Sam and Miranda are sitting in a diner and Sam is on his laptop while on the phone with Bobby.

"What do you mean you don't think it will work, Bobby? It's a demon dispelling ritual." Sam says. Dean knocks on the window next to them and waves a newspaper around. "Well, maybe we got the translation wrong. Look, we can't just let Dean fry in Hell while we--" He stops as Bobby starts talking. "Well, there's got to be something that w-- oh, uh, yeah, no, I-I gotta go. Uh... okay. Never mind." Sam hangs up as Dean walks over.

"Hey. Who was that?" Dean asks.

"Uh, I was just ordering pizza." Sam says. Miranda internally winces.

"Dude, you do realize that you're in a restaurant." Dean says.

"She-- she's pregnant. She craves things." Sam throws his girlfriend under the bus, purposefully ignoring the stern look she gives him.

"Right. Sure, whatever." Dean says, sitting across from them. "So, I think I got something."

"Yeah?" Sam asks.

"Cicero, Indiana. Falls on his own power saw." Dean says.

"And? What, that's it? One power saw?" Sam asks.

"Well... yeah." Dean says.

"And you think that this is a case?" Sam asks.

"Well, I don't know. Could be." Dean says.

"I don't know, Dean. I-I--"

"All right, there's something better... better in Cicero than just a case."

"And that is?"

"Lisa Braeden."

"Should I even ask?"

"Please don't." Miranda whiens.

"Remember that road trip I took, uh... gosh, about eight years ago now? You were in Orlando with dad wrapping up that banshee thing." Dean says.

"Yeah. Yeah, the five states, five day--"

"Yeah." Dean laughs. "Well, kind of. Although I spent most of my time in Lisa Braeden's loft."

"So let me get this straight. You want-- you want to drive all the way to Cicero just to hook up with some random chick?" Sam asks.

"She was a yoga teacher. It was the bendiest weekend of my life. Come on. Have a heart, huh? It's my dying wish." Dean says.

"Yeah, well, how many dying wishes are you gonna get?" Sam asks.

"As many as I can squeeze out." Dean says making Miranad roll her eyes. "Come on. Smile, Sam! God knows I'm gonna be smiling after 24 hours with Gumby girl." He chuckles. "Gumby girl." He frowns. "Does that make me Pokey?"

Sam and Miranda are sitting across from each other in a diner and Sam is on his laptop while Miranda is reading the newspaper about the guy's death.

"Hello, Sam." They turn to see a blonde woman. "Miranda."

"Who the fuck are you?" Miranda questions.

"You've been following me since Lincoln." Sam says.

"She's been doing what now?" Miranda asks.

"You mind?" The blonde asks, motioning for Miranda to scoot over. "Move."

"I do mind and I'm not moving. Who the fuck are you?" Miranda asks. The blonde only rolls her eyes and moves around, sitting next to Sam. "Wh--"

"Not much gets by you, huh?" Ruby remarks, shutting Sam's laptop. She takes one of his fries. "Mm. These are amazing. It's like deep fried crack. Try some."
