My mind is full of riddles after... RIDDLED!!!!!!
Soooo... This week's shiz storm started off with a sleepwalking Stiles calling Scott in the dead of the night. Stiles calls saying he is in a basement with his foot caught in a trap. It is the coldest night of the year (20 degrees... REALLY TEEN WOLF!!!!?!?!??) and Stiles thinks there is someone with him. Scott screams and shouts (and let's it all out) to wake up Isaac so they can go searching. They head to Stiles' house at the same time as Lydia and Aiden, who had been in the school working on art/sexy things when Lydia heard voices. They meet in Stiles' room where they discover Stiles' own art project; taking all his red yarn, tying it to a pair of scissors, and stabbing them into his bed. Baffled, Scott and Isaac head to the police station to tell Sheriff Stilinski what has happened while Lydia and Aiden stay behind. The police find Stiles' car at the hospital and after sniffing around Scott concludes (with the help of Derek) that Stiles was in fact there and stressed out, but left. Back at the house, Lydia discovers that she can hear voices when she plucks the strings, which leads her to believe that Stiles is in the basement of the mental hospital that Barrow was committed. They all rush there but find nothing (although the viewers see what the gang missed; the symbol for "self" scratched into the wall). Agent McCall uses his big boy brain and figures out that Stiles is still sleeping and just THINKS he's in a basement, when in reality he is in the coyote cave (what happen to that story line?). They save the poor screaming Stiles and send him straight to the hospital.
The whole time Stiles was in a cave, he truly believed he was in a basement with a bandaged man with creepy , steel teeth. The man is (I believe) the Nogitsune inside Stiles' mind. The Nogitsune is sneaking around, speaking in Japanese and riddles, and referring to a "we". He say, "We are trying to save you. We're trying to save your life." Who is this "we"? The Nogitsune draws a "self" symbol on the wall which disappears in a dramatic fashion, but before it does we get this image. IT TOTALLY LOOKS LIKE A FACE!!!!!!!!!!
As I said, the Nogitsune is asking Stiles riddles that Stiles answers very quickly but one trips him up... "Everyone has it, but no one can lose it." Mama and Agent McCall save Stiles before he has the chance to answer.
Meanwhile, Allison is missing all the fun because her phone is off even though she never turned it off. Upon turning it on she discovers tons of messages from a blocked number. The messages are in Japanese and after having Kira's dad translate them, they discover it is a recording of a man reading instructions to prisoners arriving at a fake Japanese holding camp in WWII (???????????).
At school the next day Lydia is hypersensitive to loud noises, especially those of Stiles getting an MRI. She can't escape these bangs and clangs and leaves school so she can SCREEEEAAMMMSS!!!!!
We also have Derek getting some quality bonding time with Kira after he abducts her at school and takes her to the power substation. She tells him all she knows about foxfire, which isn't much to be honest. Derek believes that Barrow used the foxfire created by Kira to jump start the Nogitsune inside Stiles (?????????).
That same day at the hospital Stiles is having tests done to see if he has the form of dementia that his mother died from. He most likely does, in which that case Scott will bite him up. During the MRI Stiles gets taken back into the Nogitsune Dream World (this should be a thing) where the Nogitsune says he is going to "kill all of them".... yayyyy death. Stiles figures out the answer to the riddle, "Everyone has it, but no on can lose it." The anwer is "your shadow". Upon discovering this, Stiles turns around only to see that the Nogitsune has taken off his bandages and now has Stiles' face. The Nogitsune takes over Stiles' body and causes all the power to shut off so he can escape and have a conversation with Kira's mom (KIRA'S MOM!!!!!!). She tells Dark Stiles that she's going to take him down with the help of the Oni and Kira. Dark Stiles replies by attempting to kill Kira, from what it looks like. I'm just so happy Kira's mom is a mythical creature!!!!
The only other note worthy thing in the episode was the relationship between Scott and Derek. They were working together, or as Derek put it, "sharing a few trade secrets". Derek also told Scott that he took Cora back to South America (Scotland) and talked to his mother. I'm sure there was more to their conversation, but Derek said that when he talked with his mom she told him that the Hales hadn't just lived in Beacon Hills, they had protected it. It was a nice moment :)
Have a WOLFTASTIC MOONDAY!!!!!!!!
