Okay soooo much to unpack already.
First of all, these episodes are getting scarier and scarier by the minute, and yes, I do have all of my lights on thank you very much.
Second of all, OMG the way Scott looked at his mom in that moment when she saved Danny...the admiration on that boy's face, OMG. Scott and Melissa seriously have one of the best parent-child relationships I have ever seen (Stiles and Noah are right up there too <3), and that moment just...SENT me. The way she was immediately willing to do anything she had to to save him not just because she's awesome, but because she knew how much he meant to Scott, and the way Scott just looked at her like she was the coolest person on the planet...AHHH that was so good and so sweet!
Then you add to that him and Isaac "watching over her" in case she was the third sacrifice. I mean, that scene is so sweet for so many reasons--the boys being worried about her, BOTH of them being there, Melissa calling them "boys"--but also SO freaking funny--"You were on watch last." "No you were on watch last." "I may have been on watch last."....AHHH I LOVE THIS LITTLE FAMILY SO MUCH!!!
Third of all, BRO I CANNOT BELIEVE that I didn't even THINK about Deaton. Thank GOD he has Scott in his corner, or he would probably die, but no, he'll be fine (and I'm sure of it!), because he DID call Scott, and he DID have time to warn him, and now Scott and Stiles and probably Isaac and whoever else joins the group are all gonna go save him and maybe actually get some answers (HOPEFULLY get some answers), so it'll be FINE. Okay? He'll be FINE!
The thing this definitely proves, however, is that the Darach knows that Scott and pack (yes, I said Scott and pack--sue me) are onto it, because it's officially endangering people that matter to Scott. It followed its code by killing the two hospital doctors that night, but it attempted to deal a blow to Scott in the process by putting Danny in danger and then killing all the people that would be able to save him--and thank god for Melissa in that moment.
That said, even though the boys fell asleep, Melissa would be too hard to take or hurt, because both Scott and Isaac were RIGHT there, so it makes sense that it didn't go after Melissa, and instead went after Deaton, who's pretty much like a father figure to Scott at this point--can't take one parent, gotta take the other.
My point in all of this is, this is bad, and I hope Scott and pack figure it out soon so that we don't lose the entire pack (and then some) to this stupid evil entity who really wants to specifically hurt Scott at this point.
Season 3, Episode 7. Let's keep going.
(I definitely saw a clip of this somewhere and I don't think I'm to this episode yet, but this mother and son gif is too adorable not to put on here. I love them so much. <3)
