Before Allison could do anything, she was suddenly back in her seat and Peter was back in his, all his injuries now healed perfectly. He wasn't the only one though. Rafael was also now fully healed and was tapping his nose to see if it still hurt. Suddenly the screen went white and words started to show up on it like someone was typing in on their laptop. "Okay we all had our fun. No more hitting each other. Understood?" it read and then the screen went black. Allison gave Peter a dirty look and then looked at the screen as the episode began.

Kira wakes up in the same bone-filled cell where we last saw her. Now though, the cell door is open. As she makes her way down the dirty stone corridor she notes a Berserker standing guard at the other end. Turning to retreat, another Berserker attacks her. She notices the double bands of black tattoo on his arm and knows that the Berserker is Scott. She tries to talk to him but he continues to beat her mercilessly until Kate calls him off.

With every hit, Scott flinched and his hands curled up into fists. Melissa put a hand on her son's head and ruffled his hair, "That's not you. That bitch Kate is controlling you and it all her fault" she said soothingly. Scott uncurled his fists but he still felt sick from seeing his future self, beat someone innocent.

Kate explains that after escaping The Calavera Family she didn't know where to go but kept feeling a pull from Tezcatlipoca. She explains that his name means "smoking mirror" and the temple under La Iglesia was known as "the temple of the smoking mirror."

"Who comes up with these names? That sounds like someone built a temple for some guy named mirror who smoked heavily" Stiles joked to try and lift the tension. "Shut it Stiles" Laura growled and that was all he needed to know that it didn't work.

Kate points out that the temple is partially made of obsidian. Kate says the Berserkers were waiting for her when she arrived at the temple and helped her survive. She says she didn't know why they were helping her until recently when someone with whom she was working explained it to her.

Everyone turned to glare at the wolf who was playing with the neck of his shirt.

She learned from this unnamed ally that she could control the berserkers and make new berserkers. Kate says they call her La Loba, The Bone Woman. She says they let Kira out to test Scott's loyalty as a Berserker. She complains that Scott's never had to kill anyone despite all he's been through. She thinks it's time to change that. Scott takes out a dagger of bone and stabs Kira.

Scott went stiff and wide eyed as he looked at the screen. Melissa just rubbed his back soothingly, lost on how she could comfort her son who may or may not have killed his future girlfriend.

Sheriff Stilinski forbids Stiles to go after Scott and Kira in Mexico. The sheriff wants to call law enforcement in Mexico to help.

"And tell them what? That some guys dressed in bones and a cat lady kidnapped a kid and shipped him over the border?" Stiles asked in surprise. Noah opened his mouth to speak but Rafael cut in, "I agree with your son there Noah. You won't get any help unless you can prove that something like this has happened. And even if you did, it would be too late" he said. Noah sighed and leaned back in his seat.

Stiles says there is no time and declares that he is going. The sheriff threatens to lock Stiles up but his son says he will still find a way to go. He asks Stiles for more time saying he will do all he can through channels and if it doesn't work he and Stiles will both go to Mexico. In the loft with a table full of guns, Derek feels helpless. Braeden points out that she is human and she's not helpless. Derek confesses he doesn't expect to live through rescuing Scott. Braeden says she's not okay with that and they kiss. Derek says if he can save Scott and Kira he's willing to die.
