Sam and Ophelia are in the kitchen and sitting diagonal from each other. Sam has coffee and is on his laptop while Ophelia is eating some Eggos, the lights off and only the hallway light providing light. Libby fell asleep with Ophelia and Nathan last night so they're both comforted by the fact that if Libby is to wake up from a nightmare Nathan will be there for her.

"Morning, sunshines." Dean walks in.

"Hey." Sam greets, Ophelia just giving a lazy wave, her mouth full of waffle.

"What you looking at? Porn? Sex tapes? Nip slips?" Dean asks.

Sam looks at Ophelia who is rolling her eyes.

"The internet is more than just naked people. You do know that, right?" Sam asks.

"Not my internet." Dean says.

"You're disgusting." Ophelia tells her dad as he sits next to her.

"All right. Check this out." Sam speaks up before an argument can break out. "So, this girl -- her body was found just outside Big Creek State Park in Iowa. Uh, covered in bite marks. The police are saying it's an animal attack."

"But...?" Dean urges.

"But I did some digging, and I found out that there weren't a lot of bodies, but a lot of people do go missing in that park. Look at this. Park ranger back in '06. A poacher in '98. And on and on and on. I mean, I've only gone back to 1943, and I've already found 54 missing people."

"Wow." Dean comments.

"Yeah." Sam mumbles.

"Yeah. Sounds like our kind of thing. You sure you're up for it? I mean, I know you wanted to take some time." Dean says.

"No, I-I'm-- I'm good. Honestly, I-I'm good."

"All right. Well, let's hit it."

"You got it. I'll grab Cas."

"Mm. He actually left."

"What?"

"Early this morning." Dean says.

"Why?" Sam asks.

"I don't know. Something about being cooped up in the bunker for a few weeks. We all need to stretch our legs. I get it." Dean says.

"All right. Uh, then, Jack." Sam says.

"Uh... I don't want Jack on this." Dean says.

"I thought you said Donatello gave him the all clear?" Sam asks.

"Yeah, he did. And I'm-I'm sure he's good. But... Jack's got his mojo back. His powers have gotten us in trouble in the past -- the security guard. So I just want to make sure that, you know, he's right before we put him back out there."

"Yeah. Yeah. Uh, Oph, you and Nate wanna go?" Sam asks.

"Wow. I love being your third option." She sarcastically remarks.

"I-- okay, I assumed you were gonna go, but now I'm asking. Do you want to?" Sam asks.

"Yeah, sure." Ophelia shrugs.

"Will Nathan want to?" Sam asks.

"Depends on Libby." Ophelia states. "If she stays, he's probably gonna stay. If she goes, he'll go."

"I thought he was your boyfriend." Dean says.

"Very funny." Ophelia sarcastically smiles. "He is, he's just... still stressed over her after her major panic attack thing only he was here for. He's... overprotective and over worried big brother Nathan."
