I've mentioned it before, probably to you actually, because this seems really similar to when I answered it, but there are a lot of explanations to her being in the institute already. If she went around insisting that she was a coyote for years to her dad and psychologist, especially if she got violent about it, they might've locked her away. Clearly she has violence issues, look at the extended promo, punching Stiles. Or the psychologist might've just decided the best way to integrate her would be in a controlled environment. Or, he might not be able to afford good outpatient care. Sometimes it doesn't matter what you want, it matters what you can afford. Especially where insurance is involved. No I don't think I've discussed Tate and the institute before with anyone but anyway....yeah I can see that there are many possibilities and no telling which one if any will pan out but as for the punch...some were saying they thought it might have been after the kiss...if he comes up to her acting like he doesn't know her after making out with her I don't think that is neccessarily proof positive she's violent if she punches him  (and I'm not saying she might not be...most of the Hales have a little bit of violence in them anyway)...it might be justified at least from her perspective (if it were me I might have punched him myself if it turns out it is after they made out)...just my opinion.
