Charlie: [cuts off mid-ramble as Dean rubs his eyes] Uhhh ... guys. Since when does the bunker allow gatecrashers?

Sam: [chuckles] Technically, they live here too.

Ben: [and as he comes down, there's no mistaking that face or the grin on it] Hello to you too.

Charlie: [and she will take a nice step back because] Wow, that's freaky.

Olivia: [squints at Charlie] Who is this?

Sam: Guys, this is Charlie. Charlie, meet Ben, Olivia and Michael.

Charlie: [inches closer to Dean] Why do I feel like I've walked into a weird, twisted version of The Parent Trap?

Dean: [pats her shoulder] You get used to it.

Ben: [smirked] So I take it you're a part of Sam's nerd squad?

Charlie: Please. I am the nerd squad.

Dean: Charlie is a hacker, she gets us around a lot of our red tape.

Sam: And between the two of us, we're pretty unstoppable.

Ben: [nods, eying Charlie a bit] Awesome.

Charlie: [are you eyeing her or are you EYEING her, Benjamin because she so does not play for your team]

Ben: [he has Lindsay. he doesn't need sex. But she's cute and smart so he's appreciative.]

Charlie: Right. Where did they come from, exactly?

Ben: Twenty thirty.

Charlie: Come again?

Dean: Alternate reality. Basically, they come from creepy zombie Oz.

Charlie: Huh. And aside from the obvious doppelganger shenanigans afoot, they're here because ... ?

Michael: .... Wait, like the Wizard of Oz?

Ben: There was no yellow brick road where we were.

Sam: [his turn to rub his eyes] They accidently came through a portal and we can't put them back.

Ben: Technically, they wouldn't put us back. Now we're used to the place.

Charlie: I've been to Oz. The yellow brick road? Not all it's cracked up to be.

Ben: We come from the world with a zombie virus trying to wipe out what's left of humanity while Lucifer sat back and ate popcorn.

Charlie: So you skipped the Leviathan chapter of the story. I'm ... honestly not sure which sounds worse.

Dean: I've been to both. They're both equally shitty.

Sam: Anyway... Olivia and Michael are Bela and my future children.

Charlie: [. . . . . .] I ... [. . . . .] ... okay.

Ben: [finds a chair and flops in it, feet on the table and fingers laced behind his head] Mine's pretty obvious. [smirky smirk]

Charlie: Yeah, but who's your mom? Dean's been single for like .... as long as I've known him.

Ben: Lisa Braeden.

Sam: [waits because those damn books...]

Charlie: [wait for it ... wait for it...] Oh, please tell me someone had money on that.

Sam: Bobby did.

Dean: [makes a face] So did Dawn.

Ben: However, there is also a sixteen year old version of me running around this dimension as well who isn't going to find out. [looks at dean with the "I heard what you did' judgmental look]

Dean: [looks away awkwardly]

Charlie: Right. Anyway. I should ... go. As much as I would love to stay and bond with the next generation, I want to put as much distance between me and the Steins as possible.

Ben: We miss something while we were in LA?

Dean: You really don't want to know.

Ben: That really only makes me want to know more.

Charlie: Frankenstein - actually a real dude. Used something called the Book of the Damned to piece people back together and bring the dead back to life - his subsequent generations used it to give themselves immortality.

Ben: [nods] That's never a good thing.

Dean: Nope. But the book's gone.

Ben: Good. Shit like that brings nothing but trouble.

Charlie: Yep. So good seeing you boys. [And there will be hugs]

Sam: [hugs]

Ben: [grins and holds out his arms, totally good for hugs.]

Charlie: [gives him a skeptical look, before moving on and holding his dad. after that, she pulls back with a wave] Arrivederci, bitches. [and Charlie is out]
