Mama Argent would have made a kick-ass werewolf. I hope they bring her back as an avenging ghost or something.
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

I'm wondering if a knife to the heart would really be lethal to a werewolf. Didn't Peter and the Argents cut werewolves in half to ensure that they were dead?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Maybe if they kill her before her first full moon it's different? I'm assuming if anyone knows, it's her. But I was also assuming the corpse in the background was going to sit up, and figured that might have been one of the things that got cut off in my early ending. Because Tumblr is fucking screaming, and I can't work out why. I liked the episode, and the angst, and the vision, and poor Stiles and his guilt (I have no interest in Isaac finding his anchor, however--him and Erica make my eyes roll to infinity unless they're dirty threesome dancing with Jackson), but I don't get what was so freaky.
And they're also freaking out about the trailers for next week, which I haven't seen, so I'm falling behind there too. I hope this fandom doesn't get so excited I can't keep up and get overstimulated. I like the work product.

ita ! at what point did your episode cut off? Mine cut off early too, but there was definitely something to freak out about before it did, if you want me to tell you. I'm retaping it Saturday to see what else I may have missed.

I didn't see who came out of the floor, if that's it. I did catch the reveal that the stalkery kid was controlling the Kanima, but that was not a surprise by about halfway through.
eta: Aha! It's Peter. That makes sense, with the manipulation of Lydia. And that means Derek isn't Alpha anymore? Does Peter inherit the pack? Including Scott?

The last thing I saw before it cut out was Derek and Peter were tied together while Peter was slowly being restored and Derek was begging Lydia that she didn't know what she was doing. It cut out just at that point, so I didn't see if anything came after that or any previews.

In this mythology silver isn't deadly to werewolves; the legend got started because of the name (Argent) of the family that hunts and kills them professionally.
We've seen werewolves killed by fire, being cut in half, lethal clawing from another werewolf, and it's been implied that wolfsbane poisoning can do them in.

Maybe the Argents think that if you kill the person before they turn, it will take? But her eyes flashed just before she was stabbed, so maybe she's not dead for good. I hope she isn't.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Oh, that's excellent; that actually makes sense. It's like Cinderella's "glass" slipper.
