Donatello asks who Jack is, and Sam explains he is a nephilim. Donatello says he met Jack's father Lucifer, but the boy has very different power from his dad; It isn't dark.

Jack needs to be protected from forces of evil, so they tell him he needs to get a tattoo. They give him the sigil of protection while Dean and Sam argue about what happened.

Sam tells Jack he has special skills, but the boy just needs to get a grip on it. Sam tells Jack to not take Dean and his words seriously. The hunter explains they need to protect Jack and also protect the world from the nephilim. Jack says he may not be worth the effort, but Sam says he is because Kelly, Castiel, and himself think he is worth it.

With Dean, the show catches up with him in a bar. The hunter has a conversation with the bartender. She says kids always wind up wanting their old man's approval, and Dean says he can relate.
