Daphne put the key into the lock and opened the door of her house. She entered and Cas followed her inside. Zoey had come by at the hospital with some clothes, on Daphne’s request.
Daphne entered the kitchen and wasn’t surprised to see her sister sitting there.
“Hi” Zoey said, looking up from her laptop. “I see you brought Mister I don’t have a name home”
Daphne gave her sister a ‘cut it off’ look. “Zoey’s staying here for a few days” she explained to Cas. “She and Gerard are divorced and Alexia, my adorable niece, is staying with her father for the time being. Zoey doesn’t like being alone, so she keeps me company”
Cas nodded, not sure what to do or say.
“Hey, can you move? I need to do something” Daphne said to Zoey.
“Sure, it’s your house” Zoey said and she got up. Daphne sat down and pulled another chair next to her. She waved at Cas. “Come sit”
Cas walked towards her and sat down. He looked like he had been sentenced to death.
“Could you lose the face?” Zoey asked. “I see those clothes fit you well. They were our brother’s”
“You have a brother?” Cas asked curious.
“Later” Daphne said.
“I’d love to meet him” Cas continued.
“I said later” Daphne said a little sharp. She looked angry at Zoey, but she wasn’t intimidated at all.
“What? If he’s really going to hang around here, don’t you think he needs to know?” she said and she turned to Cas. “Martin died four years ago. He drowned” she said upfront. She grabbed her keys and purse. “I’m going to do some groceries. You guys need anything?”
Cas shook his head, but Daphne focused on the screen. Zoey left and Daphne conjured a smile. “Okay, here we go”
She was already on the internet and now she typed in some words. Next thing they were on a site called babynames.com. She rotated to Cas. “Ready to get a name?”

“Gerard committed suicide last night” Zoey said. “I found him hanging in our bedroom”
Daphne covered her mouth. “Oh my God, that’s…awful” she said
Daphne threw her arms around Zoey and Zoey faked a few tears and sobs. She pushed Daphne away and said she had to tell Alexia. She put her purse on the dresser, knowing Daphne would see the letter and be too curious to leave it where it is.
And indeed, a minute later, Daphne stormed outside, hysterically crying how everything was her fault.
Zoey walked back inside, trusting Daphne would need some time to calm down. She opened Daphne’s computer and connected a portable hard drive to it. The hard drive contained a fake video of Cas doing things with Alexia.
Zoey copied the video to Daphne’s files and then removed the hard drive. She closed the computer and called Alexia.
“Let’s go, Lex” she said. “We’re going to your grandparents”

The next morning.
Zoey was talking with the mortician, while Alexia was watching cartoons. At least Zoey was under the impression Alexia was watching cartoons. Until her little girl let out a shriek.
“Mommy!”
Zoey, scared something had happened to Alexia, jumped up and ran into the sitting room. Alexia was staring at the screen.
“Lex, what’s going on? You almost gave mommy a heart attack” Zoey said and swallowed a few times to calm down.
“Mommy, come look” Alexia said breathless. “Uncle Emmanuel is on TV”
Zoey rushed to the television and increased the volume.
“Last night the police arrested a man named Castiel for the abuse of a four year old girl” the newsreader said.
“Alexia, go play outside” Zoey said trembling.
“Why do they call him Castiel, mommy? His name’s Emmanuel” Alexia said confused.
“Now!” Zoey yelled and Alexia ran outside.

The door of Meg’s motel room opened and Meg stared at the door way. She was still stuck under the Key of Solomon.
“Anna told me you were innocent for a change” Sam said.
“Well, now that you’ve discovered I’m actually a saint, could you get me out of here?” Meg suggested. Sam shook his head and walked towards her, though kept a safe distance. “First I want to set a few things straight. Castiel is not going to leave prison, unless you do something. Personally, I don’t care if you killed that man or not. What I do care about is that you’re the only one who can get him out of there” Sam said.
“Why would I help him? What’s in it for me?” Meg wanted to know.
“If you do the right thing, then I guarantee you Dean and I will never try to kill you again. You’ll be off our radar for good” Sam said.
That was a tempting offer. “What do you want me to do?” she asked.
