Teen Wolf s04e06 Episode Script

Previously on Teen Wolf Liam, I've got a Beta.
Like, right now I could use a training manual.
I don't know why we're going after a Beta when there's an Alpha on the field.
Because an entire pack of Alphas went after McCall and he was the one left standing.
Kate was here for this.
That little pendant is training wheels.
- What are you gonna do when you find her? - Do what's necessary.
_ Eventually settling in a small town in Northern California, this family used their wealth to rebuild the community around them while remaining isolated from it.
This was sometimes more a choice than a necessity as not all of their children would become werewolves.
The ones that did, these born wolves, had to be trained.
They needed to learn control.
They had a practice from the training of Betas.
The tradition passed out through generations, and involved the use of a sacred object called a Triskelion.
Without control Violence Extreme violence Is inevitable.
Big fancy guns Coded death lists So-called assassins.
And not one of you can answer the simplest question.
Who's paying the bills? So I'll ask again.
Who is The Benefactor? I swear to God I've never seen him, never spoken to him I know.
See, everybody says the same thing.
They don't know who he is.
Where he is.
"It's all done electronically.
I can't help you.
" "Please, I'm bleeding to death.
Please stop, it hurts.
" Then what do you want with me? It's been a long time since someone's made me a mix tape.
You got one too, didn't you? No, no But I But I know who did.
They look like kids.
Like teenagers.
They're called The Orphans Wait! Wait! I'll tell you about them.
I'll tell you everything.
Just wait Guys, back off.
You can get your gear tomorrow.
If anybody sees Garrett, you notify the police immediately.
Then tell him he's off the damn team.
Dad, really.
I'm okay.
I should've been here.
And I said I would be at the games.
Well, I mean this was just a pre-season scrimmage.
I didn't even tell you about it.
But I promised your mom I'd be around so she could pick up some double shifts at the hospital.
I should've been here.
You're here now.
Jordan Parrish? Deputy Parrish.
Sheriff, what is that? Is that the weapon? Yeah.
It's a thermo-cut wire.
Parrish, hold up.
- Where's Kira? - She took off.
Stiles told her about Lydia cracking the second part of the Dead Pool.
Her mom's on it.
Everyone's on it.
- You're not.
- Not yet.
There's still another third, right? Thermo-cut wire's a very unusual weapon, Violet.
Now, we've got a file at the bureau on something similar.
Used in over a dozen murders.
I don't know what you're talking about.
I just go to school here.
Maybe we should call your parents then.
Oh, no That's right.
You don't have any parents.
That's why they call you The Orphans.
We need to find her boyfriend, Garrett.
Coach, I'm gonna need both their locker numbers.
And someone find me a set of bolt cutters.
What the hell is happening to this kid? He's been poisoned by a rare wolfsbane.
I need to make an incision and you need to hold him as still as possible.
Hey, Derek, how about a little werewolf strength? Yeah, I'm not the only one here with werewolf strength.
If you can't hold him still, the incision might kill him.
Derek, he's slipping.
I don't think I can hold him.
Ah! I guess I still have a little werewolf strength myself.
Yeah, maybe more than a little.
Hey, Doc, I don't think he's breathing.
Is he okay? I think he'll be fine, but probably out for a while.
Guys, can you hear that? I think he's saying something.
The sun The moon The truth The sun The moon The truth Three things cannot long be hidden.
The sun, the moon, and the truth.
It's Buddhist.
Satomi.
I think someone's coming.
Hurry.
You find anything? No.
Nothing.
I know that I'm a month late.
Three months? Oh.
Are you sure it's three months? Okay, I understand.
Um, but if you could just turn the power back on even for a few hours, that would be really great.
I have a refrigerator full of food that's going to go bad.
And, obviously, I don't have the money to run out and replace $300 worth of groceries.
So I am more than happy to beg.
It's not just that we were friends with them.
They were using us for their cover.
I mean, professional killers were using us.
How are you not freaking out about that? Trust me, I'm freaking out about a lot.
Liam, slow down.
Liam! Hey, Liam.
Hey, Liam.
Sorry about missing movie night.
Don't worry.
I got something else planned.
Has anyone seen Stiles, Lydia or Kira today? Malia.
Any idea where your friends are? I could try catching their scent.
Right.
How about I just mark them down as absent.
Malia.
Okay, everyone, let's begin with last night's homework.
Malia.
Malia.
Do you need to be excused from class? Yeah.
What are you doing here? Brett's still out of it.
I need to find his pack and warn them about the Dead Pool.
So what do you need me for? I know a little something about this pack.
They have a kind of secret meeting place in the woods.
No one's spent more time in the woods of Beacon Hills than you.
This is Brett's.
Breathe it in.
I'm not good at that yet.
Try it.
I'll teach you.
Focus on the different scents.
Some are tied to identity.
Others give off an emotion.
Your dad should be back within the hour.
You want to wait in his office? Actually, we want to talk to you.
Privately.
This is a hit list? We call it a Dead Pool.
Recognize any of the names? Yeah.
The Sheriff had me run a bunch of these through the system last night.
But we couldn't find any of them.
Show him the other thing.
Okay.
That's kind of terrifying.
What's the number? That's how much you're worth.
I'm worth five dollars? Five million.
I only make 40,000 a year.
Maybe I should kill myself.
I don't get it.
Why Why am I on this? Honestly, that might be a question for another day.
Right now, there's still another third of the list we gotta crack.
We need the third cipher key.
But we need help getting it.
From who? - Meredith.
- The girl from Eichen? The last time you saw her, you almost gave her a nervous breakdown.
Uh Almost.
Sorry, guys, Liam skipped my class.
Maybe he's sick.
Like me.
Liam didn't look sick on our run.
He's not getting back to any of my texts.
Mine either.
Yeah, don't worry.
I'll find him.
But text me if you see him.
All right.
Liam? Sounds like you already know the answer to that, Scott.
Where is he? Come on.
Like I'm actually going to tell you that? I'll give you the money.
Yeah, you will.
But that's not going to get you Liam back.
You're going to have to put in a little more effort than that.
What do you want? I want the money.
And Violet.
Or you never see Liam again.
Okay, what do you want? You want me to go to Stilinski? I can do that.
Or I can talk to my father.
He's an FBI agent.
You think I want you talking to anyone with a badge? I'm not getting help from a werewolf because I want him to talk to someone.
Then what am I supposed to do? They are transferring Violet to a federal facility.
- You are not gonna let that happen.
- How? They're going to put her in a car.
We're going to follow it.
We get ahead of it.
You stop it.
You want me to attack a car? That's your plan? You're an Alpha.
If you can't stop one little car, then one little Beta is going to die.
I stabbed your boy with a blade dipped in wolfsbane.
Once it gets to the heart Bad things happen.
Help.
Scott.
Is anybody there? Somebody help me, please.
Answer me! Help me! Help Scott! Scott, help me, please.
Help! Their Alpha is a woman named Satomi.
She's one of the oldest werewolves alive.
And she's learned a lot.
What does that mean? She's a bitten werewolf.
Learning control wasn't easy for her.
She did something a long time ago that changed her.
The quote is a mantra.
It helps them with control.
- What is it? - Gun powder.
If Brett's pack is out here, I don't think they're meeting.
They're hiding.
We're taking her now.
Dad, isn't that a little dangerous? I mean, Garrett's still out there.
Maybe we should let someone else do it.
I appreciate the concern, but after what happened with Katashi and losing evidence off an armored truck, I'm not letting this out of my sight.
And if you're still worried, you should know I've got Beacon Hills' finest coming with us.
This is not going to work.
All you have to do is stop the car.
I'll take care of the rest.
Oh, no, not this guy.
What the hell are we running here? A bed and breakfast? We do not just open the door for anyone with a badge.
We need to talk to Meredith Walker.
It involves a murder investigation.
Well, you can talk to her all you want, but these two, especially that one They're outta here.
They're crucial witnesses in an ongoing investigation.
I wouldn't have brought them here if it wasn't absolutely Crucial.
Okay, Deputy.
How about you come back with a court order, then I'll listen.
As for you, Mr.
Stilinski, how about you come back with payment in full.
That's right.
Daddy may be the Sheriff, but he's late on the bills.
I guess those government jobs aren't as reliable as they used to be, huh? But they do help when you need a favor.
Like, how a month ago, Canaan P.
D.
helped you get home after blowing 0.
1 on a breathalyzer.
No All right.
I'm not against a little quid pro quo.
Not at all.
Not at all.
You.
You, I like you.
I'm gonna keep you.
There's a stop sign half a mile ahead.
So I take out the tires with my claws? Teeth, claws, heat vision, whatever.
Just stop them.
You ready? Stop! Stop the car! Dad! Scott She's not in the car.
Violet's gone.
Scott, listen to me.
They're still here.
They're still here.
You want me? Come on.
Come and get me.
Come and get me.
Yeah, that's right! You're not so big.
You're not so big Scott! Meredith, what you mean you can't tell us? We just need the third key.
You can give it to us in numbers, letters, hieroglyphs.
Whatever you want.
I can't.
Then why did you give us the second key? I wanted to help.
That's what I want to do.
I want to help.
Great.
So help us now.
Okay? Give us the third cipher key.
Things have changed.
I I can't.
Why not? Guys, go easy on her.
I'm sorry.
I can't.
He He doesn't want me to.
He? Who's he? Meredith, who doesn't want you to tell us the third cipher key? The Benefactor.
Hey, there.
I was actually hoping you would be out for a few more minutes.
Scott.
This is going to hurt.
You all right? Where's my dad and the Sheriff? They're at the hospital.
They're both doing fine.
Hold this.
Mmm-hmm.
It was Kate.
It was her and the Berserkers.
We know.
But they move fast.
And they don't leave much in the way of tracks.
We have to find her.
She's got Violet.
I think Violet knows where Liam is.
Then as much as this hurt, it could probably also help.
Can you get a scent? I'm sorry.
There's nothing to be sorry about.
If they don't want to be found, then we're not going to find them.
Some werewolves have an ability.
A kind of mastery over their bodies where they can actually inhibit their scent.
They can hide from other werewolves? From anyone who's trying to find them.
So that's why nobody knew about Brett.
Same with Demarco.
Maybe we need to try something different.
Maybe we need to think like Stiles.
Like a hyperactive spaz? Like a detective.
If they're really Buddhists, then maybe instead of asking where werewolves hide, we should be asking Where would Buddhists hide.
When Buddha sat under the Bodhi tree, he looked to the east for enlightenment.
Is there some kind of eastern point in Beacon Hills? Yeah.
At Lookout Point.
No, no, no, no, no! Come on! You did that.
You went right through it.
I jumped through the window? The cuts healed while you were changing.
I guess that's one good thing.
For you.
For someone else it could be really bad.
We need to figure out how you can get a grip on this.
I've been trying to do that for years.
What does your dad say? He says when kids get angry they deal with it in one of two ways.
They either hurt themselves or they hurt someone else.
What's his name? You could just tell us his name.
Okay, you're shaking your head.
What's that mean? Does that mean you don't know? Or you don't want to help us? I can't I can't help anymore.
How do you know about him? Guys, I think we better stop.
Meredith, a lot of people are going to die if you don't tell us.
I don't I don't know.
I don't know.
Please Meredith, it's okay.
You're gonna be all right.
Please.
I don't I don't I don't know.
- Meredith.
- I said, I don't know! You've been here before? I worked here.
We used to own the building.
It was part of our business.
I've fought these things before.
They're strong.
Really strong.
That's why I brought this.
I'm good with that.
Malia? You don't smell that? Wait for me.
Right here.
You shouldn't have come.
Kate.
I'm here for Violet.
I need to talk to her.
I knew you'd find me.
But I was hoping we could do this later.
I just needed a little more time.
For what? To learn control.
Lower the gun.
We walk away.
And you don't have to get hurt.
Where's Violet? Put the gun down, Chris.
Where is she? No, no! No, no, stop! No! What happened? I think they might have been poisoned.
That's great.
If assassins with guns don't get you, then the ones with wolfsbane poison will.
Or maybe one with no mouth.
Maybe we should all be running from Beacon Hills.
Running for our lives.
As fast as we can.
Ah! No! Scott Scott.
I'm sorry.
I'm not going to find him.
There's still time, Scott.
There's still time.
Okay, well, we know one thing.
Both of the first two keys, Allison and Aiden, they're both names of the dead.
Right? But we've already tried every other dead person's name we could think of.
And if you haven't noticed, - there were a lot of tries.
- Yeah, I noticed.
You okay? The only other Banshee I've ever met.
And I think I might have just drove her over the edge.
Lydia, it wasn't your fault.
I was there, too.
And you're probably not the only Hold on.
Banshees predict death.
Right? So what if the third key is someone who isn't dead But will be.
Call Parrish.
We need to call Parrish.
You're okay, Liam.
You're okay.
What are you talking about? Lydia, Meredith's gone.
They found her an hour ago in her room.
She hung herself.
I'm sorry.
I don't want to keep watching people die.
I'm not sure you have much choice about that.
Maybe I do.
That's a lot of burden to carry, Scott.
I don't care.
No one else dies.
Everyone on that list.
Everyone on that Dead Pool.
It doesn't matter if they're wendigos, or werewolves, or whatever.
I'm gonna save everyone.
You counted it yet? No.
We should probably count it.
I suppose you're hiding down here because it'll cover your scent.
But I can smell a rat.
Even in a sewer.
It's getting worse, isn't it? The surges of anger.
The loss of control.
You know, I used to get angry.
As a kid, I would even break my own toys in little fits of rage.
And then I asked myself, "Why break your own toys when you can break someone else's?" Stop pitching and just tell me what you want.
Obviously, we're in a position of mutually assured destruction.
Oh, I'm not so sure the scales are that balanced.
Probably true.
But I know you want to get the family back together again.
The return of the Argents to their glorious power.
Am I right? But you know, you can't go back unless you can exhibit absolute and total control.
I can offer control.
I can teach you.
So, you're willing to teach me in order to get what you want.
Which is what? Obviously, I want my money back.
Mmm-mmm.
That's not it.
Maybe part of it.
But that's not all you want.
I need the money.
Yes.
But I'll admit, money only gets you so far.
What I want is what I've always wanted.
Power.
