"Previously on "Teen Wolf"... [roars] What are you?" "The only person who can save your sister." "Guardians, Scott." "You help me catch her." "I'll help you get your mother and Stiles's father back." "Scott, don't do this." "Don't go with him." "Derek, look at me." "[roars]" "[smack]" "Derek?" "[grunts]" "Derek, come on!" "[frantic music] [grunts]" "[grunts]" "♪" "Where is she?" "Jennifer?" "Gone with Scott's mom." " He took her?" " Yeah, and if that's not enough of a kick to the balls," "Scott left with Deucalion, okay?" "So we gotta get you out of here." "The police are coming right now, and we gotta get you the hell out of here." "Whoa." "What about Cora?" "[tires screech]" "You see the twins?" "No." "But I see the Argents." "[distant howl]" " What is it?" " A retreat." "Not to bring up uncomfortable memories, but wasn't the last time you saw them the time you killed Kate and then they burned you alive, hmm?" " Where are the others?" " I don't know." "Scott and Stiles went back for Derek and Jennifer." "I had to get Cora out." "Where's Scott and Stiles?" "Stiles is still at the hospital." "He's gonna hold off the cops for us." "We have to go right now." "What about Scott and Melissa?" "Jennifer took Melissa." "What about Scott?" "Derek, where's Scott?" "[sirens wailing] [indistinct chatter]" "[sighs] Oh, just perfect." "A Stilinski at the center of this whole mess." "What a shocker." "Think you can answer some questions without the usual level of sarcasm?" "If you ask the questions without the usual level of stupid." "Where's your dad, and why's no one been able to contact him?" "I don't know." "I haven't seen him in hours." "Is he drinking again?" "[sighs]" "What do you mean, again?" "He never had to stop." "But he did have to slow down." "Is he drinking like he used to?" "All right, how about this?" "Next time I see him," "I'll give him a field sobriety test, okay?" "We'll do the alphabet, start with "f,"" "end with "u."" "How about you just tell me what the hell happened here?" "[exhales]" "I don't know what happened here." "I was stuck in the elevators the whole time." "You're not the one who put the name on the doors, are you?" "What name?" "[ominous music]" "♪ [elevator dings]" "♪ Teen Wolf: "Alpha Pact" ♪ Season 3 Episode 11" "Original Airdate Aug. 12, 2013" "♪" "[gasping]" "She's dying, isn't she?" "I don't know." "So what are you gonna do?" "I don't know." "Want to figure something out?" "Because while Scott and Stiles were out there trying to help people from being killed, you were in here, rolling around the sheets with the actual killer." "Do you get how many people she's killed?" "Erica and Boyd are dead, Cora is dying, and you are doing nothing!" "Why'd you do this to us, Derek?" "Was it all about the power?" "Were you bored?" "Were you lonely?" "Maybe." "I told Cora I wouldn't leave." "I'll help the others when I figure out how to help her." "There's no time!" "[tense music]" "♪" "The full moon's coming." "The sheriff and Melissa are gonna be dead, so I'm gonna try and help them." "You can sit here and perfect the art of doing nothing." "[door slams]" "I wouldn't take it personally." "Anger is just a tool." "He's using it to excuse shifting allegiance from one alpha to another." "From you to Scott." "Scott's not an alpha yet." "But he's on his way, isn't he?" "The word is guardian, Allison." "More than anyone, you know that's a role" "I haven't exactly lived up to lately." "But she took Scott's mother and Stiles's father." "That's not a coincidence." "Yeah, I'd also consider the fact that someone put your name up in large block letters on the elevator doors." "That kind of felt like a warning to me." "I think it might be Morrell." "She knows a lot more than she lets on, and she might even be trying to help us." "Well, she needs to get on that a lot faster, okay?" "Seeing as how the lunar eclipse is less than two freaking nights away." "Stiles, don't give up hope." " They could already be dead." " I don't think so." "There's something about Jennifer's tactics." "It's like she's still positioning, still moving pieces into place." "And you're one of them." "Then let's not wait around to see the next move." "Everything she's done has been on a Telluric current, so Melissa and the sheriff have to be somewhere on one of those currents, right?" "Stiles, if we're gonna find them, we need your help." "You seriously want to go after her?" "I mean, what if she just takes you like the others, huh?" "No offense, but what's the difference between you and them?" "I'm carrying a .45." "Maybe she can heal from a shot to the leg and a few slashes to the face, but personally, I'd like to see how she holds up with half her skull blown off." "We've got one priority right now, and that is to find Melissa and your dad." "We've got a map and every clue we need to figure this out." "The only thing we don't have is time, which is why I need both of you." "[sighs]" "Where do we start?" "The place where the sacrifices have been committed have usually been different from where the bodies have been found." "I think the placement has to do with the strength of the current, so there's the school, the animal clinic, the bank." "Wait a sec, she wouldn't use the same place twice, would she?" "Only if she didn't succeed the first time." " Scott's boss." " Deaton." "It was her only failure." "That could mean something." "That's just one place so far." "We're gonna need a lot more help." "What about Lydia?" "Lydia?" "What can she do?" "Uh, Lydia's got sort of a talent." "She somehow ended up finding a couple of the bodies, um, without actually looking for them." "What is she?" "Psychic?" "She's something." "[gasping] [tense music]" "♪" "[both breathing heavily]" "Careful." "[panting]" "Don't worry." "I know going too far could kill me." "That's not exactly what I meant." "[electronic music]" "♪" "Whoa." "[gun clicks]" "I thought you guys were retired." "Retired, yes." "Defenseless, no." "Make sure your phone's on." "If you hear from Scott, you let us know immediately." "Yeah, I'm thinking that's gonna be kind of unlikely." "Both of you, try to remember he's just doing what he thinks is right." "I can't shoot a gun or use a crossbow, but..." "Well, I'm..." "I'm getting pretty good with these." "I've heard it's something only an alpha can do, and with good reason." "Which is?" "You know normal wolves never abandon an injured member of the pack." "They care for it." "They bring it food from a kill and then regurgitate it into the mouth of the injured wolf." "They even give it physical and emotional comfort by intensely grooming it." "In a way, they can do more than just ease pain." "They can be instrumental in healing their own." "If you're trying to tell me I can save her, just tell me." "I'm telling you..." "I've heard it's possible." "How?" "It's that spark of power that makes you an alpha." "When you take her pain, she draws on the power that provides you with those special gifts." "The power that heightens your senses, your strength." "The power that transforms your body." "As an alpha, you have that bit of extra, that spark intensifies the color of your eyes from a bright yellow into a searing red." " If I can save her..." " If." "If." "I didn't say it works every time." "It could just as easily kill you." "How do I do it?" "By taking her pain?" "And then some." "Because there's a cost." "[mellow music]" "Okay, sweetheart, this is not a problem." "Having gotten my share of hickeys in high school," "I developed some patented cover-up methods." "If you don't want to go to school, honey, you don't have to." "That's not it." "It's just..." "Someone tried to strangle me..." "And I survived." "♪" "I don't need to hide that." "♪" "No." "No, you don't." "♪" "But we're still gonna do your hair, right?" "Of course we are doing my hair." "[laughs] [door creaks] [foreboding music]" "♪" "It's empty." "Be careful anyway." "[flicks baton]" "I thought you only used those on werewolves." "I do." "[gasps] [grunts]" " What the hell are you doing?" " I'm sorry." "But you're just gonna have to trust me on this." "I knew for a long time she didn't just operate on the currents." "She was in sync with them." "[faint whirring] [dramatic choral music]" "♪" "Now this is a sacrifice." "♪ [whirring]" "I don't believe it." "Scott can't really be with them." "He can't be." "You didn't see the look on his face, though." "It was..." "Then what can I do?" "I mean, I get that I'm some kind of, like, human geiger counter for death, but..." "I don't know how to turn it on and off yet." "All I know is that she tried to kill me because of..." "Because of what?" "Hey, Lydia, what?" "When she called me a banshee, she was surprised by it." "What if that's not why she tried to kill me?" "Then why did she?" "That's what we need to find out." "[gasps]" "Why did he do that?" "I don't know." "We need to go." "Okay?" "We need help." "[dramatic music]" "♪" "Allison..." "Allison, we have to go." "They're all gonna die." "Aren't they?" "[breathing shakily]" "♪" "I can understand not seeing a downside to this, as you haven't exactly been alpha of the year, but think about what else you'd be losing." "I don't care about power." "Not anymore." "What about the power to fight back?" "Correct me if I'm wrong, but Kali's ultimatum still stands." "The full moon is tomorrow night, and if you couldn't beat her as an alpha, how do you think you're gonna fare as a beta?" "I don't care." "What if this was exactly what Jennifer was hoping for?" "She would know the only way for you to save Cora would be giving up your power." "Maybe that's what she was gonna have you do at the hospital." "Why?" "So that you wouldn't be able to face the alphas without her." "She wants you to come to her." "It's all part of her little seduction, and she is still seducing you." "She needs you on her side." "Aiden's not texting me back." "[indistinct chatter]" "Okay, well, maybe we could just..." "We could go over there and..." "[phone vibrates]" "What?" "Oh, god." "What is it now?" "It's from Isaac." "Jennifer, she t..." "She has Allison's father." "She took him." "She's got all three now." "There's still time." "[heart pounding]" "We still have time, right?" "[gasping] Stiles?" "[voice echoing] Are you okay?" "What is it?" "What's wrong?" "Stiles." "I think I'm having a panic attack." "[gasping]" "[gasps]" "You okay over there?" "[panting]" "Chris?" "It's Chris, right?" "Yeah." "Oh." "[chuckles]" "Is it just me, or has somebody been here before?" "Years ago." "[grunting]" "Hate to disappoint you, but we watched her take your ankle knife." "And the knife that's in your sleeve." "And the switchblade in your other sleeve." "[groans] [grunting]" "And the taser in your jacket pocket." "[suspenseful music]" "♪" "Argent..." "The french word for silver." "Ah, ah, ah." "Interesting how truth becomes altered by legend..." "When it's not actually the metal silver that kills werewolves but the family." "What's the Argent code again?" ""We hunt those who hunt us"?" "I hope you don't mind if I borrow it for a little while, since I've been hunted myself." "Don't pretend like we have the same cause." "I don't kill innocent people." "That's why they call it a sacrifice, and I wish it worked another way." "But think about what you're doing." "You are making this town..." "Even this world..." "safer for your children." "Well..." "[chuckles]" "Most of them." "[panting] Okay." "Come on." "Come on." "[gasping]" "Just try and think about something else, anything else." " Like what?" " Uh, happy things." "Good things." "Uh, friends, family." "[gasping] Oh, I mean-not family." "Oh, god." "Okay, uh, just..." "Try and slow your breathing." "[gasping] I can't." "I can't." "[hyperventilating]" "Shh, shh." "Stiles, look at me." "Shh, look at me." "Shh, Stiles." "[pop tune]" "♪" "Ooh." "How'd you do that?" "I, uh..." "I read once that..." "Holding your breath could stop a panic attack." "So when I kissed you..." "You held your breath." "I did?" "Yeah." "You did." "♪ Thanks." "Really smart." "[chuckles]" "♪" "I just..." "I don't know." "I just read it somewhere." "And if I was really smart," "I would tell you to sign up for a few sessions with a guidance counselor." "[dramatic music]" "♪" "Morrell." "♪" "Are you here for Ms. Morrell?" "No, I thought this was gym class." "Sweetheart, we're not in the mood for funny." "Do you know where she is?" "If I did, I wouldn't be waiting here for 20 minutes." "So how about you two back out the door and wait your turn?" " We're not here for a session." " Well, I am." "And I've got some serious issues to work on." "Hey, wait, wait." "You're Danielle." "You're heather's best friend." "I was heather's best friend." "We've been working on that issue three times a week." "Hold on, did you say Ms. Morrell's 20 minutes late?" "And I don't know why either." "She's always on time." "I was seeing her at the beginning of the semester." "She was never late." "Then she's not late." "She's missing." "What if we're not the only ones who think she knows something?" "Then I want to know what she knows." " What are you doing?" " Trying to find her." " Those files are private." " Yeah, she's kind of right." "That one's yours." "Let me see that." "Wait, Lydia, that's your drawing." "Yeah, I know." "It's a tree." "Yeah, good too." " Thank you." " No." "But that's the same one, though." "Same as what?" "The same one I always see you drawing in class." "It's a tree." "I like drawing trees." "No, but it's the exact same one." "Don't you see?" "Give me your bag." "There, see?" "[eerie music]" "♪" "Okay, you can have my session." "You got bigger issues." "[gasping] What is this?" "I know where they are." "It's the nemeton." "That's where she's keeping them." "It has to be..." "Stilinski." "Agh." "All right, look, go to Derek, okay?" "He and Peter, they've been there before, so they'll know where it is." "Tell them it's the root cellar, all right?" "They'll know." "Did you know your dad's car is in the school parking lot and has been since last night?" "No." "What does that mean?" "It means he's officially missing." "Stiles, why am I getting the feeling you know something that could help us find your dad?" "If I did, why would I not tell you?" "If it meant helping your dad, why wouldn't you?" "So you're asking me to tell you what I wouldn't not tell you?" "First, I have no idea what you just said." "Second, how about you just help me help you?" "Well, I don't know how to help you help me tell you something that would help you if I don't know it." "Are you doing this on purpose?" "I don't know anything, okay?" "Can I just go?" "Where are your other friends?" " You mean Scott?" " I mean Scott." "I mean Isaac Lahey, Allison Argent, these twins Ethan and Aiden." "I've been told your whole little cliqué didn't show up at school today." " I don't have a cliqué." " Stiles, come on." "There's been a pretty disturbing amount of violent activity in this county in the last few months, several murders tied to this school." "I don't know what's going on here, but it's serious." "And... hey." "Your dad is missing." "Fine." "But I don't want you going home alone." "You have someone you can stay with tonight?" "He's with me." " You." " Me." "You." "[sighs] Me." "Derek, we have a visitor." "[dramatic music]" "♪" "[distant howl] [panting, snarling]" "[growls]" "This way." "It's a firefly." "Unusual for this region." "It's because of Jennifer, isn't it?" "Just before all this started," "A deer crashed into Lydia's car." "The cats went crazy at the animal clinic." "Birds flew into the high school." "That was all her." "They say animals can sense natural disasters when they're about to happen." "Maybe they can sense supernatural ones as well." "Does she scare you?" "She concerns me if she's willing to kill that many innocent people for her cause, people like your mother and Stiles's father." "Are you willing to kill innocent people?" "I'll kill any living thing that gets in my way." "You don't know where it is?" "But Stiles said you'd been there." "We have." "But after a few memorable experiences there," "Talia..." "Derek's mother and my older sister..." "Decided that she didn't ever want us going back." "She knew how dangerous it was and took the memory of its location from us." "[eerie music]" "But then how are we supposed to find it?" "♪" "[both grunt]" "[grunts] [grunts] [growling] [growls]" "[growls] [panting]" "How did you know, Marin, that we'd come for you?" "Because Jennifer and I are the same." "And I know you've always been suspicious of us, of what we can do." "With good reason." "We know you sent that girl..." "The one who helped Isaac." " Whoa." " Isaac, get down!" "[grunts]" "What was her name?" "Braeden." "And I sent her to do what I've always done..." "Maintain balance." "What do you know about Jennifer?" "Nothing more than you know." "This isn't you, Scott." "Go back to your friends." "He can decide what's right for himself." "Not without all the information." "Have you told him everything you've done?" "How you've piled up bodies in a narcissisticaly psychotic effort to form your perfect pack?" "Bodies that include Ennis, by the way." "My brother saved him." "He was alive when Deucalion went in to see him." "He wants you to go after Derek, Kali, to force his decision." "If Derek joins the pack, it paves the way for Scott." "The lies people will tell when they're begging for their life." "Ask him." "[tense music]" "♪ [groans] [growls]" "Hey, back off." "[panting]" "[groans] [gasps]" "I'm not going to let them kill you." "But if you know something, if you know where they are..." "The nemeton..." "You find that, you'll find Jennifer." "Find the nemeton." "[sighs]" "I don't wanna kill your optimism or anything, but, you know, the both of us have been trying to do the exact same thing for hours." "You been tied up before?" "[exhales] Many times." "What, is that, uh, part of being a werewolf hunter?" "I tried to download him on as much as I could." "Yeah, I was starting to feel a little bit left out." "You knew." "I remember meeting you once, before you were sheriff." "You questioned me about a body." "You knew something was up." "You just weren't ready to believe it." "You're right." "There was a night eight years ago..." "The night my wife died." "I was at the end of a shift, and a call came in." "There had been a pile-up, and a young woman..." "She was a teenager, actually." "She was trapped under an overturned car." "We had to wait for the paramedics." "We were never getting her out." "But I was able to hold her hand." "She knew she was gonna die." "But I just kept telling her, "no, no, listen." "The paramedics are on their way."" "And then I remember, her hand suddenly gripped mine so tightly that I..." "I literally thought she was gonna break the bones." "And she looked me in the eye, and she said..." ""if you wanna be with her, go, now."" "And I knew she was talking about my wife." "But then that other part of my brain..." "The part that looks for clues, for fingerprints, for logical connections..." "that part told me that there is no way that this girl could possibly know about Claudia." "And so I stayed." "I stayed until the paramedics pulled her out." "[somber music]" "Until her heart stopped beating and they declared her dead." "When I finally got to the hospital..." "I saw Stiles sitting in the waiting room with his head in his hands because..." "He was with Claudia when she died." "♪" "But I wasn't." "I wasn't with her because I didn't believe." "I just did not believe." "It has to be on a Telluric current, or maybe even at the axis of two or where they all intersect." "I just know it's where Derek took Paige to die." "My dad and Gerard were there once." "But Gerard said it was years ago, and he couldn't remember where it was." "And my dad obviously isn't here to tell us now." "Yeah, mine either." "Then how do we find this place?" "There might be a way." "But it's dangerous." "We're gonna need Scott." "How'd you guys find out?" "Lydia." "You?" "Morrell." "None of the other alphas know where it is either." "So if this works, are you gonna tell them?" "I can't stop Jennifer without them." "How about we concentrate on finding your parents first?" "What's the plan?" "Essentially, you, Allison, and Stiles need to be surrogate sacrifices for your parents." "We die for them?" "But he can bring us back." "You can..." "you can bring us back, right?" "You remember the part where I said it was dangerous?" "If it goes right, the three of you will be dead for a few seconds, but there's something else you need to think about." "This is a dangerous thing for more reasons than one." "You'll be giving power back to the nemeton, a place that hasn't had power for a long time." "This kind of power is like a magnet." "It attracts the supernatural, the kind of things that a family like the Argents can fill the pages of a bestiary with." "It will draw them here, like a beacon." "Doesn't sound any worse than anything we've already seen." "You'd be surprised at what you have yet to see." "Is that it?" "No." "It'll also have an effect on the three of you." "You won't be able to see it, but you'll feel it every day for the rest of your lives." "It'll be a kind of a darkness around your heart, and permanent, like a scar." "Like a tattoo." "[grunts]" "What is that?" "Ultrasonic emitter..." "A smaller version of what we use to corral werewolves." "Only they hear it." "Most of the time we use it to push them away." "Let's see if it works to attract them." "[beep] [dramatic music]" "♪ [grunts]" "It's gotta be now." "I don't have a choice." "You always have a choice." "It's whether or not you can live with the consequences..." "Facing Kali as a beta." "But it's not just a full moon coming." "It's a lunar eclipse." "We'll all be powerless." "[splash]" "All right." "What did you bring?" "Um, I got my dad's badge." "Jennifer kind of crushed it in her hand, so I tried hammering it out a bit." "Still doesn't look great." "Well, it doesn't need to look good if it has meaning." "Is that an actual silver bullet?" "My dad made it." "It's kind of a ceremonial thing." "When one of us finishes learning all the skills to be a hunter, we forge a silver bullet as a testament to the code." "Scott?" "My dad got my mom this watch when she first got hired at the hospital." "She used to say it was the only thing in their marriage that ever worked." "Okay, the three of you will get in." "Each of us will hold you down until you're essentially..." "Well, dead." "But it's not just someone to hold you under." "It needs to be someone who can pull you back, someone that has a strong connection to you, a kind of emotional tether." "Lydia..." "You go with Stiles." "Are you sure?" "I mean, Scott and I both have to go under." "It's okay." "[soft music]" "♪" "[exhales]" "♪" "[all shivering]" "By the way, if I don't make it back and you do, you should probably know something." "Your dad's in town." "♪" "[dramatic music]" "♪" "[soft instrumentals]"
