In Burkittsville, Indiana – One Year Ago. A married couple, HOLLY and VINCE PARKER are leaving a café, which is next to a gas station. With them is an older couple, HARLEY and STACY JORGESON, and their teenage niece, EMILY.
STACY: "And before you leave, one of our apple pies." (She hands HOLLY a box). "On the house."
HOLLY: "Oh, my God, thank you so much!"
STACY: "Youre welcome."
HOLLY: (to VINCE) "Hey, we should get lost more often. I mean, everyone in this town is so nice."
VINCE: "Yeah, whats the catch?"
HARLEY: (after filling the couples car with gas) "Youre all set."
VINCE: "Thanks." (They shake hands. EMILY notices an intricate tattoo on VINCEs arm.)
EMILY: "Thats a cool tattoo."
VINCE: "Thanks."
HARLEY: "So, lets get you back to the interstate."
VINCE: "Yeah, please."
HARLEY: "Take Laskey straight out of town."
STACY: "And then youre gonna turn right on Orchard Road."
VINCE: "Ok. Thank you." (They wave goodbye and the couple drives away.)
They stop at the town orchard. as the couples car breaks down.
HOLLY: "What happened?"
VINCE: "I dont know. Car just died." (He takes his cell phone out of his pocket.) "Cell phone, too."
HOLLY: "How is that possible?" (They get out of the car and look around the orchard.)
VINCE: "Come on, looks like a house over there." (He starts walking away.)
HOLLY: "No, Im not going down there."
VINCE: Holly, we need help, we cant just wait here.
HOLLY: (very reluctantly) "Ok." (She follows VINCE.)
at a another part of the orchard. HOLLY and VINCE stop by a scarecrow raised on a wooden post. They exchange a look and walk closer to it.
VINCE: "Check it out. If I only had a brain"
HOLLY: "We wouldnt be lost."
VINCE: "Thanks. That has got to be the freakiest damn scarecrow Ive ever seen."
HOLLY: "It scares me." (They start walking away, but HOLLY sees the scarecrows head move. She gasps.) " Please, lets just hurry, okay?" (They start walking away. A few seconds later, they hear a rustling in the trees and turn around. No one is there.)
VINCE: "Did you hear that?" (HOLLY nods.) Hello? Whos there?" (Nobody responds. They start running through the orchard. A minute later, HOLLY turns to VINCE, and he is gone. She stops.)
HOLLY: "Vince? Vince?"
She starts running in the opposite direction to try and find VINCE. She trips and falls on the ground. She turns her head and sees VINCEs mutilated body on the ground. She screams and sees the scarecrow towering over her. She continues to scream while the camera pans to the scarecrows now empty post.
In the motel. SAM, DEAN, and Lydia were sleeping. when Deans phone rings but he doesn't wake up.
SAM: "Dean."
DEAN still doesnt wake up. SAM answers the phone. "Hello?"
JOHN: "Sam, is that you?" SAM sits up in bed.
SAM: "Dad? Are you hurt?"
JOHN: "Im fine."
SAM: "Weve been looking for you everywhere. We didnt know where you were, if you were okay."
JOHN: "Sammy, Im all right. What about you, Dean and Lydia?" At the motel, DEAN was waking up.
SAM: "Were fine. Dad, where are you?" DEAN sits up in bed.
JOHN: "Sorry, kiddo, I cant tell you that."
SAM: "What? Why not?"
DEAN: "Is that Dad?"
JOHN: "Look, I know this is hard for you to understand. Youre just gonna have to trust me on this."
SAM: "Youre after it, arent you? The thing that killed Mom."
JOHN: "Yeah. Its a demon, Sam."
SAM: "A demon? You know for sure?"
DEAN: "A demon? Whats he saying?"
JOHN: "I do. Listen, Sammy, I, uhI also know what happened to your girlfriend. Im so sorry. I wouldve done anything to protect you from that."
SAM: "You know where it is?"
JOHN: "Yeah, I think Im finally closing in on it."
SAM: "Let us help."
JOHN: "You cant. You cant be any part of it."
SAM: "Why not?"
DEAN: "Give me the phone."
JOHN: "Listen, Sammy, thats why Im calling. You and your brother, you gotta stop looking for me. Alright, now, I need you to write down these names."
SAM: "Names? What names, Dad—talk to me, tell me whats going on."
JOHN: "Look, we dont have time for this. This is bigger than you think, theyre everywhere. Even us talking right now, its not safe."
SAM: "No. Alright? No way."
DEAN: "Give me the phone."
JOHN: "I have given you an order. Now, you stop following me, and you do your job. You understand me? Now, take down these names." (DEAN grabs the phone from SAM.)
DEAN: "Dad, its me. Where are you? () Yes, sir. () Uh, yeah, I got a pen. What are their names, did you want me to wake up Lydia so she can say hello to you?"
John: "yeah I'd like to say hi, to our girl."
Dean: "ok just a second" (dean shakes Liddy) "Honey Grandpa John is on the phone he wants to talk to you."
Lydia rolled over and rubbed her eyes and then Grabbed the phone Dean was handing to her.
"Grandpa? I've missed you." (she said) "I had strawberry birthday pie and Daddy let me drive baby it was so much fun."
John: "that's great sweetie, I have missed you too; I wish I could be there with you."

Lydia: "Can't you come home, Daddy and I miss you so much, Uncle Sammy doesn't like me that much it makes me sad."
John: " I'm chasing the Demon that killed Grandma Marry and Jessica, I am sorry Sammy can be pretty hard on those who rub him the wrong way but he's family and we always stick with family."
Lydia: (she sighed and looked over at Sam right in the eye.) "yes Grandpa John I'll be obedient and brave."
Lydia handed the phone back to Dean and looked at Sam and said "Grandpa said that your mean because I rub you the wrong way, I don't mean too."
Sam looked at her shocked again with out his permission he was pulling secrets from him " Lydia I don't mean to be mean I'm just used to fighting for any bit of control that I can and our family just seems to pull that away from me."
Lydia continued to burrow her eyes into his soul. "but your family and grandpa and daddy say we always stick with family mommy said that their the only people we can trust 100%"
Sam Shook his head "sometimes it doesn't work out that way because both parties are working for it."
Lydia: " but your a liar you have secrets that make you angry and you hurt my daddy, He's a good daddy and he's always honest and I don't like that your mean to him I don't know what happened last night but I can feel Daddy's hurt; don't hurt him he's all I have left grandpa john is gone and you don't like me I need him."
Sam sat their stunned taking in all what happened last night what he could have done to his brother and to his niece under the influence of that psychotic Ghost Doctor. they loaded everything into Dean's car and took off the destination that John had led them to.
SAM: "Alright, so, the names Dad gave us, theyre all couples?"
DEAN: "Three different couples. All went missing."
Lydia: "theyre all from different towns? Different states?"
DEAN: "Thats right. You got Washington, New York, Colorado. Each couple took a road trip cross-country. None of them arrived at their destination, and none of them were ever heard from again."
SAM: "Well, its a big country, Dean. They couldve disappeared anywhere."
DEAN: "Yeah, couldve. But each ones route took em to the same part of Indiana. Always on the second week of April. One year after another after another."
SAM: "This is the second week of April."
DEAN: "Yep."
SAM: "So, Dad is sending us to Indiana to go hunting for something before another couple vanishes?"
DEAN: "Yahtzee. Can you imagine putting together a pattern like this? All the different obits Dad had to go through? The mans a master." (SAM looks annoyed, pulls over to the side of the road and turns off the car.) "What are you doing?"
SAM: "Were not going to Indiana."
Lydia: Why not that's where Grandpa wants us to go."
SAM: "No. Were going to California. Dad called from a payphone. Sacramento area code."
DEAN: "Sam."
SAM: "Dean, if this demon killed Mom and Jess, and Dads closing in, weve gotta be there. Weve gotta help."
DEAN: "Dad doesnt want our help."
SAM: "I dont care."
DEAN: "Hes given us an order."
SAM: (firmly) "I dont care. We dont always have to do what he says."
DEAN: "Sam, Dad is asking us to work jobs, to save lives, its important."
SAM: "Alright, I understand, believe me, I understand. But Im talking one week here, man, to get answers. To get revenge."
DEAN: "Alright, look, I know how you feel."
SAM:" Do you?" (DEAN was shocked at SAMs tone.) "How old were you when Mom died? Four? Jess died six months ago. How the hell would you know how I feel?"
DEAN: "Dad said it wasnt safe. For any of us. I mean, he obviously knows something that we dont, so if he says to stay away, we stay away that means that I keep you safe and I keep me and Liddy safe.."
SAM: "I dont understand the blind faith you have in the man. I mean, its like you dont even question him."
DEAN: "Yeah, its called being a good son!" (SAM, angry, gets out of the car. DEAN also gets out and watches SAM unloading things from the trunk.) "Youre a selfish bastard, you know that? You just do whatever you want. Dont care what anybody thinks."
Lydia: " uncle Sam, Please stop." she cried desperately.
SAM: "Thats what you really think?"
DEAN: "Yes, it is."
SAM: "Well, then this selfish bastard is going to California." (He puts on his backpack and starts walking away.)
DEAN: "Stay in the car Liddy. (Dean told her as he got out and followed Sam.) "Come on, youre not serious."
SAM: "I am serious."
DEAN: "Its the middle of the night! Hey, Im taking off, I will leave your ass, you hear me?" (SAM stops walking and turns around.)
SAM: "Thats what I want you to do." (They stare at each other for a few seconds, waiting.)
DEAN: "Goodbye, Sam." (He closes the trunk, gets in the car, and drives away. SAM watches him leave , then starts walking away.)
Lydia: " Daddy what's happening why is Sam Leaving?"
Dean: " He doesn't want to obey grandpa, and it's hurting everyone, no one more then himself."
They made it to Burkitt's vile, Indiana. Dean pulled over to the side of the road he pulled out his cell phone. He selected Sam name he looked at it for a minute while he was thinking about calling Sam. He changed his mind and closed his phone, he shuts off the car and he and Lydia get out the walk up to a Scottys Café. a guy with a name tag with the name of SCOTTY is sitting in a chair on the porch. DEAN and Lydia walk up to him.
DEAN: (gesturing to the sign) "Let me guess." (points to SCOTTY) "Scotty." (SCOTTY looks at the sign.)
SCOTTY: "Yep."
DEAN: "Hi, my names John Bonham and this is my daughter Zoe."
SCOTTY: "Isnt that the drummer for Led Zeppelin?"
DEAN: (taken aback) "Wow. Good. Classic rock fan."
SCOTTY: "What can I do for you, John?" (DEAN takes two pieces of paper out of his pocket. They are Missing Person flyers for HOLLY and VINCE PARKER.)
Lydia: "we were wondering if, uh, youd seen these people by chance." (SCOTTY looks at the flyers.)
SCOTTY: "Nope. Who are they?"
DEAN: "Friends of ours. They went missing about a year ago. They passed through somewhere around here, and we've already asked around Scottsburg and Salem—"
SCOTTY: "Sorry." (He hands the flyers back to Lydia.) "We dont get many strangers around here." (DEAN nods.)
DEAN: "Scotty, youve got a smile that lights up a room, anybody ever tell you that?" (SCOTTY stares at them strangely. DEAN chuckles.) "Never mind. See you around." (they walk away.)
Lydia: "Daddy he was lying, I could feel it."
Dean "yeah I know baby." (Dean nods and he takes her hand and leads her back to the car.)
(Mean while SAM was standing on the side of the road. He turned around and sees a young girl with short blonde hair, sitting with her back to him, listening to music.)
SAM: "Hey." (She didn't seem to hear him. He walks over to her and puts his hand on her shoulder. which makes her jump she takes off her headphones.)
MEG: "You scared the hell outta me."
SAM: "Im sorry. I just thought you might need some help."
MEG: "No, Im good, thanks."
SAM: "Uh, so where you headed?"
MEG: "No offense, but no way Im telling you."
SAM: "Why not?"
MEG: "You could be some kind of freak. I mean, you are hitchhiking."
SAM: "Well, so are you." (MEG laughs. A van honks its horn and pulls over.)
VAN DRIVER: "Need a ride?"
SAM and MEG: "Yeah."
VAN DRIVER: (to SAM) "Just her. I aint takin you." (MEG gathers her things and gets in the van.)
SAM: (to MEG) "You trust shady van guy and not me?"
MEG: "Definitely." (They drive away.)
(Jorgensen General Store. Burkittsville, Indiana.)
DEAN: "You sure they didnt stop for gas or something?" (HARLEY shows the pictures to STACY. STACY shakes her head.)
HARLEY: "Nope, dont remember em. You said they were friends of yours?"
Lydia: "yes they were." (EMILY comes downstairs carrying some boxes.)
EMILY: "Did the guy have a tattoo?"
DEAN: "Yes, he did." (EMILY puts the boxes on the counter and looks at the picture of VINCE.)
EMILY: (to STACY and HARLEY) "You remember? They were just married."
HARLEY: (suddenly remembering) "Youre right. They did stop for gas. Werent here more than ten minutes. "
Lydia: "You remember anything else?"
HARLEY: "I told em how to get back to the Interstate. They left town."
DEAN: "Could you point me in that same direction?"
HARLEY: "Sure."
while in Deans car. they were driving by the orchard when Dean hears a noise coming from the backseat.) What the hell is that noise Lydia? (Dean pulled over and Lydia reaches into his bag she pulled out the EMF meter, which is beeping frantically and hands it to him.)
Dean: "Ok I am going to go check it out, I want you to stay in the car and keep an eye out."
(Lydia looked out into the dark forest she shivered but then she met his intense green eyes that were the exact same as her own she straitened herself up as she remembered what her mommy asked of her Be obedient and be brave.)
Lydia:" yes Daddy I'll stay in Baby and keep watch."
(Dean held her hand for a minute, she was freaked but he also knew that she was doing her best to be brave so he wouldn't have to worry about her, and holding his daughter always calmed them both down.)
Dean:" I'll Be back sweets."
(Dean got out of the car and locked the door he then started walking around and sees the scarecrow on its post. He walks over to it and looks at it for a second.)
DEAN: "Dude, you're fugly."
(The scarecrow doesnt move. DEAN notices a sickle in the scarecrows hand and the design on its arm, he takes a ladder from a nearby tree and climbs to the top so that he is eye level with the scarecrow. He moved its sleeve away from the arm and recognizes the design from VINCEs tattoo. He pulls out VINCEs flyer and compares the designs, which are exactly the same. He looks at the scarecrow again.)
Dean: "Nice tat."
Burkittsville gas station. Dean pulled his car up and he and Lydia get out. EMILY is standing by the gas pumps.)
EMILY: "Youre back."
Lydia: "We never left."
EMILY: "Still looking for your friends?" (DEAN nods.)
DEAN: (noticing EMILYs nameplate necklace) "You mind fillin her up there, Emily?" (She grabs a pump and starts filling up DEANs tank.)
Lydia: "So did, you grew up here Emily?"
EMILY: "I came here when I was thirteen. I lost my parents. Car accident. My aunt and uncle took me in".
Lydia: "are they nice people."
EMILY: "Everybody's nice here."
DEAN: "So, what, its the, uh, perfect little town?"
EMILY: "Well, you know, its the boonies. But I love it. I mean, the towns around us, people are losing their homes, their farms. But here, its almost like were blessed." (DEAN nods.)
DEAN: "Hey, you been out to the orchard? You seen that scarecrow?"
EMILY: "Yeah, it creeps me out." (DEAN laughs.)
DEAN: "Whose is it?"
EMILY: "I dont know. Its just always been there."
DEAN: (nodding towards a red van parked by the garage) "That your aunt and uncles?"
EMILY: "Customer. Had some car troubles."
Lydia: "Its not a couple, is it? A guy and a girl?" (EMILY nods she was befuddled by the look that Lydia was giving her it was intense and trustful you she felt completely comfortable talking to the little girl and her father.)
EMILY: "Mmhmm." (Dean looks down at Lydia concerned about what she was thinking that would happen to the couple.)
At the bus Station. Sam was talking to the clerk.)
CLERK: "Sorry, the Sacramento bus doesnt run again till tomorrow." (She checks the schedule.) "Uh, 5:05 PM."
SAM: "Tomorrow? Theres got to be another way."
CLERK: "Well, there is. Buy a car."
(SAM, annoyed, leaves the ticket window. He takes out his PalmPilot and selects DEANs phone number.)
MEG: (sitting on the floor with her bags) "Hey."
(SAM looks at her, confused, and turns off his PalmPilot without calling DEAN.)
SAM: "Hey."
MEG: "You again."
SAM: "What happened to your ride?"
MEG: "You were right. That guy was shady. He was all hands."
(SAM raises his eyebrows.)
Meg: "I cut him loose."
(SAM looks around, disappointed.)
Meg: "What's the matter?"
SAM: "Just trying to get to California."
MEG: (surprised) "No way."
SAM: "Yeah."
MEG: "Me too." (She stands up and walks toward SAM) "You know, the next bus isnt until tomorrow."
SAM: "Yeah. Yeah, thats the problem."
MEG: "Why? Whats in Cali thats so important?"
SAM: "Just something Ive been looking for. For a long time."
MEG: "Well, then Im sure it can wait one more day, right?"
(SAM laughs. MEG extends her hand and SAM shakes it.)
Meg:" I'm Meg".
SAM: "Sam."
( Scottys Café. SCOTTY is serving the couple whose car broke down. He puts two plates of apple pie in front of them.)
SCOTTY: "Were famous for our apples. So, you gotta try this pie."
GIRL: "Oh, no. It—please."
SCOTTY: "Its on the house." (Dean and Lydia walk in.)
DEAN: "Oh, hey, Scotty. Can I get a coffee, black? and some of that Famous Apple cider?"
(SCOTTY walks away to get it.)
Lydia: Oh, and some of that pie, too Please.
they sit at a table next to the couple.)
Dean: "How ya doin?"
(Lydia smiles at them shyly and waves at them.)
(The couple waves and smiles.)
Dean: "Just passing through?"
GIRL: "Road trip."
DEAN: "Hm. Yeah, us too." (They nod. SCOTTY walks over to refill their cider.)
SCOTTY: "Im sure these people want to eat in peace."
DEAN: "Just a little friendly conversation."
(SCOTTY walks away.)
Dean: "Oh, and that coffee, too, man. Thanks."
(SCOTTY looks agitated. DEAN keeps talking to the couple.)
"So, what brings you to town?"
GIRL: "We just stopped for gas. And, uh, the guy at the gas station saved our lives."
DEAN: "Is that right?"
MAN: "Yeah, one of our brake lines was leaking. We had no idea. He was fixing it for us."
DEAN: (concerned) "Nice people."
MAN: "Yeah."
Lydia: "do you have to wait much longer? I hate waiting it makes Daddy crazy cause I don't sit still very well. "
MAN: "Sundown."
DEAN: "Really."
(He thinks about it for a minute.)
Dean: "To fix a brake line?"
(The man nods.)
Dean: "I mean, you know, I know a thing or two about cars. I could probably have you up and running in about an hour. I wouldnt charge you anything."
Lydia: "My Daddy's the best car mechanic, he works for my uncle Bobbies junk yard and he fixes the Car's uncle Bobbie tows in."
GIRL: "I'm sure your dad is real good and thanks a lot for the offer , but I think wed rather have their mechanic do it."
DEAN: "Sure. I know."
(He pauses.)
Dean:"You know, its just that these roads. Theyre not real safe at night."
(The couple exchange a look.)
GIRL: "Im sorry?"
DEAN: "I know it sounds strange, but, uh—you might be in danger."
Lydia: " Our friends disappeared on the way out of this town and we're just real worried that something like that might happen to you guys."
MAN: (annoyed) Look, were trying to eat. Okay? thanks for the offer of help and were sorry about your friends but there's really no reason to be worried about us."
(Lydia looked down sad that they weren't listening to their warning.)
DEAN:"Yeah."
(He looks disappointed. The couple seems worried by Dean and Lydia.)
Dean "You know, my brother could give you this puppy dog look, and youd just buy right into it."
(The bell above the café door jingles and someone walks in. SCOTTY comes out from a back room.)
SCOTTY: "Thanks for coming, Sheriff."
(Lydia looks over at Dean nervous while Dean looks at Scotty frustrated. SCOTTY whispers something in the sheriffs ear, and they both look at Dean and Lydia, who look away. The sheriff walks over to Dean.)
SHERIFF: "Id like a word, please."
DEAN: "Come on. were having a bad day already."
SHERIFF: "You know what would make it worse?"
(DEAN nods slowly.)
(Interstate. The sheriffs car was following DEANs car to make sure Dean and Lydia left. When they were gone, the sheriff turned around and drove back to Burkitt's vile.)
( At the Bus Station. SAM and MEG were sitting at a table with beers and different foods around them.)
SAM: "So, what, are you on some kind of vacation or something?"
(MEG laughs.)
MEG: "Yeah, right. Its all sipping Cristal poolside for me."
(They laugh.)
Meg: "No. I had to get away from my family."
SAM: "Why?"
MEG: "I love my parents. And they wanted whats best for me. They just didnt care if I wanted it. I was supposed to be smart. But not smart enough to scare away a husband.
(SAM smiles.)
Meg: "Its justbecause my family said so, I was supposed to sit there and do what I was told. So I just went on my own way instead.
(SAM stares at her.)
Meg:"I'm sorry. The things you say to people you hardly know."
SAM: "No, no, its okay. I know how you feel. Remember that brother and Niece I mentioned before, that I was road-tripping with?"
(MEG nods.)
Sam: "Its, uh, its kind of the same deal."
MEG:"And thats why youre not riding with them anymore?"
(SAM shakes his head. MEG raises her beer bottle.)
Meg: "Here's to us. The food might be bad, and the beds might be hard. But at least were living our own lives. And nobody else's.
(SAM taps his bottle against hers and they both drink.)
( Interstate. Night. DEAN is driving back to Burkittsville. in the Orchard, The couples car has broken down and they are walking through the orchard.)
GIRL: "I cant believe it. We just got the car fixed."
MAN: "This way."
(They start walking towards a clearing. The scarecrow moves quickly behind them. The girl gasps and they turn around.)
GIRL: "Steve?"
(They hear more noises.)
STEVE: "Whos there?"
(They look around and the scarecrow comes out from behind the trees. It begins walking towards them, and they start running away. They are almost at the clearing when Dean runs in front of them. They stop.)
DEAN: "Get back to your car."
(The couple looks behind them and sees the scarecrow getting closer.)
Dean:"Go! Go!"
(The couple runs away. DEAN cocks his gun and shoots the scarecrow, which stumbles but keeps walking. Dean begins running, cocks his gun again, and shoots. Again, the scarecrow keeps going. Dean tries one more time, but the scarecrow keeps moving and Dean keeps running.)
Dean:" Go! Go!"
(Finally, DEAN and the couple reach the clearing. DEAN cocks his gun and looks around, but the scarecrow has disappeared.)
STEVE: (panting) "What—what the hell was that?"
DEAN: "Don't ask."
(Dean Led them over to the Impala to grab his tools to help them fix their car. Lydia climbed out of the car and over to the girl and looked up at her concerned.)
Lydia: "are you ok?"
Girl: "No! I.. I don't know, what the Heck was that Back there?"
Lydia: "It's a Monster, its my Daddy's job to kill the bad things so we don't have nightmares its what killed Vince and Holly."
Girl: "Oh, you tried to warn us didn't you; you and your dad did."
Lydia: "yeah, but we wouldn't leave you guys to be killed, its our family business to save people and hunt things I can't help much because I'm not old enough yet but I help with doing research, but I'm not as good as uncle Sammy, but he left he doesn't like me much and daddy and him got in a big fight."
( The girl looked at Lydia shocked how could anyone expecially her uncle not love this sweet little girl beside her, she was angry for Lydia and looked over at Steve, Dean was under their car fixing their break line.)
Girl:" you Have a really good dad."
(Lydia looked fondly on her dad, she nodded in complete agreement.)
Lydia: "My Daddy is the best ever."
(Dean Finally climbed out from under the car and wiped his hands on the cloth that Lydia handed him from his tool kit.)
Dean: "Alright your ready to go, you shouldn't have any more problems."
(Steve held out his hand to Dean.)
Steve: " thanks so much for saving us and fixing our car."
Dean: " No problem man just make sure you don't stop in this town ever again."
(Steve Led his girlfriend over to the passenger side he opened the door to let her slide in.)
Steve: " no worries we won't be coming back this way for a long time if ever."
(Steve went to the drivers side and got in and started the car and drove a way honking at Dean and Lydia as a last goodbye. Lydia climbed back into the impala and buckled up dean climbed in and looked at her in the rearview mirror.)
Dean: " You ok Little Liddy?"
Lydia: " yeah, I read a new story about a the Peasant and the Devil, A peasant found a devil in his fields, sitting on a fire. He guessed he was sitting on treasure, and the devil offered it if for two years, half of the crop was his. The peasant agreed, and said that to prevent disputes, the half above the ground was the devil's, and the half below the peasant's. When the devil agreed, the peasant planted turnips.
When harvest time came, the devil saw his leaves and the peasant's turnips, and said they must do it the other way round the next year. The peasant agreed and planted wheat. At harvest, the devil found he got nothing but stubble. Having been outwitted twice, he retreated into the earth in a fury, and the peasant took the treasure.
Lydia: "maybe something like that happened here the town made a deal with some one they have to give two people to the bad thing and then they will get a good harvest or something."
(Dean Considered for a minute.)
Dean: " why don't we Call Uncle Sammy and see what he thinks?"
(Lydia Scowled)
Lydia: "He left us Daddy, he didn't want to help us with this case."
(Dean sighed)
Dean: " I know Little Liddy, but he's Family and we have to give him a break he's a moody jerk, but we always stick with family just like your mommy and Grandpa John said right?"
(Lydia looked straight in to her dads face in the Mirror, so he could see her struggle with his decision but like always she straitened up and nodded determined to obey and be brave, he nodded at her obvious acquiescence to his desire to call Sam he smiled at her and started the car and started driving away while calling Sam on the phone.)
(In the Bus Station. Middle of the night. MEG was sleeping on the floor. SAM was sitting by his bags, on the phone with DEAN.)
SAM: "The scarecrow climbed off its cross? "
DEAN: "Yeah, Im tellin ya. Burkittsville, Indiana. Fun Town."
SAM: "It didnt kill the couple, did it?"
DEAN: "No. we cant cope without you, you know and Lydia is fine by the way if you were wondering."
(Sam Paused guiltily feeling bad that he had forgot to ask about his niece.)
SAM: "I'm glad she is ok; So, something must be animating it. A spirit."
DEAN:"No, its more than a spirit. Its a god. A Pagan god, anyway."
SAM: "What makes you say that?"
DEAN: "Lydia Gave me the Idea with one of her Grimm stories that was about a devil making a Deal with a Peasant and well along with that and just the fact of the annual cycle of its killings? And the fact that the victims are always a man and a woman. Like some kind of fertility right. And you should see the locals. The way they treated this couple. Fattenin em up like a Christmas turkey."
SAM: "The last meal. Given to sacrificial victims."
DEAN: "Yeah, Im thinking a ritual sacrifice to appease some Pagan god."
SAM: "So, a god possesses the scarecrow..."
DEAN: "And the scarecrow takes its sacrifice. And for another year, the crops wont wilt, and disease wont spread."
SAM: "Do you know which god youre dealing with?"
DEAN:"No, not yet."
SAM: "Well, you two will figure out what it is, you can figure out a way to kill it."
DEAN: "I know. we are actually on our way to a local community college. Ive got an appointment with a professor. You know, since we dont have our trusty sidekick geek boy to do all the research."
(SAM laughs.)
SAM: "You know, if youre hinting you need my help, just ask."
DEAN: "I'm not hinting anything. Actually, uh—I want you to know.I mean, dont think."
SAM: "Yeah. Im sorry, too."
DEAN: "Sam. You were right. You gotta do your own thing. You gotta live your own life and Lydia was right too family is the only one we can trust 100% even if that family tends to be a pain in the ass."
SAM: "Are you serious?"
DEAN: "You've always known what you want. And you go after it. You stand up to Dad. And you always have. Hell, I wish I—anyway.I admire that about you. Im proud of you, Sammy."
SAM: "I dont even know what to say, I get why you have to be more cautious now that you have Lydia and you cant go all half cocked like you use to, I'm proud of you too Dean."
DEAN "Thanks,: Say youll take care of yourself."
SAM: "I will."
DEAN: "Call me when you find Dad."
SAM: (sadly) "OK. tell Lydia hi from me and I love her ok? Bye, Dean."
(They hang up. MEG wakes up and moves next to SAM.)
MEG: "Who was that?"
SAM: "My brother."
MEG: "What'd he say?"
SAM: "Goodbye." (They exchange a look.)
(Dean and Lydia were at a Community College. Dean and Lydia was walking with the college professor.)
PROFESSOR: "Its not every day I get a research question on Pagan ideology."
Lydia: "Yeah, it's a hobby me and Daddy do when we visit a new town, we want to write a new version of the Grimm fairy tales."
PROFESSOR: "But you said you were interested in local lore?"
DEAN: "Mmhmm."
PROFESSOR: " I'm afraid Indiana isnt really known for its Pagan worship."
DEAN: "Well, what if it was imported? You know, like the Pilgrims brought their religion over. Wasnt a lot of this area settled by immigrants?"
PROFESSOR: "Well, yeah."
DEAN: "Like that town near here, Burkittsville. Where are their ancestors from?"
PROFESSOR: "Uh, northern Europe, I believe, Scandinavia."
DEAN: "What could you tell me about those Pagan gods?"
PROFESSOR: "Well, there are hundreds of Norse gods and goddesses."
DEAN: "I'm actually looking for one. Might live in an orchard."
(They walked into the College classroom. The professor puts a large book down on a table and opens it.)
PROFESSOR: "Woods god, hm? Well, lets see."
(He leafs through some pages. On one page, DEAN notices a picture of a scarecrow on a post surrounded by farmers in a field.)
Lydia: "Wait, wait, wait. What that one Daddy?"
PROFESSOR: "Oh, thats not a woods god, per se."
DEAN: (reading)
Dean: "The V-Vanir?"
(The professor nods.)
Dean: "The Vanir were Norse gods of protection and prosperity, keeping the local settlements safe from harm. Some villages built effigies of the Vanir in their fields. Other villages practiced human sacrifice. One male, and one female.
(points to the picture)
Dean: "Kind of looks like a scarecrow, huh?"
PROFESSOR: "I suppose."
DEAN: (reading) "This particular Vanir thats energy sprung from the sacred tree?"
PROFESSOR: "Well, Pagans believed all sorts of things were infused with magic."
Lydia: "So what would happen if the sacred tree was burned up? You think itd kill the god?"
PROFESSOR: (laughing) "these are just legends were discussing."
DEAN: "of course. Yeah, youre right. Listen, thank you very much."
(He shakes the professors hand and Lydia waves goodbye.)
PROFESSOR: "Glad I could help."
(Dean and Lydia walk to the classroom door. When Dean opens it, the sheriff hits him on the head with the end of his rifle. DEAN falls to the ground the last thing he sees and hears is the professor grabbing Lydia and her screaming for Dean, and the sheriff and the professor exchange a knowing look.)
(: Streets of Burkittsville. STACY, HARLEY, SCOTTY, and the sheriff are standing in the rain, upset.)
SCOTTY: "You dont understand, Harley. All of us here—Its our responsibility to protect the town."
HARLEY: "I understand. Better than all of you. Im the one that gives em directions. Im the one that sends em down to the orchard."
SHERIFF: "Harley, please."
HARLEY: "We all close our doors. Look the other way. Pretend we cant hear the screams. But this is different, this—this is murder not only of that boy but his little girl too we cant risk sending her somewhere and her telling the authorities."
STACY: "Its angry with us. Already the trees are beginning to die. Tonights the seventh night of the cycle. Our last chance."
HARLEY: "If the boy and the Little girl have to die, the boy has to die. But why does it have to be her?"
(They say nothing, but stare at the ground, is by himself. Suddenly, the cellar door opens and EMILY is there, being held by her aunt and uncle. She was crying.)
EMILY: "Aunt Stacy. Uncle Harley, please."
(They bring her down the stairs, next to DEAN and go back upstairs.)
Emily: "Why are you doing this?"
Dean: " Where the hell is my daughter you sick freaks?"
Harley: "we'll Make sure when she dies she doesn't suffer, she's to young to die like you will and we can't risk her telling the authorities."
STACY: " it's For the common good of everyone."
(She shuts the cellar door and DEAN and EMILY are left in the dark at the Bus station. MEG is gathering her things. SAM is trying to call DEAN on his cell phone.)
MEG: "Hey. Our bus came in."
(SAM hangs up the phone, shaking his head he was worried Dean or Lydia always answered the phone and if they didn't it meant trouble.)
SAM: "You better catch it. I gotta go."
(He puts on his backpack.)
MEG: "Go where?"
SAM: "Burkittsville."
MEG: "Sam, wait."
SAM: "I've been trying to call my brother for the last three hours. Im just getting his voicemail."
MEG: "Well, maybe his phones turned off."
SAM: "No, thats not like him or his , I think they might be in trouble."
MEG: "What kind of trouble?"
SAM: "I cant really explain right now. Im sorry, look, I dont want you to miss your bus."
MEG: "But I dont understand. Youre running back to your brother and Niece? The people you ran away from? Why, because they wont pick up the phone? Sam—come with me to California."
SAM: "I cant. Im sorry."
MEG: "Why not?"
SAM: "their my family."
(SAM leaves. MEG watches him go, close to tears.)
(Cellar. DEAN was trying to open the cellar door, but he fails.)
EMILY: "I dont understand. Theyre gonna kill us?"
DEAN: "Sacrifice us. Which is, I dont know, classier, I guess?"
(He walks over to her.)
Dean: "You really didnt know anything about this, did you?"
EMILY: "About what? The scarecrow god? I cant believe this."
DEAN: "Well, you better start believing, cause Im gonna need your help so we can get out of this before we die and anything happens to my little girl."
EMILY: "Okay."
DEAN: "Now, we can destroy the scarecrow, but we gotta find the tree."
EMILY: "What tree?"
DEAN: "Maybe you can help me with that. It would be really old. The locals would treat it with a lot of respect, you know, like it was sacred."
EMILY: "There was this one apple tree. The immigrants brought it over with them. They call it the First Tree."
DEAN: "Is it in the orchard?"
EMILY: "Yeah, but I dont know where."
(The cellar door opens and the four elders are standing there.)
STACY: "Its time."
(DEAN and EMILY look at each other, nervous. they were taken to the Orchard. The elders were tying DEAN and EMILY to two adjacent trees.)
DEAN: "How many people have you killed, Sheriff? How much blood is on your hands and does that include my little girl now?"
SHERIFF: "We dont kill them and no we brought her so she could say good bye".
DEAN: "No, but you sure cover up after. I mean, how many cars have you hidden, clothes have you buried?"
(The sheriff walks away, to get Lydia from where she was stashed.)
EMILY: "Uncle Harley, please."
HARLEY: "I am so sorry, Em. I wish it wasnt you. but the little girl is to young."
STACY: "Try to understand. Its our responsibility. And theres just no other choice. Theres nobody else but you."
EMILY: " I'm your family."
STACY: "Sweetheart, thats what sacrifice means. Giving up something you love for the greater good. The town needs to be safe. The good of the many outweighs the good of the one.
(The Sheriff brought Lydia who was screaming at the top of her lungs which started dean Struggling harder to get free.)
Lydia: " DADDY!, Let me go Daddy where are you"
Dean: " you leave her alone you son of a Bitch.!"
(The Sheriff shoved Lydia down in front of Dean.)
Sheriff: "Say goodbye to your father girl It's the Last time you'll see him."
(Lydia turned to Dean clearly afraid for herself and her father.)
Dean: "Little Liddy you have been my Joy, the one thing in my life that has given me any kind of peace I promise we'll get out of this and I will come for you ok.?"
(Lydia hugged him fiercely in her tiny arms.)
Lydia: " Daddy I Love you... I Love you more than anything I'll be brave daddy and wait for you."
(The Sheriff grabbed Lydia and hauled her up off the ground and away from Dean she kept looking at him tears running down her face but she wasn't struggling because when she looked into Deans eyes knew that he was honest with her so she was obedient and brave and she went with them, just then the four elders walk away.)
DEAN: "I hope your apple pie is freakin worth it! "
EMILY: "So, whats the plan?"
DEAN: "I'm workin on it."
EMILY: "You dont have a plan, do you?"
DEAN: (slightly panicked) "I'm workin on it. Can you see?"
EMILY: "What?"
DEAN: "Is he moving yet?"
EMILY: "I cant see."
(A shadow is seen moving near the trees.)
Emily: "Oh my God."
(As it moves closer, DEAN tries to untie his ropes.)
Emily: "Oh my God!"
(SAM comes out from behind the trees.)
SAM: "Dean?"
DEAN: (overjoyed) "Oh! Oh, I take everything back I said. Im so happy to see you. Come on. they have Lydia and we gotta kill the Vanir"
(SAM begins untying DEAN from the tree.)
Dean" "How'd you get here?"
SAM: "I, uh—I stole a car."
DEAN: "Haha! Thats my boy! And keep an eye on that scarecrow. He could come alive any minute."
SAM: "What scarecrow?"
(DEAN gets up and sees the scarecrows post is empty. He and SAM exchange a nervous , DEAN, and EMILY are running.)
SAM:" Alright, now, this sacred tree youre talking about— "
DEAN: "Its the source of its power."
SAM: "So lets find it and burn it then find Lydia before anything happens to her."
DEAN:"No I won't risk Lydia we can find that Damn tree in the morning. Lets just get her back before Leather Face catches up."
(The three of them reach the clearing looking for where the town elders went. for them are the elders and a few other townspeople.)
Sheriff: "This way."
(They turn around but they are blocked in all directions.)
EMILY: "Please. Let us go."
HARLEY: "It'll be over quickly, I promise."
Lydia: "they're Liars all of them, they only care about themselves they would rather be bad people then look out for you."
EMILY: "Please".
HARLEY: "Emily, you have to let him take you. You have to—"
(All of a sudden, the scarecrow sticks his sickle through HARLEYs stomach. EMILY and STACY scream, Lydia got out of the grip of the Sheriff and runs to Dean he scoops her up and holds her tight sticking his face in her hair grateful that nothing happened to her and he kept his promise to get her. just then STACY was captured by the scarecrow, too. EMILY also runs into DEANs arms while the Sheriff her aunt and uncle were dragged away by the scarecrow. The rest of the townspeople run away in fright.)
DEAN: "Come on, lets go."
(SAM, DEAN, Lydia and EMILY start running. They hear a noise and turn around, but the scarecrow and its victims have disappeared. The four of them stay there and look around.)
(The next Morning. SAM, DEAN, Lydia and EMILY walk to the sacred tree with gasoline and a lighter. The tree is marked with VINCEs tattoo design. SAM goes to the tree and pours the gasoline on it. DEAN picks up a long branch and lights it.)
EMILY: "Let me."
(She takes the branch from Dean.)
Lydia: "You know, the whole towns gonna die."
EMILY: "Good."
(She throws the burning branch onto the tree, and the three of them watch it go up in flames. they then piled into the Impala and drove to the Bus Stop. EMILY was getting on a bus to Boston. She smiled at DEAN and Lydia, they wave to her. She waves back at them then takes a seat. Dean, Lydia and SAM watch the bus leave.)
SAM: "Think shes gonna be alright?"
DEAN: "I hope so."
SAM: "And the rest of the townspeople, theyll just get away with it?"
Lydia: "Well, what'll happen to the town will have to be punishment enough."
(They started walking to Dean's car.)
Dean: "So, can we drop you off somewhere?"
SAM: "No, I think you two are stuck with me." (They stop at the car.)
DEAN: "What made you change your mind?"
SAM: "I didnt. I still wanna find Dad. And youre still a pain in the ass."
(DEAN nods.)
Sam: "But, Jess and Mom—theyre both gone. Dad is God knows where. You and me and Lydia. Were all thats left. So, if were gonna see this through, were gonna do it together."
(DEAN pauses and looks questioningly at Lydia since she was the one that has struggled the most with Sam, she looks over at Sam and she could see the sincerity she smiled up at Dean and nodded her assent.)
DEAN: "Hold me, Sam. That was beautiful."
(He puts his hand on SAMs shoulder, who hits it away. They laugh.)
SAM: "You should be kissing my ass, you two were dead meat, dude."
Lydia: "No way, dad had a plan, He'd have gotten out." ( Lydia said Confidently as she got in the impala and buckled up.)
SAM: "Of course he would."
(They smile and get in the car. Meanwhile on the Highway Another shady guy is giving MEG a ride.)
VAN DRIVER: "So, where to, pretty lady?"
MEG: "How about you pull over?"
(VAN DRIVER looks at her)
Van Driver: "Okay. That works."
(He pulls over. MEG reaches into her bag and pulls out a silver bowl.)
Van Driver: "What's that?"
MEG: "I've got to make a call."
(She reaches into the bowl to get something.)
VAN DRIVER: "I've got a cell phone you could use."
MEG: "Its not that kind of call."
(She pulls out a knife and slits the van drivers throat. She holds the bowl under his neck and lets his blood pour into it.)
Meg: "Thanks for the ride."
(She begins stirring the blood in the bowl with her finger.)
Meg: "Tire quiero patem me a di."
(The blood swirls around and a silver orb appears in the middle of the liquid.)
Meg: "It makes no sense. I couldve stopped Sam. Hell, I couldve taken them both. Why let them go?"
(She pauses, seemingly listening to someone the audience cannot hear.)
Meg: "Yes."
(She pauses again.)
Meg: "Yes."
(She pauses one more time.)
Meg: "Yes, Father."
