- Surprise - we've grabbed the writer of this week's episode, Alyssa Clark!
- On an unrelated note, this episode may contain some bad language.
- Just kidding - it's totally related.
- Teen Wolf is about to start re-shoots, and Alyssa is working on some last-minute episodes. We're keeping her from actually making the show good... sorry guys.
- Alyssa doesn't have Twitter, but you can direct any compliments to us.
- You can direct any complains to co-writer Ian Stokes.
- Satomi and Derek are the stars of our quotes section.
- A Teen Wolf Christmas Episode? ...nah.
- Natalie absolutely hates quarantine, and Alyssa is stoked by her horror.
- "Everyone needs a little more fear in their life."
- The Chemist - we learn a few things about both the actor and the character's creation.
- The show keeps addressing all the issues and questions we raise - yay!
- The money issues are an incredibly important theme for the whole season - even down to the opening titles.
- If Scott and Stiles asked, would Derek give them the money? Well, he does have a lot of new Camaros to buy...
- Did anyone see void!Stiles doing all those murders? No?
- How did we like the re-introduction of Satomi?
- What are her pack dynamics like, and what kind of alpha is she?
- We get kinda technical about the PSATs.
- Coach has been sober for 15 years? Alyssa reminds us of some moments to look back on.
- Good adulting from Ms Martin this episode, and she has a great first name ;)
- Jeff and the writers didn't want the conflict of this show to be based in the parents being dumb and naive.
- Scott McCall continues his hero worship of cool moms.
- Alyssa makes everyone google smallpox. Mistake.
- Who shot Braeden? It was NOT the Chemist.
- There was some well-thought-out subtext regarding types of killers - it was the Chemist's undoing when he picked up a gun.
- Natalie goes crazy and thinks she dreamed a bit of the episode, but no, it's real.
- Satomi's pack is like a shelter for runaway wolf cubs - would it be a good fit for Derek? He could meditate.
- If Kate was Braeden's shooter... why was she with Satomi's poisoned pack? Alyssa ain't telling.
- Karen really appreciated Lydia's apology to Meredith.
- So.. that photo of Meredith was taken at the lake house. What a funny coincidence, right?
- "She's a long-distance runner." Alyssa likes discovering Lydia's powers with her, and she's very protective of the character.
- We liked the little situation with Kira and the needle, but not everyone at Teen Wolf HQ quite understood the issue.
- Alyssa doesn't mind getting needles done because she gets to eat little sandwiches after.
- Dr Wentz ain't got no time for McCall and Sheriff having emotions about their children. Hey, we have a Wentz on the podcast. What a funny coincidence, right?
- Admittedly, Scott and Stiles are not handling the whole Malia Hale thing very well.
- Would she really go to Peter? What about bear trap dad?
- Karen met bear trap dad at Comic-Con, by the way.
- "It's kinda like waking up and finding out that you’re a Kennedy."
- Stiles ain't shy about wanting that money.
- Bearer bonds are pretty rare - would this be a way to track down the Benefactor?
- Where is Derek's financial advisor?
- At the end of the day, it was Distemper vs Tea, and tea won.
- It's sappy, but we utterly loved the moment of normal Derek having non-traumatic memories.
- Still loving the basic biological dog enhancements.
- McCall shot that dude right in the head. Any consequences?
- God, the autopsy but was so gross as well, Jeff needs to stop watching Hannibal.
- Ink butts. You'll see.
- Get vaccinated, people!
- "There will always be more chances for brain matter."
- Alyssa has strong feelings on the Stiles/Malia dynamic - it's a relationship formed in the trenches.
- The assassins - even the Mute - are all definitely human. The Orphans were "the 21 Jump Street of assassins."
- A big shout-out to all the team who worked on this episode with Alyssa,
- Fandom's been talking trash about the absence of our boy Parrish - "Parrish is not a coward," Alyssa confirms.
- He was probably saving Liam from where he was stuck in a tree.
- Was this bottle episode a game changer in any way?
- Derek did get hit by that shooter - uhoh.
- Our non sequitur is actually about the creative process, but somehow comes back around, once again, to Tremors.
