Relieved to have found Jo and Dean, Sam's Bowie knife made short work of the ropes binding the pair together.
"I've never known anyone so ticklish," teased Jo, rubbing the feeling back into her arms.
"And I've never known anyone who wriggled and fidgeted so much," muttered Dean, the tips of his ears turning red.
"Unlike you, I wasn't making myself at home."
Not following the conversation, Sam noticed a nasty-looking knot forming on Dean's forehead. "Hey, you're hurt," he cried, rushing to inspect the head injury.
"Believe me, that's not the swelling he was worried about," smiled Jo, sweetly.
