After returning to the Men of Letters bunker, Castiel reveals that he has gotten a bag of the fruit. According to Castiel, he had to battle a clan of djinn guarding the tree for it. Castiel killed most of the djinn and bargained with the rest, possibly leaving Castiel married to the djinn clan's queen. When Castiel got sucked into Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, he dropped the bag with the fruit and a few spilled out.
