Scott tries to control his transformation so he can spend more time with Allison. Elsewhere, Derek continues trying to make an ally of Scott.
The episode opens with a video store clerk on a ladder changing light bulbs before it switches to Lydia and Jackson who are out in the parking lot trying to decide on a movie. While Lydia stays in the car Jackson goes inside and notices that no one is there. He calls out and starts to look around before noticing feet sticking out from one of the aisles. As he walks up he sees the clerk with his throat ripped out and backs up knocking the clerks ladder down and causes most of the lights to go out. He hears growling and hides behind one of the shelves before peering out to see the eyes of the Alpha a few rows back.
The Alpha knocks down the shelves causing Jackson to get stuck face down on the floor, pinned by the shelf. The Alpha walks up to him and almost attacks him but notices the scratch-marks on the back of Jackson's neck (caused by Derek from the last episode) and instead crashes through the window and runs off past Lydia who is still in the car. Meanwhile Stiles and his father, the sheriff, are eating dinner in a squad car when they hear about the murder on the police radio. When they get to the scene we notice Scott and Derek up on the roof where Derek shows Scott what the Alpha has done. They head back to Derek's house where Scott tells him he wants to focus on having a normal life but Derek reminds him that the Alpha will kill him unless they team up to fight i
Based on the 1985 Michael J. Fox film, the MTV series stars Tyler Posey (ABC Family's "Lincoln Heights") as a high school student who gets superpowers, including the ability to woo girls, after a wolf attack. TEEN WOLF is the story of Scott as he tries to walk the line between what he wants and what he can't help from wanting. Will the bite end up being a gift? Or will it be a curse? And what will it all mean for his relationship with Allison - the girl he can't get enough of? Only time will tell if he should embrace his newfound powers, or if he should fear them.
