Author's Summary: Winchester isn't stupid. Dangerous, unpredictable and often reckless. But definitely not stupid. So there has to be a good reason that, knowing full well that he's on the FBI's radar, Dean Winchester brazenly walked into the Federal Building on Wilshire Boulevard to collect a passport under the pseudonym of Ronald Belford Scott.

Review:
A fabulous crossover wherein the Winchesters encounter a somewhat more realistic FBI presence than Hendrickson's and on the other side, the Numb3rs team (whose POV the story is written in) provide a fresh perspective on how the Winchesters appear to those who aren't "in the know." The Winchesters are badass in an understated way - running rings around and manipulating the FBI - and delightfully focused on the case as the was the predominant feature in the early seasons. There's a nice use of the parallels between the two sets of brothers, but thankfully it never becomes an overwhelming gimmick.

All-around clever and fun.
