Speculation about S12 is welcome. Actual knowledge (or things that you don't know for sure if they're real, such as things said at cons) of plots, guest stars, episode titles, etc., is spoilery, so please don't post it here. Thanks!!!

> Why didn't Dean just call Sam?
Or pray to Cas?

Do prayers work any more? I recall having similar questions when Charlie died and someone pointed out that Angels couldn't zap any more since Metatron turfed them out of Heaven, so maybe they can't heal or hear prayers any more either (though why they didn't get all their powers back again when they reclaimed Heaven beats me).

I don't really understand what's going on in heaven. Is it closed to new souls? Do prayers work?

I think they've just done a fudge job on neutering the angels' powers because its become an inconvenience to plotting to have an almost all powerful being around who can solve all the problems with a snap of the fingers. It's a bit like the eagles in Lord of the Rings.
