Why she was helping them and then not and then being on the list, manipulating other people, and the referring to the benefactor as a 'he' and that all that stuff just does not add up. A thought I had is that maybe she has multiple personality disorder. That would explain the different ways that she has been acting. One personality could be the helpful Meredith. Another could be the diabolical Benefactor. There could be others too. And in some cases of Multiple Personality Disorder the different personalities can be aware of each other. Maybe its the other personalities she is talking to when she is pretending to be on the phone.

What would even be trippier is that if the different personalities had different abilities. Like maybe there is one that has the power to sense other supernaturals.

Maybe another is telepathic. She spent time in the hospital for a year. Maybe it was during the same time and place that Peter Hale was in after the fire and she telepathically read his mind and learned all about the Hale family. She would then know about the Vault, Derek's reslationship with Kate and be able to use that information to manipulate both of them into getting into the vault. Could also be why Peter is not on the dead pool. That experience could have left some sort of fondness for Peter in her.

Maybe another has a medium type ability that can channel the dead and she uses that to tap into Lydia's Grandmother to create the code for the dead pool.

Just saying it would all explain her different behaviors. Haha! I was just thinking about her having MPD myself.

Definitely was a shock, finding out Meredith was the benefactor, my son watched the last episode with me and he said 'what? seriously, the looney is the benefactor?'.

But yeah, I agree with your theory also.
