Nate Winchester’s Remix of Supernatural 9.15 – “#THINMAN”
Confession time loyal reader: I had been studying the transcript of this episode provided by the always awesome Supernatural wiki when I uncovered a terrible, earth-shattering secret! It’s not obvious but through complicated and mystical techniques, I was able to unearth these deleted scenes from the episode, with some parts from the transcript left in to help you grasp context. Are you ready for the episode… you didn’t see?
 |
So, what does this mean about us? |
 |
It means… It’s complicated. *walks off with ED staring after him* |
 |
*walks up to the Winchesters* Can I get a ride from you guys? |
 |
Yeah, sure. |
|
*looks in the rear-view mirror* Harry, you okay? |
|
Yeah. I mean, no. |
|
You roll with a guy so many years, you start to think he’s always gonna be next to you. Like, when you’re old and you’re drinking on the porch, he’ll be in that other rocking chair. And then something happens, and you realize that other chair has gone empty. |
|
You know what I mean? |
| –EARLIER– | |
 |
Heeeeeere’s SAMMY! |
|
And Dean! |
 |
*ZAP* |
|
oh DAMMIT! |
|
That’s been… three episodes in a row now? |
|
Four! *is unconscious* |
|
Son of a– *is unconscious* |
 |
*looking at the warehouse from afar* Hah, six seconds. |
 |
*hands a $20 over to ed* Dammit, I thought they’d be wearing helmets by now for sure. Rescue time? |
|
Not yet. Let them stew, figure out how better off they are with each other than without. Then we save them. |
|
With C4? |
|
As a last resort. Let’s use a distraction in two minutes. Should give them time to escape and “save themselves”. |
|
Letting them think they did it on their own. |
|
Exactly. Just like when we slipped the Hell opening ritual to Death to pass on to them. |
|
The look on your face when Sam threw himself in there… |
|
Never again will I give them credit on being smart enough to figure something out. |
|
Relax, Ed. If they didn’t screw things up, they wouldn’t be the Winchesters. |
| –EARLIER– | |
|
I’m good. All right. I think I’m just gonna have to staple it when we get back to the motel. |
|
*turns to ED.* We were right, Ed! Thinman’s real. |
 |
*quietly* Yeah. |
|
*running up from the woods* Some fresh tires tracks back over there. I took some photos. |
|
What for? |
|
Because that car might belong to whoever knifed you. |
|
Well, whoever cut me was Thinman, and Thinman doesn’t drive. It was Thinman, jackass! I mean, I shouldn’t have to connect the dots for you guys. I figured, you know, you’re both intelligent, m-maybe. |
|
Um, Harry. |
|
What? |
| –EARLIER– | |
|
*sitting in the car, looking at some dark, foreboding woods* Our friendly neighborhood cosplayer ran in there. |
|
*preparing his equipment* We should call in one of our reapers and let them finish this guy off. |
|
No, Harry, the more we use our “rogue” reapers the more suspicions are raised. We’re lucky the bros never did question why it took them a week to find what the kings of Heaven and Hell spent over a year searching for. At least Ajay did a good job faking his ‘death’. |
|
We shouldn’t even have this cosplayer. |
|
Well if we could predict everything, Abaddon wouldn’t be running loose now would she? |
|
My chronoculations were flawless! But somebody didn’t tell me Dean had met Eliot Ness. *glare* |
|
And that’s why we fix these messes the hard way now! You got the plan, right? |
|
*nods* Dick around a few minutes – flush out the thinman – act shocked when you reveal the “truth”. |
|
All the way back to and inside the hotel room. No telling if they’ve bugged it or will be listening in |
|
*gets out of the car* How long do you need? |
|
*calculates it in his head* 12 minutes. |
|
You’ve got 8. I’d rather not get stabbed tonight. |
|
Why? |
|
Because it hurts! |
|
I don’t make any promises… |
 |
Game faces. |
 |
Game faces. |
| –EARLIER– | |
|
*sarcastically* Ah, the Winchesters. Yay. |
|
Says nobody. |
|
Ever. |
|
All right, shut up and listen. This is how it’s gonna go. You two clowns are gonna get into that mystery machine outside, and you’re gonna leave town or I’m gonna put holes in your knees. |
 |
Can I get you guys anything? Something, uh… |
|
Uh, we’re ready for the bill. |
 |
Look, we’re the only two extras seen AND given lines beyond the victim’s family and the police, so one of us is the villain, and the other is the victim. |
|
Right. Sorry, I’ll go get my knife. |
|
Ahh, first of all, you guys don’t scare us. |
|
Not at all. |
|
*lifting his shirt to reveal a gun in his waistband* Say, “hola” to my little pistola. |
|
Am I supposed to be impressed with that treasure trail or the lady gun you got hiding in your, uh, pants there? |
|
Uh…Both? |
|
Look, whether you like it or not, we are handling this situation. |
|
Yup. |
| –EARLIER– | |
|
*sitting in a car on the outskirts of town, talking into a fancy earbud* We have no idea what we’re doing. |
|
*sitting in a car on the opposite outskirts of town, talking into an identical earbud* They’ll be here, trust me. |
|
Aren’t they still catfighting? |
|
Just like Steve Rogers and Tony Stark do off and on. And just like those two they’ll come together when lives are at stake. |
|
*spies something through his binoculars* Speak of the devils… Here is the lovely Miss Impala now, looking stunning in black as always. |
 |
*standing in a large, fancy control room, wearing a headset* Why if I didn’t know better, I’d be jealous. |
|
It’s only lust, baby, she means nothing to me. |
|
Snap out of it Padme, Anakin. Is it just the two of them? |
|
Confirmed. The littlest angel won’t be joining us tonight. |
|
Damn, and he loves being in episodes too. So we’ve got the seeds planted, Harry I’ll meet you at the diner. |
|
Game faces everyone! |
|
On my way. Maggie, what’s my cover? |
|
Texting you now. Her name is Dana. |
|
*glances at the phone* Details about her? |
|
You two were engaged. Now you’re facebook-stalking her. |
|
Oh come on, nobody’s going to believe I was engaged to a girl that good looking. |
|
So you think she’s prettier than me… |
|
*cough* Touche Mrs Spangler. |
|
*smiling* Good luck, hon. Try not to get stabbed. Going radio dark in 3… 2… |
|
Game faces. |
| –NOW– | |
|
*standing beside the ghostfacer van, parked off the side of a desolate road* “It’s complicated?” Damn man, way to sell it. |
|
Doing what needs to be done. *approaching the van* I thought the gunshot was my best improv. You like how it increased the parallels between Sam and me. |
|
*hands harry a root beer* Not bad at all. I don’t think we could have made it more obvious to them. … Think they’ll figure it out? |
|
*takes a drink of the soda* If they weren’t so thickheaded, they wouldn’t be Winchesters. |
|
Yeah… some are meant to be heroes. |
|
And some are meant to help them be so. |
|
*pause* Well back to work. *climbs into the van* |
|
*climbs into the van* |
|
How’s the stab wound? |
|
All better. I guess Death’s still keeping us Highlanders. |
|
Told you it would be all right. |
|
It still hurts. |
Aw shucks, thanks for this, it definitely put a smile on my face on a bleak day. I like your version very much and wish I could see that one. 🙂
Is it wrong that i would totally back a finale that reveals that the Ghostfacers are the real secret heroes working in the background to make the Winchesters loook good?
@amyh – If it is, I don’t want to be right. 😉
I dont know nate, maybe because i keep waiting for Sam and Dean to turn the tables on the Angels and Demons. I keeep thinking…..maybe this year they will pull a “Sting” ala Robert Rredford and Paul Newman. i so want the boys to be pulling the strings for a change.
HA! That would be great! I see more “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,” but J2 do an excellent job following in Newman and Redford’s footsteps. And I too like a good buddy comedy. 😉
I really enjoyed the imaginative approach to rethinking this episode! Some of your lines were priceless!
