"Lily Sunder Has Some Regrets" is the tenth episode of the paranormal drama television series Supernatural's season 12, and the 251st overall. The episode was written by Steve Yockey and directed by Thomas J. Wright. It was first broadcast on February 2, 2017, on The CW. In the episode, after an Angel is killed, Sam, Dean and Castiel investigate and discover there's a hunter that's killing angels connected to the murders of her child and husband.
The episode received mostly positive reviews, with critics praising the case of the week.
An angel named Benjamin (Miranda Edwards) is murdered, drawing the attention of a flight of angels he had been a part of including Ishim, Mirabel and Castiel (Misha Collins). Sam (Jared Padalecki), Dean (Jensen Ackles), and Castiel investigate the murder, only to see Mirabel killed as well by Lily Sunder, who flees when the Winchesters intervene. Castiel and Ishim explain that in 1901, Lily had married an angel named Akobel and had a Nephilim daughter. As this was against Heaven's laws, they killed Akobel and his daughter May; now Lily wants revenge. The Winchesters track down Lily and are shocked to learn that her daughter was human, not Nephilim. Lily had studied angels all of her life and her powers come from Enochian magic. Lily's studies had allowed her to summon Ishim, who taught her all the secrets of angels but became obsessed with her. Lily had married Akobel for protection and Ishim murdered Akobel and her daughter in revenge.
Believing Lily's story, Dean heads off to confront Ishim, followed soon after by Lily and Sam. Dean and Castiel confront Ishim, who eventually confirms Lily's story and battles them. After Ishim defeats the humans, Castiel kills him to save Lily, who is unsure whether or not she will give up on revenge since it's all she's had for over a hundred years. Castiel apologizes for his role in the death of Akobel and May and offers that if she leaves and finds that she can't forgive him, he will be waiting for her to take her chance. Lily ultimately departs after thanking Castiel. Later, the Winchesters and Castiel discuss the troubling implications of Lucifer's child and Castiel breaking the deal with Billie.
