Summary
Date: December 1983 Places: Lawrence, Kansas - Tempe, Arizona - Eureka, California
Missouri insists that it is time for John and the boys to leave. She sends him to Arizona to find a man named Fletcher Gable who identifies the tooth as belonging to a black shuck -- a kind of overgrown hellhound. He gives John a gift before he leaves -- a blank journal for John to record everything he encounters.
After they have left, a mysterious man knocks on Fletchers door, looking for the Winchesters.
Further down the long road, John and the boys arrive in California, where John takes a small detour to purchase a rifle. He's not sure what he's going to have to face, but he wants to be prepared. A knock on their motel door panics them, and as Dean and Sam hide under the bed, John cautiously opens the door. It is the same man who has followed them from Arizona. Dean refers to him as Uncle Jacob, while John reassures the man that although he may have felt like a father figure to Mary, there was no way he was taking the boys from John. He explains that he has an errand to run and asks Jacob to accompany him. The boys are left in the care of the woman who runs the motel and Jacob insists that they take his car -- a black Impala.
They arrive at the Hidden Hills Cemetery and start looking around. Just as they are about to give up, John sees a crypt with markings that match those on the tooth. Jacob barges into the crypt first and is attacked by the black shuck. John is also attacked, but is saved by the timely arrival of another mysterious man who shoots the hound. He says he is a hunter and was sent by Fletcher to help out, but doesn't reveal his name. The hound has been scared off and John wants to get Jacob to a hospital. The hunter says that a hospital won’t be able to help and convinces John that they need to destroy evidence of what happened. Reluctantly, John agrees and the almost-dead Jacob is bundled in John's old car and pushed off a cliff into a lake. He reassures John that they've done the right thing and reveals one last thing to John -- it wasn't the black shuck that killed Mary.
