The CW has released the new images for this week’s Supernatural Episode 13.21, titled “Beat the Devil,” directed by Phil Sgriccia and written by Robert Berens. Check them out now in the gallery below!

In the promo for this week’s episode, team save Mary and Jack — aka, Sam, Dean, and Castiel — with the help of Gabriel and Rowena make their way into the Apocalypse World to begin their rescue mission.

Supernatural 13.21 “Beat the Devil” will air on May 3 and is officially described as follows:

“Sam (Jared Padalecki), Dean (Jensen Ackles), Castiel (Misha Collins) and Gabriel (guest star Richard Speight, Jr.) must work together if they have any hope of bringing Mary (guest star Samantha Smith) and Jack (Alexander Calvert) home. Meanwhile, Rowena’s (guest star Ruth Connell) encounter with Lucifer (Mark Pellegrino) may alter the outcome of the journey for one of our heroes.”

Could “one of our heroes” be referring to Sam? Last month Padalecki teased that in episode 21 “Sam deals with something pretty harrowing and terrifying and has a few owies,” that caused the actor to spend many hours in the makeup chair after Sam is left “pretty beat up.” Could this be the result of Rowena and Lucifer’s encounter? Or will Sam’s harrowing ordeal occur in the Apocalypse World at the hands of someone else?

Supernatural follows brothers Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) Winchester. The thrilling and terrifying journey of the Winchester brothers continues in Supernatural‘s 13th season. Sam and Dean have spent their lives on the road, battling supernatural threats that include everything from the demon that killed their mother to the usual vampires, ghosts, shape-shifters, angels and fallen gods rampaging over the land. They’ve come out on top with the help of allies, both human and supernatural, but every victory comes at a price.
