13x06 - Tombstone

Post by bunniefuu »

Jack: I can't control...

Clark: Mom!

...whatever this is.

Sam: Jack is a nephilim.

He's Lucifer's son.

- I'm sorry.

- What?

Will you tell them that I'm sorry?

Sam: Jack is not evil.

He's just a kid.

We need to help Jack learn how to control his powers.

Jack: So I don't hurt anyone anymore.

[ Electricity zaps ]

Oh! [ Grunts ]

Sam: See this pencil?

I want you to move it with your mind.

I...can't.

I can't do the one good thing you want me to.

I must be evil.

No!

It doesn't matter what you are.

[ g*nsh*t ]

It matters what you do.

[ Grunts ]

You did good today.

Dean: There are zombies here...

[ Grunts ]

...which means head sh*t.

People come back?

[ Gasps ]

No!

Dean: What gets b*rned stays dead.

- Goodbye, Cass.

- Castiel.

Castiel.



What is this place?

Angels and demons, you all come here when you die.

What are you?

Oh, I'm just your friendly neighborhood cosmic entity.

Having you awake, it's like a gnat.

If having me awake causes you pain, send me back to Earth.

Pretty smart.



What?



[ Train whistle blowing in distance ]

[ Owl hoots, insects chirp ]

[ Train whistle continues blowing ]

[ Rustling ]

What the hell?

Come on.

[ Owl hoots ]

Where'd he go?

[ Rustling ]

He's messin' with us.

He's too damn fast.

[ Rustling ]

Not faster than b*ll*ts.





[ Rustling ]

All right, you wait here.

I'm-a flush him out.

[ Owl hoots ]

[ Rumbling ]

Aah!

Sarge?



Aw, hell.



[ Siren wailing in distance ]

Cass, is that really you?

No. You're -- you're dead.

Yeah, I was.

But then I...annoyed an ancient cosmic being so much that he sent me back.

I don't even know what to say.

I do.

Welcome home, pal.





How long was I gone?

Too damn long.

Where were you? In Heaven?

No.

No, I was in the Empty.

Really?

Apparently, it's where angels and demons go when they die.

What was it like?

Castiel: Well, it's dark and...nothing.

[ Whoosh ]

It's like...nothing.

I was sleeping, and then I heard a voice that said my name, and I woke up.

I thought you... had done something.

No, we... we didn't even think we could bring you back.

So who was it?

Chuck -- uh, God?

No.

No, he has no power in the Empty.

Well, then, who does?

Jack.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

How'd it go?

Well...

Sam: Jack, um...

What's wrong?

Hello, Jack.

Castiel?

[ Sighs ] Yeah, it's me.

No.

We b*rned your body, and what's b*rned stays dead.

How...

Well, that's the question we've been askin'.

Jack... did you, uh...

Did you bring Cass back?

I don't know.

I wanted him back. I... begged for him to come back, but...

Well, here he is.

Because of me?

We don't know.

We don't know, Jack.

But we -- we -- we think maybe.

Thank you, Jack.

I missed you so much.

Sam and Dean tell me you're doing well.

I am.

I...

Watch this.

- [ Jack chuckles ]

- Sam: Wow.

I can move the pencil.

And...I found a case.

Hunter's case.

What kind of a -- Zombies.

[ Whispers ] I know what zombies are now.

[ Normal voice ] You see?

Wait. Where'd you learn to do that?

By watching you. And Sam.

Three days ago, a vintage pocket watch with a personal inscription was sold at a pawn shop.

But when they went to authenticate it, they found out that it'd been buried with its owner...

years ago.

And when they checked out the grave, it was empty.

Which means...

[ Taps key ]

the dead are rising in Dodge City, Kansas.



Right. O-or maybe it's a-a grave robbery, but...

Oh.

Yeah, but we should probably check it out.

Wait. Really?

Yeah, we've done more on less.

Besides Dodge City's kind of, uh, kind of awesome.



All right, well... two salty hunters, one half-angel kid, and a dude who just came back from the dead. Again.

Team Free Will . .

Here we go.



Dean: All right, this is supposed to be the best room in the joint.

[ Switch clicks ]

Oh, ho!

The Wild Bill suite.

[ Laughing ]

Wow.

[ Door closes ]

Pretty cool, right?

Dude! Check it out, check it out, check it out.

Clay Allison -- g*n fighter extraordinaire, right?

And, uh, Curly Bill Brocius, which -- now, now, now, little fun fact here -- was k*lled by Wyatt Earp himself.

Not kidding. [ Laughs ]

Johnny Ringo,

Billy the Kid. Oh, look!

He really likes cowboys.

Hey, big guy. How you doin'?

That's...

What's going on, Calamity Jane?

Yes. Yes, he does.

[ Laughs ] Doc Holliday!

Hey-oh!

This is awesome.

All right, I say quick shower, steak dinner, and then tomorrow, we hit up the cemetery.

Sounds like a plan.

[ Saloon doors creak ]

Dean:

Oh, yes! Stirrup hangers!

You can have the couch if you want.

[ Dean speaks indistinctly ]

I don't sleep much.

I don't sleep at all.

Sam: Still can't believe you brought your own hat.

Well, I can't believe you didn't.

You're in a good mood, huh?

[ Unzips bag ]

Yeah. And?

Nothing.

No, no, I-I-I just, uh... you've been having a rough go, so it's... it's good to see you smile.

Well, I said I needed a big win.

We got Cass back. That's a pretty damn big win.

Yeah.

Fair enough.

[ Static crackles ]

Run that plate, would you, Sophie?

Copy, Carl. Will do.

Let's see who this pile of junk belongs to.

[ Door opens ]



[ Static crackles ] Carl, we got a match on that plate. Looks like the truck was stolen.

[ Rustling ]

[ Gasps ]

[ Truck door slams ]

[ Gasps ]

[ Rustling ]

[ Breathing heavily ]

Aah!

[ Screaming ]

[ Crunch ]

Carl? Carl?

Is everything all right?

Carl, do you copy?

[ Static crackles ]

[ Snoring loudly ]

And then there were these angels and they tried to k*ll me, but... I thought angels were good?

Well, in Heaven, “good's” a relative turn.

What's it like? Heaven?

Well, that depends.

But it's nice?

It can be.

That's good.

My mother's in Heaven.

Yeah, I know she is.

Kelly was...

She was a very brave woman.

She left me a message.

She said I had an angel watching over me.

[ Sighs ] Jack, I'm so sorry.

I-I should've been here for you.

No. It's okay. It's just...

I understand why she trusted you.

Why I trusted you.

You remember that?

I remember feeling...safe.

Jack, your mother, she believed that you would do amazing things.

She said that you would change the world for the better.

And now, looking at you, talking to you, I know that she was right, that we were right.

Kelly would be so proud of you.

[ Beeps ]

[ Typing ]

[ Beeping ]

Oh, wow.

I'll go tell them.

Jack. Jack!

[ Loud snoring continues ]

Dean? Dean?

Jack, I wouldn't do that!

Aah!

[ g*n cocks ]

No, no, no!

Dean, it's me. It's me.

[ Saloon door rattles ]

Ah, hey.

Who's making me coffee?

[ Clears throat ]

[ Sniffs ]

[ Slurps coffee ]

[ Groans ]

I told you.

He's an angry sleeper.

Like a bear.

Okay, so “code three” means an officer down.

Looks like the victim was --

Covered in bite marks.

Like from a zombie.

Or anything else that has teeth.

Sam: All right, change of plans.

Jack and I will hit the graveyard.

You and Cass hit up the crime scene.

Dean: Works for me.



[ Slurps ]

Ahh.



[ Engine revving ]



[ Engine turns off ]

Al right, listen, these Dodge City cops aren't likely to trust big city folks, so we're gonna have to blend.

Which is why you're making me wear this absurd hat.

It's not that bad.

Well, actually, yeah, it kind of is. Hang on.

All right. That's better.

Is it?

[ Sighs ] Yeah.

Look, just act like you're from “Tombstone,” okay?

The city?

The movie.

With Kurt Russell?

I made you watch it.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

The one with the g*ns and tuberculosis.

“I'm your Huckleberry.”

[ Police radio chatter ]

Yeah, exactly.

Well, it's good to have you back, Cass.

All right, follow my lead.

We'll fit right in.

♪ I told you 'bout living in the U.S. of A. ♪

♪ Don't you know that I'm a gangster of love? ♪

♪ I'm a space cowboy ♪

♪ Bet you weren't ready for that ♪

Howdy, pardner.

Who's in charge here?

Castiel: Much obliged.

♪ I'm sure you know where it's at ♪

♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ♪

Sheriff Phillips?

[ Record needle scratches ]

It's Sarge.

Sergeant Joe Phillips.

Sheriff's on vacation.

Well, I'm Agent Russell.

This here is my associate.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Uh, Kilmer.

My name is Val Kilmer.

Yeah, okay.

What do you want?

Well, we heard about the att*ck over the wire last night.

Wondering what you can tell us about the victim.

His name was Carl Phillips.

Deputy Carl Phillips.

He's...was my nephew.

Some psycho slit his throat and left the body out for the coyotes to chew on.

I knew that boy since he was a day old.

Well, we're deeply sorry for your loss.

[ Clears throat ]

Anyway, what the hell's the Texas Rangers even doing up here?

Well, actually, we're FB-- Rangers. That's right.

Texas Rangers.

Mm-hmm.

We've been tracking a fugitive who skipped across state lines.

He's a real mean son of a g*n.

He's been robbing graves.

Oh. We got us one of them.

Carl was the one looking in on it.

You think

there's a connection?

Could be.

Well, you boys are more than welcome to poke around, but...

I catch up with your runner first, there ain't gonna be much left of him to take back to Texas.

- You can count on it.

- Dean: Mm.

[ Messer Chups'

I don't know why ♪

[ Speaks indistinctly ] ♪ They call me zombie,

I don't know why ♪



Dude! What the hell?

Sorry. Sorry, I-I didn't mean to scare --

Um, there was no one upstairs.

[ Machine beeps ]

Yeah, it's just me.

And you are...

[ Switch clicks ]

Athena Lopez, undertaker.

And you are?

Agent Elliot.

That's Agent Paxton. FBI.

He's an FBI agent?

[ Scoffs ] Did his parents sign a permission slip?

He's a trainee.

Top of his class.

Anyway, we're here about the grave robbery.

Uh, you live on the premises, right?

All my life.

But according to the police report, you didn't see anyone that night.

I was out.

Amanda Palmer concert.

Amanda Palmer?

What about anything weird?

Cold spots?

Strange smells?

[ Clears throat ]

I just said, I wasn't here.

[ Chuckles ]

Right. We're just trying to figure out what happened.

That's all.

You and me both.

Look, if you guys wanna check out the grave, the cops have it roped off, over on the west plot.

Great. Thanks. Again, sorry.

There's something here.

[ EMF warbling ]

No, wait. There.

[ Chuckles ]

Jack, put that away.

We're in a graveyard.

There's gonna be EMF everywhere.

[ Switch clicks ]

[ Birds chirping ]

The police report said something about rats damaging the coffin.

That's one big rat.

Yeah.



All right. [ Sighs ]

Here goes nothin'.

[ Sighs, mutters ]







What's that?

I think it's...

Dean: Leftovers.

Yeah, bite marks.

Looks like a ghoul.

Oh, a ghoul is a monster that feeds on the dead.

They can take the form of whomever they've eaten.

Decapitation kills them.

Yeah, or bashing their brains in.

So like a...

zombie shape-shifter?

Pretty much, yeah.

And he could have tunnels all over that graveyard.

But if it could be anyone, how do we find it?

[ Thaddeus Rose & The Thorns'

“Hot Rod Rockin'” playing ]

♪ I'm gonna rock... ♪

[ Bottle cap clatters ]

Can I just say I'm getting real sick and tired of fighting things that look like other things?

Maybe the ghoul is this Athena.

Yeah. A-a ghoul who owns a mortuary.

That's smart, but...

No. She's got access to the bodies before they're ever in the ground.

Anything she wants, she would just take.

She doesn't have to dig 'em back up.

Right.





I think I found something.

I tracked the plates on the stolen truck from the crime scene, and I went through the city's traffic camera footage, and look.

This is it.

From yesterday, before the deputy was k*lled.

Well, then, who's drivin'?

[ Taps key ]

[ Exhales sharply ]

Holy crap.

That's Dave Mather.

Sam and Castiel: Who?

Dave Mather.

Dave! Not cool.

What? It's your own fault, bent over all sexy.

I don't like when you do that.

You do like it. Sometimes.

Cowboy. Outlaw.

One of the Dodge City g*ng.

Come here.

[ Bell tolls ]



He was one of the greatest gunfights ever.

I mean, he d*ed in , which makes this a little weird, but...

[ Laughs ]

Mysterious Dave Mather.

I'm gonna get my boots on.

One of the best gunslingers ever! Whoo!

You got a letter, and it's from that makeup school.

Thought you said you weren't gonna apply.

Changed my mind.

And it's not “that makeup school.”

It's the Ben Carruth Makeup and Special Effects Program.

It's the best.

The Carruth Program.

Got it.

“Dear Ms. Lopez, after reviewing your portfolio, we've decided to accept you into our fall semester.”

Babe, I got in.

Cool.

Don't get too excited.

No, I...

I think it's great that you got in that.

But?

But it's in Los Angeles, and we're not exactly swimming in cash here.

City living, it's expensive.

Yeah,

and they've got loans.

I could sell this place if I needed to.

Athena, don't you think we have a good thing here?

Why do you wanna go mess it up?

Whatever. I have to work.

Athena.

Two FBI agents came by today.

What for?

It was about the grave robbery, but they asked these weird questions about cold spots, strange smells.

So our ghoul ate some Old West
gunfighter and stole his face?

That's what it looks like.

Ha.

[ r*fle cocks ]

I think I've seen him before.

There was a picture at the mortuary.



He's Athena's boyfriend.



[ Engine turns off ]

All right.

So what do we tell Athena?

Well, we keep it simple, tell her the guy she's banging eats dead people, and we're here to k*ll him.

Or we could lie.

Yeah, we definitely lie.

Athena?

What the hell are you doing in my house? Again.

Look, I-I'm a...

I know who you are.

Answer the question.

Okay, my -- my associate and I, we're -- we're looking for your boyfriend.

Why? Is this about the grave robbery?

And a m*rder.

A what?

Sheriff's deputy was k*lled last night.

We just wanna talk to him.

That's all.

So...do you know where he is?

He said he had to go to the bank.

Have a good night, ma'am.

[ Bell dings ]


[ Exhales ]

Hey, Shawnte. Locking up.

Okay, sounds good.

[ Bell dings ]

Howdy, pardner.



You hit that alarm, you die.

You hand me that funny wad of cash with the dye pack in it, you die.

You. You try and play hero, big boy, you die.

You got me?

[ Bell dings ]

Dave Mather.

Robbing a bank.

That's a bold move.



You must be the Hunter.

And you must like to play cowboy.

It's my favorite suit.

You know, I like to keep a little piece of old Dave on me just to gnaw on.

[ g*n cocks ]

[ Laughs ] Let's make it two, three, four Hunters!

Whoo! [ Sniffs ]

Must be my birthday.

Look, why don't you come with us someplace else?

We can do this quick and quiet.

[ g*nshots, glass shatters ]

[ Grunts ]

Are you all right?

Yeah.

Whoo!

[ g*nshots ]

Okay, you stay here.

No, it's okay. I've got this.

No, Jack. Jack!

Stay here.

Jack! Jack!

Hey!

[ g*nshots ]



What the hell?

[ Thud, cr*ck ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Grunts ]

No.



Check the guard.

No!

No. No, no, no, no.





[ Tires screech, horn honks ]



Cass, I-I didn't mean to.

Castiel, you have to heal him.



[ High-pitched ringing ]

[ Thunder rumbling ]



I can't.

Why -- why not?

He's dead.



[ Thunder rumbling ]

Is this the first time he's hurt anyone?

No. No, but it is the first time he's hurt someone that didn't get back up.

All right, you two should get Jack back to the bunker.

What?

The cops are gonna be on their way.

We gotta get him out of town.

Okay, but what -- what about the ghoul? I can stay here.

No, I'll handle it.

Besides, you need to be with the kid in case he...you know.

[ Sighs heavily ]

Okay. All right.

[ Grunts ] Ha.

[ Inhales deeply, exhales sharply ]

Hey, baby.

Dave, what happened?

Uh, I got sh*t.

Oh, my God.

Ow! [ Laughs ]

It's not a big deal.

Hey, I robbed a bank

for you.

What are you talking about?

[ Grunts ]

[ Bag thuds ]

I-I...

I changed my mind.

You can go to that school, and I'm gonna come with you.

Okay? But we gotta leave now.

So big city, here we come.

Are you insane?

No, look,

I can pawn jewelry for stuff like concert tickets.

But if we're skipping down, digging up a few bodies just ain't gonna cut it.

You're the grave robber?

But that would mean...

- That cop that got k*lled?

- That -- that pissant Deputy Carl, he was tailing me.

I had no choice.

I had to do it. I had to do it.

You k*lled someone.

Who had it coming. But it doesn't matter now anyways.

Baby...

[ Breathing heavily ]

We need to leave. Now. Okay?

Don't touch me.

Hey!

I'm the one that's giving you everything that you ever wanted.

So how 'bout you stop being a bitch, okay?

Athena...

[ Gasps ]

...you're with me, and I will always take care of you and I will always protect you.

But we need to get the hell out of Dodge now.

Just get away from me.

Baby. Baby!

[ Gasps ]

[ Vehicle approaching ]

Damn.

[ Engine turns off ]

[ Owl hooting ]

Y'all looking for someone?

'Cause I am.

Bank in town just got robbed.

Turned into a real O.K. Corral type of deal.

Big old sh**t.

I heard about that.

Mm-hmm. Shawnte, the clerk, recognized the perp's voice.

She said he sounded just like the fella that's been dating Athena.

That so?

And we got prints back from the m*rder.

They matched prints from the bank.

That boy's been busy.

I already checked his place.

It's cleaned out, but I figure he ain't goin' nowhere without his best girl.

So that's why I'm here.

Why are you here?

Same thing.

Trying to get the bad guy.

Where's your badge?

I don't need one.

This is family business.

Well, I should tell you I'm not taking him alive.

Neither am I.

All right, then.

Uh, aim for the head.



[ Rustling ]

What the hell?

Come on.



[ Rustling ]

All right, you wait here.

I'm-a flush him out.

[ Owl hoots ]

[ Rumbling ]

Aah!

Sarge?



Aw, hell.

[ Grunting ]

Mnh-mnh!

No, I don't wanna -- Okay.

[ Groans, grunts ]

[ Thud ]

[ Grunting ]

Ugh.

[ Grunting ]

[ Shotgun thuds]

[ Grunts ]

[ Grunts ] Uhh!

Perfect.

[ Sputters ]

Yeah. Sure.

Come to Dodge City.

We'll have some laughs.

Ugh. [ Grunts ]

[ Thunderclap ]

[ Rain falling ]

Jack, you, uh... you okay?

Jack, I've k*lled people who didn't deserve it...

...my friends --

I've k*lled people I loved.

I wish I could tell you that it -- that it gets easier, that with time, it hurts less, but that would be a lie because it -- it never gets easier.

And those moments, they never stop hurting.

But that doesn't mean that you should stop fighting.

Doesn't mean that just because you made a mistake -- and that's what this is, Jack.

It's a mistake.

That doesn't mean that you can't --

can't be better, do better.

I believe that.

I have to believe that.

And we still believe in you, Jack. We, uh ---

Stop. Just...

Please stop.

[ Insects chirping ]

[ Loud metallic clank, creaking ]

Aah!

[ Thud ]

[ Panting ]

[ Muffled crying ]

[ Whispers ] Hey. Hey.

Hey. [ Grunts ]

You okay?

[ Crying ] No.

What the hell is going on?

Okay, well, your boyfriend, uh, is not exactly human.

What?

[ Groaning ]

Hey. Hey, Sarge.

Hey, hey. Hey, you okay?

Still kickin'.

[ Groans ]

Okay.

Just barely.

That sumbitch dragged me down here, tossed me around like I was a damn rag doll.

You got any idea where he is?

A little bit.

[ g*n cocks ]

Hands up.



Oh, I think you heard me.

Raise 'em!

High!

Attaboy.

Dave? Don't.

It's okay.

I'm doing this for us, baby.

There is no “us.”

Ooh. Ouch.

Breakups can be a bitch.

Shut up.

Or what?

Or I'm gonna put a b*llet right between your eyes.

I mean, what'd you think was gonna happen here?

You come down with no g*n.

[ Laughs ]

Like it matters anyway.

You ain't fast enough.

No, but he is.

[ g*nsh*t ]

[ Gasps ]

[ Thud ]

[ Exhales sharply ]



Happy trails, cowboy.



[ Birds squawking ]

[ Sighs ]

So, you mind telling me exactly what went on back there?

Sure.

Guy named Dave k*lled your deputy.

He tried to k*ll you, and you sh*t him dead.

And I was never here.

Fair enough.

And the, uh, security guard at the bank, Dave k*lled him, too.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Hey.

Dean: Hey.

How'd it go?

Usual.

k*lled the bad guy, saved the girl.

[ Object thuds ]

What about the, uh...

Took care of it.

Good.

Good?

How is that good?

I k*lled someone.

What was his name? The guard?

Did he have a family?

Jack, don't do this to yourself.

No, did he?

Yes, he did.



Jack, look, this life, what we do, it's...

it's not easy.

And we've all done things we regret.

Just don't.



You're afraid of me.

Jack, no.

No, maybe you're right.



Maybe I'm just another monster.



No, you're not.

I thought you were.

I did.

But...

Like Sam said, we've all done bad.

We all have blood on our hands.

So if you're a monster, we're all monsters.

No, you don't...

Every time I try and do something good, people get hurt.

I thought I was getting better.

I'm not...

I don't know what I am, but I know I can't make the world a better place, not like this.

I can't even do one good thing.

And I know that if I stay, I'm gonna hurt you.

All of you.

And...I can't.

You're all I have.

Jack, listen...

I have to go.

No, Jack.

I'm sorry.

[ All shout, grunt ]

I'm so sorry.

[ Whoosh ]

Jack.



Hey.

[ Grunts ]

[ Breathing heavily ]

Jack!



He's gone.
