Let me add Derek and the teacher to the WTF things that you mentioned. At the end of the ep where they were all locked in the storage unit and there was a huge, bloody werewolf battle and he walked into the little cage thing she was in and instead of being traumatized and terrified, she got this "whoa, I just was almost killed by werewolves, but this guy is HOT!" look on her face and it made me shake my head.
May I also add that I'm not thrilled with this starting at the end and working your way back to the beginning thing they've had going on in a few episodes.
I'm still into this show way more than I expected but the things you mention, especially with regards to Derek and Scott and their respective prospective packs are worrying me too.
I agree, her reaction was completely bizarre. She must process super fast, I guess. I think it's possible she saw Derek attack Boyd and Cora and thereby distract them from her, but I still think a normal person would be a little more wigged than trusting even so. I mean, Derek is hot, but he's not "blow off the fact that ZOMG WEREWOLVES TRIED TO EAT ME FIVE SECONDS AGO" hot.
Maybe it's the backwards stuff that's making all this so hard to parse. I honestly am not sure when it was that Lydia slept with Aidan, and that seems like an important thing. It's kind of a fuck you to Team Scott if she knew these guys were part of a pack trying to kill them all and slept with him anyway.
I admit I generally prefer the tumblr version where there's more Stiles and Derek interaction. :) But I still have a lot of fun watching it - so much so that I want it to be better at this stuff. It does a lot of things really right, for which I give full credit, but the stuff it gets wrong makes it actually fail to make sense.

See, I think that's the heart of the problem. It's hard not to want it to make SOME sort of sense.
