I think there's argument for both side,

For one side, giving the bite might  be dangerous since she's already something right now (Someone said you can't be two things at once, I remember hearing this, but I watch too many supernatural shows to know where I heard it from), and it might end up killing her

For the other side, the argument is not that it would work but that, not doing it will result in her death so what does it hurt to actually give her the bite, at least with that there is a chance.

Funny though, I remember seeing this exact situation in Blood+, in that one, the main character decides to give her blood to the ailing girl in the hope that her inevitable death might be reversed, and it appears to work for about 2 seconds, before the stigma with renewed speed and force rapidly ravages the ailing girl, Killing her before she finishing shedding a tear, or could even completely say "Help me". Exactly. And that's the thing: Scott's never been the pragmatic sort, and he's always tried to do the "right" thing, even when that's not nowhere CLOSE to being in the same ballpark as the "smart" thing, and so..................that's why we're judging him.

Because we're assuming (as we haven't been given much evidence to the contrary; barring that one time when he knowingly left Hayden out there as bait.....and even then, she wasn't really bait, he just couldn't find somewhere truly safe to protect her, and wanted to use the opportunity to catch a DD) that he's still acting with that kind of mindset, and thus, the only reason we can think of that would result in him refusing to try and help her is that....well.....he's afraid it'll kill her, and he doesn't want to be directly responsible for that.

Which is him (again) putting his own desire to preserve a degree of innocence in himself above the good of others. Which is selfish.

I really do hope that he has another reason. If he's actually got a plan, some well-thought out scheme (or at least doesn't want to potentially further the DD's or possibly Theo's goal's) that necessitates him letting Hayden die rather than give her the Bite, then I'd accept it. Hell, I'd applaud it!

I'm perfectly happy for Scott to make the hard call and let someone die if it'll help him save others (and even happier for him to kill relatively bad people to save good ones). I've been fine with that from Day 1. Scott's the one who's thrown a hissy fit every time the subject has come up. ;) Just wanna see Scott kill theo, lol. and I keep reading things, a lot of people think in the finale he's gonna evolve into a full wolf like Derek, and to be honest I will be so pissed off if he does, I hate that form and I really think it's lame as crap to pass that onto everyone, at this point it's not even special, everyone can do It now, really hope Scott owns, or gets a form we haven't seen, hell they could make him look like Deucalion! would be way cheaper then cgi, and he would still be a bad ass, UGH I wish they'd just grow Scott instead of keeping him the way he is...
