== Synopsis ==
In Beacon Hills, a teenage boy barricades himself inside his room as he hears the screams of his family. Suddenly, an ax busts through the wall and scrapes the boy’s foot. Outside his room, a mouthless man in a black trench coat continues to bust down the wall. The boy wraps his hand in a towel and breaks through the window. The man retrieves his ax and heads to the basement, where multiple dead bodies are strung up. 
Elsewhere, high atop a mesa in the desert, Stiles and Lydia arrive at a Mexican village, walking cautiously through the town, while Lydia says that this is their worst plan ever and fears that someone will get hurt. They approach a doorway and hold a large card with a stylized skull and are allowed to enter. Walking down a very dark hall, they again discuss the foolishness of their plan and press through two very large doors, arriving in a dance club. Sitting at the bar, they are given two shots, on the house, but Lydia says that they're not there to drink and drops a brass bullet in the glass. They are taken to the office of old werewolf hunter, Araya, who is using a curved blade as a seam ripper. They negotiate with her, believing her to hold information on Derek’s disappearance and place a case full of $50,000 on the table. Araya's guards cock their weapons and Araya states they weren't smart to come alone, but Stiles replies "What makes you think we came alone?" In the club, Malia Tate is dancing with her eyes glowing blue, Isaac Lahey is leaning against the wall quietly, with his eyes glowing yellow, and Allison sitting at the bar, as she pulls a ring dagger out of her sleeve. Araya is insulted that they brought a wolf into her home, and Stiles says that they didn't just bring a werewolf, they brought an Alpha, and it cuts to the dark corner of the club, as Scott lifts his head to reveal his glowing red eyes. Sensing something is wrong, Isaac joins Malia on the dance floor and they take out a couple of armed hunters. In Araya's office, Lydia tells her to take the deal, but while being keen to take the warning of a banshee, Araya disagrees. The guards prepare to shoot them, but Malia, transformed, jumps through the window and takes one of them down, while Isaac, transformed, jumps through the other window and takes down two other guards. A hunter flies through the door into the office, and Scott and Allison walk in. Araya warns Scott, saying that a new Alpha should be more careful when dealing with a hunter of 40 years, and pulls out a few smoke bombs, which extract wolfs bane gas, causing the werewolves to fall to the ground weakened, and a hunter knocks Allison out cold with the butt of a shot gun. 
At the Beacon Hills Hospital, Melissa tends to the boy, who tells her that his family was murdered. Sheriff Stilinski heads to the boy’s house, but their bodies appear healed. 
Scott wakes up strapped to a chair, along with Lydia, with Allison held at gunpoint by the hunters. Araya explains that they’re looking for a certain she-wolf and threaten to kill Scott by having Allison turn an electrical dial that will shock Scott if he answers incorrectly, and if she doesn’t, another hunter will turn the dial on Lydia. Araya repeatedly asks Scott if there is anyone he knows could’ve been turned without him knowing, but Scott only turns up blank. Allison hesitates to turn the dial, but to save Lydia, Scott tells her to. Meanwhile, Isaac, Malia, and Stiles are trapped in a rundown bathroom, trying to take down a steel door, but it seems unbreakable. Stiles then notices the air ducts. Araya has Allison turn up the dial even further, close enough to kill Scott. Suddenly Scott appears surprised, and Araya realizes he remembers something, but refuses to tell them. Araya prepares to kill him, but Isaac and Malia drop in and free their friends, and escape from Araya. 
Driving back in Stiles’ jeep, Scott recaps the time Kate Argent asked Chris if a person can be turned by the scratch of a werewolf, in which he replies if they go deep enough. Scott tells them that he believes Kate is still alive, but Allison says that they saw her die at the hands of Peter, when he ripped her throat out. Suddenly, Braiden appears in front of the Jeep and has the teenagers follow her to an abandoned church. Scott and Braiden head outside, while the others stay. Malia sees something and goes to find. Stiles tries to stop her, but she ignores him and has Isaac and Allison follow her. Malia jumps out of the shadows, with her leg cut deep. Inside, Scott and Braiden see that the church is unstable, and are attacked by two big creatures, and run. Scott stops and turns around, and gives out a large roar, scaring the creatures and shaking the entire building. They arrive at a stone wall and bust it down, shocked at what they see. Outside, the others see Scott and Braiden carrying someone. Malia asks if that’s Derek, but Stiles replies that it’s sort of Derek. When he lifts his head, it shows the face of a teenage Derek.
