He wanted Derek onside with Scott and might have progressed from there had he not been killed. Do you mind directing me to where in the episodes the show states this is the reason. I mean, it is certainly possible. I just wondering where this becomes canon.

Then again, wasn't Scott's presence in the woods slightly random.

Also, if this isn't stated in the show, isn't it possible that Peter was stuck primarily biting people at a certain time, away from places he'd draw attention....like the woods. He was trying to keep a very low profile, after all. Then, given the randomness of Scott, we could guess that it was more a matter of opportunity.

But, you know, I'm interested in learning where the show makes this canon, despite my thoeretical possibilites.
