“The firefly is an unassuming insect in the daytime. If you didn’t know what it was, you’d think it was nothing special. But at night, the firefly glows with its own light source. The darkness brings out its most beautiful gift. That’s an extraordinary talent for an ordinary-looking creature, isn’t it?” - Lisa KleypasOK, first off, let the above quote sink in and realize how perfect of a metaphor that is for a werewolf. You’re welcome, now moving on… This week’s installment of Teen Wolf, episode 3x03: Fireflies was written by new comer Lucas Sussman and directed by Teen Wolf veteran Tim Andrews. Well, this season’s tagline ‘This might hurt’ has finally fully resonated with me, poor Stiles, poor Derek and poor Allison. Really, just poor Beacon Hills in general. The RecapWe open this week episode with a shot of the night sky, complete with a full moon as some fireflies buzz around the camera pans down to reveal a boy catching fireflies. His sister tells him not to be a serial in training and either poke holes in the lid or let it go. Then the boy notices something, someone watching him and runs and relays the massage to his sister. They run holding hands into a shed. Boyd stalks the outside of the shed and Scott peeks in as Boyd lift the shed much to the two little ones’ dismay. Just as Boyd is about to tear the children to shreds the mason jar of fireflies is unleashed and distracts him long enough for the children to escape. Derek is perturbed that Scott lost the trail of Boyd and Cora. Scott tells them that they should regroup and stick together. After he hangs up the phone it revealed that Scott was the one that saved the children from Boyd. Next we see Lydia waking up with a headache presumably only to discover her bottle of ibuprofen is empty. She yells to her mother (but in actuality it’s an empty house) that she’s headed out to the store and realizes she is alone. She stares out of her window at the full moon as she says the word lunatic… What no etymology lesson on that word? Oh, wait we’ve already got that covered in a previous season. Moving over to when Derek stops at a track and Scott wonders if it’s ‘them’. It seems that Boyd and Cora have decided to stick together as well. Scott wants to know if that makes it easier or harder. Derek doesn’t know (as usual). Scott goes on to tell Derek how he saw Boyd try to tear the two kids from the opening scene apart. In another inquiry, Scott asks if Boyd and Cora are going to do that to everyone they find. The answer is ‘pretty much’. After that we see pulling up to a place that doesn’t look anything like a store. Lydia looks up from her texting to discover a dead body floating in the pool, only it’s a dummy. But don’t worry, there is an actual dead body behind her and when she discovers it she lets out her usual death metal scream. Then we see a brooding Allison sitting in her car in the exact spot where she and Scott use to secretly meet as she recalls what Scott told her about her mother trying to kill him. I could care less about their sappy, overly dramatic moment because in walks Derek holding Erica’s dead lifeless body. Yep, we have confirmation she is actually dead. Cut to present time and the score kicks in to let you know she’s about to let out her angst in an angry fashion. She reaches in her glove compartment box to reveal her weapon of choice and Allison is ready to rock.Now on to a girl in the woods, in a tent, lighting candles to set the mood. That is interrupted by another girl’s ranting about a big snake that is coming from outside of the tent. The girl outside of the tent decides jumps over the snake and into the tent. The girls kiss but nerves stop the moment and then a bug clings to the outside of the tent and really ruins the moment. It gets swatted away. But as they get closer and more intimate bugs swarm the tent, inside and out and get all over the girl named Emily. Emily freaks out and flees the tent. She falls down and appears to be swallo
