It is down to Derek and Allison since T.H. and C.R. are the only ones in the cast who have not yet signed up for S4. However, Dylan posted a promo vid for ep. 24 on his Facebook page which showed Derek being shot in the chest, straight to the heart. For some of us, it's a sure ball that Derek's dead -- the proof is there, what else is left to speculate? Then again, knowing Jeff, he won't post that clip of the ep on the video and say "THERE, DEREK'S THE ONE WHO DIES." Where's the mystery? What's the use of all the secrecy if he was going to show which cast member kicks the bucket before the episode even airs? It's as blatant as a slap on the face, so there'd be no more use for all the  cloak-and-dagger theories we've been throwing around. Jeff being Jeff, he seems to like the idea of toying with TW fans. So I have the niggling feeling that Derek will get to live on for S4, even if his scenes in 3B have been annoyingly scant besides smidges of him being hot and shirtless. Allison on the other hand has lived out her purpose as a main character I think. She is now just a supporting member alongside her dad in helping Scott and the rest of his ragtag gang in solving the Nogitsune trainwreck that entered Stiles' mind. When Scott and Lydia went looking for Stiles, they were aided by Aiden and Ethan for the majority. If Allison dies, it may have an impact on Scott's character in S4 though they seem to have gone their separate ways (her being Scott's first love). Also, with the speculation that Peter's going to make a fanny grab for the Alpha title next season, I'm assuming that Scott will need Derek's help in cracking the Hale family's secrets and how to put a stop to Uncle Creeper's diabolical schemes. I'm sincerely hoping Derek doesn't go, as his plot and character can definitely use development seeing as he has been portrayed as "Mr. Brooding-and-always-hooks-up-with-crazy-sluts", plus his clan's deeply rooted in Beacon Hills' mystique and their role in the crazy going on in the town has only been explored at a skin-deep level -- which won't be dug up if only one Hale is left alive (Peter) in the show to narrate his version of the "true story", without another existing family member to contradict him (and sort of 'speak' for Talia from beyond the grave).

So there. I've pitched in my two cents as to why Derek (love that broken werewolf to pieces, I swear) I think doesn't die. *hides under a rock*
