[Tracy has just scratched Dr. Deaton, Malia, Stiles, and Scott, all of whom have fallen paralyzed to the floor. Tracy then breaks the mountain ash barrier and escapes]
[weakly] It wasn't a werewolf...
Kanima.

[Liam, Brett, and Mason have found the hole in the woods that they believe Liam fell into the previous night]
Liam, I thought you said this was a sinkhole.
It's a hole. What's the difference?
I mean, look at all these handprints, and look at all this dirt.
She didn't fall in here...
...She was buried.
[nods] Intense.
[to Scott and Stiles] Let me help. It doesn't have to mean I'm part of the pack, or like you've accepted me, or anything like that. It just means I can help catch this girl. Scott, I can help you.
[Malia has just snapped Tracy out of her night terror after an extended fight]
Tracy? Tracy-- no, no, no. Look at me. You're not dreaming. This is real. All-All of this is real. You get it? You get that? You're not dreaming, Tracy.
[scared] What's happening to me?
[about Tracy] Her condition is terminal.
[Parrish is in the middle of a flashback to a few days/weeks ago, when he and Lydia were sitting at his desk at the Sheriff's station. Lydia has just pulled out a lighter]
You gonna do a magic trick?
[smiles] No, but you are.
I only know one trick, and it's with a playing card.
Well, this one involves a lighter and your hand.
[gives her a look] This is sounding less like a magic trick and more like assault.
[shrugs] It's a little dangerous, yes. But, it's not as bad as being lit on fire in a Deputy Sheriff's car. Which, by the way, you walked away from unscathed.
[smiles] Not entirely-- I had to pay for the uniform!
When you were looking at me, your eyes kind of drifted. What were you thinking about?
[nervously] A dream.
What dream?
I've had it here and there for about six months. I'm walking in the woods, carrying a body... but it's completely burned. I can't see who it is, or who it was.
Where are you taking it?
A clearing. There's a huge tree in the middle of it. You'd think it was a thousand years old, but it's been cut down. It's just a stump.
[frowns] It's real. It's a real tree, in a real part of Beacon Hills. It used to be the center of a grove of trees called a Nemeton.
What's a Nemeton?
A sacred meeting place for Celtic Druids. They were scientists and healers thousands of years ago.
[confused] I've never seen this place...
But that's why you're here. It drew you here. That's what it does. It's a beacon for supernatural creatures... It might even make them more powerful. What else happens?
[nervously] I put the body down. I... I lay it down on the rings of the tree, and...
...What?
[lies] Nothing. That's it. That's the end of the dream.
[Deaton has just arrived at the McCall house, where he has interrupted Scott and Kira kissing in the living room]
Sorry to interrupt.
[Deaton starts pulling out jars that have werewolf claws, kanima scales, and harpy eagle talons in them from his bag]
A werewolf with the talons of an eagle-- possibly a shapeshifter known in Eastern mythology as a garuda. Tracy's claws-- the unmistakable claws of a werewolf. But, a werewolf who also bears the venom and the scales of a kanima.
What do you even call that?
Personally, I call it "terrifying." But, at the moment, I'm more interested in how Tracy was able to get across the mountain ash.
[confused] I thought no supernatural can do that.
As did I. So, if Tracy was able to cross the mountain ash, and no supernatural can do that...
Tracy's not a supernatural.
Exactly. If she wasn't born, and she wasn't bitten, she had to have been made.
"Made?"
Someone is trying to make supernatural creatures with non-supernatural means. And, whoever they are, they're somehow managing to blur the lines between science and the supernatural.
What are we supposed to do?
Same thing you've always done. Protect your friends. Protect each other.
[worriedly] So, what about someone like Tracy?
I wish I could tell you.
How scared should we be?
I've lived in the world of the supernatural a long time. But, I'm still a doctor. Still a man of science. Something like this happens, it rattles the foundation of everything you believe. Something like this shakes you to the core.
Something like what?
The rules-- the rules have changed.
[Theo has come down to the basement of the Dread Doctors' lab to talk to Donovan, who is still strapped to an exam table]
You're lucky they're allowing me to talk to you. They don't usually do that. They're not giving me much time, either. See, these guys? They... They believe in numbers, and their results. They'll weigh the pros and cons, and they'll decide pretty quickly.
[angrily] Decide what?
Whether or not you die.
[Theo holds up a file in his hands to show Donovan]
By the way, this is your psych evaluation from when you applied to be a Sheriff's deputy. Multiphasic Personality Inventory. You know what that is? It's a test that assesses abnormal behavior. It's supposed to be able to tell when you're lying, or being defensive, or if you're a total psycho. Your results were pretty disappointing, Donovan. You scored high on the Psychopathic Deviant scale. And that? That's bad. I'm not even going to get into your Anger Expression Inventory. Just this one quote here at the end-- "Not suitable for law enforcement." It sucks, right? I mean, you never get to be a cop like your dad. But, it doesn't matter, because... You've got something else now. Power-- real power. Strength, speed, heightened senses. So, what do you do with power like that? I know what you're thinking-- Go after Stilinski. Break his legs, cut off his ears... pull out his teeth? Problem is, though... Sooner or later, physical pain, it's... it's manageable. See, real pain is emotional pain. That is the kind of pain that lasts. And, if you want to cause Stilinski that devastating, soul-crushing emotional pain? You don't go after him-- you go after someone he loves.
[Liam and Mason are walking to a club]
Can you put your phone away from five minutes? Scott can howl if he needs you.
[sighs] I just feel like I should be doing something.
You are! You're my wingman tonight. And, considering the state of my dating life, I need a wingman, co-pilot, and a really hot flight attendant.
I'm definitely not your hot flight attendant.
[Melissa has called Scott and Kira to the hospital, where Scott has taken the pain of a teenage boy named Corey who was in excruciating pain as the result of an injury]
Let me see it. Let me see his arm.
[Melissa removes the bandage on Corey's arm, revealing a huge, weeping wound that is producing a brown slimy substance]
Holy-- What is that?
The lab says scorpion venom.
Scorpion?
I know. But, that's not the weirdest part... Because a sting this bad means that he should have been dead ten hours ago, and the scorpion that stung him would have been ten feet tall.
[horrified] Please tell me that doesn't mean there's a giant scorpion running around Beacon Hills...
[weakly] Lucas... It was Lucas.
[Mason and Lucas are in a secluded corner of Sinema, where they're flirting with each other. Mason sees the movie being projected on the wall and recognizes it]
Night of the Living Dead.
LLucas
What, the movie?
Yeah, it's one of the first classic zombie movies. Have you never seen it?
LLucas
Never. How does it end?
[shrugs] The zombies pretty much win. All the good guys die.
LLucas
[walks closer to him] So, I guess it's better to be one of the bad guys.
[nervously] Maybe... sometimes.
