IMPALA

Dean is hotwiring his car and grimacing. "I can't believe this. I just fixed her up, too." Dean says as the car starts, So the bridge, is that, uh, is that all you got?

"The bridge was four and a half minutes from their farm." Sam Says

"How Do You Know?" Dean Asks

"I counted." Sam Says As He starts tracing a path on the map in his lap. They took a left out of the farm, then turned right onto a dirt road, followed that for two minutes slightly up a hill, then took another quick right and we hit the bridge.

"You're good. You're a monster pain in the ass, but you're good." Dean Says

VAMPIRE NEST

Lenore is packing things into boxes, Eli comes in and sets a box on the table. "In the truck, thank you" Lenore Says

"We can't leave like this. Lenore. Listen to me, we need to stay and fight." Eli Says

"They were my friends too, Eli, my family." Lenore Says

"That's not what I'm talking about. This is self-defense. Kill or be killed. They can't hunt us if they're dead." Eli Says

"Killing those three wouldn't solve anything. There's more where they came from. We're out-numbered. This. This is all we can do. Try and reason --" Lenore Says

"You can't reason with these people. They're going to kill us all anyway. We should at least take a few of them with us." Eli Says

"I'm not giving up hope. If we can change, they can change. Now go into town and gather the others. We leave before sunrise." Lenore Says

Gordon's red car crosses the bridge and turns up a small road.

Some ways behind, Sam and Dean are in the Impala. Sam sighs, staring at the map. Dean glances at him, then looks back to the road. Sam frowns at Dean.

Lenore comes out of the house with a box, sets it on the flatbed of a truck. She turns and Gordon is there. He grabs her, raises a knife that glistens with blood. He stabs it into her chest; she goes limp.

"Dead man's blood, bitch." Gordon Says

__________________________________
FARMHOUSE

Gordon dips the knife into a jar of blood. Lenore is tied to a chair nearby, covered in cuts, pale and sickly. He circles around her, slices the bloody knife across her chest. She groans. Sam and Dean arrive.

"Sam, Dean. Come on in." Gordon Says

"Hey, Gordon What's going on?" Dean Asks

"Just poisoning Lenore here with some dead man's blood. She's going to tell us where all her little friends are, aren't you? Wanna help?" Gordon Says

"Look, man --" Dean Says

"Grab a knife. I was just about to start in on the fingers." Gordon Says as he drags the knife across her arm; veins trace away from the cut.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey, let's all just chill out, huh?" Dean Says

"I'm completely chill." Gordon Says

"Gordon, put the knife down."Sam says as he steps towards Gordon but Dean stops him with a hand on his chest.

"Sounds like it's Sam here needs to chill." Gordon Says

"Just step away from her, all right?" Sam Says

"You're right. I'm wasting my time here. This bitch will never talk. Might as well put her out of her misery. He pulls out a larger knife,I just sharpened it, so it's completely humane." Gordon Says as He turns towards LENORE; SAM steps to block him.

"Gordon, I'm letting her go." Sam Says as Gordon points the knife at Sam's chest, stopping him.

"You're not doing a damn thing." Gordon Says

"Hey, hey, hey, Gordon, let's talk about this." Dean Says

"What's there to talk about? It's like I said, Dean. No shades of gray." Gordon Says

"Yeah. I hear ya. And I know how you feel." Dean Says

"Do you?" Gordon Asks

"That vampire that killed your sister deserved to die, but this one..." Dean Says

" He laughs,Killed my sister? That filthy fang didn't kill my sister. It turned her. It made her one of them. So I hunted her down, and I killed her myself." Gordon Says

"You did what?" Dean Says

"It wasn't my sister anymore, it wasn't human. I didn't blink. And neither would you." Gordon Says

"So you knew all along, then? You knew about the vampires, you knew they weren't killing anyone. You knew about the cattle. And you just didn't care." Sam Says

"Care about what? A nest of vampires suddenly acting nice? Taking a little time out from sucking innocent people? And we're supposed to buy that? Trust me. Doesn't change what they are. And I can prove it." Gordon Says as he grabs Sam's arm, slices the knife across it, then lays the knife against his throat, dragging him towards Lenore. Dean pulls his gun.

"Let him go. Now!" Dean Says

"Relax. If I wanted to kill him he'd already be on the floor. Just making a little point." Gordon Says as he holds the cut on Sam's arm over Lenore, so the blood drips on her face. She hisses, fangs extending.

"Hey!" Dean Says

"You think she's so different? Still want to save her? Look at her. They're all the same. Evil, bloodthirsty." Gordon Says , Lenore controls herself, retracting her fangs, and turns her face away.

"No. No." Lenore Says

"You hear her, Gordon?" Sam Says

"No! No!" Lenore , Sam pushes the knife away from his throat, and pushes Gordon away.

"We're done here." Sam Says

"Sam, get her out of here." Dean Says

"Yeah" Sam says as he picks Lenore up in his arms, Gordon takes a step towards him, but Dean still has the gun trained on him.

"Uh-uh. Uh-uh!, Gordon, I think you and I've got some things to talk about." Dean Says

"Get out of my way." Gordon Says

"Sorry" Dean Says

"Your not serious." Gordon Says

"I'm having a hard time believing it too, but I know what I saw. If you want those vampires, you gotta go through me." Dean Says, then Gordon nods, considering. He looks at his knife, then jams it into the table

"Fine" Gordon Says, Dean looks at the knife, looks at his gun. He pulls the clip out of the gun and sets it aside. Gordon punches him; they start fighting. Gordon grabs the knife again; Dean groans. They are well matched.

"What are you doing, man? You doing this for a fang? Come on, Dean, we're on the same side here." Gordon Says

"I don't think so, you sadistic bastard." Dean Says as Gordon throws Dean across the room.

"You're not like your brother. You're a killer. Like me." Gordon Says, Dean kicks Gordon down, hauls him up against the wall, and elbows him in the face, knocking him out. Pinning him under his elbow, he slams Gordon head into another wall. Dean sets him in a chair and ties him up.

"You know, I might be like you, and I might not. But you're the one tied up right now." Dean Says

Later On

Sam returns to find Gordon tied to the chair, Dean pacing. Gordon and Dean watch each other.

"Did I miss anything?" Sam Says

"Nah, not much. Lenore get out okay?" Dean Asks

"Yeah. All of 'em did." Sam Says

"Then I guess our work here is done. How you doin', Gordy? Gotta tinkle yet?,Gordon looks at him. All right. Well, get comfy. We'll call someone in two or three days, have them come out, untie you." Dean Says , He jams GORDON'S knife into a table behind him.

"Ready to go, Dean?" Sam Asks

"Not yet. I guess this is goodbye. Well, it's been real.
He hits Gordon, knocking him in his chair to the floor. Sam clears his throat. Okay. I'm good now. We can go." Dean Says

OUTSIDE THE FARMHOUSE

As they exit the farmhouse, both wince at their recent injuries - Sam's left arm is wrapped in a bandage. Dean stops, setting himself on his feet like a boxer.

"Sam? Clock me one." Dean Says

"What?" Sam Says

"Come on. I won't even hit you back. Let's go." Dean Says

"No." Sam Says

"Let's go, you get a freebie. Hit me, come on." Dean Says

"You look like you just went twelve rounds with a block of cement, Dean. I'll take a raincheck." Sam Says

"I wish we never took this job. It's jacked everything up." Dean Says

"What do you mean?" Sam Says

"Think about all the hunts we went on, Sammy, our whole lives." Dean Says

"Okay." Sam Says

"What if we killed things that didn't deserve killing? You know? I mean, the way Dad raised us..." Dean Says

"Dean, after what happened to Mom, Dad did the best he could." Sam Says

"I know he did. But the man wasn't perfect. And the way he raised us, to hate those things; and man, I hate 'em. I do. When I killed that vampire at the mill I didn't even think about it; hell, I even enjoyed it." Dean Says

"You didn't kill Lenore." Sam Says

"No, but every instinct told me to. I was gonna kill her. I was gonna kill 'em all." Dean Says

"Yeah, Dean, but you didn't. And that's what matters." Sam Says

"Yeah. Well, 'cause you're a pain in my ass." Dean Says

"Guess I might have to stick around to be a pain in the ass, then." Sam Says

"Thanks." Dean Says

"Don't mention it." Sam Says as he gets in the passenger's side; Dean stares off into the distance for a moment before climbing in and driving away.
