Clips from 1.01 "Pilot"

The Winchester House.

What happened that night

Young Sam walked into Baby Catty's nursery to see a man's silhouette standing over Baby Catty's crib. "Daddy?"

Mary ran toward the nursery, stopping short.

John gave Baby Catty to Young Sam. "Take your sister outside as fast as you can! Now, Sammy, go!"

Young Sam and Young Dean ran out of the house with Baby Catty.

John looked at the ceiling.

What they witnessed

John watched the nursery burn, Mary with it. "Mary! No!"

Sent two brothers

On Sylvania Bridge, Sam and Dean turned to face the onlookers.

And their sister

In Sam's Apartment, Catty spoke to Sam and Jessica. "Dad's on a hunting trip."

Outside Constance's House, Catty stood outside the Impala with a shotgun, firing at Constance Welch.

In Sam's Apartment's bedroom, Sam pulled out a hook-shaped knife.

In Sam's Apartment, Catty spoke to Sam and Jessica. "And he hasn't been home in a few days."

On a quest for answers 17 years later

In the stairwell outside Sam's Apartment, Sam spoke to Catty and Dean. "I swore I was done hunting."

In the Impala, Constance gripped Sam's heart.

"We can't do this alone," Catty told him.

In Sam's Apartment's bedroom, Sam closed his eyes, lying down, sighing.

Blood dripped onto his forehead. One drop. Two.

Sam flinched, opening his eyes, taking in what he saw, gasping in horror.

Jessica was pinned to the ceiling, staring down at him, bleeding from the belly.

Sam sat up, but looked like he couldn't move. "No!"

Outside Sam's Apartment, Sam and Catty stood at the trunk of the Impala, looking at the arsenal.

Sam's face was set in desperate anger, loading a shotgun.

Dean joined them on the other side of Catty.

Sam tossed the shotgun into the arsenal. "We've got work to do."

In the Jericho County Sheriff's Office, Sheriff tossed down John's Journal.

From 1.02 "Wendigo", in the woods, Dean knelt in front of Sam and Catty, holding John's Journal. "This is Dad's single most valuable possession. Everything he knows about every evil thing is in here. And he's passed it on to us. I think he wants us to pick up where we left off."

From 1.01 "Pilot", in Sam's Apartment's parking lot, the Winchesters looked into the arsenal in the trunk of the Impala.

From 1.01 "Pilot", outside of John's motel room, Sam and Dean were covered in sewer water, playing look out. Catty's arms reached out to grab them and pull them inside.

Dean: (voice over from 1.02 Wendigo) "You know, saving people."

From 1.02 "Wendigo", in the underground mine, after the boys had found the girls and Tommy as they tried to make an escape.

Dean: (voice over from 1.02 Wendigo) "Hunting things."

From 1.02 "Wendigo", in the woods, Dean spoke to Sam and Catty. "The family business."

"No," Sam told them. "I gotta find Jessica's killer. It's the only thing I can think about."

"Okay," Catty told him. "Because whatever it was that killed Jessica..."

From 1.01 "Pilot", in the Winchester House's Baby Catty's nursery, Mary burned on the ceiling.

Catty: (voice over from 1.02 Wendigo) "It killed Mom. Sam, we'll find them."

From 1.02 "Wendigo", outside the Sheriff's Station, Sam, Catty and Dean were leaning against the Impala.

"Guys, you know we're gonna find Dad, right?" Dean asked.

Sam sighed, nodding. "Yeah, I know."

Catty nodded. "Ditto."

Lake Manitoc, Wisconsin

Day One

Morning - Carlton House - Kitchen

A young man was sitting on the kitchen counter, eating cereal.

An elder man sat at the table, reading the newspaper.

A blonde young woman walked into the room, kissing the elder man on the cheek. "Morning, Daddy."

"Morning, sweetheart," her father told her.

The woman walked toward the refrigerator, opening it.

"All these workouts, Sophie, I don't know," the young man told her. "Guys don't like buff girls."

"Yeah, well, girls don't like guys who still live at home," Sophie replied.

The young man drank the milk from his cereal bowl, sliding off the counter, laughing sarcastically. "Ha ha ha."

"Ha ha," Sophie replied, pulling out a water bottle, closing the fridge, walking toward the back door to leave.

"Be careful," the father told her.

Sophie walked out. "I will."

Sophie closed the door behind her.

§

Outside - Lake

Sophie stood on the dock, looking at the lake.

The young man from inside, presumably her brother, watched from a distance.

Sophie dove into the water, swimming for a few long moments, coming up for air, looking around.

No one was there.

Sophie continued to swim underwater, coming up, looking around as if she felt someone was watching her.

No one was above water.

A figure underneath the water approached her, pulling Sophie under, making her disappear completely.

A few bubbles broke through the surface.

Then there was nothing.

§ Worlds Colliding (Supernatural) §

Diner - Outside

A truck drove past a neon sign, behind a building that said:

The Lynnwood Inn

The Impala was parked in front.

§

Inside

(Song:) What a Way to God - Jesse Tumbow (Black Toast Music)

Catty was sitting a the counter, going through the newspaper, finding a new lead for a new job. She saw the obituary for Sophie's drowning.

Carlton, Sophie - The Carlton family is sad to announce the death of their beloved daughter in a tragic swimming accident.

Catty read further on, circling Sophie's picture.

Dean was standing at the other end of the counter, talking to a blonde waitress.

The waitress' name tag said her name was Wendy. "Can I get you anything else?"

Dean smiled.

Sam walked closer, looking at Wendy. "Just the check, please."

"Okay," Wendy told them, walking away.

Dean hung his head in disappointed frustration, looking at Sam.

Sam walked toward Catty, sitting down on one side of her, at the end of the counter.

Dean followed, sitting on the other side of Catty, looking around her to look at Sam. "You know, Sam, we are allowed to have fun once in a while." He pointed in the direction Wendy had walked away. "That's fun."

Sam didn't answer, looking around Catty to look at Dean.

Catty looked up, showing them the newspaper. "Here, take a look at this. I think I got one. Lake Manitoc, Wisconsin. Last week, Sophie Carlton, 18, walks into the lake, doesn't walk out. Authorities dragged the water. Nothing. Sophie Carlton is the third Lake Manitoc drowning this year. None of the other bodies were found, either. They had a funeral two days ago."

"Funeral?" Dean repeated.

"Yeah," Catty answered. "It's weird. They buried an empty coffin for closure or whatever."

"Closure?" Sam repeated. "What closure? People don't just disappear, Catty. Other people just stop looking for them."

"Something you want to say?" Dean asked.

"The trail for Dad," Sam told them. "It's getting colder every day."

"Exactly," Dean told him. "So, what are we supposed to do?"

"I don't know," Sam told them. "Something. Anything."

"You know what?" Dean asked. "I'm sick of this attitude. You don't think we want to find Dad as much as you do?"

"Come on, guys, don't start this," Catty told them.

Sam ignored her. "Yeah, I know you do. It's just—"

"Hello," Catty told them.

Dean ignored her. "We're the ones that've been with him every single day for the past two years." Catty sighed an annoyed sigh, taking two glasses of water from the counter. "While you've been off to college going to pep rallies."

Dean and Sam started speaking at the same time with different words that it was hard to tell the difference.

Catty splashed Dean and Sam in the face with water, making them stop fighting.

Dean and Sam looked startled, yet not surprised that Catty would do something like that, almost as if she had done it before.

Catty placed the glasses down, looking between Dean and Sam. "We will find Dad, but until then, we're gonna kill everything bad between here and there, okay?"

Wendy walked past them.

Dean tilted his head to watch her go, using a napkin to wipe the water away.

Sam sighed, rubbing the water off his face. "All right. Lake Manitoc. How far?"

§

Lake Manitoc

(Song:) Round and Round - Ratt

Road

The Impala passed by a clothesline with white sheets.

§

Bridge

The Impala crossed a bridge, passing someone fishing off to the side.

§

Road

The Impala drove past a sign:

Welcome to Lake Manitoc, WI.

§

Carlton House - Outside

The Impala pulled up in front of the Carlton house, the engine turning off.

§

Porch

Sam knocked on the door.

Sophie's brother answered the door.

"Will Carlton?" Catty asked.

"Yeah, that's right," Will answered.

"I'm Agent Fisher," Catty told him. She nodded to Dean. "This is Agent Ford." She nodded to Sam. "And this is Agent Hamill. We're with the US Wildlife Service."

Catty showed her fake badge.

§

Outback

Will led them to the backyard several yards away from the lake, turning to face them. "She was about 100 yards out. That's where she got dragged down."

"And you're sure she didn't just drown?" Dean asked.

"Yeah," Will answered. "She was a varsity swimmer. She practically grew up in that lake. She's as safe out there as in her own bathtub."

"So, no splashing, no signs of distress?" Sam asked.

"No," Will answered. "That's what I'm telling you."

"Did you see any shadows in the water?" Sam asked. "Maybe some dark shape breach the surface?"

"No," Will answered. "Again, she was really far out there."

"You ever see any strange tracks by the shoreline?" Catty asked.

"No, never," Will answered. "Why? What do you think's out there?"

"We'll let you know as soon as we do," Catty told him.

Dean walked away.

Sam looked at Will. "What about your father? Can we talk to him?" Will looked over his shoulder to look at the man sitting on a bench on the dock over the lake. He looked at Sam and Catty. "Look, if you don't mind. I mean, he didn't see anything, and he's kind of been through a lot."

Catty nodded. "We understand."

Sam and Catty turned around, walking toward the car.

§

Police Station - Main Room

The local sheriff was standing behind the desk, walking toward the gate. "Now, I'm sorry, but why does that Wildlife Service care about an accidental drowning?"

Sheriff opened the gate to let Sam, Dean and Catty through.

"You sure it's accidental?" Catty asked. "Will Carlton saw something grab his sister."

Sheriff looked at Catty cautiously. "Seem a little young to be part of the Wildlife Service."

"Oh, no, I'm not, completely, yet," Catty told him.

Sheriff nodded in understanding. "Field training."

"Yep," Catty told him.

"Here, sit, please," Sheriff told them. Dean, Sam and Catty sat on one side of the desk, looking slightly relieved. Sheriff stood on the other. Dean looked at the name plague to see the Sheriff's name was Jake Devins. "There are no indigenous carnivores in that lake. There's nothing even big enough to pull down a person, unless it was the Loch Ness Monster."

Dean, Sam and Catty exchanged a slightly amused, knowing look, smirking.

Dean chuckled. "Yeah, right."

"Will Carlton was traumatized, and sometimes the mind plays tricks," Jake told them. "Still, we dragged that entire lake. We even ran a sonar sweep just to be sure, and there was nothing down there."

"That's weird, though," Catty told him. "That's the third missing body this year."

"I know," Jake told them. "These are people from my town. These are people I care about."

Catty nodded. "I know."

"Anyway..." Jake trailed off, sighing, sitting back. "And this, it won't be a problem much longer."

"What do you mean?" Dean asked.

"Well, the dam, of course," Jake answered.

Sam nodded.

"Of course," Dean told them. "The dam." He looked from Sam and Catty to Jake. "It's, uh... It sprung a leak."

"It's falling apart, and the Feds won't give us the grant to repair it, so they've opened the spillway," Jake told them. "In another six months, there won't be much of a lake. There won't be much of a town, either. But as Federal Wildlife, you already knew that."

Catty nodded. "Exactly."

A woman walked inside. "Sorry. Am I interrupting?" They stood, turning to face her. "I can come back later."

"This is my daughter," Jake told them.

Dean walked forward. "It's a pleasure to meet you." He shook her hand. "I'm Dean."

"Andrea Barr," the woman told them. "Hi."

"Hi," Dean told her.

"They're from the Wildlife Service about the lake," Jake told her.

Andrea nodded. "Oh."

A little boy walked in, standing next to Andrea.

"Oh, hey, there," Catty told him. "What's your name?"

The little boy turned around, walking out of the room.

Andrea followed him.

"His name is Lucas," Jake told them.

Catty looked at Jake. "Is he okay?"

"My grandson's been through a lot," Jake told them. "We all have." He walked toward the door. "Well, if there's anything else I can do for you, please let me know."

"Thanks," Sam told him, leading the way toward of the door. Dean and Catty started to follow. Sam stopped, turning to Jake. "You know, now that you mentioned it, could you point us in the direction of a reasonably priced motel?"

"Lakefront Motel," Andrea answered. "Go around the corner, it's two blocks up."

"Two..." Dean trailed off. "Would you mind showing us?"

Andrea chuckled. "You want me to walk you two blocks?"

"Not if it's any trouble," Dean told her.

"I'm headed that way, anyway," Andrea told them. She turned to Jake. "I'll be back to pick up Lucas at 3:00." She turned to Lucas. "We'll go to the park, okay, sweetie?"

Lucas didn't answer.

Andrea led the way toward the door.

Sam looked at Jake. "Thanks, again."

§

Street

Andrea led the way down the sidewalk.

Sam, Dean and Catty followed her.

"So, cute kid," Dean told her.

"Thanks," Andrea told him, leading the way across the street.

"Kids are the best, huh?" Dean asked.

Sam and Catty exchanged an amused, knowing look.

Andrea stopped in front of the motel. "There it is. Like I said, two blocks."

"Thanks," Sam told her.

Andrea looked at Dean. "Must be hard, with your sense of direction, never being able to find your way to a decent pickup line." She started to walk away. Dean watched her go, speechless. Catty laughed in surprise. Andrea looked back. "Enjoy your stay."

Andrea walked away, leaving.

Catty nodded. "I like her."

Sam looked at Dean. "'Kids are the best'? You don't even like kids."

"I love kids," Dean told them.

"Name three children that you even know," Sam told him.

Dean opened his mouth as if to answer, but no sound came out.

Sam waved him off dismissively, walking toward the motel.

Dean scratched his head awkwardly. "I'm thinking."

Catty smiled, walking toward the motel.

Dean followed them.

§

Motel Room

Dean was preparing weapons.

Catty was in her side of the joined room, putting her bag on the bed.

Sam sat at the laptop, having a browser window open to the Lake Manitoc Tribune.

Drowning Taints Ice Fishing Festival.

Sam clicked on another browser, again with the Tribune.

12-year-old Girl Drowns in Lake.

Second drowning in 6 months at Lake Manitoc

"So, there's the three drowning victims this year," Sam told them.

"And before that?" Catty asked.

"Uh, yeah," Sam answered. "Six more, spread out over the past 35 years. Those bodies were never recovered, either. If there is something out there, it's picking up its pace."

"So we got a lake monster on a binge?" Dean asked.

"This whole lake monster theory, it just bugs me," Sam told them.

Catty walked into their side of the room, toward Sam. "Why?"

Catty looked over Sam's shoulder to look at the screen cluttered with online news articles.

"Loch Ness, Lake Champlain, there are literally hundreds of eyewitness accounts, but here, almost nothing," Sam told them. "Whatever it is out there, no one's living to talk about it."

Dean smirked, chuckling. "Loch Ness." He looked at Catty and Sam sarcastically. "Hey, maybe our dear old friend Ness has heard about what her evil twin is doing."

Catty and Sam chuckled.

Catty smiled. "You know, we haven't even heard from Ness since her dad nearly buckshot our dad." Dean cleared his throat awkwardly as if there was something more to that story they didn't know about. "I miss Ness." Catty sighed, looking at the computer screen. "Yeah." She saw something, pointing at the screen. "Wait. Barr. Christopher Barr. Where have I heard that name before?"

"Christopher Barr, the victim in May," Sam told them, pulling up the article, a picture of the victim and Lucas. "Oh. Christopher Barr was Andrea's husband, Lucas' father. Apparently, he took Lucas out swimming. Lucas was on a floating wooden platform when Chris drowned two hours before the kid got rescued. Maybe we have an eyewitness after all."

"No wonder that kid was so freaked out," Catty told them. "Watching one of your parents die isn't something you just get over, no matter how young you are."

§

Park

Kids were laughing and playing.

Andrea was sitting on a bench, watching Lucas.

Lucas was at another bench, coloring and playing with toy soldiers.

Sam, Dean and Catty walked toward Andrea.

"Can we join you?" Sam asked.

"I'm here with my son," Andrea told them.

Catty looked toward Lucas. "Oh. Mind if I say hi?" Sam and Dean sat next to Andrea. Catty approached Lucas. "How's it going?" Lucas didn't answer. Catty knelt on the other side of the bench, chuckling, looking at the little toy soldiers. "Oh, I used to love these things. See, even as a kid, I was never a normal little girl. So crayons is more your thing? That's cool. Little advice? Girls love artists." She looked at the drawings, the top one being a tornado, the next one being a red bite. "Hey, these are pretty good." She looked at Lucas. "You mind if I sit and draw with you for a while? I'm not so bad myself." She picked up a pile of paper, sitting on the bench, drawing. "You know, I'm thinking you can hear me. You just don't want to talk. I don't know exactly what happened to your dad, but I know it was something real bad. I think I know how you feel. When I was your age, younger, even, I saw something. Anyway... Well, maybe you don't think anyone will listen to you, or, uh... or believe you. I want you to know that I will. You don't even have to say anything. You could draw me a picture about what you saw that day with your dad on the lake." Lucas didn't answer. "Okay, no problem." Catty handed him her drawing. "This is for you. This is my family. That's my dad. That's... that's my mom. That's my geek brother. That's my cool brother. And that's me. I'll see you around, Lucas."

Catty stood, walking away.

Lucas stopped drawing, picking up the drawing Catty had made.

Catty approached Sam, Andrea and Dean on their bench.

"Lucas hasn't said a word, not even to me," Andrea told them. "Not since his dad's accident."

"Yeah, we heard," Dean told her. "Sorry."

Andrea nodded sadly.

"What are the doctors saying?" Sam asked.

"That it's a kind of post-traumatic stress," Andrea answered.

"That can't be easy for either of you," Catty told her.

"We moved in with my dad," Andrea told them. "He helps out a lot. It's just... When I think about what Lucas went through, what he saw..."

"Kids are strong," Dean told her. "You'd be surprised with what they can deal with."

"You know, he used to have such life," Andrea told them. "He was hard to keep up with, to tell you the truth. Now he just sits there. Drawing those pictures, playing with those army men. I just wish..." Lucas walked toward them. "Hey, sweetie."

Lucas handed Catty the drawing in his hand without a word.

Catty looked at the drawing of the Carlton House, looking at him. "Thanks. Thanks, Lucas."

Lucas turned around, walking toward his bench.

Sam, Dean and Catty exchanged a look.

Andrea looked at Catty curiously, obviously wondering what she had said to him.

§

Night - Carlton House - Living Room

Mr. Carlton, Sophie and Will's father, was sitting in a chair, doing nothing.

Will approached. "Hey, Dad. You—you should probably eat something. I'm gonna make some dinner, okay?"

Mr. Carlton didn't answer, turning his head away.

§

Kitchen

Will washed a fish in the sink, cutting up the fish. He did not turn the water off when he began cutting up the fish.

The water from the tap turned brown.

Will noticed, turning the water off.

Black water came up through the drain, filling the sink.

Will rolled up his sleeve to pull the plug out of the drain. He came up with the plug, but the water did not drain. He reached into the water to find something else that was clogging the drain.

Something grabbed his arm, pulling him into the sink.

Will struggled uselessly, trying to come up for air. Whatever held him under was stronger than he was. He slowly stopped fighting as he was forced to let the water in, drowning.

The water drained, leaving Will's head in the sink, dead.

§

Day Two

Morning - Motel

Catty walked into the motel room, closing the door behind her, looking at Sam and Dean. "So, I think it's safe to say we can rule out Nessie. Our Ness will be ecstatic to hear that her evil twin is not the one doing the bad."

"What do you mean?" Sam asked.

"I just drove past the Carlton House," Catty told them. "There was an ambulance there. Will Carlton is dead."

"He drowned?" Sam asked.

"Yep," Catty answered. "In the sink."

"What the hell?" Dean asked. He stood. "So this isn't a creature. We're dealing with something else."

"Yeah, but what?" Sam asked.

"I don't know," Catty told them. "But I was hoping it was Ness' evil twin." Sam and Dean smirked. Catty walked closer, sitting at the table. "But now, we're thinking... A Water Wraith, maybe. Some kind of Demon? I mean, something that controls water..." She looked up in realization. "Water that comes from the same source."

"The lake," Dean realized.

"Yeah," Catty agreed.

"Which would explain why it's upping the body count," Sam told them. "The lake is draining. It'll be dry in a few months. Whatever this thing it, whatever it wants, it's running out of time."

"And if it can get through the pipes, it an get to anyone almost anywhere," Dean told them. "This is gonna happen again soon."

"And we do know one other thing for sure," Catty told them. "This has got something to do with Bill Carlton."

Sam nodded in agreement. "It took both his kids."

"And I've been asking around," Catty told them. "Lucas' dad, Chris? Bill Carlton's godson."

Dean took this in. "Let's go pay Mr. Carlton a visit."

§

Carlton House - Outside

Bill Carlton was sitting on the dock.

Sam, Dean and Catty walked toward him.

"Mr. Carlton?" Sam asked. "We'd like to ask you a few questions, if you don't mind."

"We're from the department—" Dean started.

"I don't care who you're with," Bill told them. "I've answered enough question today."

"Your son said he saw something in that lake," Catty told him. "What about you? You ever see anything out there?" Bill didn't answer. "Mr. Carlton, Sophie's drowning and Will's death. We think there might be a connection to you or your family."

"My children are gone," Bill told them. "It's... It's worse than dying. Go away. Please."

They turned around, walking toward the Impala.

"What do you think?" Sam asked.

"I think the poor guy's been through hell," Dean answered. "I also think he's not telling us something."

"So now what?" Sam asked. Catty didn't answer, looking at the house. "What is it?"

"Huh," Catty told them. "Maybe Bill's not the only one who knows something."

Catty took out Lucas' drawing from her pocket, comparing the two houses.

It was exactly the same.

§

Barr House - Living Room

Sam, Dean, Catty and Andrea stood together.

"I'm sorry, but I don't think it's a good idea," Andrea told them.

"I just need to talk to him," Catty told her. "Just for a few minutes."

"He won't say anything," Andrea told them. "What good's it gonna do?"

"Andrea, we think more people might get hurt," Sam told her. "We think something's happening out there."

"My husband, the others, they just drowned," Andrea told them. "That's all."

"If that's what you really believe, then we'll go," Dean told her. "But if you think there's even a possibility that something else could be going on here, please let her talk to your son."

§

Lucas' Room

Lucas was sitting on the floor, drawing.

Andrea let Sam, Dean and Catty inside.

Catty knelt next to Lucas. "Hey, Lucas. You remember me?" Lucas didn't answer. Catty looked at the drawings of a red bike. "You know, I, uh, I wanted to think you for that last drawing. But the thing is, I need your help again." She pulled out the drawing of the Carlton House, placing it down. "How did you know to draw this? Did you know something bad was gonna happen? Maybe you could nod yes or no for me. You're scared. It's okay. I understand. See, when I was younger than you are now, I saw something real bad happen to my mom, and I was scared, too. I didn't feel like talking, just like you, but, see, my mom, I know she wanted me to be brave. I think about that every day. And I do my best to be brave. And maybe your dad wants you to be brave, too." Lucas looked up, handing her another drawing. It was of another house, this time yellow with fences, next to a white church. "Thanks, Lucas."

§

On the Road - The Impala

(Song:) Too Daze Gone - Billy Squire

Dean was driving. 

Sam was in the passenger seat. 

Catty was in the backseat, looking at the drawing.

"Andrea said the kid never drew like that till his dad died," Dean told them.

"There are cases going through a traumatic experience could make certain people more sensitive to premonitions, psychic tendencies," Sam told them.

"Whatever is happening, what if Lucas is tapping into it somehow?" Catty asked. Sam and Dean looked skeptical. "It's only a matter of time before somebody else drowns, so if you guys got a better lead, please."

"All right," Sam told them. "We got another house to find."

"The only problem is that there's about a thousand yellow two-stories in this county alone," Dean told them.

"You see this church?" Catty asked. "I bet there's less than a thousand of those around here."

"Oh, valedictorian girl thinks she's so smart," Dean told her.

Catty chuckled.

Sam hesitated, looking over his shoulder to look at his sister. "You know, um, Catty... What you said about Mom... You never told us that before."

"I was a baby, barely one," Catty told them. "The only memory I have of Mom is that night, and it's... It's hardly anything. All I can remember is fire and blood, and that's it."

"Exactly," Dean told her. "Catty, we thought you didn't remember it at all."

"Well, for a while, I didn't remember," Catty told them. "The older I got, the more I thought about it... That's when it started to come back. But the memory's too foggy and vague. I can't see anything clearly."

"Doesn't matter, Cat," Sam told her. "Part of you still remembers."

"It's no big deal," Catty told them. Sam and Dean exchanged a look, looking at Catty. "Oh, God. We're not gonna have to hug or anything, are we?"

Sam and Dean smirked, looking away.

(Song Ends)

§

Church - Outside

Sam, Dean and Catty approached a white church shaped like the one in Lucas' picture.

Catty held up the picture, comparing it to the scene in front of them.

There was a yellow house next to the church and a wooden fence near the house.

Sam and Dean looked at Catty.

Catty shrugged.

They looked up at the church, crossing the street toward the house.

§

Sweeney House - Living Room

A woman led Sam, Dean and Catty inside.

"We're sorry to bother you, ma'am," Catty told her. "But does a little boy live here by chance? He might wear a blue ball cap, has a red bicycle."

"No, ma'am," the woman answered. "Not for a very long time. Peter's been gone for 35 years now." She sighed. "The police never... I never had any idea what happened. He just disappeared. Losing him..." Sam pointed out to Dean and Catty a number of toy soldiers on a table. "You know, it's... it's worse than dying."

Sam, Dean and Catty exchanged a look.

Dean looked at the woman. "Did he disappear from here? I mean, this house?"

"He was supposed to ride his bike straight home after school, and he never showed up," the woman told them.

Sam walked toward the picture of a boy on his bike, another boy standing next to him, taking it off, turning it over to read the writing on the back. "'Peter Sweeney and Bill Carlton, 1970'."

§

Lake

Bill was sitting on the bench on the dock, talking to the lake. "You've taken everything. Everyone. I've got nothing left. I didn't understand. I didn't believe. Now I think I do. I think I finally know what you want."

§

On the Road - The Impala

Dean was driving.

Sam was in the passenger seat.

Catty was in the backseat.

"Okay, this little boy, Peter Sweeney, vanishes, and this is all connected to Bill Carlton somehow," Sam told them.

"Yeah, Bill sure as hell seems to be hiding something," Catty told them.

"Bill, the people he loves, they're all getting punished," Sam told them.

"What if Bill did something to Peter?" Dean asked.

"What if Bill killed him?" Sam asked.

"Peter's Spirit would be furious," Catty told them. "It'd want revenge. It's possible."

§

Carlton House - Outside

The Impala pulled to a stop outside the house.

Sam, Dean and Catty got out of the car, walking toward the house.

"Mr. Carlton!" Sam called.

They heard an engine roar.

§

Lake

Bill was going out onto the lake in his boat.

Sam, Dean and Catty walked around back.

"Hey, check it out," Dean told them. Sam, Dean and Catty ran toward the end of the dock, yelling. "Mr. Carlton! You need to come back! Come out of the water! Turn the boat around!"

"Mr. Carlton!" Catty told him.

Bill ignored them, continuing on.

The water rose up, flipping Bill boat over into the water. Both the boat and Bill vanished.

Sam, Dean and Catty exhaled in defeat.

§

Sheriff's Station

Lucas was sitting in a chair, rocking slightly back and forth nervously.

Andrea sat next to Lucas in concern, confused by his behavior, holding a to-go bag. "Baby, what's wrong?" Lucas didn't answer. Jake led Sam, Dean and Catty into the station. Andrea stood, turning to them. "Sam. Dean. Catty. I didn't expect to see you here."

"So, now you're on a first-name basis," Jake told her, opening the gate, leading the way inside. "What are you doing here?"

"I brought you dinner," Andrea told him.

Lucas looked as if he was going to cry.

"I'm sorry, sweetheart," Jake told her, taking off his jacket. "I really don't have the time."

"I heard about Bill Carlton," Andrea told him. "Is it true? Is something going on with the lake?"

"Right now, we don't know what the truth is," Jake told her. Catty noticed how nervous Lucas was, even a little bit afraid. "But I think it might be better if you and Lucas went home."

Lucas whimpered, standing, running toward Catty, wrapping his arms around her.

"Lucas, hey," Catty told him. "What is it? Lucas."

Andrea walked closer, pulling him away from Catty lightly, worriedly. "Lucas."

Lucas grabbed Catty's arm.

"Lucas, it's okay," Catty told him. "It's okay."

Lucas had tears in his eyes, letting go.

Andrea led Lucas toward the door.

Lucas looked over his shoulder and past Andrea to look toward the others.

Andrea led Lucas outside, leaving.

Jake, Sam and Dean walked into Jake's office.

Catty watched Andrea and Lucas go, wondering what was wrong, concerned.

§

Jake's Office

Sam, Catty and Dean were sitting on one side of the desk.

Jake was sitting on the other side of the desk. "Okay, just so I'm clear, you see... Something attacked Bill's boat, sending Bill, who is a very good swimmer, by the way, into the drink, and you never see him again?"

"Yeah, that about sums it up," Dean told him.

"And I'm supposed to believe this, even though I've already sonar swept that entire lake, and what you're describing is impossible, and you're not really Wildlife Service?" Jake asked. Sam, Catty and Dean kept their expressions clear of a reaction. "That's right. I checked. The department's never heard of you three."

"See?" Dean asked. "Now, we can explain that."

"Enough, please," Jake told them. "The only reason you're breathing free air is one of Bill's neighbors saw him steering out that boat just before you did. So, we have a couple of options here. I can arrest you for impersonating government officials and hold you as material witnesses to Bill Carlton's disappearance, or we can chalk this all up to a bad day. You get into your car, you put this town in your rear view mirror, and you don't ever darken my doorstep again."

Sam nodded. "Door number two sounds good."

Catty tilted her head in acknowledgement.

Jake looked at them seriously. "That's the one I'd pick."

§

Night - Barr House - Lucas' Room

Lucas was in his room with the toy soldiers, drawing another black spiral.

Andrea walked by his door in a bathrobe. "Baby, what are you doing? Come on. Let's go to bed."

Andrea walked closer, picking Lucas up to put him to bed.

§

On the Road - The Impala

Catty was driving.

Dean was in the passenger seat.

Sam was in the backseat.

They were waiting at a traffic light.

A sign said:

I-43 North to Milwaukee

With an arrow pointing to the left.

The light turned green.

Catty didn't move.

Dean looked at Catty. "Green."

"What?" Catty asked.

"Light's green," Dean told her.

Catty turned to the right, driving.

"Uh, the interstate's the other way," Sam told her.

Catty nodded. "I know."

Dean and Sam exchanged a confused look.

§

Barr House - Bathroom

Andrea was in the bathroom. She plugged the drain of her tub, turning the water on.

§

On the Road - The Impala

Catty was driving.

Dean was in the passenger seat.

Sam was in the backseat.

"But, Catty, this job, I think it's over," Sam told her.

"I'm not so sure," Catty told them.

"If Bill murdered Peter Sweeney, and Peter's Spirit got its revenge, case closed," Dean told them. "The Spirit should be at rest."

"So, what if we take off and this thing isn't done?" Catty asked. "What if we missed something? What if more people get hurt?"

"But why would you think that?" Sam asked.

"Because Lucas was really scared," Catty answered.

"That's what this is about?" Dean asked.

Catty sighed. "I just don't want to leave town till I know the kid's okay."

Dean and Sam exchanged a look, sighing, shaking their heads, knowing that they weren't going to win the argument.

§

Barr House - Bathroom

The bathtub was mostly full.

Andrea tested the water with one hand, taking off her robe, getting into the water. She leaned back, grabbing a washcloth, closing her eyes.

The water coming from the faucet turned brown.

Andrea started washing herself with the cloth, opening her eyes.

The water was entirely brown now.

Andrea screamed, trying to get out of the tub.

Something dragged Andrea underwater.

§

Hallway

Lucas pounded on the bathroom door worriedly.

§

Bathroom

Andrea's head was pulled under the water. She pulled it out, gasping for breath. She was pulled under again.

Lucas kept pounding.

Andrea was hidden completely under the water.

§

Outside - Porch

Sam, Catty and Dean had arrived to the Barr house.

"Are you sure about this?" Sam asked. "It's pretty late."

Catty ignored him, ringing the doorbell.

Lucas opened the door, breathing heavily in fear.

"Lucas?" Catty asked. Lucas turned around, running upstairs. "Lucas!" Sam, Catty and Dean followed Lucas inside. "Lucas!"

§

Inside - Hallway

Water was flowing out over the floor from under the bathroom door.

Lucas led the siblings to the door.

Dean kicked the door in, running inside.

Sam followed Dean inside.

Catty held Lucas back, turning him away so he didn't have to see.

The bathtub was overflowing with the brown lake water.

Sam and Dean reached inside, pulling Andrea above the surface with all the strength they had.

Andrea gasped for breath.

Sam and Dean pulled her out of the water, falling onto the floor.

Andrea coughed and gasped, trying to catch her breath.

Lucas started to cry silently.

Catty knelt next to Lucas, wrapping her arms around him comfortingly.

§

Day Three

Morning - Barr House - Living Room

Andrea and Catty sat in the living room. Andrea was dry, wearing comfortable clothing, shaken up.

"Can you tell me?" Catty asked.

"No," Andrea told her. Dean and Sam were looking through notebooks on bookshelves. "It doesn't make any sense." Andrea started to cry. "I'm going crazy."

Andrea put her hands to her face.

"No, you're not," Catty told her. "Tell me what happened. Everything."

"I heard..." Andrea trailed off. "I thought I heard... There was this voice."

"What did it say?" Catty asked.

"It said—It said, 'Come play with me'," Andrea answered, sobbing. "What's happening?"

Dean pulled out a scrapbook that said:

Jake - 12 years old

Dean opened it, flipping pages. He closed it, walking toward the others, putting the book down in front of Andrea, opening to a picture of Explorer Troop 37. "Do you recognize he kids in these pictures?"

"What?" Andrea asked. "Um, no. I mean, except that's my dad right there." She pointed to the kid next to Peter Sweeney. "He must have been about 12 in these pictures."

"Chris Barr's drowning," Dean told them. "The connection wasn't to Bill Carlton. It must have been to Sheriff."

"Bill and the Sheriff," Sam told them. "They were both involved with Peter."

"What about Chris?" Andrea asked. Catty looked toward Lucas. Lucas was looking outside the window. "My dad... what are you talking about?"

"Lucas?" Catty asked. Andrea followed her gaze. "Lucas, what is it?"

Lucas opened the door, walking outside.

§

Outside - Woods by the Lake

Andrea, Catty, Sam and Dean followed Lucas out into the woods by the lake.

"Lucas, honey?" Andrea asked.

Lucas stopped walking, standing on a mound of dirt, looking at Catty.

Catty looked at Lucas, but she was talking to Andrea. "You and Lucas get back to the house and stay there, okay?"

Andrea took Lucas' arm, leading him back to the house.

§

Later

Sam, Catty and Dean each had a shovel, digging up the dirt mound.

Sam's shovel clanked against something.

They dug with their hands the rest of the way, pulling out a red bicycle.

"Peter's bike," Catty told them.

They heard Jake's voice. "Who are you?"

Sam, Catty and Dean turned to face Jake.

Jake pointed a gun at them.

"Put the gun down, Jake," Sam told him.

Sam, Catty and Dean dropped the shovels.

"How did you know that was there?" Jake asked.

"What happened?" Dean asked. "You and Bill killed Peter, drowned him in the lake and buried the bike? You can't bury the truth, Jake. Nothing stays buried."

§

Barr House - Living Room

Andrea looked through a window to see Jake training his gun on Dean, Catty and Sam. She looked at Lucas. "Go to your room, sweetie. Now. Lock the door and wait for me. Don't come out."

Lucas ran off.

Andrea walked outside.

§

Woods by the Lake

Jake kept his gun aimed at Sam, Catty and Dean. "I don't know what the hell you're talking about."

"You and Bill killed Peter Sweeney 35 years ago," Catty told him. "That's what the hell we're talking about."

Andrea ran toward them. "Dad!"

"And now you got one seriously pissed off Spirit," Catty told him.

"It's gonna take Andrea, Lucas, everyone you love," Sam told him. "It's gonna drown them, and it's gonna drag their bodies God knows where, so you can feel the same pain Peter's mom felt. And then after that, it's gonna take you, and it's not gonna stop until it does."

"Yeah?" Jake asked. "And how do you know that?"

"Because that's exactly what it did to Bill Carlton," Sam answered.

"Listen to yourselves, all of you," Jake told them. "You're insane."

"I don't really give a rat's ass what you think of us, but if we're gonna bring down this Spirit, we need to find the remains, salt them, and burn them into dust," Dean told him. "Tell me you buried Peter somewhere. Tell me you didn't just let him go in the lake."

Jake didn't answer.

§

Barr House - Living Room

Lucas hadn't gone to his room. He was standing at the window that Andrea had been, watching the others outside.

He could hear Peter Sweeney's voice. "Come play with me."

Lucas followed the voice, walking outside.

§

Woods by the Lake

Andrea looked at Jake. "Dad, is any of this true?"

Jake hesitated. "No. Don't listen to them. They're liars, and they're dangerous."

"Something tried to drown me," Andrea told him. "Chris died on that lake. Dad, look at me." Jake reluctantly looked at her. "Tell me you—you didn't kill anyone." Jake didn't answer, looking away, breathing slightly heavy. Andrea knew the answer. "Oh, my God."

"Billy and I were at the lake," Jake told them. "Peter was the smallest one. We always bullied him, but this time... it got rough. We were holding his head under the water. We didn't mean to, but we held him under too long, and he drowned. We let the body go, and it sank." Catty looked at Sam and Dean. "Oh, Andrea. We were kids. We were so scared. It was a mistake, but, Andrea, to say that I have anything to do with these drownings, with Chris, because of some Ghost... It's not rational."

"All right, listen to me, all of you," Dean told them. "We need to get you away from this lake as far as we can right now."

Andrea looked behind Catty, gasping.

Catty turned to follow her gaze.

Lucas was by the lake.

"Lucas!" Jake told him.

Everyone ran toward the lake and Lucas.

  §  

Lake

Lucas stood on the dock, kneeling down, reaching a hand into the water.

He heard Peter's voice. "Come play with me."

"Lucas!" Catty called.

"Lucas!" Andrea told him. "Stay where you are!"

Peter's hand reached out of the water to grab Lucas', pulling him into the water.

Sam, Dean and Catty ran onto the dock.

Peter raised his head over the surface, glaring at Jake.

Jake stopped in shock, gasping.

Peter went back underwater, holding Lucas under.

Sam, Dean and Catty reached the end of the dock, diving into the water instantly.

Andrea ran onto the dock. "Oh, my God!"

Sam came up for air. "Andrea, stay there."

"No," Andrea told him. "Lucas!"

"We'll get him," Sam told her. "Stay on the dock."

Sam went underwater to look for them.

Andrea fell to her knees on the dock.

Sam, Dean and Catty came up for air.

"Sam?" Dean asked. "Catty?"

Sam and Catty shook their heads.

Sam, Dean and Catty went back underwater.

"Lucas, where are you?" Andrea called.

Jake took off his jacket, stepping into the water. "Peter, if you can hear me..." He continued into the water until he was waist deep. "Please, Peter. I'm sorry." He went to shoulder deep. "I'm so—I'm so sorry."

"Daddy, no!" Andrea told him.

Jake ignored her. "Peter. Lucas... He's—he's just a little boy. Please, it's not his fault. It's mine. Please take me."

Sam, Dean and Catty came up for air, seeing Jake in the water, instantly knowing what he was doing.

"Jake, no!" Dean told him.

Peter surfaced.

"Let it be over," Jake told him.

Peter pulled Jake underwater.

"Daddy!" Andrea told him. "Daddy! No!" Sam, Dean and Catty went back under to look for them. Andrea started to cry. "No!"

Sam and Dean came back up, shaking their head.

Andrea was despaired, crying, unable to say anything.

Catty breached the surface, holding Lucas. She gasped for breath. Lucas didn't move.

§

Day Four

Morning - Motel - Outside

Sam, Dean and Catty walked toward the car.

"Catty..." Sam trailed off.

Catty didn't say anything, putting her stuff into the backseat of the car.

Dean looked at Catty. "Look, we're not gonna save everybody."

Catty nodded. "I know."

Andrea and Lucas walked toward them.

Sam, Dean and Catty walked toward them.

"Hey," Dean told them.

"We're glad we caught you," Andrea told them. "We just, um, we made you lunch for the road." Lucas held a plate. "Lucas insisted on making the sandwiches himself."

Lucas looked at Andrea. "Can I give it to them now?"

Catty smiled, looking at Sam and Dean.

"Of course," Andrea answered, kissing Lucas' head.

"Come on, Lucas," Catty told him. "Let's load this in the car."

Catty took the plate, walking toward the car.

Lucas followed her.

Sam looked at Dean and Andrea for a moment, nodding, walking toward the trunk to pack up their things.

Dean looked at Andrea. "How you holding up?"

"It's just gonna take a long time to sort through everything, you know?" Andrea asked.

Dean sighed. "Andrea, I'm sorry."

Andrea shook her head. "You saved my son. I can't ask for more than that. Dad loved me. He loved Lucas. No matter what he did, I just have to hold on to that." She kissed Dean briefly. "Thank you."

Dean thought for a moment, scratching his head, nodding, walking toward Sam at the trunk.

Andrea smiled.

At the car, Catty set the plate down on the front seat, turning to face Lucas. "All right, if you're gonna be talking now, this is a very important phrase, so I want you to repeat it back to me one more time."

"I'm the man of the house now," Lucas told her. "I gotta take care of Mom."

Catty smiled. "That's right." She held up her hand. "Up high." Lucas high-fived her, smiling. "You take care of yourself, too, okay?" Lucas nodded. "All right." Catty stood. Lucas embraced her. Catty smiled a small smile, having one arm around him, using her other to mess with his hair. Lucas smiled, pulling away. Sam, Dean and Andrea walked closer. Sam and Dean raised their eyebrows at Catty. "Sam, Dean, move your asses. We're gonna run out of daylight before we hit the road."

Catty sat in the passenger seat, closing the door.

Dean walked toward the driver's seat, getting in, closing the door.

Sam sat in the backseat.

Dean started the car, the music starting.

(Song:) Moving On - Bad Company

Catty, Sam and Dean looked at Andrea and Lucas outside of the car, smiling, waving goodbye.

Andrea hugged Lucas from behind. They both smiled, waving goodbye.

The Impala backed away, turning to the right, driving away, leaving.

Lucas and Andrea watched them go for a moment, turning to leave.

§

On the Road

The Impala drove down the road, leaving Lake Manitoc, Wisconsin probably forever.
