"Agents Page, Plant, and Smith FBI." Sam, Dean, and Maia held up their badges.
"Gentlemen, lady, what brings you by?" the coroner asked.
"We need to see Amber Greer's body," Sam explained.
"Really? What for?"
"The police report said something clawed through her skull?" Dean asked more than stated.
"You didn't read the autopsy report that I emailed out this morning?"
"W-we had, uh, server issues." Sam lied.
The coroner nodded leading them to Amber Greer's body. "Are you sure you don't want to step outside?" He turned to Maia.
"I'm sure." The blonde gave a fake smile.
The coroner only nodded in response before pulling the body out and uncovering it.
"When they brought her in we thought she was attacked by a wolf or something."
"Or something." Dean agreed.
"But we were wrong." The coroner picked up an evidence bag to show the trio.
"Is that a-"
"It's a press-on nail. We found it in her temporal lobe." The coroner interrupted Sam.
"Is that even possible?" The younger Winchester questioned.
"Wait, are you--you're saying that she did this to herself?" Dean asked.
"Uh-huh. She scratched her brains out. It'd take hours, and it's hurt like Hell, but sure-- it's possible." The coroner confirmed.
"How?" Maia asked, skeptical.
"Pick your acronym-- OCD, PCP. It all spells 'crazy'. My guess-- some kind of phantom itch. I mean an extreme case, but..."
Maia glared at the coroner, taking offense from his words. The man essentially just called her crazy. Dean noticed and gave her a nudge as a silent way of telling her to knock it off.
"Phantom itch?" Sam was the skeptic now.
"Yeah. All it takes is someone talking about an itch-- or thinking about one, even-- and suddenly you can't stop scratching." The coroner recovered the body and put it away.
"Thanks, doc." Sam gave the coroner and appreciative nod before he left.
Turning to leave, Sam was scratching his chin while Dean scratched his ear. The two brothers shared an awkward and uncomfortable look.
Maia stifled a laugh, "Really?"
"Shut up." Dean retorted, heading towards the exit.

Sam Dean and Maia were at the home Amber Greer's body was found at. Sam sat in the living room with the parents of the kid Amber was babysitting while Dean and Maia looked around for signs of the supernatural.
"Okay, now, some of these questions might seem a bit odd but please just bear with me. Have you noticed any cold spots in the house?" Sam asked the parents.
"Uh... no." The father answered.
Dean walked up to the doorframe as Sam continued to ask questions.
"Whatcha lookin' for?" The parents' son asked.
"Don't know yet," Dean admitted, walking up to the boy. "It's, uh... Jimmy, right? So Amber was your babysitter?"
