Notes & Trivia[]
- First of a two-part season premiere episode.
- "TW: Omega" redirects to this page.
- Beginning with this episode, the series now has a regular opening title sequence.
- This episode aired on Sunday evening, June 3rd, 2012. The following episode, "Shape Shifted" aired on it's regular Monday time slot on June 4th.
- The events of this episode take place in 2011, only a few days after the events from "Code Breaker".
- Kate Argent's funeral is held in this episode. Kate was killed in the season one finale, "Code Breaker".
- It is established in this episode that being part of a pack literally makes a werewolf stronger. This is demonstrated when Derek Hale up-ends a bulldozer tractor, then sets it down again.
- This episode introduces the mystery of the black blood that both Lydia and Jackson begin to exhibit. The theory is that their bodies are rejecting parts of the werewolf curse.
- An "Omega" is a werewolf that is without a pack. The notion is that a lone werewolf is significantly weaker than a werewolf who is part of a pack, as exemplified by how easily the hunters are able to string him up and cut him down.
- Kate Argent's tombstone reveals that she was born in 1983.
- First appearance of Lydia Martin's parents.
- First appearance of Matt, the photographer at Kate Argent's funeral. He will become more important as the series progresses.
- It is possible that an Omega's connection to other werewolves is so diminished that they cannot be perceived as a lycanthrope by others. This could explain why Jackson did not recognize the Omega as a werewolf when he passed him in the high school parking lot.
