Season 3 filming begins today for Teen Wolf. Amidst our excitement over this little fact, we decided to come up with 10 questions that we would love to see answered next year! Are you listening, Jeff Davis?
There are tons of questions we want to know the answers to, and a lot of them we’re certain will be answered once season 3 airs sometime in the spring or summer. But there are other nagging subjects we’d like to see addressed that might not be acknowledged until much later on. Either way, here’s our wish list:
ONE: What is the Sheriff’s first name?
Our guess: We don’t have a specific guess, mind you, because that would just be a shot in the dark. But our prediction is that it is something equally as strange as Stiles’ first name is rumored to be. Maybe it’s a Stilinski family tradition to give their sons the strangest, most unpronounceable names possible. And, when Stiles’ mother decided to name her son after her father, the Sheriff agreed.
TWO: How does the vet know the Hales?
Our guess: Deaton was a werewolf hunter who went soft. He realized that not all werewolves were bad people and decided to stop prosecuting them and start helping them. He knew the Hales were a good family – consisting of both werewolves and humans – and decided to do whatever he could to keep them safe.
THREE: Who is Greenberg and why does Coach hate him so much?
Our guess: Well, there was that one time Greenberg started a pink eye epidemic. But we know the anger at Greenberg started well before that. Perhaps he interrupted his Independence Day speech one year? Maybe Coach just doesn’t like brown-nosers. Maybe there actually isn’t a reason, and it just developed out of boredom and frustration. And we’d be kind of okay with that. We like Coach best when he’s irrationally angry anyway.
FOUR: Who are Jackson’s parents?
Our guess: What if Jackson’s parents were werewolf hunters? What if the car accident was actually a premeditated attack from a werewolf? How ironic, then, that their son would become a werewolf. Despite the fact that we probably won’t be seeing Jackson this season, it would be neat to learn he’s got some distant werewolf hunter family members that have decided to track him down and welcome him to the family business, only to be surprised by what he’s become.
FIVE: Is there a cure in Lydia’s blood?
Our guess: Yes. What a thing to dangle in front of Scott – the solution to his nightmares is inside one of his friends’ veins. Of course, he doesn’t have to kill her to get to it. But if he does take the cure, he’s essentially out of commission. And what happens if word about a cure gets out to other werewolves? We don’t think they’d be satisfied with just letting her walk. No, they’d either all converge on her (wanting it for themselves), or they’d see it as a weapon someone could use against them and want to destroy her.
SIX: What’s Peter’s endgame?
Our guess: Peter knew that the kanima was going to attract attention from some unwelcome sources. Whether or not he knew it would be an Alpha Pack is anyone’s guess, but Peter is all about self-preservation. He didn’t want to become Alpha again right away because he knew that would make him a target for the Alpha Pack. But once they’re out of the picture, we’re sure he’ll make his move.
SEVEN: How did Stiles’ mother die?
Our guess: We know there are a lot of theories roaming around the Internet, but we’re going to part ways with one of the most popular ones for our guess. We think Stiles’ mother died of a heart attack. Maybe Stiles believes he was too much to handle as a kid, and feels like he could’ve had a part in her death (hence the guilt we see late in season 2). It could also explain his degree of worry when it comes to his father’s safety, as well as his incessant pleas that his father eat healthier.
EIGHT: Is Gerard still human?
Our guess: Gerard is not quite human, not quite werewolf. He’s some sick mixture of both that’s more volatile and more dangerous. He’s a ticking time bomb. He might not come back into the game until much later on in the season, but when he does, we’re predicting that he’s going to throw our favorite characters one wicked curve ball.
NINE: Will Sheriff Stilinski become aware of the werewolves?
Our guess: Yes. We think this season will finally be the season that the Sheriff gets dropped right into the middle of it. The Alpha Pack is in town and we’re sure they’re not exactly going to stay quiet. They’re in Beacon Hills to cause trouble, and that’s bound to get noticed. Past seasons have seen our characters contemplating the idea of telling him, and we think the events that unfold next year will finally drive them to do it.
TEN: What other creatures are contained in the bestiary?
Our guess: So far, we know that both the werewolf and the kanima are shape-shifters. Perhaps, in this world, that’s the only sort of supernatural creature that exists. And, in this case, maybe we can expect other monsters such as a wendigo, a skin-walker, or even people who can turn into other animals (not just a wolf).
