LeviathanAnnie

Annie, the initial host, becomes possessed by a Leviathan.

After the Leviathans dispersed into the public water supply, this one infects and possesses a little girl named Annie who was taking a drink from a fountain at a park. Annie meets with Edgar, who orders her to get the other Leviathans under control since the boss doesn't want them to attract attention.[1]

Annie goes to Sioux Falls General Hospital and meets a surgeon named Dr. Gaines. After asking him if he was "Dr. Sexy", she assumes his identity and then kills him.

Now as Dr. Gaines, he begins feeding on patients in the hospital. He is noticed by Jody Mills who escapes the hospital.

Later on, Dr. Gaines and the Leviathan Head Nurse are preparing a patient for surgery - or "dessert" as they call it. This Leviathan receives a call alerting him to the Winchesters' arrival at the hospital, but he is too late to stop Bobby from driving away in a stolen ambulance with Dean and an unconscious Sam. Three weeks later, Bobby reports that the Leviathans at the hospital - Dr Gaines, the head nurse and an administrator - have disappeared.[2]

Gaines begins experimenting on humans to make them more compliant. However, a small number of humans react badly to the Gaines' experiments and become ravenous, cannibalistic creatures which go on to commit a spree of murders. These killings caught the attention of the media. Dick Roman shuts down the project and makes Dr. Gaines "bib" himself as punishment for his carelessness. This punishment involves Gaines being forced to wear a lobster bib and then literally eating himself starting with his right arm. After the punishment is complete, nothing is left of Dr. Gaines except a black stain on the bib.[3]

  • Super Strength - Gaines possessed strength superior to that of most angels, demons and all humans.
  • Enhanced Intelligence - Gaines was able to experiment on humans in order to make them more compliant. This however, was a failure.
