Teaser

THEN

Dean

Who are you?

Castiel

Castiel.

Dean: I mean, what are you?

Castiel

I'm an angel of the Lord.

Dean

Some angel you are.

Castiel

My true form . . . it can be overwhelming to humans. And so can my voice. You already knew that. Certain people, special people, can perceive my true visage.

Dean

And what visage are you in now, huh?

Castiel

This? This is . . . a vessel.

Dean

You're possessing some poor bastard?

Castiel

He's a devout man. He actually prayed for this.

. . .

Dean

Something major must have happened while I was downstairs. I come back, and you're BFF with a demon? Why do you trust her so much?

Sam: Because she saved my life.

. . .

Chuck: Sucking blood? You gotta know that's wrong.

Sam: I wish to God I could stop.

NOW

EXT. PIER – DAY

Dean is fishing at the end of a pier. Castiel appears.

Castiel

We need to talk.

Dean

I'm dreaming, aren't I?

Castiel

It's not safe here. Someplace more private.

Dean

More private? We're inside my head.

Castiel

Exactly. Someone could be listening.

Dean

Cas, what's wrong?

Castiel

Meet me here.

CAS hands Dean a piece of paper.

Castiel (CONT'D)

Go now.

Dean looks up and Castiel is gone from the pier.

INT. MOTEL ROOM – NIGHT

Dean wakes up with a gasp.

INT. WAREHOUSE – SamE NIGHT

Dean and Sam walk through the warehouse, flashlights on.

Sam: Well, what did he say, Dean? What was so important?

Dean

If I knew, would I be here?

Dean and Sam ascend a set of stairs.

Dean (CONT'D)

What the hell?

Sam: It looks like a b*mb went off.

Dean

There was a fight here.

Sam: Between who?

Dean's flashlight beam lands on a symbol painted in blood on the wall.

Dean

Check it out. Look familiar?

Sam: Yeah, it does.

Dean

Anna used something like that to wish the angels back to the cornfield.

Sam: So, what? Cas was fighting angels?

Dean

I don't know.

Dean finds Castiel in the rubble.

Dean (CONT'D)

Sam. Cas? Cas. Hey, Cas?

JIMMY

What's . . . ? What's . . . ? What's going on?

Dean

Just take it easy. Take it easy.

JIMMY

Oh. No.

Sam: Cas, you okay?

JIMMY

Ugh. Castiel. I'm not Castiel. It's me.

Sam: Who's 'me'?

JIMMY

Jimmy. My name's Jimmy.

Dean

Where the hell is Castiel?

JIMMY

He's gone.

Act One

INT. MOTEL ROOM – NIGHT

JIMMY sits at a table and devours a hamburger while Dean and Sam watch.

JIMMY

Mmm.

Dean

You mind slowing down? You're gonna give me angina.

JIMMY

I'm hungry.

Sam: When's the last time you ate?

JIMMY

I don't know. Months.

JIMMY takes another bite of his hamburger and then continues to eat ravenously.

JIMMY

Mmm. Mmm. Mmm!

Sam: What the hell happened back there? It looked like an angel battle royale.

JIMMY

All I remember is a flash of light and I, uh . . . I woke up and I was just, you know, like, me again.

Dean

So, what? Cas just ditched out of your meat suit?

JIMMY

I really don't know.

Sam: You remember anything about being possessed? Anything at all?

JIMMY

Yeah, bits and pieces. I mean, angel inside of you, it's kinda like being chained to a comet.

Dean

Ah, that doesn't sound like much fun.

JIMMY

Understatement.

Sam: Cas said he wanted to tell us something. Please tell me you remember that.

JIMMY

Sorry.

Dean

Come on, what do you know?

JIMMY

My name is Jimmy Novak. I'm from Pontiac, Illinois.

FLASHBACK – PONTIAC, ILLINOIS – ONE YEAR AGO

INT. JIMMY's HOUSE, DINING ROOM – NIGHT

JIMMY (V.O): I have a family.

JIMMY, Amelia (his wife), and CLAIRE (his daughter) are sitting down to dinner. CLAIRE reaches for some food.

JIMMY

Claire.

JIMMY, Amelia, and CLAIRE join hands and bow their heads to say Grace.

JIMMY

Bless this food, oh, Lord, and ourselves to thy loving service that we may always continue in thy faith and fear to the honor and glory of thy name. Amen.

Amelia and CLAIRE (TOGETHER)

Amen.

INT. JIMMY's HOUSE, DEN – SamE NIGHT

JIMMY is asleep in his armchair with the TV on a religious channel.

RELIGIOUS Man ON TV

I could see my head sticking out from underneath the front bumper. My eyes were closed, my head was turned to the right side, and on each side of me is an angel, and, uh –

The TV goes to static, waking JIMMY up. He stands.

JIMMY

What the heck?

JIMMY tries to turn off the TV, but is unsuccessful. The sound of the static becomes high pitched and JIMMY falls to his knees and covers his ears. Eventually, he falls to the ground and suffers convulsions.

PRESENT DAY

EXT. MOTEL – SamE NIGHT

Sam and Dean stand outside.

Sam: So, what do we do?

Dean

What do you mean? The guy's got a family. We buy him a bus ticket, send him home.

Sam: I don't know about that. Dean, he's the only lead we got.

Dean

He doesn't know anything.

Sam: Are you 100 percent about that?

Dean

You think he's lying? What, you wanna go Guantanamo on the guy?

Sam: Dean, maybe he doesn't even know what he knows.

Dean

Huh?

Sam: I say, at least we get him to Bobby's. Maybe all he needs is hypnosis or a psychic. Or hell, maybe Cas will just drop back into him.

Dean

I don't know, man.

Sam: Dean, back there, that was angel-on-angel v*olence. Now, I don't know what's going on, but it's big. And we can't just let the only lead we got just skip out.

Dean shakes his head.

Sam: What?

Dean

You remember when our job was helping people? Like, getting them back to their families?

Sam: You think I don't want to help him? I'm just being realistic. I mean, hell, we're doing him a favor.

Dean

How?

Sam: Dean, if we want to question the guy, you can damn well bet the demons do, too.

Dean sighs in defeat.

INT. MOTEL ROOM – SamE NIGHT

JIMMY

The hell are you talking about, I can't go home?

Dean

There's a good chance you have a bull's-eye on your back.

JIMMY

What? From who?

Dean

Demons.

JIMMY

Come on, that's crazy. What do they want with me?

Dean

I don't know, information, maybe?

JIMMY

I don't know anything.

Dean

I know, but –

JIMMY

Look, I'm done, okay? With demons, angels, all of it. I just want to go home.

Dean

We understand.

JIMMY

I don't think that you do understand. I've been sh*t and stabbed and healed, and my body has been dragged all over the Earth. By some miracle, I'm out, and I am done. I've given enough, okay?

Sam: Look, all we're saying is that until we figure this out, the safest place is with us.

JIMMY

How long?

Sam: We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

JIMMY shakes his head and tries to move past Sam to get to the door.

Dean

Where are you going?

JIMMY

To see my wife and daughter, okay?

Sam: No, you're not. You're just going to put those people in danger.

JIMMY

So, what, now I'm a prisoner?

Sam: Harsh way to put it.

INT. MOTEL ROOM – LATER THE SamE NIGHT

Sam looks at JIMMY and Dean, both of whom appear to be asleep. Sam leaves the room, and JIMMY gets up. JIMMY sneaks past Dean and leaves the motel room.

EXT. MOTEL ROOM – SamE NIGHT

JIMMY leaves the room unnoticed by Sam, who stands by a vending machine. Sam opens a flask of blood, pours the blood out onto his hand, and licks it up greedily.

Act Two

INT. MOTEL ROOM – NEXT MORNING

Sam quickly packs a duffle bag while Dean brushes his teeth.

Sam: Dean. Would you hurry up?

Dean laughs, toothbrush still in his mouth.

Sam (CONT'D)

Sorry, uh, this is funny to you?

Dean

Mr. Big-Bad-Prison-Guard, Jimmy McMook give you the slip? Yeah, it's pretty funny. What were you doing, anyway?

Sam: I was getting a Coke.

Dean

Was it a refreshing Coke?

Sam: Can we just go, please?

INT. BUS – SamE DAY

JIMMY looks out the window of a bus.

FLASHBACK – ONE YEAR AGO

INT. JIMMY's HOUSE, KITCHEN – NIGHT

JIMMY is preparing dinner when the radio goes to static. He approaches the radio and listens to the static. The scene shifts and we see JIMMY with his hand in a pot of boiling water. His expression is calm. Amelia comes home holding paper bags and drops them when she sees what he is doing.

Amelia

What the hell are you doing?

JIMMY

It's okay. I'm okay.

Amelia

Jimmy.

JIMMY

Look.

Amelia

What's wrong with you?

JIMMY

Nothing's wrong. He asked me to do it.

Amelia

Who asked you to do it?

JIMMY

Castiel, to prove my faith. Look. I'm fine. It's a miracle.

Amelia

Who's Castiel?

PRESENT DAY

INT. BUS – SamE DAY

JIMMY is still looking out the window of a bus.

INT. Impala – SamE DAY

Dean is driving while Sam sits beside him. Neither speaks. Anna suddenly appears in the backseat.

Anna: Hey, guys.

Dean

Aah! Jeez.

Dean jerks the steering wheel and the Impala swerves before he gets it back under control.

Anna: Smooth.

Dean

You ever try calling ahead?

Anna: I like the element of surprise.

Dean

Well, you look terrific.

Anna: Um, yeah, not the most appropriate time, Dean. You let Jimmy get away?

Dean

Talk to ginormo here.

Anna: Sam. You seem different.

Sam: Me? I don't know. Heh. A haircut?

Anna: That's not what I'm talking about.

Anna gives Sam a meaningful look and he looks away. Then she looks at Dean.

Anna (CONT'D)

So, what'd Jimmy tell you? He remember anything?

Dean

Why? What's going on?

Anna: It's Cas. He got sent back home. Well, more like dragged back.

Dean

To heaven? That's not a good thing?

Anna: No. That's a very bad thing. Painfully, awfully bad. He must have seriously pissed someone off.

Dean

Cas said he had something to tell me. Something important.

Anna: What?

Dean

I don't know.

Anna: Does Jimmy know?

Dean

I don't think so.

Anna: You don't think so? Whatever it is, it's huge. You gotta find out for sure.

Sam: That's why we're going after Jimmy.

Anna: That's why you shouldn't have let him go in the first place. He's probably dead already.

EXT. JIMMY's HOUSE – DAY

JIMMY approaches his house. He sees his daughter, CLAIRE, through the window working on homework. She calls over her shoulder, and Amelia comes forward to help her.

FLASHBACK – ONE YEAR AGO

INT. JIMMY's HOUSE, DEN – NIGHT

JIMMY sits on a couch and speaks with his wife, Amelia.

Amelia

Take the pills.

JIMMY

I'm not sick.

Amelia

Jimmy, take the pills.

JIMMY

I know that this is hard to understand, but he chose me.

Amelia

Castiel, the angel?

JIMMY

He's spoken to me now, Ames, a dozen times. Hey, you believe in God, don't you?

Amelia

What kind of question is that? Of course.

JIMMY

And angels?

Amelia

Yes, Jimmy.

JIMMY

So, why is it then so hard for you to believe that they're talking to me?

Amelia

Jimmy, you sell ad time for A.M. radio.

JIMMY

No, he said that I'm special. It's in my blood.

Amelia

What does that mean, it's in your blood, hm?

JIMMY

He didn't say. He just said that God has chosen me for a higher purpose.

Amelia

To do what?

JIMMY

No, it's God's will. Not really my place to question it. Hey, come here. This is a blessing. This is the most important thing that ever happened to me.

Amelia

I thought we were the most important things to ever happen to you.

JIMMY

Hey, have faith.

Amelia

Jimmy, you're scaring me.

JIMMY

God will provide.

Amelia

If you won't take your pills and if you won't get help, then I'm going to take Claire to my mother's in the morning.

Amelia leaves the room and goes upstairs. JIMMY gets dressed in the clothes that Castiel wears and leaves the house. He stands outside and addresses the sky.

JIMMY

So, I wanna to help you. I'm about to lose my family here if you don't tell me how . . . Please, Castiel, just talk to me. What do you want from me?

A soft light appears and illuminates JIMMY from above. Faint whispers can be heard. JIMMY looks up and appears to be listening.

JIMMY

Yes, I understand. Promise my family will be okay and I'll do it . . . Then, yes.

A bright beam of light shines down on JIMMY. He looks up into the light. When the light disappears, he is Castiel. Castiel lifts a hand and looks at it. The front door of JIMMY's house opens behind him and CLAIRE walks outside.

CLAIRE

Daddy?

Castiel turns and looks at CLAIRE. He appears briefly confused. Then he turns his back to her again.

Castiel

I am not your father.

Castiel walks away. CLAIRE watches him leave.

PRESENT DAY

EXT. JIMMY's HOUSE – SamE DAY

JIMMY rings the doorbell. Amelia answers the door.

Amelia

We, uh – we stopped looking for you.

JIMMY

I'm so sorry.

Amelia

You were dead. We, uh – we thought you were dead.

JIMMY

I'm okay.

INT. JIMMY's HOUSE – SamE DAY

JIMMY and Amelia sit in the den. CLAIRE comes down the stairs and approaches them.

Amelia

Claire. Room. Now.

JIMMY

Can I see her?

Amelia

No. No. I don't know yet. It's been almost a year, you know?

JIMMY

I know, I know.

Amelia

Yeah. Think your daughter would have wanted to know you were okay?

JIMMY

I was in a psych clinic. I just wanted to get myself straight before seeing you.

Amelia

Oh. And no telephones, or – ?

JIMMY

No, I know. You're right. I'm – I'm so sorry. But it's all – it's all over now. I mean, I'm – I'm really okay.

Amelia

What does that mean?

JIMMY

I was – I was confused, Amelia. I was completely delusional. And I thought – I thought God was calling me to something and I thought that it was important, and I was wrong. I was such an idiot. Heaven, hell . . . none of that matters. The only thing that's important to me is you and Claire. And I – I can't undo what I've done. But I just wanna come home again.

Amelia

I don't know if I can do that. Not yet.

JIMMY

I mean, whatever you're comfortable with. Maybe we could start with something smaller?

Amelia

Like what?

JIMMY

I don't know. Dinner?

INT. GAS STATION – NIGHT

Sam talks on his cell phone while Dean stands outside, gassing up the Impala.

Sam: Where the hell are you, Ruby? This isn't funny anymore. I'm all out. Stop whatever you're doing. Call me. I need more.

INT. JIMMY's HOUSE, DINING ROOM – SamE NIGHT

CLAIRE approaches JIMMY.

CLAIRE

Hi, Daddy.

JIMMY

Hi, baby.

CLAIRE and JIMMY embrace. Amelia enters the room with a platter of sandwiches.

Amelia

Okay, so we have turkey and roast beef. Better be okay. It's all we have.

JIMMY

Oh, it's fine. It's more than fine. Should we sit?

Amelia

Yeah.

JIMMY, Amelia, and CLAIRE sit at the dining room table. JIMMY reaches for a sandwich.

JIMMY

It's perfect.

CLAIRE

Daddy, aren't you going to say Grace?

JIMMY

No, honey, I don't think I am.

CLAIRE

Why are you crying?

JIMMY

Because I'm happy.

The doorbell rings and Amelia gets up to answer the door.

Amelia (O.S.)

Hey, Roger.

Roger (O.S.)

Hey, Ames. How you doing?

Amelia (O.S.)

Good.

Roger: Am I crazy or did I just see your husband wander in here about half an hour ago?

Amelia

Yeah, uh, you did. But, Roger, now is not a good time.

JIMMY approaches and Roger opens his arms. They embrace.

Roger: Hey, there he is. Son of a bitch. What the hell happened to you?

JIMMY

Ah, long story. But it's over.

Roger: Yeah?

JIMMY

I'm good.

Roger: Can I talk to you?

Amelia

Can I get you a beer?

Roger: That'd be good. Thanks.

Amelia leaves JIMMY and Roger to speak in private.

Roger: Buddy, you scared the hell out of a lot of people.

JIMMY

I know. I know.

Roger: So really, what happened?

JIMMY

Honestly, worst year of my life and you wouldn't believe a word of it, but it's all okay now. I swear.

Roger: Actually, no, it's not.

JIMMY

What do you mean?

Roger: Well, I mean I'm gonna gut your daughter while you watch.

Roger's eyes turn black. He is a demon. He smiles and his eyes shift back to normal just as Amelia approaches and hands him a beer.

Amelia

Here you go.

While Roger is distracted, JIMMY hits him over the head with a candlestick and then continues to hit him after he has crumpled to the ground. Amelia watches, in shock.

Amelia

What are you doing? Jimmy, stop!

JIMMY

He's a demon! Run!

Amelia

Stop it!

JIMMY

Run!

Act Three

INT. JIMMY's HOUSE, UTILITY ROOM – SamE NIGHT

JIMMY pushes Amelia and CLAIRE into a utility room and begins searching the shelves.

JIMMY

Where is it?

Amelia

Roger was your best friend.

JIMMY

Roger was a demon, damn it.

JIMMY finds a bag of salt and pours it in a line across the doorway.

JIMMY (CONT'D)

Don't cross this line!

Amelia

Jimmy, you thought you were better, but you are so sick.

JIMMY

Look, I am not crazy.

Amelia

You stay the hell away from us!

JIMMY

This is all very, very real.

Amelia

Stay the hell away from us!

JIMMY

Claire, sweetie –

Amelia

No! Run. Leave her alone, I said.

While JIMMY and Amelia struggle, CLAIRE runs out of the utility room. JIMMY breaks free and goes after her.

JIMMY

Stay here.

Amelia

Stay away from her.

JIMMY

Claire!

JIMMY and Amelia run out and into the dining room, where Roger has CLAIRE. He has a Kn*fe against CLAIRE's neck.

JIMMY

Damn it.

Roger: Hey, pal. Told you I'd gut the bitch.

Amelia

Roger.

CLAIRE

Daddy?

JIMMY

Just let her go, okay?

Roger: Now, me, I would, but the missus, she has other ideas.

Amelia

No!

CLAIRE

Daddy!

Mrs. Roger grabs JIMMY and throws him to the ground. She punches him and then looks over her shoulder. Amelia sees that her eyes are black.

Amelia

Oh, my God. No!

Amelia jumps on Mrs. Roger, but is thrown back. Suddenly, Dean appears behind Roger and cuts his throat with Ruby's Kn*fe, k*lling him. Mrs. Roger gets up, but is quickly caught by Sam, who stretches out his hand and uses his psychic abilities to begin exorcising her. Dean looks back at Sam.

Sam: Go. Get them out of here.

Dean

Go, go.

JIMMY and CLAIRE flee. Sam tries to exorcise Mrs. Roger, but is unsuccessful. Mrs. Roger smiles and approaches him.

Mrs. Roger

Aw. Can't get it up, can you, Sam?

Dean

No, but I can.

Before Dean can s*ab her with Ruby's Kn*fe, the demon flees its host body. Dean grabs Sam and they run out to the Impala.

Dean: Come on, come on, come on, come on.

EXT. JIMMY's HOUSE – SamE NIGHT

Sam and Dean run out to the Impala, where JIMMY and CLAIRE wait.

JIMMY

Thank god.

Dean

Where's your wife?

Amelia

Right here.

Dean

Let's go.

They ALL get into the Impala and peel away.

EXT. PARKING GARAGE – SamE NIGHT

JIMMY, Dean, and Sam stand outside the Impala. Amelia and CLAIRE sit together in the back seat of the Impala.

JIMMY

You were right.

Dean

I'm sorry we were.

JIMMY

I'm telling you, I don't know anything.

Dean

I don't think they're inclined to believe you.

Sam: And even if they did, you're a vessel. They're still gonna wanna know what makes you tick.

Dean

Which means vivisection, if they're feeling generous.

Sam: I'm gonna tell you once again, you're putting your family in danger. You have to come with us.

JIMMY

How long? And don't give me that "cross that bridge when we get to it" crap.

Sam: Don't you get it? Forever. The demons will never stop. You can never be with your family. So you either get as far away from them as possible or you put a b*llet in your head. And that's how you keep your family safe. But there's no getting out and there's no going home.

Dean

Well, don't sugarcoat it, Sam.

Sam: I'm just telling him the truth, Dean. Someone has to.

JIMMY opens the back door of the Impala to speak to Amelia. CLAIRE is asleep next to her.

Amelia

Hey. So I pretty much owe you the biggest apology ever.

JIMMY

No, you don't.

Amelia

Yes, I do. I'm so sorry, Jimmy. And I will never, ever forgive myself for letting you walk out that door.

JIMMY

Well, you did what any rational person would have done. I mean, hell, I thought I was crazy half the time.

Amelia

So demons, huh?

JIMMY

Yeah.

Amelia

Can we . . . ? Can we even go home, or . . . ? What are we gonna do?

JIMMY

These boys are gonna get you a car, don't ask me how, and you're gonna take Claire to Carl and Sally's as fast as you can.

Amelia

Wait. What about you? . . . No, I'm not going anywhere without you, Jimmy.

JIMMY

Listen to me. Every moment that I'm with you, you and Claire are in danger.

Amelia

I don't care. We are not splitting up again.

JIMMY

We don't have a choice.

Amelia

For how long?

JIMMY

We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

Amelia

We're a family.

JIMMY

They will k*ll you, Amelia, and they'll k*ll Claire. You just have to get as far away from me as you can.

JIMMY and Amelia embrace while Dean watches. The scene shifts and Sam is hotwiring a car while Amelia waits. JIMMY and CLAIRE stand next to each other.

Sam: Okay, so, uh, here's your car.

JIMMY

Hey. Take care of your mom, okay, bub?

CLAIRE

Okay.

JIMMY gets in the back seat of the Impala and Dean and Sam get in the front. They drive away while Amelia and CLAIRE watch.

CLAIRE

Why is he leaving again?

Amelia turns to CLAIRE and slaps her face. CLAIRE screams and Amelia's eyes turn black. She is a demon.

Amelia

Because it's just not my day, is it? You little bitch.

INT. Impala – SamE NIGHT

It's raining as Dean drives. JIMMY is asleep in the back seat.

Dean

What the hell happened back there?

Sam: What?

Dean

You practically fainted trying to gank a demon.

Sam: Okay, I didn't faint. I got a little dizzy.

Dean

Well, you can call it whatever you want. Point is, you used to be strong enough to k*ll Alastair. Now you can't even k*ll a stunt-demon number three?

Sam: What do you want me to say about it, Dean?

Dean

Well for starters, what's going on with your mojo? I mean, it's yo-yoing all over the place. I'm not trying to pick a fight here, okay? I just – you're scaring me, man.

Sam: I'm scaring myself.

Sam's cellphone rings and he answers it.

Sam (CONT'D)

Hello? . . . Who is this?

Sam turns and holds the phone out to JIMMY.

Sam (CONT'D)

Hey. It's your wife.

JIMMY wakes up and takes the phone from Sam.

JIMMY

Amelia? . . . Oh, my God.

Act Four

EXT. WAREHOUSE – SamE NIGHT

JIMMY, Dean, and Sam get out of the Impala.

Dean

Alright, they're expecting you to come alone. That's exactly what you're gonna do.

Sam: We'll work our way through the catwalks. We'll be right behind you.

Dean

All you gotta do is stay calm and stall. Let us do our job.

JIMMY

You want me to stay calm? This is my family we're talking about.

Dean

Listen to me, this will work. You understand? Nobody's gonna get hurt.

JIMMY

Yeah, whatever. Give me a minute, okay?

JIMMY walks away from Dean and Sam, towards the warehouse.

Sam: There's no way they're expecting him to come alone, Dean. You know this is probably a trap.

Dean

Yeah, I know. That's why I have a plan.

EXT. WAREHOUSE – SamE NIGHT

JIMMY walks towards the warehouse, shouting at the sky.

JIMMY

Castiel, you son of a bitch! You promised me my family would be okay. You promised you were gonna take care of them. I gave you everything you asked me to give. I gave you more. This is the thanks I get? This is what you do? This is your heaven? Help me, please. You promised, Cas. Just help me.

Nobody answers and JIMMY shakes his head.

JIMMY (CONT'D)

Typical.

JIMMY enters the warehouse. Amelia stands next to CLAIRE, who is tied to a chair and unconscious.

Amelia

Hi, honey. You're home.

JIMMY

Listen, I'm – I'm begging you here. You do whatever you want with me, but my wife and daughter, they're just – they're not a part of this.

Amelia

Oh, they're a big part of this, Jimmy. And P.S. You should've come alone.

JIMMY

I am alone.

Amelia

Oh, you're such a liar. Like I didn't think you'd bring Heckle and Jeckle, hmm?

Sam and Dean are led into the room by three DEMONs who hold them prisoner.

Sam: Nice plan, Dean.

Dean

Yeah, well, nobody bats 1,000.

Amelia

Got the Kn*fe?

One of the DEMONs holding Sam holds up Ruby's Kn*fe to show her.

Amelia (CONT'D)

And you know what's funny?

Dean

You wearing a soccer mom?

Amelia

Is I was actually bummed to get this detail, picking up an empty vessel. Sort of like a milk run. Now look who landed in my lap.

Sam: Yeah, well, you got us, okay? Let these people go.

Amelia

Oh, Sam. It's easy to act chivalrous when your Wonder Girl powers aren't working, huh? Now for the punch line. Everybody dies.

Amelia holds up a g*n and sh**t JIMMY in the gut. He falls to his knees. Amelia turns to one of the DEMONs holding Sam.

Amelia (CONT'D)

Waste Little Orphan Annie.

Amelia leaves the room while the Demon walks around JIMMY and towards CLAIRE, who is still tied to a chair and unconscious. The Demon picks up a pipe and swings it towards CLAIRE, but she suddenly grabs the pipe in one hand and places the other hand on the Demon's forehead. The Demon screams as he is exorcised in a bright light. Using the distraction, Sam and Dean turn on the DEMONs holding them. While they struggle, CLAIRE, who is now possessed by Castiel, burns away the ropes holding her. JIMMY lies on the ground, bleeding, and looks at her in horror.

JIMMY

Castiel.

Sam and Dean continue to fight the DEMONs. Sam gets Ruby's Kn*fe back from the female Demon and holds her down, staring at her neck. Dean is being pummeled by the male Demon, when Castiel approaches and places her hand on his head, exorcising him. Sam cuts the neck of the female Demon and drinks her blood. He turns, mouth still bloody, to see Dean and Castiel (still in CLAIRE's body) watching him in horror. Sam turns back and stabs the demon through the heart with Ruby's Kn*fe, k*lling her, and then turns towards Dean and Castiel again. He stands and holds out his hand, just in time to catch Amelia and exorcise her with his recharged psychic powers. Dean holds Amelia up and Castiel goes over to JIMMY, who is dying from his g*nsh*t wound.

Castiel

Of course we keep our promises. Of course you have our gratitude. You served us well. Your work is done. It's time to go home now. Your real home. You'll rest forever in the fields of the Lord. Rest now, Jimmy.

JIMMY

No. Claire?

Castiel

She's with me now. She's chosen. It's in her blood, as it was in yours.

JIMMY

Please, Castiel. Me, just take me. Take me, please.

Dean, Sam, and Amelia approach, but hold back when they see Castiel (still in CLAIRE's body) and JIMMY talking.

Castiel

I wanna make sure you understand. You won't die or age. If this last year was painful for you, picture a hundred, a thousand more like it.

JIMMY

It doesn't matter. You take me. Just take me.

Castiel

As you wish.

Castiel touches JIMMY's face and a bright light emanates from his eyes and mouth. CLAIRE drops to her hands and knees, and Castiel, now in JIMMY's body, stands up. He walks past Amelia and stands next to Sam and Dean. Amelia runs to CLAIRE and embraces her. Amelia and Castiel's eyes meet, and then he turns to go.

Dean

Cas, hold up. What were you gonna tell me?

Castiel

I learned my lesson while I was away, Dean. I serve heaven, I don't serve man, and I certainly don't serve you.

Castiel walks away while Dean and Sam watch.

Act Five

INT. Impala – SamE NIGHT

Dean drives through the rain in silence.

Sam: All right, let's hear it.

Dean

What?

Sam: Drop the b*mb, man. You saw what I did. Come on, stop the car, take a swing.

Dean

I'm not gonna take a swing.

Sam: Then scream, chew me out.

Dean

I'm not mad, Sam.

Sam: Come on. You're not mad?

Dean

Nope.

Sam: Right. Look, at least let me explain myself.

Dean

Don't. I don't care.

Sam: You don't care?

Dean

What do you want me to say, that I'm disappointed? Yeah, I am. But, mostly, I'm just tired, man. I'm done. I am just done.

Sam's cellphone rings. He answers it.

Sam: Hey, Bobby.

We see Bobby leaving the panic room, a bed set up behind him.

Bobby

Hey, you and your brother better shag ass to my place ASAP.

Sam: What's going on?

Bobby

The apocalypse, genius. Now get your asses over here.

Sam hangs up his phone.

Dean

What'd he say?

INT. Bobby's HOUSE – NIGHT

Bobby, Sam, and Dean approach the door to the panic room.

Bobby

Well, thanks for shaking a tail.

Dean

Yeah, you got it.

Sam opens the door.

Bobby

Go on inside. I wanna show you something.

Sam walks into the panic room while Dean and Bobby hang back.

Sam: All right. So, uh, what's the big demon problem?

Bobby

You are. This is for your own good.

Dean and Bobby close and lock the door, and Sam walks to the barred window.

Sam: Guys? Hey, hey. What?

Bobby closes and latches the window.

Sam (CONT'D)

This isn't funny. Guys! Hey! Guys?

FADE TO BLACK.
