Synopsis

Dean: Hunting has a way of changing a person. After a while, right, wrong, good, evil, they all start to look the same. And then it makes you start to wonder, "Who's really the monster here--them or me?"

While Latika tries to meditate, John and Carlos argue. John wants to continue searching for the radio tower that is sending out the signal calling monsters to Lawrence, while Carlos wants to wait until they get some intel they are waiting on. Mary interrupts, noting Carlos is wearing her robe, when a phone rings. It's not the house phone, but a phone hidden in a credenza that is just for hunters. The call is from Tracy Gellar, a retired hunter, who has found Darla, an old hunting partner dead in her barn. As they head to Tracy's place, MAry explains how Tracy leaving hunting and having a life has been an inspiration for her.

At Tracy's farm they examine Darla's body, which looks as though she was killed by a werewolf. However, Carlos find a claw in the rafters, which suggests another creature is responsible. Together they help Tracy give Darla a hunter's funeral.






Dean: Hunting's not for everyone. You have to be strong, stay sharp, make tough decisions, and it's not easy, But then again, the righteous things never are.

Quotes

Latika: I am centered. I am at peace. I create my own path, and I walk in it fearlessly.
Mary: Is that my robe?
Carlos: I like to think of it as our robe.
John: I thought getting out of hunting was next to impossible. I mean, what was that whole thing that you said about the-- "The only thing worse than how it starts for hunters is how it ends"?
Carlos: Okay, so I embellished for dramatic effect. Are we really gonna act surprised by that now?
Lata: Actually, could I look at your lore books? Someone took out my "Wilmont's Guide to Monster Anatomy" to make room for their machetes.
Lata: Being a pacifist and a hunter, it's like I'm torn between two different worlds. And seeing Darla on the pyre back there reminded me of what happens when you can't punch back.
Mary: Did you have any regrets about it-- leaving?

Tracy: In the ten years since, I've read hundreds of books, stepped foot on almost every continent. I went to college, cultivated the land... Broke nearly a dozen hearts.
Mary: Okay!

Tracy: ...made a prizewinning lemon meringue. My only regret is that I didn't get out sooner.
Mary: Your mom told me about you and danger and how you've run towards it every single time since you were a kid.

John: I don't need you or my mom psychoanalyzing me.

Mary: And I don't need you using me as an excuse to avoid your issues.
