No, I think his character break happened because he had just read or seen something very disturbing, like confirmed signs of increased Grim activity, or a group of Hunters being reported as KIA. good point and he wouldn't have let ruby join if he thought she might die Your theory made me think, though. Maybe he's sick of people who have overly romantic notions of Hunters (meaning he accepted Ruby based on her skill alone), and his intro speech is meant to be a wake-up call for those people. That theme came up with Blake as well, and I think it's going to be a major theme in the series.
