It's a longshot, but I'm racking my brain to come up with an explanation for Peter's sly smirk when Derek first says he'll do it. Maybe he's secretly cheering for Scott to become a True Alpha (a twisted version of a proud father "Our little Scott") and he figures Scott will inherit. I really don't feel Peter would seek the Alpha status just for the sake of power. It would have to be strategically important, even for survival against Kali he'd prefer Derek to do the fighting. I kind of wondered if there wasn't a little pride on Peter's part that he was one that gave the bite to the one who would become the true alpha myself. There may even be some kind of honor or recognition that goes to Peter for that in werewolf circles.

What would be a kick in the pants would be if the power was going to shift to Peter because he died and came back and at the last minute because Scott died and was pulled back by Deaton, Scott got it instead. Peter would be livid.

I do find it interesting that even as they seem to be paralleling the sacrifices with Derek healing Cora there is another parallel going on. Scott is following in Peter's footsteps...he's going to die and be resurrected.

They may even follow up on the "proud papa" thing by focusing on fathers in the future especially now that they have brought in Scott's dad. Peter kind of gave birth to the werewolf in Scott, whereas on the other hand you have Scott's natural dad, and then Deaton as his like guide or mentor. I could see Scott being pulled in 3 different directions by each of them...though I doubt he would even acknowledge Peter.

But with your proud papa comment...I find it interesting that it was after Peter learned of Scott becoming a true alpha that he offered to help in the hospital.
