EXT. SUN 'N SANDS MOTEL

"Supernatural is filmed before a live studio audience," Dean voiced.

INT. BRIGHT MOTEL ROOM

Dean put some things iin a refrigerator, closed the fridge, and turned. There was applause. There was a sandwich on the table, about a foot tall.

"I'm gonna need a bigger mouth," Dean commented.

A laugh track sounded.

Kennedy looked up from her book. "Yeah you're gonna need a bigger mouth."

The laugh track sounded again.

Sam entered the room and applause sounded.

"Hey there, Sam," Dean greeted. "What's happening?"

"Oh, nothing," Sam replied. "Um. Just the end of the world." The laugh track sounded again. "You're gonna need a bigger mouth." Laugh track. "Hey, uh, have you done your research yet? Zach, how about you?"

A 'busted' expression crossed Dean's face, causing the laugh track.

Zach nodded. "Yup."

"Oh, yeah," Dean said. "All kinds of research. All night."

"Yeah?" Sam questioned. "Hm."

The bathroom door opened. A woman in a bikini came out and the crowd wolf-whistled.

"Oh, Dean..." the woman called, causing Sam and Zach to look at her and Dean to turn, realizing he'd been caught. "We have some more research to do."

Sam folded his arms and Zach frowned as they said, "Dean..."

A laugh track sounded.

"Son of a bitch!" Dean cried.

The laugh track sounded again.

INT. HOUSE

Dean, Sam and Zach looked around an empty house.

"Town to town, two lane roads, family biz, three hunting bros."

Dean, Sam and Zach backed into each other, startled, turned around, and burst out laughing.

"Living a lie just to get by."

Sam opened a cabinet. A white-sheeted 'ghost' waggled at him. He shut the cabinet and stood against the door.

"As long as we're movin' forward."

Dean and Zach were working on the Impala. They wiped their foreheads, smearing grease there. Sam pointed and laughed. Dean and Zach looked at their hands and laughed.

"There's nothing we can't do, together we'll face the day."

EXT. PARK

Dean and Sam rode a tandem bicycle while Zach rode on the handlebars.

"You two and I won't run away."

Dean, Sam and Zach raced on absurdly small motorcycles.

Sam threw a football to Dean, who caught it and bounced it off the ground. Dean threw it to Zach and he jumped in the air and caught it.

"When the demons come out to play."

Dean, Sam and Zach each flopped backwards onto the ground.

INT. BRIGHT MOTEL ROOM

Dean, Sam and Zach each held half-eaten burgers. The clinked together beer bottles and grinned.

"Together we'll face the day!"
