- Hey. You Dean? - Hey, Garth.

- Garth. - Oh, Marmaduke. You're crazy.

He grows on you.

- What'd I miss? - You're right. He has grown on me.

The nicest thing anyone's ever said to me.

- I don't hunt anymore. - You quit?

- Yeah. - What could possibly...

...make you stop just like that? Was there a girl?

Yeah. Amelia.

- What about you? - What about me?

I'm Benny.

I can see you two have a lot to talk about.

Now, what do you think the year is on that?

- So it's only the turn of the century. - Turn of the century, you'll have...

...at the bottom of that. - Yeah, there's very little...

Hey, hon, just in time.

Grab me a cold one, would you?

Why don't you have Sara Alcott get it for you?

What?

Aah! Oh, my God!

Mary, help.

Get the... Mary, what are you doing? Mary, what are you doing?

Mary. Mary, help me.

Mary.

Mary!

No!

Heads up.

I caught wind of a case on this police scanner.

Sounds like our kind of thing.

I wasn't even gone 10 minutes.

Okay. That matters why?

How about because you haven't said a word to me since Prentiss Island?

Now what? You want me to shut up and ride shotgun...

...and act like nothing happened?

You wanna talk about Benny?

- Fine, let's talk. - Okay.

How about he's a vampire?

He's also the reason I'm topside, not roasting in purgatory. Anything else?

Don't pretend I don't get it. You had to do what you had to do.

I highly doubt you get anything about purgatory.

But you're out now. And Benny's still breathing.

Why?

He's my friend, Sam.

And what about my friend, Amy, she was what?

You sure as hell didn't have a problem ganking her.

Well, I guess people change, don%they?

We let that werewolf Kate go, didn't we?

She was different. You think Benny's different?

Heh. He tell you he's not drinking live blood or something?

And you believe him. Wow.

Okay. No, you're right.

People do change.

Yeah. I got a vampire buddy and you turn your phone off for a year.

Don't turn this on me.

Look. Benny slips up and some other hunter turns his lights out, so be it.

But it's not gonna be you, right?

You coming or not?

So guy's old lady comes home while he's working underneath his ride...

...puts pedal to the metal, takes half his head off.

- And that's it? - Yeah, in a nutshell.

She says she blacked out, doesn't remember a damn thing.

- Well, that sounds like insanity. - Maybe.

So how's that make this our kind of thing?

Because, Sam, Kevin's in the wind, okay?

You're sulking around like a eunuch in a whorehouse...

...and I can't help but ask myself: When is decapitation not my thing?

Whoa, whoa.

- FBI? - Yeah.

Happened to be in the neighborhood.

- First a Texas Ranger, now you guys. - Texas Ranger?

Yes, sir. Right over there.

You gotta be kidding me.

Hey, Chuck Norris.

- Sam? Dean? - Shh.

Forgot he was a hugger.

- Come here. - All right. Okay.

Okay. We're still working here.

You guys have no idea how much I missed you.

- Excuse us, would you? - Yeah, we'll be right back.

A Texas Ranger, Garth? Seriously? We're in Missouri.

What? Come on.

I look like a funeral director in one of those.

Wow. I heard some chatter you two were back in the batter's box...

...but I didn't believe it till now.

Oh, uh, one sec.

Yo, Earl, what you got?

A Revenant.

Okay, uh, you'll need a casket and some silver spikes.

Oh, and don't get bit.

No, it won't turn you, ha, but it will hurt like hell.

So once you got all that, nail that sucker in...

...bury him and throw away the key. Okay?

All right, hasta.

What are you doing?

My job, hombre.

- Your job? - Yeah.

And since when is you giving advice your job?

Hold up.

- Are you the new Bobby? - You shut your mouth.

- Yes. - You shut your mouth.

What?

Bobby was gone, you two were MIA.

It was a weird time.

Somebody had to step in and take up the slack.

All right. Let's just get back to work and we'll talk about this later, all right?

Did Garth just tell us what to do?

Uh, Scott Lew, these gentlemen here are with the FBI.

Mr. Lew's parents were the individuals involved in this unfortunate situation.

- Sorry for your loss. - Just a few questions, Mr. Lew.

By any chance, were your parents having marital problems?

- No. No more than anyone else. - Well, what about your mother's health?

Any chance this was a seizure, a stroke, anything that might explain this?

I don't think so.

They're checking her out at the hospital right now.

What about stranger behavior?

Stranger? How?

Hearing voices, seeing things. Your mother mention anything like that?

My parents were married for 30 years. High school sweethearts.

There's no good explanation for why this happened...

...no matter where you wanna look.

Okay. Well, thank you, Scott.

We'll be in touch.

No EMF. No traces of sulfur anywhere.

Like I thought, bust.

Hold on there, Sam, there's a lot of things to factor in here.

Uh, happened last night, readings could be cold by now.

- Good point. - And even if there was any sulfur...

...Barney Fife and crew probably contaminated the crime scene...

- ...any evidence that was here with it. - Wow, he's on a roll.

Yeah, that's one word for it.

Uh, guys, I think I found something.

Is that gum or is that ectoplasm?

Ectoplasm is usually black, right?

Mm. Definitely ectoplasm.

So, what are we thinking? Some kind of ghost, right?

- Ranger McCrae. - One of those things rings Hammer...

- ...I'm throwing down. - Great.

Okay.

Okay.

Thanks, doc. Asked the coroner to drop me a line...

...in case the autopsy turned up anything unusual.

And guess what.

Dead guy had the word "Alcott" carved into his chest.

- With what? - Coroner's best guess:

His wife Mary's fingernails.

Mrs. Lew, can you tell us what happened?

I was at the store getting groceries...

...and the next thing I know my son Scott finds me in the driveway.

And Chester was...

Do you remember anything at all about what happened, um...

...with Chester dying?

Not really.

Bits and pieces, I guess.

Such as?

I remember his screams.

The smell of burnt rubber and...

I remember feeling so angry.

Just uncontrollable rage. Like, I wasn't myself.

And after it was over, all that anger was just gone.

Uh, Ma'am, does the word "Alcott" mean anything to you?

What does she have to do with anything?

It's a she?

My husband Chester and I were going steady in high school...

...for years already when we had a big fight.

- What about? - Something stupid, I'm sure.

It was around prom so he took Sara Alcott as his date instead of me.

So this Sara Alcott was a rival for your husband's affections?

Sara had one night with him.

Whereas I was with Chester for 37 years.

Of course, right. Sure.

Just one more question.

Um, ahem...

ls Miss Alcott still alive?

As far as I know, yes.

Thank you very much, Mrs. Lew.

So let me get this straight. This poor guy goes to prom with some girl...

...over 30 years ago, and because of that he's now a pancake?

If this is a ghost, maybe it's possession.

What? You heard her, Alcott's alive.

Well, we're definitely gonna wanna talk to her.

Yeah, sounds like a plan.

Did we eat yet?

Oh, yeah.

- All right. - There you go.

Mm. Thanks.

- Keep them coming. - All right.

So, Dean, give me the skinny. Where were you this past year?

Why don't we save what I did on my summer vacation for another time?

Ah, come on.

All right.

I was in purgatory.

Like, uh, "purgatory" purgatory?

No. The one in Miami.

Man, that's balls.

That's not how you say balls.

So how'd you get out?

What's up with all the hillbilly hankies?

These people know Civil War is over, right?

That's a touchy subject around these parts.

See, Missouri was a border state.

So half the men were Confederate, the other half were the Union.

How do you know all this?

I went to college.

- You went to college? - Yeah.

College, then on to dental school.

Wait. You were a dentist?

Yeah, just for like a hot minute.

Where do you think I got my first case?

Let me guess.

Tooth fairy.

Yeah.

I mean, I felt terrible when I ganked that SOB.

You killed the tooth fairy?

Yeah, man.

I mean, not my proudest moment, but, heh, it happened.

Man, this is good.

Hey, hon. Just grabbing some joe on the way to the hospital.

Gonna bring Mom her stuff.

Oh, crap, Jeff's here.

Don't worry, I'll be fine.

Okay.

Love you.

Hey, Scott, how's...?

Look, I heard about what happened with your folks.

I'm really sorry. If there's anything, I mean anything, that I can do...

...just ask, man, please.

How about getting me my money back, Jeff?

No, wait!

So first the Mom goes Natural Born Killer, and now the son?

I mean, what do we got? A ghost with an Oedipus complex?

I don't know what that means.

Check that out.

"Sussex." What is that? Another name?

I don't know. Hey. What'd the cops say?

Oh, come on.

Not much. Scott insisted he wasn't in control of himself...

...says all he remembers is a red-hot rage.

So, what is this? Some kind of family curse?

Is that Bobby's hat?

Oh, yeah. Sure is.

We worked a Rugaru case together a few years back.

He left it in my car. So I kept it as a memento.

- What are you doing? - It's not how you wear it.

Gentlemen, surveillance is up, but something is all screwy with it.

Must be the camera.

Yeah. Thank you there, deputy.

- You see the head? - Yeah.

- You ever seen anything like that before? - Like that? No way.

- So? - So...

So I'm thinking we need to talk to Sara Alcott.

I found her. Although these days she goes by Sara Brown.

I'll check her out, and you two see what you can find out about Sussex.

- Word. - Awesome.

Now, I know you didn't come all this way for my sweet tea, agent.

Ha. No.

Actually, I'm here about Chester Lew.

Oh, yes.

- So sad. - It is.

Is it true you and Chester dated a ways back?

Well, that is an odd question for the FBI, isn't it?

You wouldn't believe the questions I've had to ask people.

Yeah, ha, ha.

Well, ahem, yes.

Yes. Me and that old tomcat Chester, we went to prom together.

That's about it.

And that's all?

Well, I wasn't exactly a good girl, if that's what you mean.

Then after that, I thought that Chester and I...

...were gonna be hot and heavy. But it just wasn't meant to be.

And a week later he eloped with Mary.

Did you speak much to Mary or Chester again after that?

Well, I'd see them about. You know, picnics and such.

But Mary kept Chester on a pretty short leash.

Honestly, I'd moved on, but it seems she never did.

And why do you think that is?

Well, I guess in her mind, I was a reminder of Chester's betrayal.

Huh.

So if that's all...

Yes. Thank you very much for your help.

It's been a long time since I let myself go like that.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

You asked me if I lost someone.

I did.

My husband.

He died in Afghanistan eight months ago.

That must have been...

I can't imagine.

Yeah.

We were together forever.

Or at least it seemed that way.

And then one day Don just enlists.

Didn't ask me.

Just said something about wanting to do the right thing.

The next thing I know he's off overseas and I'm all alone.

I got a couple letters, some phone calls...

...and then the knock at the door.

Just like that.

And everywhere I looked, all I could see was judgment and pity...

...and just this constant reminder of Don everywhere.

So I moved here...

...and became even more of a hot mess than I already was.

And you hit a dog.

Easy there, flyweight.

Last time you drank a beer, I had to pick you up off the floor.

You're such an idjit.

"Idjit's" supposed to be used angrily.

Okay? Not happy.

If you're gonna butcher it, don't say it at all.

Whoa, then. Okay.

Look, none of my business...

...but this have anything to do with you and Sam?

Yeah, you had it right. It's none of your business.

Okay. Just seems that you guys are a little tense around each other.

Ahem. We're fine.

Can we get back to work?

- Yeah. - Okay.

All right.

Just letting you know that I'm here for you, for anything.

I know sometimes Bobby, he would...

You're not Bobby.

Okay?

You're never gonna be Bobby.

So stop.

Bobby belonged to all of us, Dean, not just you and Sam.

I'm just taking what he showed me and trying do something with it. That's all.

See if you can find something...

...in that bourbon-drenched book of his so we can get the hell out of Dixie.

Yeah. I'm on it.

Hey.

Sussex is not a who, it's a what.

A business that went belly up about a year ago. Look.

- So the guy that Scott brained? - Mm-hm.

His old business partner.

Ran the company into the ground.

So Scott had a beef with Jeff.

Looks like.

Hey, you're on speaker.

Sara Alcott's clean. If you look past the fact...

...that she and Chester knocked boots on prom night.

Okay, so Mary has a grudge against Sara...

...and Scott has a grudge against Jeff.

Besides this making my head hurt, how does this add up to a ghost?

Guys. Bobby has it right here.

Green goo equals a Spectre.

- Which equals ghost, right? - Yeah, kind of.

A Spectre is an avenging ghost.

It possesses you and finds out whatever betrayals you're feeling...

...forces you to act on them.

Bobby say anything in there about how we hunt these things?

The last Spectre he encountered rose shortly...

...after someone desecrated a nearby grave.

Which...

There was a grave desecrated locally three days ago.

Says here...

Oh.

This could get awkward.

What?

- The Unknown Soldier? You kidding me? - Mary Lew steamrolled her husband...

...the day after this place was vandalized. Do the math.

The Unknown Soldier was buried in Arlington.

This is the Confederate Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

See, the idea was they took a faceless, nameless soldier they couldn't identify...

...and buried him here to commemorate all the soldiers who died.

- What, did you learn that in college? - No. Civil War reenactments.

Once a year, every year.

Don't hate.

Okay. What about the guard?

Oh, he's ceremonial. Gone by dusk.

- So then we do this tonight? - Yeah.

Burn a Confederate soldier's bones in a town full of rednecks? Sure.

Place doesn't look disturbed to me.

What's the police report say?

They think it was just kids messing around.

They found some beer cans, some graffiti.

Casket was open when they got here, but they closed that back up.

Not before Casper had a chance to make a run for it.

What, if they never touched this, none of this would be happening?

Yeah, according to Bobby.

All right, well, let's get this party started.

Sammy, you wanna give me a hand?

And go.

Whoa.

Check out this hardware. Do you guys know how much this is worth?

Yeah, but why open it up if you're not gonna take anything?

I don't know.

Maybe the cops showed up and they had to split fast.

- Sure this'll work, even on a Spectre? - It's a ghost, isn't it?

Burn its bones, ghost disappears.

- All right. - All right, all right.

I feel like we should say something, all right? Don't you?

Just a little...

Sure.

We won.

Write that up for me, would you, Doug?

Help!

Please!

Hey, you okay?

Need my asthma inhaler from evidence.

Please.

Why don't you write your own report, sheriff?

All right, we're set.

- Let's go. - Yeah.

Ten bones says Deputy Doug had an ax to grind with his boss.

How can you be so sure?

- What the hell? - Maybe we torched the wrong redneck.

Or maybe not. Maybe an object was removed from the grave.

Something the Spectre's attaching itself to.

Like Bobby's flask?

I don't know. You saw what I saw. Those kids didn't take anything.

- Or they did. - And the Spectre hitched a ride with it.

And whoever has the object gets possessed.

Okay. So who's got the object?

And, more importantly, who do they got a grudge against?

All right. We need you to focus, deputy.

Other lives depend on it.

Tell me what happened after you shot the sheriff.

I was on the ground.

I think Karl tackled me, and I asked him what happened.

And?

He didn't answer me.

He just took my gun and walked away.

Did he say where he was going?

I guess I must have hurt him too. He said he was going to the hospital.

You two find out what you can about the Unknown Soldier, I got the hospital.

Hey, Sam. If you ever need to talk, I just wanna let you know that I'm here.

About anything. You know, life, uh, Dean, you.

I'm okay, thanks.

It seems like you and Dean are talking, but nobody's listening to each other.

I had this cousin once, well, he's gone now...

...but his name's Frank.

Frank and I...

Hey.

Hey. Just lock up when you leave.

I'm late.

Wait. What?

I just think it's better if neither of us get the wrong idea here.

- Okay. - I know I said a lot of things last night...

...and I know I can't ask you to forget them, but just do.

Why?

Because I don't need your pity.

I don't need you looking at me the way they all... Like that.

Wait.

You think this is pity?

Amelia. I'm glad you told me about Don.

It helps me understand.

How messed up I am? You think I don't know that?

- Don't feel sorry for me, Sam. - I didn't mean it like that.

Yeah, well, like I said, I'm late. So...

', you coming?

You do know there is a good reason he's called the Unknown Soldier, right?

We were hoping maybe a theory or two had been floated around over the years.

Something local, maybe?

There is one.

Hey, ump-

You remember me? I stole second?

Karl? What the hell are you doing? Why are you doing...?

Why am I gonna make mustard from your brain stem? I don't know.

Why did you call me out, ump?

I'm sorry.

Looks like you're shooting blanks.

Hey, that tickled.

Corporal Collins of the Union shot and killed his brother, Vance...

...who fought for the Confederacy. Local boys.

So two brothers fought on opposite sides of the Civil War?

Legend has it that Vance swore vengeance on his brother...

...with his dying breath.

Years later, consumed by guilt, the corporal dug his brother up...

...where he'd buried him on the battlefield, brought him home.

Are you suggesting this Vance guy is the Unknown Soldier?

That's one theory, anyway.

What's that?

Karl, listen. I know the Spectre's turning the temperature up in there.

So just tell me what the object is and we'll send this joker home.

I don't think so.

There's unfinished business, thanks to you.

Oh, the Spectre likes you.

Yeah? Why don't you tell him to come on out here?

We'll make promise bracelets.

Most of the soldiers were poor farmers.

So the families would give them a penny on a string.

It was for good luck.

And in case they ever got lost, they always had a penny for food or drink.

A penny.

Here. Have a taste.

It's me. Do what you gotta.

Dean. Hey. There was a string on the floor of the tomb.

It used to hold an old penny. That's the object.

We're coming right now.

Dean? What the hell, man?

We went to the hospital, you... You're not answering your phone.

You should have looked for me when I was in purgatory.

Come on, Dean. I know it's not you in there pulling the strings.

Shut up.

Don't

You never even wanted this life.

Always blamed me for pulling you back into it.

That's not true.

Really? Everything you've ever done since you climbed into my ride...

...has been to deceive me.

What do you want me to say?

That I've made mistakes?

I've made mistakes, Dean.

That's not Dean, Sam.

Shut up!

Mistakes?

Well, let's go through some of Sammy's greatest hits.

Drinking demon blood, check.

Being in cahoots with Ruby.

Not telling me that you lost your soul.

Or how about running around with Samuel for a whole year...

...letting me think you were dead while you were doing all kinds of crazy.

Those aren't mistakes, Sam, those are choices.

All right, you said it. We've both played a little fast and loose.

Yeah, I might've lied, but I never once betrayed you.

I never once left you to die.

And for what? A girl?

You left me to die for a girl?

Oh.

- Garth, don't. - No. He won't kill me.

His beef isn't with me. You're not gonna shoot me. Are you, Dean?

Move.

Come on, Dean.

You do not wanna kill your brother.

You've been protecting him your whole life. Don't stop now.

He left me to rot in purgatory.

All right, maybe he did. I don't know, I wasn't there.

- I'm sure he had his reasons. - Like you had your reasons.

For Benny.

- Who? - Benny's been more of a brother to me...

...this past year than you've ever been.

That's right.

Cass let me down, you let me down.

The only person that hasn't let me down is Benny.

I know you're angry...

...but, man, you gotta fight this thing. Do not do this.

Just let it go.

Come on, Dean.

Goodbye, Sam.

Ow! God.

Garth, don't!

It's cool.

It's all good. I'm cool.

It took me forever to melt that penny but it's finally gone.

How come it didn't jack you like everyone else?

I can understand why it didn't affect the kid who took it.

He's young and innocent.

Everyone, at some point, feels they've been screwed.

Not me, man. I let all that stuff go with the help of my yogi...

...my "Sega Genesis."

And you should too.

You can't change the past, amigo.

Now, there's something I wanna say to you.

Stop being a idjit!

With Bobby dead, you and Sam are all each other has.

And that's not so bad, man.

Now, you know what's coming next, right?

- Come on. - Yeah.

Come on.

Yeah. Okay.

Hey, ah...

Keep on trucking, Garth.

Thanks.

Gotta go.

Yo, Lamar. What do we got?

Wendigo?

You got a flare gun?

No?

What about a flamethrower?

Then you better get some sneakers because you're gonna have to run.

All right.

Balls!

Sam. I can't...

I don't pity you. Okay?

I don't.

You and I, we're a lot of things, but we're not to be pitied.

Look, I lost my brother, Dean, a few months ago.

It felt like my world imploded and came raining down on me...

...and I ran.

Just like you.

Is that supposed to be a pep talk?

Yeah. I... Sort of.

Because, see, now I pity you.

Oh, look, I mean, that wasn't really my point.

Yeah, well, bell's rung on that one, so...

So, uh...

So, what now?

I don't know. You wanna talk about it?

Last night?

No, Dean, you pervert.

Yeah. Yeah, I'd like that.

Do you wanna talk about Don?

Hey. I'd like that too.

Sammy.

For the record?

The girl?

Her name is Amelia.

Amelia Richardson.

She and I had a place together in Kermit, Texas.

I don't even remember what I said, but...

But what? You didn't mean it?

Please. You and I know you didn't need that penny to say those things.

- Come on, Sam. - Own up to your crap, Dean.

I told you from the jump where I was coming from.

Why I didn't look for you. But you?

You had secrets. You had Benny.

You got on your high and mighty and been kicking me ever since you got back.

But that's over.

So move on or I will.

Okay.

I hear you.

Good.

You know what? Hear this too.

I just might be that hunter that runs into Benny one day and ices him.

Well, I guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it, won't we?

Yeah.

Yeah, you keep saying that.
