Okay--one thought--Dean brought the trenchcoat from stolen car to stolen car, and he gave it back to him and he put it on for no good reason.
AWESOMENESS is its own reason.

I want to hope that the amulet is tucked away in something they shift from car to car. I should accept that it is gone, but I don't wanna.
I think I'm gonna have to watch this episode a few more times before I can comment coherently (I've already watched it twice).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've only watched it once, but I realised as I was waking up that I totally dreamt about it.
Cas! I can't believe....
Okay, so the idea is that he took Sam's memories, and that's why Lucifer is tormenting him? How exactly do you think he healed Sam? Is Sam integrated now, or does he just not have decades of dogbowl hatebanging in his noggin?

That was satisfying and open-ended. I approve. On the upside, Cas does't need to sleep, so he won't die and lack of sleep won't make him crazier. And maybe he can heal himself slowly. So maybe we see him again. Also... the coat.

And maybe he can heal himself slowly.
This is what I'm hoping. He does still have his angel powers and while it may take him a while to fix himself (possibly the season finale), I think he'll do it.
Parentheses are my speculation only, I know nothink!

I wonder where the coat is now--did Dean take it back?
This will disturb me.

Also to spend more time wanking the transfer than the writers probably did, there is a classic trope about supernatural healers taking the injury into themselves. I wonder if Castiel will eventually heal himself by losing his temper and transferring the brain damage in turn to someone taunting him a little too much. Hi Meg. Hi Crowley.

I'm actually a little more bothered by the handwaving involved in Sam being suddenly out of the locked psychiatric ward and Cas in the same ward than I am by the transferring Lucifer.
One is supernatural, the other ain't.
On the other hand, with both Meg and Cas in the ward, it's a good sign we will see both of them again.

Dean and Meg are both really good con artists. Meg can add supernatural reinforcement. Also Demon possessed Doctor tried to kill Sam by turning shock therapy up to max with an unsafe machine - which is leverage.

Two last thoughts:
1) Can demons alter memories? Maybe at this point all the paperwork and staff memories say Cas was the patient all along.
2) If Cas gets cured by losing his temper and transferring the injury to someone else, maybe it will be Dean. Dean always could make Cas lose his shit. More guilt for Cas, more guilt for Sam (his injury) and more manpain for Dean.
