Post by bunniefuu »

Scott: Previously on Teen Wolf...

Scott: We're looking for somebody named Stiles.

You went by that name in the Army, right?

Hayden: He's called a Ghost Rider. (Whipping)

They take people, and erase your memories. You're next.

Melissa: Someone is biting open heads. (Chomping)

Argent: The real question is, "Why?"

(Twigs snapping)

(Footsteps approaching)

(Sighs)

Argent: You might want to think twice before you sneak up on a man holding a loaded M-24.

Melissa: I wasn't sneaking up on you. I was catching up with you. (Panting)

Argent: I know. I heard you a mile back.

Melissa: (Breathing heavily) I found a low branch with my face.

How do you even see anything out here?

Argent: Practice.

Okay. What are you doing, Melissa?

Melissa: I thought maybe you could use some backup.

Which way?

You can leave me out here alone with a stun g*n and a box of Band-Aids, or we can just keep going. It's up to you.

(Electricity crackling)

You're probably wondering why I'm out here when I could be nestled at home reading a book. And that's because I'm sick of seeing people that I care about wheeled past the nurses' station on a gurney.

All of you are out here, risking your lives, and It's about time that I do something too.

Argent; In my experience, when tracking homicidal supernaturals, it's best to be quiet.

Okay?

Melissa: Yeah.

Oh!

What is it?

(Whispering) What is it?

Melissa: (Panting) He's dead.

Oh, no.

(Gasps)

It's okay. You're gonna be okay.

Argent; How long could she survive like that?

Melissa ; One, maybe two minutes.

(Sighs) Argent: It's still here.

Melissa: Exactly how much training have you had for a situation like this?

Argent: Remember the part about being quiet?

Melissa: Yeah.

It's a werewolf?

Argent: Werecoyote.

Melissa: Malia?

Argent: And she's coming right at us.

Melissa: Oh. You're not gonna sh**t her, are you?

Argent: No, I'm going to wing her.

(g*nsh*t)

(Malia growling and snarling)

(Screams)

(Music playing)

Corey: That's how he got in?

Liam: What is it?

Mason: It's a point of impact from a lightning strike.

Usually you'd find charred spots like that on the ground after a violent thunderstorm.

Scott: That's how the Ghost Rider got in. He rode lightning.

Liam: If they can use lightning to get past the mountain ash...

Scott: No place is safe.

Corey: What about the others? It's my fault they're marked.

Scott; We'll find a way to protect them.

All of them.

(Malia screams)

(Chris grunts)

Melissa: Keep her still.

(Breathing heavily) Malia: The morgue? I'm not dead yet.

Melissa; You're a werecoyote. It's private down here, and this is going to hurt.

Try not to roar. (Groans)

(Malia grunts)

Argent : You got anything for the pain?

Malia: No, I can take it.

Argent: It's for me.

What were you doing in the woods?

Malia: Running.

Melissa: At 2:00 a.m.?

(Grunts) Malia; Coyotes are nocturnal.

I heard screams. Like someone-being-m*rder*d type screams.

Argent: Did you see anything? Catch a scent?

Malia: (Grunts) Just blood. (Sighs)

(Sighs) And that's all I remember until someone sh*t me!

Melissa: You were about to tear us apart.

Argent: It's not her fault. When a coyote smells a fresh k*ll, its senses are overcome. The blood drives it crazy.

(Malia whimpers)

Melissa: Sorry.

It's pretty deep. I'm trying not to damage...

(Both yelling)

(Malia breathing heavily)

(Pained grunts)

Malia; Here's your b*llet back.

(Students chattering indistinctly)

(Breathing heavily)

(Thunder rumbling faintly)

Gwen: You don't have to follow me around everywhere.

Hayden: I'm just trying to keep you safe.

Gwen: What? You're gonna sit through all my classes?

And what about after school? What about all night?

Hayden: Wherever you go, I'll be there.

I'll just stay here.

(Music playing)

(Door closes)

"Liam: The K-index quantifies disturbances in the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field."

What's a "K-index?"

Mason; It's a scale that meteorologists use to measure thunderstorm activity.

So, a K-Index value less than 20 means no activity, and above 35 is severe.

Liam: Well, how bad's "severe?"

Mason: Well, your average storm has about 1,000 lightning strikes.

In the past three months, the average storm in Beacon Hills had 5,000.

Liam: And what's it reading now?

Mason: Uh, 14. We're clear.

Liam: Okay, so if a spike in the K-Index means more lightning, then we can tell if they're coming.

Mason: Yeah.

This is good.

Yeah.

(Monitor beeping)

Actually... This is really bad.

Lydia: It's a relic.

(Students chattering indistinctly)

Malia: What's a relic?

Lydia: An object with a fixed association to the past.

Jake's ID was left behind after he was taken.

And Gwen found her sister's bracelet on her bedroom floor.

Malia: How can someone be erased, and still leave something behind?

Lydia; A conservation of mass.

The total mass of any isolated system remains constant.

Scott: So, even the Ghost Riders have a weakness.

Malia: A relic would be proof that Stiles existed.

Scott: And maybe we can bring him back.

Mason: We need to hide them.

Liam: We need to fight them.

Mason: We need to hide them.

Scott; Who's "them?"

Liam: The Ghost Riders.

Mason: The kids at the party.

Scott: Got it.

Liam: We could get a lightning rod. Attract the Ghost Riders and catch them off guard.

Mason: But since everyone from the party is in danger, all we need to do is find a safe place to hide them until the storm passes.

Liam: The Ghost Riders ride the lightning. Nowhere is safe.

Mason; It is, if we're underground. The Earth can ground the lightning's electrical charge.

Everyone would be safe.

Scott: Okay...

Here's what we're gonna do.

We take everyone into the Argent Bunker. It's underground.

It's lined with mountain ash.

Liam: We stopped the Ghost Riders last night. We can do it again.

Scott; You didn't stop them. They just retreated. We don't know why.

(Exhales)

Liam: Okay. How do we get everyone inside the bunker?

Nathan: Is this a joke?

Liam: No. (Stammers)

And you got to take this seriously. Once we're all in the bunker, we'll be fine.

Nathan: I'm not gonna miss the first game of the year so that you can make captain.

Liam: They're a supernatural forces of nature coming to erase your soul.

Nathan: It was a man in a hat with a g*n.

Mason: And he's coming back to sh**t you in the head.

Stillinski: You want to search my house?

Lydia: People are leaving things behind. So if Stiles left anything...

Stillinski: Why, why would it be there?

Lydia: You can't just erase people. They leave things behind.

(Sighs)

I couldn't sleep last night. So, um, I got up, figured I'd do some paperwork.

The files were in the back of my car. So, I, I go to the garage, and some junk has fallen off a shelf and I, I stubbed my toe on an old baseball bat.

Without thinking I yelled a name...

Lydia: Stiles.

Jayden: Why are we underground?

Hayden; This is the way to the bunker.

Nathan: You guys have a bunker? Who are you people?

Liam: We're the people who know things about the things that most people don't know about.

Nathan: What?

Hayden: Just keep moving. (Sighs)

Liam... Where's Gwen?

Argent: I wouldn't touch that.

(Electricity buzzing)

Nathan: What's all this for?

Argent: Your protection.

(Grunting)

Liam: Hey, we're missing three, plus Gwen.

Scott: They're all lacrosse players.

Corey; They were at the party, so they know what's coming.

Argent: People see what they want to see. (Breathing heavily)

Mason: Guys, we're running out of time.

Liam: Scott, we have to get them.

Scott: I'll go. The rest of you stay here.

Liam: We couldn't fight off one Ghost Rider.

Who knows how many are gonna be there tonight? We're going with you.

Scott: You're marked.

Mason: So am I.

Corey: Yeah, me too, but at least I can see them coming.

(Sighs)

Scott: All right. But if you see them coming... Run.

Claudia: Is there anything I can do to help?

Lydia: No. But thank you, Mrs. Stilinski.

Claudia: Well, good luck. (Sighs) I'll leave you to it.

(Gasps)

(Echoing) Trent: You didn't see it, did you?

Lydia: See what?

Trent: It's right in front of your face.

(Gasps)

(Breathing heavily)

(Ripping)

(Gasps) Claudia:What are you doing?

Lydia: You're hurting me. (Gasps)

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that.

Claudia; I think that's something we can agree on.

(Puddle splashing)

(Sighs)

Argent: Thanks for coming.

Malia: You need my help?

Argent; I need a babysitter.

Malia; I'm not the babysitting type. Coyotes eat their young.

Argent; You could've k*lled me last night. Or worse, Melissa.

But I can help you.

Malia: Aren't you the one who sh*t me?

Argent: I come from a family of hunters.

It's our job to deal with situations that an ordinary person...

Malia: Job stress?

Argent: You know that bloodlust you felt? Oh, I've seen that look before.

When I was your age, I saw someone lose control and slaughter an innocent.

And I did nothing.

Malia: I’m not that werewolf.

Argent: No, it wasn't a werewolf.

It was a hunter. And she made excuses.

Made a very convincing case that lethal force was necessary.

But it wasn't. And if I had done something that night, then maybe my sister wouldn't be the monster that she is today.

Malia: Kate.

(Sighs) Argent; Animals lose control.

You're not just an animal, Malia. You're also a human.

You stay that way by getting involved.

(Device screeching)

Nathan; What are you doing here?

Argent: I asked her to come. And I asked you not to touch anything else.

Nathan: Look, how much longer do we have to be down here?

Argent; As long as it takes. (Cocking)

Malia: Okay, I'll stay. (Sighs)

You've sh*t enough people for one day.

Gwen; I'm not waiting in a bunker to get taken.

(Sighs) Hayden: You have no idea what you're up against.

Last night, it took all of us to stop one of them.

If you go out there, they'll take you too.

Gwen; They'll find me wherever I am. Just like Phoebe.

Hayden: I'm sorry we couldn't protect her.

But we can protect you.

Gwen: Don't worry. When it happens, you won't remember me.

Hayden: It doesn't have to happen.

You want them to take you.

Liam: What's the plan?

Scott: Convince Okafur, Steinbach, and Wallace that playing tonight is a bad idea.

You've read everything there is to know on the Ghost Riders.

Mason: Yeah.

Scott: And you're the only one of us who's figured anything out. Have you come across anything that could stop them?

Mason: Not yet. But I can try.

Scott: Do that.

(Breathing heavily) Mason: I can do this. I can do this.

(Inhales) I can do this.

(Exhales)

Coach; You're late, McCall! Why aren't you people dressed?

Get your asses moving. Everyone on the field! Hustle! Hustle! Hustle!

Liam: We'll never get them back into the bunker now.

Scott: Get dressed.

Liam: Because there's only one way to keep them safe.

Scott: Play the game.

Mrs. Martin: Were you tearing Claudia Stilinski's wallpaper off her wall?

(Door closes)

Lydia: No.

Maybe. Yes.

Natalie: She's worried about your mental health.

Lydia: I saw someone in the hallway. Someone Mrs. Stilinski didn't see.

Natalie: Well, if Claudia is not seeing ghosts, maybe it's because she's not a Banshee.

Lydia: I think he was trying to help me find something Stiles left behind. A relic.

Natalie: Did you?

Lydia: No.

Mrs. Stilinski asked me to leave before I could find anything.

(Chuckles) Natalie: Probably because you were tearing her wallpaper.

(Sighs) Oh, honey.

I've known Claudia since high school. I trust her.

(Sighs) Do you know what a confirmation bias is?

Lydia: The tendency to interpret information in a way that confirms an existing preconception.

Natalie; Yes. It's a biased perspective.

You're looking for proof to support what you already believe is true.

Because you want it to be true.

Lydia: Stiles is real. I know it.

(Sighs) Natalie: But do you believe there's a possibility he's not?

Okay. Tell me everything you know.

I'll be your unbiased perspective. (Sighs)

(Players clamoring)

(People cheering)

Scott: I'll take Steinbach and Wallace. You take Gwen. You're on Okafur.

Corey: What if I see Ghost Riders?

Liam: Yell.

Scott: Then get ready to fight.

(Whistle blowing)

(Players grunting)

(Music playing)

Find your own space.

(Audience booing)

(Buzzing)

(Both grunt)

Gwen: You wanna back off?

(Buzzing)

Woman: Go, Liam, go!

(All grunting)

Steinbach: Come on, man.

There's no ghosts out here, McCall.

(Buzzing)

Coach: What are you doing out there?

I'm gonna k*ll the three of you.

Lori: Do these guys ever practice?

Sydney: Not enough.

It's just first period.

Lori: They could still win.

Jayden: How do you know that they can't get in and sh**t all of us?

I'll never graduate.

I'll never do anything. This is it!

Malia: Give me the stun g*n.

Argent; Can you think of a better, less-seizure inducing way?

Jayden: Don't any of you get it? We are never leaving this place.

Malia: Jayden.

(Shuddering)

Malia: It's okay. Before they get in here, they got to go through us.

Jayden: What if that's not enough?

Malia: No one is getting through that door.

(Gasps) Nathan's missing.

(Players clamoring)

(Audience cheering)

(Thunder rumbling)

Parrish: On your knees.

(Audience cheering)

Mason: Yes. Yes. Yes.

(Cheering)

Yes!

(Audience groaning)

Both: Wrong team.

Mason; Sorry.

(Both grunting)

(Whistle blowing)

Coach: Yes, Dunbar! That's the kind of passion I want to see. Unleash hell!

Liam: What's gotten into everyone?

Scott: What if it's the Wild Hunt? What if it's affecting everyone?

(Thunder rumbling)

(Wind whooshing)

(Whistle blowing)

(Indistinct chatter)

Mason: It's Parrish. (Panting) He's the reason the Ghost Rider left the party.

Hayden: Parrish?

Mason: Call your sister.

Tell her we need to meet Parrish at the school right now.

Hayden: What about Gwen? What about the other players? We have to keep them safe.

Mason: Parrish could keep everyone safe. (Breathing heavily)

(Horse neighing)

(Lightning crackling)

Scott: They're here.

Liam!

Liam: I see 'em!

(Lightning crashing)

Malia: What happens if he gets out? (Breathing heavily)

Argent: He'll break the seal.

Malia: This way.

(Crackling)

(All clamoring)

(Whistle blowing)

(All booing)

Coach: Oh, come on, ref! This is barely a thunderstorm!

(Thunder crashing)

Scott: Okay. We've got all three, right?

Liam: Scott, there were four.

(Horse neighing)

(Screaming)

(Thunder rumbling)

(Hayden and Mason breathing heavily)

Parrish: Why did you call me?

Hayden; The Ghost Riders are afraid of you.

Parrish: What? How do you know?

Mason: You're the reason he left Gwen. You can stop them.

We need you.

The other you.

(Sighs)

Argent: You were good back there with Jayden.

Malia: Thanks. I still want to k*ll Nathan.

Argent: At this point, so do I. Which way?

Malia: This way.

Sydney: Are you okay?

(Horses neighing)

Okafur: Oh, my God! They're real!

We got to get out of here!

Liam; Stay together. We'll protect you.

Gwen: How?

(Neighing)

(Echoing) Scott: Run!

Liam: Stay close!

(g*nsh*t)

(g*nsh*t)

(Music playing)

(g*nsh*t)

Scott: I can still see them!

(Growling)

(Grunting)

(Horse neighing)

Scott: Liam!

(Grunting)

(Growling)

(g*nsh*t)

(Growling)

Liam: We can't stop 'em!

Scott: Protect Gwen! (Growling)

Melissa: You want what?

You want what?

Lydia: Claudia's medical records. Just for a minute. We know it's a lot to ask.

Melissa: It's up there. It's way up there.

Natalie; As the more recently enlightened of the two of us, just trust me.

There are lives at stake.

Melissa: Letting the two of you look at private medical records is completely and utterly against hospital regulations.

So, we better make this fast.

Chris: You lost it?

Malia: No. I don't know. Maybe. (Panting) It's like he was right here.

Argent: But no Nathan.

Malia: He's still here. I know it.

(Panting)

Malia: (Echoing) Nathan, I know you're there.

Nathan; How?

Chris: (Echoing) Stay put. We're coming to get you.

Nathan: No, you're not.

Malia: He's moving. You need to stop running.

You're gonna lead them right to us!

Nathan!

Malia: sh**t him.

Argent: Did you listen to my story?

Malia: Just clip him. You clipped me.

Argent: You healed. Come on. We're wasting time.

(Growling)

(Wind whoosing)

(Spurs clinking)

(Panting)

(g*nsh*t)

Parrish: Stay back.

(Growling)

(g*nsh*t)

(Groans)

(Gasps)

(Breathing heavily)

(Horse nickering)

(Growling)

Gwen: Come on!

Scott: No!

(g*nsh*t)

No!

(Breathing heavily)

Chris Argent : Nathan! Nathan!

Malia: We can keep you safe!

Nathan: Bull. I'm out of here. (Grunting)

(Clanking)

(Lightning crackling)

(g*nsh*t)

(Spurs ringing)

(Horses neighing)

(Roaring)

(Whip cracking)

(g*n f*ring)

Melissa: Sorry, guys. According to her medical records, Claudia never had children.

Lydia: Well, but she had...

Melissa: Frontotemporal dementia. There must be a mistake.

Natalie: How long ago? She seems fine now.

Melissa: Ten years? I'm surprised she's still alive, honestly. It's a miracle.

(Hayden panting)

Scott; Everyone from the bunker has been taken.

Mason: Everyone? How?

Liam: It doesn't matter how.

Scott: Malia is at the hospital. Argent's been hurt. My mom's with them.

Liam: Scott.

Tonight...

Scott: No. Hey, it's not your fault.

It's mine. We should have done both. Defend the bunker and use a lightning rod.

It would've given us a better chance.

Hayden: You okay?

Liam: No.

Coach; There he is. Look at that. The humility. The grace.

Sure, that wasn't lacrosse we played out there tonight.

That was la-crap!

But you...

You stayed on the field while the rest of these losers ran inside.

Liam: Coach, we lost. We lost everything.

Coach: Listen to the despair.

The rage simmering underneath it.

(Sighs)

See that, people? He still thinks he can win.

That's why next time he will win. Because he will find a way.

Now, show your new captain some love, you pukes!

(All clapping half-heartedly)

I said, "Show him some love!"

(Clapping)

All: (Chanting) Liam! Liam! Liam!

Scott: Is he okay?

(Sighs) Melissa: He has blunt force trauma to his temporal bone, three broken ribs, and multiple surface lacerations which seem to be from whip marks?

What he needs is a lot of rest.

Lydia: What happened?

Malia: The Ghost Riders took everyone. We barely slowed them down.

Scott: Tell us you found something.

Lydia: I found out Claudia never had children. So, Stiles can't be her son.

Malia: What about a relic?

There never was a Stiles, was there?

Scott: It doesn't even sound like a real name.

Lydia:We have to keep looking.

Check the school records again. Or call Scott's dad...

Malia: We're fighting the wrong battle.

Lydia:We're trying to bring Stiles back.

Malia: The Ghost Riders came back. We still have no way of stopping them.

And whatever they are, they're real. We can't keep chasing someone who isn't.

Scott: He didn't leave anything behind.

Lydia: Just us.

(Monitor beeping)

Hayden: Liam?

Mason: What are you still doin' here?

Hayden; Everyone's gone.

Corey: Literally. And we should go too.

Mason: Do you want a ride?

Liam: I want to catch one.

(Music playing)

Mason; What do you wanna catch one?

Hayden: One of the Ghost Riders?

Liam: Yeah. Go home.

Mason; We're not going.

Hayden: We're not leaving you.

Corey: Somebody just made team captain, right?

Liam: Yeah. Guess I did.

Mason: Then what do we do?

Liam: We catch a Ghost Rider.

(Music continues playing)
