Picking locks is simple once you know the trick of it—just nudge the tumblers into line, changing tactics as necessary, and if you're in a hurry and don't mind doing damage, it's just as effective to make the lock go boom.
After Sam buries his brother six inches under, after he can't sell his soul even for a penny on the dollar, after he kicks Ruby and her blonde secretary out of the car, he drives straight to Nebraska, pausing only to refuel on unleaded and Jack Daniels, and breaks into Caleb's warehouse—Caleb was John's gunrunner, for values of 'gunrunner' that include 'purveyors of aids to anti-supernatural mischief-makers' and how can Sam be cracking Dean-style jokes when he doesn't, can't ever, know whether Dean would understand?—and from there heads to Wyoming.
Sam doesn't have the key to the Devil's Gate, but somewhere in the carload of Caleb's inventory is something that canwillmust get the Gate open anyway; he'll be unleashing hundreds more demons on the world (the Gate is Pandora's box anyway, Sam already knows, open it and no end of evil will come pouring out and the one thing that will stay is the one thing he needs), but last time the Gate opened, Dad got out, and this time Dad isn't there and won't be coming, but Dean is there, and come he canwillmust.
