One more side note to my above post concerning Gerard and his Kanima status. This just came to my attention as I was doing some more research in the old episodes. In the episode Frenemy, Matt is still unknown to be the Master of Jackson's Kanima. During the fight in the industrial complex between Jackson, as the Kanima and Derek fight, Chris Argent shoots the Kanima in the chest several times but then is kicked by it into a bridge support. The kanima then crawls over to Gerard where it appears to pause and simply stare up at the old man. (http://teenwolf.wikia.com/wiki/Frenemy)

Why would Jackson do this? Gerard hadn't killed Matt yet, so why wouldn't he attack Gerard? There are a couple of reasons I can think of for this. My first theory is that Jackson somehow sensed the cancer in Gerard and believed him to be dying anyway and therefore no threat. The second theory is that Gerard has the genetic disposition in him to become a Kanima if bitten and Jackson sensed that he is a possible "clan member", thus ignoring him. It has to be one of these two or a mistake on the part of the Teen Wolf folks.
