Don't get me wrong, I've always liked Teen Wolf. But in terms of writing and especially now EDITING, they've been lacking. Here are a few things that bugged me about this week's episode:

1. The first thing that popped out was the confrontation between the Mute & Peter in Derek's loft. So apparently its stated that they fought and thats how Derek & Stilinski got a hold of the Mute's arm-keyboard-glove? I feel like there was a scene to compliment this but instead, it was edited out and left for our imaginations. Even if there wasn't.. really? We're supposed to just assume that the Mute somehow dropped his most reliable tool? And this reliable tool even contains the codes necessary to contact the benefactor making it even more important?

2. Next is the fact that they keep calling Malia a Werecoyote. Yes, she was transformed into a four legged animal last season, but judging from this episode, she looks, sounds, and acts like a werewolf. She even has the werewolf make up on and everything. If not, could they somehow create distinguishable creatures better? I would never even guess what Kira is apart from glowing eyes and a sword. And even then that doesn't scream "JAPANESE FOX".

3. When they revealed that this season was going to have assassins, I was pumped. Little did I know that the only remotely cool one was going to get his throat slashed, and the rest are going to be TEENAGERS. TEENAGERS IN HIGH SCHOOL. SIGH.

4. This one I don't have to say much about because we can all agree that Scott isn't anything special anymore. At this point I've accepted the fact that the "true alpha" plot was nothing but a way for jeff to turn scott into an alpha without having him kill anyone, and doesn't have anything special about it. Sure, he'll be a leader, but he will never be an ALPHA.

Yes, the episode had some funny moments with Stiles & Scott, and some good old throwbacks to Season 1, but Jeff can't keep hand feeding us nods to earlier seasons while sacrificing continuity & explanation for the sake of furthering the plot.
