- STILES: This is him...

- MALIA: Recognize them?
- STILES: One of them. ("Echo House")

- NOSHIKO: If the Oni can't defeat you, I know someone who will. ("Riddled")
FLASHBACK-- CAMP OAK CREEK, 1943, POST-RIOT[]
- MERRICK: There's an answer, I swear! Come on, just try. "What gets broken without being held?"
- HAYES: I don't care.
- MERRICK: A promise! Get it?
- HAYES: No, I don't. It's stupid. It's not funny. None of this is funny.
- MERRICK: "What has teeth but doesn't bite?"
- HAYES: Will you shut up already?
- MERRICK: Come on, this one's good! "What has teeth but doesn't bite?"
- MERRICK: A comb!
- HAYES: These jokes are stupid.
- MERRICK: They're not jokes, idiot-- they're riddles. My girl back home loves them.
- MERRICK: "What has a neck but no head?"
- HAYES: Your mother.
- MERRICK: A bottle.
- MERRICK: What the hell?
- NOGITSUNE: "What has a neck but no head?"

TITLE CARD & OPENING CREDITS
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL[]
- VOID STILES: Coming in on a Saturday? That's dedication.
- VOID STILES: Where is she hiding them?
- KEN: I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about...
- VOID STILES: Her little knives. Daggers. I know what they are: physical representation of her tails... however the hell that works...
- KEN: Maybe you'd like to do some reading on it? I can direct you to the section on Japanese myth in the library.
- VOID STILES: No... No, I'd like to talk to you.
- VOID STILES: The older the tail, the stronger the Oni... Am I right?
- VOID STILES: I know there's one left. I know it's the strongest.
- KEN: Unfortunately, I don't know what you're referring to...
- VOID STILES: You'll talk...
- VOID STILES: They always talk.
MCCALL HOUSE[]
- KIRA: This looks just like me. This has to be my grandmother.
- SCOTT: You remember, I told you about Malia? She's the last one who saw Stiles at Eichen House. This picture, and this--
- SCOTT: They found it with a body buried in a wall. The same backwards "5" that the Oni put on us was on the wall. It sounds like it all goes back to your family-- your grandmother, your mom...
- SCOTT: What is it?
- KIRA: My dad.
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL[]
- NOSHIKO: Kira, did you bring it?
- KIRA: You going to tell me what "it" is?
- NOSHIKO: Reishi.
- KIRA: [incredulously] You're not seriously giving Dad magic mushrooms???
- NOSHIKO: Are you okay?
- SCOTT: Stiles did this?
- NOSHIKO: [nodding] He wanted the last kaiken.
- NOSHIKO: I've kept this near me ever since your friend disappeared.
- KIRA: Mom, you need to talk to us-- about everything.
- NOSHIKO: Where did you get this?
- KIRA: Is it Grandma?
- NOSHIKO: No... It's me.
FLASHBACK-- CAMP OAK CREEK, 1943, PRE-RIOT[]
- MERRICK: Hayes, a little help here?
- MERRICK: Hayes!
- RHYS: Merrick, what did you say the count was?
- MERRICK: Five. Five crates apples.
- RHYS: ...There's only three left here.
- MERRICK: [impatiently] Okay... four crates apples.
- MERRICK: Hayes, come on!
END FLASHBACK
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL[]
- SCOTT: If that's you, then you'd have to be, like, ninety years old...
- NOSHIKO: Closer to nine hundred.
- KIRA: [overwhelmed] Okay. Sure. Why not?
- KIRA: Dad, how old are you?
- KEN: Forty-three. But, I've been told I look mid-thirties...
- NOSHIKO: The blade shattered the last time it was used.
- KIRA: When was that?
- NOSHIKO: 1943... Against a Nogitsune.
- SCOTT: All this-- it's all happened before, hasn't it?
- NOSHIKO: Yes.
- KEN: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
- KIRA: Where did it come from?
- NOSHIKO: It was an internment camp during World War II... In Oak Creek, not far from here.
- SCOTT: Hold on-- you told Allison and Isaac that there was no internment camp at Oak Creek.
- KEN: Allison's family has a certain history of violence. I didn't know if she could be trusted.
- KEN: There was a camp, yes... But all the records were erased.
- NOSHIKO: They covered it up.
- KEN: When I was a grad student, my passion project-- actually more like an obsession-- was trying to dig up the truth on Oak Creek.
- KEN: It's how I met your mother, Kira.
- KIRA: So, where did the Nogitsune come from?
- NOSHIKO: Isn't it obvious, yet?
- NOSHIKO: It came from me.
FLASHBACK-- CAMP OAK CREEK, 1943, PRE-RIOT[]
- RINKO: Guys, keep your voices down. There's plenty for everyone... But, if the MP's hear, no one gets anything.
- NOSHIKO: Michio...
- RINKO: A baseball, Noshiko? Did you manage to steal any firecrackers? A machine gun, maybe?
- NOSHIKO: [sighing] I can feel your glare on the back of my head, Satomi.
- SATOMI: You take too frequently... And you take too much.
- NOSHIKO: Should I give some back?
- NOSHIKO: I know you get migraines at least once a moon.
- SATOMI: [curtly] I prefer to suffer.
- SATOMI: I know what you think of me, Noshiko. You think I am weak because I follow the rules. You think the rules are for the obedience of fools and cowards.
- SATOMI: The young Fox always knows the rules so she can break them. The older, wiser animal... learns the exceptions to the rules.
- RINKO: Listen, you two-- all we have to do is stay quiet.
- MICHIO'S FATHER: Michio, get back!
- MP: What the hell was that?
- RINKO: The MPs are coming.
- RHYS: Somebody lose something?
- MERRICK: There were supplies stolen off the truck last night. Anybody here got any ideas what happened?
- RHYS: Merrick--
- MERRICK: Just doing my patriotic duty, Corporal.
- RHYS: I want that window fixed. There'll be an inspection in the morning. We better not find anything that shouldn't be here.
- HAYES: [appalled] We're not gonna look now?
- RHYS: Inspection in the morning, Private. This is a relocation center, not a prison.
- MERRICK: You can call it a summer camp, if it makes you feel better...
- MERRICK: Sir.
- SATOMI: Maita mono o karitorimasu. Or, as the Americans say... "You reap what you sow."
END FLASHBACK
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL[]
- NOSHIKO: Kira, I need your help on this. There isn't much time, and this is something that needs to be done in the daylight.
- KIRA: Not until you tell us everything.
- KEN: Tell them, Noshiko-- tell them what they need to know.
- NOSHIKO: Foxes and Wolves tend not to get along, and not just in fables and stories.
- KEN: But allies, however unlikely, should be welcomed-- especially in times of war.
BEACON COUNTY SHERIFF'S STATION[]
- PARRISH: Sorry, but I can't let you walk out with this. It's way above the legal voltage limit.
- ARGENT: I only use it for hunting...
[Derek gives Argent a hilariously exasperated look at this comment, and Argent can't help but roll his eyes in response. Parrish does not seem to be persuaded by his argument either]
- PARRISH: Yeah, well, I'm pretty sure you could use it to jump-start a 747...
- ARGENT: This property belongs to me, and the charges were dropped.
- ARGENT: Although, I'm not exactly sure who's responsible for that.
- STILINSKI: I am.
- STILINSKI: I'll take care of this, Parrish.
- PARRISH: Stilinski, I'm not kidding-- this thing's a few watts from being a lightsaber.
- STILINSKI: I said I'll take care of it.
- STILINSKI: The specialist I saw in LA told me the thing that every doctor says when he's trying to avoid a lawsuit-- "We can't say for sure." And then, I spoke with Melissa.
- STILINSKI: These are brain scans-- my wife's, and Stiles'. I knew they were similar, but those are the same. Exactly the same.
- DEREK: And I'm guessing this isn't possible?
- STILINSKI: Not even remotely.
- ARGENT: So, the trickster is still playing tricks.
- DEREK: But why this trick?
- STILINSKI: When I was in the Army, an officer told me, "If you want to defeat your enemy, you don't take away their courage-- you take away their hope."
- ARGENT: You don't look like a man who gives up hope easily.
- STILINSKI: But Stiles might.
- STILINSKI: If this thing inside him... if it's using his mother's disease as some sort of psychological trick, then this isn't just a fight for his body. It's also a fight for his mind. Right?
- ARGENT: You know, he's left people severely injured.
- DEREK: ...And others severely dead.
- STILINSKI: That's why I need the two of you.
- STILINSKI: I need people who are experienced in this kind of thing. I need you to help me stop him.
- ARGENT: And by stop him, you mean trap him.
FLASHBACK-- CAMP OAK CREEK, 1943, PRE-RIOT[]
- NOSHIKO: Why do I like you when you're acting tough?
- RHYS: Maybe because you want me to be a fighter.
- NOSHIKO: No, I like my handsome medic.
- RHYS: Don't like him too much. Your handsome medic is getting worried-- I think you need to ease up on all the stuff you're taking off the truck, Noshiko. Especially medical supplies. People are starting to notice.
- NOSHIKO: So what if they notice?
- RHYS: Tsukidete iru kui ga uta remasu.
- NOSHIKO: You're quoting Japanese proverbs to me?
- RHYS: "The stake that sticks out gets hammered down." It's a good proverb!
- RHYS: You know they're gonna come in and just confiscate everything, right? They'll punish everyone and get them to turn you in. That's how they do it in the Army.
- NOSHIKO: Okay, I get it. And, if missing a few bottles of aspirin is that bad, I'll bring them back.
- RHYS: Let me help! I can get stuff, too. I can be pretty sly, myself...
- NOSHIKO: Oh, my God! Is that chocolate?
- RHYS: I thought you liked it when I'm tough?
- NOSHIKO: I like chocolate, more.
END FLASHBACK
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL[]
- KIRA: [irritably] Okay, stop. Just stop! We don't want to hear your Casablanca story-- we wanna know how to save Stiles!
- NOSHIKO: I'm trying to tell you--
- SCOTT: You're trying to stall. When the sun goes down, the Oni are gonna come after him again, aren't they?
- NOSHIKO: Your friend's gone, Scott.
- SCOTT: I don't think you know that for sure.
- SCOTT: You brought the Oni-- can you call them off?
- KIRA: It's not his fault.
- NOSHIKO: Stiles may be your best friend... He might be like a brother to you... But he is Nogitsune now. He is void.
- SCOTT: Can you call them off?
- NOSHIKO: When you hear the rest of the story, you won't want me to.
ARGENT APARTMENT[]
- ALLISON: This is everything non-lethal I could find...
- ARGENT: Take all of it.
- STILINSKI: What's the plan, here?
- ARGENT: Our best shot right now is for Derek to try to pick up Stiles' scent at Eichen House-- especially if he went through something stressful there.
- STILINSKI: Should all four of us be going to the same place?
- ARGENT: Where else has Stiles been showing up?
- ALLISON: School... the hospital...
- DEREK: Okay, hold on-- we did this already. He disappeared, we started looking for him... then walked right into a trap at the hospital.
- ARGENT: ...He's getting us to repeat the same moves.
- ALLISON: So, what do we do? Wait for him to come to us?
- DEREK: We can't. Not if the Oni find him when the sun goes down.
- STILINSKI: Scott's working on that right now with Kira.
- ARGENT: That's the problem-- we're all trying to outfox the Fox.
- STILINSKI: Listen... I'll understand if anyone wants to back out.
- DEREK: [scoffing] I won't be the first Wolf to run from a Fox.
- ARGENT: Apparently, I'm carrying a lightsaber...
- ALLISON: Dad, you and Derek hit Eichen House. Sheriff, it's you and me in the hospital. We all meet in the school.
- DEREK: ...Making sure you have a few lethal options, just in case?
- ARGENT: I like to prepare for the worst.
FLASHBACK-- CAMP OAK CREEK, 1943, PRE-RIOT[]
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] Rhys and I found ways to see each other. Sometimes at the barracks... sometimes in the bunkers where they parked military vehicles. He was being transferred to North Africa in a few weeks. I was teaching him some French...
- RHYS: [struggling] Coup de footuh. Coup de foodray--
- NOSHIKO: Foudre. It's an "ah" sound.
- RHYS: [slowly] Coup de foudre.
- NOSHIKO: Not bad! It's an idiom... But the literal translation is "bolt of lightning."
- RHYS: [smiling] Embrasse-moi.
- NOSHIKO: I don't remember teaching you that...
- RHYS: That one's self-taught. I figured it might come in handy. So, embrasse-moi. Kiss me.
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] We watched Merrick and Hayes talking with the camp doctor. They were whispering, talking quickly...
END FLASHBACK
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL[]
- KEN: Noshiko...
- KIRA: Mom, what are you doing?
- KIRA: How did you do that?
- NOSHIKO: It's one of our talents-- something you'll learn, Kira. You should've noticed by now that you never get sick. Ever. You'll never experience something as simple as a common cold. Something as bad as the flu. Or something like...
FLASHBACK-- CAMP OAK CREEK, 1943, PRE-RIOT[]
- DR. LISTON: Pneumonia. Same as the others.
- NOSHIKO: Rinko...
- RINKO: I'm okay. It's not that bad.
- RHYS: Everyone's coming down with pneumonia, and we are all out of M&B.
- NOSHIKO: M&B?
- RHYS: May and Baker Pharmaceuticals. It's sulfadiazine.
- NOSHIKO: I saw those boxes...
- RHYS: What do you mean, boxes? We only got one.
- NOSHIKO: There were three. I know I took a bunch of stuff off that truck, but I didn't take any M&B.
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] Rhys checked his log... But, we already knew what was happening. Dr. Liston was using Merrick and Hayes to sell medicine on the black market.
- MICHIO'S FATHER: Michio? Michio? Michio!
- RINKO: Listen. Listen!
- RINKO: All we have to do is go to the administration and issue a formal complaint.
- MICHIO'S FATHER: You want to talk to them? Let's talk to them-- let's tell them how one of their doctors has been stealing medication and selling it on the black market!
- RINKO: They'll listen. They have to.
- MICHIO'S FATHER: I'm sure they will. They'll nod their heads with their condescending smiles. They'll say, "A new shipment is on its way." "Any day now!" While today... Today, my son is dead.
- RINKO: I know how you feel--
- MICHIO'S FATHER: [interrupting] No, Rinko-- I know how you feel. You feel sick. I'm going to bury you next to Michio.
- SATOMI: You want to know what I think? You won't even get a condescending smile. They won't listen to us. Why should they?
- MICHIO'S FATHER: I have a way to make them listen.
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] I had realized the mistake I had made by speaking too soon. I wasn't helping anyone-- I was inciting a riot.
- RHYS: Stop! Stop!
- RHYS: Put your guns away! Put 'em away!
- INTERNEE: We want the doctor!
- DR. LISTON: These people, if they manage to drag me out of this car, do you know what's going to happen?
- DR. LISTON: They are going to put a noose around my neck! And maybe they'll be polite enough to ask me if I have any last words. You know what those last words are gonna be? "I had help."
- DR. LISTON: So, maybe we throw you out there now and provide a little distraction, huh?
- DR. LISTON: They've got a few pipes, some rocks and sticks... You've got guns. Now, go out there and shoot something!
- DR. LISTON: Do it!
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] I yelled for them to stop. But so many people were sick... and so many were dying...
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] I'd never seen anger like that. It was a living, breathing thing.
- MERRICK: Get back! Back!
- MERRICK: Get back! Get back!
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] Now I knew why Satomi was always trying to keep quiet. Why she got migraines once a month, and why she was always at the game of Go-- it kept her calm.
END FLASHBACK
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL[]
- SCOTT: [stunned] She was bitten.
- NOSHIKO: Bitten Werewolves have a harder time suppressing their anger. One unexpected flare-up, and they could lose all control.
FLASHBACK-- CAMP OAK CREEK, 1943, MID-RIOT[]
- RHYS: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
END FLASHBACK
BEACON HILLS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL[]
- STILINSKI: [sighing] You know what? I don't know how you guys do it. You're all so strong. You're fearless. Hell, you even manage to keep your grades up...
- ALLISON: [glumly] I am... failing Econ...
- STILINSKI: [sighing] Is that Coach's class?
- STILINSKI: Well, I'll have a talk with him.
- STILINSKI: Hey, you okay?
- ALLISON: [tearfully] I'm not... fearless... I'm terri-terrified. I'm always terrified. I... I act like I know what I'm doing, but I don't. I don't know if Isaac is dying right now... I don't know if I made a mistake with Scott... I don't know what my dad is thinking... I don't know if we should trust Derek... I don't know...
- ALLISON: I don't know anything...
- STILINSKI: You know what's funny?
- STILINSKI: You sound just like a cop.
- STILINSKI: Hey... You're gonna be okay.
- ALLISON: Okay.
- ALLISON: What's that?
- STILINSKI: Someone's breaking into my house...
- STILINSKI: After Stiles started sleepwalking, I had some safety precautions put in-- motion sensors, cameras...
- ALLISON: Is that his room?
FLASHBACK-- CAMP OAK CREEK, 1943, MID-RIOT[]
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] The gunfire nearly killed me. I don't know how many bullets made their way into my body, but I fought every one of them...
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] It left my body so weak, my heartbeat so slow, it appeared as though I was dead... But, even then... I was still better off than Rhys...
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] His screams could be heard throughout Eichen House... Echoing through every room, every hallway... He died in agony... The doctor, it seems, had also sold the morphine...
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] Merrick and Hayes were given the task of getting rid of all the bodies, both American and Japanese-American. They were transferring Dr. Liston out as well, stationing him somewhere else.
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] They were covering it up-- the doctor, Merrick, Hayes, and all of the others. They were gonna get away with murder!
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] By chance, I guess, Rhys' body had been put next to mine... I wanted the soldiers and the administration of the camp to be punished for their crimes... But, I knew the clock was ticking. I was going to lose my chance. They were going to burn me with the others. I couldn't fight back with my body weakened and still healing. I could barely move. I was going to die.
- NOSHIKO: [voiceover] With time slipping through my fingers, I knew I was making a terrible decision... But, I could not die knowing that they would get away... So, I called out to our ancestors for kitsune-tsuki, possession by a Fox spirit... For a powerful Nogitsune, one that feeds off chaos, strife, and pain, to take control of my weakened body, imbue it with power and use it as a weapon.
END FLASHBACK
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL[]
- NOSHIKO: But, calling on a trickster is a dangerous thing... They can have a very dark sense of humor... Because, while the Nogitsune did come to possession someone...

- NOSHIKO: Coup de foudre. The literal translation is "a bolt of lightning." In French, it can also mean, "love at first sight."
- NOSHIKO: But, a bolt of lightning happens to be exactly what we need right now.
- KIRA: For what?
- NOSHIKO: Excising the Nogitsune from Rhys' body shattered the katana... But you can put it back together
- KIRA: Why don't you just do it yourself?
- NOSHIKO: Because I'm not a Thunder Kitsune.
- NOSHIKO: Do you trust me?
- KIRA: I just found out you're nine hundred years old-- I don't think I'm ever gonna trust you again.
- NOSHIKO: Trust me on this.
STILINSKI HOUSE[]
- ARGENT: What is all this? What are these sticky notes for?
- STILINSKI: This is what Stiles used to try and explain to me about... all of you.
- ALLISON: Well, maybe it's a message from Stiles-- the real Stiles.
- DEREK: Do you think there's any reason my name's on the king?
- STILINSKI: Well, you're heavily guarded... Though, I guess the alarming detail is that you're one move from being in checkmate.
- ARGENT: It's not a message from Stiles-- it's a threat from the Nogitsune.
- ALLISON: He's at the loft. That's what he's trying to tell us. And he wants us to come there.
- DEREK: Night's falling...
- ARGENT: This couldn't sound any more like a trap.
- STILINSKI: I don't think it is...
- ARGENT: I think your opinion might be slightly biased, Sheriff...
- STILINSKI: Hear me out! What we're dealing with here is basically someone who lacks motive-- no rhyme or reason, right?
- ARGENT: Meaning what?
- STILINSKI: Our enemy is not a killer... It's a trickster. The killing is just a by-product.
- DEREK: If you're trying to say it won't kill us, I'm not feeling too confident about that...
- STILINSKI: It won't. It wants irony. It wants to play a trick-- it wants a joke. All we need to do is come up with a new punchline.
- ARGENT: The sun is setting, Sheriff... What do you have in mind?
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL[]
- NOSHIKO: Go ahead. It's yours now.
- KIRA: What if I don't want it?
- NOSHIKO: [grimly] You need it.
- NOSHIKO: You see? It gives you balance.
- NOSHIKO: My power is yours now, Kira. If the Oni cannot stop Stiles, you have to, the same as I did...
- NOSHIKO: And maybe seek out a wolf to help you...
- SCOTT: You didn't tell us anything.
- NOSHIKO: You want to save Stiles? Kill him.
- SCOTT: You agree with this?
- KEN: Sometimes, history does repeat itself, Scott.
- SCOTT: Only if you don't learn!
- KEN: But sometimes, even then, fate conspires against you.
- SCOTT: [determined] Theres a way to save him. There has to be.
- NOSHIKO: Kira...
- NOSHIKO: I'll take it somewhere safe.
- KEN: That's not what I'm worried about--
- KEN: History has not done well with making children into killers.
- NOSHIKO: These children played their part in it long before we came back to Beacon Hills.
