User blog comment:Lupin505/The Dead Should Stay Dead! Right...?/@comment-5982789-20130202062410

To begin, another awesome page from you Lupin. Very cool.

Now on to the important stuff.

Victoria Argent(Eaddy Mays)

When I first heard about this(saw it on the front page) my first thought were she was visiting. I imagine lots of actors, especially a close knit group as the TW cast, like to do that sort of thing. Never once thought about her being on an episode. Then I read about the tweets and that got me sort of thinking. Finally, I narrowed it down to 2 possible ways for her to be back on the show.

First is her appearing via Allison hallucinations(or dreams but I kind of put those 2 together). If I remember right, it is possible I heard wrong, Jeff said that Allison is going to be very cut off from everyone in S3. Personally, I think that can lead to a bit of instability. Going from having a loving boyfriend and a group of true friends to losing all of it, that's worse than where Boyd started at the begining of S2. Combine this with the losses she's had over the past year and the mind could potentially give. You could argue that it's 4 months later and Master Davis said it has given them time to get past all that and the rules of TV land apply. Here is my argument to that. Derek has barely let go of his family dying over SIX years ago and Allison has had less than a year. You could argue that she might have it worse. Kate, who Allison saw more as a sister than an aunt, was murdered right before her eyes, she has at most 3 maybe 3 1/2 months to get over that before her mother kills herself, who just earlier that day or the day before tried to talk to her and she completely rejected her. This is the big one for me if she does actually appear in any episodes.

Option number 2, she never died at all. I mean yeah we all saw Chris help her drive a giant kitchen knife into her heart but we also know that Victoria said she could feel the wolf and that her eyes were glowing when they pushed the knife in. I think there is a chance she was already too much a werewolf to be killed by that kind of wound. Look at Derek in Heart Monitor, he took an Alpha claw through the back, most likely through the upper spine since when Peter lifted him he didn't sway to either side, possible coming out of his chest and still managed to survive even when a wound from an Alpha is supposed to take longer to heal.

Now for the reasons it couldn't be for Flashback or Ghost role. I don't see the flashback idea working because that would mean Victoria and her family would have to have been in Beacon Hills at the same time or just before Kate and possibly Gerard lived there. If at the same time Chris would have noticed the whole Derek/Kate thing going on and as soon as the fire happened he would have been suspicious. If just before, pretty much the same thing. If Kate moved into a town with a known wolf pack and within a year of his sister, who he knows for being a wild loose cannon, being there the pack is nearly wiped out would again put suspicion on her. For the Ghost idea, I think Jeff would see that as being too much of an easy way out and would over complicate things. Because if he brought back the ghost of Victoria then people would want ghost Kate or ghost Laura or even the whole Hale clan. Plot holes and shit being given away too easy galore!

As Lupin pointed out, these are all just my speculations. I have no real defining evidence to support them.

Peter Hale's Great Return

I thought this was pretty epic for S2! As confident as we saw him act, I bet most, me included, never saw him having such an intricate come back(with more muscles I might add. death is apparently very good for the uppper body). I wasn't even a big fan of Peter's and I was still like "Holy shit, that was awesome!" Truly a cheater of death. Can't wait to see him in this coming season. Do you think Lydia is freak when she realizes he's going to still be hanging around?

Jackson Commits Suicide and Lives?

Is it really suicide if you allow yourself to be killed and it is for the greater good(does that sound as cult like as I think it does)?

I don't think Jackson ever really died, even when he stabbed himself on the field. Modern medicine can simulate death, why can't the supernatural do it better? But like I was saying, he was never really dead. Just in a sort of suspended animation, waiting to come back. When Derek and Peter rammed their claws into Jackson, maybe they weren't really killing Jackson so much as ending the Kanima. That side of him gone may have put him into the state he was in while running around as the Kanima until the wolf took root and revived him. It's a theory but just as possible as any other out there.

Gerard's Slimy Black Problem

Not only did no see Scott's plan coming, even if we did, we had no idea it would ACTUALLY work! I mean that was just a wow moment for me. And the fact that he hid it from everyone, possibly even Stiles, just kind of baffles the mind!

But in all seriousness, I completely agree with what Lupin said. You can't really properly argue with his logic.

Conclusion

In short:

The jury is still out on Victoria.

Peter is a 'Crafty Canadian'.

We will probably never really know if Jackson actually died for a minute or not.

Gerard is still a very much alive douche bag.

GOOD NIGHT!
