See, I disagree with this. They had a better place to try and hide her. They used it to hide from the Chemist. Seems like the Hale vault would've been much better protection. It would be practically intersecting the currents, or a great deal closer to them instead of the locker room, it would been defensible from all sides, and still have escape routes. We know Malia can open the door (though I still question whether you have to be a Hale or if any werewolf can do it) and she was present. She was the first line of defense, remember? Well, after Parrish. There were things down there that potentially could've actually helped even if they just started throwing down jars and hoping something happened. Going to a locker room that any and everyone has broken into in the past seems kind of... Stupid for a base of operations where the only defense is tipping over some lockers which I think they could go through or around anyway, and turning on the shower to try and rust the guys. I think the plan was less about trying to hide her and more about using the school currents to protect her. Also, (IMO) they may have thought they were going to need some room to both fight & quickly escape(as I think the hale vault doors take to long to open & close) if they started to lose.

Then again the writers could have just forgotten. 😎
