Air Date: 23 Oct 2008TEASER
EXT. ROAD – NIGHT
Dean is seen running on the road, hearing growling and barking noises behind him. He turns around a corner, runs into a shopping cart and falls to the ground. He sees a homeless man rummaging through a garbage bin.
DEAN
Run! It'll kill you! (pointing)
Camera pans away from Dean to the homeless man, then to a pink-ribboned Yorkie. Dean starts running while shouting at the same time.
END TEASER
ACT ONE
43 HOURS EARLIER
INT. MORGUE – DAY
Coroner opens a body bag.
CORONER
Agent Tyler, Agent Perry, meet Frank O'Brien.
SAM
He died of a heart attack, right?
CORONER
Three days ago.
SAM
But O'Brien was 44 years old and, according to this a marathon runner.
CORONER
Everybody drops dead sooner or later. It's why I got job security.
DEAN
Yeah, but Frank kicked it here. Now, just yesterday, two perfectly healthy men bit it in Maumee. All heart attacks, you don't think that's strange?
CORONER
Sounds like Maumee's problem to me. Why's the FBI give a damn, anyway?
DEAN
We just want to see the results of Frank's autopsy.
CORONER
What autopsy?
DEAN
The one you're gonna do.
Coroner cuts open the dead body.
CORONER
First dead body?
DEAN
Far from it.
CORONER
Oh, good. Because these suckers can get pretty ripe. Hey, hand me those
rib cutters, would you?
Sam takes a fortifying breath while Dean picks up the cutters and hands it to the Coroner. Coroner cuts the ribs open while Sam keeps himself from squirming.
DEAN
Is that from a wedding ring? I didn't think Frank was married.
CORONER
Ain't my department.
SAM
Any idea how he got these? (picks up Frank’s arm which is full of scratches)
CORONER
You know what? When you drop dead, you actually tend to drop. Body probably got scraped up when it hit the ground. Huh!
SAM
What?
CORONER
I-I can't find any blockages in any of the major arteries.
Coroner breaks off the heart while Dean tries not to vomit.
CORONER
Heart looks pretty damn healthy. (Hands heart to Dean) Hold that a second, would you? (Sam smirks on the side)
Coroner cuts something else in the body.
CORONER
(Hits Sam’s face with blood) Oh, sorry. Spleen juice. (Dean smirks)
INT. SHERIFF’S STATION – DAY
Sam & Dean sitting down in front of Deputy’s desk, waiting. Deputy smiles at Dean. Sheriff opens his office door.
SHERIFF
Hell's bells, Linus, have you seen my.... Who are they? (Sam & Dean stands)
DEPUTY LINUS
Federal agents. I, uh....
SHERIFF
And you kept them waiting?
DEPUTY LINUS
You, you said not to disturb.
SHERIFF
Come on back, fellas.
Sam & Dean walk over to Sheriff’s office but Sheriff stops them.
SHERIFF
Shoes off.
Sam & Dean take their shoes off and walk into Sheriff’s office.
SHERIFF BRITTON
Al Britton. Good to meet you. (shakes Dean & Sam’s hands)
SAM
You too.
Sheriff gestures for Sam & Dean to sit down.
SAM
Thank you.
Sheriff takes out alcohol gel and start slathering his hands. Dean looks at Sam with a weird look on his face.
SHERIFF BRITTON
Okay. So, what can I do for uncle Sam?
SAM
Well, we're looking into the death of Frank O'Brien. We understand some of
your men found his body.
SHERIFF BRITTON
They did. Me and Frank, we were friends. Hell, we were gamecocks.
Dean snickers. Sheriff gives him a stern look. Dean looks abashed.
SHERIFF BRITTON
That's our softball team's name. (Dean nods) They're majestic animals. I knew Frank since high school. To be honest, I just this morning got up the strength to go see him. Frank was...He was a good man.
DEAN
Yeah. Big heart.
SAM
Before he died, did you notice frank acting strange? Maybe scared of something?
SHERIFF BRITTON
Oh hell, yeah. Real jumpy.
SAM
You know what scared him?
SHERIFF BRITTON
No. Wouldn't answer his phone. Finally, I sent some of my boys over to check on him, and well, you know the rest.
Sheriff starts and pours alcohol gel on his hands again. Dean looks at Sam with a what “WTF?” look on his face.
SHERIFF BRITTON
(Slathering gel on his hands) So, why the Feds give a crap? You don't really think there's a case here?
DEAN
(Looks at Sam) No, no. It's probably nothing. Just a heart attack.
EXT. SAM & DEAN WALKING - DAY
DEAN
No way that was a heart attack.
SAM
Definitely no way. Three victims, all with those same red scratches. All went from jittery to terrified to dead within 48 hours.
DEAN
Something scared them to death?
SAM
All right, so what can do that?
DEAN
What can't? Ghosts, vampires, chupacabra? It could be a hundred things.
SAM
Yeah. So, we make a list and start crossing things off.
DEAN
Alright, who's the last person to see Frank O'Brien alive?
SAM
Uh, his neighbour, Mark Hutchins.
DEAN
(Seeing something ahead) Hang on, hang on.
SAM
What?
DEAN
(Facing Sam) I don't like the looks of those teenagers down there. (Sam looks around, sees teenagers talking near the Impala)
DEAN
Let's walk this way. (Crosses street while Sam stands with a perplexed look on his face)
INT. NEIGHBOUR’S HOUSE - DAY
MARK HUTCHINS
Tyler and Perry. Just like Aerosmith.
Dean is looking around the room.
SAM
Yeah, small world. So, the last time you saw Frank O'Brien? (Dean sees a big lizard and suddenly faces forward, swallowing)
MARK HUTCHINS
Monday, he was watching me from his window. I waved at him, but he just closed the curtains.
SAM
Hmm. did you speak to him recently? Did he seem different? Uh, scared?
MARK HUTCHINS
Oh, totally. He was freaking out.
Sam looks at Dean. Dean looks freaked out too.
DEAN
Do you know, uh..do you know what scared him?
MARK HUTCHINS
Well, yeah, witches.
SAM
Witches? (Sam & Dean look at each other) Like...?
MARK HUTCHINS
Well, "Wizard of Oz" was on tv the other night, right? And he said that green bitch was totally out to get him.
SAM
Anything else scare him?
MARK HUTCHINS
Everything else scared him. Al-Qaeda, ferrets, artificial sweetener. Those pez dispensers with their dead little eyes. Lots of stuff. (Dean looks around again at the animals inside the aquariums)
SAM
So, tell me. What was Frank like?
MARK HUTCHINS
I mean, he's dead, you know? I-I don't want to hammer him but, he got better.
SAM
He got better?
MARK HUTCHINS
Well, in high school he was, he was a dick.
SAM
A dick?
MARK HUTCHINS
Like a bully. I mean, he probably taped half the town's butt cheeks together,
Dean snickers.
MARK HUTCHINS
Mine included.
DEAN
So he pissed a lot of people off. You think anyone would have wanted to get revenge?
MARK HUTCHINS
Well, I don't...Frank had a heart attack, right?
SAM
Just answer the question, sir.
MARK HUTCHINS
No, I don't think so. Like I said, he got better. And after what happened to his wife.
DEAN
His wife? So he was married.
MARK HUTCHINS
She died about 20 years ago. Frank was really broken up about it.
Dean starts staring at the snake around Mark’s neck. Mark notices.
MARK HUTCHINS
Don't be scared of Donny. He's a sweetheart. It's Marie you got to look out for. (Nods to couch) She smells fear.
Albino snake creeps up from behind the couch. Dean sees it and gasps. Stays very still while it crawls down his lap.
EXT. IMPALA – NIGHT
Dean is sitting in the car reading while scratching on his left arm. Sam opens passenger door and climbs in.
SAM
Hey. Any luck at the county clerk's office?
DEAN
I'm not sure I'd call it luck. Frank's wife, Jessie, was a manic-depressive. She went off her meds back in '88 and vanished. They found her two weeks later, three towns over. Strung up in her motel room, suicide.
SAM
Any chance Frank helped her along to the other side?
DEAN
No, Frank was working the swing shift when she disappeared. Airtight alibi. (Turns on car)
Driving in the middle of town.
DEAN
How was Frank's pad?
SAM
Clean. Searched it top to bottom. No EMF, no hex bags, no sulfur.
DEAN
So probably no ghosts, no witches, no demons.
SAM
Pfh...
DEAN
3 down and 97 to go.
SAM
Yeah. (Sees speed Dean is driving in) Dude, you're going 20.
DEAN
And?
SAM
That's the speed limit.
DEAN
What? Safety's a crime now?
Drives through intersection, past their hotel.
SAM
Dude, where are you going? That was our hotel.
DEAN
Sam, I'm not gonna make a left-hand turn into oncoming traffic. I'm not suicidal.
Sam gives Dean a confused look.
DEAN
Did I just say that? That was kind of weird.
EMF goes off in the background.
SAM
Do you hear something? (Takes out EMF meter, moves it from and to Dean where it makes a sound)
DEAN
Am I haunted? Am I haunted?!
END ACT ONE
ACT TWO
EXT. IN FRONT OF HOTEL – DAY
Sam is on the phone talking to Bobby. Hears music from the Impala and walks towards it. See Dean lying on the front seat doing air drums to Eye of the Tiger. Bangs on the roof of the car and scares Dean.
DEAN
Dude. Look at this. (Shows scratches on arm)
SAM
I just talked to Bobby.
DEAN
And? (Smells box of donuts and throws into car)
SAM
(Looking perplexed at Dean ignoring the donuts) Um, well, you're not gonna like it.
DEAN
What?
SAM
It's ghost sickness.
DEAN
Ghost sickness?
SAM
Yeah.
DEAN
God, no.
SAM
Yeah.
DEAN
I don't even know what that is.
SAM
Okay. Some cultures believe that certain spirits can infect the living with a disease, which is why they stopped displaying bodies in houses and started taking them off to funeral homes.
DEAN
Okay, get to the good stuff.
SAM
Symptoms are you get anxious...
DEAN
Yeah.
SAM
Then scared, then really scared, then your heart gives out. Sound familiar?
DEAN
Yeah, but Sam, we haven't seen a ghost in weeks.
SAM
Well, I doubt you caught it from a ghost. Look, once a spirit infects that first person, Ghost sickness can spread like any sickness through a cough, a handshake, whatever. It's like the flu. Now, Frank O'Brien was the first to die, which means he was probably the first infected. Patient zero.
DEAN
Our very own outbreak monkey.
SAM
Right. Get this, Frank was in Maumee over the weekend. Softball tournament. Which is where he must have infected the other two victims.
DEAN
Were they gamecocks?
SAM
Cornjerkers.
DEAN
So, ghosts infected Frank. He passed it on to the other guys and I got it from his corpse?
SAM
Right.
DEAN
So now what, I have 48 hours before I go insane and my heart stops?
SAM
More like 24.
DEAN
Super.
SAM
Yeah.
DEAN
Well, why me? Why not you? I mean, you got hit with the spleen juice.
SAM
Yeah, um, you see Bobby and I have a theory about that too. Turns out all three victims shared a certain, uh, personality type. Frank was a bully. The other two victims, one was a vice principal, the other was a bouncer.
DEAN
Okay.
SAM
Basically, they were all dicks.
DEAN
So you're saying I'm a dick?
SAM
No, no, no. It's not just that. All three victims used fear as a weapon, and now this disease is just returning the favor.
DEAN
I don't scare people.
SAM
Dean, all we do is scare people.
DEAN
Okay, well then, you're a dick too.
SAM
Apparently, I'm not.
DEAN
Whatever. How do we stop it?
SAM
We gank the ghost that started all this. We do that, the disease should clear up.
DEAN
You thinking Frank's wife?
SAM
Who knows why she killed herself, you know? Hey, what are you doing waiting out here, anyway?
DEAN
(Looks up at the hotel) Our room's on the fourth floor.
Sam looks and shakes head.
DEAN
It's...it’s high.
SAM
I'll see if I can move us down to the first.
DEAN
Thanks.
SAM
Sure.
Dean climbs into the Impala and looks at donuts.
INT. HOTEL ROOM – DAY
Dean sits at table with book in front of him. Stares at wall clock ticking loudly in the background. Goes back to reading and starts coughing when he sees disturbing images. Sees words that seem to be talking to him and starts to panic. Irritatingly looks back at the clock.
Scene fades to black with sound of something breaking in the background.
Sam comes into room, sees broken clock on floor. Dean is on the sofa drinking beer.
SAM
Everything all right?
DEAN
Oh,yeah. Just peachy. Find anything?
SAM
Yeah, Jessie O'Brien's body was cremated, so I'm pretty sure she is not our ghost. Hey, quit picking at that. How you feeling?
DEAN
Awesome. It's nice to have my head on the chopping block again. I almost forgot what that feels like.
SAM
Yeah.
DEAN
It's freaking delightful.
SAM
We'll keep looking.
Dean starts to cough.
SAM
You okay? Hey!
Dean starts to choke.
SAM
Dean.
Dean is gagging over the sink where he spits out a wood chip.
SAM
We've been completely ignoring the biggest clue we have, you.
DEAN
I don't want to be a clue.
SAM
The abrasions, this, the disease, it's trying to tell us something.
DEAN
Tell us what, wood chips?
SAM
Exactly.
EXT. OUTSIDE THE LUMBER MILL – DAY
Dean looks at the mill apprehensively.
DEAN
I'm not going in there.
SAM
I need backup, and you're all I've got. You're going in, Dean.
DEAN
(Takes a drink of whiskey) Let's do this. It is a little spooky, isn't it?
Sam hands Dean a gun.
DEAN
Oh, I'm not carrying that. It could go off. I'll man the flashlight.
SAM
You do that.
INT. INSIDE THE LUMBER MILL - DAY
EMF goes off in the background.
DEAN
EMF's not gonna work with me around, is it?
SAM
You don't say. Come on.
SAM
Wait...(startles Dean). "To Frank. Love, Jessie." Frank O'Brien's ring.
DEAN
What the hell was Frank doing here?
SAM
No idea.
Walks into a room full of lockers where they hear rustling. Sam opens a locker and Dean screams after being startled by a cat.
DEAN
That was scary! (Sam walks away) Wait.
SAM
(Looking at an ID card) Luther Garland.
DEAN
(Sees drawing on table) Hey, this is uh...this is Frank's wife.
SAM
Plot thickens.
DEAN
Yeah, but into what?
Dean tears off the drawing and machines turn on. Looking around he sees something in the corner. Sam looks at Dean and sees him looking behind him, he turns around and sees the same thing.
SAM
Hey! (Turns around and sees Dean running out the mill)
Sam shoots the apparition and goes after Dean who is hiding behind the Impala taking another drink.
SAM
Guess we got the right place.
END ACT TWO
ACT THREE
INT. SHERIFF’S STATION – DAY
DEPUTY LINUS
(Hands folder to Sam) This is the Garland file. (Sees Dean swaying) Is he...drunk?
SAM
No. Deputy, according to this, Luther Garland's cause of death was physical trauma. What does that mean?
DEPUTY LINUS
The guy died 20 years ago, before my time. Sorry.
SAM
Then can we talk to the sheriff?
DEPUTY LINUS
Um, he's out sick today.
SAM
Well, if you see him, will you have him call us? We're staying at the Bluebird. Mind if I take this?
DEAN
Know what? You're awesome.
DEPUTY LINUS
Thanks. Um, y-you too, I guess.
SHERIFF BRITTON (Over the intercom)
Who was that?
DEPUTY LINUS
It’s uh, those FBI guys.
SHERIFF BRITTON
What did they want?
DEPUTY LINUS
A file, Luther Garland's. Sheriff?
Inside Sheriff Britton’s office.
(VOICE OVER)
SHERIFF BRITTON
They know. They know. They know what you did, and they're gonna make you pay.
INT. PEACEFUL PINES ASSISTED LIVING – NIGHT
Sam & Dean are walking inside. Dean is startled by a resident that they bump into in the hallway.
DEAN
This isn't gonna work. Come on, these badges are fake. What if we get busted?
We could go to jail.
SAM
Dean, shh! Calm down. Deep breath, okay? (Dean takes a deep breath.) There. You feel better? (Dean shakes his head no.) Just come on. Don't scratch.
SAM
Mr. Garland. Hi uh, I'm Agent Tyler. This is Agent Perry, FBI. We'd like to ask you a few questions about your brother Luther.
MR. GARLAND
Let me see some I.D.
SAM
Certainly.
DEAN
Those are real, obviously. I mean, who would pretend to be an FBI agent, huh? That's just nutty.
MR. GARLAND
What do you want to know?
SAM
Uh, well...according to this, your brother Luther died of physical trauma. (Mr. Garland scoffs)
SAM
You don't agree.
MR. GARLAND
No, I don't.
SAM
Well, then, what would you call it?
MR. GARLAND
Don't matter what an old man thinks.
SAM
Mr. Garland. We're just trying to get the truth on your brother. Please.
MR. GARLAND
Everybody was scared of Luther. They called him a monster. (FLASHBACK) He was too big, too mean-looking. Just too different. Didn't matter he was the kindest man I ever knew. Didn't matter he'd never hurt no one. (END FLASHBACK) A lot of people failed Luther. I was one of them. I was a widower with three young 'uns. And I told myself there was nothing I could do.
SAM
Mr. Garland, um...do you recognize this woman?
MR. GARLAND
It's Jessie O'Brien. Her man, Frank, killed Luther.
SAM
How do you know that?
MR. GARLAND
Everybody knows. They just don't talk about it. (FLASHBACK) Jessie was a
receptionist at the mill. She was always real nice to Luther, and he had a crush on her. (END FLASHBACK) But Frank didn't like it. And when Jessie went missing, Frank was sure that Luther had done something to her. Turns out the old gal killed herself, but Frank didn't know that. (FLASHBACK OF LUTHER BEING DRAGGED) They found Luther with a chain wrapped around his neck. He was dragged up and down the stretch outside that plant till he was past dead.
DEAN
And O'Brien was never arrested?
MR. GARLAND
I screamed to every cop in town. They didn't want to look into Frank. He was a pillar of the community. My brother was just the town freak.
SAM
You must have hated Frank O'Brien.
MR. GARLAND
I did for a long time, but life's too short for hate, son. And frank wasn't thinking straight. His wife had vanished, he was terrified. A damn shame he had to put Luther through the same, but...that's fear. It spreads and spreads.
EXT. PEACEFUL PINES - NIGHT
DEAN
Now we know what these are, road rash. And I'm guessing Luther
swallowed some wood chips when he was being dragged down that road.
SAM
Makes sense. You're experiencing his death in slow motion.
DEAN
Yeah well, not slow enough, huh? Say we burn some bones and get me healthy.
SAM
Dean, it won't be that easy.
DEAN
No, no, it'll be that easy. Why wouldn't it be that easy?
SAM
Luther was road-hauled. His body was ripped to pieces. He was probably scattered all over that road. There's no way we're gonna find all the remains.
DEAN
You're kidding me.
SAM
Look, we'll just have to figure something else out.
DEAN
You know what? Screw this.
SAM
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Dean.
DEAN
Come on. No, I mean, come on, Sam. What are we doing?!
SAM
We're hunting a ghost.
DEAN
A ghost, exactly! Who does that?
SAM
Us.
DEAN
Us? Right. And that Sam, that is exactly why our lives suck. I mean, come on, we hunt monsters! What the hell?! I mean, normal people, they see a monster, and they run. But not us, no, no, no, we -- we search out things that want to kill us. Yeah? Huh? Or eat us! You know who does that? Crazy people! We...are insane! You know, and then there's the bad diner food and then the skeevy motel rooms and then the truck-stop waitress with the bizarre rash. I mean, who wants this life, Sam? Huh? Seriously? Do you actually like being stuck in a car with me eight hours a day, every single day? I don't think so! I mean, I drive too fast. And I listen to the same five albums over and over and over again, a-and I sing along. I'm annoying, I know that. And you --you're gassy! You eat half a burrito, and you get toxic! I mean, you know what? (tosses Sam the keys) You can forget it.
SAM
Whoa, Dean. where are you going?
DEAN
Stay away from me Sam, okay? Cause I am done with it. I'm done with the monsters and -- and -- and the hellhounds and the ghost sickness and the damn apocalypse. I'm out. I'm done. Quit.
Deans is walking when he hears growling behind him.
INT. HOTEL ROOM - NIGHT
SAM
I looked everywhere for you, Dean. How the hell did you get here?
DEAN
Ran. What do we do now? I got less than four hours on the clock. I'm gonna die, Sammy.
SAM
Yeah, you are. (Dean looks puzzled) You're going back.
DEAN
Back?
SAM
Downstairs Dean, hell. It's about damn time, too. Truth is, (Sam turns to Dean with yellow-eyes) You've been a real pain in my ass. (Throws Dean against wall with a hand gesture)
DEAN
No! You get out of my brother, you evil son of a bitch!
YELLOW-EYED SAM
No one's possessing me, Dean. This is what I'm going to become. This is what I want to become. There's nothing you can do about it. (Starts to choke Dean)
SAM
Hey, hey, hey, Dean. Hey, Dean. Dean. Dean.
END ACT THREE
ACT FOUR
EXT. OUTSIDE LUMBER MILL – DAY
Sam is sitting on the Impala as a car drives up.
BOBBY
Howdy, Sam.
SAM
Hey, Bobby. Thanks for coming so quick.
BOBBY
Where's Dean?
SAM
Uh, home sick.
Scene shifts to Dean sitting inside the hotel watching TV.
DEAN
(Sees Pokey being lassoed and dragged) Oh, this isn't helping.
Back to the lumber mill.
BOBBY
So, have his hallucinations started yet?
SAM
Yeah, a few hours ago.
BOBBY
How we doing on time?
SAM
We saw the coroner about 8:00 a.m. Monday morning, so, uh...just under two hours. What about you? You find anything?
BOBBY
This uh, encyclopaedia of spirits dates to the Edo period. (Gives Sam a book with Japanese text)
SAM
You can read Japanese?
BOBBY
(Answers in Japanese)
SAM
Guess so, show-off.
BOBBY
Anyway, this book lists a kind of ghost that could be our guy. It uh, infects people with fear. It's called a Buru Buru.
SAM
It say how to kill it?
BOBBY
Same as usual. Burn the remains.
SAM
Wonderful. Uh...is there a Plan "B"?
BOBBY
Well, the Buru Buru is born of fear. Hell, it is fear. And the lore says we
can kill it with fear.
SAM
So we have to scare a ghost to death?
BOBBY
Pretty much.
SAM
How the hell we gonna do that?
Back at the hotel room, Dean’s cellphone rings.
DEAN
Hey.
SAM
Hey! So, uh, just ride out the trip, okay? You're -- you're gonna be fine. We got a plan.
DEAN
What is it?
SAM (Voice on phone)
Uh, just a good plan, all right? Hang in there.
Back at the mill.
BOBBY
This is a terrible plan.
SAM
Yeah, tell me about it.
BOBBY
I know I said, "scare the ghost to death" but this?
SAM
Hey, you got a better idea, I'm listening.
Sam enters the mill when a hand comes up behind a glass window that shows Luther’s reflection.
Meanwhile, back at the hotel, Dean starts to hear barking. The door rattles then breaks off its hinges.
DEAN
Sheriff? (Sees gun in Sheriff’s hand) What are you doing?
SHERIFF BRITTON
Why are you looking into Luther Garland's death?
DEAN
(Sees blood on Sheriff’s right arm) Hey, hey, you're -- you're sick. You're sick. You're sick, all right? Just -- just like me, okay? You got to relax.
SHERIFF BRITTON
(Hits Dean) Frank O'Brien was my friend. So he made a mistake. So I didn't bust him. So what? And you're gonna bring me down over that?! No, sir. (Points gun at Dean but Dean swats it away)
Fight ensues.
SHERIFF BRITTON (VOICE OVER)
They know what you did.
SHERIFF BRITTON
(Starts to hyperventilate) Get away from me!
DEAN
Al, you got to calm down!
SHERIFF BRITTON
Step back! (Is having a heart attack)
SHERIFF BRITTON (VOICE OVER)
They know...
At the lumber mill.
BOBBY (OVER THE WALKIE TALKIE)
Any luck?
SAM
I don't know what's wrong, Bobby. Last time he came right at us. It's almost like he's, uh...like he's scared. (Puts down shotgun)
BOBBY
So now what?
SAM
I guess I got to make him angry. Hey, Luther! (Start to tear up drawings. Machines turn on) Come on, Luther! Where the hell are you? What are you waiting for? (Turns around and sees Luther)
INT. HOTEL
Dean is sitting on the bed scratching his arms. Hears again what Sam said during his hallucination earlier.
SAM (VOICE OVER)
You're going back. It’s about damn time too. Hahahaha.
Hears barking. Looks down on his watch and sees something on the floor. Picks it up and sees it’s the Bible.
LITTLE GIRL
Hi, Dean.
DEAN
Huh, no! No!
LITTLE GIRL
Yes! It's me, Lilith. (Embraces Dean) Oh, I missed you so much. It's time to go back now.
DEAN
(Moves away from Lilith) You – you are not real!
LILITH
What's the matter, Dean? Don't you remember all the fun you had down there? You do remember. 4 months is like 40 years in hell. Like doggy years. And you remember every second.
DEAN
(Clutches his chest) You are not real.
LILITH
It doesn't matter. You're still gonna die. You're still gonna burn.
DEAN
Why me? Why'd I get infected?
LILITH
Silly goose. You know why, Dean. Listen to your heart.
DEAN
Whu...?
LILITH
Baboom, baboom, baboom, baboom.
Back at the mill, Sam is fighting Luther’s spirit. Scene shifts to hotel room with Lilith taunting Dean. Back again to the mill where Sam manages to wrap the chain around Luther’s neck.
SAM
Bobby, punch it!
Bobby floors the Impala and pulls Luther’s spirit across the road until he disappears. At the same time Dean recovers in the hotel room.
END ACT FOUR
EPILOGUE
EXT. MIDDLE OF NOWHERE - DAY
DEAN
So you guys road-hauled a ghost with a chain?
SAM
Iron chain etched with spell work.
DEAN
Hmm, that's a new one.
SAM
It was what he was most afraid of. It was pretty brutal, though.
DEAN
On the upside, I'm still alive, so uh, go team!
SAM
Yeah. How you feeling, by the way?
DEAN
Fine.
BOBBY
You sure, Dean? 'Cause this line of work can get awful scary.
DEAN
I'm fine. You want to go hunting? I'll hunt. I'll kill anything.
BOBBY
Awwww, he's adorable. I got to get out of here. You boys drive safe.
SAM
You too, Bobby. Hey, thanks.
Bobby drives off.
SAM
So uh...so, what did you see? Near the end, I mean.
DEAN
Oh, besides a cop beating my ass?
SAM
Seriously.
Dean looks at Sam and sees a yellow flash in his eyes.
DEAN
Howler monkeys. Whole roomful of them. Those things creep the hell out of me.
SAM
Right.
DEAN
No, just the usual stuff, Sammy. Nothing I can’t handle.
END
DELETED SCENE
(Extended Scene 17 - Dean trips out reading)
INT. MOTEL - DAY
DEAN is sat at a desk reading a book titled GHOST SICKNESS & OTHER PARANORMAL DISEASES. The clock is ticking loudly as DEAN stares at it.
DEAN turns his attention back to the book which speaks of the symptoms of ghost sickness. We hear whispered voices.
DEAN gets distracted by the buzzing of an alarm clock in the room.
DEAN begins to cough, heartbeat loud. He scratches at his arm where there are visible scratch marks.
AUDITORY HALLUCINATION
You're dying. You're dying again, loser.
In the book, we see Dean's hallucinated thoughts "YOU'RE DYING AGAIN LOSER".
The ticking of the clocks becomes more intense, DEAN'S vision becoming blurry.
AUDITORY HALLUCINATION
You're dying.
AUDITORY HALLUCINATION
(mockingly) You gonna cry? Is the baby gonna cry? Is baby gonna cry?
The cacophony of sounds becomes too much for DEAN and he glares up at the clock on the wall.
