously featured in Bring 'em Back Alive.
•A vampire was previously featured in Breakdown.
•The episode was watched by 1.49 million viewers and got a 0.5 rating.
•This is the least watched season premiere of the series.
•This is the third season premiere to hit the below 2 million viewer count with Out of the Darkness, Into the Fire (1.94) and We Need To Talk About Kevin (1.85) being the first two.
•This episode marks Castiel's 10th year anniversary on Supernatural.
•The title of the episode is a reference to the 1961 science fiction novel of American author Robert A. Heinlein about Valentine Michael Smith, a human who comes to Earth.
•It also might a reference to Alternate Michael's status, as a visitor (stranger) from the Apocalypse World, who is in the main universe, which at least for him is a strange land.
•When Castiel met with Kipling, he was under the impression that he was meeting the demon alone, before the latter revealed the bar was filled with his demonic backup, previously unbeknownst to the Seraph. This shouldn't be possible, as angels can see demons in their true form, without even requiring conscious effort, as in Season 6, Castiel could see the true face of Meg and other demons, even when he had no memory of being an angel.
•Some of Kipling's Henchmen disappear after Castiel's initial capture. A few of the demons seen attacking Castiel are missing during the later fight scene with no explanation given for the drop in number.
•Its possible that Castiel managed to kill a few before actually being taken down, or that they were taken down outside by Mary and Bobby off-screen.
•The presence of a living Nick contradicts the fact that the vessel dies along with the angel when it is killed. This Lucifer's vessel suffered many fatal injuries, such as being shot in the head (Abandon All Hope...) and stabbed in the heart (Let the Good Times Roll), so there was no way Nick's soul could remain in his body after Lucifer's death.
Oct 12, 2018 · Verdict. Dean's possession by Michael offers Jensen Ackles a chance to explore new and fascinating dimensions in his performance, creating a Michael who is creepy but undeniably compelling.
