Teen Wolf Season 1

Wolf Moon

Sheriff Stilinski arrives at the home base for a search party in the woods at night. There are already other officers on the scene, and at least one K9 unit. The officers sweep the through the trees.

Scott McCall is in his room, lacing up his lacrosse stick. After he's satisfied, he does some chin-ups on the bar above his bathroom door and gets ready for bed. While brushing his teeth, he hears a suspicious sound outside the house. Scott quickly gets dressed, grabs a bat, and goes out on the porch to investigate. He hears another sound, and then suddenly his best friend, Stiles flops over the edge of the porch roof upside down. They both scream in terror, and Scott nearly beats Stiles before realizing that it's him. Stiles complains that Scott wasn't answering his phone and demands to know why Scott has a bat. "I thought you were a predator." Stiles lets this go on account of how stupid it sounds.

Instead, he tells Scott that every officer and even some state police have been called in to investigate a body that two joggers found in the woods. Stiles drops down from the roof, and Scott asks him if the body was dead. "No, a body of water. Yes, dumbass, a dead body." Scott is confused as to what the police are looking for if they already found a body, and Stiles can barely contain his excitement at telling him that they only found half of a young woman in her twenties. He declares that they're going to check it out.

Stiles drives them to Beacon Hills Preserve. Scott and Stiles argue about the wisdom of being out there, with Scott complaining that he wanted to get a good night's sleep before lacrosse practice the next day. Scott has decided that he's playing first line next year instead of being relegated to the bench. Stiles tells him that everyone should have dreams, "even a pathetically unrealistic one." Scott lets Stiles's cynicism slide. Instead, he asks which half of the body they're out there looking for and what they'll do if they run into the killer. Stiles admits to not having thought about either of these things, apparently a common enough character flaw that Scott isn't surprised.

As they climb a hill, Scott starts to have an asthma attack and takes out his inhaler. The boys throw themselves to the ground and spot the police officers in the distance. Stiles is overjoyed that they've found the action and takes off, leaving Scott, who is still wheezing. Scott hurries after him, and they both run through the woods. Stiles finally stops when Scott calls his name, and then he falls to the ground in terror as a police dog barks at him. The dog's partner tells Stiles to stay where he is, but the Sheriff is there and tells his man to stand down.

The Sheriff asks if Stiles listens in on all his phone calls, and Stiles replies, "No. Well, not the boring ones." Sheriff Stilinski also asks where Scott is, but Stiles covers for him and tells his father that Scott is at home sleeping. The Sheriff doesn't believe this and calls out for Scott anyway. Scott hides himself behind a tree, and eventually the Sheriff decides to walk his son back to his car, where they will have a talk about invasion of privacy. This is unfortunate for Scott, because if Stiles is forced to drive away, then he won't have a ride back home. Helpfully, it starts to rain.

With no alternative, Scott starts wandering through the preserve. It's unclear if he's attempting to get back to Stiles's car or not. He does, however, hear strange sounds in the woods. When he stops to use his inhaler, a herd of deer come thundering out of the darkness. Scott loses his inhaler as he falls to the ground and tries not to get trampled. After the herd is gone, Scott uses his cell phone as a flashlight to look for his inhaler, but instead finds the top half of the murder victim. Startled, he stumbles back and falls down the hill. At the bottom, he gets to his feet but doesn't get very far before he hears growling behind him. Something large, black, and with glowing yellow eyes attacks him. It knocks Scott to the ground, bites him, and lets him go.

Scott runs, clamoring through the woods, and stumbles onto a road into the path of an oncoming car. The SUV swerves to avoid him and continues on. Panting, Scott lifts his shirt to examine the bleeding bite wound on his right abdomen and then looks mournfully up the road as the rain comes down more heavily.
