Ep 2. Shape Shifted

In the second episode of season 2 of Teen Wolf, titled "Shape Shifted," we see the ongoing saga of Scott McCall, a high school student who has recently been bitten by a werewolf and is learning how to navigate his new life alongside his best friend Stiles and his love interest, Allison.

The episode begins with the discovery of a body deep in the woods, which the local authorities assume is the result of a bear attack. However, Scott and Stiles know better - they recognize the telltale signs of a werewolf attack, and suspect that there might be a rogue wolf on the loose. Meanwhile, Allison's father - who unbeknownst to her is a hired gun for a clan of werewolf hunters - is investigating the same attack, and becomes increasingly convinced that something strange is afoot in Beacon Hills.

As Scott begins to investigate the attack, he starts to notice strange changes in his body and behavior. He's stronger and faster than ever before, and finds himself experiencing vivid nightmares. Allison, too, begins to notice changes in her own life, as she becomes more and more enmeshed in the legacy of her family's werewolf-hunting past.

As the tension ratchets up, the episode takes a turn when Scott and Stiles discover that the rogue werewolf responsible for the attack is a familiar face - someone they went to school with, who has undergone an unexpected transformation into a wolf. As they scramble to figure out how to stop this new threat, they're also forced to confront their own fears and insecurities about what it means to be a werewolf.

The episode culminates in a dramatic confrontation between Scott and the rogue wolf, which forces Scott to confront his own capacity for violence and his growing understanding of the true nature of werewolf power. Along the way, we see his relationships with Allison and Stiles tested and strained, as they each struggle to come to terms with the new reality they find themselves in.

Ultimately, "Shape Shifted" sets the stage for what promises to be an action-packed and emotionally tumultuous season ahead. We're left with a sense of foreboding, as we realize that the stakes are higher than ever before - not just for Scott and his friends, but for the entire werewolf community.
