↠ Sam, Dean, and John finally reunite in Chicago. Guess who else shows up? That's right: None other than Meg – a favorite of the yellow-eyed demon (Azazel) who killed their mother (the big bad himself.) Right in the middle of Sam and Dean trying to fight off some really nasty shadow people. Meg's after John, and she uses the boys to try getting to him. Eventually, both adversaries are fought off, but things are cut way, way, way too close. It's determined that John fights better alone when he's not worried about the well-being of his boys. They separate again, for the time being.
↠ The boys visit one a pretty formidable haunted house with a series of deaths beginning to attach to it – only to find out that a dorky pair of paranormal hunting nerds spreading a rumor, starting a story, and letting it are the cause of all of the happenings.
↠ Sam is dragged along as Dean faces an ugly ghost from his past – a creature that's sucking the lives out of children and making them sick. Sam was nearly killed by one because of Dean's disobedience when he was six; he learns that this is the reason that John sent them on the hunt. He realizes that maybe Dean and John's relationship isn't so harmonious after all.
↠ Sam meets a woman named Sarah Blake on a hunt after a haunted painting. It's clear that feelings are there, but at the end of everything, Sam's life is too dangerous and he's got a path to follow. Despite the fact that he really does have a connection with, and like, the girl, they leave again.
↠ A pretty well-known hunter is killed by a group of vampires. John was friends with the man. The Winchester family reunites in an effort to stop them – and John's true agenda for having separated from the boys is revealed. He's after a gun; a colt that can supposedly kill any beast, any demon, in the world. He wants it to seek revenge on ole' Yellow-Eyes (Azazel). He joins the boys to kill the crap out of the vampires and get the gun back. Success!
↠ That success is short-lived in that Meg is back, and after the gun. She starts picking off John's friends one by one, trying to draw him out and get to him so she can get what she wants. Sam and Dean are left alone to face the demon that killed their mother.
↠ When Dean calls John to find out where he is, Meg answers. She's got John hostage. Eventually the boys are able to capture her. They exorcise her, but due to the damage her vessel's body sustained in Chicago, the girl dies. The boys feel bad but… what's done is done and it was necessary.
↠ The boys join back up with John only to find out that he's been possessed by the yellow-eyed bastard himself. John begs Sam to kill him so that the demon is also killed but Sam refuses to kill his father just to get revenge, even though he's done an extreme amount of damage to Dean. Sam shoots his father in the leg, not killing but expelling the demon and sending it back to Hell. Dean's in pretty critical condition and John's injured, so Sam gets them both into the Impala and veers off to get to the nearest hospital.
↠ They're hit by a truck driver possessed by a demon – one of the agents of yellow eyes.
↠ Dean is comatose and near death, and John is severely injured. Sam's the only one who's able to function half-normally after the accident, and starts looking for ways to save his brother.
↠ John Winchester does the dumb thing and makes a deal with Azazel. He hands over the colt, and his life, to save Dean's. Sam discovers that his father is dead. The boys, along with old family friend and fellow hunter Bobby Singer, burn John's body to ensure that he can't come back as an evil spirit, and mourn.
↠ The mourning doesn't last as long as it would with some people, because the boys are both hellbent on killing that damn demon now. In their hunt for him, they discover that there are way more children with weird powers – psychic or different in some way or another.
