Scott and Stiles work to save Stilinski, while Theo finds himself a Hellhound

Welcome back,Teen Wolffans.

I have good and bad news.

The good news is that Scott is officially on the mend and beginning to rebuild his pack!

The bad news is, well, pretty much everything else.

The Dread Doctors are still around, we could be witnessing the end of Beacon Hills, etc.

But more than that, Lydia has a hole in her head …and they show it A LOT.

So I hope youre ready (and not eating)!

Lets do this…

We start with Lydia hole-in-head and all whos hanging with Dr. Valack at Eichen House.

But the only answer we get is that Theo let his sister die because he needed her heart.

One heart transplant later and Theo would become a genetic chimera.

We simply dont know who or what that is yet.

(What do you want to bet is rhymes withThe Feast?)

And if youre having trouble remembering where everyone else left off last season, dont worry.

Elsewhere, Parrish is enjoying a McSteamy-approved shower.

But when Lydia shows up, he knows something off.

Apparently Parrish still hasnt caught on yet, so Lydia spells it out for him: Someones dying.

But heres the thing: Everyones a little busy wondering how Parrish busted out of jail.

Also, things are cray.

As Clark puts it, Parrish, no ones available.

Do you have any idea whats going on?

With that, Parrish heads to the Nemeton on his own.

Its there that he finds a catatonic Lydia and takes her to Scott.

The last thing Lydia did was use her nails to carve a badge into a rock.

Not surprisingly, hes taken a turn for the worse.

And with poor Stiles on the edge of a breakdown, seeing Scott sends him over the edge.

Stiles slams his one-time best friend to the ground demanding to know where Scotts been.

After all, Scott was the one who trusted Theo.

But Scott only brings more bad news: Stilinski isnt the only one whos hurt.

Just like that, Stiles is at Lydias side.

An emotional mother, she blames Lydias friends for whats happened to her.

Then Lydia finally speaks, saying, I told you to stay in the car.

(Is this a callback to Lydia seeing her grandmother at Eichen?

What does it mean?)

Did we know this?

Guys, Im so confused.

Can we teach her?

Because thatd be useful.)

It seems he simply wanted Stilinski to serve as a distraction so as to leave Scott alone with Liam.

And by warning Stiles, its evident that Theo didnt want Stilinski to die.

Translation: Its time to have a little chat with Theo.

NEXT: Did someone say they were looking for a Hellhound?

What Theo does believe is that things are only going to get worse from here.

In other words, Theo didnt know about it, which means he wasnt Stilinskis attacker.

Stiles immediately hops in the car someone save Roscoe already!

to find out who attacked his father, but Scott wont let him go alone.

For the first time, these two are forced to face their failed friendship.

You believed him, Stiles says about Theo.

You trusted him, too, Scott replies.

Thankfully, Stiles is willing to put his father first this time around and work with Scott.

Because, as Scott says, theyve survived a lot.

They can survive the Dread Doctors and chimeras, too.

(Lets just hope they can survive with their friendship intact.)

Now, theyre off to find a missing teenager.

As Mason puts it, The last few hours havent been your best.

So theres one missing teenager found.

But theres still one missing: Noah Patrick.

Scott calls Malia to help with tracking, despite Stiles not wanting her to come along.

As Malia says, We kind of broke up, I guess.

Yeah, we kind of broke up, too.

The good news is that she does find him.

But the bad news is that the Dread Doctors arent far behind.

Noah briefly knocks Stiles out, just long enough for us to see more of his childhood memory.

You still got me, Stilinski tells his son.

Seeing the bones coming out of Noahs hands, Stiles calls Melissa.

Melissa then tells a very frustrated Dr. Geyer, they need to open Stilinski back up.

Theres a piece of bone inside him, which means hes being poisoned by blood marrow.

You still got me.

As for Scott and Malia, theyre left to face the Dread Doctors…but theyre not alone.

Scott might be weak right now again, thanks a lot, Liam but hes not an idiot.

He knows when to call for back-up, and he knows when that back-up should be ARGENT!!!

Yep, hes back!

(And is it just me, or did he share a look with Melissa?)

Its a shame, because apparently he was part berserker, which is why Hayden whos part jaguar!

was able to track him.

But with him gone, all Hayden and Theo find is a symbol of an alpha and his pack.

And this time, its Scotts!

This is where we check back in with Lydia at Eichen.

She explains that Scotts symbol was a promise to reunite his pack.

Except…they arent looking for Lydia.

Theyre looking for a Hellhound.

Heres to hoping one of Theos chimeras knows how to handle fire.

(Or not.)

Altogether, I have to say: I really enjoyed this premiere.

It feels like everything they set up last season is continuing to build to something epic.

Now if I never have to see that hole in Lydias head again, Ill be happy.
