Meet the New Boss is the season premiere of Season 7. It aired on September 23rd, 2011.
Castiel (guest star Misha Collins) doesn't kill Sam, Dean and Bobby (guest star Jim Beaver) but warns them not to interfere in his business. Assuming his new role as God, Castiel sets out to right some of the wrongs in the world. Dean decides they should bind Death (guest star Julian Richings) and order him to stop Castiel, but the former angel is ...
Picking up where the Season 6 finale, The Man Who Knew Too Much, left off, Castiel, having proclaimed himself God, orders Sam, Dean and Bobby to "bow down and profess your love unto [him], [their] Lord or [he] shall destroy [them]". The trio look at him, dumbstruck. At last, Bobby begins to lower down until he is on his knees and urges Dean and Sam to do so. Still looking at Castiel in amazement, Sam and Dean start going down on their knees but Castiel stops them. He tells them to straighten up as all they have in their heart for him is fear, not love or respect. Sam tries to talk to him but he silences him, telling him that he literally "stabbed [him] in the back". Dean promptly launches into speech and begs Castiel to be the better man but the latter replies that "the Castiel you knew is gone". He then goes to taunt Dean, calling him a "brave little ant" and telling them that he does not need to kill them as they are now insignificant in his eyes and they were once his "favorite pets".
Castiel then sarcastically asks Sam how he is feeling. He replies that he is "fine" but Dean starts yelling at Castiel telling him that he promised to make Sam better. However he replies that he said he would do so if they stood down, which they hardly did. Giving them a caveat, he then teleports away. Sam's nose starts bleeding and he falls to the floor, crunching glass under his hands. He has flashes of his time in Hell. Dean immediately goes to his side.
Meanwhile, Castiel is in Heaven, saying how anybody who sided with Raphael will be punished. He tells the remaining to accept him as their new God, since "[their] father left a long time ago". He says that he thought that the answer to the chaos in Heaven (after the averting of the Apocalypse) was free will but now he sees that they need a "firm hand", a "father". He tells them he is now their Father and to be obedient to him as his "children" or "this will be your fate". All around him, we can see dead angels littered on the ground. "It is a new day on Earth and in Heaven," he says, "Rejoice". Dean is in the Impala, fixing the roof, a little frustrated. Bobby comes to find him and they discuss Sam before switching to "God part deux". They can't find any sign of Castiel but they know that he will definitely surface sooner or later. However, they don't have any weapons or knowledge on how to deal with him as there aren't any books out there with the information. On a final note, Dean tells Bobby that he will "fix this car", pointing at the Impala "because that's what [he] can do" and that when Sam wakes up, "no matter what shape he's in, [they] glue him back together too" as they owe him that. Bobby agrees with him.
Taking a break from fixing the car, Dean is in the kitchen when Sam walks in and he is a little surprised that he is "walking and talking". Sam tells him that he is quite good apart from a headache and that he is just as surprised as Dean that he's doing fine. Sam asks Dean about the Castiel situation and he invites Sam to come help with the car while he fills him in. As Dean walks out, Sam hears some noises and turns to look around but doesn't see anything. He is a little freaked out.
At a church called Lady of Serenity, a man is talking to the assembly about the state of modern societies. Just as he says that "someone has to speak for God", Castiel walks in, telling him that "who says [he] speaks for God" and informs him that he is "utterly indifferent to sexual orientation" but on the other hand, he "cannot abide hypocrites like [him]". The man, a Reverend, is flustered and tells him to stay quiet but Castiel tells him to tell his flock where his genitals have been before he spoke for God." When the man asks for his identity, Castiel simply states "I'm God". The people begin to mutter. A man sitting in the pews makes to rise against Castiel but the latter looks at him witheringly and he promptly suffocates and thuds down on the pew.
"And he who lies in my name shall choke on his own false tongue and his poisonous words shall betray him. For I am the Lord, your God..."
