Legacies

Previously on Legacies... you need to know about Finch-- My dad built this school for There's something what she is. people like us. Come with me.

Hope?

Landon? Landon!

I've been trapped in an alternate dimension

for what feels like forever, and I have no idea

how to get out.

You cannot move on from grief

if you are still holding onto it.

Give him life again with your art.

Monster problems multiplying.

Why do you think he'd run away? I don't know.

Something about it felt familiar.

I guess I figured out who the monster is after all.

I am merely forcing you to live up to your potential.

Seda...

Landon?

No, it's not serious.

I just need the artifact back for a little bit.

Yeah, I'll send somebody to come pick it up right away.

All right, yeah. Thanks, Dorian.

Uh-huh. Bye.

You're gonna put Cleo back in there, aren't you?

Yeah, next time you're planning something shady,

you should remember that there are vampires here

that can hear you.

I haven't decided

what to do with Cleo yet, okay?

Not in the long term, but for now,

it might be best for everyone's safety

if she's returned to the artifact

while I figure things out.

Look, I know you guys are close,

and you're probably here to tell me I'm wrong.

But I am this school's headmaster,

and I have the burden of making these tough decisions.

I get it.

I'm Team Shade, too.

Well, that's not the way things usually go around here.

Cleo manipulated Hope by creating a fake Landon,

and then tried to kill her.

Cleo's gotta go.

So I don't need to hear more from you, Doc.

But from Cleo, before you put her on ice, that's...

that's a whole other story.

That's between me and her.

Sorry.

Instinct.

I didn't hear you come in.

I got pretty good at being quiet.

And not half bad at haircuts.

You're pretty jumpy about people touching your weapons.

I guess I spent more time in the prison world than I thought.

Well, I will let you get dressed.

Um, do you...

maybe want to grab breakfast after?

Was there something you wanted to ask me?

It can wait.

Meet you in dining hall?

You know, you can relax.

Nobody here bites.

That was a marginal-at-best werewolf pun.

I was expecting some sort of sarcastic response.

Sorry, I'm a little overwhelmed.

Werewolves, vampires, witches.

There's a lot going on at this school.

Isn't it great?

I'll let you know how I feel about it

as soon as I figure that out.

Ignore them.

But speaking for this witch,

I'm really glad that you decided to come.

For breakfast.

We'll see about the rest.

I'm still not sure this is the right fit.

This place was literally built for people like us.

Jo, let's be real.

It was built for you and your sister.

Fair point, but I'm just a student here like anybody else.

No... you're the headmaster's daughter

who fits in here.

I'm a loner from Mystic Falls High

who hates group activities.

Those two things aren't the same.

Please, just give it a chance.

You gave me a school tour once.

It's time for me to return the favor.

I'll try to keep an open mind.

I thought I'd find you here.

You missed breakfast, so I brought you this.

I haven't really been around people in a while.

It's a lot right now.

I have a confession to make.

I used a locator spell to find you.

I just needed to make sure...

I'm really me?

Smart.

I mean, I know that, you know, this should be

enough proof, but--

I mean, I keep telling myself, like, it's actually you--

but, you know, I just...

after everything that's happened,

I just want to make sure.

Like "dig through all my stuff when I'm not there" sure?

I was about to confess that, too.

We've both been through so much, and...

I'm trying to be patient, but, I mean,

I have a lot of questions.

And I don't want to overwhelm you, but...

Help a girl out. I mean, I'm at a loss here.

I guess I'm still kind of processing everything.

Can't really put it into words yet.

I could really use something to take my mind off it all.

I might have just the thing.

Dr. Saltzman sent Hope and Landon

to go get the artifact.

Aren't you gonna say anything? 'Cause spoiler alert,

he plans on stuffing your ass back in it.

So be it.

That's it? That's all you got for me?

You are the one that insisted I be honest and real.

And now you're gonna be tight-lipped about things?

If that ain't hypocritical, I don't know what is.

I am not a hypocrite,

and I am not the villain everyone at this school

thinks I am.

I will prove it.

Well, go on and prove it, then, Cleo.

I can no longer hide from my past.

It always has a way of catching up with me.

So I will share my story.

What-what are you doing?

What is about to happen will feel strange,

but you will be safe.

And do not worry, I will make sure

you can understand the language.

No, I don't like the sound of that. Let-let go.

You came here for answers.

This is how I choose to give them to you.

Then do the damn thing.

Stop.

Cleo? W-Wait. Where you going?

Hey, what-- And where the hell am I?

Grandma, what is happening?

Where are the warriors going?

Good question, grasshopper. Come, come.

Don't worry, my dear.

Let me tell you a story.

A long time ago,

there was a monster that lived in the woods.

One day it sought out a happy and magical village.

It was searching for something special there.

The monster wanted that thing so badly

that it threatened to destroy the village to get it.

So the warriors gathered to defend their home.

But before they set out to battle,

a muse used her powerful magic

to get the warriors to fight

with their words instead of their weapons.

So the warriors went into the woods

to talk with the monster.

And the monster agreed to spare the village

in exchange for what it wanted.

What did the monster want?

It is agreed.

I got a bad feeling about this.

I, uh... I can't go in there with you.

Are you sure?

I bet Mr. Williams would love to see you.

When I was in the prison world, I hid out here one night.

I had a run-in with a monster who makes you see things

that aren't really there.

I kept hallucinating I was being rescued,

over and over.

Land, it's all right.

Of course you can wait out here.

I want to hear the good and the bad.

We can talk more on the walk back, okay? Okay.

Hey, Kirby.

It's been a while.

Miss getting stuffed in your locker?

Why do you have to go?

To keep the village safe.

Look, I wanted to wait to tell you this,

but you must know it now.

You're not just a witch, like your sisters.

You are special, as am I.

You are the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter.

You are a muse.

Like from the story? Yes.

What does a muse do?

A muse inspires people.

I use my magic to help the villagers

because I care about them.

And some day, you'll become

very powerful, and they'll need you, too.

That is why I must leave you.

Let me come with you.

No, you cannot. Because such power

comes with an obligation.

So I will use it to protect our home and most of all, you.
