So far he's played the doctor's game, and while trying to fix things, he's always been played by them. So such unexpected immoral move that no one could have foreseen that Scott would do may shake some stones and give Scott an upper hand. Hayden may or may not die, but it seems this is a risk Scott is willing to take in order to win.. You see, that was my first thought too. I thought that giving Hayden the bite was what Theo wanted to happen (especially since he kind of suggested it to Liam), and anything Theo wants is bad...so it makes sense to hope that Scott doesn't do it. :P

Then I thought about it again. We know that Liam wants to kill Scott next episode...but why? I think it's because Scott did NOT give Hayden the bite.

My Theory:

Theo knows that Scott would not want to give Hayden the bite, but he put the thought in Liam's head to put Scott in the situation where he would have to say no to him. This will make Liam completely lose fate in Scott; since the super moon is coming, Liam would have less control and less rational thinking than ever. Liam will then believe that he has to kill Scott and steal his Alpha status in order to give Hayden the bite and thus, possibly save his loved one.

Thus, with Malia losing trust in Scott, Scott losing trust in Stiles, Lydia doing her own thing with Parrish, and Liam pretty much hating Scott, the pack is over. Scott's at his weakest, and this is the greatest chance for Theo to capitalize on it. This is pretty much what I was thinking.
