Episode #12 - Werewolf Purgatory
Feb 23, 2013, 06:00 AM
Natalie and Karen discuss episodes 2x05 and 2x06 of Teen Wolf, along with current news and season 3 spoilers.
Featured Song: Exit 59 - "Danny Boy"
Episode 2x05 "Venomous"
- As usual, our favorite quotes
- Why do we keep forgetting that Allison is actually awesome?
- Sheriff Stilinski heads up the Absent Spouse Brigade once again - just how long has Stiles' mom been dead, and will the sheriff ever move on? And can fanfic writers please stop imagining him moving on with Chris Argent?
- The pack's "testing" of Jackson and Lydia - why is Derek pretending like he knows facts when he does not actually know facts? (Also... apparently Derek didn't know Lydia had immunity? Apparently Scott didn't know Jackson got the bite? Wait, whaaaaat?)
- Natalie comes up with a terrible theory about Harris's over-the-top hatred of Stiles.
- Could Stiles' "were-jaguar" add weight to our "the Kanima is like your Patronus, but evil" speculation?
- We talk about the extent of werewolf healing powers, and what physical damage could actually kill them.
- Just gonna reiterate this: Damn you, Matt. Stop being so charismatic. It's getting stressful.
- Erica and Isaac seem oddly enthused about the ruthless killing for people who were just normal kids a couple of weeks ago.
- Karen wonders if "immune" is truly the right term to describe Lydia's condition, or if her lack of wolfyness may be the result of something else.
- Jackson and Lydia

Episode 2x06 "Frenemy"
- Favorite quotes
- We discuss the timeline and pacing of the show, and how the entire two seasons take place over a very short time period.
- Has Lydia really never felt strongly for a boyfriend? Or has she just not been allowed to show it?
- Jackson: what does he want, emotionally? Why is he so upset by the lack of love in his life when he has basically done this to himself?
- Gerard is not nice. The words we want to use to truly describe him would not be allowed on this website.
- A particular line seems to fit Allison as the very definition of her character.
- We take an in-depth look at the way Teen Wolf consistently and subtly portrays realistic teenage priorities and motivations, even in extreme circumstances.
- We cannot express how relieved we will be once Stiles tells his dad the dealio.
- Finally, Ms Morell, Latin, and "friend" vs "master" - why did she lie? Is she evil? She's probably evil.

News:
- Allison might have a new love interest. It may or may not be someone we've seen before. We try to work out who.
- Derek's new apartment will feature a bed, presumably for Derek sexytimes. "It'll be so awkward, and I'll laugh." We hope it's actually for naps instead.
- There will be little to no Sterek in first half of season 3. Dylan suggests throwing in some fanservice when the unlikely pair do finally meet up, and we hope it's worthwhile and not pandering.
- We get our first look at the Alpha Pack twins. "They're very identical, aren't they?... Why are they standing around in really tight jeans and no shirts?" "Because this is Teen Wolf."
- Another episode title, this time for 3x07, is revealed.
-Stiles will be trying to find love in a hopeless place, or something. His search leads him into the mystery of the season, and to some dead bodies. Karen comes up with a distressing theory.
- Season 3 will not include lacrosse. Quick, boycott the show or something.

Listener Feedback:
- A listener points out an inconsistency on the DVD artwork for Teen Wolf season 1.
- We're asked about the gang not filling in Lydia, and agree that she should have been made privy to all this information as she's obviously wrapped up in it. We also discuss her dynamic with young Peter... and older Peter... and then the conversation goes to a place. Sorry.
