And since Araya wanted to know what kind of Alpha Scott was, she did the "test" as she put it, and wanted to see if he would pass it. Afterwards, when she gave them a guide (Braeden) she said that she now knew what kind of Alpha he was. And about the turning part, she said it was his "next step". And throughout the series, it is said that werewolf starts to lose his/hers powers in steps when more and more elctricity is steadily applied into his/hers chains. So, no werewolf should have been able to break free from those chains, but given Scott's "force of will" that made him an Alpha the first place, he may be able to overcome it with great concentration and effort, much like with the Mountain Ash barrier. Once again conjecture of what your reading into what happend. Not what was truly happening. Like i said until they show whether an alpha can overcome that you can't say that its something special. It could just as easily be theres no high enough electrical current to completely shut off an alphas abilites. As for his next step. That was in direct relation to the fact she believed he was going to turn someone. Like i said being a true alpha is never even mentioned. I would be completely into reading it that way if at anytime during their meeting or that episode it had been brought up. Hell i would have been fine with it if at the point where stiles says we brought an Alpha he had said we brought a True Alpha. But its never shown or implied that she either knew or even cared that scott was a true alpha. Or that it had any bearing on anything that happend.
