Season 1, Episode 3: Cat's in the Cradle and the Silver Spoon

  Previous Episode Sometime in the hours before dawn, a new suite of rooms added itself on to the A-frame at the end of Wanek Way.  Well, it was new in the sense that it hadn't existed the night before, but the worn wooden flooring, dated wallpaper, and jalousie windows were hardly new construction.  Anyone not in on the joke would never know the rooms hadn't been a part of the house all along.   The arrival was almost silent, marked only by the typical faint creaks and sighs of an aging house settling more comfortably on its foundations.  The whole quiet, gentle process went unnoticed by the slumbering residents of the house...Even the newest occupant sleeping in the bedroom itself. John Winchester woke with a gasp and pushed himself upright, on the verge of panic.  Where was he?  What  was he?  Not alive, he reminded himself as the initial shock wore off.   Even if he felt very much alive, his heart pounding.   Head...

Season 1, Episode 1: A Long Way from Home

Bobby Singer made himself wait until he'd picked up dinner, checked into the motel, and cracked open a cold beer before he dialed the phone.  He couldn't stop himself from tensing as the phone rang.  What if she didn't pick up?

"Bobby.  Good to hear your voice.  I take it Caleb skipped town once he knew you were on to him?"

Season 1, episode 6: A Day In The Life

Previous Episode First Episode After a couple of hours on the road, Ellen and John stopped for lunch. "What's your plan for hunting this ghost?"  John asked.   He'd hunted a few times with Ellen's husband Bill, but never with Ellen herself.  She'd been busy running the roadhouse and caring for Jo, who'd been just a little girl at the time.   The thought inevitably flooded John's mind with guilt, but he kept his expression neutral.  Ellen hadn't brought up the past.  If she wasn't going to broach the subject of Bill's death, then he wouldn't either.   "Don't have a plan,"  Ellen said.    John couldn't help it;  his eyebrows arched in surprise.    "I figure you can handle a vengeful spirit with one hand tied behind your back,"  Ellen went on.  "Meanwhile, I've got a hunt of my own to attend to.  This is where we part ways for a day or two."    "I knew there was something off about this...
