'Teen Wolf' season 5 spoilers: Stiles the latest target of the Dread Doctors? Friendship with Scott in trouble in episode 4

The Dread Doctors are starting to make their presence felt in "Teen Wolf" season 5. In today's episode titled "Condition Terminal," Malia tells Stiles about the mad group of medics. It is presumed this is the reason Stiles is in pursuit of a criminal in this installment.

Stiles just keeps on hurling himself to troubles and it is a mystery that Scott isn't there to talk some sense into him. In the MTV series' San Diego Comic Con panel, the executive producer Jeff Davis revealed a shocking detail that would explain all this.

"Something happens in episode 5 at the beginning of the episode that causes a rift between Scott and Stiles," Davis teased. "However, they might start to drift apart a little before their big fallout," he continued. And it looks like this is the "start" he was talking about.

The Dread Doctors are said to be the biggest villains Scott and the pack had to fight. This easily makes "Teen Wolf" season 5 the scariest run of the popular supernatural series.

"These are our only villains that carry on to the next season," Tyler Posey who plays Scott previously revealed to E! Online. "They have another [season], they will carry on because they will evolve," he went on to say.

Speaking of Posey's character, the actor was quoted by IB Times as saying in the convention that "Scott feels like he can't handle his own pack" and it's "falling apart around him." "He can't figure out what it is and why and I think he is dealing with the idea that somebody can handle the pack or be a better Alpha than he can," he added.

In "Teen Wolf" season 5 episode 4, which airs today, viewers will also see Liam be a "wingman" for Mason during their night out to show his gratitude towards the latter's help in finding clues about Tracy, who ended up being murdered by the Dread Doctors.
