Episode 19:
Woods. Brother and kid. Or friends? Outside Gunnison, Colorado. 1989. Fishing. Jess, as soon as I turn 18, we'll get out of here, okay? Buffalo nickel. Young one has to pee. Goes off behind a tree. Hears noises. Mattie? He's in trouble. Jessie! He runs after Mattie. Noises behind him.
Bunker. Sam says Dean hasn't moved since last night. Sitting is the new smoking. We'll find Cas. Dean knows Amara doesn't care about little angels. Killing Cas would mean nothing to her. Sam says we get back out there. We'll catch a break. it's karma. Dean says karma has been kicking us in the teeth. Sam has a case. Mutant creature with green eyes. Demon? One way to find out.
Sheriff's station. Missing 6 in the last 48 hours. Girl and Libby where on the last legs of a cannabis tasting tour. Sheriff says the disappearances go back to the start of the town. She's only been here 2 years. Old-timers have theories. She thinks people get fed up and leave. Dean says every 27 years like clockwork? She's focused on the missing now. You can look at all the files.
Dean talks to the witness. Nothing is too strange or weird. She says the thing was naked and pale, but the eyes flashed green for a second. No hair. Shaped like a man....or woman....it didn't have any genitalia. Dean asks anything else? She says sound. When I found Libby, she was standing there, shivering, shaking. Creepy. Chittering noise.
Libby? What happened? Green glowing eyes.
The buzzing came from her body? We heard the same sound before the thing jumped on us.
Sam did weed or oregano is college. LOL. Dean teasing him. Sam found something in a file from '89. Notes abruptly stopped. He resigned and fell off the radar. Dispatcher thought he moved to Florida, but that was a dead end. Witnesses are dead or moved away except one. Etta Frasier.
She says Pete cheated on her. In public. Doris and Missy brought out the hog in him. They disappeared that year, too. She says he didn't come home for 3 days. Didn't find out about the women for a long time after. Sam smells white sage. Etta's taking a trip to stay with her sister. When Pete went missing, my grandma said he got the chitters. People go nuts and have orgies in the woods, then are never heard from again. Now people are disappearing again. Gran called it chitters to describe the sound coming from the woods. Green eyes? Yeah.....your eyes would shine like emeralds. Awkward....
Dean and Sam get in the car. Let's hit the books.
Teens taking a shortcut. Find chitters. Surrounded. The boy is bitten while the girl runs off.
Sam and Dean and the sheriff talking to the new witness. It was Coach Hollister. He killed Cliff. Sam asks if she recognized the couple. She did. Anybody else? She thought there were more down the alley. Dean asks if it was an orgy like situation? Girl has never seen one. Sheriff says enough.
She's freaked. What is this?! Dean says it's a new one for us. She's going to contact the families. Sam wants to check the crime scene. Dean gets a call.
Dean goes to the woods. Sees Libby. He's tackled by a guy. Another man chops off the head and helps Dean up. Partner stabs the chitter. a lot. Who the hell are you guys? You wouldn't believe us.
Bar. Dean asks how long they've been hunting? 7 years. They thought the Winchesters died. Sam arrives. Hunters are mostly in Mexico. Sam says nothing in the alley. Hunters say it's a cicada spirit. Maybe from Malaysia. Dean says we're dealing with townsfolk here. Hunter shows them what it really looks like. They climb into a shell. The buzzing is a mating call. Sam asks how they know so much? Man says one of them took my brother 27 years ago. He's asking them to take a step back from this one. They've been looking for the burrow. Jesse hates the town. They didn't believe me 27 years ago. Dean says you fight like brothers. Hunter says like an old married couple. Oh.... What's it like settling down with a hunter? Heh. Sam asks about Sheriff Cochran. Jesse says he ran off a couple towns over, lives like a hermit. Dean offers to go with the Hispanic partner.
In the car. We have to find the burrow tonight. Or Jesse will wait another 27 years. Dean says we'll smoke those SOBs. Man says I never had siblings, but seen it over and over. Losing someone when they're young, it never heals over. Hunters are never fixed, are they? Dean agrees. But you have to help 'em, anyway.
In the woods. Looking around with flashlights.
Sam and Jesse. Jesse searched for Mattie 10, 20 minutes. I found him, and it wasn't human. Took off, didn't look back. My mom fell apart, crying. Why was I making up this lie? Everybody thought I should've done something. Mattie was a great brother.
Woods. Coming up behind the hunter. He sees the loose dirt. Gets jumped. Dean runs up. It takes off. Hunter tells Dean to go after it.
Cabin. Sitting with the sheriff from 27 years ago. Jesse's angry. Sam says more people have gone missing. Sam MO> Mr. Cochran says it's not.
Dean returns to him. Saw where it went. Think I found the burrow. Gonna be alright? Yeah. No cell service. Let's go.
Cochran splashes water on his face. Dries it. Returns to the living room. Leave me your card and I'll call. Sam says you don't own a phone. Tell us what you know. Cochran couldn't find them. Never recovered from it. Wish you all the luck. Jesse says I was 12. I never got over that day. Cochran says it's time for you to go. Sam says we know what took them. Jesse was telling the truth. it was not human. Jesse saw one of the creatures today. Cochran knew she was something. Tracked one. It was sick and dying. My daughter was there at the lair. She left for school, I don't know what happened, but she was one of them. Sam says you never reported her missing. He says I knew where she was. All the missing were scattered around, dead. I tried talking to her, but she attacked me. Teeth like thorns. I killed her. Jesse grabs him. You knew the whole time! When everyone was suffering! We could've told people together! Cochran says all the missing were dead. Jesse says you killed her. You killed her! Sam says what did you do, pretend she went somewhere? Cochran buried it, all of it. Sam asks where did you find her? Taylor Creek, the old Donnelly Mine.
Dean and the hunter find a boarded up mine. Go inside. Split up.
Dean in one tunnel. Finds a body. Pregnant. Checks for a pulse. Moving in her belly, glowing. He sees a hole. Chitter behind him. It attacks.
Hunter finds a chitter. Manages to chop off its head.
Dean uses a shovel on his opponent. Hunter reunites with him. What is this place? Maternity ward, slash subway station. Males were protecting the eggs. Dean's got 5 gallons of gas in the car.
Sam and Jesse arrive. Find the burrow? In the mine. Just gotta take care of the eggs. Dean offers the gas to Jesse. He goes alone.
Find him with Mattie's remains. Coin pouch with the Buffalo Nickel. Partner says we'll give him a proper burial. Dean says they'll take care of the others.
Preparing the hunter burial. Sam says when I wouldn't hear from you and Dad for a while, I figured something finally got ya. I was just lost. Dean says we came back every time. They think the hunters could help us with Amara and Cas. Jesse burns his brother's remains.
Good thing you had a fire extinguisher. he new guys, They have a deal to retire. Dean lets them off the hook. Sam asks what's freedom look like? A horse ranch in New Mexico. Time to start living. They leave. Sam says couldn't do it, huh? Dean says it didn't feel right. When hunters make it to the finish line, you leave that alone.
Next ep - Fog. Amara infection. A message for Dean.
