Although Allison makes more sense to me now, in the past episode Scott says that they are done, that they arent together anymore confirming that he has completely moved on. Plus Crystal is kinda not pulling the teenage look anymore. Additionally it would give Chris an intersting arc. The thing is, while it would give Chris an interesting arc, he's really only tied to the core group via Allison. If they get rid of her, I'm pretty sure Chris is gone too. Seems like they've been trying to tie him to the group via Derek recently. Just sayin'... There's a difference between tying someone to the group through a character and having them work together. Chris is Allison's father -- as far as we know, they came back to Beacon Hills from France because of Allison. The only reason Chris is really still involved in the supernatural happenings of Beacon Hills is because of Allison. The only thing that stops Chris from killing Derek or visa versa is Allison.

I just don't see his character staying relevant if we lose her. Depending on how she dies, if she does, such as if the other hunter family kills her, accidentally or otherwise, I can see a good revenge arc/help the Beacon Hills supe community in honor of her memory, because it's what she would've wanted him to do. It would keep him around reasonably, at least for one season. And do we really know that they'll get more than one more season? No, we don't. Jeff may be saying that a fifth is almost guaranteed, but nothing ever is. That's just optimism at this point. It's ratings -- Teen Wolf is a ratings giant for MTV. The only way they won't get a fifth season is if we all quit watching before the midpoint of season 4. As much as I'm often irked by the writing, I think I'm in this one for the long haul. :P

Anyways... I think your idea is a possibility but Chris doesn't communicate with the kids wilingly. He does pretty much everything he does on his own, unless he has no other choice. (Like, investigating the Oni. Which he only knew about because Isaac got attacked in his house because the kids don't tell him anything unless they're really friggin' desperate.) So, if he gets a revenge arc, the only realistic way it ties in (in my opinion) is if he becomes the Big Bad.

His idea of helping -- we've seen -- involves doing stuff on his own. That's how he was trying to handle the Oni situation, that's how he was trying to handle the Darach, that's pretty much how he's tried to handle everything since he found out his family is full of sociopaths. So he's still not really tied to the main group and the main plot except *through* the Big Bad. Unless Jeff wants to introduce a massive inconsistency in his character and the characters of the kids, I really truly don't see it working for him to still be around without Allison, except maybe at like the season finale each season when Scott's like "we need more help" and then goes and basically begs him for help.
