Teen Wolf season 5, episode 16, “Lie Ability,” will provide us with the second half of the daring attempt to rescue Lydia Martin from Eichen House.
Teen Wolf 5×15 brought us the first attempt to save Lydia from Eichen. Stiles created an elaborate plan to break her out of the hell hole, but not everything went off without a hitch. Between a missing electronic key reader, the security guards, and Theo showing up with his pack, everyone ran into a bit of trouble.
At the end of the episode, we saw Scott calling out to his pack and everyone responding in kind. We hope Stiles’ Plan B works out better than Plan A. (That is, if he even has a Plan B.)
In episode 16, it’s clear that Valack is taking his experimentation to the next level. He’s already drilled a hole in Lydia’s head, and she can, supposedly, hear the dying screams of everyone all at once. With the use of a speaker we can only assume is emitting a special frequency, Valack is able to help her tune out the noise and focus on what right in front of her.
Unfortunately, that happens to be the female orderly’s body. She appears quite dead, and all thanks to the mask Valack put on her in episode 15. Terrifyingly, Valack tells her, “Don’t worry, Lydia. Nurse Cross wasn’t nearly as strong as you.”
But what could possibly happen if Valack does get a chance to put the mask on Lydia? Could she become a Dread Doctor, or would it merely give her information as to how they can defeat the parascientists? We’re kind of hoping we don’t find the answer to those questions, just in case the mask hurts Lydia even more than she already is.
