Scott is so openly against killing that he refuses to what the obvious choice is will delay it until he makes the right choice and that can result in many ppl dying. Scott will learn that it is ok to kill someone as long as you are saving a life in the process. The reason Scott's dad will be the one to teach him will be bc this is the 1 lesson his father will teach him and it is important bc it is the thing that is holding himself back the most.

- Basically Stiles would probably be dead if it was Scott who came across Stiles and the Chemist instead of his dad I agree with this post. However, I also think the dream was supposed to make us look more at Peter's condition. I don't remember the exact words, but in "Time of Death", Peter mentioned that he was in a coma for 6 years, and that when a werewolf goes through a coma, they can have crazy dreams that show the state of the person.

Scott was "dead" for almost 45 minutes. Good, heroic, moral Scott had this crazy dream which eventually led to him killing Liam, and even smiling about it. Peter, who was crazy even before the fire, was in that condition for SIX YEARS. I think Jeff wanted to foreshadow how psychotic Peter would be now and how that would play out towards the end of the season.
