STILINSKI HOUSE

[After practice, Stiles headed straight for his bedroom, where he began researching Werewolves on his computer. His online search starts with articles on Lycaon, said to be the first Werewolf, and moves on to articles about wolfsbane. Some time later, Stiles moves on to reading an old, battered book titled The History of Lycanthropy, before going back to the computer and searching online for articles about silver as a weakness of Werewolves. Finally, Stiles, looking concerned about what he's read so far, prints out an old sketch of a Hunter aiming a crossbow at a transformed Werewolf]

"You're like really smart" Chris says.

"No need to sound so surprised" Stiles mumbles.

[Suddenly, the sound of knocking at Stiles' door startles him so badly that he nearly falls out of his chair, revealing that the floor is covered in computer printouts from his research. Stiles thinks for a moment on what to do next, ultimately closing his MacBook and walking over to open his bedroom door. When he finds Scott in the doorway, he sighs in relief before allowing Scott entry]

STILES: Get in.

"Get in loser" Aurora and Lydia say at the same time.

[Scott walks into Stiles' bedroom just as Stiles closes the door]

STILES: You gotta see this thing. I've been up all night reading-- websites, books, all this information.

[Scott sets his backpack on the floor by Stiles' bed, his eyes widening when he sees all the paper covering the floor and desk]

SCOTT: How much Adderall have you had today?

STILES: A lot.

[Stiles shakes his head before changing the subject]

STILES: Doesn't matter, okay? Just listen.

[Scott takes a seat on Stiles' bed]

SCOTT: Oh, is this about the body? Did they find out who did it?

"Fucking Peter" Aurora mutters under her breath.

[Stiles is momentarily distracted by the point of summoning Scott to his house as he shares what he knows]

STILES: No, they're still questioning people. Even Derek Hale.

SCOTT: Oh, the guy in the woods that we saw the other day?

STILES: Yeah!

[Just then, Stiles remembers what he was trying to tell Scott]

STILES: Yes. But that's not it, okay?

[Scott frowns in confusion]

SCOTT: What, then?

STILES: Remember the joke from the other day?

[Stiles looks nervous about what he's going to say next, which only gets worse when Scott shakes his head, not knowing where Stiles is going with this]

STILES: Not a joke anymore. The wolf, the bite in the woods... I started doing all this reading.

[Stiles stands to his feet, already sidetracked from his original point]

STILES: Do you even know why a wolf howls?

SCOTT: Should I?

STILES: It's a signal, okay? When a wolf's alone, it howls to signal its location to the rest of the pack. So if you heard a wolf howling, that means others could have been nearby. Maybe even a whole pack of 'em.

SCOTT: A whole pack of wolves?

[Stiles finally gets to the point in his typically blunt fashion]

STILES: No-- Werewolves.

Remus shifted uncomfortably in his seat. 

"Where was Rory during this?" Derek asks, bringing Aurora closer to him. 

"Helping Lydia set up for the party and ignoring my calls"  Stiles glares at Aurora.

"I said I was sorry!"

[Scott, thinking this is just an elaborate joke on Stiles' part, starts to get irritated as he stands to his feet]

SCOTT: Are you seriously wasting my time with this? You know I'm picking up Allison in an hour.

[Scott picks up his backpack and gets ready to leave, but Stiles grabs him by the arm with one hand and presses his other against his chest so that he's forced to stay where he is while he tries to convince Scott that he's telling the truth]

STILES: I saw you on the field today, Scott, okay? What you did wasn't just amazing, all right? It was impossible. And Aura's been acting weird and jumpy all day too.

[Scott tries to shrug off Stiles' accusation and once again tries to leave]

SCOTT: Yeah, so I made a good shot.

[Stiles grabs Scott's backpack and tosses it onto his bed so dig around inside of it for something]

STILES: No, you made an incredible shot! I mean, the way you moved, your speed, your reflexes? Y'know, people can't just suddenly do that overnight. And there's the vision, and the senses, and don't even think I don't notice that you don't need your inhaler anymore.

SCOTT: Okay! Dude, I can't think about this now. We'll talk tomorrow.

[At the sound of this statement, Stiles becomes panicked, both for Scott's safety and that of people around him]

STILES: Tomorrow?! What? No! The full moon's tonight. Don't you get it?

[Scott gets so upset that he starts to stutter as he argues with Stiles]

SCOTT: What are you trying to do? I-I just made first line. I-I got a date with a girl who I can't believe wants to go out with me, and everything in my life is somehow perfect. Why are you trying to ruin it?

"He's just trying to help you"

STILES: [loudly] I'm trying to help!

[Stiles takes a deep breath before he continues in a softer tone of voice]

STILES: You're cursed, Scott. You know, and it's not just the moon will cause you to physically change. It also just so happens to be when your bloodlust will be at its peak.

SCOTT: Bloodlust?

STILES: Yeah, your urge to kill.

SCOTT: [irritably] I'm already starting to feel an urge to kill, Stiles.

[Stiles frantically grabs The History of Lycanthropy book off of his desk and starts reading aloud from it in an attempt to convince Scott that he is becoming a Werewolf]

STILES: You gotta hear this-- "The change can be caused by anger or anything that raises your pulse." All right? I haven't seen anyone raise your pulse like Allison does. You gotta cancel this date.

"You better have canceled that date" a student tells Scott who smiles guiltily.

[Stiles stands to his feet and starts digging through Scott's backpack again]

STILES: I'm gonna call her right now.

SCOTT: [yelps] What are you doing?

[Stiles grabs Scott's phone from his bag and starts to pull up Allison's number]

STILES: I'm canceling the date.

SCOTT: No, give it to me!

[Scott grabs the phone out of Stiles' hand, dropping it on the floor before shoving Stiles against the wall and raising his right fist, preparing to punch him in the face. However, after taking a deep breath, Scott lets go of Stiles and instead throws his desk chair across the room before coming back to himself. Stiles looks horrified, and Scott immediately begins to regret what he's just gone. He looks at the floor with a shameful expression before muttering to Stiles under his breath]

"I'm sorry" Scott says to which Stiles just waves him off.

Aurora glares at Scott for being so violent with her brother, even though she knows it's not really his fault.

SCOTT: I'm sorry. I-I gotta go get ready for that party.

[Scott picks up his phone and his backpack and heads for the door, giving Stiles one last apologetic look before he goes]

SCOTT: I'm sorry.

[Scott leaves, and Stiles lets out a long breath of relief. Still clearly upset, Stiles roughly picks up his desk chair and sets it to rights, freezing in horror when he sees that the leather cover on the chair has four long slits on the back that look like claw marks]

MCCALL HOUSE

[Scott has just finished taking a shower, and walks out of his bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. Once he enters his bedroom, he's startled to find his mother, Melissa McCall, standing outside the door waiting for him]

SCOTT: Mom!

[Melissa smiles at him]

MELISSA: Is this a party or a date?

[Scott smiles nervously]

SCOTT: Maybe both.

MELISSA: And her name is?

SCOTT: Allison.

MELISSA: Allison. Nice.

[Melissa holds out the keys to her car and hands then to Scott, who looks at her with gratitude]

SCOTT: Thank you.

[After a moment, Melissa narrows her eyes suspiciously]

MELISSA: We don't need to have a talk, do we?

[Scott groans and rolls his eyes]

SCOTT: Mom, I'm not having the safe sex talk with you.

[Melissa scoffs and makes a disgusted face]

MELISSA: Oh, my God. No! I meant about keeping the tank full. Give me those back!

SCOTT: [alarmed] Are you serious?

MELISSA: You bet your ass I am serious. I'm not gonna end up on some reality television show with a pregnant sixteen-year-old. Come on!

[Melissa holds out her hands to take the keys back]

ARGENT HOUSE

[Scott, who apparently talked his mother into still allowing him to use the car, pulls up in front of Allison's house. After a moment, Allison opens the door and walks outside. The two make eye contact with each other and smile as Allison walks toward the car]

MARTIN HOUSE

[Scott and Allison arrive at the party in the backyard. They walk through the house toward the back patio, where they find dozens of party attendees dancing and drinking around the swimming pool and the fire pits scattered across the yard. As they take the party in, Scott notices Derek Hale standing in the shadows behind a fire pit located by the gate to the yard. He and Scott stare at each other for a long moment as a nearby dog starts barking at Derek, who uses his animal instincts to quiet the dog with simply a look. Derek then resumes staring at Scott until Allison, noticing Scott's distraction, interrupts them]

"We need to work on your people skills" Aurora says to her boyfriend.

"My people skills are great" Derek says with a straight face.

"They really aren't Der" Aurora says and kisses his cheek which causes his lips to turn up a bit.

Stiles imitates throwing up which causes Aurora to smack the back of his head.

"Dad, she's hitting me!" Stiles exclaims.

"Good job sweetheart"

"Ha!"

ALLISON: You okay?

[Scott turns to look at Allison, breaking eye contact with Derek in the process]

SCOTT: What? Yeah, I'm fine.

[Scott looks back at where Derek was just standing, only to find that he has vanished. His gaze travels up to the roof, where he sees a shadowy figure leaping across the top of the Martin House under the full moon overhead, causing him to frown in concern. When he returns to looking at Allison, he notices that she's holding out her left hand and waiting for Scott to take it, which he finally does with a smile]

[The scene cuts to Scott and Allison dancing by the pool. Allison puts her right arm around his neck, and the two get closer and closer to each other. Allison runs her fingers through the back of Scott's hair with a smile before burrowing her face his neck. This gives Scott the chance to keep looking around the yard. His gaze eventually falls onto Lydia and Jackson, who are making out against one of the support columns in front of the house; when Jackson starts kissing Lydia's neck, she catches Scott staring at her and stares at him back with an expression that indicates that she is interested in Scott. He moves his gaze to Aurora who is laughing while she talks to Danny. The both of them make eye contact and Aurora sends him a smile. ]

[Allison and Scott are nose-to-nose now, and just when it looks like they're about to kiss, Scott's fingers tighten around the back of Allison's jacket as the full moon finally starts to take effect in his body. He's suddenly stricken with a terrible headache caused by all of his senses being heightened all at once, and he groans as he clutches his temples with both hands. Allison stops dancing and looks at him with concern]

ALLISON: Are you okay?

[Scott continues to groan until the ache subsides slightly, opening his eyes just enough to see where he's going as he turns to go somewhere private and ride the sickness out]

SCOTT: I'll be right back.

"That must have been so confusing"

[Aurora seems to start to lose focus while talking to Danny. She feels her head start to throb like crazy so she excuses herself and goes to sit in her car where she takes a few deep breaths. She looks in the mirror to see that her eyes are glowing purple which causes her to start freaking out]

"Your eyes are so gorgeous" Ginny tells her to which she smiles back.

"They are the most unique thing I've ever seen" Derek says and kisses her temple. And it was true, one of Derek's favorite parts about Aurora were when her eyes glowed, they wouldn't turn yellow, they would turn purple.

[Aurora is freaking out even more when she sees she has somehow grown fangs as well. Her breathing starts getting heavy and she get out of the jeep and runs away]

[Scott heads inside the house, leaving Allison alone in the backyard. As Scott walks through the dining room, his vision starts to get shaky and blurry. He passes Stiles, who is wearing a lavender dress shirt and tie and is in the middle of a conversation with another male student when he sees Scott and looks at him with a worried expression]

STILES: Yo, Scott, you good?

[Scott is too overwhelmed to respond to Stiles' question and instead continues making his way through the house, passing Harley in the living room, who also seems concerned by Scott's obvious pain]

HARLEY: Are you okay?

[Scott pushes on through the foyer and out the front door, where he stumbles down the stone staircase to where he parked Melissa's car. Allison, looking both confused and hurt, follows Scott until she sees him get into the car and drive off without another word. Just then, she hears her name being called out]

DEREK: Allison.

[Allison turns around to see Derek standing behind her with a charming smile]

DEREK: I'm a friend of Scott's.

"Liar!" Stiles and Scott yell at Derek who seems unbothered by them.

[Allison looks back at the road that Scott took to get home before turning back toward Derek, who takes another step toward her]

DEREK: My name's Derek.

MCCALL HOUSE

[Scott has just rushed upstairs to his bedroom, where he locks the door before sliding down it into a crouching position. Directly in front of him is his open bedroom window, which gives him a perfect look at the full moon in the sky. Groaning in pain, he stumbles into the attached bathroom and strips out of his jacket and tshirt before climbing into the bathtub and turning on the shower so that hot water pours over him. This seems to give him some momentary relief until he suddenly grits his teeth in pain and anxiously rubs his right hand over his face to try to distract himself from it. Suddenly, his fingers start to ache, and when he looks down at the palms of his water-swollen hands, he is horrified to see his fingernails growing into long, sharp claws]

[Frantically getting out of the shower, Scott looks in the mirror over the medicine cabinet and is even more overwhelmed to find his canine teeth growing into fangs and his irises glowing a bright gold color. Just then, a loud pounding knock is heard on his bedroom door. The scene cuts to Scott's bedroom, where Scott is pressing his forehead and torso against the inside of the door]

"Wait why did his glow yellow and yours glowed purple?" Harry asks, wanting to know more about his older sister.

"Because I'm part witch" Aurora simple responds to Harry.

"Or an abomination" Lily mumbles under hear breath, and fortunately no one hears her.

SCOTT: Go away.

[Another knock is heard on the door before the visitor identifies himself]

STILES: Scott, it's me.

[Scott, realizing that it is his best friend and not his mother, unlocks his door but only allows Stiles to open it a few inches so that Stiles can hear him but not see him. Scott continues to lean his forehead against the door as he struggles to control his breathing]

STILES: Let me in, Scott. I can help. Look, I have no clue where Aura is and I'm sure she's scared out of her mind. So will you please let me help you so that we can both go and help her.

"Pfft I'm never scared" Aurora says to which everyone just gives her a 'really?' look.

[The thought of Stiles getting closer to him causes him to panic, as he's afraid of what will happen. Instead, Scott, lisping slightly due to his fangs, begs Stiles to leave instead]

SCOTT: No! Listen, you gotta find Allison.

STILES: She's fine, all right? I saw her get a ride from the party. She's-she's totally fine, all right?

[Scott, frustrated, continues his argument]

SCOTT: No, I think I know who it is--

[Stiles is too overwhelmed by concern regarding Scott's current situation to pay attention to his protests and instead cuts him off with an exasperated tone of voice]

STILES: Dude, just let me in! We can try--

[Scott, in an effort to get Stiles to understand what he's trying to say, interrupts him as well]

SCOTT: --It's Derek. Derek Hale is the Werewolf! He's the one that bit me. He's the one that killed the girl in the woods.

"Yes because I would kill my own sister" Derek rolls his eyes.

"We apologized!" Scott says.

"No you didn't" "No we didn't" Derek and Stiles say at the same time.

[Stiles' eyes widen in horror when he realizes the implications of this revelation]

STILES: Scott... Derek's the one who drove Allison from the party...

[Scott processes this for a short moment before he quickly shuts the door and locks it again. Out in the hallway, Stiles rattles the doorknob, and when he can't open the door, he starts to pound on it with his fist in an attempt to be let back in]

STILES: Scott!

[The scene cuts to outside the house, where Scott has just opened the window to his second-floor bedroom and jumped out. He lands on his feet on the ground below in a three-point stance, splashing in the rain puddle left from the previous night. Scott then completes his transformation into his Werewolf form, complete with a ridged brow, pointed ears, mutton chops, gold glowing eyes, claws, and fangs. Saliva drips from the tips of his elongated canine teeth as he looks up at the full moon and roars]

BEACON HILLS PRESERVE / ARGENT HOUSE

[In the BEACON HILLS PRESERVE, Scott jumps on top of Derek's car, which is parked just out front of the entrance sign. He looks inside to see that neither Allison nor Derek are there before he heads into the woods]

[Meanwhile, at the ARGENT HOUSE, Stiles has just arrived and immediately rushes out of the Jeep toward the front door, where he frantically rings the doorbell as he mutters under his breath]

STILES: Come on... Come on... Come on...

[In the BEACON HILLS PRESERVE, Scott, fully transformed, is running through the woods, using his new superhuman sense of smell to track Allison's scent in order to locate her and Derek]

[At the ARGENT HOUSE, Allison's mother, Victoria Argent, has just opened the front door to find an overwhelmed Stiles on the doorstep. Stiles wastes no time trying to figure out what is going on with Allison]

STILES: Hi, Mrs. Argent. Um - You have no idea who I am. I'm a friend of your daughter's. Uhhh, look, this is gonna sound kind of crazy, um... Really crazy, actually. You know what? Crazy doesn't even describe--

"This is why people don't like you" Aurora says.

"A lot of people like me! Scott tell her" Stiles says and looks over at Scott who looks in the other direction, pretending not to hear anything.

[Victoria looks at Stiles as though he's stupid before turning and shouting up the staircase]

VICTORIA: Allison! It's for you.

[Alison walks onto the balcony at the top of the staircase, looking perfectly fine, though she is no longer wearing her black blazer. Stiles looks flabbergasted by the sight of her, and Allison looks confused as to why he looks so panicked]

[In the BEACON HILLS PRESERVE, Scott continues to run though the woods, following her scent until he reaches a clearing, where he finds Allison's jacket hanging on a branch and realizes that it was the scent he was following, and not the scent of Allison herself. When Derek steps out of the shadows, Scott glares at him and growls in warning]

SCOTT: Where is she?

DEREK: She's safe... from you.

[Derek tackles Scott, leading to the two of them to continue to roll down a slight hill. Once they reach the bottom, Derek pulls Scott to his feet and pins him against a tree]

SCOTT: What did you do with her?

[Out of nowhere, Aurora comes to the pair and body slams into Derek]

Derek: Hey, you need to calm- 

[Derek is caught off guard by the fact that Aurora's eyes are glowing purple. Aurora growls at Derek and is ready to strike but he covers her mouth and holds her still]

DEREK: Shh, quiet. Too late. They're already here. Run.

[Derek runs away, while holding Aurora who thrashes around in his arms, but Scott, not understanding what is going on, takes a beat to catch on. This distraction ends up working against him when a flash-bang arrow flies past him, blinding him momentarily. As he recovers, another arrow is shot at him, which goes through his left forearm and pins him to the tree. Suddenly, a group of three middle-aged male Hunters step out of the shadows, with the leader, Argent, holding a crossbow aimed right at Scott while Derek watches from a distance]

ARGENT: Take him.

[Before the Hunters can move, Derek knocks out the two closest to him, leaving Chris outnumbered. Taking advantage of the distraction, Derek pulls the arrow out of Scott's arm, causing him to roar in pain]

SCOTT: AHHHH!

[The two quickly run away, and when Chris finishes checking on his men, he looks back at the tree to find that Scott is gone]

[Once Derek, Aurora, and Scott have run far enough away from the Hunters to feel that the coast is clear, Scott, now in his human form, falls to his knees. Aurora is back at her human form again, and she sits down on the ground, breathing heavily. Scott looks at Derek with an expression of anger, hurt, and betrayal]

SCOTT: Who were they?

DEREK: Hunters. The kind that have been hunting us for centuries.

[Scott glares furiously at Derek]

SCOTT: Us? You mean you! You did this to us!

DEREK: Is it really so bad, Scott? That you can see better? Hear more clearly? Move faster than any human could ever hope? You've been given something that most people would kill for. The Bite is a gift.

[Scott, frustrated and exhausted, continues to glare at Derek]

SCOTT: I don't want it.

DEREK: You will. And you're gonna need me if you want to learn how to control it.

[Derek places his hand on Scott's shoulder]

DEREK: So you and me, Scott? We're brothers now.

[Scott furiously walks away and Derek turns his attention to Aurora]

Derek: Are you gonna be ok to walk?

Stiles nods in thanks to Derek for not just leaving his sister there.

[Aurora nods and goes to stand but she loses her balance and is about to fall but Derek catches her]

"You guys are so adorable!"

Derek: let me take you home

Aurora: No offense but you look like a kidnapper.

People laugh at that while Derek just rolls his eyes.

Derek: Look, first full moons are tough for everyone. So why don't I just drive you home

Aurora: Fine, but if I go missing, just remember my dad is the sherrif.

[Derek rolls his eyes and wraps his jacket around Aurora and leads her to his car]

"He gave her his jacket!" Lavender squels while Lily just rolls her eyes.

Meanwhile, James is starting to get to terms with the fact that his duaghter is a werewolf and that those people are gonna be in her life no matter what. So he decides he might as well stop fighting it like Lily seems to be doing, and to accept that his daughter has another family.

BACK ROADS

[Scott is walking along the side of the road, still wearing only his jeans from the night before and cradling his now-healed left forearm with his right arm, when Stiles' Jeep pulls up next to him to pick him up. Scott gets into the passenger seat before putting on Stiles' jacket]

SCOTT: You know what actually worries me the most?

STILES: If you say "Allison," I'm gonna punch you in the head.

SCOTT: She probably hates me now.

STILES: Ugh. I doubt that. But you might want to come up with a pretty amazing apology. Or, you know, you could just tell her the truth and revel in the awesomeness of the fact that you're a frickin' Werewolf.

[Stiles looks over at Scott, who has just shot him a look, and begins to backpedal from that statement]

Scott: Where's Aura?

"Nice to know someone cares"

Stiles: She just got home, and you'll never believe who gave her a ride. Derek freaking Hale. But, hey, we'll get through this. Come on, if I have to, I'll chain you up myself on full moon nights and feed you live mice.

[Scott gives him another look, only this time, it's more confused than annoyed]

STILES: I had a boa once. I could do it.

BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL

[After school, Scott is waiting outside the front entrance to the school for Allison so that he can apologize to her. When he finally sees her leave the school and head toward the parking lot, he approaches her]

ALLISON: So what happened? You left me stranded at the party.

SCOTT: Yeah, I-I know, I know. I'm really sorry, I am. But you're gonna have to trust that I had a really good reason.

ALLISON: Did you get sick?

[Scott sighs at the reminder of what happened on Friday]

SCOTT: ...I definitely had an attack of something.

ALLISON: Am I gonna get an explanation?

[Scott puts on his best innocent smile]

SCOTT: Can you just find it in your heart to trust me on this one?

ALLISON: Am I gonna regret this?

[Scott, still smiling, shrugs sheepishly]

SCOTT: Probably. So is that a "yes" on a second chance?

ALLISON: Definitely yes.

[They smile at each other for a moment until they're interrupted by a car horn beeping near them. When Allison looks up to find the source of the noise, she sees a familiar burgundy SUV and prepares to leave]

ALLISON: That's my dad. I better go.

[Scott is about to turn back toward the school to go to lacrosse practice when he suddenly catches a scent that he recognizes and turns back around. When he looks toward the SUV, he sees that Allison's father is Chris Argent, the leader of the trio of Hunters who shot him several nights earlier. Argent catches Scott staring at them, and Scott, stunned into speechlessness, waves at them awkwardly before watching them pull away to head home, horrified at the realization that the girl he wants to date is the daughter of a Werewolf Hunter]

"Holy shit!"

"Talk about plot twists"
