After disposing of Jacob's body, John and the hunter head back to collect Sam and Dean, when questioned what happened to Uncle Jacob, Fletcher tells Dean that he take off and that he would be coming along with them, telling Dean to call him "Uncle Hunter." When John asks Hunter why they have to leave, he tells him that the [[hellhound]] wasn't [[Mary]]'s real killer and is just a pet, saying that after he injured it it went back to his master, a [[demon]]. Initially shocked at the prospect that a demon killed Mary, John is still steadfast in want to kill it. Hunter warns that if it is a demon, he's got himself a big hunt ahead of him. So with their trail cold, and needing new clues, Fletcher takes the Winchesters to [[Harvelle's Roadhouse]]. Skeptical about what sort of clues they are going to find in a dive bar, Fletcher reveals that everyone there is a [[hunter]].
John and Hunter take the hellhound tooth to another hunter named Ichi, telling him they're on the trail of a demon. Ichi tells them he can't help, and that he's on his own hunt, a "[[Spring Heeled -heeled Jack|heeler]]" out in the woods killing people. Hunter asks Ichi if he and John can tag along, so John can get some hands on experience hunting. With Ellen agree to watch Sam and Dean, the trio head to Baldwin Pass to hunt. Based on intel from talking to locals, Ichi tracks the heeler to a shack in the middle of the woods. Ichi kicks the door down, but the shack is empty and smells of a fresh kill. When they question John if he sees anything outside, he is suddenly attacked by the heeler, when John has a chance to kill it, he intentionally misses, telling Hunter he couldn't do it. Ichi is able to hit it in the leg, and while Hunter calms John's nerves, he goes and finishes it off.
On the drive back, Hunter tells John he needs to turn his fear into anger, and think about what would happen if he wasn't there to stop a monster from killing and spreading evil. When they arrive at the Roadhouse, Hunter notices Ichi has a leg wound, he tells John that Ichi is dead and that the thing in the woods was a [[shapeshifter]] that took the form of a heeler, and when Ichi went to kill it the shifter got the upper hand and took Ichi's form. John doesn't believe him, but Hunter tells him to look for the signs, like Ichi wound being in the same place as the heeler/shifter's he gives John the shotgun, telling him to kill it while it's weak. As Ichi approaches the two, John notices a retinal flare in one of Ichi's eyes, John takes aim and fires and while the shifter is on the ground walks to it and blows it's head off, unbeknownst that Dean has witnessed the whole thing.
