Blade Runners is the 16th episode of Season 9. It aired on March 18, 2014.
Dean is frustrated when he can't reach Crowley (guest star Mark Sheppard), who has promised to find The First Blade. When Crowley finally calls Sam and Dean, he tells them he fell off the wagon and has been injecting human blood and needs their help. To make matters worse, he had a demon (guest star Rebecca Marshall) helping him find blood, but she...
At the Bunker, Sam is researching the Mark of Cain, while Dean is frustrated as he repeatedly calls Crowley to no avail.
Crowley is holed up in a hotel room with a sexy demon named Lola, subsisting on sex, pizza and indulging his human blood addiction. His humanity is coming to the fore and he spends his day watching romantic movies and reading sad books. Lola, however, is reporting Crowley's degeneration to Abaddon, through a minion called Aldo. She passes on that Crowley provides little opposition due to his addiction, but also that he is helping the Winchesters look for the First Blade which can kill Abaddon.
Sam and Dean summon a crossroads demon - who turns out to be reality star Snooki. She tells the boys he was last known to be in the Western Pacific, and that even his supporters are considering defecting to Abaddon.
Lola returns to Crowley, but he knows she has betrayed him and kills her. In desperation Crowley calls the Winchesters for help. They take him back to the Bunker, and lock him in the dungeon to detox from the human blood he has become addicted to. Sam keeps watch and Crowley tells Sam of what he knows of the blade's current whereabouts which has ended up on the black market. Crowley gets sentimental, reminiscing about what he refers to as the bond he and Sam shared during the final trial. Sam is unmoved and reminds Crowley he is only alive because they need him to find the blade and kill Abaddon, who is even more evil than him.
Sam, Dean and Crowley meet with the blackmarketer Andre Devlin. He refuses to give them any information, but Crowley enters him in his incorporeal form, extracts information and then smokes back to his own meat suit. Crowley informs the brothers that the Blade is at at the National Institute of Antiquities in Kansas City, Missouri.
At the Institute, two demons have possessed the guards to the vault. When Sam and Dean arrive posing as FBI agents, they see the security footage which shows the guards kill a research assistant, and then shoot each other. The curator Dr. McElroy informs the boys the vault has been empty for weeks, claiming she couldn't authenticate the blade, so she had taken it from the vault with the intent of selling it. While flirting shamelessly with Dean, Dr. McElroy reveals that she sold it to a buyer she knew only as Magnus. Once the curator leaves, Sam reminds Dean that the Men of Letters used "Magnus" as a pseudonym and wonders if one of them survived the 1958 massacre.

•The painting behind Dean when he's chained to the column in Magnus' collection is called "Still-Life with Hare and Game-Birds" painted by Jan Fayt in the 1640s.

•Sam: [talking about the spell to enter Sinclair's house] We're going to need some things. You actually might turn out to be useful, Crowley.
•Crowley: Dean, you are quite the killing machine, and it occurs to me that Abaddon is not the only name on your list. My name must be up there as well.
