History
Garth is a hunter. In the past, he used Bobby as a resource,[1] and although he generally works alone, he has teamed up with the Winchesters on two occasions.[2][3] He also often works with Mr Fizzles, who is good at encouraging children to talk about traumatic experiences.[3]
Garth drives a Ford Ranchero that he keeps shovels in the back of for when he needs to dig up a grave on a hunt. Once he puts a spirit to rest, he says that the spirit has been "Garthed."[3]
Garth likes sweet things, comics, gets drunk easily, and appreciates a hot tub after a hard day's hunting. He gives good hugs. At some time after Sam and Dean first meet him,[2] he begins a relationship with a "special lady" who knows about his hunting and also has twins.[3]
Appearances
6.04 Weekend at Bobby's
Garth calls Bobby for some help on a case he's working, and Bobby tells him that it doesn't sound like a Vampire. He advises him to call the FBI with a tip, so Garth hangs up and calls the FBI... Agent Willis, that is. When Bobby realizes that Garth has called him instead of the actual FBI, he is exasperated. We only hear Bobby's side of the conversation.
- Bobby: Yeah, Garth, what do you got? ... Never heard of a vamp doin that. It doesn't sound like our kind of thing. Better drop a dime to the FBI.
- Bobby hangs up the phone. Another phone labeled FBI Tom Willis rings.
- Bobby: Willis, FBI. ... No, Garth, not me the FBI. The real FBI! How are you still alive?
7.08 Season Seven, Time for a Wedding!
Bobby sends Garth to Pike Creek, Delaware to help Dean work on a case, as Sam is under a spell by Becky Rosen. Dean shows him a newspaper article about people who have had good things happen to them recently are now mysteriously dying in freak accidents. Posing as press, they head to an insurance company where a man was just promoted from junior salesman to CEO, thinking he might be the next victim in their case. When Dean and Garth arrive at the insurance company, Sam and Becky are already leaving. Sam tells Dean that the new CEO Craig is clean, but Dean and Garth still question him. Dean and Garth become sure that the man's wife is the one behind his sudden success, so they confront her, but she refuses to admit to anything, that is, until they save her from being killed by a falling chandeler. Afterwards, she admits to making a deal with a demon. Garth tells her that she needs to get out of town for a few days while he and Dean figure things out. They break into Becky's apartment, and Garth sees Becky's last tweet on her laptop: "Going on romantic trip with hubster!!!" Later, after Sam convinces Becky to help them trap Guy, the crossroads demon behind all of the recent deaths, Garth uses blueberry vodka to draw a devil's trap which Becky then lights on fire to trap the demon. He and the other hunters then get attacked by Guy's accomplice, Jackson, but Becky manages to kill him. Crowley appears and takes Guy away to punish him for breaking deals. Back at Becky's apartment, Sam and Becky sign the annulment papers necessary to dissolve their marriage while Dean and Garth watch. Dean tells Garth that he "doesn't suck," and Garth gives him an uncomfortable hug before leaving in his car.
