In the first episode, Scott, Lydia and Stiles, along with their backup of Kira and Malia, travelled to the Mexican hunters to try and find out where Derek was. During their torture, it was revealed that Scott knew the whole time.

Why did Scott go through all the trouble to travel there and get tortured for a question he already knew the answer to (when he finally budged, he said "Kate Argent")? I'm not sure if they revealed the question later on through this series but I'm just curious. Cause if he knew the answer the whole time was he just taking the piss out of those Hunters and wasting their time or...?
