MOTEL ROOM

♪ Heat of the moment ♪

Sam and Lana's eyes snapped open and they sat up in bed.

♪ Telling you what your heart is ♪

"Rise and shine, Sammy, Lana!" Dean called as he sat on the other bed and tied his shoes.

Rose was humming to herself.

Sam frowned. "Dude. Asia?"

"Come on, you two love this song and you know it," Dean replied.

"Yeah, and if I ever hear it again, I'm gonna kill myself."

Dean turned up the volume. "What? Sorry, couldn't hear you."

♪ It was the heat of the moment ♪

Dean started bopping along and Sam shook his head while Lana sighed and Rose danced to the music.

♪ Heat of the moment. Heat of the moment. Showed in your eyes ♪

In the bathroom, Dean gargled loudly.

"Whenever you're ready, Dean," Sam said.

Dean pulled out a black bra. "This yours? Lana, is this yours?"

Lana grabbed it with an embarrassed expression while Sam glared.

Dean laughed, rummaged in the bag and pulled out a gun. "Bingo."

He went past Sam and Lana to the door as Dean asked, "Now who's ready for some breakfast?"

Rose raised her hand. "Me!"

DINER

The door chimed as Sam, Dean, Lana and Rose entered.

The cashier gave Mr. Pickett some change. "Drive safely now, Mr. Pickett."

"Yeah, yeah," Mr. Pickett replied.

The cook in the background called, "Order up."

Sam, Dean, Rose and Lana found a booth.

At the counter, a waitress said, "Can't stay unless you order something, Cal. You know the rules."

Cal passed her some change. "Some coffee."

Dean noticed a poster on the wall. "Hey. Tuesday. Pig-in-a-poke."

"You even know what that is?" Sam asked.

A waitress, Doris, walked up to their booth. "You boys and girls ready?"

"Yes," Dean replied. "I'll have the special, side of bacon and a coffee."

"Couple pancakes and a tea," Lana told Doris. "And for the little girl, waffles and apple juice."

"Make it two coffees and a short stack," Sam said.

"You got it," Doris answered.

Dean looked at his brother. "I'm telling you, Sam, Lana, this job's small fry. We should be spending our time hunting down Bela."

"Okay, sure, let's get right on that - where is she again?" Sam retorted.

"Shut up."

"Look, believe me, I want to find her as bad as you two do. In the meantime, we have this." He pulled out some papers.

"All right, so this professor."

The headline on the newspaper clipping read 'MISSING - DEXTER HASSELBACK LAST SEEN IN BROWARD, FLORIDA'

"Dexter Hasselback was passing through town last week when he vanished."

"Last known location?"

"His daughter says he was on his way to visit the Broward County Mystery Spot," Lana answered.
