Sam turns his eyes out the window. "Well, not exactly. I was going to bury her body too, but... It didn't work out that way." That's not the half of it. He feels a wave of exhaustion that there has to be any reason at all with Ruby. "Maybe. Maybe it's as simple as that. She doesn't want the world to mirror Hell, and neither do I. Ruby and I have some common ground." Even if he knew Ruby wanted a get out of Hell free card, he wouldn't blame her. There's a lot written on Dean's face since his return that tells Sam that Hell isn't a place demons want to be either.

He nods, his thoughts elsewhere. He knows it's not Dean's fault for how things worked out. "Nothing has to change with her in the picture. You're back now and we can figure it out. Give Ruby a chance, Dean."
