1) Does Paige seem like she's the kind of person to become killer-for-hire?

2) Malia is sixteen years old. I know they're not great at timeline things, but just try that out for a second and figure out how old Paige would have had to have been in order to be Malia's mother. And how much a pedophile that makes Peter.

3) If Paige wasn't actually dead, why would Derek's eyes have changed color? Why would the Nemeton have been empowered by her sacrifice, enough to save a dying druid? I was thinking 'how old would that have to currently make Derek? Early to mid 30, which he definitely does look. Especially if you go back to s1, which in show was only a year ago. I'd agree with that, but our timeline has been (except for the first episode) consistent that the fire was six years from the start of the series (which means Derek was in school then) -- and that's one of the only things our timeline has been consistent about! :P If I recall correctly, the Derek/Paige romance was eight years prior to "Visionary" (less than a year from the pilot episode).

Which gives Paige two years to revive from death (which took at least the better part of a year for Kate to do), have a relationship with Peter, and have a baby and then for the memories of that romance and baby to be removed by Talia. (Presumably from Paige too, or else why isn't she looking for Malia?)

Unless Paige was actually like a senior in high school in Visionary, that also puts Peter in a whole new level of creepy. And still makes Paige that much of a renowned assassin at age 25. (Also, I would argue, we haven't seen the "bad" brought out in anyone bitten be something that wasn't a part of who they were to begin with. The animal inside doesn't change who they are, it just uninhibits them.)

I mean, I'll grant you that the theory is plausible, I'm just saying it's gonna take a lot of explaining.
