"Previously on Teen Wolf..." "We're looking for somebody named Stiles." "You went by that name in the Army, right?" "He's called a Ghost Rider." "They take people, and erase your memories." "You're next." "Someone is biting open heads." "The real question is, "Why?"" "You might want to think twice before you sneak up on a man holding a loaded M-24." "I wasn't sneaking up on you." "I was catching up with you." "I know." "I heard you a mile back." "I found a low branch with my face." "How do you even see anything out here?" "Practice." "Okay." "What are you doing, Melissa?" "I thought maybe you could use some backup." "Which way?" "You can leave me out here alone with a stun gun and a box of Band-Aids, or we can just keep going." "It's up to you." "You're probably wondering why I'm out here when I could be nestled at home reading a book." "And that's because I'm sick of seeing people that I care about wheeled past the nurses' station on a gurney." "All of you are out here, risking your lives, and It's about time that I do something too." "In my experience, when tracking homicidal supernaturals, it's best to be quiet." " Okay?" " Yeah." "Oh!" "What is it?" "What is it?" "He's dead." "Oh, no." "It's okay." "You're gonna be okay." "How long could she survive like that?" "One, maybe two minutes." "It's still here." "Exactly how much training have you had for a situation like this?" "Remember the part about being quiet?" "Yeah." " It's a werewolf?" " Werecoyote." "Malia?" "And she's coming right at us." "Oh." "You're not gonna shoot her, are you?" "No, I'm going to wing her." "That's how he got in?" "What is it?" "It's a point of impact from a lightning strike." "Usually you'd find charred spots like that on the ground after a violent thunderstorm." "That's how the Ghost Rider got in." "He rode lightning." "If they can use lightning to get past the mountain ash..." "No place is safe." "What about the others?" "It's my fault they're marked." "We'll find a way to protect them." "All of them." "Keep her still." "The morgue?" "I'm not dead yet." "You're a werecoyote." "It's private down here, and this is going to hurt." "Try not to roar." "You got anything for the pain?" "No, I can take it." "It's for me." "What were you doing in the woods?" "Running." "At 2:00 a.m.?" "Coyotes are nocturnal." "I heard screams." "Like someone-being-murdered type screams." "Did you see anything?" "Catch a scent?" "Just blood." "And that's all I remember until someone shot me!" "You were about to tear us apart." "It's not her fault." "When a coyote smells a fresh kill, its senses are overcome." "The blood drives it crazy." "Sorry." "It's pretty deep." "I'm trying not to damage..." "Here's your bullet back." "You don't have to follow me around everywhere." "I'm just trying to keep you safe." "What?" "You're gonna sit through all my classes?" "And what about after school?" "What about all night?" "Wherever you go, I'll be there." "I'll just stay here." ""The K-index quantifies disturbances" ""in the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field."" "What's a "K-index?"" "It's a scale that meteorologists use to measure thunderstorm activity." "So, a K-Index value less than 20 means no activity, and above 35 is severe." "Well, how bad's "severe?"" "Well, your average storm has about 1,000 lightning strikes." "In the past three months, the average storm in Beacon Hills had 5,000." "And what's it reading now?" "Uh, 14." "We're clear." "Okay, so if a spike in the K-Index means more lightning, then we can tell if they're coming." "Yeah." " This is good." " Yeah." "Actually..." "This is really bad." "It's a relic." "What's a relic?" "An object with a fixed association to the past." "Jake's ID was left behind after he was taken." "And Gwen found her sister's bracelet on her bedroom floor." "How can someone be erased, and still leave something behind?" "A conservation of mass." "The total mass of any isolated system remains constant." "So, even the Ghost Riders have a weakness." "A relic would be proof that Stiles existed." "And maybe we can bring him back." " We need to hide them." " We need to fight them." "We need to hide them." " Who's "them?"" " The Ghost Riders." " The kids at the party." " Got it." "We could get a lightning rod." "Attract the Ghost Riders and catch them off guard." "But since everyone from the party is in danger, all we need to do is find a safe place to hide them until the storm passes." "The Ghost Riders ride the lightning." "Nowhere is safe." "It is, if we're underground." "The Earth can ground the lightning's electrical charge." "Everyone would be safe." "Okay..." "Here's what we're gonna do." "We take everyone into the Argent Bunker." "It's underground." "It's lined with mountain ash." "We stopped the Ghost Riders last night." "We can do it again." "You didn't stop them." "They just retreated." "We don't know why." "Okay." "How do we get everyone inside the bunker?" "Is this a joke?" "No." "And you got to take this seriously." "Once we're all in the bunker, we'll be fine." "I'm not gonna miss the first game of the year so that you can make captain." "They're a supernatural forces of nature coming to erase your soul." "It was a man in a hat with a gun." "And he's coming back to shoot you in the head." "You want to search my house?" "People are leaving things behind." "So if Stiles left anything..." "Why, why would it be there?" "You can't just erase people." "They leave things behind." "I couldn't sleep last night." "So, um, I got up, figured I'd do some paperwork." "The files were in the back of my car." "So, I, I go to the garage, and some junk has fallen off a shelf and I," "I stubbed my toe on an old baseball bat." "Without thinking I yelled a name..." "Stiles." "Why are we underground?" "This is the way to the bunker." "You guys have a bunker?" "Who are you people?" "We're the people who know things about the things that most people don't know about." "What?" "Just keep moving." "Liam..." "Where's Gwen?" "I wouldn't touch that." "What's all this for?" "Your protection." "Hey, we're missing three, plus Gwen." "They're all lacrosse players." "They were at the party, so they know what's coming." "People see what they want to see." "Guys, we're running out of time." "Scott, we have to get them." "I'll go." "The rest of you stay here." "We couldn't fight off one Ghost Rider." "Who knows how many are gonna be there tonight?" "We're going with you." "You're marked." "So am I." "Yeah, me too, but at least I can see them coming." "All right." "But if you see them coming..." "Run." "Is there anything I can do to help?" "No." "But thank you, Mrs. Stilinski." "Well, good luck." "I'll leave you to it." "You didn't see it, did you?" "See what?" "It's right in front of your face." "What are you doing?" "You're hurting me." "I'm sorry." "I shouldn't have done that." "I think that's something we can agree on." "Thanks for coming." "You need my help?" "I need a babysitter." "I'm not the babysitting type." "Coyotes eat their young." "You could've killed me last night." "Or worse, Melissa." "But I can help you." "Aren't you the one who shot me?" "I come from a family of hunters." "It's our job to deal with situations that an ordinary person..." "Job stress?" "You know that bloodlust you felt?" "Oh, I've seen that look before." "When I was your age, I saw someone lose control and slaughter an innocent." "And I did nothing." " I'm not that werewolf." " No, it wasn't a werewolf." "It was a hunter." "And she made excuses." "Made a very convincing case that lethal force was necessary." "But it wasn't." "And if I had done something that night, then maybe my sister wouldn't be the monster that she is today." "Kate." "Animals lose control." "You're not just an animal, Malia." "You're also a human." "You stay that way by getting involved." "What are you doing here?" "I asked her to come." "And I asked you not to touch anything else." "Look, how much longer do we have to be down here?" "As long as it takes." "Okay, I'll stay." "You've shot enough people for one day." "I'm not waiting in a bunker to get taken." "You have no idea what you're up against." "Last night, it took all of us to stop one of them." "If you go out there, they'll take you too." "They'll find me wherever I am." "Just like Phoebe." "I'm sorry we couldn't protect her." "But we can protect you." "Don't worry." "When it happens, you won't remember me." "It doesn't have to happen." "You want them to take you." "What's the plan?" "Convince Okafur, Steinbach, and Wallace that playing tonight is a bad idea." "You've read everything there is to know on the Ghost Riders." "Yeah." "And you're the only one of us who's figured anything out." "Have you come across anything that could stop them?" "Not yet." "But I can try." "Do that." "I can do this." "I can do this." "I can do this." "You're late, McCall!" "Why aren't you people dressed?" "Get your asses moving." "Everyone on the field!" "Hustle!" "Hustle!" "Hustle!" "We'll never get them back into the bunker now." "Get dressed." "Because there's only one way to keep them safe." "Play the game." "Were you tearing Claudia Stilinski's wallpaper off her wall?" "No." "Maybe." "Yes." "She's worried about your mental health." "I saw someone in the hallway." "Someone Mrs. Stilinski didn't see." "Well, if Claudia is not seeing ghosts, maybe it's because she's not a Banshee." "I think he was trying to help me find something Stiles left behind." "A relic." "Did you?" "No." "Mrs. Stilinski asked me to leave before I could find anything." "Probably because you were tearing her wallpaper." "Oh, honey." "I've known Claudia since high school." "I trust her." "Do you know what a confirmation bias is?" "The tendency to interpret information in a way that confirms an existing preconception." "Yes." "It's a biased perspective." "You're looking for proof to support what you already believe is true." "Because you want it to be true." "Stiles is real." "I know it." "But do you believe there's a possibility he's not?" "Okay." "Tell me everything you know." "I'll be your unbiased perspective." "I'll take Steinbach and Wallace." "You take Gwen." "You're on Okafur." "What if I see Ghost Riders?" "Yell." "Then get ready to fight." "Find your own space." "You wanna back off?" "Go, Liam, go!" "Come on, man." "There's no ghosts out here, McCall." "What are you doing out there?" "I'm gonna kill the three of you." "Do these guys ever practice?" "Not enough." "It's just first period." "They could still win." "How do you know that they can't get in and shoot all of us?" "I'll never graduate." "I'll never do anything." "This is it!" "Give me the stun gun." "Can you think of a better, less-seizure inducing way?" "Don't any of you get it?" "We are never leaving this place." "Jayden." "It's okay." "Before they get in here, they got to go through us." "What if that's not enough?" "No one is getting through that door." "Nathan's missing." "On your knees." "Yes." "Yes." "Yes." "Yes!" "Wrong team." "Sorry." "Yes, Dunbar!" "That's the kind of passion I want to see." "Unleash hell!" "What's gotten into everyone?" "What if it's the Wild Hunt?" "What if it's affecting everyone?" "It's Parrish." "He's the reason the Ghost Rider left the party." " Parrish?" " Call on your sister." "Tell her we need to meet Parrish at the school right now." "What about Gwen?" "What about the other players?" "We have to keep them safe." "Parrish could keep everyone safe." "They're here." "Liam!" "I see 'em!" "What happens if he gets out?" "He'll break the seal." "This way." "Oh, come on, ref!" "This is barely a thunderstorm!" "Okay." "We've got all three, right?" "Scott, there were four." "Why did you call me?" "The Ghost Riders are afraid of you." "What?" "How do you know?" "You're the reason he left Gwen." "You can stop them." "We need you." "The other you." "You were good back there with Jayden." "Thanks." "I still want to kill Nathan." "At this point, so do I. Which way?" "This way." "Are you okay?" "Oh, my God!" "They're real!" "We got to get out of here!" "Stay together." "We'll protect you." "How?" "Run!" "Stay close!" "I can still see them!" "Liam!" "We can't stop 'em!" "Protect Gwen!" "You want what?" "You want what?" "Claudia's medical records." "Just for a minute." "We know it's a lot to ask." "It's up there." "It's way up there." "As the more recently enlightened of the two of us, just trust me." "There are lives at stake." "Letting the two of you look at private medical records is completely and utterly against hospital regulations." "So, we better make this fast." "You lost it?" "No." "I don't know." "Maybe." "It's like he was right here." " But no Nathan." " He's still here." "I know it." "Nathan, I know you're there." "How?" "CHRIS:" "Stay put." "We're coming to get you." "No, you're not." "He's moving." "You need to stop running." "You're gonna lead them right to us!" "Nathan!" " Shoot him." " Did you listen to my story?" "Just clip him." "You clipped me." "You healed." "Come on." "We're wasting time." "Stay back." "Come on!" "No!" "No!" "Nathan!" "Nathan!" "We can keep you safe!" "Bull." "I'm out of here." "Sorry, guys." "According to her medical records," "Claudia never had children." "Well, but she had..." "Frontotemporal dementia." "There must be a mistake." "How long ago?" "She seems fine now." "Ten years?" "I'm surprised she's still alive, honestly." "It's a miracle." "Everyone from the bunker has been taken." "Everyone?" "How?" "It doesn't matter how." "Malia is at the hospital." "Argent's been hurt." "My mom's with them." "Scott." "Tonight..." "No." "Hey, it's not your fault." "It's mine." "We should have done both." "Defend the bunker and use a lightning rod." "It would've given us a better chance." "You okay?" "No." "There he is." "Look at that." "The humility." "The grace." "Sure, that wasn't lacrosse we played out there tonight." "That was la-crap!" "But you..." "You stayed on the field while the rest of these losers ran inside." "Coach, we lost." "We lost everything." "Listen to the despair." "The rage simmering underneath it." "See that, people?" "He still thinks he can win." "That's why next time he will win." "Because he will find a way." "Now, show your new captain some love, you pukes!" "I said, "Show him some love!"" "Liam!" "Liam!" "Liam!" "Is he okay?" "He has blunt force trauma to his temporal bone, three broken ribs, and multiple surface lacerations which seem to be from" "whip marks?" "What he needs is a lot of rest." "What happened?" "The Ghost Riders took everyone." "We barely slowed them down." "Tell us you found something." "I found out Claudia never had children." "So, Stiles can't be her son." "What about a relic?" "There never was a Stiles, was there?" "It doesn't even sound like a real name." "We have to keep looking." "Check the school records again." "Or call Scott's dad..." "We're fighting the wrong battle." "We're trying to bring Stiles back." "The Ghost Riders came back." "We still have no way of stopping them." "And whatever they are, they're real." "We can't keep chasing someone who isn't." "He didn't leave anything behind." "Just us." " Liam?" " What are you still doin' here?" "Everyone's gone." "Literally." "And we should go too." "Do you want a ride?" "I want to catch one." "What do you wanna catch one?" "One of the Ghost Riders?" "Yeah." "Go home." "We're not going." "We're not leaving you." "Somebody just made team captain, right?" "Yeah." "Guess I did." "Then what do we do?" "We catch a Ghost Rider."
