"If Jackson doesn't know what he's doing, then he probably doesn't know someone's controlling him." Allison says on the phone
"Or he doesn't remember." Scott says
"What if it's the same kind of thing that happened with Lydia when she took off from the hospital?" Hope asks
"A fugue state?" Allison asks
"He'd have to forget everything. The murder. Getting rid of the blood." Stiles says
"But he had help with one thing. The video." Hope says
"And someone else helped him forget that." Scott says "Whoever's controlling him."
"Are you sure Jackson has no clue about any of this?" Allison asks
"He thinks he's still becoming a werewolf and that being with Lydia somehow delayed the whole thing." Hope answers
"So do we try to convince him he's not?"
"If it helps us find out who's controlling him, then yeah." Scott says
"Do you think he'll talk to us after what we did?"
"Yeah, it's us. He'll talk to us. Right?" Stiles says
Later:
"You will not go within 50 feet of Jackson Whittemore. You will not speak to him. You will not approach him. You will not assault or harass him physically or psychologically." Noah reads from Jackson's statement.
"What about school?" Stiles asks
"You can attend classes while attempting to maintain a 50 foot distance."
"Okay, what if we both have to use the bathroom at the same time and there's only two stalls available amd they're only next to each other?"
Silence.
"I'll just hold it." Stiles answers his question
After that scene:
"Do I need to remind you how lucky we are that they're not pressing charges?" Noah tells Stiles
"Oh, come on, it was just a joke."
"A joke?"
"Yes, I didn't think it would be taken this seriously. Dad, humor's very subjective, okay? I mean, we're talking about multiple levels of interpretation here."
"Move!" Melissa tells Scott "It's not just this. Although, a restraining order is a new low that I didn't think that you would reach quite this soon. It's everything on top of it. The completely bizarre behavior, the late nights coming home, having to beg Mr. Harris for you to make up that chemestry test that you missed."
"I missed a chemestry test?"
"Really, Scott? Really? I have to ground you. You are grounded."
"What about work?"
"Fine...other than work. And no tv."
"The tvs broken."
"Then no computer."
"I need the computer for school."
"Then no...Stiles and Hope"
"What—no, Stiles?" Stiles asks
"No Hope?" Hope asks.
"No!" Melissa yells. "I mean, I would have approved Hope, but you are taking this girl down with you, so I'm doing her a favor. Listen, is this about Allison? Is it about your father? It is, isn't it?"
Stiles was gesturing behind Melissa.
"We'll talk about this at home. I'm gonna go get the car."
"Hope, let's go home." her dad tells her.
