Pros: I don't know if the drama this episode was silly or awesome but I like it, LESBIANS! KISSING! I WAS SO TURNED ON AND I CRIED WHEN EMILY WAS DEAD - I WAS ACTUALLY HARDCORE SHIPPING THEM, Scott was adorable and awesome, Allison was badass, loved Mr. Argent, new threat seems to be in town (and it's killing virgins -run Stiles, run!), Papa Stilinski is THIS close to being in the know, love Mrs. Mc Call so much, Stiles and Lydia snarking, detective!Stiles is so so so awesome - I want him to donate sperm so I can have his babies, DEREK IS SO AWESOME AND HEROIC AND HE IGNORED EVIL!PETER AND FOLLOWED HIS HEART AND HE GOT ALL SLICED UP FOR IT AND OMG HE MIGHT SURPASS STILES AS MY FAVORITE, great acting all around this episode - loved Allison's brooding, Mr Argent's sad face, Holland should win a fucking award she is amazing, STILES CRYING OH MY BABY (so glad Dylan is making movies), Derek is given a whole deeper level of awesome by Tyler H's performance and Tyler Posey has really grown, I love that the mistaken killer of the guy at the pool played a role
Cons: TOO MANY QUESTIONS THAT ARE MAKING THE SHOW LOSE FOCUS/ I FEAR WILL NEVER BE ANSWERED - here are some: What's with the fireflies? What about the girl from the first episode? So what's the alpha pack's plan? How does it make sense? Can they see the future? What about Miss Morel? How is Derek's sister alive and why didn't he go to her and let the non bleeding teenagers deal with the traumatized woman (BS romance plot, that's why)? WHAT'S UP WITH LYDIA???? WHY IS ISAAC CALLING FOR THE DEATH'S OF INNOCENT FELLOW WEREWOLVES? I have more but don't feel like listing them, I take it back - I want no love interest for Derek (unless it's really really well done), I wasn't digging Derek/teacher lady, why won't they give Stiles a love interest? Derek's not emotionally ready for romance and I prefer him to have scenes with Cora, (I'm even more protective of him now y'all), plus it seemed a bit phoned in but I hope they'll win me over (I'll try have an open mind - must appease my Sterek shipper), so damn many unnecessary dramatic reveals
Despite long con list, this was still a great episode. Cons are mostly me voicing concerns.
