( AS TIME GOES BY )

NORMAL, ILLINOIS
1958

HOUSE
[ ☾]

It's raining outside. A toy plane hangs in a window and other toys, including a gun, a yo-yo and another plane, line the dresser. A Boy is asleep in bed. The camera pans out and we see that a Man wearing a hat and coat stands watching him.

The Man sits down on the bed and pulls the covers up around the Boy, who wakes. "Hey, sport. Sorry about that." He says.

"Where are you going?" The Boy asks.

"Work. I just wanted to check on you before I left." The Man says.

"What's that, pops?" The camera focuses on a pin bearing a unicursal hexagram symbol that the Man is wearing on his tie.

"One day, I'll tell you all about it. Now get some shut-eye. See you first thing in the morning." The Man lifts a music box from a small bedside table and winds it. It plays "As Time Goes By." The Man turns off the light and walks to the door. "Good night, son." He closes the door behind him.

STREET
[ ☾]

The Man walks down the street past a jeweler's and a supper club. He stops at a door and knocks twice, then once, then three times. The door opens and he enters. "Good evening, sir." Lightning flashes and we see that the symbol from the Man's pin is carved into the door.

BUILDING
[ ☾]

The Man walks down a hallway. A Woman in evening dress is sitting on a bench by a stained-glass window. She stands and he takes off his hat. The Man smiles. "Josie. No one told me this initiation was a formal affair." He says.

"Well, someone had to class up the joint, right, Henry?" She adjusts the pin on his tie.

"Ain't that the truth?" Henry asks.

"The hard part's over, right? We made it." Josie says. A Man wearing a hooded cape opens a door. The symbol from Henry's tie pin and the front door is on his cape.

"Ms. Sands?"

Henry smiles at Josie and nods slightly towards the door. Josie walks to the door and pauses to look back at Henry, who smiles again. She walks into the room and the door closes behind her. Henry takes off his hat and coat and sits down in front of the stained-glass window.

Suddenly screaming, loud banging and a voice speaking in Latin can be heard from behind the closed door. Henry hurries into the room, where he finds two men wearing capes dead on the floor in pools of blood. A second is standing in front of Josie, speaking loudly in Latin.

"Secura tibi facias libertate. Servire, te rogamus, audi nos!"

A Third Man wearing the hooded cape speaks to Henry from the floor. His eyes are bleeding. "Henry. Do not let Abaddon get it." He hands Henry a small wooden box upon which is carved the symbol.

Abaddon grabs the second Man, who is still attempting to exorcise her, by the throat. "That's impossible! How?" Abaddon, her eyes black, screams and snaps the Second Man's neck. Her eyes return to normal. Henry runs from the room and Abaddon, her dress bloodstained, walks after him.

Henry enters a room in which there are ingredients in glass beakers, and locks the door behind him. Abaddon walks down the hallway. Henry takes ingredients from a shelf. Abaddon flings out a hand and telekinetically opens a door.

Henry adds ingredients to a bowl and Abaddon opens another door. Henry grabs a knife. She walks down the hallway. Henry cuts his palm and lets his blood drip into the bowl. Abaddon walks down the hallway. Henry draws a symbol on the door with the liquid in the bowl. Abaddon opens another door.

"Kah-nee-lah... Poo-goh." Henry says and Abaddon tries to open a door, but meets resistance. The symbol Henry is drawing glows gold. "Kah-nee-lah... Poo-goh. Kah-nee-lah... Poo-goh." The door shakes. He has completed the symbol. "Kah-nee-lah... Poo-goh." Henry falls through the door in a burst of light.

MOTEL ROOM
[ ☼ ]

Dean is tying his boot laces and Sam stands at the mirror. Henry falls out of the closet. "Which of you is John Winchester?" He asks.

SUPERNATURAL

MOTEL ROOM
[ ☼ ]

"Please, time is of the essence! Which of you is John Winchester?" Henry asks.

"Uh, neither." Sam says.

"That's impossible. That's absolutely... What did I do wrong?" Henry asks.

"Who the hell are you, mister?" Asks Dean.

"Not now. I'm thinking." Henry says. Dean grabs Henry, pushes him against the wall and holds him there with an arm across his chest. "Please. I can assure you there's no need for violence. One of you must know John Winchester."

"I'll tell you what – when one of us falls out of your closet, then you can ask the questions." Sam says.

"Yes, my apologies. Is it absolutely essential, sir, that you keep your hands on me?" Henry asks. Dean steps back. "Thank you. Gentlemen, in the absence of any and all other explanations, I'm afraid this has been a marvelous, tragic misunderstanding. I'll be on my way."

"That's not happening." Sam says.

"There are things of grave importance. I do not have time to deal with the likes of you." Henry says as Dean picks up handcuffs from a bag on the table and Sam grabs Henry. Dean takes hold of Henry's wrist.

"You're not going anywhere, 007, till we get some answers." Dean tries to handcuff Henry to a chair, but in one motion he breaks away and handcuffs Dean and Sam to the chair.

"How did he do that? You got to be kidding me!" Dean yells. Dean and Sam struggle with the handcuffs. Seconds later, Elena comes in carrying groceries.

"What's the hell just happened?" Elena asks. "I was gone for five minutes and you two managed to handcuff each other to a chair. Are you guys fighting again?"

Henry looks at the cars in the car park and a man pushing a modern baby stroller. He sees the Impala, walks behind it and looks at the registration sticker on the license plate, which reads "9-2013."

"2013. My God. Guess the Mayans were wrong." Henry walks to the driver's side, waits until a maid goes inside a room, then breaks the window of the Impala with his elbow. He unlocks the door and gets in.

Dean cocks his gun and points it at Henry through the open window. "Nice taste in wheels." He says. Sam opens the passenger side door.

"Yours, I presume?"

Henry sits in a chair. Water splashes his face and he laughs. "And there with the holy water." He says.

"He's clean." Sam says.

"I could have told you that." Henry pulls down his sleeve over a cut on his left arm.

"Yeah, well, you can start by telling us everything before I beat it out of you." Dean says.

"I'm quite certain this is all beyond your understanding, my alpha-male-monkey friend." Henry says. "And violence will not help you comprehend this any easier."

Dean points his gun at Henry and grabs the front of his jacket. "Let me tell you what I understand! Some asshat pops out of my closet asking about my dad, smashes up my ride. So why am I not getting violent, again?" He asks.

"John Winchester is your father?" Henry asks. There is a loud rattling noise. "What is that?" He gets to his feet. "Oh, my God."

"What?" Elena asks.

"Run!" Henry yells. The closet door bursts opens in a flash of bright light and Abaddon steps out.

"Henry." She laughs. "Silly man, you forgot to lock the door. But then spells never were your best subject, were they? Why don't you be a doll and give me what I want? And I promise to kill you and your friends here quickly."

"You know I can't do that." Henry says.

"You're not a fighter, Henry." Abaddon says and Dean raises his gun. She lifts her arms and sends Dean, Elena and Sam flying into the walls. Henry tries to move but Abaddon holds up a hand to stop him.

"Josie. I know you're still in there. You must fight this." Says Henry.

"I'm afraid Josie's indisposed, pet. It looks like it's just you and me." She says. Dean stabs Abaddon in the back with his demon-killing knife. She screams and falls to her knees with gold light flashing inside her body. "Ohh! Aah!" The light flashing in her body ceases. "Well, that is no way to treat a lady." Sam, Dean, Elena and Henry run from the room.

Dean and Henry are in the front seats of the Impala and Sam and Elena jump into the back seat. "Go, go, go, go, go, go!" Sam yells. Dean backs out of the parking spot while San is still closing his door and drives away towards an oncoming car, tires squealing.

A Man in the motel office watches them and runs outside to shout after them. "Hey! Hey! Hey!" The Man turns around to find Abaddon standing right in front of him. He notices her bloodstained dress. "You okay, lady?" Abaddon grabs the Man's jacket and pulls him towards her. "What the hell are you doing?"

Abaddon breathes black smoke into the Man's mouth. "Show me what you've seen." She says as the Man's eyes turn cloudy and dark.

We see flashbacks of Dean signing the receipt for the motel room as Sam and Elena stand outside the office, Dean, Henry, Elena and Sam run for the Impala, the Impala driving away, it's license plates. The gray then fades from the Man's eyes as black smoke flows from his mouth back to Abaddon's.

"Thank you. By the way, I'm checking out." She slaps the Man hard, breaking his neck, and he drops to his knees.

The Impala drives along a narrow road and passes under a large bridge. Dean pulls over to the side of the road and Henry gets out of the passenger seat. He hurries a short distance away and vomits. Sam and Dean also get out of the car.

"Are you okay?" Sam asks.

"Yes, I will be." Henry vomits again, then wipes his mouth with a handkerchief. "It's just all the adventures I enjoy are usually of the literary nature."

"Yeah, well, now that you're done blowing chunks, you want to tell us who Betty Crocker was?" Dean asks.

"Abaddon. She's a demon." Henry says.

"No kidding. Where'd she come from?" Sam asks.

"Where'd you come from?" Dean asks.

"She's from Hell. I'm from Normal, Illinois – 1958."

"Yeah, right. Seriously? Dudes time-travelling through motel-room closets?" Dean says. "That's what we've come to?"

"If you could just take me to John, we could clear all this up, I'm sure." Henry says.

"I've told you that's not gonna happen." Says Dean.

"Why not?"

"Because he's dead!" Yells Dean.

"No." Henry turns away.

"What's it to you?" Sam asks.

"Everything. I'm his father."

We see a close-up of a black-and-white photograph of Henry holding a baseball with his arm around a young boy holding a bat.
