Supernatural season 13 episode 1 synopsis: Mary’s struggle and more

As you eagerly await Supernatural season 13 episode 1 to air on The CW, all signs continue to point to there being some exciting character drama. “Lost & Found” is the title for the premiere, and as you would imagine, the episode will waste no time getting into the thick of the story in the aftermath of some of the crazy stuff that happened last season.

Below, the just released Supernatural season 13 episode 1 synopsis offers up a little more in the way of insight into what you can expect to see over the course of the entire hour:

“Season 13 begins exactly where we left off, with Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) left to pick up the pieces after the loss of their mother, the demise of Crowley (Mark Sheppard) and the heartbreaking death of Castiel (Misha Collins). The birth of Jack (Alexander Calvert) leaves the Winchester brothers with differing opinions on how to deal with a Nephilim. After being dragged into the breach, Mary (Samantha Smith) must learn to survive Lucifer (Mark Pellegrino) and an apocalyptic world.”

There is absolutely a great deal of interesting stuff to be extracted from this, but for the time being the Mary Winchester content excites us the most. After all, she is the character whose status was the biggest mystery over the past few weeks, and this suggests that she will still have some sort of role to play in the show moving forward. Almost from the end of season 11 on her entire story has been some sort of crazy roller-coaster ride.

As for what’s coming up with Sam and Dean, it felt pretty clear that them having to deal with Jack was going to be a central component of the story to come, with the same thing being said for them having to take on constant enemies — at this point, that’s just woven into the main fabric of the show. Unfortunately, Sheppard’s name being listed in the synopsis does not mean he will return, as there are no plans for this to happen anytime soon. However, Collins will be back in some form … but we don’t even know for sure that he is playing Castiel. No matter what the show has planned for him, there is obviously a good reason for him to be gone in the early going. Maybe we’ll learn more about what’s coming with him in the weeks to come, but we don’t necessarily think that the producers are in all that much of a hurry. Just remember that it is a Supernatural tradition to often show patience with their storytelling, given that this is a long season and there’s no reason to give everything away from the jump.
