Welcome to Wolf Watch.
I'm your host, Jill Wagner,
and I'm still trying to recover
from what happened in
tonight's episode of Teen Wolf.
Allison is dead!
But rather than mourn her,
we're going to celebrate her.
And I have two great
guests here to help me out.
First, it's Allison's father.
Please welcome Argent himself, J.
R.
Bourne.
[Cheers and applause]
And we also have the writer, director,
and co-executive producer of Teen Wolf,
Christian Taylor.
[Cheers and applause]
Okay, guys, let's get right into this.
Um, Christian, the first
question is for you.
Oh.
How could you?
I mean, I think you want
to keep the show dangerous,
so there was always that element of, like,
we've killed other characters before
- Mm-hmm.
- And it just keeps us
excited to watch who will be next.
Okay.
And so we then talked about
how we would do it in a really heroic
and sort of consciously making it
so that it would celebrate her character.
So, J.
R.
, when did you
learn she was getting killed?
It was gosh, it was shortly before.
We didn't have a big lead-up, you know,
knowing that this was gonna happen.
So it was a shock.
Um, it was done so
beautifully and respectfully
- Mm-hmm.
- And, uh
I mean, your character
has had so much loss.
You lost your sister.
You lost your wife.
- Now you lost your daughter.
- Mm-hmm.
I mean, is he how's he gonna take this?
I can only imagine
it is going to be another
massive hurdle for him.
I I don't know if they're
gonna have him, you know,
throw himself back into,
you know, the hunting aspect,
because Argent's always sort of
I think that's been one of his struggles,
is the balance between
the two worlds, you know?
Right, right.
Okay, well, um, Christian,
uh, let's talk about
when Allison dies.
Obviously, she dies in Scott's arms,
and, um, she says to him that,
"you were my first and only love.
"
Mm-hmm.
Why does it take her dying
to finally admit that?
Well, I think I think dying is probably
one of the most epic moments
that you have in your life,
and she probably I think
you realize in those moments,
- you better say what you feel.
- Mm-hmm.
And I think also you realize,
I think, if you're lucky
to have a first love that means something,
you remember it forever.
- Mm-hmm.
- And they say your life
- flashes before you.
- Mm-hmm.
- You have moments, yeah.
- Yeah.
So your character, Argent,
teaches Allison so much
during the series, um
What do you think is
the most important lesson
that you taught your daughter
throughout the series?
Clearly not to watch her back.
[Laughter] Ohh!
- Clearly clearly clearly
- You're putting this
- on me now?
- Clearly not that.
I think she I mean,
really, not the greatest
Putting it on me.
What a horrible thing to say.
[Laughter] Um
You know, in alignment with the code,
I think, it I taught her not
to judge a book by its cover,
so I know what it is
that we are meant to do
and what our family was,
you know, prepped to do
our entire lives.
I love it when she made
the sort of decision
that we protect those who
cannot protect themselves.
- Right.
- And I and I would hope
that that came a little bit
from Argent's guidance as well.
Well said.
Well, obviously, fans are heartbroken
that Allison has been killed,
but they're not the only
ones getting emotional.
We asked our Teen Wolf family
to share their thoughts,
and here's what they had to say.
My first reaction when I found out
that she was gonna die was was shock.
I couldn't I couldn't believe it.
I mean, this is it's
Crystal.
Crystal can't go.
Crystal's part of the family.
When I read it,
I was like, I took a moment.
I was like Wow.
I'm not gonna tell you I cried or anything,
but it was it sucked.
Oh, my gosh, when she first told us,
I thought she was joking.
And I was like, "no way.
No way.
"
This no way.
Like, no way.
"
My reaction when I heard
that Allison Argent was
being killed off the show
was, like, how is the show gonna continue?
It's so weird.
She's a huge part of the show.
Always has been since the beginning.
And we have yet to film
an episode without her,
so, you know, it's gonna be really bizarre
and weird and sad.
We had a lot of fun moments
and we had sad moments.
And we fought like family
and we sort of went through
it all over the three years.
It's not something I thought we'd ever do.
I always thought Allison
would survive the series life
of Teen Wolf.
I'm proud of the character,
because I think she's
been a great character
to see grow and change on the show.
We made her a villain in season two.
We redeemed her in season three.
So it's with a little
bit of sadness and regret
that we say good-bye to her.
I'll miss most just getting
to spend time with Crystal.
Um, she's such an easy person to be around,
and she's so kind and she's so generous.
One of our favorite things to do
even from, like, the
from the very beginning
we would always all go bowling.
So, uh, it was just it was always fun.
It would be, you know,
Posey and I and Dylan
and Crystal and Holland,
and we just we had so much fun.
It really was from day
one kind of like a family.
Crystal and I would have these
great little off-set moments
when we would talk about
gluten-free food and vegan diets
and what we're doing to keep healthy.
I'm really sad just on a personal level,
'cause I love Crystal Reed so much,
and she's such an amazing actress
and such a sweet girl,
and she's definitely gonna be missed.
But I still have hope,
because it's Teen Wolf,
and everybody comes back.
[Bittersweet music]
[Applause] [Groaning sadly]
[Applause]
What did you guys think of our
little tape we put together?
That was heartbreaking.
Made it very real.
We do have a slogan in
the writers' room, though.
What is it?
Nobody really dies on Teen Wolf.
- [Gasps] So there's hope.
- [Audience murmurs]
- But who knows?
- All right.
All right.
Well, on that note, we have
to take our first break,
but when we get back,
we'll dive deeper into tonight's episode,
and you don't want to
miss an exclusive scene
from next week's Teen Wolf.
So stick around.
[Melancholy guitar music]
[Dramatic music]
Welcome back to Wolf Watch.
I'm Jill Wagner, joined by my guests
J.
R.
Bourne and Christian Taylor.
[Whooping, applause]
Now, Allison's death was
definitely the key moment
in tonight's Teen Wolf,
but let's talk about, um, Stiles,
who is now in control of the oni.
I want to know what you guys think
he plans on doing with them.
Well, I know you know what
he plans on doing with them.
Well, he needs an army,
so he's gonna use his
army to his nefarious deeds
and, you know, objectives.
He's not gonna do anything good.
- We know that.
- We know that.
I mean, there's nothing
good he's gonna do with them.
It's all bad.
- Do I die?
- [Laughter]
I it's we haven't
shot that scene yet.
Ohh, good lord.
Yeah, we'll see.
Okay, while looking for Lydia,
Isaac and Allison speak about when they
- Yeah.
- You know.
- Yes, yes.
- [Audience whooping]
Uh, so what is this gonna mean for Isaac?
How do you think he's
gonna react to her death?
I I mean, he's gonna be devastated.
And he
- he really loved her.
- He really loved her.
And she genuinely loved him as well.
It was a different kind of love.
So I think he's gonna be devastated.
Yeah.
Okay, turns out
there's another banshee in Beacon Hills,
- Meredith.
- Mm-hmm.
First of all, do banshees
do they hang out in, like, packs
or are they loners? I mean
Well, I don't want to give anything away,
but she will return for season four.
- Mmm
- Whether that
You just gave something away.
Thank you! We'll take it.
[Laughter] Um
I want to talk a little
bit more about Lydia.
- Mm-hmm.
- I want to know
who she's supposed to hang out with now.
Her best friend just got killed.
You know, the great thing
about what Jeff's getting us to do is
that she's part of the pack now.
Mm-hmm.
I love Lydia's character
because she's evolving and
maturing every season
Mm-hmm.
As all our characters are,
but she's really owning her power.
She's becoming a woman.
You know, she's she's her own superhero.
Mm.
Okay, so in this episode,
Scott finally learns why his dad left.
- Mm.
- Right.
How is this gonna impact
their relationship?
I think it what it does,
'cause I think Scott was always reacting
from a very emotional
level with his father,
so now it's sort of, the
father has come clean.
It sort of levels the playing field
so these two people
can build a relationship
that's actually out of love
and actually try and have
a father/son relationship,
which I think is gonna be
a great thing to explore
in the upcoming season.
- Right.
- Yeah.
All right, well, it's time
to check out the Wolf Stats
from tonight's episode.
So we were low on romance
with no hookups.
Wah-wah.
And, sorry, ladies.
No shirtless guys, either.
But we did have one huge fight
with Allison, Isaac, and
Kira taking on the oni.
Plus the heartbreaking death of Allison.
And for our bonus stat,
the number of characters
who have had Deaton's fingers
in their mouth went from zero to two.
That's gross, Deaton.
Uh, now let's see our totals
for this season so far.
[Upbeat dance music]
Okay, next week is the
season finale of Teen Wolf.
- Audience: Aw!
- I know.
I can't believe it's
already coming to an end.
But it promises to be the most
exciting episode of the year.
And let's take a look at an
exclusive scene right now.
[Suspenseful music]
[Vehicle doors creaking]
Scott, hold on.
I know what you're all thinking.
And if this works, it might kill me too.
But even if it does,
you just you have to go through with it.
Stick with the plan, okay?
The plan is to save you.
That's the plan I'm going with.
Wow.
[Cheers and applause]
Yes, I cannot wait for next Monday.
And we have to take another break,
but when we return,
we'll look back
on all that Allison went
through over the years.
Stay tuned.
[Both laughing] [Dramatic music]
[Whooping, applause]
- [Dramatic music]
- We're back with Wolf Watch.
I'm Jill Wagner, with
our guests J.
R.
Bourne
- and Christian Taylor.
- [Cheers and applause]
Now, Allison may be gone,
but she certainly won't be forgotten.
And we caught up with Crystal Reed
after she shot her final scene,
and here's what she had to say.
I knew that one of episode toward the end
was gonna be my last episode.
And then I read it, and
it made me really sad.
But it wasn't until it got
to when my dad comes up,
and it says, "and there's Allison," period.
"Gone," period,
was when it really, really hit me
that, uh, I'm never coming back.
I love Allison so much,
and I think, ultimately, I'm sad
because it's also a part of me
that I have to say good-bye to
and a big part of, um,
me growing into a woman.
I feel like I was
I'm grieving someone
You know?
I can't make you wait for me.
I'm not going to do that.
You don't have to,
because I know we're gonna be together.
There's no such thing as fate.
There's no such thing as werewolves.
She's a big part of me,
and I really, really adore her,
so I feel like I I
felt such a sense of loss.
[Camera shutter clicking]
I feel really grateful,
because it was the best first job
I could've ever asked for,
and I met so many great people for it,
so I'm grateful and sad and, uh, hopeful.
[Gasps]
Oh, my God! Oh, my God, Lydia.
I'm gonna miss the
people, I think, the most.
[Laughs]
Our crew is really, really incredible,
and I feel like I've missed
the experience of them
for such a long time
because I was wrapped up
in what I thought an actress should be like
and just just, like, you know,
prepared and professional,
all these things,
and I really didn't get
to experience the crew
until I knew I was leaving.
They're such incredible people.
And it really does take a village
to make such an incredible thing,
and so I think I'm gonna miss
the cast and the crew the most.
I love them.
Allison!
[Air whooshing]
We're going to have a new code.
We protect those
who cannot protect themselves.
I don't know what's next for me,
which is why I'm also feeling fear
[Laughs]
And anxiety, but, um,
I just want to keep telling great stories
and being happy and having fun.
[Cheers and applause]
What do you guys think, seeing that?
- It's very moving.
- Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Tell me, do you guys have
a favorite Allison or Crystal moment
from the past three years?
- Ooh.
- Wow.
Mine would definitely
have to be in first season,
'cause I remember, uh,
the goose bumps I got
in the moment, uh,
and it was when she was
just seeing him turn,
and she comes stumbling out of the bus,
and before she drops,
uh, Argent catches her,
and she looks up,
and the look in her eye was just kind of
she did that beautifully.
Yeah.
Christian, what about you?
I liked some of her stuff with Gerard.
- Yeah?
- Mm-hmm.
'Cause she was sort of
turning a little bad then,
and then she sort of,
like a moth to the flame,
she got burned and then she backed away
and redeemed herself.
So I, uh I liked that
little part of the journey.
Absolutely.
All right, moving on.
Tyler Posey has been doing an amazing job
as our Wolf Watch correspondent.
And today, he's also acting as a detective,
and we've asked him to uncover
ten facts about Allison Argent
that most fans would not know.
So let's find out what he learned.
Hey, I'm Tyler Posey, aka Scott McCall,
and tonight, I wanted to do something
a little bit different and special
to honor my friend Crystal
Reed, aka Allison Argent.
I put together a list of things
that I've learned about her over the years
that may surprise you, the fans.
Here are the top ten
things you did not know
about Allison Argent.
Number ten:
- Instead of horsehair
- [horse neighs]
Allison strings her bow
with the last remaining hair of a unicorn.
Ding!
[Sputtering] What?
Number nine:
Allison doesn't have followers on Twitter.
[Distant cheering] She has fanatics.
Number eight: When Allison goes
through the airport security,
the TSA agents take off their shoes
and their shirts.
[Laughs]
Number seven:
Swag is Justin Bieber's
nickname for Allison.
That's why he says it so much.
Number six:
When Allison texts "lol" on the phone,
the phone literally laughs out loud.
Number five:
Allison doesn't own an umbrella.
Rain knows better than to fall on her head.
Number four:
Allison has only played spin
the bottle once in her life,
and that bottle is still spinning.
Number three: Allison was
the true inspiration for Taylor swift's
"I knew you were trouble".
Number two: When Allison talks,
Kanye actually lets her finish.
The number one thing you don't
know about Allison Argent:
Allison is beautiful and courageous
and smart and talented and funny
and overall an incredible person,
but you probably already knew that.
So let's give it up for
Crystal Reed, everybody.
[Clapping]
[Cheers and applause]
All right, it's time for one last break,
but when we get back, we'll spend time
with our new Alpha of the week.

- [Whooping, applause]
And they've been hanging out with me,
and now we're adding a
fresh face to the discussion.
It's the new mega fan we've chosen
for our Alpha of the week.
Quinn Wentz lives in fort Wayne, Indiana,
and he wrote a song and made a video
that actually aired on MTV.
So let's check out some of war.
Save me
I think I'm losing my mind
you said you'd come for me
when the world swallowed me whole
well, this is war

- Wow.
- Wow!
- Wasn't that amazing?
- That's awesome.
- I loved that black light.
- That's awesome.
Okay, Quinn has actually
joined us via video chat.
Welcome to Wolf Watch, Quinn.
How are you?
Hello, I'm good.
How are you?
I'm good.
I'm so impressed with your voice.
- That's awesome!
- Yeah.
Amazing.
Okay, so let's let's actually
talk about the music videos.
Do you do all of that
yourself or do you have help?
Yeah, um, I write all the music,
write all of the lyrics.
- I sing it, I produce the track.
- Wow.
And then I will do the
videos all by myself too, yup.
- Amazing.
- That's amazing.
- Wow! Triple threat.
- That's amazing.
- Talented.
- Okay, so I also know
that you host a Teen Wolf
after show on YouTube.
What do you focus on in your show?
It's kind of more, like, uh, like, fans.
I do first I do a recap
and then kind of a reaction,
and then I have a segment
where I have a bunch of fans from the show
send in topics and comments
that they want to talk about,
and I just discuss them.
Uh-huh, little competition for me, I see.
I'm gonna be watching you!
[Laughter]
Now you can hear from the
other side of the camera,
'cause Christian's here
you know, producer, director.
You've got to have a question for him.
Yeah, actually, uh, I
know you wrote and directed
Motel California.
That was one of my favorite episodes.
I just wanted to know,
what was the, uh, inspiration behind that?
Well, thank you.
That's very nice of you.
And, um, you know what?
We we talked about
doing a bottle episode,
which is the term that you sort of
- shoot in one set.
- Mm-hmm.
And but we wanted to
make it as scary as possible.
And, uh, I always sort of view that episode
as, like, a little bit of a musical box.
Like, it's very it's
very intricately designed
with not a lot.
And the actors were very kind
and Jeff was very kind to let me direct.
And I hope it delivered.
Yeah, that was that was a great episode.
That they these last few
I mean, the whole show is amazing,
but the last few seasons,
I think it's just gotten
so, so much better.
It just keeps improving.
Great.
I agree with you.
All right, well, you are so sweet, Quinn.
Thank you so much.
An
amazing job on your videos.
Keep those coming.
Amazing.
- Thank you.

- saving his friends.
