Scott, Lydia, and Isaac sit in the Sheriff's office waiting to answer questions. Scott pictures Allison dying and then remembers Chris telling him to look at him. "You have to remember. You called me first, okay? Say it." Scott tries to repeat the story he's being coached to say. That he called Mr. Argent. That there were two assailants who tried to steal their car. They wore masks. One of them had a knife. "You think. Don't get specific, Scott." Chris tells him that if he gets confused to just repeat, "It happened so fast."
Scott turns to look at Chris and asks him how he's doing this--being so calm. Chris looks away from him, his eyes welling with tears. "It's what we do."
Deputy Jordan Parrish asks the three of them if they can remember anything else. Isaac whispers that he's sorry, and the Sheriff puts his hand on his shoulder. "It just happened so fast," Isaac says.
Stiles and Kira are at Kira's house with her mother. Noshiko offers Stiles some tea to calm him. "What, like magic tea?" "No, chamomile tea. Drink it." Ken Yukimura walks in declaring that Stiles isn't safe there. Noshiko points out the Stiles isn't safe anywhere. Kira tells them that Allison killed an Oni. "Doesn't that mean something?" Kira's parents aren't sure how it's possible, but Kira insists that she did do it. "Yeah, and then they killed her," Stiles says. "Allison's dead. Now I guess the only good thing is it looks like I'm dying, too."
Noshiko sits next to Stiles and says that the nogitsune made a powerful move by splitting the two of them. Kira asks what their move is, and her father replies that they need a divine move. Noshiko explains that, "In the game of Go, it's what we call a truly inspired, or out-of-the-box move." The nogitsune has had the advantage up until now. They need a divine move to turn the game around. "Okay, so is anyone feeling divinely inspired?" Stiles asks.
Kira asks her mom about the jar she buried the nogitsune fly in. But it wasn't that jar that kept the nogitsune trapped, it was the fact that she buried it under the nemeton. Stiles realizes that Deaton knows more about the nemeton than anyone.
Chris and Isaac go the Argents' apartment. Isaac is sobbing quietly. Chris stops just inside the hall and doesn't turn to look at him as he says, "I appreciate the concern, but you don't have to stay." He tells him that he's dealt with this before, even as his voice breaks. "I have a capacity and an ability to compartmentalize my emotions." Isaac looks at him and whispers, "I don't."
Chris pulls Isaac into a hug. After a few seconds, his expression hardens from grief into anger.
The Sheriff tells Deputy Jordan Parrish that they need to keep this quiet because once the press finds out they're going to be all over Scott, Lydia, Isaac, Kira, and Stiles. Parrish asks if he'd like a squad car outside his house, and the Sheriff agrees to it. As he's looking out into the station, Parrish sees an Oni appear behind another deputy. He draws his gun, much to the Sheriff's surprise, and starts shooting at the Oni.
Derek uses a lighter to burn the rest of Ethan's wolfsbane wound closed. Presumably he put some wolfsbane in the wound first, like he had to do with his own in Season 1. Derek snaps his lighter shut and tells them that they should be fine in a few hours unless they get themselves shot again.
Aiden marches away, ready to go find Lydia. Derek asks if he's going to convince Lydia to go with him. "I'm gonna try and convince her to run and hide. Like any sane person would do." Derek looks at Ethan and asks if he intends the same for Danny. "Allison's dead. Stiles is dying. What do you think?" "I think Danny won't believe you. And Lydia would never run and hide." Aiden asks if he means because she wouldn't leave Stiles. But he means she wouldn't leave Scott.
