Hey everyone, sorry this took so long. Just wondering, do you guys want like the funny comments or would you prefer a more emotional conversation or maybe a mixture of both? Are you all excited for the episode tonight?
Chapter 33 - S2 The Usual Suspects
The episode begins in a police station and the police are talking about the fake ID's of a suspect they had just arrested. Sam and Dean sighed, and the others just looked confused. The police question an unseen person about grave desecrations and a murder in St Louis where they supposedly died.
'It's you Dean, isn't it?' Mary said, with a sigh.
'Can't wait to find out how you got out of this one. How on earth did you get caught in the first place?' John added.
'I'm sure you'll see later.' Sam replied.
It cuts between the police officer's questions and a team of police officers breaking in to a motel room and arresting Sam. It then reveals that Dean was the person they were questioning.
'Wait, so they caught both of you? I thought you were good at avoiding the police!' John questioned.
'Well it's difficult when you didn't even realise that they were after you.' Dean muttered in response.
A female officer, called Diana, comes in to question Sam and offers him a drink. Sam comments that she was clearly the good cop and asks where the bad cop was.
'You'd have thought that the police would stop using that technique now that everyone knows about it.' Bobby commented.
Diana replies that he was with Dean. Sam asks what they were being held for and she replies that they were being held for murder. Mary frowned. She says that he sounded very surprised but questions whether he was that good of an actor.
'Well she got something right.' John commented.
'I'm not that bad.' Sam replied, with a frown.
She says that she knew all about him.
'I doubt that.' Bobby said.
Sam refuses to answer. He says that he was taking a road trip with Dean. Diana says that they got lots of possible hits when they ran Dean's prints. She says that Dean's life was over but that Sam's didn't have to be. Mary, John and Bobby frowned. They just needed him to fill in some missing pieces.
'She doesn't know you at all if she thinks you'd betray your brother like that.' Bobby said with a small smile.
The scene cuts back in time to Dean finding a possible case. Dean calls Sam the Scully to his Mulder. Sam sighed and Dean grinned. Dean says that Tony Giles had his throat slit in his office, even though the security cameras did not show anyone entering or leaving around that time. They question his wife who says that he hadn't seen anything strange before his death. She says that he'd had a nightmare before he died and that he'd seen a woman standing at the edge of the bed.
'Just sounds like a standard ghost haunting to me. Still confused as to how you get caught.' John commented.
It cuts back to Sam telling Diana what happened. He says that he knew the woman whose husband had been killed. The scene then cuts to Sam and Dean breaking into the crime scene and they deduce that it was a vengeful spirit. They find paper with the words Dana Shulps written on it over and over.
'Dana Shulps? What is that?' Jo asked.
'You'll see.' Sam said.
They look but they can't find any trace of the name Dana Shulps in local records. Sam breaks into the victim's computer and says that he would get the password to it in 30 mins. Dean messes around for a bit then leaves to talk to Karen. The others smiled. The officer continues to question Sam over why they separated. The scene cuts to Karen, the victim's wife, thinking that there was someone in the house. She makes a 911 call. The line cuts out and the lights flicker. The fax machine runs and prints out some paper with the same thing written on it continuously. She turns and sees a woman with her throat slit. The scene cuts to Dean breaking in to the house and finding Karen dead. He sees the paper with Dana Shulps written on it. He is then found by the police and arrested.
'Well that makes a little more sense. You were caught red-handed.' Mary commented, looking slightly less confused.
Back in the present, Diana asks the other male cop, Pete, what he got from Dean and he says that he just got a load of wise ass remarks.
'Well I wasn't going to tell him anything so I needed something to fill the time.' Dean said with a grin.
Diana adds that their stories matched to the last detail. Pete replies that they were good.
'Well thank you very much, we are.' Dean replied with a smug grinned. Sam grinned as well.
'Will you two stop showing off?' Jo commented.
'Nope.' Dean replied.
Diana says that there was reasonable doubt and that they only had circumstantial evidence is Sam didn't talk. It then became clear that they were a couple. The scene cuts to Sam and Dean trying to work out who or what Dana Shulps was and they realise that it wasn't a name.
'Love how we both realised that it was an anagram at the same time.' Dean said with a grin.
'What was it? A place or something?' Jo asked, rolling her eyes.
'It was a street.' Dean replied.
Back at the police station, Dean's lawyer arrives to talk to him and he says it didn't look good. Mary frowned. Dean asks the lawyer to humour him. Dean rearranges the letters in Dana Shulps a few different ways and persuades the lawyer to see if he recognises any of them, commenting that he thought it was an anagram. The lawyer asks whether he realised how serious the charges were. Dean replies that he was handcuffed to a table and that he understood but he asks the lawyer to humour him. He says that one of them was the name of a street not far away.
'That was fortunate. Most lawyers are not that useful.' Bobby commented.
Dean asks if he could get a note to Sam. The lawyer agrees but he reminds him that he could face the death penalty. Dean thanks him sarcastically and calls him Matlock. Meanwhile, Diana sees Dana Shulps come up multiple times on her screen.
'Was she the next victim?' Mary asked, and Dean nodded.
The lawyer goes in to see Sam who calls him Matlock and the lawyer says that they really were brothers.
'Sam if you copy my jokes again I swear…' Dean began but he was interrupted.
'I didn't copy you. I didn't even hear you say it.' Sam protested.
'Whatever. Just because I'm funnier than you does not mean you can copy me.' Dean replied and Sam rolled his eyes.
The lawyer is then called away as Dean has decided to confess.
'What the hell! Why did you do that?' Jo asked, looking confused.
'It was a distraction so that Sam could escape. Plus, it was funny because it annoyed the police officer.' Dean replied.
'Of course you would do that.' Bobby sighed.
Dean tells the officers the truth about what he and Sam did but they didn't believe it. Pete calls him arrogant bastard.
'Couldn't agree more.' Sam said with a grin.
'It's what makes me so likeable.' Dean replied.
Pete then attacks him and gets him locked up after being held back by some other officers. They then find that Sam has escaped. He finds the note Sam had got from Dean which told him about the street and mention two characters from the Great Escape. John laughed. Diana goes to the bathroom and sees the spirit and the words Dana Shulps appear in the mirror. She then notices that she has bruises on her arm and she asks Dean about it. Dean says that he thinks that she is going to be the spirits next victim. Dean tells her how to find Sam by looking for the first motel listed in the yellow pages and he gives her the name he used.
'That was a bit risky wasn't it? She could've had him arrested again.' John commented.
'Not if she wanted to live she wouldn't.' Sam replied.
Diana finds Sam and tells him what happened. She says that it was like the spirit was trying to talk to her but she couldn't because her throats was slit. Sam tells her to look through the pictures of missing women from the street the lawyer had recognised. She recognises one of the women and they find out that she was picked up for narcotics before she disappeared. They then go to look for a body so that they could salt and burn her bones. They check out the building where she disappeared. The ghost, Claire, appeared and led them to her corpse.
'That's weird. Why would a ghost want to get killed?' Jo asked.
Sam comments that no vengeful spirit had ever led them to their remains and that it was weird. They then find a necklace on the corpse that was identical to one Diana had. She says that she had been given it by Pete. Sam says that the spirit is a death omen and that Pete had killed her and she was trying to get revenge.
'That makes more sense. I hate it when humans turn out to be the killers.' John comments.
'Same.' Dean adds.
Diana says that a year ago a police officer working in narcotics took some heroin from an evidence bag and they would've needed someone to fence their product. The scene cuts to Pete transferring Dean at 2 in the morning. Sam and the officer find that out and that he wasn't answering his radio. Sam then works out how to track his car. Meanwhile, Pete stopped and takes Dean out. He tells Dean that he was going to die trying to escape. He takes out a gun and Dean tries to stall him unsuccessfully.
'You are not as good at stalling as you think you are.' Jo commented.
'Shut up.' Dean replied.
Diana and Sam then appear. Pete then confesses and says that he was going to pin in on Dean. 'One more dead scumbag' Pete says and Dean replies indignantly with 'Hey!'. Diana pretends to put her gun down but then shoots him in the leg. He tries to escape and holds a gun to Diana. He is then distracted by Claire who suddenly appears and Diana shoots him properly. She then lets Sam and Dean escape. She says that she could get their cases dismissed but not the St Louis murders. Dean asks where his car is and she tells him and says to not even think about trying to get it back. They then leave, with the car of course.
'I was gonna say. If you'd have left the car I would've been pissed.' John commented.
