User blog comment:Alexa12/The Finale Sucked./@comment-72.156.214.183-20120816170434

I have absolutely loved this show since ep #1, but I swear the next-to-last ep was better than the finale this season. Here are the things that tripped me up:

1. After not knowing a thing about the supernatural (other than seeing Peter Alpha'd out in her dreams), Lydia receives a strange text from someone (who?) explaining that she needs to show up at an unknown location to save Jackson's life. I don't think she's even seen him as a Kanima at this point. Then she shows up, knows Jackson as the Kanima and saves the day with a house key. Unrealistic much?

2. If Gerard's plan was to get Scott to bring Jackson to Derek, then kidnapping Stiles would do nothing to assist in that objective and made no sense! I guess the writers wanted an excuse for Stiles and his dad to get close again since things weren't entirely right there. Still, I think they could've found a means less intrusive to the rest of the storyline - that was freaking confusing!

3. Peter shows up and he might as well have been the paperboy for all the attention it got. Other than the locker room scene with Scott and Isaac, there was no acknowledgment of him coming back from the dead. That was a bit of a let down, but whatevs. ..

4. A pack of Alphas shows up whenever there's a new Alpha in town, huh? (According to Peter at the end of the finale) Where were they when Laura or Peter were Alphas?
