** In the scene where Mara confronts Agent Henriksen and his partner, Agent Henrksen is looking at folder labeled with an FBI logo and the name "Dean Winchester". The paper Agent Henriksen seems to be studying is a warrant from California. This could refer to [[Recap/SupernaturalS01E01Pilot "Pilot" (S01, E01)]], where Dean was taken into custody and was under suspicion for the disappearances of ten men. Dean told the Sheriff his name was Music/TedNugent, but given that the Sheriff read [[Characters/SupernaturalTheWinchesters John Winchester's]] journal, he may have worked out Dean's true identity.

NOW TheTeaser starts showing the yard at Green River County Detention Center, where prisoners in orange jump suits are playing basketball, lifting weights, and playing cards for cigarettes behind a barbed wire fence. Inside the prison, four workers are in the hallway of an empty cell block. One of the workers has a blowtorch, which he is using to open the door to a sealed windowless isolation cell. As the door creaks open, the workers' breath becomes visible from a chill, and then a burst of wind rushes out of the cell scattering papers in the hallway.

!Tropes appearing in this episode:

Warden Deacon is washing his face in the prison restroom, when the clock stops at 8:32 p.m. The lights flash and Deacon's breath is visible. He turns around and sees the ghost of Nurse Glockner who throws him across the room. As officers with flashlights and guns walk between the graves, Sam and Dean cover the body in salt and lighter fluid. The ghost puts her hand over Deacon's heart and he starts to convulse. Sam drops a match into the grave. Dark veins appear on Deacon's face, and then the ghost bursts into flames. Henriksen is frustrated as they continue to search Mountainside Cemetery. As Sam and Dean hurry back to the Impala, we see the sign at this cemetery reads "Green Valley Cemetery". Mara Daniels leaves the police station and smiles before getting in her car. Agent Henriksen looks around the cemetery realizing he has lost the Winchesters. As Sam and Dean get into the Impala, they talk about the fact that they have to go deep. They drive off into the night.

* NotSoSmallRole: Savvy viewers likely realized [[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0462116/?ref_=tt_cl_t5 Jeff Kober,]] who plays Randall, would not be a TeaserOnlyCharacter. Those who recognized [[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0762560/?ref_=tt_cl_t6 Garwin Sanford,]] playing the prison warden, may have realized he was [[ChekhovsGunman someone to keep an eye on]].

''Film/TheGreatEscape'' was [[ContinuityNod previously referenced]] when Dean sent Sam a message during [[Recap/SupernaturalS02E07TheUsualSuspects "The Usual Suspects" (S02, Ep07)]].

* StrawMisogynist: Agent Henriksen dismisses the bank teller who says Sam and Dean saved her, by saying, [[HystericalWoman "She's nuts."]] He then implies Mara's observations are without merit, and [[MenActWomenAre she should let him get back to his work.]]

* WeNeedADistraction: Dean starts a fight, then later [[ApologeticAttacker apologizes to the guy he started the fight with.]]

-->'''Sam:''' Cause I got an idiot for a brother.

* WholePlotReference: This episode has a lot of similarities to ''Series/PrisonBreak'' including two bothers devoted to each other, purposefully getting incarcerated, and a friendly female lawyer who helps with research.

-->'''Sam:''' Great. [Sam slides his plate towards Dean.] Finish mine.

-->'''Dean:''' If you're as smart a P.D. as I think you are, then you can tell with just one look whether or not your clients are guilty, just like that. So I want you to look at me, really look, and you tell me – am I guilty? We're not the bad guys.

-->'''Dean:''' Save room for dessert, Tiny. Hey, I wanted to ask you, 'cause I couldn't help but notice that you are [[BigFun two tons of fun]].

-->[Dean's cellmate smirks and places his things on the top bunk.]

Dean and Sam end up incarcerated in Green River County Detention Center near [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Rock,_Arkansas Little Rock, Arkansas.]] Prisoners and a guard die from apparent heart attacks, but the Winchesters suspect the spirit of a notorious killer who died in the prison.

Sam and Dean are transported to Green River County Detention Center in shackles on a bus, and they march past the other prisoners in the yard to cat calls. Each are given an orange jump suit, a blanket, a towel, and a roll of toilet paper, and are placed in separate cells with a large scary cellmate. While they are waiting to be frisked before entering the cafeteria, Sam and Dean discuss their plan to escape once they have dealt with the ghost who has already killed 4 people in the prison. Deacon, who saved their father's life when [[Characters/SupernaturalTheWinchesters John Winchester]] and Deacon served as Marines in Vietnam, asked Sam and Dean to take care of the ghost, and Dean agreed as he felt it was their duty. In the cafeteria, Sam sniffs at his tray while Dean tucks into his and eventually Sam's chicken and spaghetti with his plastic fork. Dean explains that he suspects the ghost is the spirit of Mark Moody, a ritual murderer who reportedly died of a heart attack in the recently opened old cell block.

Sam finds Dean playing Texas hold 'em in the prison yard. Dean has won quite a pile of cigarettes. Sam tells Dean what Randall told him, and Dean tells Sam about the ghost killing Lucas. Sam says he has a plan to break into the old cell block where they suspect some of Moody's blood remains, but they do not have accelerant to burn his remains. Dean stands up with his hands full of cigarettes and asks if any of the prisoners want to make a deal.

Dean and Sam are waiting in line to get spaghetti noodles, tomato sauce, and a dinner roll. Dean takes his tray over to the table where Tiny is sitting alone. Dean starts making fun of Tiny for being fat, while Sam remains near the doors to the kitchen. Tiny punches Dean, knocking him on to the floor. Dean gets up and punches Tiny 3 times with little effect. Dean then tries a headbutt, which seems to affect Dean more than Tiny. A guard tries to break up the fight by using his baton to place Tiny in a choke hold, but Tiny grabs the guard and throws him on the table. Tiny then grabs Dean. As the rest of the guards rush forward, Sam goes into the kitchen, puts a shaker of salt in his pocket, and climbs into an air vent. Two guards manage to restrain Tiny while another guard helps Dean off the floor. The warden sends Dean and Tiny to the infirmary after hitting Dean in the stomach with his baton. Sam drops into the old cell block and finds a cell with a blood stained mattress. He pours salt and lighter fluid on the mattress and lights a match to set the mattress on fire.

Dean and Tiny are in the infirmary sitting on beds in metal cages separated by a curtain. Dean apologizes to Tiny, and Tiny admit he has always had self-esteem issues. Dean looks up to see a gray figure of a woman with ratted hair and bloodshot eyes in a nurse's uniform, and the clock stops. The ghost flings Dean against the wall and plunges her hand into his chest, squeezing his heart. Dean manages to grab a plastic container of salt from his dinner tray, and tosses the salt on the ghost, who is dispersed. Unfortunately, the ghost reforms in Tiny's cage and attacks Tiny.

The next day in the prison yard, Dean tells Sam the ghost is a nurse and not Moody. Sam tells Dean that he told Deacon they had taken care of the ghost, and their escape is planned for tonight. Dean says they better do some research fast, which leads them to question Randall. After Dean gives Randall 2 packs of cigarettes, Randall tells them that [[Characters/SupernaturalGhosts Nurse Glockner]] worked at Green River County Detention Center in the 1970's. During that time there was a rash of unexplained heart attacks, and while people said she was behind it nothing was ever proven.

Sam is insistent that they escape tonight, which leaves them only 5 hours to research Nurse Glockner. Dean decides to call their lawyer, Mara Daniels, who meets him in the visitor's area, separated by plexiglass. She is baffled when Dean requests that she research Nurse Glockner and find out where her body was buried. However, Dean insists that this is the best way Mara can help him and uses all of his charm.

Later in the prison yard, Sam and Dean argue about whether they should leave tonight or stay until they are sure the ghost is gone. Sam grabs Dean's shoulder, and Dean shoves Sam. 2 guards and the warden grab Sam and Dean before the fight can escalate, and lead them into the showers, where the warden asks the guards to leave so he take care of the hard cases alone. Once the guards leave, the Warden gives Sam and Dean a big smile, and Dean refers to him as Deacon. [[Characters/LawEnforcement Warden Deacon]] removes their handcuffs. Sam then explains that the ghost is not Moody, and Dean says they should stay until they know the job is done. This prompts another argument between Sam and Dean, which Deacon finally manages to interrupt. Deacon gives Dean an envelope their lawyer left for them. Inside the envelope is a note that says Nurse Glockner died in an inmate uprising in the old cell block, shortly after Moody died. Her head was bashed in after she was dragged into a solitary cell, and the note also says where she is buried. Deacon removes a panel covering a vent in the wall, and after Deacon hugs and thanks both of the Winchesters, Dean punches Deacon on the cheek to make it look like they jumped him. Sam and Dean exit the prison, walk up some stairs, and find the Impala parked beside the prison. As they get into the Impala and put their jackets on over the orange jumpers, the prison alarms sound.

A furious Agent Henriksen interrogates Warden Deacon, asking how Sam and Dean could get the drop on him. He them asks for a list of their activities today, and after he hears they met with their lawyer, he starts interrogating Mara Daniels. Sam and Dean, now back in jeans, open button up shirts, and t-shirts, arrive in the cemetery and grab some shovels out of the trunk. Sam tells Dean they should hurry because if Henriksen gets to the lawyer, her conversation with Dean will not be covered by attorney-client privilege. Back at the prison, Mara claims it was a private conversation with her clients, but when pressed about the fact that the escape occurred 3 hours after her conversation with Dean, she admits that Dean wanted information on where a nurse who died in 1976 was buried. Three police cars and a paddy wagon rush to Mountainside cemetery. Sam digs up Delores Glockner's grave, while Dean holds the flashlight and serves as lookout. SWAT teams pour out of the vehicles and into the cemetery as Sam's shovel hits the coffin.

Warden Deacon is washing his face in the prison restroom, when the clock stops at 8:32 p.m. The lights flash and Deacon's breath is visible. He turns around and sees the ghost of Nurse Glockner who throws him across the room. As officers with flashlights and guns walk between the graves, Sam and Dean cover the body in salt and lighter fluid. The ghost puts her hand over Deacon's heart and he starts to convulse. Sam drops a match into the grave. Dark veins appear on Deacon's face, and then the ghost bursts into flames. Henriksen is frustrated as they continue to search Mountainside cemetery. As Sam and Dean hurry back to the Impala, we see the sign at this cemetery reads "Green Valley Cemetery". Mara Daniels leaves the police station and smiles before getting in her car. Agent Henriksen looks around the cemetery realizing he has lost the Winchesters. As Sam and Dean get into the Impala, they talk about the fact that they have to go deep. They drive off into the night.

** Dean calls Special Agent Henriksen "Milwaukee Agent Henriksen" referring to the phone conversation they had in [[Recap/SupernaturalS02E12Nightshifter "Nightshifter" (S02, Ep12)]].

-->'''Mara Daniels:''' Extradition papers have already been filed from five separate states, [[Recap/SupernaturalS01E06Skin Missouri]] and [[Recap/SupernaturalS02E12Nightshifter Wisconsin]] being the biggest concern – the bank robbery and the murder raps.
** In the scene where Mara confronts Agent Henriksen and his partner, Agent Henrksen is looking at folder labeled with an FBI logo and the name "Dean Winchester". The paper Agent Henriksen seems to be studying is a warrant from California. This could refer to the [[Recap/SupernaturalS01E01Pilot Pilot]], where Dean was taken into custody and is under suspicion for the disappearances of 10 men. Dean told the Sheriff his name was Music/TedNugent, but given that the Sheriff read [[Characters/SupernaturalTheWinchesters John Winchester's]] journal, he may have worked out Dean's true identity.
** Mara mentions Detective Diana Ballard in [[Recap/SupernaturalS02E07TheUsualSuspects "The Usual Suspects" (S02, Ep07)]] and Sherry the bank teller in [[Recap/SupernaturalS02E12Nightshifter "Nightshifter" (S02, Ep12)]].

** When Randall implies he wants another pack of cigarettes to give them information on the nurse, Sam tells Dean to give it to him, and Dean says, "I earned these." This recalls the scene in [[Recap/SupernaturalS01E05BloodyMary "Bloody Mary" (S01, Ep05)]] when the morgue technician demands more cash and Dean says, "Dude, I earned that money." Sam replies, "You won it in a poker game." To which Dean responds, "Yeah."

-->'''Dean:''' Well, it’s about time. I’ll have a cheeseburger. Extra onions.
-->'''Agent Henriksen:''' You think you’re funny.
-->'''Dean:''' I think [[ProudBeauty I’m adorable]].
