The Hardy Boys Go Native

In a hurry? Read the recaplet for a nutshell description! Finished? Click here to close.

Sam and Dean travel to an Oklahoman exurb to investigate the mysterious death (i.e., brains eaten out of his head) of a construction worker. After finding a couple of beetles at the crime scene, Sam is understandably suspicious. At a neighborhood barbecue, Sam and Dean are mistaken for a gay couple, and meet a teenaged boy obsessed with bugs. The kid is the son of the exurb's developer. He leads Sam and Dean to a secret spot in the woods, where Sam shows them a bone. No, not that kind! Real, actual bones, which they take first to a tweedy anthropology professor and then to a real live Injun! Whose Poltergeist story about cursed burial grounds visiting revenge upon Whitey through bug violence is accompanied by rattlesnake percussion! Sam and Dean rush to warn the developer and his family, but arrive just as the swarm of bugs descends. They all pile into the attic where they endure a bug attack for approximately three minutes before it turns into dawn and the curse is broken. The excitement was nearly too much to bear. I should give credit where credit is due, though. They were also protected by Dean and the weeniest "flamethrower" ever devised by man. Want more? The full recap starts right below!

Previously, guts, flames, and a mysteriously dead mom. Currently: a quest for answers, and hotness.

Oasis Plains, Oklahoma. A McMansion development is under construction. Two workers are laying gas pipes. The first, named Travis, says, "Man, these are some phat houses. I'd like to live here." His partner Dustin tells him to keep dreaming, and they agree that "this neighborhood will be damned expensive when its done" while Sympathetic Strings of the Working Class slowly transform into Eerie Drone of Impending Death. Dustin furrows his brow, apparently because he can hear the show's score, and kneels to run his hand across the dirt. My closed captioning indicates that at this very moment, "buzzing intensifies," so I guess the cacophony in the background of this scene is supposed to be "buzzing." Dustin yelps and falls into a sinkhole off camera. Travis is immediately superfreaked, even though I'd imagine people get hurt all the time on construction sites, and is rushing around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to find a rope. And although the establishing shots clearly showed the two were working about twenty feet from a gaggle of other workers, no one else is able to help get Dustin out of the hole. However, the shots of Dustin in the hole realizing he is sitting in a pit seething with beetles are pretty scary. Long story short: Travis takes about ten years to find a rope in the truck that sits about five feet from the sinkhole and Dustin gets his bloody brains eaten by beetles.

Outside a ramshackle roadside bar. Patrick Swayze is a philosopher by day and a bouncer by night. His nights are filled with fast action, hot music, and beautiful women. It's a dirty job but somebody's gotta do it. Shit, if only I were watching Road House right now. But seriously folks, the bar here is named The Loading Dock, which I guess is one way you could put it. Def Leppard 's "Rock of Ages" thumps in the background, and I'll be right back. The karaoke stage calls.

Okay, so we're outside a bar, a bar that is named rather gayly, I think we can all agree. Motorcycles rev their engines while the High Priest of Pad sits in his hot little hustler car reading the newspaper. The Acks saunters out of the bar flashing a wad of cash, to the dismay of his little brother, who whines, "You know, we could get day jobs once in a while." Sam then goes on to set up the Theme of Tonight's Episode by noting that "hustling pool" and "credit card scams" are "not the most honest thing[s] in the world." Dean sees Sam's Theme and raises him a Motif: "It's what we were raised to do. We're good at it." Turns out the Pad Man has found a notice in the paper about a gas company employee in Oklahoma who died from Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. In other words, human mad cow disease. Thanks, college boy. Dean remarks, "Mad cow. Wasn't that on Oprah?" and launches a thousand squees in the process. Sam is incredulous: "You watch Oprah?" and Dean just changes the subject. In a very manly way, of course: by licking his luscious lips. Right about now, McG's executive producing credit flashes on the screen. Has anybody else watched the featurette on the Charlie's Angels DVD where he sums up his artistic vision, all, "More cars! More explosions! More tits!"? Simpatico, is all I'm sayin'.

Oklahoma. The boys pull into the gas company parking lot, and walk directly up to a man who turns out to be exactly the man they were looking for. I want to live in a WB show! Everything is so conveniently pre-digested! They've found Travis, he of the interminable rope searching, and proceed to ask him about Dustin's death. Except they're posing as "Uncle Dusty's" nephews. Dean butters Travis up, and Travis starts spilling the beans. Travis seems a little unconvinced by the Mad Cow diagnosis, and tells them where the work site where it all went down is located.

The Metallicar (thanks, forum!) chugs into Oasis Plains, stopping in front of the house with the yellow caution tape. The work site is again excessively miked, making it sound like workers are just around the corner, and yet the brothers march right through the yellow tape and up to the sinkhole. They discuss whether or not "some sort of creature chewed on his brain," a possibility Sam disdains since there was no "entry wound." They peer into the hole without seeing much when Dean declares that "there's only room for one" and suggests they "flip a coin." Sam reminds him that they "have no idea what's down there" when Dean returns with a garden hose and unleashes reverse-psychology BroFu on Sam. Dean is all, "Okay, if you're scared, I'll go down there" until Sam falls for it: "Don't call me chicken!" and all is right in the world of Retarded Brotherly Relations. We fade to the scene before getting to see Sam go down the hole. Good thing, because my mind might have exploded if he had actually ridden a hose into a hole.

In the Metallicar, Sam fingers a beetle. Can't make this shit up! Dean snarks, "So you found some beetles. In a hole. In the ground. That's shocking, Sam." Hee. Sam lectures that some beetles do eat meat, but admits he only found ten down there. Dean is skeptical. Sam suggests they find out more information on the area and the neighborhood, and just then they conveniently drive by an open house happening in the neighborhood. Please note that, were you to be watching the scenery go by outside the car, you would have noticed that the brothers keep passing the same black pick-up truck. Over and over and over again. Thanks, WB! And though they had passed the Open House sign a good half minute ago, they pull up and park their car about 10 feet beyond the red balloons that were attached to the sign. Quality is Job One!

As the brothers walk up to the house, Dean tells Sam that "growin' up in a place like this would freak me out…the manicured lawns, the 'How was your day, honey?' I'd blow my brains out." And while I'm with him on the ills of these kinds of exurbs, I also would choose that childhood over one lived under the shadow of a charred and eviscerated mother. Sam lectures Dean, "There's nothing wrong with normal," but Dean isn't having any of it: "I'd take our family over normal any day." That's, well, problematic, seeing as how "normal" would probably mean a non-dead mother.They are greeted at the door of the open house by a solicitous man who politely tries to excuse the show's low budget by expositing about the rainy day on which shooting could not be delayed: "Not the best weather." The man is Larry Pike, the developer, and he rushes to assure the brothers that their interest in Oasis Plains would be met with nothing but squeals of delight by the bored housewives of the neighborhood who are in desperate need of decorating tips: "Let me just say, we accept homeowners of any race, religion, color, or sexual orientation." Dean takes it in stride, pointing at Sam and informing Larry that they are actually brothers looking for a place for their father, who's "getting on in years." Larry's dreams of hot gay orgies are quashed, but he covers his disappointment well -- "Great, well, seniors are welcome, too" -- and invites The Hardy Boys in.

In the backyard, extras mill about under a big tent carrying plates of food while Larry gives the boys the hard sell. He says that when he first saw this land it was "nothing but scrub brush and squirrels" and that he liked the development so much he bought into it himself. Larry introduces the boys to his wife and then excuses himself. The boys exclaim, "Ewww! Cooties!" A truly frightening monster elbows her way into the conversation, introducing herself as "Linda Bloom, Head of Sales." Her hair is pulled back so tightly her bellybutton is on her chin, and she's wearing a blazer with a realtor's insignia patch over the breast. Oh, WB. You've really nailed it this time, trying to attract the young men. Apparently Linda is the only other person that lives in the development besides Larry and company. This is a point that the show is at pains to make, and then, as we'll later see, at pains to completely ignore. Larry's wife leaves the boys to talk with Linda, who also mistakes The Hardy Boys for Chelsea Boys. This time, they don't correct her, and Dean turns around to go talk to Larry, asking Sam, "Okay, honey?" and slapping him on the ass.

In the house, Larry goes over decorating options with Dean; then Dean notices a couple of jars full of bugs sitting on a credenza. Hee. I just said "credenza." Larry practically spits out his explanation: "My son. He's…into insects." Dude, you live in the middle of Oklahoma, be glad your son's not "into" crystal meth.

Backyard, where Linda is going over the perks of having a "steam shower" when Sam notices a huge tarantula creeping toward her hand on the picnic table. A boy looks on from behind Linda, laughing. Sam makes it clear that he's tuned Linda and her lack of sex appeal out by literally pushing her out of the frame. Another reason to live in a WB show: instant and unquestioned termination of boring conversations. Which is not, unfortunately, to say that more lively conversations follow. ["Or that that the terminations occur in a timely fashion." -- Sars] Sam brings the spider over to the giggling adolescent, whose similarly shaggy-banged hairdo represents the deep connection he will come to have with the brooding Sam. The kid gripes that "Larry usually skips me in the family introductions" causing Sam to go all, "Ouch, first-name basis with the old man?" The kid tells him, "Well, I'm not exactly brochure material." Sam assures his boytoy that "it gets better," drawing upon his experience with not being brochure material for his own father. That brochure? Titled Guns, Ammo, and Sippy Cups.Larry rushes out, admonishing "Matthew." Apparently his oversensitive My Son Is Being A Freak alarm just went off inside the house. He apologizes to Sam about "his son and his pet" and then marches the kid back toward the house. Dean walks up to Sam and they both gaze upon the father-son drama happening on the steps. Sam thinks Larry reminds him of his own dad, but Dean isn't having it: "Dad never treated us like that." Sam scoffs, "Well, Dad never treated you like that, you were perfect. He was all over my case." Dean is still slackjawed about this comparison, conceding only that their father raised his voice when Sam was out of line. Sam licks his psychic wounds some more: "Right, like when said I'd rather play soccer than learn bow hunting." Dean finally gets serious: "Bow hunting's an important skill." Hee.

The boys take a break from their Tortured Exposition of Family History and Dean tells Sam that Dustin wasn't the first person to die mysteriously on the land. Apparently, a year ago, before the development broke ground, a surveyor dropped dead from an allergic reaction to bee stings. Sam nods knowingly, "More bugs." I have to say, I prefer McG's "More tits."

Back in the Metallicar, the brothers discuss what could cause different bugs to attack. Sam mentions that "hauntings sometimes include bug manifestations," but they both agree that they "didn't see any evidence of ghost activity." I'm sorry, but this dialog is cracking me up. Dean, brainstorming his little brain out, furrows before suggesting that maybe the bugs are being controlled by someone. Sam responds with a truly baffling indie film reference -- "You mean like Willard?" -- and later that day finds an invitation to a treasure hunt hosted by Crispin Glover in his mailbox. Sam, who is now inexplicably expressing skepticism about the attack of the bugs theory he himself invented, is all shrugs and "I guess it could be bugs." Dean suggests that maybe Larry's kid is behind all of this, that maybe "he could be our Willard." Oh, I'll bet you two are lookin' for a Willard.

Dean tells Sam to pull over into the driveway of one of the houses. I'd just like to know exactly how big these developments are, because they were driving the car at at least 30 mph during the entire conversation, and they are still in the same neighborhood. Guitar Riffs of Brotherly Hijinks play as Dean gets out to open the garage door and Sam expresses disbelief at his plan: "We're gonna squat in an empty house?" Sam, like me, prefers the convenience of Motel 6. But Dean wants to try the steam shower, which admittedly they don't have at The Six. The most you can hope for at The Six is to get a handicapped shower, which are really quite roomy. As Sam pulls the chugging Man Car into the garage he reaches out and slaps Dean in the stomach. Hott. Spooky fog zoom on the exterior of a house. Inside, Bellybutton Face walks into her bedroom and turns her television on. The news is reporting a county decision to spray insecticides due to a number of West Nile cases. Bugs, bugs, bugs. Linda has let her hair down, and in the process allowed her bellybutton to drop back to its natural location. However, apparently her "hair" isn't the only thing set free from that severe bun; a huge CGI spider comes crawling out of her hairline and down across her forehead. She seems not to feel it at first. One of the lesser-known side effects of Botox is actually that your face could be crawling with bugs and you won't feel it at all. When she finally does notice it, she bats it away but doesn't bother to figure out what the fuck kind of million-legged thing was just camping out on her forehead. Obviously, she deserves to die. Linda heads to the shower, where fuzzy CGI spiders start bleeding out of the showerhead all across the shower wall. Couldn't they sharpen those effects up a little? Linda screams, and busts through the shower door to try to escape them. Here, the one truly affecting scare tactic of this episode occurs: the camera shows just her feet trying to run but slipping on the wet floor tiles. Blood drips onto the shower floor and the camera pans out to find her artfully naked body sprawled out and covered with spiders. But really, what, exactly, did she just die from? There's "mystery," and there's mystery, people.

Commercials. The morning, a shower runs, and Sam marches down the hallway to bang on the bathroom door asking when Dean is planning on coming out. He yells through the door that a police call came in on the scanner and that someone was found dead three blocks away. Dean cracks open the door, wearing a towel on his head and steam pouring out behind him, and quips, "This shower is awesome." Be still my heart, that guy has some face. Sam continues on his quest towards becoming America's Top Boring and just tells him to hurry up.

Outside, it is raining again. Thanks, Vancouver. A body bag is wheeled out of a house, and The Hardy Boys are hardly suspicious as they walk up to Larry outside the crime scene. All three hold umbrellas, and I'm hoping against hope for a little Gene Kelly soft-shoe number here. I mean, if you're gonna do gay, do gay. All the boys get out of Larry is that Linda is the dead person. And I have to say, if there are truly only two houses being lived in -- a point which will be key when the swarm descends later on -- shouldn't the guys know that it was Linda that got dead? Since it was obviously not Larry or any of his family?

Two stunt doubles scale the side of a house. Inside the house, Sam and Dean step through a window to find the taped outline of a body. Dean goes into the bathroom and shakes out a towel lying on the floor, releasing a handful of plastic Halloween spiders. The Acks's reaction is great, because while his head-shaking is supposed to communicate, "Man, we were right. There is something weird going on around here," it also works well to communicate, "Jesus Christ, Props. Couldn't you at least get rubber spiders?" They think the culprit is probably the kid, Matt.The Metallicar pulls up at the exact moment Matt is dropped off by his school bus. Matt heads into the woods and The Hardy Boys follow. I wonder if they'll find much wood in the woods? Cut to Matt acting like the TOTAL FREAK he is, collecting bug specimens. Only on the WB is a teenaged bug collector treated like a budding pyromaniac. I mean, the kid is totally sitting with the nerd herd at lunch, but a family pariah? I don't think so. Anyhow, Sam activates the GPS device in his artfully-mussed bangs, a special device that locates all similarly mussed bangs in a fifty-mile radius. Or, the boys find Matt. By the way, this "forest" set is truly atrocious. I was just at The Field Museum in Chicago the other day, and the sixty-year-old papier-mâché foliage they had in the largely-forgotten Birds of America exhibit looked more realistic than this shit. The Hardy Boys accost Matt, who tells them he knows they aren't "here to buy a house."

Dean takes the lead by creepily asking Matt about his love for bugs and about whether he heard about Linda's death. Matt is like, "Yeah, so what? And yes, I know" to which Dean gives a hilarious Ice Man teeth chomp when relating that she died of "spider bites." Chomp. Matt gives him a look like, okay dude, whatever. Sam takes over here, deciding to go with Good Cop over Crazy Cop. When Matt realizes what they are accusing him of, he, too, starts spilling beans in a conveniently non sequitur-ish fashion, saying unprompted that "That wouldn't explain the bee attack or the gas company guy." He continues to do The Hardy Boys's investigative work for them by telling them that "something is happening with the insects" and asking them to come with him.

As they walk to Matt's secret spot, Sam decides to take this opportunity to bring up ONCE AGAIN his daddy issues: "So if you knew about this bug stuff, why didn't you tell your dad?" Matt tells him he's tried, but "Larry doesn't listen to me" because he's disappointed in his freak son. Sam allows his bangs to get the better of his own family feeling and empathizes, "I hear ya." Dean is in the background, looking pretty tired of Sam's shtick. Sam tells Matt that in two years he'll be able to go to college and get away from his dad. Which, bad advice. Dean finally busts out with a "What kind of advice is that? Kid should stick with his family." Which, also bad advice. And here is the part where Matt should probably want to get out of there, because these two are obviously heading quickly for "Squeal like a pig" territory.

The three come upon a clearing, and I think it is safe to say that here, Buzzing Intensifies. There's a creepy fishbowl pan of the grey sky, and then Matt wonks about keeping track of insect populations. I mean, when is this kid going to get it through his thick skull that he is disgracing his family with his "AP" "Science"? The gist of it: all kinds of bugs are congregating in this clearing, but he doesn't know why. Sam notices a suspicious-looking, um, pile of dirt. Why is everybody zeroing in on suspicious piles of dirt? When was the last time you were suspicious of a pile of dirt? They walk over and find that it is another sinkhole covered in worms. Dean fishes around in the damp hole (hee) with a stick (hee hee) and finds a bone (hee hee hee). A human skull, to be exact.Commercials. In the promo spot leading back into the show, Jensen Ackles is wearing a t-shirt that says "Straight Shooter" and rolling around and kicking at the screen. I love him.

Get thee to a Department of Anthropology, boys! As my captioning tells me, "Rock music plays," which makes me think my mom is typing them up. The Metallicar chugs onto a college campus. A coed walks in front of the car in a mini-skirt and Uggs-ish boots, and Dean ogles her. Nice try, pal. Sam takes off his coat to drape over the box of skulls he pulls out of the back seat. The brothers discuss their discovery of "a bunch of skeletons in an unmarked grave" and whether the bug attacks are due to "some pissed-off spirits." As they continue walking, Dean asks Sam how he could tell Matt to "just ditch his family like that." Sam responds that he just knows "what the kid is going through," when Dean suggests that maybe he should have told him "to respect his old man, how's that for advice?" Sam tells Dean that he knows this is about their own dad. Apparently, Sam feels he was a disappointment to his father because he never wanted to go bow hunting or hustle pool, and then helpfully summarizes the irony for the lobotomized among us: "Which in our whacked-out family made me the freak." Dean jokes that Sam was "kinda like the blonde chick on The Munsters." Then we find out that their dad threw Sam out of the house when he got a full-ride scholarship.

The shots have gotten tighter on Padalecki's and Ackles's faces, which is nice. Dean tells Sam that he remembers the fight about college, but remembers "a few choice phrases coming out of your mouth" as well. Sam confesses that if they "do find Dad, I don't know if he'll even want to see me." Dean gives Sam a real comeuppance when he tells him that their father wasn't disappointed, just scared about letting his son go off where he couldn't protect him. Then the tear bomb: apparently Dad used to "swing by Stanford whenever he could" to make sure Sam was safe. Jensen's lips are pink as a dew-dropped rose in this scene.

Inside, the boys meet with an anthropology professor. And because that is inherently boring, I'll just give you the outlines: the bones are 170 years old, probably Native American, probably Native Americans who had been "relocated," they should go to the Euchee tribe in Sapulpa to find out more.

Smokum peace pipe, man, The Hardy Boys are off to an Injun reservation! You know how on The A-Team, the theme song would get reworked during the weekly montage scene according to what kind of person or group they were getting ready to fight? Like, if they were messing with the Chinese mafia, it was The A-Team theme song done in pan flutes and gongs? Or if they were taking on Latin American drug runners, the theme would have a samba beat to it? Well, Supernatural is clearly taking a page from that book here, as the boys drive onto the reservation accompanied by rattlesnake percussion and thumping Native drums.The Ambiguously Gay Duo walks into a bar and meets an old Indian. That sounds like the start of one of your uncle's offensive jokes, but it isn't. They find "Joe Whitetree" inside (all right, it's actually a diner) playing solitaire. Dean starts off with, "We're students from the university," to which Joe replies, "No you're not, you're lying." Oh, Pale Face, you are so transparent. Sam takes over the questioning, and Joe says he likes Sam because he isn't a liar. Face hard, Dean!

Sam tells Joe that something bad is happening at Oasis Plains, and they think it has to do with some old bones they found (hee). Joe tells the story that his grandfather's grandfather told him. Oh, the Injuns, always with the hearsay. So there was this village, and a cavalry full of bad guys, and "on a night when the moon and the sun were equals" the cavalry raided the village six nights in a row, killing everyone in it. On that sixth night, the chief made a dying vow that "No white man would ever tarnish this land again. Nature would rise up and protect the valley…and on the night of the sixth day, none would survive."

The boys leave the diner and do a few calculations, figuring out that the gas company guy was killed on Friday March 20 (by the way, the last time March 20 was a Friday was 1998), and that that was the Spring Equinox, "the night when the moon and the sun were equals." All this means that tonight is "the sixth night" and anyone in Oasis Plains is S.O.L., Native Americanly-speaking. And because there is nothing as great as emphasizing numbers and details in this way and then completely failing to follow through with any sort of plot accuracy, let us now note that it is still full daylight, in March, before Daylight Savings goes into effect, and so probably around 4 or 5 PM. The boys are 60 or so miles from Oasis Plains, and must get back to warn Larry and his family. Off they go.

Matt is in his front yard observing some crazy cockroaches spewing out of the ground. Am I the only one that finds it cute and heartwarming that this show could only get their hands on beetles and cockroaches for their bug swarms? Aw, the poor little show that could!

Commercials. The Hardy Boys are in the Metallicar still, even though it is majorly nighttime now. Like, how slow were they driving? Dean is on the phone with Larry, pretending to be Travis from the gas company and urges Larry to get his family out of the house. This doesn't work because, being in charge of a housing development, Larry knows Travis. Smooth move, Ex-Lax. As if Larry wouldn't be on a first-name basis with the freaking guy who was the sole witness to a horrific death that occurred on his property just a week ago. Sam grabs the phone to call Matt and explains the icky bug situation, which Matt instantly believes because of the Cockroach-a-palooza happening in his backyard. Matt is concerned about his family not believing this cockroach-a-mamie story, but Sam tells him that he just has to make them believe. At this point Dean grabs the phone to tell Matt that "under no circumstances are you to tell the truth….tell him you've got a sharp pain in your right side, and you've got to go to the hospital." Quick thinker, that one. The Metallicar zooms up to the house, but Larry is waiting for them. Apparently he's heard about them showing their bones to his son in the woods. And I know that joke is getting old, but it's just too good to let go. Apparently Matt has told his dad the truth -- and this whole truth/liar theme? Stoopid -- and he, surprise! doesn't believe any of them. Sam, helpfully proving my point about how fucked the timeline of this night already is, specifically notes that it is "12 AM." So, it took them six or seven hours to get back from the reservation? Wha? Why have him specify? Why? Why? Why? Leave the details vague, and you can get away with a lot, plot-wise. Make them this specific and YOU SIMPLY SEND ME TO THE MENTAL WARD.

They continue to jaw on about being or not being in danger on the front steps until they hear the swarm approaching and realize there isn't time to go inside to get the wife before leaving. I'm surprised they didn't just take off and leave her there. As if any of them cares about that pair of tits. They all rush inside, and engage in a number of completely asinine swarm-prevention activities such as gently tucking a single towel between the front door and the floor. The phone is dead and there's no cell phone reception because of the swarm. Sam suggests that they stuff up all the holes (hee) in the house, the power goes out, and things are starting to get pretty dicey in there. A great shot of Jensen Ackles looking confused. As in, confused about how he found himself in such a shitty episode. The Acks goes wandering into the kitchen and grabs a travel-sized can of bug killer. Seriously, I think this is the twelve-ounce mini-can or something.

When the group hears thumping, they realize that it is the flue in the fireplace, which quickly gives way to a swarm of bees shooting into the house. So, obviously they all head upstairs. To the attic. Instead of keeping a number of wooden barriers -- walls, ceilings, doors, etcetera -- between them and the bugs, they've opted for flimsy plywood and thin tar shingles. Great. And, AND! On their way up the stairs, Dean is using his tiny can of bug spray as a miniature flame thrower. A flame thrower shooting approximately six inches of flame at a swarm that was large and strong enough to bust through an iron flue. The stupidity of this conclusion is giving me epilepsy.

So we all know what happens . They spend about two minutes in the attic, during which time termites eat through the wood, and fly into the attic but are not followed by any other sort of bug, all while Jensen Ackles uses his tiny flame thrower to pathetically impotent effect, and then it is sunrise and the curse is broken. What? WHAT?

The Metallicar pulls up in front of Larry's house. A tiny moving van is parked outside and Larry tells them that the development "has been put on hold while the government investigates those bones. But I'm going to make damn sure no one ever lives here again." Um, okay, whatever. Larry isn't upset about his "financial disaster" because he was able to bond with his son over it all. Um, okay, whatever. Matt is in the driveway ditching his bug collection and tells Sam that bugs weird him out now. Sam says, "Yeah, I should hope so," and then walks away. Um, okay, WHATEVER.

The brothers sit on the hood of the car, and Sam gets choked up telling Dean he wants to find Dad and apologize to him. Strings of I Miss My Daddy fade into some rockin' Scorpions as the brothers get in the car and hit the road. When will The WB figure out that I would happily watch an hour of these two driving around to Def Leppard and Scorpions, and just give me that? That is the true mystery of this show.
