Theo can touch mountain ash but still has to follow the Alpha power stealing rules? Hmm... Im most likely wrong here, though i dont recall Theo specifically stating that he could or had intention to get liam to kill scott and then theo kill liam to get the Alpha power... from what he said to stiles.. he also want liam into his pack ... ergo he wouldnt kill liam if he killed scott to get the alpha power

... hope that makes sense :/ It does makes sense but it contradicts other statements and actions in the show.

For example, Deaton saying that Liam was the only person that could take Scott's powers foreshadowed that that was why Theo wanted Liam to kill Scott. It seemed like the Dread Doctors even tried to artificially take away Scott's powers with Belasko but failed. Scott himself even told Liam that Theo just wanted Liam to kill Scott because that's the only way Theo can become an Alpha (by killing Liam afterwards). Yes, Theo did tell Stiles that he wanted Theo in his pack, but if he didn't want Liam to become an Alpha, why didn't he just kill Scott himself? Pretty sure Theo is stronger than Liam and would have gotten the job done a lot faster, especially since  he'd make sure he finishes the job. And also, why wold he want an Alpha in his pack when he wants to be the Alpha? Just kind of weird. But then again, he thinks he can actually have a nogitsune in his pack and not get backstabbed so he is totally insane.
