And, if that's not enough to scare your testicles back into your stomach, try to remember that two of them combine to form one giant Alpha. I'm sure Erica and Boyd were sweet kids.

Synopsis[]
Allison and Lydia stumble upon a possible clue to finding Boyd and Erica, while a childhood friend of Stiles goes missing.
Plot[]
Stiles' childhood friend, Heather, is attacked during her 17th birthday party and goes missing. Scott, Stiles, Derek and Dr. Deaton help Isaac recover his memories, and it is revealed that he had found Boyd and another female Werewolf being kept in an abandoned bank vault, as well as Erica's dead body in a closet of the bank. When Allison sneaks into the bank, she encounters Marin Morrell there and is forced to hide from the Alphas in a supply closet, discovering Erica's decomposing body, which indicates that she had been dead for some time. Once Derek and Scott break in to save them, Derek recognizes the other female Werewolf to be his little sister Cora, previously thought dead. Stiles and Peter discover that Boyd and Cora have been kept from transforming for the past three months. Wild and bloodthirsty, Boyd and Cora almost kill Derek and Scott until Allison saves them by setting the wolves free.

- Lydia and Allison research the mysterious symbol left on their arms in the form of bruises by the mysterious girl who saved Isaac in Tattoo.
- It is revealed that Cora Hale, Derek's younger sister, managed to survive the Hale fire and got caught by the Alpha Pack as well, and Cora makes her first official appearance in this episode after a brief glimpse of her in Tattoo.

- Allison referenced her mother Victoria's death, which occurred in Party Guessed after she killed herself following Derek accidentally biting her in Raving.
- Derek also mentioned the fact that Victoria was trying to kill Scott when he bit her to Scott when he insisted that Scott tell Allison the truth about it.
