Meanwhile after torturing a demon, [[Recap/SupernaturalS02E03Bloodlust Gordon Walker]] learns about the plan for the Special Children to be used by demons as soldiers in an impending war. This demon also told Gordon that he knows one of the Special Children, Sam Winchester. Gordon was able to confirm this information and find Sam's location from an unnamed informant at the Roadhouse. Gordon decides to hunt and kill Sam, believing Sam will betray humanity and fight for the demons. Dean had called the Roadhouse, and Ellen gave him Sam's location. Dean gets to the Blue Rose motel in Lafayette just in time to prevent Gordon from killing Sam, but Dean is knocked unconscious and taken prisoner by Gordon. With help from one of Ava's premonitions, Sam is able to avoid Gordon's trap and save Dean, while the police arrive and arrest Gordon based on an anonymous tip left by Sam. When the brothers check in on Ava, they discover she's missing, her fiance is dead and there's evidence of demon activity in the form of sulfur on the windowsill.
