They'll just have to go for the second option, because Spencer does not relish the questions they'll be asked.
Where would they even begin? With the fact that he hasn't immediately arrested one of America's most prolific and psychotic criminals? How about the fact that he just killed one of the victims? And then drove said prolific criminal to the hospital without handcuffs?
His only explanation is that vampires are real, and saying that would get him thrown in a psychiatric hold just about a split second after Winchester got arrested.
If he goes with option two, the questions are going to be even worse, come to think of it. But... it seems like the better option. So. Option two it is. Spencer gently helps Tara into the cruiser; she's mostly limp in his grasp, the shock and the pain of her captivity settling deep into her bones. He's seen it countless times with abductees. Whatever energy they had to withstand the torture, it all just evaporates as soon as they know they're safe. So he gets her into the back seat, and holds the door open for Sam.
"Can you stay in the back seat with her?" he asks, tentative, still worried about asking questions even though he's just seen Winchester do everything he can to save the victims. "I'll drive. There's a spare jacket in there, see if you can keep her warm and conscious. The hospital isn't far away."
