The Originals

Previously on "The Originals."

This town was my home once.

I want it back.

You are free. Go far away and never come back.

Every werewolf will be a bundle of fur

and sharp teeth tonight whilst your cursed Crescent clan will be...

Human but only for a few hours

and won't be again until the next full moon.

I'm Jackson.

You're the wolf who's been watching me.

You were supposed to be my wife.

It's herbs ground into paste.

On the next full moon when your people become human, feed it to them.

The curse will be broken.

Kieran, voice-over: I've been hexed, and I don't know how long I have.

The ancestors said they'd do horrible things

to me if I misused my magic again.

Marcellus, you are here by exiled.

If I so much as find a trace of you, it will not end well for you.

Nicely done, brother.

You're beginning to sound like me.

Klaus, voice-over: They say the passage of time

will heal all wounds...

But the greater the loss, the deeper the cut...

And the more difficult the process to become whole again.

The pain may fade, but scars serve as a reminder of our suffering

and make the bearer all the more resolved never to be wounded again.

So as time moves along,

we get lost in distractions,

act out in frustration...

React with aggression...

Give in to anger.

All the while, we plot and plan as we wait to grow stronger.

Then before we even realize that so much time has passed...

We are healed, ready to begin anew.

Spoken like a man who's made peace with his demons.

My demons are dead or chased off.

Yes, apart from the one lingering monster with whom you share a bed.

I trust you can find your clothing and the door.

You do recall that... woman tortured our sister?

She also revealed the truth about our sister's treachery.

And as a consequence, Rebekah is gone forever.

A desire which she apparently harbored for quite some time!

Niklaus, it has been a month.

Now I feel our sister's loss as deeply as you,

but you must stop distracting yourself

with this ridiculous behavior and channel it

into some kind of action.

Why must I exactly?

Because over the course of Marcel's tenure,

the city grew accustomed to having a King.

You wanted this throne.

Now you must accept the responsibility that accompanies that.

Apologies, but I'm rather ensconced in other pursuits.

If you can so easily neglect your home,

I wonder what will become of your daughter.

Have you forgotten what it was like

to live beneath the threat of violence?

We must work together, Niklaus.

Let's make this city whole again.

Perhaps it is too broken to mend.

If you won't do anything, I will.

St. Anne's has long been neutral ground

in our city, so it's only fitting that we gather in this chamber

at the behest of Elijah Mikaelson

to bring harmony to this place we call home.

Thank you all for coming.

Yes, thank you, and welcome.

These are the rules of the city according to Marcel Gerard...

Which of course no longer apply because I am in charge.

You said if we came along that

we would get to run things by ourselves.

Never mentioned anything about making yourself King.

While you were each selected to represent

your own communities, and I'll honor that.

However, issues which arise between factions, they will come to me.

Now we are all to some extent responsible

for the current chaos in the city.

However, you have one very, very simple choice ahead of you here.

You can all play nicely together, or you can leave.

Bay lavi à cette Fleur.

Bay lavi à cette Fleur.

Bay lavi à cette Fleur.

Maintenent.

See, Davina? It's easy.

All you have to do is try.

I am trying.

Trying and failing ever since you came back.

When are you gonna stop being such a bitch to me, Monique?

When you stop being weak.

You're supposed to be a harvest girl, but maybe you don't belong here.

Maybe you never did.

Shouldn't you be out there playing fight club

with the rest of the frat boys?

Nah. That's just for pecking order.

They already know who's the Alpha.

Ohh!

Next up!

You got to try Tucker's ribs.

Then what? Then we're gonna go play horseshoes?

Hey. Don't mock country living, darling.

Sorry. This is just a lot more family fun

than I'm used to.

Well, maybe I can help you get used to it.

Then all we got to do is just forget

that she spent half her life with humans

and the other half with vampires.

Ollie, back off.

It's ok. If the runt of the litter has got something to say,

he should say it.

You know, word from the quarter is

your boy Elijah's holding some kind of power summit.

Guess who wasn't invited.

Where did you hear this?

It doesn't matter.

The point is is that we're stuck here living

in the swamp while your vampire boyfriend's

deciding who gets what in the city,

but I guess that shows how much respect he's got

for the werewolves, huh?

This is our city, too.

We should be able to go wherever the hell we want.

We would consider it an act of war.

We're getting nowhere. You vile creatures

cannot agree...

Father, calm yourself, please.

Thank you.

Now returning to the issue of boundaries,

you will all heed to the following.

Are you serious?

You're dividing up the city, and the werewolves don't even get a say?

What the hell is she doing here?

Diego, sit.

We are not dividing the city.

We're establishing boundaries...

No, Elijah!

There is not gonna be a peace if the werewolves are excluded.

They want a seat at the table...

And if they don't get one,

I can guarantee that you will all regret it.

Do you have any idea what it took

just to get those people in one room together?

No, actually, I don't because I didn't even know what you were doing

out here until someone else told me.

Tell me something, Elijah.

Did you leave the werewolves out because of me?

I excluded them because they no longer reside in the French quarter.

My immediate concern is to end the mounting conflict here.

Now I can assure you once this treaty is solidified

it will expand to include your people.

And until then, I should tell them what?

Sit, stay, roll over?

I would prefer that you remove yourself from the process altogether.

Hayley, are you absolutely certain

that you shouldn't return to the compound?

You think the baby belongs there?

You think that's where she'll be safe?

Is the bayou any better?

The wolves deserve a voice.

Give them one.

You know it's the right thing to do.

You should have seen your brother's face

when Hayley walked in.

Crescent curse is broken then?

Do you believe this will actually work,

that we can finally have some semblance of peace in this city?

I saw the light from the courtyard and took a chance that...

You weren't with a half-naked psychowitch.

Seems I gambled and lost.

10 minutes ago, I was fully naked.

Oh. Then you served your purpose.

Don't let me hold you up.

You O'Connells sure do love to piss off witches.

Really? The woman tried to blackmail me

into stabbing you with the mystical knife of excruciating pain.

Well, New Orleans breeds nothing if not strange bedfellows,

but I assume you're not here to question me on my leisure activities.

He's... deteriorating.

The pills, the meditation, they're not working.

His lucidity's shrinking by the day.

A witch did this, a witch can undo it.

You seem supertight with Genevieve.

Maybe you could persuade her to help.

It won't do any good.

These hexes, they start with magic, but as they take root, they alter

the very chemistry of the brain.

I'm sorry, Cami.

The damage is done.

I refuse to accept that, and you would, too, if you had

any concept of family.

Josh.

Davina, what are you doing out here?

I would have met you anywhere you wanted.

I mean, not anywhere Klaus or Marcel

would be, which could be pretty much, you know, anywhere,

but you know what I mean.

Hey. You ok?

It's Monique.

She has no idea what I went through when I was dead.

The ancestors hated me for what I did with my magic.
