The Divine Move 

Previously on Teen Wolf...

DEATON: You essentially openeda door in your minds.

(GROWLING)

NOSHIKO:He is nogitsune now.He is void.

DEATON: Scott is going to tryand guide him backfrom the depths ofown his subconscious

(GROWLING)

(CHOKING)

(MOANING)

MELISSA: How can there betwo of him?

NOSHIKO: There isn't. There's a demon wearing his face.

DarkStiles: There's been a change in ownership. Now they belong to me.

Scott; Allison.

(MAN ON POLICE RADIO)

CHRIS: (DISTORTED) Scott, look at me. Look at me. Scott, look at me. You have to remember. You called me first, okay?

Say it. You called me first.

(BREATHING HEAVILY) I...

Scott: I called you...

Argent: Not you.

Say Mr. Argent or her dad.

Scott: I called her dad first.

Argent: What else?

What happened?

Scott: There were two of them.

Argent:,Mmm-hmm.

(SCOTT PANTING)

Scott: They tried to steal our car.

(STUTTERING) They wore masks. One of them had a Kn*fe.

Argent: You think.

Don't get specific, Scott. You saw something sharp and metallic. You think it was a Kn*fe. What do you say next? If you get confused, what do you always repeat?

(PANTING)Scott:  It happened so fast.

Argent: That's right.

Say it again. Scott! Say it again.

Scott: How are you doing this?

Argent: It's what we do. It's what we do.

PARRISH: Can youremember anything else? Anything else? Isaac?

(WHISPERING) Isaac: I'm sorry. It just happened so fast.

(EXHALES)

Noshiko: Here, it'll calm you.

Stiles: What is it?

Noshiko: Tea.

Stiles: What? Like magic tea?

Noshiko: No, chamomile tea. Drink it.

Mr Yukimura; He's not safe here.

Noshiko: He's not safe anywhere.

Kira: But Allison k*lled one of them.

Doesn't that mean something? She k*lled an Oni.

Mr Yukimura: Is that even possible?

Kira: I'm not sure how.

 But she did it.

She k*lled one of them.

Stiles: Yeah, and then they k*lled her.

Allison's d*ad.

Now I guess the only good thing is it looks like I'm dying, too.

Noshiko: He made a powerful move by splitting the two of you.

Stiles: So what's our move?

Mr Yukimura: At this point, you need a divine move.

Stiles: What's that?

Noshiko: In the game of Go, it's what we call a truly inspired, or out-of-the-box move.

The Nogitsune has had sente, the advantage, until this point.

What you need is a divine move in order to turn the game around.

Stiles: Okay, so is anyone feeling divinely inspired?

Kira: Mom, you said you trapped it in a glass jar, right?

Noshiko: It wasn't the jar that trapped it.

It was where I buried it.

The Nemeton.

A place I don't know too much about.

Kira: Who does?

Stiles: Deaton.

Deaton does.

(ISAAC SOBBING)

Argent: I appreciate the concern, but you don't have to stay. I'll be all right. I've dealt with this before. I have a capacity and... An ability to

compartmentalize my emotions.

Isaac: I don't.

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

Stillinski: Hey.

We need to try and keep this quiet for as long as we can.

Once the press finds out about this, they're gonna be all over those kids.

Parish: You want a squad car outside your house?

(SIGHS) Stillinski: Yeah, might be a good idea tonight.

(RUSTLING)

(GRUNTING)

(PANTING)

Derek: Should be fine in a couple of hours.

Unless whoever sh*t you manages to find you again.

Aiden: Lydia's with Scott.

We need to go.

DEREK: Are you gonna try to convince her to go with you?

Aiden: I'm gonna try and convince her to run and hide.

Like any sane person would do.

Derek: And Danny?

Ethan: Allison's d*ad.

Stiles is dying.

What do you think?

Derek: I think Danny won't believe you.

And Lydia would never run and hide.

Ethan: Because of Stiles?

DEREK: Because of Scott. You've been trying to find a way into his pack. Trying to earn his trust, trying to fight for him.

You've had it wrong the whole time. You don't fight for a leader. You fight for a leader's cause.

Ethan: What cause?

DEREK: Scott's always been about one thing. Saving his friends. He will do anything and everything to save the people

he cares about. When there's no chance of winning, he keeps fighting. When all hope is lost, he finds another way. And when he's beaten down,

he stands up again. You want to earn a place in his pack? You want redemption? Find another way to stand and fight.

Scott: Stiles and Kira said it was the Nemeton that kept it trapped.

Deaton: The problem is this isn't even a person you're fighting.

It just looks like one.

It's a spirit that's taken the shape of a human.

Scott: The shape of my best friend.

LYDIA: Someone caught it once.

Someone can do it again, right?

Deaton: I don't know. This thing was trapped a long time ago, before the Nemeton was cut down.

It doesn't have the same power anymore.

Scott: Is there anything that does?

Deaton: Possibly.

When the tree was whole, its wood was sometimes used to contain powerful objects.

But those objects are very rare.

Lydia: Wait a second.

Powerful objects?

Like an Alpha's claws?

Deaton: Which Alpha?

Lydia: Talia Hale.

Peter had them in this wooden box with a triskele carved on the lid.

What if it was made from the Nemeton?

Deaton: It was.

Scott: How do you know?

DEATON: Because I made it.

DARKSTILES: Hi, there. Could you page Melissa McCall for me, please? Well, I guess I'll just find her myself.

(PHONE RINGING)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(EXHALES)

(SCREECHING)

Parish: Sheriff!

(g*n)

Agent McCall: I just think it would be better if it came from you.

Melissa: So I tell Scott that his dad went back to San Francisco, says he's sorry, but he didn't have time to say goodbye?

Agent McCall: Right. Then I'll send a follow-up email or something.

Melissa: You're an idiot.

Agent McCall: What's wrong with that?

Melissa: Seriously? Raf, you say that you want a relationship with your son. You can't just bail after one fight.

Agent McCall: He hates me.

Melissa: He doesn't hate you.

He just wants you to try harder.

Agent McCall: What's going on?

I don't know.

(ELEVATOR DOOR DINGS)

(SCREAMING)

Get back!

(SCREECHING)

(GRUNTING)

Argent: Careful.

That one takes some practice.

When Allison was learning, she had to bandage her fingers because they got so raw.

She wouldn't give up on it, though.

Isaac: She kept trying to say something.

Argent: What's that?

ISAAC: She was trying to say something to Scott. "You have to tell him," she said. (SNIFFLING) "You have to tell my father..."

She didn't get a chance to finish it, but I'm sure it was just that she loved you.

(SOFTLY) Argent: It's okay.

It's okay. She made a point of telling me earlier.

Isaac: Earlier?

Argent: There's a tradition we have.

Isaac: The silver b*llet.

Argent: She was making a silver arrowhead.

Isaac: Where is it?

The arrowhead?

Argent: Downstairs.

Isaac: I need to see it.

Argent: Why?

Because I have a feeling it isn't there.

(SCREAMING)

Melissa: Ow!

Agent McCall: What the hell is that?

Melissa: I think it's poisonous.

It hurts like hell.

Oh, be careful.

(SCREAMING)

MELISSA: Oh!

Agent McCall: I'm gonna get you out of here.

Melissa: Okay.

(g*n JAMMING)

Stillinski: You're gonna need a bigger g*n.

(SCREECHES)

Oh! Oh!

No!

Scott: Derek's got the triskele box.

He's gonna meet us.

(DISTANT WHISPERING)

Deaton: What's wrong?

LYDIA: Something's happening. I had this sudden rushing feeling, like we're running out of time.

STILES: Yeah. Yeah, I kind of got that feeling, too.

Argent: Why would she make four of these?

Isaac: She made five.

She made the first one, then she figured it out.

Allison: What am I missing?

Isaac: She used the first silver arrowhead to k*ll one of the Oni.

We saw her do it.

CHRIS: Oh.

Isaac: The same way that you almost did.

Do you remember when you told us about one of your first g*n deals, the Yakuza?

Argent: That meeting wasn't one of my first deals. It was my first deal.

ISAAC: The b*llet thatyou used to sh**t the Oni.

Was that a silver b*llet?

Argent: Yes.

But it didn't k*ll him.

It just broke his mask.

Probably went straight through.

Isaac: What if silver is like a poison to them?

What if it needs to stay in the body?

What if that's what she was trying to tell Scott?

What if that's what she was trying to tell you, that she'd figured it out?

Argent: These four would still've been setting when she went off to meet Scott.

Isaac: We could stop them.

Argent: No. We can k*ll them.

(EFFORT GRUNTS)

Stillinski: What the hell happened?

Parish: They left.

They just... They left.

(GROANING)

Why did they let us live?

Stillinski: I'm not so sure they did.

Stiles: Scott, hold on.

I know what you're all thinking.

If this works, it might k*ll me, too.

But even if it does, you have to go through with it.

Stick with the plan, okay?

Scott:,The plan is to save you.

That's the plan I'm going with.

(DOOR CREAKING)

Stiles: Oh, this is definitely not part of the plan.

Agent McCall: It's me again. I'm getting nothing from Dispatch.

No one's on the line.

Call me back, Stilinski.

Call me as soon as you get this.

(GROANING)

Melissa: Call Scott.

You need to call Scott.

Agent McCall: You're gonna be all right.

Melissa: That's not what I mean.

Agent McCall: Melissa, I need to get you out of here.

I'm gonna help you to your feet, okay?

Melissa: Raf, listen to me.

Agent McCall: You're gonna be fine.

Melissa: If something happens, you need to work it out with Scott.

Agent McCall: Melissa...

Melissa: You just need to try again.

Agent McCall: I tried to apologize.

Melissa: He's a teenage boy. He doesn't care about apologies. He wants you to do better. And he probably wants you to suffer a little.

Promise me you'll make it work.

Agent McCall: Okay.

Melissa: Okay.

DARKSTILES: Did you bring us a present?

DEREK: I brought two.

DARKSTILES: I've heard of an Alpha pack, Derek, but not a pack of former Alphas. It's a little sad, isn't it?

DEREK: I might not be an Alpha anymore, but I can still fight like one.

Nogitsune; Like I promised, Stiles. We're going to k*ll all of them. One by one.

Scott: What the hell is this?

Where are we?

Nogitsune: Between life and death.

Lydia: Bardo.

Nogitsune: But there are no peaceful deities here, Lydia.

You're dying, Stiles. And now everyone you care about is dying, too.

Stiles: What? What do you mean?

Nogitsune: I've captured almost all of the territories on the board, Stiles. The hospital. The sheriff's station. And now the animal clinic.

(GRUNTING)

Deaton: Ahh!

Nogitsune: Do you know the ritual of seppuku, Stiles?

Stiles: No, and I don't want to.

Nogitsune : When a samurai disembowels himself with his own sword to maintain his honor, but that's not the cut that kills him.

The k*lling stroke is made by his kaishakunin, who beheads the samurai with his own katana.

Scott... Scott is your kaishakunin.

I'm going to make your best friend k*ll you, Stiles. And you're going to let him. Because just like you, they're all going to die.

Everyone touched by an Oni's blade. Unless Scott kills you first.

Stiles: Why? Why are you doing this?

Nogitsune: To win the game.

(GROWLING)

Stillinski: Parrish, keep your eyes open.

Deputy!

Parish: What is this? Is this poison?

Stillinski: Whatever it is, ah, it's working fast.

(SIGHS)

Melissa: Don't leave him again. Promise me?

Agent McCall: You told me to leave.

Melissa: I told a drunk to get out of the house. I didn't tell his father to get out of his life. You came back to make it up to him, right?

Agent McCall: I came back to make it up to both of you.

Scott: How is this happening?

How are we in this place?

Kira: You're asking me? A month ago, I'd never even touched a sword.

Ethan: Where the hell are they?

Aiden: The jeep's here.

They have to be somewhere.

Derek: In the school!

(GRUNTING)

Lydia: This can't be real.

Stiles: Yeah, tell that to them.

(GROWLING)

Derek: You have to get on the box.

Someone get on the box!

Ethan: I hate ninjas.

(MELISSA GASPING)

Agent McCall: Hey.

Hey. Hey, there's blood at her lips. What does that mean? There's blood. What does it mean?

Scott: Stiles, no!

(GROWLING)

Stiles.

Stiles: What if it saves you?

What if it saves all of you?

Lydia: What if it's just another trick?

Nogitsune: No more tricks, Lydia.

 End it, Scott. Let your friend fall on his own sword. Do for him what he cannot do for himself. Do it, Scott.

Be his kaishakunin. Give up the game. You have no moves left.

STILES: I do. A divine move.

(SNARLING)

(GRUNTING)

Ethan: We can't do this, we can't b*at them.

Take the box. We'll hold them off!

Aiden: What was that?

Argent: Silver.

DEREK: Isaac, the box.

Get the triskele box to Scott!

STILES: Stop fighting them. It's an illusion. You have to stop fighting them. It looks real and it feels real, but Scott, you gotta trust me,

it's an illusion.

Scott: We're okay.

We're...

Dark Stiles: This was my game. You think you can b*at me at my game?

Argent: Get the arrow.

It's the last one.

(ARROW HITTING GROUND)

Aiden!

Dark stiles: Divine move.

Divine move. You think you have any moves at all?

You can k*ll the Oni. But me?

Me? I'm a thousand years old.

You can't k*ll me!

Lydia: But we can change you.

Dark stiles: What?

Stiles: You forgot about the scroll.

Lydia:,The Shugendo scroll.

Dark Stiles: Change the host.

Stiles: You can't be a fox and a wolf.

(SCREAMING)

(THUNDER CRACKLING)

(PANTING)

(CRACKING)

(GASPING)

(GROANING)

(EXHALES)

Stiles: Oh, God, I fainted, didn't I?

We're alive. We all alive?

Scott: Yeah. We're okay.

(SIGHS)

(DISTANT SNIFFLING)

Aiden: Does it hurt you as much as it hurts me?

Ethan: Yeah.

(WHIMPERING)

It's okay.

(CHUCKLES)

Aiden: Lydia never believed I was one of the good guys anyway.

(CHUCKLES)

Derek: She'll believe me.

(STRAINING) Shh.

Shh.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

KIRA: I wish I could saysomething to him.I wish I could say somethingto all of them.

But I don't how much space or how much time I'm supposed to give them. And I know I'm still just the new girl at school.

Coach: You ever run track? I mean, you have excellent muscle definition.

Malia: Not for long.

I sometimes ran from cougars trying to eat me.

Coach: I've had the same problem. So, listen, we're gonna start off slow.

You know, a few classes here and there.

Don't worry.

You'll learn fast.

Malia: I intend to.

Scott: It's okay. Don't think about it too much.

Just try to let it happen.

Ah, wow!

Malia: Oh, I am so sorry.

That's... Yeah!

(LAUGHING)

Ethan: I'm sorry.

I just don't think I can stay.

Danny: Actually, it's okay.

Ethan: You're breaking up with me?

(CHUCKLES) Danny: I... I like you.

A lot.

You're incredibly good-looking.

And smart and sweet.

And...

I...

I just don't think I can do it.

Ethan: Date me?

Danny: Date a werewolf.

Ethan: You knew?

Danny: Dude, it's Beacon Hills.

Stillinski: Hey.

What're you doing?

Stiles: Just, uh, clearing my head.

(SIGHS)

Deaton: Have you ever heard the term "regression to the mean"?

Scott: No.

Deaton: It's a bit of a technical way of saying things will always even out.

Scott: Like things will always get better?

Deaton: More like things can't always be bad.

Scott: So, no matter how bad things get...

DEATON: Or how good.

Scott: They always come back to the middle. 

Deaton: Regression to the mean.

Scott: I'm not so sure that applies to a town like this.

(CHUCKLES) Deaton: Yes.

You might be right.

DEREK: It was a dream. It was actually... It was more like a nightmare.

STILES: Okay. What happened?

DEREK: It started with these hunters that caught Peter and me after we left Cora. It was a family of them led by a guy named Severo.

They broke into my loft.

Severo: Now, my friend, you're gonna tell us about la loba.

Where is the she-wolf?

Derek: You should just go ahead and k*ll me.

'Cause you're never going to find Cora.

Severo: Cora? Who the hell is Cora?

MAN: Where are they?

(BEAST GROWLING)

Light them up!

(g*n f*ring)

(g*n COCKING)

(g*n)

STILES: Who was it?

Derek: There's a lot of myths about how people can be turned into a werewolf. Usually a bite. There's one about rain water.

Stiles: Drinking rain water out of the puddle of a werewolf's print.

Derek:  There's another one.

 Kate: Can you get turnedby a scratch?

Argent: If the claws go deep enough.

Maybe.

STILES: Derek, if this is all just a dream, why do you look so worried?

DEREK: Because I don't remember waking up. So tell me. How do you know? How do you know if you're still dreaming?

STILES: Your fingers, in dreams you have extra fingers.

Derek: It's real. You're real.

Kate: That's right, Derek.

And if seeing me is a surprise, watch this.
