The Secret Circle

Previously on the "Secret Circle"...

What is that?

A power totem.

Draws away weakness to intensify your strength.

Put this under your bed for a few weeks,

and you'll be left with nothing but pure power.

I'm Eva, Lee's girlfriend.

You told me the devil's crack destroyed her.

But then she got better and came back here.

Look, Faye, it's complicated.

I came back from the dead for you.

You can't just dump me.

My name is Calvin Wilson.

You're in danger. Remember this?

I had a feeling you'd try to be a hero.

My son and your daughter are written in the stars.

Written in the stars isn't just destiny.

It's a curse.

Hi.

What?

You're just so beautiful.

You wanna do some circle magic

and try and stop time?

Mm, well, that's tempting.

But then we'd be stuck in this bed forever.

We'd find something to do.

I keep thinking about the first time we did magic together...

How it felt when you touched my hand.

I know.

Then after that, I just couldn't stop thinking about you...

About...

This.

So how's the real thing working for you?

== sync, corrected by elderman ==

My dark magic did this?

Not your magic,

you and Adam.

Us?

How. It's not like we were sitting around,

casting dead bird spells.

No, I suspect you two

were engaged in other activities.

Oh, God.

How could we have anything to do with this?

What you did unleashed a curse.

What curse?

The one placed on your 2 families a long time ago

to stop the Blakes and the Conants from ever being together.

That's crazy.

Why do you think this?

Your mother told me about it.

The birds are a harbinger,

a sign that the curse has been activated.

You don't believe this is true, right?

I--I don't know.

There's a hundred dead birds on my lawn.

Ok, but then why-- why would my dad

make such a big deal about our destiny being connected,

written in the stars?

Maybe she didn't tell him.

I don't know the details of the curse,

just that it scared your mother enough to drive her away.

The only other person she would have

confided in is your grandmother.

My grandmother,

she's not in good shape.

Well, we have to try.

Sooner we talk to her, the better,

and in the meantime...

Don't do anything to make it worse.

Lee.

Lee!

Lee is out.

What are you doing here?

I have a key,

so I'm not breaking and entering like you are.

Did he talk to you yet?

He said he was struggling with his feelings

and needed time to think,

and then he just took off.

That's not what he said last night.

And since when does Lee think?

Guess you didn't know him as well as you thought.

Can you just go now?

I'd like to be alone.

Lee!

What are you doing?

Lee.

I said go!

What the hell?

You are seriously psycho.

She threw it at my head.

The girl has serious anger issues.

Which girl?

Faye had a run-in with Eva.

She almost killed me.

She claims Lee left town,

but I think she did something to him.

Guy got stuck in between you and his ex at casino night.

You know, maybe he just bailed.

Then why is his car still there?

- He took a cab? - No way.

He worships that car.

He thinks it makes him look badass.

We need to search it.

That's illegal, Faye.

Not if we don't get caught.

Are you sure this is about Eva?

- What did I just say? - It's just...

We both know how obsessed you can get about a guy.

Maybe you're overreacting.

You weren't there, Melissa.

Eva was hiding something from me

behind those doll eyes and creepy voice.

When do I ever ask you two for help?

Grandma.

Hey.

Amelia?

No, it's Cassie, remember?

Oh, of course, sweetheart.

Ohh.

Honestly, Amelia, why would you bring him here?

Come on. Let's go sit.

I--I wanted to ask you something important

about the Conants and the Blakes...

and a curse.

Why do you keep torturing yourself about this?

I wish you would reconsider and tell Ethan.

It's too dangerous not to.

It's just I don't remember all the details.

Several generations ago,

a seer witch cursed the Conants and the Blakes

to stop them from ever coming together.

Why? Why would someone do that?

Jealousy.

And what if a Conant and a Blake did get together?

Please tell me you and Ethan didn't.

No. Uh...

But what if we did?

Then you would awaken the curse,

and you can never let that happen.

Why?

Because if you awaken the curse,

someone in your circle will die.

Who'd you piss off now?

It was before our time.

A witch put a curse on our families.

What kind of curse?

Apparently to keep our families from coming together.

Last night, we activated it.

Ohh.

So you two finally graduated

from hand-holding and smooching.

Congrats.

What does that mean for any of us?

It affects the whole circle.

- How? - My grandmother said

that one of us might die.

No offense,

but the last time I saw your grandma,

she was a little--

Faye. This is no joke.

I have been feeling kind of tired.

I wasn't feeling that great this morning.

Uh-uh. No one is dying.

It's just a story your great-greats

told their kids so they wouldn't have sex.

It's abstinence education at work.

Are you two coming?

She's dealing with psycho-ex drama.

Yeah.

Faye's right. No one's dying.

I still haven't heard from Jake.

I was knocking.

Have you been in bed all day?

I think I'm coming down with something.

Had a fever all morning

and weird dreams.

Hey.

What is that?

I have no idea.

What?

We need to talk.

It's a curse.

On our families.

If a Blake and a Conant...

If a Blake and a Conant what?

Uh...

How am I dragged into this?

The curse is someone in the circle could die.

Whatever it is, we will find a way

to keep it from spreading.

Took a curse to figure out

being with Adam was a colossal mistake?

Hey. I think I found the way to fix this.

This is a recipe for an elixir

that Amelia tracked down.

I think this'll break the curse.

If she had an elixir, why didn't she use it?

- I don't know. - Who cares?
