- DEREK: Previously on - Teen Wolf...
- Say you're sorry - for leaving me to burn.
- If you can hear me, - I need you to
give me a sign.
Malia.
- LYDIA: My grandmother - found Meredith.
- (WHISPERING) - She was controlling me.
He wasn't on my list.
He was a bad person.
(SNARLING)
(GROWLING)
- Get up, Lori. - Come on. Run!
Run! (SCREAMS)
Go!
(GRUNTING)
(YELLING)
Wait, wait!
Lori, stop!
- Brett... - Brett, what's happening?
Close your eyes.
Run!
(MUSIC PLAYING)
(PANTING)
Kira found Brett.
- They're fine but - we've got to go.
More assassins?
Maybe a lot more.
- Different than the ones who - just tried to set us on fire?
I think so, yeah.
- How about I - take you home?
I'm not like you.
Not yet.
- I don't mean - I'm not strong
- or I'm never gonna learn - how to be in control.
I mean everything else.
You and your
friends try to
protect everyone.
- Have you been doing - this the whole time?
- I mean, how are you - all still alive?
Not all of us are.
- Let me at least - take you home.
(SIGHS)
- STILES: I'm completely - and totally fine.
Uh-uh-uh.
- You completely - and totally
have a concussion, Stiles.
Lie back down.
The doctor said
you're not leaving
without a CT scan.
- We still haven't paid - for the last one.
Oh, no, no, no.
- Meredith is - at the station.
- Your dad said it - could take some time
- but he will - get her to talk.
- Even if I let you go, - what would you do?
Okay, fine.
- Can you do me one - little favor?
Anything.
Can you get me
a tape player?
Like cassettes?
Yes. Tapes.
- Yeah, I'll see - what I can do.
- Okay, tapes, - though, please.
Cassettes.
(DOOR CLOSES)
- What did she say? - Hard to tell.
There were words.
- I'm not sure there - were actual sentences.
Nothing.
- I think we need - a psychologist...
Or a medium.
- Is she even competent enough - to be charged with something?
- If Meredith is - The Benefactor,
- then that means she - was competent enough
- to trick Kate into - opening the Hale Vault,
- competent enough to blackmail - Brunski into helping her,
- and competent enough - to create a hit list
- and pay out money - for its completion.
- This girl's practically - a criminal mastermind.
- (SOFTLY) - There's gotta be a reason
why she would do this.
- I'm only interested in - the "why," if it tells
me the "how."
You mean how to stop it.
- After what happened - to Scott tonight,
this thing's still going.
- The payments - could be automatic.
- And as long as - the killers are
getting paid,
and paid very well,
- that list is gonna - keep getting smaller.
- We don't just need to - stop the dead pool.
We need to stop the money.
Is your mom...
She's okay. Healing.
- What about you? - Me?
Are you okay?
Right now? Very.
- Did you find him? - Did you find Brett?
- Actually, I think - I found all of them.
- Satomi, this is who I was - telling you about.
- I know who - Scott McCall is.
Are we safe here?
We're gonna need help.
A lot of help.
(GRUNTS)
(THUD)
- I thought I told you - to go home.
- I thought I told you - I wasn't going anywhere.
- Did they get - anything out of her?
- Should have gone - with the medium.
- We went through everything - in Brunski's office,
and so far
everything amounts
to pretty much nothing.
Did you not go home yet?
Not until Meredith
starts talking.
- Lydia, - I promise she'll talk,
- and when she does, - I'll let you know.
- Trust me on this. - Everybody talks eventually.
Then let me try.
- No, we've already - discussed this.
- I've gotten through - to her before.
Just let me try.
- You find a tape player? - No.
- But I found someone - looking for you.
Hey.
- I heard you - almost got killed.
You okay?
- Brunski punched me - in the face.
- Turns out he was - a serial killer.
- Makes sense. - Yeah.
What about you?
We almost got
set on fire.
- Everyone okay? - Basically.
You okay?
I'm fine.
I'm gonna go.
You don't have to.
- I should go. - Okay.
It's locked.
- Why would - she lock the door?
Uh... Hey, Melissa?
(RATTLING)
Melissa.
- I could break it. - How about you not?
- I already owe this - hospital enough money.
- Why would she - lock the door?
Maybe she didn't mean to.
- You don't just - accidentally lock a door.
Okay, well, maybe,
she wasn't thinking,
exactly.
- Or wasn't - thinking it through.
- You know, - people sometimes
do things
- without thinking - them through.
Then she's stupid.
No, even smart people
can do stupid things.
- You know, 'cause they think - that it's the right thing.
- And I don't think we should - hold it against her,
- you know, - for the rest of her life!
Especially because
she's tried apologizing
- hundreds of times through - texts and voicemails.
- Is she gonna - keep begging?
She might.
I don't have much
practice in things
like forgiveness.
- Some things I'm - picking up fast.
But other things are like...
Like math?
I hate math.
You hate me?
I like you, Stiles.
I like you a lot.
I can work with that.
(GRUNTS)
(GROWLING)
Wait! Wait!
- Brett! This is - his place. It's his.
CHRIS: Scott...
- If you bring in guests, - you could have called.
- SCOTT: I didn't have - anywhere else to take them.
I know this man.
- He may not remember, - but we've met before.
SCOTT: You can trust him.
I trust him.
- How do we know he's - not like the others?
What others?
- Last night, there was - a whole team after them.
And they used crossbows.
- They're hunters, - aren't they?
- Not if they're - killing for profit.
Not anymore.
Can they find us?
- They might already - know you're here.
- Maybe they're - waiting for dark.
So we're not safe here?
We're not safe anywhere.
- We've been trying - to get out for days.
Everywhere we turn,
we find someone new
trying to kill us.
If they're coming, Scott,
- they're coming - for you too.
- You're still number one - on the dead pool.
I know.
- I know Lydia can get - the answer from Meredith.
She just needs more time.
Then that's what she'll get.
- BRUNSKI: (ON TAPE) - Let's go, Lorraine.
LORRAINE:
Listen to me.
Please listen.
There's something
I have to do,
something I have to stop.
- BRUNSKI: I have to take you - back to Eichen, Lorraine.
(INCREASES VOLUME)
LORRAINE: No. No.
- I don't think you're - gonna be taking me anywhere.
- I can hear the recorder - in your pocket.
It's on now, isn't it?
You're making a tape.
Just like you
taped the others.
- This didn't happen - at Eichen House.
- But then where - did she go?
- That's what we - need to find out.
I think I'm getting
an idea of how
all this happened.
You used Brunski, right?
- You knew he'd - killed people,
- and that he - would do it again.
- He used my grandmother's - code for the dead pool.
He put it online.
- He took the money - from the Hale Vault,
- then turned the bearer - bonds into cash.
He made the payments.
- Was it Brunski's idea - to fake your death?
- Did he get nervous - because you helped us
- with one of - the cipher keys?
I wanted to help.
- All you ever - wanted to do was help.
Is that why you're here?
- I know you wouldn't - want to be here if
you didn't want to talk.
I do.
But only to one person.
Who?
Peter.
Peter Hale.
(TAPE REWINDING)
- BRUNSKI: - ...back to Eichen, Lorraine.
LORRAINE: No. No.
- I don't think you're - gonna be taking me anywhere.
- That's it. - That's where it is.
- Play it again - and turn it up.
(TAPE REWINDING)
- BRUNSKI: - ...Eichen, Lorraine.
No. No.
- I don't think you're - gonna be taking me anywhere.
- I can hear the recorder - in your pocket.
It's on now, isn't it?
You're making a tape.
- Just like you taped - the others.
(NEEDLE SCRATCHING FAINTLY)
It's the record player.
- (TURNS TAPE OFF) - What record player?
- The one in the lake house, - in the study.
- So she escaped - from Eichen House
- to go back to listen - to a record player?
- Well, she was - like Lydia, right?
She was a Banshee?
Yeah, but only once.
- She predicted - Maddy's death
- and then just spent - decades trying to
predict something else.
Maybe she finally did.
And what if this time,
- it wasn't just one death, - it was a lot of deaths?
Like the dead pool.
What if all those years ago,
Lorraine predicted it?
- And she knew there was - something in the study
that could stop it?
- Then we're going to - the lake house.
(BEEPING)
(LOADING GUN)
They'll be okay.
- They've got claws and fangs. - But they're not fighters.
That's why I called you.
Well, try to remember
- I don't have - claws and fangs
anymore either.
That's why he called me.
- Am I the only one - still hoping this is
all just a false alarm?
I mean, it's possible
- we could wait here - all night and nothing happens.
Right?
- Scott, you heard anything - from Stiles or Lydia yet?
- Lydia's still - talking to Meredith.
- Stiles and Malia are - headed to the lake house.
They're trying to stop it.
- What if there is - no stopping it?
- What if it doesn't end - until we're all dead?
Then let's send a message.
Let's make something
perfectly clear to anyone
with a copy of that list.
- It doesn't matter - if they're professional
assassins,
- hunters, or an amateur - who just picked up a gun.
- Anyone who thinks they can - hunt and kill us for money,
- is gonna be put - on another list.
Our list.
- They get to be a name - on our dead pool.
Her?
- That's the girl - that stole my money?
That girl is a Banshee.
- They're more dangerous - than you think.
- Oh, I think that girl's - pilot light went out
a long time ago.
Sheriff, not to question
- the unquestionably - sterling reputation
of your department,
but are you absolutely sure
you got the one?
- How about you - just go in there
and see what
she has to say?
Okay... Meredith,
where's my money?
- Or more correctly, - what's left of it.
Let her go.
Why did you do that?
They're all gone.
LYDIA: Oh, my God.
They have met before.
MEREDITH: The burns.
They're all gone.
I remember meeting you,
- but you weren't - a Buddhist back then.
- And you weren't - protecting werewolves.
You were hunting them.
- Three things cannot - long be hidden...
The sun.
The moon.
The truth.
- What exactly - does that mean?
- The truth cannot - stay hidden.
- I know what - the saying means.
- What does it mean - for you?
The truth for me
is that we,
my kind,
are violent creatures,
- who eventually - will not be
able to control
their violent impulses.
- The mantra helps us - subdue our nature.
- But you're still - violent creatures.
Aren't we all?
(ALARM BEEPING)
They're coming.
- PETER: Meredith, - you put everyone,
- including my nephew - and my daughter
on a death list.
- Don't you think - you owe us
- the slightest - explanation of why?
- You said it had - to be kept secret.
I said?
I said that to you?
You said it.
Meredith.
- Allow me to remind you - yet again,
we have never met...
- Ever. - What is he doing?
You don't remember?
No. But maybe you do.
No, don't!
(SCREAMS)
Get back!
(GRUNTING)
Don't! Don't touch them.
- If you break the bond - you could kill them.
Both of them.
- What are we - supposed to do?
I, uh...
I don't know.
- What the hell - is he doing to her?
(INHALES DEEPLY)
(INAUDIBLE)
- DR. VANDENBERG: Patient - has been non-responsive
for several weeks.
No sign of physical trauma,
no response
to external stimuli.
- Our feeling is the damage - is primarily psychological.
(MURMURING INDISTINCTLY)
- STILINSKI: (LOW) - Do you hear that?
She's saying something.
Can you understand that?
I can.
I can hear perfectly.
(CONTINUES MURMURING)
She was in the hospital.
The same hospital.
Same as who?
Peter.
- Here we have a rather - extraordinary case.
Near fatal burn victim.
The interesting part
is that typically in
a situation like this,
- the coma is - induced medically
- as the pain can often - be too much for
the patient to bear.
- We're not sure how Mr. Hale - became comatose, however.
His survival is honestly
a mystery we're still
trying to solve.
Moving on.
(MEREDITH CONTINUES MURMURING)
- LYDIA: It was - right after the fire.
Meredith could hear him.
Hear what?
Everything.
She was hearing every
thought in his head,
- like they'd somehow - found the same wavelength.
- And now everything - going through his mind
was also going
right into hers.
STILINSKI: For how long?
- LYDIA: Weeks. - Maybe even months.
- It was almost like - he was standing
right over her bed
talking about the fire.
About getting revenge.
(DISTORTED SPEECH)
I predicted this.
I told...
- I told Talia this - was going to happen.
- Something like this - was going to happen.
- I said that they were - gonna come for us.
- The Argents. - They're gonna come for us.
- They are gonna - burn us to the ground.
- They're gonna burn us - to the ground.
Did she listen?
Of course not.
Did anyone listen?
They listened to her.
- Yes! Say that everything - was going to be fine.
- That we were all - perfectly safe.
(WHISPERS) Perfectly safe.
- But she made us weak! - She made us weak.
- And what happens - to the weakest in the herd?
- They get picked off - by the predators!
- We used to be - the apex predators.
- Until Talia - turned us into sheep.
But I'll start over.
Like a vengeful God,
- I will raze this earth - to the ground!
I will take out
all of them!
Not just the wolves,
but the Wendigos,
- the banshees, - every shape shifter.
I will obliterate
the weak
and I will remake
the supernatural
of Beacon Hills
in my image.
- I won't have to do - any of it myself.
Because I'll hire people.
- Assassins. - Professional killers.
People like The Mute.
The Chemist. Even...
Someone like the Desert Wolf.
- I'll use the money - in the Vault.
The bearer bonds.
- I'll use every penny - if I have to.
- I'll start with - the professionals,
and then maybe
I'll disseminate
the list further.
No. No.
Not a list.
A dead pool.
- Eventually everybody - will want a chance.
- Anyone can become - a killer for the right price
- because when it - comes down to it,
everyone can be
corrupted by money!
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
- It was your idea - and you don't even remember.
(NEEDLE SCRATCHING FAINTLY)
(SIGHS)
What are we doing?
This room wasn't
even made for us.
- No, we need someone - like Lydia or Meredith,
- and we're just - sitting here
- listening to a stupid - record player
- play a record that - doesn't play anything.
Come on.
- There's plenty of other - things we can be totally
useless doing.
(DOOR OPENING)
(FAINT WHIRRING)
Stiles.
Yes?
I can still hear it.
But it's not on.
Then it's something else.
Something spinning.
Uh...
What is this?
The dead pool.
(GUNS FIRING)
(GRUNTS)
(ROARING)
(SNARLS)
How many are there?
Too many!
Are you kidding me?
Hands where I can see them.
- How the hell was I supposed - to remember any of that?
She got it from you.
(BREATHING SHAKILY)
I was out of my mind.
- Do you know what it's - like for one of us
to be in a coma?
Paralyzed but cognizant?
You try not going crazy.
She was listening to you.
PETER: She was listening
- to the ranting - and raving of a lunatic.
- A former lunatic. - I'm much healthier now.
- I had nothing - to do with this.
- If she was following - your lead on this,
- then how do we know - there isn't more?
Stealing my own money?
Really?
- STILINSKI: You were - going to use it anyway.
Stop.
- Stop it. - This is what she wants.
It's why she's here.
Look around, Sheriff.
- There's three people - in here right now.
- Three people still - on the dead pool.
Me, Parrish...
And Meredith.
- But not him. - PETER: Lydia's right.
- We don't want to - kill each other.
- The only person - I'm pointing a gun
at is you.
- Then you better make it - a perfect shot, Sheriff,
- because I don't - go down easy.
I'm willing to bet
- that a bullet - between the eyes
doesn't heal real fast...
- Not even for your kind. - LYDIA: Stop.
Please, stop.
- PETER: This department's - getting more corrupted
by the second.
- What are you going - to charge me with, Sheriff?
- How are you going to - explain this to a judge?
Telepathic girl
overhears thoughts
of comatose werewolf
- and decides to enact - his plans for retribution?
Hmm. (CLICKS TONGUE)
- They're gonna be pointing - a gun at your head
- and asking you - to go quietly.
- Let him go. - You have to let him go.
- I'd take the word - of a Banshee, Sheriff.
- I leave. - No triggers pulled.
No blood shed.
That's twice, Peter.
- There's not gonna - be a third.
No.
It's not finished.
No, it's not finished!
No! It's not done.
It's not finished!
No. Hey!
- You can't just - smash it to pieces.
Okay?
- If this thing's being used - to disseminate the list,
- then it's probably gonna - keep going until
everyone's dead.
MALIA: Then what do we do?
It needs some
kind of prompt
- or command - or something, right?
No, no, no.
What about a key?
(GUNS FIRING)
- Get the others back. - Tell them to hide.
Kira! Kira!
You see it?
- There's got to be a way - to turn it off, right?
I don't know.
- I don't know anything about - computers from the 1970s.
Neither do we.
Okay, where's the monitor?
Lydia, there is no monitor.
There are buttons, knobs,
spindles, no monitor.
- Wait, turn the phone back. - Point it at the carpet.
The what?
- The floor! - Just show me the floor.
Where's the stain?
- There should be red - blotches, a wine stain.
There's nothing.
That doesn't make sense.
- I gave the $500 I was - supposed to use to
hire cleaners to Brunski.
- Lydia, what the hell does wine - have to do with anything?
- Red wine doesn't - just disappear.
Unless it wasn't wine.
What? What do you mean?
- The ashes weren't ashes. - The study isn't a study.
- The record player - isn't a record player.
- So... So maybe - the wine wasn't wine.
- Stiles, you have - to find the wine.
- Find the bottle. - There could be
something about it.
- What kind? - What's it called?
It's a 1982
Cotes du Rhone.
- (RATTLING) - I think there's
something inside.
- Do you have, like, - a wine opener or...
(GUNS FIRING)
(EXPLOSION)
Brett?
Brett, where are you?
(ROARING)
(GROWLING)
(CELL PHONES BUZZING)
(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)
Is it over?
Really over?
Are you okay?
- I guess you are, - aren't you?
(SIGHS)
- For someone who'd put - their own name on a hit list.
I had to.
Why?
Because I heard you.
I heard you scream
in the tunnels
at Oak Creek.
Allison!
- That's why I knew - it was the right time...
To start over.
(INHALES SHARPLY)
But with Peter?
He's the alpha.
- He's always - been the alpha.
He'll make it right.
It never was with us.
Too many people
died because of us.
We're the monsters.
Even banshees.
Even me.
I don't believe that.
Not all monsters
do monstrous things.
Like who?
Like Scott.
Like you.
(WHISPERS) Oh, God.
What have I done?
- You look nervous. - I'm not nervous.
I'm rattled.
I don't like being rattled.
KATE: But it's over.
The dead pool's done.
- And if you need - to be reminded,
- everything else - is going exactly your way.
Not exactly my way.
- Maybe every little - piece in your game
- didn't move - just as predicted,
- but they still moved - perfectly into place.
(WATER DRIPPING)
- You wanna bail - on the plan.
Of course not.
Not when I'm this close.
- Not when I'm this close - to killing Scott McCall.
