Dean and I walked over to Sam, He was playing pool drunk... and losing.
"Excuse me. My brother's a little sauced to be making bets." Dean said as we walked up.
"He insisted." Brian said.
"Yeah, but you've already taken, what, two bills off him? I'm just saying." Dean said.
"Hey, shut up, Dean. I'm fine." Sam said.
"No, you're not fine. You're drunk!" I said.
"Let's make it five hundred." Sam said.
"Five hundred?" Dean yelled.
"Sure." Brian said. Sam put the money on the table.
"Five hundred. Your break." Brian said. Sam raised his eyebrows at us to show us he was fine. He suddenly saw something on the other side of the bar.
"Keep the money." Sam said. He put the cue down and walked away.
"Keep the money? What –" Dean said. We looked at eachother. Then we followed Sam.
"Hey." Sam said to Ruby. I saw red.
"Well, you got a lot of nerve showing up anywhere near me." I said.
"I just have some info, and then I'm gone." she said.
"What is it?" Sam said.
"I'm hearing a few whispers." Ruby said.
"Ooh, great, demon whisperers -- that's reliable." Dean said.
"Girl named Anna Milton escaped from a locked ward yesterday. The demons seem pretty keen on finding her. Apparently, some real heavy hitters turned out for the Easter-egg hunt." Ruby said.
"Why? Who is she?" Sam asked.
"No idea. But I'm thinking that she's important, 'cause the order is to capture her alive. I just figured that whatever the deal is, you might want to find this girl before the demons do." Ruby said.
"Look, maybe we should check it out." Sam said.
"Actually, we're working a case, but thanks." Dean said.
"What case?" Ruby asked.
"Uh, we've got leads, big leads." I said.
"Sounds dangerous." Ruby said.
"Yeah, well, it sure ain't goose-chasing after some chick who, for all we know, doesn't even exist, just because you say she's important." Dean said.
"I'm just delivering the news. You can do whatever you want with it. Far as I'm concerned, I told you, I'm done." Ruby said.
"Wait, wait, wait. This hospital Anna escaped from -- it got a name?" Sam asked.
We were now driving down the road while Sam was on the phone.
"Can I get a copy of the missing persons report? Great. Okay. Thanks." Sam asked then hung up.
"Well, Anna Milton's definitely real." Sam said.
"Don't mean the case is real. And this hospital's a three-day drive." Dean said.
"We've driven further for less, Dean." Dean shook his head. "You got something to say, say it." Sam said.
"Oh, I'm saying it -- this sucks." Dean said.
"You're not pissed we're going after the girl. You're pissed Ruby threw us the tip." Sam said.
"Right. 'Cause as far as you're concerned, the hell-bitch is practically family. Yeah, boy, something major must've happened while I downstairs, 'cause I come back, and -- and you're BFF with a demon?" Dean said.
