MOTEL ROOM

♪ Heat of the moment ♪

Sam and Aliana's eyes snapped open and they sat up in bed.

Caroline glanced over as they woke up.

Charlotte yawned and smiled as she waved.

♪ Telling you what your heart is ♪

"Rise and shine, Sammy, Ali!" Dean called as he sat on the other bed and tied his shoes. "Hey, Lina. Hey, Charlotte."

Sam and Aliana frowned. "Dude. Asia?"

"Come on, you two love this song and you know it," Dean replied.

"Yeah, and if I ever hear it again, I'm gonna kill myself," Sam shot back.

Dean turned up the volume. "What? Sorry, couldn't hear you."

♪ It was the heat of the moment ♪

Dean started bopping along and Sam shook his head while Aliana sighed. Caroline and Charlotte, who felt the vibrations, danced along with the song.

♪ Heat of the moment. Heat of the moment. Showed in your eyes ♪

In the bathroom, Dean gargled loudly.

"Whenever you're ready, Dean," Sam said.

Dean pulled out a black bra. "This yours? Ali, Lina, is this yours?"

Caroline and Aliana shook their heads and rolled their eyes while Sam glared.

Dean laughed, rummaged in the bag and pulled out a gun. "Bingo."

He went past Sam, Aliana and Caroline, holding Charlotte's hand, to the door as Dean asked, "Now who's ready for some breakfast?"

DINER

The door chimed as Sam, Dean, Caroline, Charlotte and Aliana entered.

The cashier gave Mr. Pickett some change. "Drive safely now, Mr. Pickett."

"Yeah, yeah," Mr. Pickett replied.

The cook in the background called, "Order up."

Sam, Dean, Aliana and Caroline found a booth.

At the counter, a waitress said, "Can't stay unless you order something, Cal. You know the rules."

Cal passed her some change. "Some coffee."

Dean noticed a poster on the wall. "Hey. Tuesday. Pig-in-a-poke."

"You even know what that is?" Sam asked.

A waitress, Doris, walked up to their booth. "You boys and girls ready?"

"Yes," Dean replied. "I'll have the special, side of bacon and a coffee."

"Couple waffles and a coffee," Caroline told Doris. "And pancakes and orange juice for the little girl."

Angie browsed the menu before saying, "I'll have French toast, eggs and coffee."

"Make it four coffees and a short stack," Sam said.

"You got it," Doris answered.

Dean looked at his brother. "I'm telling you, Sam, Ali, Lina, this job's small fry. We should be spending our time hunting down Bela."

"Okay, sure, let's get right on that - where is she again?" Sam retorted.

"Shut up."

"Look, believe me, I want to find her as bad as you three do. In the meantime, we have this." He pulled out some papers.
