Spoilers for episode 5x05 - A Novel Approach
Two things stuck out to me in this episode.
1. Rules for supernatural beings - Kira, Scott, Stiles, and Lydia go to Eichen House to visit Dr. Valack. One of the defenses in the building is that areas are lined in mountain ash, so Scott and Kira can only go up to a certain point. But Lydia and Stiles can go anywhere in the building because they are human. Supernatural beings have to follow rules but humans have free will. Supernatural beings gain power but lose some freedom.
2. Strength and vulnerability - Stiles and Lydia have strength of character (bravery, intelligence, loyalty) but physically, they are more vulnerable than Kira, Malia, and Scott. But then, supernatural strength still has vulnerabilities. Kira isn't completely in control of her power and we see how that's dangerous to people around her. Malia has flashbacks of the car crash from her childhood and it distracts her from her surroundings (she crashes the car she's driving). Scott's downfall is how easily he trusts people, so despite his strength he sometimes lets people get close to him who will hurt him.
