[Meredith is in Lydia's mind through their banshee connection, where she's teaching her how to use her voice as a weapon with little success]

How did you learn?

[nervously] It doesn't matter. You have to find your own way.

What if your way works for me too?

[urgently] Lydia-- find your way.

[frustrated] But none of this is even real! My body's lying in a room down the hall, staring at the ceiling.

[Meredith screams at the top of her lungs with such force that Lydia is thrown backward down the hall until she slams into the far wall]

[smugly] Did that feel real?

[Scott and Stiles have just found Deputy Strauss in the hallway of the high school with a huge shotgun in his hands]

You don't think this is a bit much in terms of firepower for a high school?

SStrauss

Your dad's the one that issued us these things, and he wouldn't officially say why.

Did he say anything unofficially?

SStrauss

No, but everyone's got a theory.

What's yours?

SStrauss

[nervously] I shouldn't be talking to you guys. Don't you have class?

Come on, Strauss! What's your theory?

SStrauss

[hesitates] Do you guys believe in the supernatural?

[Stiles and Scott give each other alarmed looks]

You're still stronger than the Fox. Remember that.

[anxiously] But I'm useless without a weapon. I'm useless to my friends.

You always have a weapon-- the most powerful weapon of all.

If you tap me on the forehead and say, "Your mind is your most powerful weapon," I'm going to scream.

[laughs] I wasn't going to tap you on the forehead. But... The sword is a gateway to the Fox. And the Fox is too dangerous. [He sighs] Your mind is a weapon, Kira. Trust yourself. You can still outfox the Fox.

[Malia and Braeden are preparing to track down the Desert Wolf at the animal clinic while Theo watches them in amusement]

What's the problem?

Besides the fact that I've never seen this place beyond a few aerial photos and we're basically going in blind? [She aims her shotgun at Theo] Him.

Would you mind not pointing that thing at me?

[sighs] He's coming with us.

He tried to kill Scott!

[smirks] Technically, I did kill Scott.

[Braeden puts her finger on the trigger of her gun and sneers at him]

I should kill you.

Won't happen with a shotgun.

I did what I had to do to survive. The Dread Doctors wanted everybody dead. I convinced them that it could just be Scott.

[about the Desert Wolf] Don't be so confident. She's known to carry pretty heavy firepower.

[confused] But what do werecoyote need with guns?

There's a story. I don't know all the details, but something happened a long time ago. Somehow, she lost part of her power. She's not as fast or as strong as she used to be... But, she can still pull a trigger, and she's a perfect shot.

[Malia and Braeden are arguing over whether or not their plan to catch the Desert Wolf is a trap]

I'm not walking away on a maybe.

And I'm not walking in on so much uncertainty.

[sighs] You said you've been after her for years.

[exasperatedly] And why do you think it's been years? Because she knows what she's doing. She took Scott's boss for a reason. We don't know what it is. We don't know if she's back in Beacon Hills because she missed you all this time and can't wait for a mother-daughter reunion, or if she's planning to put a bullet in your head. We don't know anything.

We know one thing-- we know where she is. I'm going in. I have to.

Meredith, please. Tell me how you did it.

[sighs] You have to find your own way.

Why can't you tell me yours?

Because... my way got people hurt. Some days, it was quiet for me. Other days, all I could hear was screaming. People dying.

What people?

Everyone. Everywhere. I was in chemistry class when it happened. I had my hands over my ears. My teacher was trying to figure out what was wrong. I took my hands and I started hitting the desk... until I couldn't take it anymore, and I screamed.

...What happened?

All of the windows shattered. I saw kids with glass in their arms, in their faces. Some of them had blood coming out of their ears. They said it was an explosion caused by chemicals... but everyone knew it was me. Find a better way, Lydia. My voice is like a bomb going off. Yours needs to be a bullet.

[Stiles is visiting the catatonic Lydia in Eichen House]

Your teachers, uh, gave us some of the stuff you guys have been working on. They wanted us to hold onto it for you. I saw something about the, uh, Riemann Hypothesis. Um, things like... nontrivial zeros, zeta functions, and a lot of other stuff that goes totally over my head. Maybe you can wake up and explain it to me? [Stiles hesitates and sighs] Oh, come on, Lydia. You have to come back to us. There's no way we're getting through this without you. Lydia, you have to wake up.

I was just trying to do something right.

You do a lot right.

Yeah, but I did one thing really wrong.

Hayden's alive. Everything before that doesn't matter.

It should. I feel like I have to do more than just say sorry.

[amused] Actually... you still haven't done that.

[sighs] Back at my old school, at Devenford... I got into a fight with this kid. I knocked two of his teeth out. They made me write a letter of apology. We both knew it meant nothing. We both knew that sooner or later, we're gonna get into another fight. I can't just say I'm sorry. I feel like I have to do something. Like, maybe... somehow... I have to save your life.

[smiles] Don't worry. I'm pretty sure you'll get a chance.

[Scott and Liam have just found Argent hiding in the Dread Doctors' laboratory. Scott senses Gerard's presence and gives Argent a hilariously disappointed look]

You didn't.

I had to.

[smiles] Hello, Scott.

[Scott's eyes flare red as Gerard approaches him, and Gerard looks genuinely surprised]

I haven't seen that color on you. It suits you.

[to Scott] Who's the old guy?

[laughs] Uh, at the moment, they would call me a necessary evil. But you can call me Gerard.

[to Argent] What were you thinking?

That we need him.

He's right. If you want to catch a werewolf like the Beast of Gévaudan, you're going to need more than one Argent.

[sighs] He knows all the stories. All the folklore. Everything written, and everything passed down.

[Argent and Gerard have just showed Scott and Liam the fresco painting with the two beast-like creatures fighting each other]

The one on the right is the Beast of Gévaudan.

Do you know what the other one is?

The Hellhound. The guardian of supernatural places. They're both creatures of the night. But you may know them as ordinary creatures during the day. And, most likely, neither of them know what they are.

[Gerard has just pulled out a blowtorch as Argent starts to move closer to Parrish]

You said you came to Beacon Hills because you felt drawn here. You hid the bodies of the Chimeras. You've got a resistance to fire.

[Argent grabs Parrish by the arms and pins them behind his back as Gerard aims the blowtorch at his face]

We were wondering... Just how flame retardant are you, Deputy?

What the hell are you doing?

[Parrish has just revealed his Hellhound nature to Gerard and Argent, shocking even himself]

Hellhound?

[Argent nods at him. Parrish glares at Gerard]

And what if you were wrong? Would you have burned my eye out?

[smiles] Yeah.

[Parrish looks at Argent in exasperation]

This guy's your father?

[shrugs] Wasn't my choice.
