‘Teen Wolf’ Recap: Are You Afraid Of The Dark?

This episode of Teen Wolf opened up like your worst nightmare. This random guy, who came to be known as Patrick, dragged a body bag through a freezer. Suddenly, the body bag started to move! Patrick was so excited about his newest victim, but Deaton saved the day!

Deaton and Patrick fought it out with meat hooks. Now that’s something you don’t see everyday. Deaton told Patrick he was taking him back to Eichen House. When Patrick asked if Deaton was a cop, Deaton said, “Veterinarian.” (LOL.)

After returning Patrick to Eichen House, Deaton went to a floor of the asylum that we’d never seen before. Deaton wanted to talk to Dr. Valack, although the other doctor strongly advised against it. 

Deaton visited Dr. Valack anyway, and wanted to know about Kate Argent. More specifically, what she did to Derek. Dr. Valack became the Hannibal Lector of Teen Wolf and it was so creepy. 

He wanted Deaton to come closer so he could see what he knew.

There was a huge hole in the middle of head just like Cyclops. Don’t look, Deaton!

He looked. (No!)

Inside that disgusting hole in Dr. Valack’s head was ANOTHER EYE. (Brb, having nightmares forever.)

Over in normal territory, Scott was still hesitating to give the cash back to Derek. He wanted to keep it to help out his mom. So adorable!

Meanwhile, Liam and Mason had the ultimate bro time playing video games. Sadly, Mason had to go study and the look on Liam’s face was sheer devastation. Liam looked legitimately worried, even Mason asked if was OK.

As it turns out, little Liam was afraid of the dark and the Berserkers. After dark, things just got completely crazy. Derek and Braeden were woken up by a screaming Lydia at the door.

We all know what that means.

In the most adorable news you’ll hear all day, Stiles snores. Malia tried to wake him so she could study, but nothing was stirring Stiles. However, went she started a full-on makeout sesh, Stiles was happy to oblige.

Scott returned the money to Derek, but was surprised to learn it wasn’t his. It was Peter’s. Derek had spent his money on the whole building!

Like the doctor had previously warned, Deaton didn’t leave Eichen House after his meeting with Dr. Valack. Even though Deaton is in some dream state that looked straight out of a Indiana Jones movie, he was comatose in Eichen House.

Liam still couldn’t shake that terrifying Berserker. His fear got particularly dangerous while he was weightlifting before the big lacrosse game. Liam pushed himself so hard that the weight got caught on his chest! Like always, Scott was there to save him. “If you don’t want to be with us, that’s OK,” Scott told Liam. (My heart is melting.)

Meanwhile, Papa Argent showed up to Kate and Peter’s lair with his guns blazing. Peter and a Berserker also joined Papa Argent. Uh oh.

‘Teen Wolf’ Recap: What Is So Special About Scott McCall?

The Stilinski’s are no longer in debt. Hooray! After Stiles and Lydia nearly lost their lives at Eichen House, the asylum decided to forgive their debts.

Although Sheriff Stilinski was having a good day, Papa Argent was not. Peter impaled Argent at the water treatment plant. He promised Kate he wouldn’t kill Argent, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t hurt him.

In less dire news, Scott and Kira finally had their first real date at Derek’s loft! They had planned to watch a movie, but Scott forgot the TV. So instead, they just started making out.

IT WAS HOT.

Their sexy rendezvous was unfortunately cut short by Kate and her Berserker. The Berserker started tossing Scott around like a rag doll, but Scott wasn’t going to give up that easily. He valiantly fought Kate. Kira got a hold of some chains, so she was good for a hot minute, but the Berserker proved too strong.

After Kate started to get the better of Scott, she finally got the chance to tell him what she really thought of him.

The Argent family had been around for over 400 years, until Scott came along.

“In less than a year, this family has been disseminated by a teenage boy,” Kate spat. “What in the hell is so special about Scott McCall?”

Everything.

“You want me. Take me. Just me,” Scott pleaded.

Kate didn’t take the deal.

‘Teen Wolf’ Recap: Pep Talks & Bromances

Naturally, Scott and Kira didn’t show up to school, and Coach was freaking out. Why? It was game time!

However, Stiles had been practicing for the big game, or so he said. Poor Stiles got pummeled on the field. Where in the world was Scott McCall?!

After halftime, Stiles left the game to call Scott, leaving Liam all by his lonesome. Liam took over and almost scored, but no such luck. Once again, Liam started to see a Berserker on the field, but Brett shook him out of his nightmare. Apparently, Liam’s fear was very potent.

Later, Brett revealed why he helped Liam. It was all because of Scott. He wanted Liam to know how lucky he was to have Scott in his life. So sweet.

“Then why isn’t he here?” Liam said. (Help. My heart.)

Parrish managed to find Argent, who revealed that Kate and Peter were going after Scott. Argent wanted Parrish to warn them, but Parrish wasn’t leaving. He was going to do whatever it took to save Argent. Parrish gave Argent an outstanding pep talk to help him gather the strength to live. He brought up Allison and that did the trick.

Parrish and Argent are my new favorite bromance.

‘Teen Wolf’ Recap: Kingdom of Skulls

Peter showed up to the game, much to Malia’s dismay. He brought up Malia’s mom — the Desert Wolf. If Malia wanted to find her, she was going to have to do something for him first. It was a pretty simple task.

Kill Kate Argent.

The doctors at Eichen House were thinking about moving Deaton, but Lydia had other plans. She wanted to talk to Deaton.

Kira finally woke up surrounded by skeletons. Where is she and why is she locked up?!

Stiles, Derek, Stilinski and Braeden all discovered that Scott and Kira were legit missing. Lydia revealed that they are in Mexico. Road trip!

In Mexico, Kate had Scott tied up and had major changes planned. “You are about to become something unrecognizable to your friends,” Kate seethed. “They won’t know what they are fighting.”

Kate placed the Berserker mask on his face. Gulp.
