LIVING ROOM - DAY

Harry and Ed sitting in easy chairs in front of a fireplace, dressed in formal wear and holding brandy glasses.

Harry: Hello. I am Harry Spengler

Ed: And I am Ed Zeddmore. Now if you have received this tape, you must be some sort of bigwig network executive. Well, today is your lucky day, mister.

Harry: Because the unsolicited pilot you are about to watch is the bold new future of "reality TV."

Ed: Mmmm. We know you've had it hard during the crippling writer's strike.

Harry: Lazy fat cats.

Ed: Who needs writers when you've got guys like us?

Harry gestures and reaches for... a cheap dimmer switch.

Ed: Our team faced horrible horrors to bring you the footage that will change your world forever. So strap in for the scariest hour in the history of television.

Harry: In the history of your life...

Ed: Strap in for...

Both: Ghostfacers!

GHOSTFACERS theme song and opening montage, showing the characters and names: Ed, Harry, Spruce, Maggie, Corbett, Sam, Dean, Nathan, Rick, Rachel, Rose, and Danielle

SUBURBAN NEIGHBORHOOD - DAY

Harry and Ed exit an AMC Gremlin with Wisconsin license plate, each carrying a metal briefcase with a "Ghostfacers" sticker. WESTERN-STYLE MUSIC playing.

Ed (V.O.): You know, it can get kind of hard balancing our daytime careers with our nighttime missions.

Harry (V.O.): Yeah, but Ed and I pretty much call the shots at the Kinko's where we work, so we can usually pretty much get off by six every night?

Ed: Yeah, six o'clock. It used to be just, you know, you and I taking on the cases -- just Harry and me.

Harry: Two lone wolves.

Ed: And two lone wolves need, uh...other wolves.

PHASE 1: THE HOMEWORK

GHOSTFACERS "OFFICE"

Ed: Morning, 'facers.

Harry: Good morning, Ghostfacers.

Spruce: It's seven p.m., dude.

Harry: It's morning to a Ghostfacer. Corbett, what do we got, buddy?

Corbett: Oh, I'm just putting up some of the --

Ed: Yeah, this has got to go up here. That's got to go here. got to see the whole field. Markers, eraser -- good job.

Corbett: I first saw Ed putting up flyers down at the -- the outlet mall in Scogan, so I-I read one, and I thought to myself, "huh. Where do ghosts come from?" And now here I am.

Harry: Ed, your sister's abusing staff.

Ed: That's adopted sister, thank you very much.

Maggie: Ed has been obsessed with the supernatural since we were kids, you know, and then he meets Harry at computer camp...and love at first geek.

Spruce: Spruce here. What up, playaaa?

BALL CART ON DRIVING RANGE - DAY

Spruce: I am 15/16 Jew, 1/16 Cherokee. My grandfather is a mohel, my great-grandfather was a tallis maker, and my great-great-grandfather was a degenerate gambler and had a peyote addiction.

GHOSTFACERS OFFICE - DAY

Ed: Okay, people. Let's cut the chatter and get on a mission. Okay? Morton house...one of our big fish. All right, we all know the legend. Every four years, supposedly, this becomes the most haunted place in America.

Harry The leap year ghost, some call it. The ghost returns at midnight just as February 29th begins.

Maggie: And no one has ever stayed the night, right?

Harry: Yeah, well, every testimony that we dug up, every eyewitness has cut and run well before midnight.

Ed: Well, that's all about to change, baby.

Harry: Absolutely true, Ed. Absolutely true.

Ed: Mmm. That's good.

Corbett: It's French vanilla, 'cause the other day, you said how much you liked it, so...

Ed: Thank you.

Corbett: You are welcome.

CAR-DAY

Harry: I like Corbett. I do. Shows up early, does his job, lot of good hustle out --

Corbett knocks on window and waves.

Harry: I think he's got the hots for Ed, and that could spell trouble for the whole team.

OFFICE

Corbett: Ed's kind of the more rugged, with that really golden...beautiful sort of beard. Definitely nice. Uh, and Harry's nice.

Ed: 29th is this Friday, facers. We want this mission, we got to move on it now, or guess what -- He's gone for another four years.

Sudden loud noise; Ed's whiteboard crashes to the ground, caused by the garage door it was attached to opening up.

Oh, watch out!

Who is that?

Ed: Dad! Come on!

Harry: Just cut the cameras. We don't need that. We don't need this part. We don't --

PHASE II: INFILTRATION

MORTON HOUSE

Ed: Stay low. Follow formation. Okay, as suspected. A lot of people have tried to break into the Morton house. The local authorities have just gotten fed up.

Harry: Looks like the cops have got this place pretty well fenced off.

Maggie: Wait. Didn't you guys get, like, a permit or something?

Harry: A permit? That's a good idea for next time.

Ed: Yeah.

Spruce: Car!

Harry: Car. shh, shh! Flashlights off.

Maggie: Keep totally still.

We hear the loud rumble of a car engine approaching, along with a radio playing "We're an American Band." It's the Impala, driven by Dean, slowing to a crawl with Nathan in the passenger seat shining a flashlight towards the Morton house. Behind the Mustang is Danielle and Sam on the bike before they drive away

Spruce: It's okay. Not cops -- just hicks.

Harry: Ed's got it.

Ed opens gate with wire cutters.

FOYER-INSIDE-MORTON HOUSE-NIGHT

Corbett: Okay. Okay.

Ed: What's your name?

He looks at EMF meter

Ed: .3, .29.

Corbett: Is there an entity or entities here with us now? Can you give us a sign of your presence?

Ed: You got to breathe, buddy.

Corbett: I can't breathe.

Ed: Corbett, night vision.

Corbett: Okay. Okay. Yeah.

Ed: Calm down, buddy. Breathe, all right? Calm the whirlwinds of your mind.

2ND FLOOR: TEAM 2 - HARRY, SPRUCE, MAGGIE

Harry: We're doing a basic EMF, EVP, temp-flux sweep. Looks like we've got all of our ducks in a row here.

Camera interference, EMF noise.

Harry: What?

Spruce: I don't know. It's weird. It's gone.

Harry: All right. Get this. Get this.

Harry tries unsuccessfully to kick in the door.

Spruce: Turn the knob.

Harry: All right...that's a good idea.

He opens the door

Jerky camera movement as Harry runs away yelling.

Harry: Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god!

Spruce: It's just a rat, dude.

Harry: What -- was that an apparition? Was that a spectral -- was that a .4? What do we got, 'cause the EMP was just off the --

Spruce throws a dead rat at Harry.

Harry: Oh, god! Oh, that is so not funny, Spruce!

ST FLOOR MORTON HOUSE - NIGHT

Corbett: Oh, god. Okay, it was just... I think it was just this branch... Okay...in the window.

Ed: This is spooky, man. This place...

Corbett: Okay. Oh, no!

Corbett and Ed are confronted by seven figures approaching with flashlights.

Dean: Freeze!

Rose: Police officers!

Rick: Don't move!

Sam: All right. All right. All right. Take it easy, take it easy.

Danielle: Let's see some identification.

Sam: Come on. Let's see some i.d.

Corbett: What -- are we under -- under arrest?

Ed: We are unarmed.

Corbett: Oh, god. Oh, god.

Nathan: Want to explain that weirdo outfit, Mr., uh, Corbett?

Ed: I know you.

Nathan: Yeah, sure you do. Give me some identification.

Ed: Yeah, ho-- whoa, hold on a second. I know you guys. Yeah.

Corbett: What?

Ed: Yeah, huh.

Rachel: Holy shit!

Dean and Nathan: What?

Rachel: Uh, West Texas... the... the tulpa we had to take out. Those two goofballs that almost got us killed... The hellhounds or something?

Nathan: Fuck me.

Ed: Yeah, we're not hellhounds anymore, okay? It didn't test that well.

Danielle, Rose, and Rachel exchanges a confused look

Corbett: Ed, what's going on?

Ed: They're not cops, buddy -- no, not at all.

Dean: Ed, Ed, you had a partner, too, didn't you -- A different guy?

Ed: Oh, yeah, yeah.

Rachel: Is he around here somewhere?

Ed: He's running around, chasing ghosts.

Nathan: Okay, well, listen, you and Rambo need to get your girlfriends and get out of here.

Ed: All right. Listen here, chisel chest, okay? We were here first. We've already set up base camp. We beat you.

Nathan raises an eyebrow as Danielle looks amused

Nathan: They were here first

Ed: Mm hmm.

Nathan suddenly grabs Ed by the collar and pushes him into the wall

Ed: Oh God

Nathan: Ed.......

Ed: Yeah?

Nathan: Where's your partner?

Rachel and Rose glances at each other, amused.

2ND FLOOR MORTON HOUSE - NIGHT

Harry: 10.6. 10.7, guys. The EMF is really spiking here.

Maggie: Temperature's down, like, 11 degrees.

Harry: All right, all right, keep your eyes peeled. This could be it. Maggie, can I get a reading in here, please?

Camera interference.

Spruce: Something keeps messing with the chip. I don't know what's going on here.

More interference, then suddenly a man in 50s-style suit and hat appears.

Spruce: Guys. Guys. Guys.

APPARITION OF MAN IN HAT: Look buddy, I'm sorry. That's it. I'm telling you, that's all the money I --

Gunshots ring out, apparition of man falls and disappears.

GHOSTFACERS

LIVING ROOM

Dean, Rose, Sam, Danielle, Rick , Rachel, and Nathan all walks into the room with their flashlights followed by Ed and Corbett.

Dean: What are you doing in the Morton House, Ed - on leap year -- what are you thinking?

Ed:: We're here to spend the night, okay? It's for our TV show.

Danielle: What now?

Sam: Great. Perfect.

Corbett: Yeah, nobody's ever spent the night before.

Rick: Uh, actually, yeah, they have.

Ed: Uh, we've never heard of them

Rachel: Yeah, you know why? 'Cause the ones that have haven't lived to talk about it!

Ed: Oh, come on, I don't believe you.

Sam places his duffel bag on the table pulling out a bunch of papers. Danielle walks over beside him

Sam: Look -- missing-persons reports going back almost a half century. John Graham stayed on a dare -- gone. Julie Wilkerson -- gone.

Danielle: There are tons more. All of them came to just stay the night through, always on a leap year. The only body they ever found was the last owner, Freeman Daggett.

Ed: These look legit.

Rose: They are legit.

Dean: Look, Ed, we ain't got much time here, buddy. Starting at midnight, your friends are going to die.

Harry, Maggie, and Spruce runs down the stais and into the living room

Harry Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Guys! Guys! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! We got one! Corbett! Corbett, we saw one! We saw one!

Ed: Get outta here!

Harry: It was a full apparition! It was like a class four. It was a spectral illumination! It...

Maggie: It was amazing!

Harry looks around the room noticing Nathan, Sam, Dean, and Rachel

Harry: Hey, aren't those the assholes and smoking hot girl from Texas?

Nathan raises his eyebrow, glaring at Harry. Rachel folds her arms, looking amused.

Ed: Yeah

Rose: All right, let's have this reunion across the street, guys.

Harry: Crap. Who's that? There's more of you.

Rick: Come on, come on. We'll get you ice cream -- our treat. What do you say? Let's go.

Harry: Yeah, I say no.

Maggie: Look at this. Look, look. Ed, Ed. No. No. Look at this. Okay, honest-to-god proof, all right?

She shows the group their footage on the laptop.

Ed: Are you kidding me?

Harry: Yeah. no, not kidding.

Spruce: What kind of reading did we get?

Harry: Uh, it was a 10.9.

Ed: 10.9?

Harry: Yeah, it was 10.9. It was almost 11. I came out, and I was like, "what's going on?" And I was like -- wait, watch this. Oh! He got blasted. It was crazy.

The hunters walks away from the group to talk amongst themselves. Spruce follows them, still recording them on his camera.

Sam: Think we were off on this? I mean, that was just a death echo.

Rick: Yeah, but what's it doing here? Did anybody get shot here?

Rachel: No, not that we could find.

Spruce: What's a death echo?

Rose: Look, we got a problem here. That ghost ain't it.

Harry: Yeah, that's real. Like, that happened.

Spruce: What's a death echo?

Danielle:: Echoes are trapped in a loop, okay? They keep replaying how they died over and over and over again, usually in the place where they were ganked.

Rick: It's about as dangerous as a scary movie.

Nathan: So maybe the echo's not dangerous, but maybe something else is.

Dean: You're right. All right, we need to get out of here, guys.

Rose: Come on. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Pack it up.

Sam: Guys, time is running out!

Nathan: We're moving!

Maggie: What about all of our equipment? What are we gonna...

Nathan: Lots of fun. Let's go.

Harry: We got more material. We got all kinds of stuff. We'll make you guys recurring guest stars.

Rick: Wait a second........where's Corbett?

Ed: He's right. Where's Corbett?

Nathan: Who the fuck is Corbett?

2ND FLOOR MORTON HOUSE - NIGHT

Corbett: I wish to communicate with the restless spirits here.

Camera interference.

Corbett: Uh, lights out? Oh, I think I got night vision here.

He switches to night vision. As he points the camera to himself, we see a tall ghostly figure appear suddenly behind him.

Corbett: That's better.

LIVING ROOM

Ed: No man left behind.

Rose sighs and folds her arms and rolls her eyes.

A scream is heard in the distance

Ed: That was Corbett

Harry: That was Corbett! Corbett!

Maggie: Corbett! It's okay!

Harry, Ed, and Maggie takes off running upstairs

Rachel: We'll get him!

Danielle: Go back! Wait!

Sam: Guys!

Nathan: GET YOUR ASSES BACK HERE!!

Dean: We'll get him back! Go back!

Sam: Guys!

The hunters sighs and looks at each other worriedly.

Rose and Danielle: Shit!

Rick: Ah fuck me.

Harry: No! where are you, dude?

Ed: Tell us where you are!

Maggie: Corbett!

CORBETT: Let me go!! Guys!!!

Ed: Corbett, you need to come back, Corbett.

Corbett: (Screaming): No!!!!

Dean: Hey! Hey! Hey! Come on.

Corbett's screams continue, fading away.

MORTON HOUSE 11:59 PM MORTON HOUSE 12:00 AM

Sam: Corbett's... He's not here. Let's go. Let's go.

Harry: No. No. No. But that's Corbett. No, that was Corbett. Didn't you hear that?

Danielle: Go, go, go, come on.

Ed: Guys. Guys. Guys. He's that way.

Rose: Here we go. Here we go.

Rick: Keep it moving. Keep it moving.

Ed: Corbett?

Rachel: Hey, hey, hey. Watch him. Watch him.

Nathan thumps Harry with his flashlight

Nathan: Go, go! Move your ass!

He turns to the camera and glares

Nathan: GET THAT DAMN THING OUT OF MY FACE!!

There's static coming from the camera.

LIVING ROOM

MORTON HOUSE 12:04 AM FEBRUARY 29TH

Ed: Oh, god, what's happened? Oh, god. He's gone. He just disappeared.

Harry: Okay, let's just go through all the angles. Let's go through all the cameras we have.

The hunters are gathered by the door, realizing the door is lock. Rachel approaches her fiancé.

Rachel: Well, it's 12:04, Nat. You good? You happy?

Nathan: Yeah, I am happy.

Sam and Dean exchanges a look.

Rachel: "Let's go hunt the Morton house," you said, "it's our Grand Canyon."

Nathan shakes his head and sighs.

Nathan: Babe, I don't want to hear this

Rachel: You got two months to live. Instead, we're gonna die tonight.

Rick picks up a chair and smashes it against the door

Spruce: Whoa! What the hell is going on, guys?

Rose: I'll tell you what's going on. Every door, every window, I'm guessing every exit out of this house -- they're all sealed.

Maggie: But w-why are they sealed?

Dean: It's a supernatural lockdown, okay? Whatever took Corbett doesn't want us to leave, and it's no death echo.

Rick: This is a bad mother, and it wants us scared.

Magie: Or it just wants us.

Sound of the EMF detector going off. More camera interference as we see Danielle sidle up to Sam as they secretly hold hands.

Spruce: Uh, guys, the camera's fritzing again.

Ed: Whoa. Whoa. Guys, the EMF's starting to spike. This is a big one!

Sam: Everybody, stay close. There's something coming.

Another apparition appears.

ALL: Whoa!!!

Nathan: Is this the same echo you guys saw earlier?

Harry: No, it's a different guy.

Danielle: Multiple echoes? What the hell's going on?

Rose: Beats me.

Rick: Okay. All right. All right. All right.

Rick starts to yell at the apparition.

Rick: Uh, hey, buddy! Hey. Hey. Wake up. You're dead! Hello!

Harry: What's he doing? What's he doing?

Rachel: It's rare, but sometimes you can shock an echo out of its loop if you can talk to the part of the ghost that's still human, but usually you have to have some kind of connection to the deceased.

Rick: Come on! Wake up! Be dead!

Camera interference; the apparition flickers and turns around.

Rose: You guys hear that?

Ed: What's that sound?

Harry: You guys hear that?

Rick: Snap out of it, buddy, huh? Come on, what are you waiting for? You're gonzo! You're dead!

Bright light shines on the apparition and the sound of a car horn approaching. The apparition flies backwards, as if hit by an invisible vehicle. Rick backs away, looking shocked. Danielle folds her arms, looking around

Dean: Where the hell did it go?

Footage of exterior of Morton House.

2ND FLOOR MORTON HOUSE - NIGHT.

The group follow the hunters down the hallway.

Nathan: Dude, there's no records of any of this here. No one got shot here. Obviously, no one got run over by a freaking train.

Sam: Stay close.

Maggie: Did the echoes take Corbett?

Dean: Yes. No. I don't know. We don't know what's doing what here; that's what we're trying to figure out, okay?

Rachel: All right, stay close.

Rose: Okay, look, um, death echoes are ghosts, okay? Now, ghosts -- they usually haunt places where they lived or where they died.

Danielle: Except these mooks didn't live or die here.

Sam: So, what are they doing here?

Rick: Hey, give the lady a cigar. All right, seriously, does looking at this nightmare through that camera make you feel better or something? I mean...

Maggie: Um...I, uh... Well, yeah. Uh, yeah. I think so.

Rick: Oh.

Group continues to walk through house. Shot of infamous DEER HEAD on wall. They enter a room full of stuffed animal heads on the walls, as well as file cabinets.

Sam looks over, holding a broken framed certificate

Sam: Freeman Daggett, house's last owner, officially commended for 20 years of fine service at the Gamble General Hospital.

Danielle: He was a doctor?

Sam: Janitor.

Rose: This looks like his den. When'd you say he died -- '64?

Rachel: Yeah, heart attack.

Maggie: What are these, c-rations?

Dean: Yeah, army-issued, three squares -- like a lifetime supply.

Maggie: God, is that all he ate?

Nathan: One-stop shopping.

Rick: Hello, locked.

Ed: Oh, come on, guys. This is ridiculous. I mean, how the hell is this supposed to find Corbett, huh? We should be digging up the friggin' floorboards right now.

Sam (holding up a dusty pamphlet): Huh. "Survival Under Atomic Attack."

Rose: An optimist.

There's a loud bang as Rick pries open the safe. He pulls a box out and turns around to see Ed holding his EMF meter close to his face. He glares at him, looking him up and down in anger pushing past him exchanging a look with Danielle

Danielle walks towards him and they begin going through the box. The other hunters walks over as the Ghostfacers films, holding up their flashlights.

Danielle: Crap.

She throws away useless things out of the box

Danielle: Crap

Rick: You said Daggett was a hospital janitor?

Sam: Yeah.

Rick: Ewww. Got three toe tags here -- one, death by gunshots, train accident, and suicide.

Danielle and Rose: Ewwwwww!

Nathan: That's nasty, dude

Harry What?

Sam: Well, that explains why all the death echoes are here.

Danielle: They're here because their bodies are here...somewhere in the house?

Rose: Daggett brought the remains home from the morgue. To *play*.

Harry and Ed: Ewwwwwwwwww!!!!! Ugh!!!!!

Spruce: That's nasty, dude.

Nathan: Right.

Rachel looks confused, looking down into the box before looking up in realization

Rachel: Wait a minute.

Maggie: Corbett.

She startles herself by coming across her own reflection in a mirror.

Maggie: Okay, Maggie.

Camera interference. Maggie swings the camera around, frightened, to reveal Nathan.

Nathan: Closer to the herd, okay?

Harry: Maggie? Maggie?

Nathan: She's fine.

Ed: Harry. Harry, I got an 8.6 and climbing fast. Something huge is coming. Look. Something big is coming.

Camera interference.

Harry: It's past 11, you guys.

Dean: Nobody move! Hold on. Hold on. Stay quiet.

More camera interference, then suddenly Nathan, standing next to Rachel, disappears into thin air.

Rachel looks to where her man was standing

Rachel: Nat?!!

She shines her light around the room.

Ed: It's really cold in here.

Dean, Sam, Danielle, Rose, Rick, and Rachel exchanges the same worried look

Sam: Where'd he go?

Rachel shrugs, looking around worriedly

Danielle: Nat?!!

Rose: Nat!!

Sam: NAT!!!

Ed: Some kind of surge

Dean: NAT!!

Rick: NAT!!

Spruce: Where'd he go?

Maggie: Oh no.

Sam leans down and picks up Nathan's flashlight. Rachel's eyes widens in horror

Sam: NATT!!!

Ed: Corbett? Nathan?!!

Harry: Corbett?!! Talk to us!

Rick: NAT!!

Ed: Corbett!!

Maggie: Corbett!!

Rachel: NAT!!! BABY!!

Maggie runs past her, bumping into her and drops her camera.

OTHER ROOM

The camera swings around to center on Danielle and Sam in the other room

Sam: Nat!

Danielle: Nathan!

Sam looks around, beginning to panic

Sam: NAT!!

Danielle: NATHAN!!

She shines her light around before looking over to Sam who looks like he's about to cry

Danielle: Hey, hey, hey.

She walks over to him and cups his cheeks

Danielle: We'll find him, Sam. It's okay

Sam looks down at her sadly and nods his head slowly as she runs her fingers through his hair and kisses him.

Danielle: It's gonna be okay

She kisses him gently again

Danielle: It's gonna be okay, baby.

She wraps her arms around his neck, he hugs her back, hands on her waist. She smiles and leans up, kissing him passionately.

HALLWAY

Ed is filming Rick walking down the hallway

Ed: Corbett!

Rick: Nathan!!

Rose: Nat!

ROOM

Sam and Danielle are still making out

Spruce(behind camera): Bom-chicka--bow-wow

He looks and sees Rick walking towards him

Spruce: Uh oh.

Rick walks past him and sees Danielle and Sam making out

Rick: What the hell are you doing?!

Danielle and Sam pulls away from each other stepping backwards. Rick clenches his jaw, glaring at Sam. Sam stares back in horror. He puts his arms out

Sam: Ric.....

Rick: YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!

He runs into the room after Sam.

Sam: Oh shit!

He runs past Spruce and into the next room, Rick chasing after him

Danielle: Ric, wait!

She watches Rick chase Sam over the broken table; they leaps over it with ease. Sam jumps over the fallen shelves, closely followed by Rick

Sam: Wait!

Danielle: Ric!

Rick: Get back here, you fucker!

Sam: I'm sorry!

Rick: Oh, you're gonna be!

Sam runs past a table and to the other side. Rick on one side and he on the other

Sam: Ric, just listen to me

Rick: Oh, I'll listen to you. I'll listen to you scream like a bitch when I kick your overgrown ass.

Sam tries to run but Rick follows him. Sam runs the other way but Rick stops him. Sam looks at Danielle pleadingly and she steps forward but Rick runs around the table, Sam bolts away.

Danielle: Ric, no!

Rachel and Rose runs into the room with Dean in tow

Dean: What the fuck is going on?

Rachel: What the hell?

Rose: What the hell is going on?

Sam runs behind Danielle and ducks down behind her, glaring at his brother

Sam: I think, I think-----

He points to Rick

Sam: Ric know about me and Dani.

Rick glares at Sam as he advances slowly towards him but Dean gets in between them and holds out his arms, pushing Rick away

Dean: Whoa, whoa, whoa! We're down two people already!

Rick: It's about to be three

Rose: Ric! Stop!

She shoves him back harshly. Rick's eyes are trained on Sam

Rick: That girl is like my little sister. I thought you were my best friend. I can't believe you

Sam steps towards him

Sam: Look, Ric, we're not just screwing around, okay? I love her. Ric, I'm in love with her.

Rick looks at him in shock then looks at Danielle who nods her head.

Danielle: Ric, I'm sorry we didn't tell you. I didn't know when the right time was and it's not now.

Sam wraps his arm around her, resting her head on her shoulder

Danielle: It's true. I'm in love with him. I love him

Sam gives her a small smile as they look back to Rick

Rick shakes his head and rolls his eyes

Rick: Fine! Looks like I get to hit you in the balls with a whiffle ball bat. Still doing that.

He marches out of the room.

Sam shallows a gulp, exchanging a worried look with Danielle

Sam: Oh fuck me.

Rose notices they're being filmed by Spruce

Rose: GET THAT FUCKING THING OUT OF MY FACE!!!

She walks past him but he follows her, moving the camera down, filming her ass. He moves back up seeing an angry Dean standing in front of him, glaring into the camera

Dean: Film my girl's ass one more time and I'll ram that camera down your throat.

Sam lays his head on Danielle's shoulder and she looks up at him sadly.

Rachel: I think we're gonna buy some ice packs for you, Gigantor. A lot of em

ROOM

"It's My Party" playing in the background. Through a night-vision camera, we see a table with a cake and confetti.

Nathan: (O.S., behind camera): Corbett. Corbett. Hey. Corbett, hey.

Corbett: Nathan?

Nathan: Corbett, hey, you got to keep listening to my voice, okay? I'm right here. Stay awake.

Daggett (O.S.): Don't listen.

He picks up a knife.

Daggett: It stops hurting, so don't worry.

Nathan: Corbett, stay with me. Stay with me, you got it? I'm right here. Hey. Stay with me. Don't. Don't.

Daggett stabs CORBETT through the throat.

Nathan: No. Corbett! No! Corbett!

Nathan stares in horror as Corbett drops down on the table. He breathes heavily not knowing what to do

Nathan: Fuck my life.

HALLWAY

Maggie, Harry, and Ed are hurrying down the hallway, Rick behind them

Harry: Corbett!! Where'd you guys go?

Maggie: Where are you guys?

Sam is walking behind Rick

Sam: Ric.......I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have kept it from you. I saw, I'd never do anything to hurt her, okay? But you have to talk to----

Rick turns around and slaps him hard in the face making him stumble back into the wall

Rachel: Hey!

Sam rubs his cheek

Rick smirks, patting him on the shoulder

Rick: That's one. I'm due four more slaps and you'll never know when it's coming. I call it the Slap Punishment.

Rose, Rachel, and Danielle's eyes widens in shock but they also snicker in amusement. Dean just looks confused

Rick chuckles and walks away

Sam: What's a-----what's a Slap Punishment?

Danielle: It's like a Slap Bet.

Dean: What's a Slap Bet?

Rose: A bet where whoever wins gets to slap the loser as hard as they can anytime they want. They can hold onto the slaps for years.

Danielle: Never had a Slap Punishment before and Ric's never been the Slapper.

Sam: Oh great. Yay. That's wonderful, babe.

Dean: Oh, this is gonna funny.

Spruce: Whoa...

Rose: What fucking now?

Spruce: This is petty and stupid but I'm all in on the Slap Bet or whatever

Rachel glares at him then turns back to her friends

Rachel: Okay, I'm done with this shit. My fiancé is missing. So, Sam, suck it up and take your lumps whenever Ric decides to dole em out and take it like a man. We find Nat and we kick this ghost's ass or I swear to God I'll kick all your asses!

She storms past them into the other room, walking right past Ed and Harry who both looks down and crosses their legs uncomfortably.

Ed: I love you

Harry: If we survive this, I'm gonna need some alone time

OTHER ROOM

Rachel walks in and begins pulling out evidence and papers out of the box.

Harry: Rachel, what are you doing?

Rachel looks around, surrounded by flashlights

Rachel: Daggett was a cold war nut, okay? He was -- he was an amateur taxidermist. He liked to slow dance with cadavers, and all he ate were c-rations, so what the hell are we looking for?!

Maggie: Horrible little life.

Danielle: Yeah, a lonely life......

Rose: A cold war life. He was scared. He was scared...he was scared.

Everyone looks at her as she comes to her realization. She looks at her brother who's eyes lights up in the same realization

Rick: Oh shit. Come on

He and Rose quickly takes off running out of the room

Harry: Guys, where are you going?

ROOM

Nathan glares in defiance as he struggles against his restaints, breathing heavily and glaring at Daggett

Nathan: Get the hell away from me

Daggett: This won't hurt. It's okay. It's okay. Relax. Relax.

He straps a party hat onto Nathan, who's tied to a chair, while CORBETT slumps dead at the other end of the table.

STAIRWAY

The Ghostfacers follows the hunters down the stairs to the first floor of the house.

Maggie: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Where are you going?

Sam turns back and looks at her

Sam: Guys like Daggett back then, the ones who were really scared of the Russkies -- they built bomb shelters.

Rose: I'm guessing he's got one. I'll bet you it's in the basement.

Danielle opens the door and she, Spruce, Dean, Sam, and Rick goes in before the doors slams shut cutting them off from Harry, Ed, Maggie, Rose, and Rachel

Harry: Whoa!

Ed: Whoa! That is not funny!

Spruce: Um, who closed the door?

Dean: It did. It wants to separate us.

Sam and Danielle exchanges a worried look.

Rick: Ed, listen to me!

Ed: What?

Rick: There's some salt in my duffel. Make a circle and get inside.

Ed: Inside?

Harry: That's stupid.

Ed: Inside your duffel bag?

Rachel and Rose glares in disbelief and rolls their eyes

Ed: Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah.

Dean: Rosie, you okay over there?

Rose: Yeah, we're good. We'll take care of whatever's happening up here, babe.

Rachel: Go find my stupid ass fiancé

Dean, Spruce, Danielle, Sam, and Rick continues down the stairs.

Rose lets out a annoyed sigh as she and Rachel looks around at the Ghostfacers storming towards Rick's duffel bag and grabs the salt

Rachel: Okay, everyone, get in the circle. Get in the circle.

Rachel and Rose stands in front of them, clutching iron rods tightly

Harry: Guys, guys, I don't want to die, okay, and I don't want you to die.

Rose: No one's gonna die, okay?

She and Rose exchanges a worried and concerned look

Camera interference.

Maggie: Hey guys, hey guys, it's coming again.

Rose: Oh, god. Oh, OK. Guys. Get in close.

Harry: Oh, god.

Ed: Oh god, oh god.

Lights continue to flicker, and the group sees Corbett standing in front of them, bloody, unable to speak.

Ed: Oh. Oh, c-Corbett.

BASEMENT

Danielle is walking behind Rick in silence. She looks at him worriedly

Danielle: You can't ignore me forever

Rik scoffs, shaking his head

Danielle: You gonna slap me now?

Rick stops walking and glares at her

Rick: What?

Danielle: Why do you hate him so much?

Rick: Dani----

Danielle: Sam is a good guy and he's your friend. And the fact that you just pulled up a Slap Punishment just because he's with me.

Rick: Dani---

She shakes her head, pointing at him.

Danielle: I'm not 14 years old anymore! It's not your job to choose who I can or can't be with and---Rosie's dating Dean and you---

Rick: Who said I didn't react like this when I found out about them? I kicked Dean in the nards

Dean: He's right. My balls stills hurt from that

He says as he walks past them.

Danielle: Why are you so mad about this?

Rick: BECAUSE YOU LIED TO ME!!

Danielle looks at him in shock.

Rick: Besides Rosie, you're the only family I got! We're supposed to look out for each other! Have each other's backs. How am I supposed to trust you when you don't even tell me about your stupid overgrown dorky boyfriend

Sam looks insulted at this while Dean and Spruce snickers at this. Sam sends them a glare

Spruce: Dude, she is so out of your league. Teach me

Sam: Shut up, Spruce.

Rick: I'm not mad that you're with Sam. I'm mad because you lied. I'm happy for you. If you love him, that's great. Unlike his brothers, Sam actually uses his brains

Dean: HEY!!

Rick: Dani, you and Rose are my sisters so yeah, I'm not supposed to like the guys you date. I don't know why you had to lie to me

Danielle looks down sadly before looking back up to him again, tears in her eyes.

Danielle: I'm sorry.

Rick nods his head and lets out a chuckle

Rick: But the Slap Punishment is still on. I'm not taking that back.

Danielle: Okay. I understand

Sam's eyes widens in horror, shallowing a gulp

Sam: Shit.

Spruce: Hey, if we're done with this mushy mushy moment, can I ask you something?

Dean sighs as he glares

Dean: What?

Spruce: Earlier, Nat and Rachel-----she said he had two months to live?

Sam and Dean looks at each other sadly. Dean shakes his head and looks at the camera

Dean: It's complicated. A while ago, Sam.......

Sam: No, Nat doesn't like to whine about his "bitch ass" problems and we're not gonna do it either. We're gonna do our fucking job.

Spruce: Is it cancer?

Dean and Sam: Shut up.

Danielle and Rick walks towards them before Danielle grabs Sam's arm

Danielle: Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah.

Rick, Sam, and Dean looks back at her

Danielle: You hear that?

She points and everyone stops to listen

Nathan(OC Behind Wall): I'm a Barbie girl. In a Barbie World. Wrapped in plastic. It's fantastic.

Rick: Is that------is he singing----

Sam: Yeah.

Dean: It's coming from behind this wall.

Dean, Sam, and Rick pushes a cabinet away from the wall.

Spruce: Wow, you're strong.

Rick flips a pixellated middle finger to the camera.

ROOM

Daggett: You'll stay a good, long time.

Dean breaks the door open to the bomb shelter. Dean, Rick, Danielle, and Sam rushes inside.

Rick: Nat!

Danielle and Sam sees Nathan and lets out sighs of relief as they rushes towards him.

Dean and Rick shoots Daggett as Sam and Danielle unties Sam

Spruce: Oh god.

Through Spruce's camera, we now see the whole birthday table, with the party guests of old corpses and one new corpse: Corbett

Spruce: Oh, no, Corbett.

LIVING ROOM

Ed, Harry, and Maggie are now sitting in the salt circle with Rachel and Rose crouching down beside them

Ed: Oh god, what have we done? Oh god

Rachel: Ed. Ed.

She places her hand on his shoulder

Ed: Yeah?

Rachel: Corbett's a death echo. He's reliving his own murder

Rose: Over and over forever.

They looks at the others sadly as they stares in horror.

BASEMENT

Spruce continues to film as they make their way out of the basement

Spruce: What's this Daggett guy's problem anyway?

Nathan: Loneliness.

Danielle: What, he's never heard of a Realdoll?

Nathan: No, no, no, Daggett was the Norman Bates, stuff-your-mother kind of lonely. I mean, that's why he lifted these bodies from the morgue, threw himself a birthday party, except they were the only ones who would come. Anyway, so, at midnight, he sealed them in the bomb shelter and went upstairs and o.d.'d on horse tranqs.

Sam: How do you know this?

Nathan: 'Cause he told me.

Dean: Oh. yeah. Okay, so now that he's dead, what? Same song, different verse, trying to get people to come to his party?

Nathan: Pretty much, yeah. Stay forever.

Spruce: Are those real bullets?

Rick looks up at the camera and glares

Rick: It's rock salt.

Nathan looks at Sam, tilting his head seeing a red handprint across his cheek

Nathan: Jesus. What the hell happened to you?

Sam looks over to Rick as he and Danielle exchanges a look. Dean glares at Rick. Nathan looks confused until his eyes widens in realization

Nathan: Oh

LIVING ROOM

Rachel and Rose watches as Ed paces back and forth, singing softly

Ed: Ghostfacers... we go to places the others will not...Ghostfacers...stay in the kitchen when the kitchen gets hot.

Camera interference and lights flickering.

Ed: Oh, no.

Maggie: Guys? Corbett...

The ghost of CORBETT again appears to the group.

Ed: Guys, it's -- it's Corbett. He's -- he's -- he's trapped. He's in a lot of pain, you know? We got to try and... we got to try and pull him out of his loop. We have to.

He stands up and faces CORBETT.

Harry:: Ed?

Ed: Corbett. Corbett, it's -- Oh, god.

Rose: Don't cross the line of salt.

Ed hesitates, then steps over the salt line, confronting the ghost of CORBETT.

Ed: I gotta do it, Harry. Corbett, listen to me. Okay, I'm not gonna hurt you. Listen. Listen. Oh, god. Corbett. Oh.

Harry: Get back!

CORBETT's ghost starts flickering; Ed quickly retreats.

Ed: oh, god. Whoa. Oh, I can't, okay? He's not hearing me, okay? He won't stop dying.

BASEMENT

Dean and Rick are trying to break down the doo. Nathan looks back to see the camera in his face

Nathan: Seriously------still shooting?

Danielle: It makes him feel better. Don't ask.

Camera interference and flickering.

Spruce Ah, hell, guys. Get in your ghost-role thing. Something's coming.

Camera swings around, revealing the ghost of DAGGETT, who knocks Spruce and his camera to the ground.

Spruce: Oh, my -- OH!!!!!

Daggett approaches Spruce, but he's shot and dissipated by Sam.

Danielle walks up behind him with her gun and the two exchanges a look

LIVING ROOM

Rose lets out a worried sigh as Rachel nervously looks around the room

Harry: I know.....I know how we can get through to him

Rose and Rachel looks at him in confusion

Rachel: How?

Harry: Ed......he had feelings for you.

Rachel and Rose looks confused as Ed stares in shock

Ed: Huh?

Harry: He wanted you.

Eed: Wa-- wanted me to what?

Harry: You know.

He demonstrates with a slight grunt and pelvic thrust. Rachel and Rose chuckles, looking around uncomfortable

Harry: And you know what you've got to do. You can do it, Ed. You've always been the brave one. Yes, you can. You make us brave -- Maggie, right?

Maggie: Yeah. Yeah you do. You totally do.

Rose: Ed, you got to go be gay for that poor, dead intern or whatever he was.

Rachel: Send him into the light.

Ed approaches the ghost of CORBETT again

Ed: Corbett. Corbett, look. Hey, it's just Ed, buddy. It's just me. Hey, hey, Corbett, listen to me. Listen to me. I -- we... Okay. You meant... Corbett, you meant a lot to the team. You meant... You meant a lot to me. You know, never back down...Never say a bad word, okay? I remember that, Corbett. I-I remember that. I remember because I love you, Corbett. I really, truly love you. Do you remember that? do you?

Corbett: Hey. Ed?

Ed: Yeah. Yeah, Corbett, it's... Corbett, yeah, it's me. It's me. look at me. You got to help us, man. you have to help us, Corbett. Please. please. Please help us right now.

BASEMENT

Sam helps Spruce up to his feet

Sam: Take it easy. You good?

Camera interference and flickering. The ghost of DAGGETT appears behind Danielle

Spruce: Uh, guys...

Daggett throws Nathan and Danielle then Sam and Dean against the wall and is about to attack Spruce and Rick.

Spruce: This is bad -- very bad.

Camera interference and lights flicker again. Corbett appears behind DAGGETT.

Rick: Corbett?

Corbett's ghost attacks DAGGETT and they both disappear in a blinding flash of light.

Spruce: You all right, dudes?

Dean, Danielle, Nathan, and Sam picks themselves up off the floor

Rick: You all right?

Sam: God.

Nathan looks back at the camera, covering the lens with his hand.

GHOSTFACERS.

DAY

The door to the house opens up and Ed, Sam, Danielle, Rachel, Rick, Nathan, Rose, Harry, Maggie, and Dean leaves the house. Harry and Maggie stops and hugs each other while Rick hands Ed his phone number on a piece of paper

Ed(VO): Leap year, February 29th, the Morton House. A tragic day. A day of souls bound in torment, of lives held in cruel balance. But the Ghostfacers, they did the best that they could.

Harry: We lost a beloved friend, but we gained new allies.

LIVING ROOM

Ed and Harry are sitting in their suits on chairs in the living room

Ed: We know this much: that every day, including today, is a new beginning. We learned more than we can say in the brutal feat of the Morton House.

Harry: The Ghostfacers were forced to face something far more scary than ghosts. They were forced to face themselves.

Ed: War changes Man.

Harry: And Maggie.

Ed:: War changes man. And one woman... You know Corbett, we just... ah gosh, we just like to think that you're out there, watching over us.

Harry: As far as we're concerned, you're not an intern anymore. You have more than earned full Ghostfacer status. Plus, it would be cool to have a ghost on the team.

Ed: Yeah. Heh heh. And here we were thinking that, you know, we were teaching you and all this time you were teaching us, about heart, about dedication, and about how gay love can pierce through the veil of death and save the day. Thank you, Alan J. Corbett.

Harry: Go well into that starry night, young Turk. Go well.

BACK OF A VAN

Old footage of Corbett is shown.

Corbett is loading things into the back of the van

Corbett: Come on, Spruce, I gotta get all this stuff packed up!

Spruce: So, pack and talk!

Corbett: I don't know what to say.

Spruce: Say what comes to mind. This is one of our confessional moments, Corbett, so confess. What did you think was going to happen tonight? What do you think is going to happen on this trip?

Corbett: I think tonight, I really do, I think all of our dreams are going to come true. Does that sound stupid?

Spruce: Kind of does, yeah.

In Memory of Alan J. Corbett, 1985-2008 King of the Impossible

Camera pulls back from above words to reveal a computer monitor being watched by Sam, Nathan, Danielle, Rose, Rachel, Rick, and Dean along with the remaining Ghostfacers. We now know that everything we have seen up until now was the show put together by the Ghostfacers and their footage, and they have all been watching the playback. Also, now the "real" Supernatural opening credits are run

GHOSTFACER HEADQUARTERS

Ed: So, guys, what do you think? Are you alright?

Rose: You know, I kind of think it was half-awesome.

Maggie: Half-awesome? That - that's full-on good, right?

Sam: Yeah, um, I mean it's bizarre how you all are able to honor Corbett's memory while grossly exploiting the manner of his death. Well done.

Rachel secretly slips something into a backpack under the table.

Rachel: Yeah. It's a real tight rope you guys are walking there.

Nathan: Yeah, all right guys.

Ed: Nah, that's reality, man. Yeah, Corbett gave his life searching for the truth, and it's our job over here to share it with the world.

Danielle: Right. Well, um, our experience, you know what you get when you show the world the truth?

Rick: A straitjacket. Or a punch in the face. Sometimes both.

Sam: Right.

Harry: Oh come on, guys, don't be 'facer haters just because we happen to have gotten the footage of the century.

Ed: Oh yeah.

Rick: You got us there.

Rose: Yeah.

Dean: Yeah, well we'll see you guys around.

Spruce: Peace out.

The hunters leaves. Ed shuts the door behind them

Ed: Dicks

Harry: The guys are but is it me or did Rachel get even more hotter?

Ed: No, she's got hotter and Rose........wow. How the hell did Dean get a girl like her?

Spruce walks towards them

Spruce: Let's start laying off some DVDs.

Ed: Sounds like a good idea, Spruce.

Harry: You know guys, I think we're gonna need a bigger office here, you know? Because we're going to go national, and then it's going to go international, and then-

Ed finds the backpack Rachel left under the table.

Ed: Hey, Red left their dance bag behind. What's inside, huh?

He opens the backpack and removes a very large magnet strapped to a very large battery. Suddenly, the computer video playback starts to break up.

Harry: Whoa. What the hell is this?

Spruce: Uh...seems to be having some technical difficulty over here.

Harry: Wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Ed: No, no!

Harry: Wait, wait!!! No operating system found?!?!?! Wait a minute!!

OUTSIDE

The hunters stops beside the Impala. Sam and Danielle leans against the bike.

Sam: We clean?

ED: NOOOOOOO!!!

Harry: ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!

Rachel and Nathan smirks

Rachel: : Electromagnet wiped out every tape and hard drive that they have.

Rose: The world just isn't ready for the Ghostfacers.

Nathan: It's too bad. I kinda liked the show.

Sam: It had its moments.

Rick notices the way Sam and Danielle are looking at each other and rolls his eyes.

Rick: Okay......I don't wanna be the guy who gets in the way of the one good thing about hunting with you assholes.

Dean, Rachel, and Nathan gasps in fake offense.

Rick gives them all a look

Rick: You know what I mean. I'm just saying.......I'm cool......with you guys.....

Danielle walks over and hugs him

Danielle: Thanks

She steps away

Rick: No more secrets, got it?

Danielle nods and walks back towards her bike when suddenly Rick slaps Sam hard across the face making him stumble backward

Rick: THAT'S TWO!!!

Sam holds his cheek, groaning slightly in pain

Rick: How about I ride on the bike and Sam goes in the car? I never said I wasn't that cool.....yet. Okay? Great.

Sam sighs and walks towards the Musang

Rick: How long has this been going on anyway?

Rose: Six or seven months

Sam and Danielle glares at her

Rachel: Yeah

Rick glares, getting angry again

Rick: Wh----what? You guys knew?

Dean, Rachel, and Rose backs away

Rick: And you didn't even think to tell me?

Nathan: Well with me, I didn't want to know and we all know I can't keep my big ass mouth shut.

Rose: Ric, we were worried about you. We didn't know how you were gonna react.

Rachel: I had ten bucks on you killing Sam so everyone owes me money.

Everyone not taking their eyes off Rick hands her ten bucks each. Danielle clears her throat, handing her ten bucks.

Dean: What do you say we get out of here and let these the lovebirds get down to business?

Rick turns and glares at him.

Dean: Hey---hey---hey, I'm---I'm just talking here

Nathan points at Sam

Nathan: He's the one fucking Blondie.

Sam glares at him as Danielle laughs nervously. Rick rolls his eyes.

Rick: Sam, I still got three more slaps whenever the hell I wanna em so be on your guard. You never know when they're coming.

Sam nervously laughs, walking towards the Mustang. Rick raises his eyebrows as he pulls out a whiffle ball bat

Sam's face falls

Rick: Oh yeah, I didn't forget about this either

Sam: Go

Rachel: What?

Sam quickly gets in the Mustang

Sam: Go, damn it! There's no time!

Rachel looks over then gets in the Mustang and speeds away. Rick bursts out laughing his ass off, placing the bat down

Danielle and Rose: What?

Rick: I already got his ass scared shitless about the future slaps so I think I'm good with that.

Danielle tosses him a helmet

Rose: You weren't gonna hit him in the balls, were you?

Rick: I did the same to your boyfriend so.......yes. A deal's a deal.

Nathan: And it'll be really funny.

Dean and Nathan laughs as they get in the Impala. Rose gets in the backseat as they drive away.
