Synopsis
Sam and Dean bust into a house, guns drawn, and fan out to quickly cover the premises. In the main room, there's a dead body covered by a bloody sheet and someone else's body is in pieces, blood spattered across the floor and walls. An iPod is hooked up to speakers and playing a song on repeat, and Dean pulls the iPod off its dock to tell Sam, who's been examining the bodies, that the rest of the house is clear.
Sam tells Dean that he can't identify the covered body, not to mention whoever was torn to shreds. Then he notices a sticky note on a laptop nearby: it says "PLAY ME." They open the laptop and click on a file in the center of the desktop screen. It's a movie file, and when it starts the words "This should have never ended this way" flash across the screen. What follows is a movie cut together with footage from a variety of handheld, hidden, and web cameras, taken largely by amateur filmmaker Brian Wilcox.
The first scene of the movie is in a coffeehouse, and playing in the background is the song that was on repeat when Sam and Dean entered the house. Brian has a new camera, and he's testing it out with his friend Michael Wheeler when he notices a beautiful girl. Her name is Kate, and when she sees them filming her and her friends, she gets up to confront them with a camera of her own in hand. Despite Michael's lack of knowledge about cameras and film, they hit it off, flirting while Brian watches.
Kate and Michael's relationship develops quickly, and it's clear in the next few scenes that Brian is jealous. Though he has more in common with Kate, she's with Michael, who is more masculine and conventionally attractive than he is. He and Michael have been friends for a long time, though, so Brian doesn't say anything. They're leaving an English class lecture with Kate when a group of jocks bump into Brian and knock his camera to the ground, and Michael stands up for him, almost starting a fight with a guy named Scott. Afterwards, they're walking back to their house when they see police cars near campus, and Brian asks Kate to get out her camera, too, so they can try to get scenes for his movie.
They approach the crime scene, where a bloody body has been covered by a sheet. They catch Sam and Dean arriving in the Impala, and hear them introduce themselves as FBI agents to the police officer on the scene. They learn that the only witness to the murder is considered unreliable, and that she thought she heard something like a coyote growling.
Later, Michael goes out with Brian to help him shoot things for his movie. They see Sam and Dean questioning someone, and sneak up to film them. They catch Sam telling Dean that there isn't a case here, but Dean disagrees, calling Sam rusty. Michael remarks that there seems to be a "workplace romance" going on between the two FBI agents. Later, they catch Scott making out with a girl next to some bleachers. The girl tells him to stop and pushes him away when he starts getting too aggressive, and Brian and Michael laugh at him. When he sees them, he gets angry and starts to chase them, but the two friends split up, Michael heading into the woods. He's by himself when he hears something moving in the trees and a low growl. He thinks it's Scott trying to scare him, but whatever it is attacks, and Michael screams.
Brian goes looking for Michael and finds him in the woods, a large bloody wound on his shoulder. He carries Michael back to their house and tells Kate that something bit him. Kate panics when she sees Michael's jacket torn and bloody and is calling 911 when Brian, incredulous, tells her that the bite is suddenly gone. The next day, Michael is resting after getting a clean bill of health from his doctor, and Brian tries to comfort Kate, who is still upset at the thought of losing Michael. They're talking quietly when Michael gets up to use the bathroom… and pulls the door off its hinges without even trying.
They immediately start testing Michael's new strength and speculating about what could have bit him. Brian is determined to get what he calls Michael's "origin story" on camera and sets up cameras all around the house. He then asks Michael to take him out to the woods so that whatever bit Michael can bite him, too, but Michael refuses and Brian leaves, angry.
