We were driving down the road. Sam was in the back and I had my head on Dean's shoulder. A woman then ran out in the middle of the road.

"Stop!" she screamed. The car stopped short of her. "You've got to help me." she went to the passenger's side and pounded on the window. I scooted away from Dean and rolled down the window.

"Please. Please!" she said.

"All right, all right. Calm down, calm down. Tell us what happened." I said.

We had parked the Impala by the road and all four of us were standing around it. The woman was telling her story.

"I-I swerved, a-And we crashed. And when I came to, the car was wrecked and my husband was missing. I went looking for him, but that's when the man from the road, he... he started chasing me." Molly said.

"Did he look like he lost a fight with a lawn mower?" Dean asked.

"How did you know that?" Molly asked.

"Lucky guess." Dean said.

"Ma'am, what's your name?" Sam asked.

"Molly. Molly Mcnamara." she said. The boys exchanged a look with me.

"I think maybe you should come with us. We'll take you back into town." Sam said.

"I can't. I have to find David. He might have gone back to the car." Molly said.

"We should get you somewhere safe first. Then Dean, Ali, and I will come back. We'll look for your husband." Sam said.

"No. I'm not leaving here without him. Would you just take me back to my car, please?" Molly asked.

"Of course. Come on." Sam said.

The Impala parked by the woods near the crash site. We all got out, Molly led us into the woods.

"It's right over there." Molly said. We came upon the crash site, but the car was gone. "I don't understand. I'm sure this is where it was. W-We hit that tree right there. This... this doesn't make any sense." She went to investigate, out of earshot.

"Dean, we got to get out of here. Greeley could show up at any second." Sam said.

"What are you gonna tell her?" I asked.

"The truth?" Sam asked.

"She's gonna take off running in the other direction." Dean said.

"How would you know?" Sam asked.

"She did." Dean said and motioned to me.

"I saw the damn thing and still ran, thinking you were all crazy. Your dad found me behind a bar dumpster." I said.

"I know it sounds crazy, but I crashed into that tree. I don't know who could've taken it. It was totaled. Please. You have to believe me." Molly said.

"Molly, listen, we do believe you. But that's why we want to get you out of here." I said.

"What about David? Something must have happened. I have to get to the cops." Molly said.

"Cops... that's a great idea. We'll take you down to the station ourselves. So just come with us. It's the best way we can help you and your husband." Dean said.

"Okay." Molly said. She came back up.

We drove down the road, Molly in the backseat with Sam. Dean had his free hand over the seat behind me and I was drawing shapes on my shoulder.

"We're supposed to be in Lake Tahoe." Molly said.

"You and David?" I asked.

"It's our five-Year anniversary." Molly said.
