I'll give it a 10/10 if I could stare at Dean's face the entire time. Unfortunately a lot happened before that, so points will be taken off.
Negatives:
First of all, Mary's the best hunter the BMoL has ever seen. Yeah right.
Second of all, S&D should have kicked her out of the Bunker after this.
Found it weird that the dead teachers were alive suddenly. But I liked seeing Gavin again, to bad we didn't see Rowena's reaction on being a grandmother.
She must have been shocked to hear that, maybe a snark comment about Crowley or how she is to young to be a grandmother.
Not gonna comment about the Nickifer/ Crowleything, the whole rediculous thing of experts and cages and chains, no, just no.
Dagon looks cool, just stole her look of Meg and Ruby. How did she kill the angels? Didn't look like she used a weapon.
Oh yeah there were also ghosts in this story. Seriously, coulnd't they have crammed just a little bit more in this episode? Just the Gavinstory was maybe 20 minutes worth of screentime. Just as much as the two lead guest stars were in it.
Stumbling Dean again, but luckily it didn't last long.
Positives: Loved the 1.5 seconds of Abaddon, talk about your badass woman. I miss her. Sam restraining Rowena in the beginning. I don't know, but I liked it.
Sam's hurt at his mothers words. Mary even said it at the beginning of the episode, she even saw the torture herself but somehow in her mind it wasn't all that bad?? Dean's face at the end <3
So 1 point goes to Gavin, 1 for Rowena, 1 for Sam and 2 for Dean.
That makes it a 5/10

5/10 for me.
Dean showing his outstanding instincts and intuition was great to see, as Dean, after being contradicted a few times on his astute abilities to assess a situation and call it, was proven right once again. As well as Mary coming clean about what she has been doing and wanting to explain herself to them. I loved seeing Jensen's fantastic ability to exude Dean's seething distain for her working with the BMoL, and I thought the part afterward about where they stand with each other was a well done beginning to a much needed conversation between them, though I am not hopeful that they'll have it or that we'll see it. All of which made the episode better than I anticipated. To bad there wasn't more of that.
Gavin, the ghost story, Crowley and Rowena were just...okay.
Then there's what brought this episode down dramatically for me. The BMoL, Luci, Luci's baby momma and spawn were boring as hell . Thought the POH Demon (can't remember her name) killing Angels was ridiculously stupid. The commonplace Plotholes and Retcons that the Nep-Duo are known for were, per usual, on display. All of which permeated too much of this episode and should have been cut or, at the very least, scaled back IMO.

3/10
So basically, this episode's plot was just the catalyst for the #teamevildad bonding between Crowley and Luci? Come on, Crowley, you're not that stupid.
I'm glad Mary came clean. Are we to assume that the montage at the end is the Winchesters finally hashing everything out and all will be hunky-dory next week?
Points for Dean's face and his spot on instincts, Abaddon (don't blink, you'll miss her), and I liked Rowena's delivery of her Oskar speech to Crowley.
Points off for the contrived plot which thrusts Crowley and Luci together, and everything else.

Didn't look like she used a weapon. I don't think even Mary was buying that crap about her being the best hunter he'd ever seen. I could hear her eyes rolling in her head from here. Dagon can kill angels but I bet she meets her end easily with some badly written deus ex machina any day now.
