I'm great. This is great.

Stan: Penny, it's gonna be okay. You know, a lot more people die in the shower.

PENNY

Good to know. Thanks.

Stan: I didn't think we'd run into any weather, though.

PENNY

Look, can we just land? Please?

Stan: Couple minutes. All right? We're close. I'm sorry.

Outside the window, Penny sees a large shape.

PENNY

What was that?!

Stan: What?

PENNY

Something just flew by the window! It was huge!

Stan: Probably just a bird, okay?

PENNY

No! No, Stan, that was not a bird.

Stan: Well, then, what was it?

PENNY

I don't know.

Stan: Penny, there's nothing out there. I promise. Hey, just close your eyes, okay? It's okay. Just lean back. Try to relax. Think of someplace nice. Waves on a beach.

PENNY

Stan?!

Something pulls Stan out of the cabin, leaving PENNY alone in the plane.

PENNY

Oh! Oh, my God! No, no, no, no, no, no!

PENNY screams.

Bobby is under a car, doing something with a wrench.

Dean: Hey.

Dean holds up two beers.

Dean puts down one beer on the work bench and sits down, opening the other beer.

Bobby: Uh-huh.

Dean: What? Why the poopface?

Dean takes a drink. Bobby comes over.

Bobby: I'm glad he's better. I really am. But... That kid went straight-up Menendez on me not ten days ago. And now it's all just...erased? Sorry. I'm having a bit of a hard time even looking at him.

Dean: It wasn't Sam.

Bobby: Well, maybe it wasn't allSam, but it was him, Dean.

Dean: Well, what do you want to do, Bobby? We tell him everything?

Bobby: No. Just wish I could, that's all.

Dean: Yeah, but if we start throwing that crap at him, we don't know what's gonna happen. It could-it could cr*ck the wall.

Bobby: I know. I know.

Dean: So, you know what? As far as I'm concerned, it's a gift horse, and I'm not looking for teeth. I'm sending Death a damn fruit basket.

Bobby: He's gonna find out, you know. One way or another, someone'll tell him, or he'll figure it out on his own. He's not dumb. He should it hear it from us.

Dean: Can we just leave it alone for the moment, please?

Bobby puts up his hands and goes back to work with the wrench.

Bobby: Okay. But you better prep for the B side, 'cause when Sam realizes we're shining him, it ain't gonna be cute.

Dean takes another drink.

in Oregon.

Sam: Great. I'm in.

Dean: Whoa, whoa. You just got vertical.

Sam: Exactly. I'm up. I'm good.

Sam: Right. Because that's what youdid when you got back from hell.

Dean: All right. You, me, and Bobby.

[i]EXT. Impala - NIGHT

INT. Impala - NIGHT

Jethro Tull's "A New Day Yesterday" plays.

Sam is on the phone.

Sam: Uh, you got it, officer. Thank you. You too.

Sam hangs up the phone.

Sam: So, get this-besides the crash, there were two other disappearances in town this week.

Dean: Really?

Sam: Yeah, last weekend, a college girl vanished

from her apartment. On the seventeenth floor. Then, three days ago, another girl didn't make it home from school.

Dean: They know each other?

Sam: No. No connection. Just young and female, like the plane-crash girl.

Dean: What would disappear a girl out of the sky, anyway?

Sam: Good question.

Sam waits a moment.

Sam: So you never even tried, huh?

Dean: Tried?

Sam: To go live a life...after. You do remember you promised that, right?

Dean: Yeah, I remember.

Sam: So, why didn't you try?

Dean: What makes you think I didn't?

Sam: 'Cause look at you. Look at this. You're exactly the Same.

Dean: Yeah, you're probably right.

A long pause.

Dean: I was with them for a year-Lisa and Ben.

Sam: A year?

Dean nods.

Sam: So then what?

Dean: Didn't work out.

Dean turns up the music.

DESSERTINES' HOUSE

EXT. DESSERTINES' HOUSE - DAY

Dean: You're, uh...Penny Dessertine's sister, right?

PENNY's SISTER

Mm-hmm.

Sam: Uh, we'd just like to ask you a few questions.

PENNY's SISTER

Look, the cops already came by. I'm tired. So, if you don't mind --

Sam: I-I understand. Really, I do. I know how hard this must be. We'd just like to figure out what happened. This will be quick. I promise.

PENNY's SISTER

Okay. Fine. Come in.

INT. PENNY's HOUSE - DAY

PENNY's SISTER

Penny was very shy. To herself. Not at all what you'd call adventurous.

Dean: What, like flying through a lightning storm in a two-seater?

PENNY's SISTER

She was terrified of that thing. She just did it for Stan.

Sam: Stan?

PENNY's SISTER

They were just starting to get serious. She didn't want to seem, you know...Not interested. I just wish I'd told her to stay home. We don't even have a body to bury.

MOTEL ROOM

INT. MOTEL ROOM - DAY

Sam: Hey.

Dean: What do you got?

Sam: Uh...Well, looks like those other two missing girls both baked cookies for the lord.

Dean: What is that? Code?

Sam: No. Church choir, bake sales, promise-ring clubs-the works. They were good girls. But Penny wasn't even a Christian, so-

Dean: I have another theory. Penny's diary.

Sam: Did you steal that from her room?

Dean: I love that you even asked me that.

Sam: And why wouldn't I?

Dean: No reason. So girl-nappings. What if it's not about religion, what if it's about purity?

Sam: You mean you think they're all-

Dean: Virgins, Sam. Virgins.

Sam: Penny was twenty-two.

Dean: Yeah, with a pink room.

Sam: So?

Dean: And stuffed teddy bears.

Sam: Fine. But you really think-

Dean reads from PENNY's diary.

Dean: "I've decided I'm going to give Stan my most precious gift."

Sam: Wow. That sounded really creepy coming out of your mouth.

Dean: I think I delivered it.

Sam: You know, you-you could have led with 'the diary'. You know? Anyways, let's say you're right. Fine. Who would want virgins?

Dean: You got me. I prefer ladies with experience.

ST. Mary's

EXT. STREET IN FRONT OF ST. Mary's CENTER FOR CATHOLIC STUDIES - NIGHT

MELISSA and two other young women are walking together. MELISSA goes in a different direction. SOMETHING swoops down from the sky and att*cks her.

ACT TWO

HOSPITAL ROOM

INT. HOSPITAL - DAY'

MELISSA

It happened so fast.

Sam: It's all right, Melissa. What came at you? You can tell us.

MELISSA

It-it looked like a...a giant bat. You think I'm making it up, right? That's what the other man said.

Sam: Well, I'm not the other man.

MELISSA

It came right at me. It was huge. I swear. That's how I got this.

MELISSA pulls her gown forward to reveal large gashes on her back.

Sam: So, it att*cked. And then what happened?

MELISSA

I don't know. I passed out, and when I woke up, it was gone.

Sam: Is there anything else you can think of? Anything you can tell us, even if it doesn't seem

important?

MELISSA

Well, my ring got lost. Or else that thing stole it, if that makes any sense.

Dean: What kind of ring?

MELISSA

Gold. Promise ring.

Dean: Promise ring. So, uh...from, like, a church? Like

like a purity ring?

MELISSA

Yeah. Why?

Dean: I got to ask. Uh, Melissa... Look, nobody is, uh, judging anybody here, okay? Believe me. But...Should you really be wearing that ring?

MELISSA

Well, I-I mean, I-I am-

Dean: Really?

MELISSA

Matt Barne didn't count!

PARKING LOT

EXT. HOSPITAL PARKING LOT - DAY

Sam: So, what, you think Batman tried to r*pe her?

Dean: Well, he does carry a lot of rage. But he rejected her because she was already dehymenated, huh?

Sam: You think?

Dean: I think it just goes to show that being easy's pretty much all upside.

Sam: So, what kind of thing likes virgins and gold?

Dean: P. Diddy?

Sam: You know, it's comforting.

Dean: What's that?

Sam: I d*ed for a year, came back, and you're still not funny.

Dean: Shut up. I'm hilarious.

INT. MOTEL ROOM - DAY

Sam: This can't be possible.

Dean: Try me.

Sam: Um, I googled "fire," "claws," "flying," "stealing virgins," and "gold," and it all takes me

to the Same place.

Dean: Where?

Sam: World of Warcraft[i]fansites.

Dean: I don't know what that means.

Sam: Dragons, dude. See? Told you. Not possible.

Dean: Actually, it might be.

Sam: How? In what reality?

Dean: It's been a strange year. We should get a second opinion.

Bobby is cooking. The phone rings. He answers.

Bobby: Yeah?

Dean: Could you make a few calls?

Bobby: To who? Hogwarts?

Dean: Humor me.

Bobby: Fine.

Dean: You're a gentleman and a scholar.

[i]INT. MOTEL ROOM - DAY

Sam: You okay?

Dean: Yeah.

Sam: Bobby say anything?

Dean: Nope.

Sam is flipping through John's journal.

Dean: Dad never wrote anything about dragons. I promise. I'd remember if I read The Neverending Story[i]in there.

Sam: Hey, did we hunt a skinwalker lately?

Dean: Doesn't ring a bell. Why?

Sam: I don't know. Just...déjà vu or something. Are you sure? I could have sworn-

Dean: You got to remember, your eggs are still a little scrambled, right? But, yeah, I'm sure.

Sam: All right. Yeah. Never mind.

Dean's phone rings. He answers.

Dean: Hey, Bobby. What do you got?

Bobby: Can't believe she didn't jump right to mind. Dr. Visyak. Medieval Studies, S.F.U.

Dean: Dr. Visyak, S.F.U. Got it. Thanks. All right. I'm going to San Francisco, figure out how to k*ll these things. You figure out where they are.

Sam: W-wait. D-did Bobby say where they like to park?

Dean: No.

Sam: Great. Back to the lore.

Dean: Which says what? That they live in Middle-Earth?

Sam: No. Caves.

INT. Dr. VISYAK's HOUSE - DAY

Dr. VISYAK

Bobby Singer. Tell him something for me next time you see him.

Dean: Hmm?

Dr. VISYAK

Actually, just kick him in the jewels. That's more poetic.

Dean: No love lost between you two, huh?

Dr. VISYAK

No. Just the opposite.

Dean: Oh?

Dr. VISYAK

That's his story to tell. He's the idiot. So, what's this about?

Dean: Well, uh...Dragons.

Dr. VISYAK

Really?

Dean: What, no twelve-sided-dice joke?

Dr. VISYAK

We can joke about them because they've disappeared. But they aren't funny.At all.

Dean: Well, one just flew in stateside.

Dr. VISYAK

Are you sure?

Dean: Fits the lore to a tee.

Dr. VISYAK

But how? I mean, why? It's been seven hundred years.

Dean: Banner crop of crazy all the way around these days, doc.

Dr. VISYAK

So you want to know how to k*ll it.

Dean: That's right.

Dr. VISYAK

Well, you need a blade.

Dean: Uh... Okay. What kind of blade?

Dr. VISYAK

One forged with dragon's blood.

Dean: So you need one to k*ll one, but you got to k*ll one to make one. How does that work out?

Dr. VISYAK

Well, there aren't many dragon swords around anymore. Five or six, tops, worldwide.

I mean, there's the sword of St. George, and, of course, there's Excalibur. And there's-

Dean: You know a lot about this stuff, don't you?

Dr. VISYAK

Well, I sure as hell better. I have one in the basement.

Dean: You have one.

Dr. VISYAK

Finding it took two decades, countless hours, and some really bad sex with an eastern European ambassador, but, yeah.

Dr. VISYAK opens a door to a room containing a sword embedded in a boulder.

Dean: That is not real. Is that real? Is it Excalibur?

Dr. VISYAK

No. This...Is the Sword of Brunswick. Love of my life.

Dean: So, uh, what's with the cement shoe?

Dr. VISYAK

You know, binding sword to stone used to be all the rage. To protect them.

Dean: All right, well, how do we get this puppy out?

Dr. VISYAK laughs.

Dr. VISYAK

Well, come on. You know this one. We need a brave knight who's willing to step up and k*ll the beast.

Dean: Right. All right, well, I'll, uh, give it a whirl. Do you mind?

Dr. VISYAK

Oh.

Dean goes to pull the sword out of the stone, but is unable to and falls.

Dr. VISYAK

You okay?

Dean: Never better.

Dean tries again but fails.

Dean: Oh, son of a bitch! That's really on there!

Dr. VISYAK

Yeah, afraid so.

Dean: Well, I have another idea.

Dr. VISYAK

What?

Dean: Well, you're not gonna like it.

MOTEL ROOM

INT. MOTEL ROOM - DAY

Sam calls Bobby.

Bobby: Sam. Where's Dean?

Sam: Hey, um...He went to go see your friend. So, look, I'm trying to figure out where this thing lairs up. Uh, little help, maybe?

Bobby: What are the parameters?

Sam: Caves, basically. But there's nothing around for miles.

Bobby: So, less literal, then. What else you got local that's cold, dark, and wet?

Sam: Huh. Well, um...There's no subway lines. Sewers. That could be it. Thanks.

Bobby: All right.

Sam: Wait, Bobby. Wait. Um...You okay?

Bobby: Yeah, of course. Why? What's wrong?

Sam: Besides the way you been acting and talking? Nothing. Is there something I should know?

Bobby: No. All you need to know is where Godzilla's holed up.

Sam: Well, Bobby, what happened this last year?

Bobby: It had its moments. No more than usual. It's got nothing to do with you, Sam. How could it?

Sam: Right. 'Course.

Bobby: Call me if you need anything.

Sam: Ye-

Bobby hangs up. Sam sighs and closes his eyes.

Sam: Castiel, um...I'm back. So, if you got a minute...

Castiel: Sam. It's so good to see you alive.

Sam: Yeah. You too.

Castiel walks over to Sam, arms out in an attempt to hug Sam, but Sam sits down instead.

Sam: Um...Look, I-I would hug you, but-

Castiel: -that would be awkward.

Sam: Um...Was a crazy year, huh? I-I-I just talked to Bobby. He-he told me everything that happened.

Castiel: Frankly, I'm surprised that you survived. I was begging Dean not to do it.

Sam: Yeah. No, I-I-I can understand that.

Castiel: You know, it's a miracle it didn't k*ll you.

Sam: Yeah. Yeah, it's a miracle, all right.

Castiel: So, how does it feel?

Sam: What?

Castiel:

Well, to have your soul back, of course.

Sam: Right. Y-you mean 'cause I was walking around with no soul. Uh... Really good, Cas.

I'm real good. You know what? I'm-I'm just hazy on a few of the details, though. Um...

You think maybe you could...walk me through?

Dr. VISYAK's BASEMENT

INT. Dr. VISYAK's BASEMENT - DAY

Dr. VISYAK

You know what? I-I-I don't like this at all. You do realize that this is the single most valuable artifact you have ever touched.

Dean: It's also the only w*apon we got. Look, I know what I'm doing, okay? I actually learned it all from Bobby. Hey, whatever happened there, you know he's at least a genius at this.

Do you want me to k*ll that dragon or not?

Dr. VISYAK

Okay.

Dean: Trust me.

Dean kneels next to the rock and places C4 on it.

Dean: You rocks think you're so smart. All right. Welcome to the 21st century. All right, stand back.

Dean and Dr. VISYAK exit the room. Dean detonates the charges.

Dean: Okay. Now...

Dean pulls out the sword, which has broken in half.

Dean: You've got insurance for this, right?

INT. MOTEL ROOM - DAY

Sam: And what are we supposed to do with this, Dean? Give it a booster sh*t?

Dean: It's what we got. All right? We're just gonna have to get a little closer. That's all. Where are we on the caves?

Sam: Nowhere. Sewers, on the other hand...Here. Check this out.

Sam points at their map.

Sam: So, two of the disappearances happened within a mile of here. So I think we start there and work our way around.

Dean: Awesome. Who doesn't love sewers? Let's go.

Sam looks like he is about to say something.

Dean: What?

Sam: Nothing. Uh, yeah, let's go.

SEWER

INT. SEWERS

Dean: Ugh! God. Just when I get used to a smell, I hit a new flavor. Dude, we have been here

for hours. There is nothing. I think the lore is off. Hey, what if, uh...What if dragons like

nice hotels?

Sam: What is that?

Sam shines his flashlight at something behind Dean.

Dean: What?

Dean also shines his flashlight and they see that what they are looking at is a pile of gold.

Dean: Holy crap.

Dean picks up a gold watch from the pile.

Dean: Okay, maybe there are dragons here.

Dean starts to take some of the gold.

Sam: Wait. Dean...Not now. Check this out.

Sam walks off towards an altar he has found. There is a leather-bound book on the altar.

Sam: A little arts-and-crafty for a giant bat, right?

PENNY

Hello? Is someone there? Hello?

Sam and Dean find the girls trapped under the grates of the sewer.

Dean: Hey. We're gonna get you out.

PENNY

Quick. He's coming back.

Sam is pulled backwards by a DRAGON. Dean takes out the dragon sword.

DRAGON

Where do you think you're gonna stick that?

Dean cuts into the DRAGON's arm.

DRAGON

Aah! Where did you get that?

Dean: Comic-Con.

The DRAGON knocks the sword out of Dean's hand. The sword falls between the grates. The DRAGON approaches Dean, his hand glowing brightly. Sam distracts him. Dean grabs at the sword, which is just out of reach.

Dean: Come on, come on.

Dean is grabbed by another DRAGON. Sam kicks away the dragon he has been fighting.

DRAGON

Aah!

Sam reaches down and grabs the sword from between the grates. He stabs the dragon fighting Dean. The other DRAGON escapes.

Sam: Why don't you cut to the chase and just roll in it?

Dean: I rarely have wealth.

Sam: Dean...

Dean: Yeah?

Sam: I am so...so sorry. I can't even begin to say.

Dean: For what?

Sam: You know what.

Dean: Did Bobby...

Sam: Cas.

Dean: Cas. Friggin' child.

Sam: You should have told me, Dean.

Dean: You weren't supposed to know.

Sam: What I did? To Bobby? To you? Of course I should know.

Dean: Sam, Death didn't just shove your soul back in, okay? He put up the great wall of Sam between you and the things that you don't remember. And trust me when I say that the things you don't know could k*ll you. That's not a joke.

Sam: All right. But I have to set things right. Or what I can, anyway.

Dean: It wasn't you.

Sam: You know, I kind of feel like I got slipped the worst mickey of all time...and I woke up to find out that I had burnt the whole city down. And you can say it wasn't me, but...I'm the one with the zippo in my pocket, you know? So I'm not sure it's that cut and dry. And, look, I a-appreciate you trying to protect me. I really do. But I got to fix... What I got to fix. So I need to know what I did.

Dean: But you don't know how dangerous that could be.

Sam: What would you do? Right. Same thing.

Dean: Sam...

Bobby's LIVING ROOM

INT. Bobby's LIVING ROOM - DAY

Bobby: Now, as near as I can figure it, this dates back around the fourteenth century.

Sam: What language is it?

Bobby: Da Vinci code. Real obscure Latinate. Gonna take me my golden years to translate it all.

Oh, and, uh, FYI-that ain't paper.

Dean: What is it?

Sam: Monsters?

Bobby: It's monsterland. According to this, it goes by many names, most of which I can't pronounce, but I'm thinking you know Purgatory.

Dean: Purgatory? Awesome. Well, that is good to know. So, you're saying that these, uh, dragon freaks were squatting in the sewers and reading tone poems about purgatory?

Bobby: Oh, no, no, no. They're reading an instruction manual.

Dean: What?

Bobby: Yeah. If you're nuts enough to want access to a place that gnarly, this book will show you how to open a door.

Dean: Door to purgatory. Well, I know a demon who would have loved to have known about that. So, how do you open the door?

Bobby: Ask Cloverfield. I'm pretty sure he's got that page.

DRAGON 1

Ego coniuro vos, insolubiliter ad mei potenciam aligati! Ad me...Sine prestolacione venire...

Girl: Let me go! Please stop!

DRAGON 1

...Debeatis aperiat!

Girl: No! Please don't!

DRAGON

It'll go easier if you relax.

The DRAGONS throw the girl into the fiery pit below.

DRAGON

Huc sine mora debeas mater!

Bobby: It gets worse.

Sam: Worse?

Bobby: This ain't talking about how to take a vacation over there. This is all about opening a door to let something in.

Sam: Bring something here. What?

Bobby: I'm working on it.

Dean: Could you give us something?

Bobby: I got a name.

Dean: Okay.

Bobby: Mother.

Sam: Mother? M-mother of what? Mother of dragons?

Bobby: I wish. It says it a few times here. Mother of all.

The girl the dragons threw into the pit, rises back up, her eyes glowing red, and her legs burning like embers.

DRAGON 1

Welcome.

MOTHER OF ALL

You kept me waiting.

Dean: What the hell does "mother of all" mean?

Bobby: I don't know.

MOTHER OF ALL

We have so much to do. Let's get started.
