Near the bridge, the Impala pulled to a stop.

Sam, Dean, and El got out and circled to the trunk, which Dean opened.

"Dean, El, you should stay back," Sam claimed.

"Jedi mind tricks don't work on me," El told them as she crossed her arms. "I'm going with you,"

Sam sighed and looked at Dean.

"No argument here. Had my head screwed with enough for one day," Dean said.

Sam pulled out two handguns and handed one to El; as they walked forward they were stopped by Andy, who had gotten out of the car.

"I'm coming with you," Andy said

Sam looked and shook his head no. "Andy, no,"

"If it's Tracy out there...then I'm coming,"

Tracy was unbuttoning her dress as Weber watched.

"Okay. Slower. Tracy? I want you to listen to me very carefully, okay? When we're done here, I want you to head over to the edge of the dam. Okay?" Weber told her

"Okay," Tracy said

"And when you get there, you're gonna think you can fly." Weber's voice had a demonic echo as he spoke "And you're just gonna step right off. You-you can fly, can't you?"

"Yeah. I think so," Tracy sobbed.

"You might get scared, but I want you to say that it's okay," Weber said. Tracy was sobbing. "Just tell yourself, everything is okay,"

The window behind Weber's head shattered, and El shoved a handgun in his face.

"Get out of the car!" El ordered "Now!"

"You really don't want to do this," Weber said with a demonic echo.

El backhanded him, hard.

On the other side of the car, Sam opened the door and pulled Tracy out.

"Tracy!" Andy said "Come here, come here, come here. It's okay,"

"Andy! I can't! I couldn't control myself," Tracy explained.

El opened Weber's door and pulled him out of the car. She pinned him facedown over the pavement with the gun aimed at his head. "Don't move. Don't move!"

Sam ran over to them and shoved a strip over Weber's mouth.

Andy came over and kicked Weber twice, furious.

Sam pushed him back. "No! No, Andy, let us handle this, all right?"

"I'm gonna kill you!" Andy shouted

"No! We'll handle this, we'll handle this!"

"I will kill you!"

"Andy! Listen to me! Listen to me!"

Weber stared at Tracy, who picked up a large stick and hit Sam on the back of the neck with it.

Sam went down, unconscious.

"Sam!" El exclaimed, allowing Weber to stand up and take the gun from her and throw it away.

"Tracy, stop!" Andy's voice had a demonic echo "I said STOP IT!"

Tracy dropped the stick and backed away, terrified.

Weber pulled the duct tape off his mouth.

"How did you do that?" El asked.

"Practice. Sometimes you don't need to use your words. If you have to," Weber tapped his forehead "all you need is this. Sometimes the headache's worth it,"

Andy grabbed Weber. "You're a twisted son of a bitch!"

"Back off, Andy. Or Tracy's gonna do a little flying,"

Andy turned in horror to see Tracy standing on the ledge.

"Aren't you, Trace?" Weber looked at Andy "I'm stronger than you. I can do it,"

"Andy might not be strong enough, but I sure am,"

"You've had enough free reign for the moment,"

"Okay, okay." Andy backed away, hands up. "Okay. All right, just...just please don't hurt her,"

"Don't be mad at me, okay? I know, it's, it's all wrong. I didn't mean for this to happen, it's just...Tracy? She's trying to come between us," Weber explained.

"You're insane,"

"She's garbage! Man, they all are! We can, we can push them, we can make them do whatever we want!"

"Are you really...are you really this stupid? Is it..."

"Wha..."

"I mean, you, you learn you've got a twin..."

El turned as she heard Sam start coming to "Sam..."

"...you call him up, you go out for a drink, you don't start killing people!"

"I've wanted to tell you for so long, bro." Weber said "But he didn't let me. He said I had to wait until the time was..."

"Oh no," El muttered as she felt her stir inside her mind for control.

"El?" Sam asked worriedly

"Who?" Andy asked Weber

"The man with the yellow eyes," Weber replied

El turned away from Sam and glared darkly at Weber "What are you talking about?"

"He came to me. In my dream. He said I was special. He told me he's got big plans for me. Wait 'till you see what's in store, Andy, for both of us! See, he's the one who told me that...I had a brother. A twin,"

"Why did you kill our mother?" Andy asked "Why? And why Dr. Jennings?"

"Because they split us up! They ruined our lives, Andy! We could have been together this whole time. Instead of alone. I couldn't, I couldn't let 'em do that, I couldn't let them get away with that. No,"

Weber turned, hearing something. "I see you. Bye-bye," Weber said in a demonic echo.

A gunshot went off.

Weber jerked; Andy had shot him in the back. Weber fell; Andy lowered the gun, shaking.
