Dean stopped at the study's entrance, frowning. Sam was parked behind his laptop—he hadn't budged from there since they'd gotten home after seeing Bobby off. Or up.
Dean studied Sam as he searched for clues to Kevin's whereabouts with single-minded determination. The same way he didn't search for me, after Dick exploded. He pitched the moist cloth in his hand towards the kitchen, rethinking his original plan.
