People like to act like Teen Wolf is all "black and white" with "good and evil" themes.
But it's actually kind of a dingy gray color with just a few black and white spots.
Season two is probably the best example of this.
You literally had multiple villains all with different motivations and end-goals,
all operating at the same time.
Victoria: Are you aware there's been an alarming drop in academic achievement and test scores
over the past few semesters.
Principal: Excuse me?
Victoria: It's led the parents of Beacon Hills to the unfortunate conclusion that you may
no longer be suited to the position of school principal.
Principal: You can't fire me.
Victoria: True, but we can torture you.
Victoria Argent, her motivation was always to protect Allison from all the things.
Victoria: Remember, so long as you stay strong, we won't have to kill a 16 year old boy.
But her morals were flexible when it came to supernaturals.
Scott: What are you doing?
Victoria: Isn't it obvious?
I'm killing you.
Matt: What are you looking at?
Matt Daehler, a big old baby [ __ ] boy who couldn't get over a single dunking and
had to kill everyone involved.
Matt: I yell that I can't swim but nobody listens.
I go under and I swallow water and no one cares.
I'm dying and they're laughing.
Gerard: As you can see Scott there's been some interesting developments lately.
I think we should catch up.
Gerard Argent, talk about corrupt, he betrayed his own lifelong hatred for the supernatural
world just to save his own skin.
Gerard: You want easy? Change your last name.
Otherwise, go up there and help your wife die with dignity.
Your mother wrote this note.
I don't know how I could sit until someone paid for her death.
Allison - her heel turn came late in the season but boy when she went full throttle into evil,
it was without hesitation.
Erica: No, run!
Go!
And the final villain was actually the first and
the worst.
Derek: What if I told you that all of this could go away, the side effects, the symptoms, all of it.
Starting off the season manipulating and destroying lives.
Derek: She failed the test.
Scott: Lydia is different. Derek: I know.
At night she turns into a homicidal walking snake.
Scott: I'm not going to let you kill her.
Derek: Who said I was gonna do it.
Derek Hale justified his bad behavior as recruiting in order to combat some unseen threat, but
when you break down his behavior he took vulnerable people and used them for his own reasons and
eventually got two of them killed.
