geebsTV commentary:
PLL- You got me, show. So Hanna tearfully confesses to Spencer how she murdered Charlotte. Only for her to tell Caleb, "See, she totally bought it!" Apparently Haleb are teaming up in order to fool whichever A wants them to reveal who the killer is into thinking Hanna is the one who did it. Which, to what end? To draw A out I guess? Too bad the Liars seem to be telling everyone and their mother all over the place (including over the phone) that its a trick. Have they learned nothing? They know there are eyes and ears everywhere? New A may already know its a trap now!
Teen Wolf- Well, that was neat and tidy. Lets start with Malia and her mom first. After a long drawn out fight, Corinne manages to get past Braeden and stab her daughter. Only, the problem with that is with the Desert Wolf being close enough to dig her claws into Malia, Malia is close enough to do the same thing (as apparently she has the real version of those power-stealing claws thanks to Stiles, which she puts on as she's run through, but more on that later). So she does, and I guess steals the rest of the Desert Wolf's remaining power for herself?
As for the Beast, this was a little confusing. So they figure out the way to get Mason back is to get Lydia to shout his name. Too bad the Beast attacks her at the police station and slashes her throat. She's hospitalized, but they inject her with cortisone to reduce swelling so she can still scream. We don't see any ill affects from that this ep, but I assume it will end up being a big deal later?
Meanwhile, that traitorous dog Theo kills Tracy to steal her power in the middle of her trying to screw him to make him feel better. What a dick! Anyways, he uses his new Kanima powers to paralyze Scott when he's trying to stop Lydia from falling into a pit in the underground tunnels. He can't have them killing the Beast before he takes its power.
With him thinking the gang is neutralized, he confronts the Beast, tries to steal its power, and nothing happens. Hilariously, the Beast doesn't even give Theo a second thought. Anyways, we knew the claws weren't going to work, but I thought it was because they wouldn't work with a chimera like Theo. But as mentioned earlier, he didn't have the real claws (Deucalion passed the real claws to Scott who had stiles deliver it to Malia), because apparently the stuff with Deucalion was one long con, as he and the Argents and the pack were working together this whole time.
Which, I call shenanigans. I don't think that actually makes sense if Deucalion was working with them from the very beginning (he isn't actually blind, he reveals he can see just fine, so him wanting to steal Scott's eyes was total bullshit). But whatever. Of course, since everyone's doublecrossing everyone, Gerard tries to backstab everyone, but Chris knew his dad was going to do that, so they draw on each other. Argent holds Gerard off so Scott can use the Surgeon's cane (Apparently, the Surgeon was really that Marcel dude from the flashbacks, and the cane is the remnant of the pike Marie Jeanne used to kill her brother centuries ago) to take out the beast.
Well, he doesn't really want to yet, because he thinks he can save Mason. So the wolves and Scott throw down with the Beast. The Beast whips their asses, but when the Beast stabs Scott, he sees Scott's memories of Allison. And since she's the spitting image of his sister, he hesitates. Which gives Lydia (who had been freed from the area she fell into by Kira) time to show back up and shout Mason's name. Waves of banshee screams envelope the Beast, and it turns all shadow, freeing Mason. Heh, Corey was apparently watching invisibly this whole time, like a weird creeper, and shows up to catch his boyfriend.
Meanwhile, the sort of incorporeal shadow version of the Beast tries to flee, but Parrish grabs it and holds it long enough for Scott to throw the cane at it. And thus the Beast is slain.
But Theo arrives, looking for revenge. Only Kira tells him that the Skinwalkers say his sister wants to speak with him. She stabs her sword into the ground, opening a hole which his sister pops out of, dragging him back down to the Earth.
So, all the good guys survive, and the Beast is beaten and everyone's happy. Only in the end we see something has gotten out of the tube in the Dread Doctor's place. A recap I read said its "The Nazi Werewolf", which, who the eff was that?! I guess looking it up, he's a nazi alpha werewolf that the Dread Doctors had imprisoned and were using to prolong their lives? I guess he'll prolly be an antagonist next season, being both an Alpha and a Nazi?
