7.03 The Girl Next Door
Amy Pond and her mother are Kitsune travel around the country. In 1998, they crossed paths with the Winchesters in Lincoln, Nebraska. Sam and Amy meet, only belatedly discovering that they are on opposite sides. When her mother attacks Sam, Amy kills her. Sam lets Amy escape.
In the present day, Amy has a young son, Jacob. She is working as a mortician to obtain the brains and pituitary glands they feed on. However, her son becomes sick, and only fresh brain matter will heal him. Amy kills three people, and her son is cured.
Sam sees details of the killings in a local paper, and examines the body of the latest victim - a heroin dealer who has had part of his brain removed.
Sam tracks Amy, and she pleads her case with him - this was an extraordinary situation, and she is trying to live a normal life. Remembering that she killed her mother to save him, Sam lets her live.
After Dean catches up with him, Sam reveals the whole story. Later, unbeknownst to Sam, Dean tracks Amy down and kills her. As she dies, her eyes appear like those of a fox - or a Kitsune. Jacob witnesses the murder. Dean asks if the boy has someone he can go to, and Jacob says he does. Dean tells him if he ever kills anyone, he'll come after the boy. Jacob replies "The only person I'm going to kill - is you".
