Chapter 19 - The Benders
The episode began with a little boy witnessing a man being dragged underneath his car.
'This case was weird.' Dean said, looking disgusted. Sam nodded. Everyone else frowned.
The scene cut to Sam and Dean posing as State police officers and they heard the boy's story first-hand. They all smiled as Dean bonded with the kid over Godzilla and made fun of Sam for preferring a different version to them.
'I still prefer the remake.'' Sam said and Dean rolled his eyes.
'I thought I'd educated you but obviously not.' Dean said with a sigh.
The boy said that he heard a whining growl just before the guy disappeared.
'That's weird. Definitely sounds like something to look into.' John said. Sam and Dean glanced at each other.
The scene cut to a bar and Dean questioned if it was their kind of case but Sam said that John had marked it out and that the town had more missing persons per capita than anywhere else in the state. Sam then said that they should find a motel and Dean complained and called him a grandma. Sam rolled his eyes.
'What? You were!' Dean commented.
Dean went to the toilet and Sam went outside and he looked underneath a car when he heard a whining noise and he jumped as a cat came out.
'Look at you scared by a cat.' Dean said.
'You can talk!' Sam retorted and Dean decided to shut up. A vague memory of him screaming at the top of his lungs came to mind. This is stupid. He thought.
The scene then cut to Dean coming out and Sam was nowhere to be seen. He looked everywhere and called out his name and asked people if they had seen him.
'Aww, you actually look worried.' Sam said with a smile.
'You just disappeared on me.' Dean replied.
Dean then went to the police and said that Sam was his cousin. The officer asked if Sam had a drinking problem and Dean replied that after two beers Sam was doing karaoke.
'No I don't!' Sam retorted indignantly.
'How would you know though if you were drunk?' Dean replied with a grin.
The officer then looked him up and mentioned that Sam's brother, Dean, was suspected of murder.
'Oh dear, I forgot about that.' Mary said, looking worried. She had a feeling that eventually someone would realise that he wasn't dead and they would catch up with him.
Everyone smiled when Dean said that he was the black sheep of the family but that he was handsome. Dean then mentioned that the traffic cam would've picked up what took him.
'So nice and easy when that happens.' John commented.
Dean persuaded her to take him with her to look at it by saying that Sam was his responsibility and that he had to find him.
'I don't get it. Why do u always have to look after me?' Sam asked.
'Cuz you're the little one who always needs protecting.' Dean said with a smirk and Sam slapped the back of his head. Dean hadn't meant that of course. He'd known for a while that Sam could protect himself.
Meanwhile, Sam woke up in a cell with what looked like a dead body in the next one. Mary felt a flicker of panic but she realised that they were still here so they can't have died.
The officer came out with the traffic cam photos which showed a white van there just as Sam left the bar. They then see a van that looked like the other one just painted brown.
'That's very coincidental.' Cas commented.
'Yeah. I never realised that till now. That's weird that we saw it just as we were talking about it.' Dean replied.
The scene then cut to Sam who found that the guy in the next cell was alive. He told the guy that he came to rescue him as he was the guy who disappeared.
'That won't have filled him with confidence.' John said.
The guy replied that it was a piss poor rescue. He then found out that the things that took them were human.
'I never knew how messed up humans were until then.' Dean said and the others agreed.
They gave the other guy some food. Sam then tried to pull on the cables.
'I doubt that will work.' Cas said.
Dean and Kathleen, the cop, then drove down the road as the van hadn't passed the next traffic cam. Kathleen then revealed that the badge Dean had was stolen and that the man who owned it was black. Dean tried to convince her that he'd lost weight and had the Michael Jackson skin disease.
'Really? The Michael Jackson skin disease? That's what you went' for?' Bobby asked.
'Like you would've come up with a better lie under pressure.' Dean replied.
Dean persuaded her to not arrest him. He said that he felt responsible for him ever since he pulled him from the fire when they were small. Sam suddenly realised why Dean always tried to protect him. It was something he's railed against for years. He could protect himself now.
The scene then cut to Sam who told the other guy not to call him Sammy.
'Why does everyone call me that?' Sam asked.
'Cuz you look like a kid.' Dean joked.
Sam pulled a bracket off the pipe. Sam warned him to go back, saying that it was too easy and that it was a trap. Jenkins escaped and found a knife but is hurt and killed by the people who appeared to be hunting him. The scene then cut to Sam hearing the guy's scream.
'That family is sick.' John commented.
The scene then cut to Dean and Kathleen who told Dean that her brother had disappeared a few years' earlier. Kathleen then handcuffed Dean to her car after tricking him by offering to shake on him not getting involved. Dean said that he should start carrying paper clips.
'Should've been better prepared.' John said with a smile.
Kathleen went up to the house and saw a creepy little girl who she began talking to.
'Poor kid.' Mary said.
'What do you mean? She's really creepy.' John said.
She was then knocked out by a larger guy who came up behind her. Dean then used part of the car to escape his handcuffs just in time before the other guys came around the corner.
'I never actually realised how close that was.' Dean said.
Kathleen woke up in a cell next to Sam and she worked out who he was. She then remembered that she'd cuffed Dean to her car.
'At least she realised how stupid she was.' Mary said.
Dean then eventually found them and he told Kathleen that he knows a trick or two when she asked how he escaped the handcuffs. When Sam told him that they were human, he said that Sam was rusty for letting them jump him.
'I agree with that.' John added.
'He was out of practise.' Dean responded.
Dean said that they took the cars of the people they took and Kathleen asked if he'd seen her brother's car and he said he had.
'Poor woman.' Cas sympathised.
Dean then left to find the keys. Dean found out what the guys did.
'Demons I get, people are crazy.'
'I agree with you there.' Cas said.
Dean then got jumped after the little girl gave him away as he was sneaking up on the head of the family. He had been distracted by a jar of teeth.
'And you had a go at me for getting jumped.' Sam said.
'There were four of them!' Dean protested.
Dean became conscious and found out that he was tied to a chair. They asked him if he'd killed before.
'I sure have.' Dean said, grimly.
The head of the family told him that he hunted most things but that the best hunt was human. They asked him if he was a cop. They asked if anyone else was coming and Dean replied with 'Eat me. No, no,no wait you actually might.'
'Not quite the time for a joke, Dean.' John reminded him.
'Whatever. It keeps the atmosphere light.' Dean replied.
Then then threaten to blind him with a hot poker. John and Mary looked at each other.
'Man, that was not nice.' Dean said.
They offer him the choice of Sam or Kathleen for them to hunt. Dean choose Sam.
'Thanks a lot.' Sam said.
'I knew you would be able to get away easier.' Dean replied.
The guy told the other to shoot him in the cage and shoot Kathleen.
'What the hell? He said he'd give him a chance!' Mary protested.
Sam used the bracket to knock out the guy and he took his gun but it was out of bullets. The others went after Sam and left the girl to watch Dean.
'Watched by a child?' Bobby said with a grin. Dean sighed.
Kathleen and Sam knocked one out and tricked the other into shooting the third guy in the leg and put them in the cage. The one who was shot taunted Kathleen into shooting him. She told Sam and Dean he'd tried to escape.
'So that's what happened' Sam said. He had felt very sorry for Kathleen.
Kathleen called for backup. She told them to start walking. She said that she thought it would be easier knowing what happened to her brother but she said that it wasn't.
'I like her so much.' Mary said with a smile.
Sam and Dean start walking and Dean told Sam to never go missing again. He said that he wouldn't look for him if he went missing again and Sam reminded him that he was held prisoner by a thirteen-year-old girl.
'You aren't going to let me forget that are you.' Dean said.
'Nope.' Sam said with a grin.
