Scott (Tyler Posey) and Malia (Shelley Hennig) will attempt to free their friends from the Dread Doctors in the upcoming episode of MTV's hit series "Teen Wolf."

In "Ouroboros," Cartermatt reports that the two will try to extract Liam (Dylan Sprayberry) and Hayden (Victoria Moroles) who were kidnapped during the perilous fight last episode. Meanwhile, what Deaton (Seth Gilliam) will discover about the Dread Doctors will horrify him. What sort of secret will he find that could possibly send him hightailing out of town?

Viewers will also see some characters cause damage to themselves. The website posits that the title of episode 8 will be reflected in the show's context. Ouroboros is a creature from Greek mythology, often depicted as a dragon swallowing its own tail. This may mean that some of the pack members will invariably suffer at their own hands.

Meanwhile, Fashion & Style believes that Theo (Cody Christian) has something to do with Liam and Hayden's predicament. The sleazy character has shown he is capable of lying through his teeth to boost his standing in Scott's pack. It appears that he and the Dread Doctors are working in conjunction with the other. What type of connection do they have? Deaton's discovery may be connected to Parrish (Ryan Kelley), as the title of the episode can also pertain to him and what he has become.

Last episode, Stiles (Dylan O'Brien) was forced to work with Theo after the latter saved him from Josh (Henry Zaga). They agreed not to tell the Alpha about what happened. In exchange, Theo would not divulge that Stiles was the one who finished Donovan (Ashton Moio).

Elsewhere, Hayden started to change. She already had glowing eyes, fangs, and talons. Kira (Arden Cho), for her part, had to deal with the surging power trapped inside her. She almost killed her mother in a duel. Later on, she went missing, leaving only the clue "115" to point out where she had gone.

While preparing their sting operation to trap the Dread Doctors, Liam realized that Scott was using Hayden as bait. He made the Alpha promise that he would not let the girl be hurt. An unknown assailant began attacking them, and when the pack eventually snapped out of their phantasm, Liam and Hayden were gone.

"Teen Wolf" airs on Monday at 10 p.m. EST on MTV.
