Scenes with Mason 36
MasonLook, Scott's going to have a plan. They always do. A couple of weeks ago, he brought Hayden in here with cell phone jammers to block the frequency of the Dread Doctors--
[Suddenly, Mason has a dawning realization and gasps in shock]
Mason
Follow me. It's frequency-- every time the Beast shows up. Liam and Hayden saw it at the cell transmission towers. The attack downtown happened right near the Radio-Astronomy Observatory. Uh, Deaton was attacked by the Beast at an Army base which has huge radar arrays...
Mason
The Beast always shows up near a transmission source. What if that's how the Dread Doctors are doing it? By broadcasting a high-frequency transmission?
So, we should be looking for some kind of transmission?
Mason
We don't have to look. The local news always covers the game. There could be two, maybe three vans-- all of them transmitting.
[horrified] Are you saying that thing's going to be out there tonight?
Mason
I'm saying... People are going to die. A lot of people.
[Mason and Corey have just awakened in the sewer after the revelation that Mason is the Beast]
Mason
Okay, hold on. It's not me. I'm not even a genetic chimera...
You sure about that? It was on the bus, after I made us disappear... I felt something. I don't know how to describe it, but it felt wrong. Completely and totally wrong. And trust me, every other second I'm with you, it's completely and totally right.
[Mason has just started to transform into the Beast]
Mason
That's not... my name.
[Stiles has just rushed away from Natalie and runs into Liam, Mason, and Hayden, which causes him to be relieved as he addresses Liam and Hayden due to their encounter with the Riders the previous evening]
You two, you two have to listen to me right now-- Alex is gone, just like his parents, okay? The Ghost Riders took him, so you guys, you can't be alone. You gotta stick with Scott or with me, because I can see them.
[Liam, Mason, and Hayden all look at Stiles as though he is crazy, and Stiles' is clearly impatient with them]
Why the hell are you looking at me like that?
[Hayden turns to whisper in Liam's ear]
[whispers back] I don't even know if he goes here...
[Mason looks at Stiles with a kind and patient expression]
Mason
Do you go to this school? What's your name?
[Mason and Corey have just met up in the school library to discuss their encounter with the Ghost Riders the previous night]
Mason
I've read everything about the Wild Hunt. You know, how they come in by storm, collecting souls, riding lightning... But, I just don't know why they're here. You know, they're Ghost Riders-- what were they doing in a school library? What are they doing here?
[Mason suddenly gets an idea]
Mason
I just had a feeling.
Mason
We only saw them because of your power. What if you have some kind of special ability no one knows about?
[Corey looks alarmed by this theory]
Mason
So, what do you feel?
[sighs] When the Ghost Riders were up there... I think they were holding something. Why can't we remember what happened?
Mason
What if they weren't holding something... But someone.
[Mason and Corey are in the administrative office of the high school, attempting to look at the list of absent students, when Natalie catches them and pulls the clipboard out of their hands]
You want to see the absentee list?
Mason
Yes...
[Mason makes a face and hesitates for a moment before replying]
Mason
...Werewolf stuff.
[Natalie's eyes widen in frustration and annoyance]
I thought I made it clear that Beacon Hills High School is a dedicated safe space? I had to convince twenty-three students that what they saw in the library last semester was a large bear, and that the fangs on Scott McCall were the result of acute teenage hallucination syndrome.
[confused] What is teenage hallucination syndrome?
[After failing to get answers from Natalie, Mason and Corey have gone to the Sheriff's station, where they're talking to Parrish as he puts away files]
Mason
No one's unaccounted for?
[impatiently] You can reword the question as much as you like-- the answer's still "No."
Mason
[sighs] Does your Hellhound intuition sense something wrong with the supernatural?
[rolls his eyes] I'm a harbinger of death, not a harbinger of kidnapping. I'm also a Sheriff's deputy working on an unsolved murder that, for once, doesn't involve shapeshifters, resurrected 18th-century serial killers, or me. It's just a straightforward robbery-homicide.
[Mason and Corey both look appalled by this assessment]
Mason
"Straightforward?" He was bludgeoned to death and stuffed in a high school air duct!
[sarcastically] And I already have your statement. Have a great day, Mason. You, too, Corey.
I have to get out of here.
Mason
No! If you leave, these rumors never stop. You've gotta just convince them that you're a regular kid.
Mason
Look, remember what Scott said? Be Clark Kent.
Clark Kent turns into a guy in a red and blue outfit and a cape. I turn into a monster with claws and fangs!
[while talking on the phone with Mason] Did it work?
Mason
Yup. Nolan's right behind me. Like, literally right behind me. He's driving a bright red car. He's actually terrible at this.
