Supernatural Season Two

Hunted

The Impala is parked under a tree, and Sam, Sarah and Dean re drinking beer by the fence around a small lake and Dean says "Before Dad died he, he told me something — something about you." Sam says "What? Dean, what did he tell you?" Dean says "He said that he wanted me to watch out for you, to take care of you." Sam says "He told you that a million times." Dean says "No, this time was different. He said that I had to save you." Sam says "Save me from what?" Dean says "He just said that I had to save you, that nothing else mattered; and that if I couldn't, I'd . . ." Sam says "You'd what, Dean?" Dean says "That I'd have to kill you. He said that I might have to kill you, Sammy." Sam and Sarah looks at Dean and then Sam says "Kill me? What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Dean says "I don't know." Sam says "I mean, he must have had some kind of reason for saying it, right? Did he know the demon's plans for me? Am I supposed to go Darkside or something? What else did he say, Dean?" 

Dean says "Nothing, that's it, I swear." Sam says "How could you not have told me this?" Dean says "Because it was Dad, and he begged me not to." Sam says "Who cares?! Take some responsibility for yourself, Dean! You had no right to keep this from me!" Dean says "You think I wanted this? Huh? I wish to God he'd never opened his mouth. Then I wouldn't have to walk around with this screaming in my head all day." 

Sam turns and takes a few steps away, fuming and says "We've just got to figure out what's going on, then, what the hell all this means." Dean says "We do? I've been thinking about this, I think we should just lay low. You know? At least for a while. It'd be safer. And that way I can make sure —" Sam says "What? That I don't turn evil? That I don't turn into some kind of killer?" Sarah says "Dean didn't say that." Sam says "Jeez, if you're not careful you will have to waste me one day, Dean." Dean says "I never said that! Damnit, Sam, this whole thing is spinning out of control. All right? You're immune to some weirdo demon virus, and I don't even know what the hell anymore. And you're pissed at me, I get it. That's fine, I deserve it. But we lay low until we figure out our next move, okay?"Sam says "Forget it." Dean says "Sam, please, man. Hey, please. Just give me some time. Give me some time to think, okay? I'm begging you here, please. Please." Sam nods reluctantly and Sarah doesn't know what to do or say so she stays quiet.

Velvet inn motel night time, Sam leaves a motel room alone, a bag over his shoulder. He walks quietly past the Impala to a small black car; he opens the door with a coat hanger, looks around, and gets in and he drives away, Sam  is standing outside a dark house, holding a piece of motel stationery from The Blue Rose Motel, with an address written on it. He approaches the house cautiously. He picks the lock and enters; the house is dark. As he passes through the doorway he trips a wire at floor level, which triggers a grenade. It explodes; he screams. A close shot of his smoking boots dissolves into a flash of light, then into, a bedroom in a bed Ava a young woman wakes up from the vision/nightmare, gasping. The Man behind her stirs and he says "Hey Honey?" Ava says "Oh." Man asks "You okay?" Ava says "No, I just had another nightmare. It's fine, it's nothing. Just go back to sleep." The Man says "You sure?" Ava says "Yeah." She lies down again, still panting.

Sam enters the roadhouse, and heads turn Ellen is behind the bar, and looks up as he approaches. She smiles knowingly and says "Sam." Sam replies with "Hey, Ellen." Grinning sheepishly he says "You don't seem that surprised to see me." Ellen says "Well, your brother and sarah's  been calling, worried sick, looking for you." Sam says "Yeah. Figured they might." Ellen says "What's going on between you three?" Sam says "So, um, how's Jo?" Ellen nodding and she says "Well, I don't really know." Sam asks "What do you mean?" Ellen says "Well, I haven't seen her in weeks. She sends a postcard now and again." Sam asks "Well, what happened?" Ellen says "Well, after she worked that job with you three  she decided she wanted to keep on hunting. I said "not under my roof", and she said "fine". Sam says "So I'm probably the last person you want to see right now." Ellen throaty chuckle says "Oh, don't get me wrong. I wish I could blame the hell out of you three,  It'd be easier truth  is, it's not your fault Sam  None of it is. I want you to know that I forgave your daddy a long time ago for what happened to my Bill and  I just don't think he ever forgave himself." Ellen says "Um, so, why did you come here, sweetie?" Sam says "I need help."
