So, despite all logic to the contrary, I kinda feel like they are screwing with us in the last episode. SPOILERS ahead for those that care.

So Sally goes back in time and ends up saving herself. A bunch of stuff happens and she hooks up with Aiden. It gets interesting after that because on the full moon before Josh changes Nora, they almost have sex, similarly to how he did the day after the full moon in the other timeline. Instead, Sally breaks in on them, and helps Josh get to the basement, but not without getting scratched herself.

New female werewolf, right? Yeah, but the creators never bother to really show it (showing and not telling is one of the basics of storywriting and I don't know how they have completely forgotten that). Two full moons go by and we don't see anything from Sally other than a scene of her taking her shirt off with Josh in the woods. This was especially disheartening because Josh was building up how being a werewolf changes you mentally, and Sally was mocking how painful the change would be, and we don't get a scream or a morning after scene, or anything. Sally's character also goes largely unchanged. On top of this, the night that Josh infects Sally, he actually has a REALLY impressive transformation (claws, teeth, shirt bursting, muzzle growth), so it wasn't like they didn't have money to show at least some of Sally's change. Here's hoping for some extras on the DVD.
