HANK'S KNOWLEDGE OF NICK'S WORLD HAS HIM SECOND GUESSING A PAST CASE -- JASON GEDRICK AND LISA VIDAL GUEST STAR -- Hank (Russell Hornsby) starts reflecting on an arrest he made earlier in his career regarding a man (guest star Jason Gedrick) who committed murder claiming "self-defense against monsters." With the man's death sentence rapidly approac...
7 years ago: A police car arrives at a house in a calm neighborhood at night. A woman runs to an officer saying there was a horrible fight inside. After that warning, two gunshots went off in the house. Hank Griffin, as a uniformed officer, bursts into a house where two men are lying on the ground. One is dead and the other is gravely injured. While tending to the men, Hank notices movement outside and chases after the figure, before tackling him and arresting him. The man, Craig Ferren, is hysterical as Hank tries to subdue him. Ferren is screaming about "monsters" and begging to not let them eat him.
Present day: Hank sees on the newspaper that Ferren's execution is the next night. Nick notices that Hank is disturbed and questions him. Hank tells him about Craig’s case, and while at the time of his arrest Craig’s story of men who turned to monsters seemed like insane ravings, now that Hank knows about Wesen, he was beginning to reconsider. Nick is reluctant at first, but decides to help Hank get to the bottom of the case.
At the precinct, Nick and Hank look into the case. Apparently Ferren claimed the brothers he killed were cannibals and monsters with claws and fangs. They come to the conclusion that no matter if the brothers were Wesen, they had to come up with evidence the rest of the world could believe. They decide to consult Agent Robert Anderson, who had worked alongside Hank in the case.
Captain Renard is lying face first on his bed with a clear hangover and an empty bottle of whisky next to him when he receives a call that reminds him of a forgotten meeting.
Agent Anderson, who is convinced that Ferren is guilty, advises Nick and Hank to let justice prevail, and is altogether not very helpful.
Juliette has a friend over to talk about her dilemma between Nick and Renard. She at first denies vehemently the fact that there is a third person, before slowly relenting and is clearly confused of her feelings.

Trivia
•The episode's title is a reference to the police motto "To protect and to serve," along with the Damon Knight short story "To Serve Man," which is equally ambiguous as to whether humanity is the guarded entity or the main course. •This is also a pun on the Wendigo's diet, as they literally serve men (human flesh) in their meals.
