STREET
A Man wearing a fedora hat and long coat walks along a sidewalk in front of a house, and then turns down an alley along the side of the house. Dean, Elena and Sam are in a parked car on the opposite side of the street.
"All right, let's do this. Move fast." Dean Says cocking his gun.
"Wait, wait, wait. What's the plan exactly?" Sam Asks
"Don't die." Dean Says
"Gee Great Plan." Elena Says Lamely
Dean, Elena and Sam gets out of the car and hurry after the Fedora Man.
"He's heading downtown all right, you guys take the street. I'll take the alley. I'll meet you two in the middle." Dean Says
Dean turns an alleyway corner and sees the Fedora Man kneeling over and holding the head of another man, who is on his back on the ground. There is a red light above the prone man's face which seems to be being absorbed by the Fedora Man.
"Son of a..." Dean Says
He runs towards the men, as the red light from the prone man is completely absorbed by the Fedora Man, the Fedora Man lets the prone man's head fall to the ground and stands up. Sam and Elena comes around the corner and sees Dean tackle the Fedora Man. Dean and the Man disappear in an explosion of red and white light.
"Dean?" Sam Says

HOUSE
Dean is sitting at a table with a bottle of whiskey and laptop, looking at websites related to Dick Roman: Global Economic Report: RRE, a search engine page, Financial Market Watch: Richard Roman Enterprises stock soars, The Door Opens and it's Elena.
"Elena...Hey." Dean Says
"Hi." Elena Says
"You uh you came.' Dean Says
"Yeah, Denny and Corinna kinda got tired of me staying over there so." Elena Says
"I've been trying to call you, why haven't you answered." Dean Says
"I answered some of your calls." Elena Says
"Yeah maybe like three of them out of the eight times." Dean Says
"Look Dean you wanted me here, I'm here to okay...." Elena Says
He nods his head. "Nice to see you to." Dean takes a swig of his beer. Sam, who was asleep on a bed in the same room, sits up and groans.
"Don't give me that dirty-diaper look. I ain't calling you." Dean Says
Sam answers the phone."Hello?"
Jody Mills is driving."Sam, it's Jody Mills. I wake you?"
"The sheriff? Uh..."He turns on a lamp, Yeah. Uh, I mean, uh –" Sam Says
"Listen, I got something that smells like you guys."
A body turned up in Canton, Ohio. Local P.D.'s trying to bury the story and the body." Jody Says
"Okay, um, so, uh, what's up with the body?" Sam Asks
"Well, when it went missing, it was a perfectly normal grad student named Charles Durbin. When it turned up, the thing was mummified minus the wrapping. This is actually the second body found like this in the last couple weeks. Sound like a song you guys tap to?" Jody Says
"Yeah, yeah, that's, that's um... that's our kind of number. Hey, question – how does a sheriff in Sioux Falls get wind of a case in Ohio." Sam Says
"I'm just that nosy. Look, after everything I've been through with you boys, Elena and... with Bobby, you know, something like this pops up on the wire, it catches my ear. What can I say." Jody Says
"Well, we'll look into it. Thanks, Sheriff." Sam Says
"Call me after, okay?" Jody Says
"Yeah." hangs up. "That was Sheriff Mills. She caught us one." Sam Says
"Oh, I feel bad. We didn't get her anything." Dean Says
"I can't believe I'm about to say this but I hope you're watching cartoon smut, 'cause reading Dick Roman crap over and over again is just self-punishment." Sam Says
Elena looks over at Dean, After a pause Dean closes the laptop. "It's called anime, and it's an art form."
ABANDONED HOUSE
Signs saying "For Auction" and "No Trespassing" are hung on a security fence around the house. Dean and Sam are dressed in suits and Elena is dressed in a black dress, they pull up in a car outside the house.
"Well, this looks nice. Check around back?" Dean Then they drive off.
Inside the house, Dean carries a table into an empty downstairs room. Elena puts down some of their bags while Sam comes down the stairs carrying a chair.
"Well, there's a... semi-functioning bathroom and one un-rancid bedroom." Sam Says
"Define semi-functioning, and do not use the words "hole in the floor." Dean Says
Sam holds out his right fist on his left palm and nods meaningfully to Dean. Dean takes up the same position with a bit of a flourish. Elena rolls her eyes as they hit their palms with their fists twice.
Sam rolls out a bedroll in an empty bedroom. Dean enters the room and stands near the door.
"How does paper beat a rock? It's stupid." Dean Says
Sam doesn't respond and Dean leaves the room.
We see a close-up of a police file containing a picture of Charles Darbis and an autopsy report.

RESIDENTIAL STREET
Dean, Elena and Sam are dressed in their FBI wardrobe, Dean is holding the police file.
"Kids playing hide-and-seek found the body." Elena Says
"Wow. Very King Tut." Dean Says
"Yeah, so, uh, this is where the eyewitness to the assault lives, but the cops are calling him an unreliable witness." Sam Says
"Because?" Dean Says
"Let's find out." Sam Says
Dean, Elena and Sam knock at the door of a house and hold out their I.D. a man opens the door.
"Special Agent Smith. This is, uh, Special Agents Smith. No relation." Dean Says
"Whoa. Do you mind if we, uh... My mom's sleeping in there." He steps outside and closes the door.
"S-so, how can I...?" He Says
"Oh, we, uh – we had a few questions about the incident you witnessed in the alley." Sam Says
"You just gonna laugh at my story like the rest of the suits?" He Says
"We're not gonna laugh at you." Elena Says
"All right, well, I'm on the steps... medicating... when I hear fighting. So I look. There's my neighbor Durbin, and some dude dressed like my grandpa's got him by the neck, right." He Says
"What do you mean he looks like your grandpa?" Dean Asks
"Uh... Snappy shoes, suit, one of those, um, Justin Timberlake hats." He Says
"Y-you mean a – a fedora?" Elena Says
"Aha!" He Says
"Did you see anything else?" Sam Asks
"This red, like, energy passed through Durbin to hat guy. Even my watch stopped. Durbs... he aged before my eyes. He looked like a raisin." He Says
"Well, we believe you." Sam Says
The Man nods appreciatively."Oh!"
"Thanks for your help." Dean Says
"Thank you, officer – officers." He Says
Dean, Elena and Sam turn to leave.
"Wow." Elena Says
ABANDONED HOUSE
Dean and Sam are still in their white shirts, ties and suit pants, are working at the table. Sam is using the laptop, Dean leafs through John's journal, then closes it and puts it down, Elena walks in the room she removes her blazer and sits down next to Sam.
"Yep. Nothing that turns a dude into a Cryptkeeper. You?" Dean Says
Dean checks to see that a beer can next to him on the table is empty and takes three fresh beers out of a cooler.
"Uh, well, greater Canton turns out kind of a hot spot for weird dead bodies." Sam Says
"Hmm, You don't say." Elena Says
"Yeah, News archives." He turns the laptop so Dean and Elena can see. "They're not exactly reporting, uh, mummifies. But still, uh – 1928..." The laptop screen shows articles titled "Another Shriveled Body Found" and "Spontaneous Combustion Claims Life of Young Man" "Three deaths cited as spontaneous combustion. Bodies, quote, "shriveled despite no signs of fire." Sam Says
"Little stretch, but okay." Dean Says
"74..." he hits a button on the keyboard. "Three bodies found with leathery decay. Uh, '57 three more." The laptop screen shows articles titled "Strange Body Found", "Mummy Found By Boys" and "Bartender Falls Victim to Dehydration".
"Severe dehydration. This time one made the front page." Sam Says
Sam hits a button and an old newspaper photograph appears on the screen. In it, a young girl standing next to a policeman points at a corpse. In the background are a woman talking to another policeman and two men, one of whom is wearing a fedora and long coat.
"Girl named Terry Cervantes found a corpse near her church." Sam Says
"Any pattern here other than the location?" Elena Asks
"Random vics, random years. But they seem to drop in threes." Sam Says
"That's two down, one to go. All right, let me drive for a sec." Dean Says
"What, are you gonna look up more anime, or are you strictly into Dick now?" Sam Says
Elena spits out her beer a little, Sam chuckles as Dean looks unamused.
"What...it was a little funny." Elena Says
Dean types "Canton web cams" into a search engine and brings up "Securi-Net Webcams," which shows ten images from security cameras.
"Hmm." Dean Says
"Are those local feeds?" Sam Asks
"Yeah." Dean Says
"How did you do that so fast?" Elena Asks
"A little tutorial from Frank. Don't worry. We'll pretend this never happened. Now, mummy numero dos was, uh, found at the Gas n' Sip near Main Street, correct?" Dean Says
"Yeah." Sam Says
Dean enters "gas+main+st" into a search box on the Securi-Net Webcams site and brings up four security camera feeds. "All right, well, here's all the cameras around that store."
"You need to teach me that trick." Sam Says
A Man wearing a fedora and long coat appears in one of the feeds.
"Hey, check it out – Timberlake." Dean Says
"Wait a sec." Sam Says As He takes back the laptop.
"You can't let me bask in the glory for one second, can you?" Dean Says
"Shut up. Look." Sam Says
The laptop screen now shows a close-up of the man from the security camera feed, and a close-up of the man in the fedora and coat in the old newspaper photograph.
"Huh He hasn't aged a day, has he." Elena Says
"All right, well, if he's been popping up for decades now, then somebody's bound to know who he is, right? Is there any chance that, uh, Terry's still local?"
HOSPITAL
Close-up of the old newspaper photograph under the headline "Strange Body Found" from a copy of the front page of the Canton Post, Friday Morning, May 10, 1957. As the camera pans out, we see that a woman in a white coat is holding the article.
"You know it's so pretty in the spring. Everything's blooming. That's why I walked home that way – to see the flowers. Instead, I found that body. I still have no idea what could have done that to a person." Terry Says
"Do you recognize that man?" Dean Asks
"Yeah. I mean, he lived on my parents' street. Mr. Snider." Terry Says
"Where'd you say your parents live?" Dean Asks
Later On, Dean, Elena and Sam are eating take-out in the car, which is parked where it was at the beginning of the episode, across the street from a house.
"So, what exactly is this thing? Some sort of vampire who got too sucky?" Dean Asks
"Nope. Coroner's reports said there was blood in both bodies. 300-year-old blood, but blood." Sam Says
The Fedora Man comes out of the house.
"Dude, dude. Uh, fedora dude." Dean Says
The Fedora Man walks along the sidewalk and turns down the alley.
"All right, let's do this. Let's move fast." Dean Says
cocking his gun.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. What's the plan here, exactly?" Sam Asks
"Don't die." Dean Says
Gee Great Plan." Elena Says Lamely
Dean, Elena and Sam get out of the car and hurry after the Fedora Man.
"He's heading downtown all right, you guys take the street. I'll take the alley. I'll meet you two in the middle.
Dean turns an alleyway corner and sees the Fedora Man kneeling over and holding the head of another man, who is on his back on the ground. There is a red light above the prone man's face which seems to be being absorbed by the Fedora Man.
"Son of a..." Dean Says
Dean runs towards the men, as the red light from the prone man is completely absorbed by the Fedora Man, the fedora man lets the prone man's head fall to the ground and stands up. Sam and Elena comes around the corner and sees Dean tackle the man. Dean and the Fedora Man disappear in an explosion of red and white light.
Dean and the man are tussling on the ground. Dean grabs the Man's hand and sees that he is wearing a ring with an hourglass symbol. The fedora man breaks away and runs off.
"Hey!" Dean Says
He gets to his feet and hurries after the Fedora Man. He is in an alley.
"Hey!" He draws his gun. "Hey!" Dean Says
Dean reaches the street, stops and looks around. Judging by the cars and clothes, he is in the 1940s. Two policemen get out of a police car and point guns at him.
"Hey, you! Drop the gun! Put it down! Drop the gun!" Officer Says
"All right." Dean Says
Dean drops his gun to the ground, The policemen walks over to him.
