Official WB Description
Sam (Jared Padalecki)
and Dean (Jensen Ackles) investigate
a series of mysterious drownings
written off as suicides. They discover the spirit is
an angry little boy with the power to travel through
water who is taking revenge on certain town inhabitants
for a dark secret buried long ago. Dean forms a bond
with a young boy who seems to have the power of premonition.
Full Synopsis
LAKE MANITOC, WISCONSIN- A young girl is
talking to her dad and brother before going out swimming
in the nearby lake. The girl dives in, but soon gets spooked
by something she can't see. Suddenly, something drags
her below the water and drowns her.
THE LYNNWOOD INN- Dean is looking at newpaper reports (and
the waitress hehe) He shows
Sam an article about a girl named Sophie Carlton who drowned
in Lake Manitoc. Sam is angry Dean is looking at new cases instead of finding
their dad. Dean insists they will find their dad, but
there's nothing wrong with killing everything bad along
the way. Sam reluctantly agrees.
CARLTON RESIDENCE- Dean and Sam
visit the dead girl's dad and brother under the guise
of US Wildlife Service officials. (You gotta love the Star
Wars reference names 'Ford' and Hammill'
that Dean gives) Sophie's brother tells them she was dragged
down under the lake and didin't
seem to struggle. Sam asks if
he can speak to the father, Billy, but he's too distraught.
SHERIFF'S OFFICE- Sam and Dean queation the local sheriff about
how many missing persons there have been involving the
lake, still under the guise of wildlife officials. Apparently,
it's happened a lot, but there are never any bodies. The
sheriff says the local dam is leaking anyway, and the
lake in question will soon drain as they can't get a grant
to fix it. The sheriff's daughter, Andrea appears with
her son Lucas, but he won't speak and shy's away from the brothers. The sheriff says he's been through
a lot but doesn't elaborate. Dean asks if Andrea can show
them to a hotel and she does. He tries flirting with her
on the way, but she brushes him off.
HOTEL-Sam looks up drownings on the lake on his laptop and says they've been
happening over 35 years but the deaths are getting more
frequent. He also finds Lucas' dad was one of the victims
and Lucas saw it all happen.
AT THE PARK- Sam and Dean
go to see Andrea and Lucas. Dean talks to Lucas and tells
him he knows what it's like to lose someone at his age
and to actually see it happen. Lucas won't answer back,
but draws Dean a picture of a house. Andrea explains he's
been silent since his dad died.
CARLTON RESIDENCE- Sophie's dad won't talk to Will
his son. Will decides to try and get his dad to eat and
goes to prepare/clean some fish. As he's working,
the color of the water changes and the sink begins to
fill up. Will thinks there is a blockage and sticks his
hand it, only to be dragged down until his head is in
the water and he drowns.
HOTEL- Sam comes in and
tells Dean Will has been drowned in a sink. They conclude
what ever is in the water/lake knows the lake is draining
and its running out of time to
get its revenge. They figure there will be more deaths
and that Mr Carlton is somehow
involved as he's now lost two children to it.
BY THE LAKE- Sam and Dean go to visit Lucas and after dean tellshim about his mom dying and how he was afraid, but learned
to be brave, Lucas gives them a second picture. This time
its a house near a white church, and a young boy wearing a
cap with a bike.
IN THE CAR- The brothers discuss
how Lucas could be drawing things relevant to what's going
on. They decide they need to find the house in the new
picture, and fast.
WHITE CHURCH- Sam and Dean
find the church, and the house in the picture is just
across the road. They visit and ask if a little boy lives
there with a red bike, and the old woman who answers the
door tells them not for 35years. It seems Peter vanished
all that time ago and the cops never did find him or a
body. Dean spots a photo of Peter with Billy Carlton.
BY THE LAKE- Billy talks to the lake. He says he understands now what
he has to do.
IN THE CAR/LAKESIDE- Sam and Dean
think Billy killed Peter. They pay him a visit, but he's
already taken a boat out on the lake. The brothers shout
him to come back, but the boat abruptly explodes.
SHERIFF'S OFFICE- Sam and Dean walk
in with the sheriff. Andrea and Lucas are there, and Lucas grabs
Dean, obviously upset. The sheriff (her dad) tells Andrea
to take Lucas home, and then takes Sam and Dean inside.
He tells them he know they're
not wildlife officials- he checked and that they could
be implicated in Billy's death. He gives them a choice,
get arrested or leave town. They agree to leave.
ANDREA'S HOME- Lucas is drawing
and Andrea decides to take a bath.
ON THE ROAD- Sam and Dean are
in their car when dean turns back to return to town. He's
worried about Lucas and doesn't think the case is
over somehow.
ANDREA'S HOME- Andrea runs a bath
and gets in. She relaxes and closes her eyes, not noticing
the running water is turning a strange color. Suddenly,
a force drags her below the water. She screams and Lucas
pounds on the door unable to get in to help. Luckily,
Sam and Dean arrive. Dean kicks the bathroom door in and
Sam pulls Andrea from the bath water before she drowns.
NEXT MORNING- Andrea tells Sam
she thinks she's going crazy as she heard a voice say
'Come play with me' Sam coonsoles her while Dean goes through some old photo albums.
He spots an old school picture of Andrea's dad with Peter.
Dean then suggests Andrea's dad was probably involved
too, and that's why she was a target. Lucas then goes
a little weird and leads them outside toa plot of land. Sam and Dean dig there and find Peter's
bike. Andrea's dad appears and holds them at gunpoint.
Dean accuses him of helping Billy carlton kill Peter 35 years previously and burying his bike. The sheriff
denies it, but Andrea gets him to confess. Dean says
they need to destroy Peter's remains, but they can't because Andrea's
dad and Billy bullied Peter and
accidentally drowned him, letting the body sink in the
lake. Dean says they need to get sheriff and everyone
away from the lake, but just then they spot Lucas near
the water and a ghostly hand pulls him in. Dean and
Sam dive in after him but find nothing. Knowing what he
must do, Andrea's dad gives himself up to Peter's
spirit. Peter drags him under the water and Sam and Dean
try to save him to no avail. dean
does surface after awhile with Lucas- he looks dead.
IN TOWN- Sam and Dean are
by there car and Sam tells Dean 'You can't save everyone.'
At this point, you think Lucas died, but just then he
runs up with his mum, Andrea. He's talking now and has
made the Winchester boys sandwiches for their road trip. Andrea thanks them both for
saving Lucas, and Dean learns
Lucas the important phrase 'Zepplin
Rules!' Then, the Winchester boys ride out of town, rock
music playing...
