[FADE IN: GREEN RIVER COUNTY DETENTION CENTER. The inmates, decked out in orange jumpsuits, are outside on the blacktop. Some are playing basketball, while others are lifting weights or playing cards. Inside the building, some construction workers are chatting.]
WORKER 1: Well, this makes a lot of sense. First, they close down the cell block, and now they open it back up again? Here's your tax dollars at work, huh?
WORKER 2: [chuckling] Yeah.
[They meet up with a third worker, who is drilling through the cement.]
WORKER 1: You got that ready?
[The third worker nods. They use a crowbar and a ton of muscle to re-open the cell block that had been shut down. They use their flashlights to scan the wall. The cell is small, dirty, and extremely creepy.]
WORKER 1: Yikes. I would've hated to have gotten thrown in here.
[Suddenly, a chilly white mist seeps through the open door. The workers look frightened.]
WORKER 1: Hey, you feel that, man?
WORKER 2: Yeah.
[Outside in the corridor, a strong wind begins blowing papers everywhere.]
WORKER 1: Whoa. What was that?
[Later that night, an inmate in Cell Block B, RANDALL, is reading a book. The lights suddenly begin to flicker in his cell. He looks through the bars and sees the hallway clock has stopped. Suddenly, a ghostly figure moves past his cell, and he jumps back. He notices a security camera mounted right outside his cell.]
RANDALL: [to the camera] Hey! Hey, guard! Hey!
[In the security office, the guard looks up from his work to see RANDALL talking to the camera. He turns up the audio on the feed.]
RANDALL: Come on, man! Hey! Guard!
GUARD: [into his walkie-talkie] Going down to B Block. Randall again.
[Back in Cell Block B, RANDALL is still yelling.]
RANDALL: Hey! Guard, hey!
INMATE 1: [OS] Shut up, old man!
INMATE 2: [OS] Come on, Randall! Trying to sleep!
RANDALL: You're telling me you didn't see that? What are you, blind? [The guard suddenly shows up, hitting RANDALL'S cell with his nightstick.]
GUARD: Randall, cool it.
RANDALL: Cool it, my ass, man. There's somebody out there.
GUARD: Randall, turn out your light and go to sleep. I'm not gonna say it again.
[Reluctantly, RANDALL heads to his bed and turns out the light.]
GUARD: [into his walkie-talkie] Lights out, B Block.
[The corridor goes dark. The guard, now alone, begins walking down the corridor while the prisoners settle in for the night. He stops, feeling a presence behind him, but nothing is there. He resumes walking, and inadvertently steps inside a cell. The chilly mist appears again, prompting the guard to stop again. Suddenly, the door to the cell closes on its own, crushing the guard's arm between the bars. He begins screaming in pain, and when he turns, he sees something walking towards him. He continues to scream and protest while he is killed. RANDALL watches from his cell, petrified.]
TITLE CARD
[FADE IN: ARKANSAS MUSEUM OF ANTHROPOLOGY. THREE MONTHS LATER. NIGHT. SAM and DEAN make their way into the museum after hours.]
DEAN: [reading a map] This way.
SAM: I hate this plan, Dean.
DEAN: Yeah, I got that the first ten times I heard it.
[Flashlights in hand, they make their way to another room, unknowingly passing the motion censors while they walk. Inside the room, they open the glass display cases and begin taking out artifacts. Suddenly, they hear a noise from the other side of the building. Nodding to each other, they take that as their cue to go back into the hallway. Cops are blocking all of the exits.]
POLICE OFFICER: Freeze! Don't move! I said freeze! Put your hands behind your head! Down on your knees! Now!
[The boys kneel on the floor while they are handcuffed.]
[CUT TO: POLICE STATION. SAM gets his mugshot photo taken first, looking extremely upset. DEAN is up next.]
DEAN: I call this one the Blue Steel. [He cops a Zoolander face.]
PHOTOGRAPHER: Yeah, that's great. To the right. [DEAN turns to the right for another picture.] Okay, back to the line-up.
DEAN: Wait, who looks better? Me or Nick Nolte?
PHOTOGRAPHER: Shut up.
[CUT TO: INTERROGATION ROOM. DEAN is sitting at a table when SPECIAL AGENT VICTOR HENRICKSEN enters, accompanied by SPECIAL AGENT CARL REIDY.]
DEAN: Oh, it's about time. I'll have a cheeseburger. Extra onions.
HENRICKSEN: You think you're funny.
DEAN: I think I'm adorable.
HENRICKSEN: It is a pleasure to finally meet you in person, Dean. I'm Special Agent Victor Henricksen. This is my partner, Special Agent Reidy.
DEAN: Henricksen? Not the Milwaukee Agent Henricksen.
HENRICKSEN: Live and in person. [He takes out a photo from a file, showing DEAN on the Milwaukee news, back during the bank robbery.] Nice shot. You can hang that up in your cell at Supermax.
DEAN: All right, maybe we can just forget the cheeseburgers, huh?
HENRICKSEN: Oh, yeah. Keep that game face on. Try and cover up how cornered you are. [to Reidy] Read him the charges.
REIDY: We've got mail fraud, credit card fraud, grave desecration.
HENRICKSEN: Skip to the good ones.
REIDY: Armed robbery, kidnapping, and...oh, three counts of first-degree murder.
HENRICKSEN: And after Milwaukee, your brother is now a suspect in a murder case himself. I'd say for you two, "screwed to hell" is a major understatement.
DEAN: Well, where there's life, there's hope, huh?
HENRICKSEN: See, that's what I kept thinking as I was searching for your asses all over hell and gone. Your dad taught you well. The way you guys cover your tracks, and after Milwaukee, the way you guys vanished -- near went nuts trying to find you. [gesturing to Reidy] Ask him.
REIDY: He near went nuts.
HENRICKSEN: And after all of that, you get tripped up on a motion detector. Pretty rookie move. Gotta say, I was...surprised.
[The door opens, and an attractive woman, MARA DANIELS, enters.]
MARA: Dean Winchester?
DEAN: [checking her out] In the flesh.
HENRICKSEN: And you are?
MARA: Mara Daniels, Public Defender's Office. I've been assigned you and your brother's case. [She shakes DEAN'S hand.]
DEAN: Huh.
MARA: Are you Henricksen?
HENRICKSEN: Yeah. And we're not quite done here.
MARA: Uh, yeah. You are. And if you don't mind, I would like to meet with my clients. Privately.
[A few minutes later, SAM is sitting with DEAN and MARA in the interrogation room.]
MARA: Unfortunately, your arraignment on the breaking-and-entering charge won't be until Tuesday.
DEAN: And they'll keep us in the county jail?
MARA: That's right.
SAM: Green River County Detention Center?
MARA: Yes. And considering the charges you're facing, no judge in his right mind is going to grant you bail.
DEAN: Yeah, we figured that.
MARA: Extradition papers have already been filed from five separate states, Missouri and Wisconsin being the biggest concern -- the bank robbery and the murder raps.
SAM: How long can we stall extradition?
MARA: A week. Maybe less. [DEAN and SAM exchange a look, clearly seeing no way to get around this.]
[CUT TO: GREEN RIVER COUNTY DETENTION CENTER. SAM and DEAN, along with the rest of the new inmates, climb off a small bus, handcuffed. As they pass the blacktop, the current prisoners stand next to the fence and taunt them.]
DEAN: Don't worry, Sam. I promise I won't trade you for smokes.
[Inside the building, the boys, dressed in their orange jumpsuits, are getting led to their jail cells. DEAN enters with his cellmate, a very large, intimidating man.]
DEAN: I call top bunk.
[The man scoffs and puts his belongings on the top bunk bed. Directly across the corridor, SAM enters his cell. His cellmate is a larger, equally as intimidating man.]
[Later, the inmates are in line to get frisked by security.]
DEAN: My roommate doesn't say much. How's yours?
SAM: He just keeps staring at me in a way that makes me really uneasy.
DEAN: Sounds like you're making new friends.
SAM: Dean, this is without a doubt, the dumbest, craziest thing we have ever done. And that's in a long, storied career of dumb and crazy.
DEAN: Calm down. It's all part of the plan.
SAM: [scoffs] So, Henricksen showing up was part of the plan?
DEAN: Yeah, the guy moves a little faster than I thought. Look, all we've gotta do is find this ghost, put the sucker down, then grab ourselves a couple of teardrop tattoos.
SAM: That's not funny. Dean, what about this escape plan?
DEAN: It's one hundred percent a sure thing. I wouldn't have gone in if it wasn't. I mean, come on, man. This place has all the signs of a haunting. The innocent people are dead, four so far.
SAM: Yeah, innocent.
DEAN: You from Texas all of a sudden? Just ‘cause these people are in jail doesn't mean they deserve to die. And if we don't stop this thing, people are gonna continue to die. We do the job wherever it takes us.
SAM: Look, Dean, just be straight with me, all right? You're doing this for Deacon?
DEAN: Damn right.
SAM: But you barely even know the guy.
DEAN: We know he was in the Corps with Dad. We know he saved Dad's life. We know we owe him.
SAM: Yeah, all right. But don't you think he's asking a little much?
DEAN: Doesn't matter. We may not be saints, but we're loyal and we pay our debts. Now, that means something to me and it ought to, to you. Look, I'm not thrilled about this either, man. But Deacon asked us to hunt this thing down, and that's exactly what we're gonna do.
[CUT TO: PRISON CAFETERIA. SAM is picking at his rubbery-looking food while DEAN wolfs his down.]
DEAN: You know, this chicken isn't half bad.
SAM: Great. Finish mine. All right, so let's go back over this, Dean. Spirit suspect number one is Mark Moody, right?
DEAN: Yeah, psycho killer extraordinaire -- Satanism, ritual murder, died in jail.
SAM: You sure it's him?
DEAN: Pretty sure.
SAM: Dean, considering our circumstances, I'm gonna need a little bit better than "pretty sure".
DEAN: Really pretty sure. Moody died of a heart attack, which is exactly what all the victims in here are dying of. He died in the old cell block, which they closed right after he croaked about thirty years ago. They just opened that back up. That's when the killings started.
SAM: So, you think his spirit was released somehow?
DEAN: Mm-hmm.
SAM: But what if he was already cremated?
DEAN: I'm guessing there's something in the old block that belongs to him that's keeping him around. Whatever it is, we've gotta find it and you know the rest. [pushing his food away] I'm done.
[He gets up to leave and SAM follows. On the way out, SAM bumps into another inmate, LUCAS.]
SAM: Sorry, I-
LUCAS: Watch where you're going.
SAM: Sure, I just-
DEAN: He said he was sorry.
SAM: Dean.
LUCAS: You talkin' to me? [No response] Are you talkin' to me?
DEAN: Oh, great, another guy whose seen Taxi Driver one too many times. Yeah, I'm talkin' to you. Trust me. Let it go. [LUCAS turns away from him.]
SAM: Dean, come on.
DEAN: See, that's how you've gotta talk to these guys. [winks] Instant respect.
[SAM notices LUCAS talking to another very large inmate, ironically named TINY. Both he and LUCAS begin to approach DEAN.]
SAM: You were saying? [DEAN turns to see LUCAS coming at him.]
DEAN: Oh, great. [He dodges LUCAS' punch and gets him in a headlock.] We can end this right now, no harm, no foul.
[Instead, LUCAS fights back. The two of them continue fighting around the cafeteria until LUCAS lands on the ground and security approaches. One of the guards, DEACON, approaches.]
DEACON: On your feet, Lucas.
LUCAS: Yes, sir, Boss. [DEACON approaches DEAN, shoving his nightstick under DEAN'S chin.]
DEACON: What's your name?
DEAN: Winchester.
DEACON: Well, Winchester, not a good start. [to the other guard] Solitary. You, too, Lucas. [Both of the men are led out by security.]
DEAN: [to Sam] We having fun yet, huh?
[CUT TO: SOLITARY CONFINEMENT. DEAN is sitting in his own cell, directly across the corridor from LUCAS' cell.]
DEAN: I wish I had a baseball.
LUCAS: What? What'd you say?
DEAN: I said I wish I had a baseball. You know, like Steve McQueen.
LUCAS: Yeah? Well, I wish I had a bat. So I could bash your frickin' head in!
DEAN: Okay. So much for the bonding-in-solitary moment. [The lights in the cell suddenly begin to flicker. A light mist begins to appear.] Oh, crap.
[DEAN looks out of the small window in his cell into the corridor. He notices the clock on the wall stops working.]
DEAN: Lucas. Listen to me. Stay very still.
[LUCAS looks out of the window in his own compartment and suddenly sees the spirit appear. He jumps back in fright, but the spirit makes its way into his cell. Only its face is visible to the audience. The spirit squints its beady eyes, focusing on LUCAS. Suddenly, bloody slashes begin to appear on LUCAS' face, getting deeper as the spirit continues to concentrate. DEAN listens from his cell as LUCAS continues to scream.]
[CUT TO: POLICE STATION. HENRICKSEN is at his desk when MARA knocks on the door.]
MARA: Henricksen.
HENRICKSEN: Hey, Daniels.
MARA: Can I have a word?
HENRICKSEN: Have a seat. What's on your mind?
MARA: [sitting down] I've been going through the Winchester charges. And I've gotta say, there are some weird inconsistencies.
HENRICKSEN: Welcome to my world.
MARA: I talked to a cop in Baltimore who swears up and down these boys saved her life and helped her catch a killer. And there's a witness to your bank robbery in Milwaukee. She swears Sam and Dean saved her life.
HENRICKSEN: Saved her from what?
MARA: She was a little unclear on that.
HENRICKSEN: That's because she's nuts. Look, I was in Milwaukee. I spoke to her, I spoke to all the witnesses.
MARA: And?
HENRICKSEN: And all I know is, wherever these guys go, people die. It's that simple.
MARA: I don't know that it is. They just don't seem cut-and-dry guilty to me. I think there's more to this.
HENRICKSEN: Like what?
MARA: I don't know. Can't put my finger on it. It's just...strange.
HENRICKSEN: Strange. Yeah, okay. Grown-ups are trying to get some work done here, so if you don't mind. [He glares at her until she leaves.]
[CUT TO: COUNTY JAIL BATHROOMS. SAM and RANDALL are mopping the floors.]
SAM: How you doing?
RANDALL: I'm 54 years old, mopping the floor of a crapper with bars on the windows. How do you think I'm doing?
SAM: All right. Bad icebreaker. I'm Sam.
RANDALL: Randall.
SAM: Nice to meet...Randall? Hey, weren't you there the night that guard died?
RANDALL: Yeah.
SAM: Well, what happened?
RANDALL: They say the stress of the job got him.
SAM: Yeah? What do you say? [RANDALL fixes him with a weird look.]
RANDALL: Why are you inside, kid?
SAM: Because I've got an idiot for a brother.
RANDALL: That'll do it.
SAM: Yeah.
RANDALL: Aw, this place ain't so bad. Compared to the old cell block, this is damn Hilton.
SAM: You spent time in the old block?
RANDALL: Oh, yeah, I was a regular customer.
SAM: Didn't they have Mark Moody over there for a while?
RANDALL: He was there. You know, I was there, too, the night that lunatic bought it.
SAM: Yeah? Heart attack, right?
RANDALL: Sure, his heart stopped right after the guard stopped using his head for batting practice. Next morning, I was in his cell, mopping up the blood. What a mess.
SAM: Wait, so he was beaten and nobody reported it?
RANDALL: Hey, you kept your mouth shut unless you wanted to die from the same heart attack, you know?
SAM: Randall...exactly how much blood was there?
[CUT TO: BLACKTOP. DEAN is playing cards with another inmate.]
DEAN: Call.
INMATE: [showing his cards] Three aces. [DEAN looks defeated. The inmate smirks and takes cigarettes from the pile next to DEAN.]
DEAN: That's a bad beat. That is a bad beat. But, see, I'm full. [showing his cards] Threes over aces. [He laughs as the inmate pounds the table.] Hey, I'm sorry. It's a cruel game, my friend. Sorry, guys.
[SAM sits down when the inmate leaves and notices the cigarettes.]
DEAN: It's like picking low-hanging fruit.
SAM: You don't even smoke.
DEAN: Are you kidding me? This is the currency of the realm.
SAM: Look, I got a good lead on Moody.
DEAN: Yeah. Me, too. His spirit paid a little visit last night.
SAM: What?
DEAN: Clock stopped, flickering lights, cold spot. I mean, he did everything but yell, "Boo!"
SAM: Well, what happened?
DEAN: He walked right by me. Lucas wasn't so lucky. I mean, the way he was screaming -- guy was a jerk, but he didn't deserve to go like that. What'd you find out on Moody?
SAM: Yeah, so, I think I know where we might find his remains: blood in his old cell.
DEAN: Blood? I thought it was a heart attack.
SAM: It was, after the guards worked him over. I mean, apparently, there was so much blood in there, they had trouble mopping it up.
DEAN: How're we gonna get in?
SAM: I've got a plan.
DEAN: That's the Sammy I know. Come on, man, you're like Clint Eastwood from Escape from Alcatraz.
SAM: The problem is, even if we do find something, how are we gonna burn it? We don't have any accelerant.
DEAN: It's a good thing I'm like James Garner from The Great Escape. [He stands, holding the cigarettes.] Hey, fellas! Who's ready to deal?
[CUT TO: PRISON CAFETERIA. SAM and DEAN are in line to get their food.]
DEAN: Are you sure about this?
SAM: Pretty sure.
DEAN: Yeah, well, considering our circumstances, I'd like a little better than "pretty sure".
SAM: Okay, really pretty sure. [He gets his food and sits.]
DEAN: [to the lunchlady] I'd like mine al dente. [She piles a gross-looking serving of spaghetti onto his tray.] Perfect.
[DEAN takes his food and sits down across from TINY, who despite his name, is very large.]
DEAN: Save room for dessert, Tiny. Hey, I wanted to ask you, ‘cause I couldn't help but notice that you are two tons of fun: just curious, is that a thyroid problem, or is that some deep-seated self-esteem issue? ‘Cause, you know, they're just donuts. They're not love.
[TINY, glaring, wastes no time in punching DEAN. DEAN fights back, and when a security guard gets in the middle, TINY beats him up, too. The other security guards, including DEACON, rush over to the fight. SAM takes the opportunity to go back into the kitchen and snag a salt shaker. In the cafeteria, the guards finally drag TINY off of DEAN, who is pretty bruised.]
DEACON: We'd waited any longer, you'd be dead.
DEAN: Well, you waited long enough. [DEACON knocks the wind out of DEAN with his nightstick.]
DEACON: Do yourself a favor: don't talk. [to another guard] Take them both up to the infirmary.
[Meanwhile, SAM has made his way to one of the dark corridors. He opens the old cell where Moody was murdered. Turning down the blankets on the bed, he notices deep bloodstains. He pours salt from the shaker onto the blankets and lights them with a match.]
[CUT TO: PRISON INFIRMARY. DEAN is in one cubicle while TINY is in the one next to him.]
DEAN: Hey, Tiny?
TINY: Yeah?
DEAN: Hey, sorry about the things I was saying earlier. I can't really tell you why, but I had to get you angry. So, uh...anyway, sorry.
TINY: It's okay. Truth is, I have low self-esteem issues. My old man treated me and my brother like crap. Right up to the day he died.
DEAN: How'd he die?
TINY: My brother shot him.
DEAN: [stunned] Okay. [Suddenly, he sees the spirit standing in the far corner of the infirmary.] Oh, crap.
TINY: What is it?
[The spirit, who turns out to be a woman, is dressed in a tattered white dress. Her long hair is disheveled, and her pale skin is bruised. She makes her way towards DEAN'S cubicle. He grabs a salt shaker from his lunch tray.]
TINY: What's going on? [The spirit launches DEAN into the wall.] What is it?
[The spirit approaches DEAN and puts her hand on his chest. He begins screaming in pain, but manages to open the salt shaker and throw salt on her. She disappears from his cell, but he soon hears TINY screaming from his own cubicle.]
DEAN: Tiny?! Tiny! Guard!
[CUT TO: BLACKTOP. SAM and DEAN are walking outside.]
SAM: Wait, so you're telling me it wasn't Moody?
DEAN: Unless he liked going around dressed like a nurse. Poor Tiny, man. Poor, giant Tiny.
SAM: Wait, so this is the ghost of some nurse who worked here or something?
DEAN: I don't know, man, I guess.
SAM: You know what, Dean? At this point, "I don't know, I guess" isn't really working for me. See, I thought we were done. I called Deacon. It's happening. We're getting out tonight.
DEAN: I guess we better do some quick research, then.
SAM: How? I mean, maybe you haven't noticed: we're in jail.
[A few minutes later, the boys are talking to RANDALL.]
RANDALL: So, you wanna know about some nurse? [SAM nods.] Why do you wanna know?
DEAN: Well, we've got our reasons, but we'll make it worth your while. [He holds out a pack of cigarettes, which RANDALL grabs.] So, this nurse -- she would've had white hair, one screwed-up eye. Is that ringing a bell?
RANDALL: Yeah. Yeah, I remember her.
DEAN: You remember her name?
RANDALL: [mischievous] No, that's still kind of fuzzy. [SAM smirks.]
SAM: Give it to him.
DEAN: I earned these.
SAM: Dean. [DEAN reluctantly hands RANDALL another pack of cigarettes.]
RANDALL: Glockner. Nurse Glockner. Nasty old bitch worked here in the seventies.
SAM: You knew her?
RANDALL: I met her once. I had to get a tetanus shot. She damn near jabbed the needle through the other side of my arm. At least I got out of there alive.
SAM: What do you mean?
RANDALL: There were these stories, I don't know if they were true. Cons love to talk, but we're all liars.
DEAN: What kind of stories?
RANDALL: Well, guys would go up to the infirmary with a cold. Next thing you know, they're in a body bag. A whole rash of heart attacks, young guys, old guys.
SAM: Heart attacks?
RANDALL: Yeah, the story was Glockner had it out for cons, and she did this Charles Bronson thing with a hypodermic. Anyway, that was the rumor. Nobody ever proved anything.
DEAN: Whatever happened to Glockner?
RANDALL: I don't know. I finished my bit and left. Next time I landed back in here, she was gone.
[CUT TO: PRISON CAFETERIA. SAM and DEAN are seated at a table.]
SAM: Okay, so let's say those stories on Glockner were true.
DEAN: It's a thought. You know, in life, she's a vigilante. In death, the same thing.
SAM: Right. But then, how is she tied in with the old cell block? And if she's going after cons, why kill that one guard?
DEAN: Well, I did hear in the yard that that guard wasn't exactly squeaky-clean, so maybe she's going after anybody that breaks the law. Like me.
SAM: You heard in the yard?
DEAN: Yeah.
SAM: Dean, does it bother you at all how easily you seem to fit in here?
DEAN: No, not really.
SAM: All right, well, listen. Either way, we need more info on Glockner: if she's buried, if so, where? And we've got five hours to get it. [DEAN glares.] No, don't give me that look. Don't give me that "we've gotta see this thing through" look. We are leaving tonight, no matter what.
DEAN: I just don't wanna let Deacon down, that's all. I mean, we do owe him.
SAM: Yeah, but we don't owe him our lives, Dean. [DEAN stands.] Where are you going?
DEAN: I'm gonna go talk with our lawyer.
[In a private cell, DEAN is talking on the phone with MARA through plate glass.]
MARA: You want me to what?
DEAN: Her name was Glockner. She worked here as a nurse in the seventies. Now, I need you to find out everything you can about her, but most importantly, how she died and where she's buried.
MARA: Are you nuts? Do you have any idea the kind of trouble you're in here?
DEAN: I have a vague notion.
MARA: Good. So, let's forget about some random nurse and talk about your case.
DEAN: Mara -- it's Mara, right?
MARA: Yeah.
DEAN: I get that you're trying to help me, okay? I do. But believe me when I say that this is the best way that you can help.
MARA: Really, how? Explain that to me.
DEAN: I wish I could, but I can't. I'm just gonna have to ask you to trust me on this.
MARA: Why should I? Henricksen says you're a monster.
DEAN: I'm a monster? [chuckles] Well, he's wrong, okay? I'm not what they say I am.
MARA: Everybody says that.
DEAN: Yeah. Look, if you're as smart a PD as I think you are, then you can tell with just one look whether or not your clients are guilty, okay? Just like that. So, I want you to look at me -- really look - and you tell me: am I guilty? We're not the bad guys.
[CUT TO: BLACKTOP. SAM spots DEAN and walks over to him.]
SAM: She go for it?
DEAN: No, not so much. But maybe she'll still come around.
SAM: Well, we can't wait around to find out.
DEAN: We could give it another day.
SAM: No, no, no. We're leaving tonight, and that's it.
DEAN: So, we're not gonna finish the job? We're just gonna let these people die?
SAM: Don't give me that, all right? This was your stupid plan, and I went along with it, but we're sticking to the plan, Dean.
DEAN: Okay. You leave, I'm gonna stay. [He starts to leave.]
SAM: Hey, don't turn away from me, Dean!
DEAN: Screw you!
SAM: What? Screw you!
[The boys begin fighting before security pulls them apart. DEACON grabs DEAN.]
DEACON: All right, hard case. I see the usual methods ain't gonna work with you. [to Sam] You, too, sweetheart.
[DEACON and another security guard take the boys out of the yard and up to a large room in the prison.]
DEACON: [to the guard] Take off. I wanna handle this alone.
[The guard leaves. DEACON approaches the boys, looking seriously pissed off. Then, his face breaks into a smile, patting DEAN on the shoulder.]
DEAN: Deacon, you are beating the holy hell out of me, man.
DEACON: Sorry, Dean. I thought I was going easy on you. [He takes off the boys' handcuffs.] Just trying to make it look real.
DEAN: Yeah, well, mission accomplished.
DEACON: So, is it over?
SAM: No. Turns out it wasn't Moody.
DEACON: What?
SAM: Yeah.
DEACON: Then who?
SAM: We think it's some nurse who used to work here, but we're still shy on all the intel we need.
DEAN: Which is why we should stick around until we find it.
DEACON: [taking out an envelope] Oh, hey, guys-
SAM: You wanna have this fight for real, Dean? We've gotta go. We've gotta go now.
DEAN: I'm just saying-
DEACON: Guys-
SAM: We're leaving, Dean. Otherwise, we'll be leaving in shackles for Milwaukee with Henricksen as company.
DEAN: Oh, come on.
DEACON: Guys!
SAM and DEAN: What?
DEACON: Your lawyer left this for you. [DEAN takes the envelope and opens it.]
DEAN: [chuckling] Would you look at that? Man, I am friggin' velvety smooth.
SAM: You wanna maybe open it up? After, you know, you're done patting yourself on the back?
DEAN: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [reading the paper] Wow.
SAM: What? You wanna share with the class, Dean?
DEAN: Glockner died in the old cell block right after Moody bit it. Seems they had a little inmate uprising, she got caught in the middle. They dragged her to a solitary cell and gave her "severe cerebral edema".
SAM: Someone bashed her head in.
DEAN: Yeah.
SAM: Does it say where she's buried?
DEAN: Yep.
DEACON: All right, then. Let's get you the hell out of here.
DEAN: Don't worry, Deacon. We'll get rid of this thing.
DEACON: Good, ‘cause I want it out of my prison. [The boys nod.] Boys...I can't thank you enough for this. I know I was asking a lot, but you still came through. Your daddy raised you right.
SAM: Well, we owed you.
DEACON: [hugging both of them] Hope to see you again. Just not in here, okay?
SAM: Yeah, we'll do our best.
[The boys go to leave through an escape that DEACON has opened for them. DEAN turns back around.]
DEAN: Oh. Where do you want it?
DEACON: What?
[DEAN smirks. DEACON gets the hint and points to a spot on his jaw.]
DEACON: Make it look real, son. [DEAN chuckles and gives DEACON a good punch.]
[Outside, the boys use the escape route and finally make their way out of the prison. They reach the Impala.]
DEAN: [to the car] Oh, man, are you a sight for sore eyes. [to Sam] You know, I almost wish I could see Henricksen's face.
SAM: Really? ‘Cause I'd be happy if I never saw him again. I mean, we're not really out of the woods yet, Dean, you know?
DEAN: Yeah. [They suddenly hear the alarm sounding from inside the prison.] Good point.
[CUT TO: INTERROGATION ROOM. DEACON is being questioned by HENRICKSEN and REIDY.]
DEACON: I told you, one of them came up behind me.
HENRICKSEN: You let them get the drop on you?
DEACON: Yeah. I screwed up, all right? What do you want me to say?
HENRICKSEN: I wanna know where they're headed.
DEACON: How the hell would I know?
HENRICKSEN: Let's start over again.
DEACON: For God's sake-
HENRICKSEN: Again! I wanna know everything they did today, from the minute they woke up.
DEACON: [through clenched teeth] Got up. Breakfast. Visiting hours. Rec time.
HENRICKSEN: Any visitors?
DEACON: Just the lawyer.
[CUT TO: POLICE STATION. MARA is being questioned by the agents at her desk.]
HENRICKSEN: It's an easy question. What did you and Dean talk about?
MARA: I have already told you: it was a private conversation between me and my client.
HENRICKSEN: Right. And just three hours later, he just happened to bust out. Now, tell me what he said.
[CUT TO: CEMETERY. The boys, who are now back in regular street clothes, get out of the car and head to Glockner's grave.]
SAM: We've gotta move it. If Henricksen gets to the lawyer...
DEAN: I thought she couldn't say anything. You know, that whole lawyer-client privilege thing.
SAM: The privilege doesn't apply, Dean.
DEAN: So, she'll talk?
SAM: She has to.
DEAN: Oh, that's friggin' super.
[CUT TO: POLICE STATION.]
HENRICKSEN: Let me make this simple: you don't come clean, I will put you on the hook for aiding and abetting.
MARA: Oh, that is ridiculous.
HENRICKSEN: You don't think that I can? You think this is some kind of game, lady? I am the last person on planet Earth you wanna screw with! Now, tell me what he said.
MARA: [after a long pause] He wanted me to do some research. On a prison nurse that died in 1976.
HENRICKSEN: What? Why?
MARA: I don't know.
HENRICKSEN: What else?
MARA: They wanted to know where she was buried.
HENRICKSEN: Did you find out where?
MARA: Yeah.
HENRICKSEN:Did you tell them?
MARA: [ashamed] Yeah.
HENRICKSEN: Tell me.
[CUT TO: MOUNTAINSIDE CEMETERY. Several cop cars are heading towards the area.]
[Meanwhile, SAM and DEAN are continuing to dig while the cops storm into the cemetery. SAM suddenly hits solid wood.]
SAM: Got her.
[CUT TO: PRISON BATHROOM. DEACON is splashing cold water on his face. The clock suddenly stops, and the bathroom becomes very cold. When DEACON turns, he comes face-to-face with NURSE GLOCKNER. She jerks her head, and he is knocked to the floor.]
[At the same time, SAM and DEAN are rushing to pour salt on GLOCKNER'S corpse. The cops are getting further into the cemetery.]
[In the bathroom, GLOCKNER kneels next to DEACON and presses her hand to his chest.]
GLOCKNER: You let those two go!
[At the cemetery, the boys light up the bones, watching them go up in flames.]
[In the bathroom, just as DEACON is about to be killed, GLOCKNER steps away from him. She screams as she bursts into flames and vanishes.]
[CUT TO: MOUNTAINSIDE CEMETERY. The cops continue searching until they reach a clearing. They find that the Winchesters are nowhere to be seen.]
HENRICKSEN: You sure this is the right damn cemetery?
REIDY: She said Mountainside. Mountainside Cemetery.
[DEAN and SAM, meanwhile, finish the job. It turns out they were at a different location, GREEN VALLEY CEMETERY, the entire time.]
[CUT TO: POLICE STATION. MARA leaves the building and heads to her car. As she gets inside, she smiles to herself, knowing that she gave HENRICKSEN the wrong information.]
[CUT TO: GREEN VALLEY CEMETERY. The boys reach the Impala.]
SAM: I thought we were screwed before.
DEAN: Yeah, yeah, I know. But we've gotta go deep this time.
SAM: Deep, Dean? We should go to Yemen.
DEAN: Whoa, I'm not sure I'm ready to go that deep. [The boys get into the car and drive away.]
