"Teen Wolf" season 5 episode 12 brought back the hunter villain Gerard Argent, and it seems like the sick old baddie might be offering help to help defeat the beast.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, show creator Jeff Davis shares what endgame Gerard is chasing after in return for help he'll offer to defeat the Beast of Gévaudan. "

...Gerard wants the legacy of his family back — if they can defeat the Beast of Gévaudan again, he believes he'll restore the good name of the Argents to its legacy." Davis shares to EW. "He wants immortality in that sense. And the Dread Doctors have their own ambitions."

At first glance, "Teen Wolf" fans might think that Gerard could be turning a new leaf to redeem the family name, but is he? It just doesn't sound like the hunter that fans have come to know and hate. Some fans have taken this statement as Gerard's means of finally garnering immortality either through The Bite or by some other means, which sounds so much more like the Gerard of old.

After finding out that he had cancer, Gerard took advantage of the Kanima and the werewolves to lengthen his life going as far as to sacrifice his own family. If Gerard is to help Scott McCall defeat the Beast and he survives it, then we could be looking at a powerful comeback of the villain. "You'll see how things fall together or fall apart by the end of the season." Davis says.
