Wild speculation post!

Since I stopped recapping this year (thank God lol), I've done most of my show speculating/analysis over in poor
ash48's journal (I'm so sorry, Ash!) But I've been thinking the past few days about what I think is going to happen as we come to the final chapter of Season Nein.
Behind the cut are my wild predictions of what I think is going to happen by the end of the finale, not what will carry over into season 10. These are not spoilers, just based solely on speculation based on what has happened so far.
Join me in the comment section with your own speculation. Feel free to debate any of my points and add your own -- we'll check back in after the finale and see if any of us were right!
Note: I'm running under my continued theory that Carver is re-doing Kripke's S4/5 arc, with huge nods also to S3. That colors my views of a lot of stuff.

- Gadreel turns on Metatron
- Metatron dead/gone and Heaven open
- Cas gets his grace back
- Abaddon dead by Dean's hand
- Crowley/Cain double-cross exposed
- Dean goes full darkside
- The audience realizes in a shocking twist that Sam really does love his brother!
- INCEST (shhh, go with it)

Sam dies and Dean has to...no that's already been done....
Umm..
Dean disappears and Sam has to... nah...already done.
Sam's life is threatened and Dean has to...
Ok.
Finale episode - Dean is totally overcome by the Mark and tries to kill Sam. Sam tries to talk him out of it but, unlike in this episode, isn't able to (foreshadowed in that last ep) Crowley has been defeated by Abaddon and she has control of Dean. (yum!) She watches on with delicious glee as Dean is about to kill Sam (foreshadowed in the ep where Abaddon taunts Dean about her having control of his body).
Crowley is made to watch and is most upset because his favourite human - Sam - is under threat (also pissed that Abaddon has won and he's even more human as is actually feeling some sort of screwed up remorse for what's happening).
Cas makes a last ditch attempt to save Dean (and Sam) but Dean turns on Cas and kills him (but not really but we're made to think so). It all goes pear shaped so Abaddon abducts Dean leaving Sam and Crowley to wonder what the fuck as the season ends.
Gadreel and Metatron somehow open the gates of Heaven. Then Gad kills Met (redemptive Gadreel - or maybe even more power hungry than Met) and Cas ends up killing Gad. Goodbye plot device angels. Cas is urged by other angels to control Heaven but he realises leadership is not really for him.
S10. Dean and Abaddon in delicious partnership for a while (totally dark!Dean) and the alternative "team free will" will have to work out a way to get Dean back. They get him back and Carver introduces another reason for the boys to be fighting. But by the end of S10 sam will have made some almighty sacrifice and wincest will ensue.
