The Originals s01e21 Episode Script

Previously on "The Originals" If we can't create some sort of community, then what's the point? Kill each other and get it all over with.
I'm invested in protecting the people of this city, and to do that, I need the key.
I had Josh lift it for me.
Off my uncle.
My brother taught me this code 15 years ago.
You're Klaus' father? - I need you.
- What can I do? You can bring me back to life.
A moonlight ring to protect werewolves from the curse.
What do I have to do? I need to know what stone it housed.
A ring of empowerment, something to control this curse.
What kind of spell? A spell of my mother's.
All I ask is that the child is kept safe.
Our daughter should be raised by her parents in our family home.
The ancestors want us to kill Klaus' child.
Whatever it is you got coming with the wolves, just know that I'm gonna fight for my guys, I'm gonna fight for my city, and I will fight until I am dead.
I would expect nothing less.
Lot of driving for a bag of rocks.
We'll be in the quarter by dawn.
Sure the hybrid will do his part? Hayley will make sure of that.
Yeah.
I forgot your fiancée has got him wrapped around her finger.
You know, Ollie, I love you like a brother, but if you don't lay off Hayley, we're gonna have a problem.
Pay attention, Romeo.
All right.
Relax.
We ain't done anything.
Evening, officers.
Step out of the car, both of you.
What's this about? I think you should do what the man says Before things take a nasty turn.
Have I told you that you're awesome? Because you are, along with the sun, daylight rings That guy jogging in the tank top.
Josh, now that you have a ring, I think you need to leave town.
Whoa, wait.
We're breaking up? I'm serious.
Yeah.
I know.
Serious is kind of your default setting, which is why you need me around to lighten you up.
Ergo, not leaving.
Hey You ok? Just witch stuff.
Marcel came to me yesterday.
He wanted a cloaking spell.
He's gonna make a move against Klaus, a big move.
Wow.
Ok.
Guess he forgot to call me.
Rude.
Well, did you help him? Yes, because I don't want him to get killed, but if Klaus finds out Hey, look.
If Marcel has got a plan, maybe Klaus will buy a clue, realize he's a negative on the popularity chart, and go into vampire retirement.
I hear Palm Springs is nice.
Klaus isn't the only thing we need to be afraid of.
Look.
If there's a war coming, promise me you'll go before you get caught up in it.
Your mother's spell is as complicated as it is elegant.
She was clearly a very gifted witch.
Is this the bit here? Hey, like I said, it's complicated.
She bound protection magic to black kyanite stones.
A werewolf with the stones is free from turning on a full moon.
And what of the improvements? This spell will enhance speed, strength, and agility.
There should be something in there about fangs.
It's what my mother used on us when she turned us into vampires.
Not just fangs.
You said you want venom so the bite is still lethal to vampires.
Hmm.
Here.
Should make a nice gift.
I'm sure Hayley will be thrilled.
Oh, not just Hayley.
You'll be making quite a few of these.
Let's call it an even hundred.
That's not the deal I made with Elijah.
Well, you're dealing with me now And I am offering considerably more.
You think because I sleep with you, I'm suddenly at your beck and call.
Because you sleep with me, luv, I will protect you from those who might do you harm, including my brother.
Because I need you, however, I'm prepared to offer something more valuable than my protection.
Which is what? My mother's grimoire, from which I took these spells.
You see, Elijah is offering you a mere peek at its pages, but I will grant it to you as a gift if you pledge your loyalty to me, beginning with the creation of those rings.
This has been your plan all along.
You want to build a werewolf army, and you're using me to do it.
Sweetheart, I'm not the enemy.
Nor are the wolves.
Your abusive coven expects you to sacrifice yourself for the last of the harvest girls.
Do this one favor for me, and you need never fear anyone ever again.
Ma'am, you need to leave.
Hey, hey, what's going on? Folks, you need to leave now.
Hey Hey, what are you I tried to be nice about this.
Who the hell do you think you are? I am the new owner of this gumbo shack.
Ink is not dry on the contract yet, but I can tell you, I got it cheap.
Business is not what is used to be since Sophie Deveraux kicked the bucket.
Look.
I don't want any trouble.
I don't really care what you want.
Let's talk about what I want.
Right.
My uncle's key.
You said you were gonna use it to protect the innocents of the city.
Seems pretty ironic, given your line of work.
I'm a legitimate businesswoman who's never been convicted of a crime, and, as leader of the human faction, that key is mine.
I gave you time to mourn.
Now time is up.
Message received.
Let me just go find that key I don't have.
My family has been in New Orleans for a long time, Cami, even longer than yours, and we've learned it's a very hard city to get by in if you don't have any friends.
I'd like to be your friend.
So I'm gonna give you until tomorrow, and after that, I won't be so friendly.
Uh! Uh! Uh! Uh! Leave him alone! We'll leave your boy alone when you tell us what Klaus is up to.
How the hell should I know what he is up to? See, I know you've been meeting him.
The stones in your duffel bag, it's black kyanite.
It's pretty rare.
I also know enough about witchcraft to recognize the ingredients of a spell.
So you gonna make me ask again? Ok.
You want to know the problem with having two werewolf hostages? You really only need one.
You crescent boys, you think you're a bunch of badasses, but back in '25, I wiped out a whole bloodline of Guerrera werewolves.
They were a lot tougher than you.
Wait! You let him go, I will tell you about the stones, about Klaus Whatever.
Gah! All right.
All right.
A deal is a deal, but since nirvana here is gonna turn into a wolf in about 8 hours, D.
, drop his ass off way out in the bayou.
Will I at least get to kill this fool? No.
I got a better idea.
Yes, brother? What is it? It appears our wolves have gone astray, brother.
They should've been back hours ago.
We need to find them.
Well, that might be a bit tricky.
You see, we've located their car on a back road in the middle of nowhere.
I suspect they've been shanghaied.
And you didn't feel the need to share this information? It was my intention to present you with the problem only after I'd found an appropriate solution.
Well, do enlighten us.
I'm closing in on it as we speak.
The only person who would be bold enough to snatch my wolf allies is the one who has the most to lose.
Marcel.
No.
He'll kill them.
Genevieve assures me that Marcel has procured a cloaking spell.
The only witch who will aid Marcel is Davina.
I just need to get one last bit of leverage before I pay her a visit And there it is.
Hello, Joshua.
Agh Davina Uh! Josh? I'm sorry.
What happened? Joshua went and got himself a werewolf bite.
Well, a hybrid bite, technically, but it will kill him just the same.
Why are you doing this? I blame you.
After all my overtures of friendship, you once again sided with Marcel, forcing me to do horrible things to someone you care about.
I'm not without mercy, Davina.
I can cure him, but you have to cooperate and tell me where to find Marcel.
Why, so you can kill him, too? Marcel chose his path.
Seems unfair that Josh should have to suffer for it.
Davina He's at a warehouse at the docks Thierry's place.
You see? That wasn't so hard, now, was it? What about Josh? Well, he'll live another 24 hours or so.
I may need you, and Joshua serves as wonderful leverage.
The next time I ask a question, answer quicker.
Thank you for your time.
I didn't realize my uncle even had this place until a read about it in his will.
This building has been in my family for decades.
You uncle helped us raise the funds to restore it after Katrina.
I figured he'd kept this room for extra space.
Anyway, I didn't ask any questions.
You know, Father K.
, he was as good as they come.
Sorry for your loss.
Um Do you mind if I go in alone? Here's to buried treasure.
Hello.
Elijah should've called by now.
Worrying isn't going to help.
You should sit down, try to keep calm.
What are you now, magician-slash-zen life coach? The treatment of pregnant women has advanced remarkably since I was a nurse, but even I know high blood pressure is bad for you and your baby, especially now that you're so close to term.
I hate this.
I feel completely useless.
Don't you get it? You're the point of all this.
Klaus and Elijah running all over town, it's all for you.
I'm a bit envious.
Great.
Lucky me.
Is there anything I can get you? How about a moonlight ring? The spell can't be performed until the full moon reaches its apex, and, of course, I need the stones, which will be here soon enough.
Have a little faith.
Accolades to Marcel.
He did quite a dance across the bridge of your nose.
Where is he now? Nowhere to be found Although he did leave us a delightful parting gift.
What about the stones? I don't know.
Untie me.
I'll help you find them.
Sit still.
You'll be freed as soon as it's safe.
Our focus should be the stones.
Considering Jackson is competition for Hayley's affection, I think you'd agree.
Disregard my brother.
Over the course of the last millennium, his capacity for tact is somewhat diminished.
Oh, that's typical, isn't it? Marcel fills a room with dynamite, and yet I'm the tactless one.
I recognize these explosives from the attack on the bayou.
Could you remind me again why you believed that Marcel was innocent? Remind me to ask him before I pull out his innards.
Ah.
Ok.
Exercise extreme caution in this general area.
Bit of a mess.
Impeccable timing.
What's going on? Jackson is fine.
He's a little tied up right now.
Could we call you back? Oh, that doesn't bode well.
Jackson; Are you trying to kill us? Elijah, tell me what's going on now.
Thank God you're alive.
Ok.
I'm fine, too.
Thanks for asking.
What about the stones? Scattered across the bed of the Mississippi, I imagine.
Marcel is no fool.
He knows an empowered werewolf army would mean the end of vampires in New Orleans.
The explosion is his way of saying he means to prevent that, for all the good it'll do him.
Well, it did him pretty damn well, didn't it? This is my fault.
I will find a way to fix it.
No, Jack.
You're hurt, and no one is blaming you.
I'm blaming you.
Those stones will be hard to replace.
Fortunately, I always have a backup plan.
You can't seriously mean her.
She's a gangster.
I see her more as a means to procuring rare items at short notice.
Greetings, Ms.
Correa.
I see you've brought company.
These are my brothers.
I always include them in delicate business matters.
Fellas, meet Mr.
Mikaelson.
Please, call me Klaus.
All my friends do.
I don't know if I'd call us friends, but if you and Marcel are planning on having a little throwdown, I'd prefer my family to be on the same side as the inevitable Victor.
Then you have what I asked for.
Not enough for an army at such short notice, but it's start.
Strange, I wasn't aware that she was familiar with our plan.
My price for doing business is full disclosure.
Your brother complied.
How does the human faction expect to benefit from all this? I only want to solidify our allegiance to the ruling class.
It's good for business.
If only everyone shared your capacity for reason.
Sadly, they don't.
Marcel is being especially vindictive.
I'm worried he might come after me or my family just for meeting with you.
It might be in our best interests if we combine our efforts.
So be it.
The more bodies we have to defend the compound, the better.
Let's get started, shall we? There.
Thank you.
Don't thank me.
It was Elijah who vamped your ass to safety.
Yeah.
He really seems to care about you.
It's complicated.
I think that's the understatement of the year.
Look.
I got to go, get back to the bayou before the moon rises, so Jackson, this will be the last time.
After tonight, you'll never have to turn again No more pain, no more hiding in the bayou, I promise.
You know, Klaus isn't doing this out of the kindness of his heart.
He's doing it for you, Hayley.
You're the one who's gonna change everything for us.
Seems I owe you yet again.
I understand he risked his life to save his friend.
He's a good man.
Yes.
He is.
Elijah, there is something that I need to tell you.
My family wanted me I was supposed to be betrothed to Jackson.
I wanted to tell you sooner.
I just didn't know how.
It's this insane custom.
No.
You don't need to explain anything.
I understand the need to make sacrifices for one's family.
Oh, come on, Elijah.
For once in your immortal life, can you just not be so noble? What would you have me do? I just told you that I'm betrothed according to some backwater arrangement by people that I never knew.
Tell me that you think betrothals are stupid.
Tell me that I have a choice.
You will always have a choice.
I trust you are ready.
The last ingredient is personal.
As this spell is designed to control transformation, I need the blood of a werewolf who doesn't turn on a full moon.
My first thought was Hayley because of the pregnancy.
Out of the question.
I'd just as soon limit the mother of my unborn child to the side effects of your witchery.
I am half wolf.
I control my form.
Use my blood.
If you fail to uphold your end of the deal, the consequences for you will be apocalyptic.
You say the most romantic things.
I appreciate you all coming.
It's been a while.
By now, you've heard what's going on.
Klaus found a way to make werewolves lethal to us 24/7.
The fireworks at the docks, that was me trying to spoil his plan.
He's moving forward, anyway.
He's got as witch, he's got a spell, and if he pulls this off, in one night, we go from hunter to prey.
Now, I know what some of y'all are thinking.
"We stood against Klaus before, and we failed.
" Uh-uh.
That's on me.
I failed.
I called off the attack because I thought it was the only way to save lives, but make no mistake.
If we don't stand against him now, our lives aren't worth a damn, anyway.
Yeah.
Wise man said, "if you know yourself and know your enemy, then you don't need to fear the outcome of battle.
" I know myself, I know my friends, and I know my enemy.
I know his strengths, I know his pride, and I know his house, every nook and cranny.
We're gonna go there tonight hard and fast all at once from every angle.
We kill their witch, destroy her spell book, and get the hell out Yeah! Yeah! And as for Klaus, he'll be coming for me, and that's exactly what I want.
I'll lead him away.
I just need the rest of you to get past Elijah and do what needs to be done.
So that's the plan.
I need to know right now, who's with me? Yeah! Yeah! Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
My people say Marcel is on the move and he's bringing friends.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Get Hayley to safety.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Come with me.
No.
Someone needs to watch her.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
You should help Klaus.
My brothers and their security detail won't be much against a vampire army.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
I'll stay with Hayley.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Go, Elijah Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
And don't hold back.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
I thought this lot would've learned their lesson.
Well, they're not exactly renowned for their genius.
So where's the ringleader of this circus Too afraid to show his face? I'm here.
I'm gonna offer you one last chance to pack your stuff and get the hell out of my town.
Or what, you'll allow your men to rush to their deaths again? Look around.
Every vampire in the quarter came out.
They want their city back, no surrender this time.
You're gonna have to kill us all.
Ok.
I think I'll start with you.
Fine.
Come get me.
If you don't kill him, I will.
He's mine.
This won't take long.
Gentlemen Shall we? Raah! Raah! Not bad, but not nearly good enough.
How pathetic you've become.
Explosives, Marcellus, really? I should've know it was you who detonated those bombs in the bayou.
The docks, that was me.
I got the detonators from Francesca.
Why don't you ask her about the bayou bombing? Lies and distractions.
I never went after Hayley.
I'm not a monster, Klaus.
I'm not you.
My family has been in New Orleans for a long time.
Flank him! Take him down now! Aah! Ms.
Correa, we need to go.
Your brothers are already heading out the back.
Not yet.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
Matera et lunare tua virtuse.
The stones are finished.
I've done my part.
Now it's up to you.
I'll get them to the bayou.
Actually, she was talking to me.
What the hell is this? Call it a side deal.
Point is, I'm taking the stones.
Are you out of your mind? You think that humans can go up against Klaus? No.
I don't, but I'm not human.
I'm like you, Hayley, and now I'm gonna take back my town.
Like hell, you are.
Don't look so dour, Genevieve.
We both got what we wanted.
Marcellus, how well your name fits you, little warrior, though ultimately one of no consequence.
My name is Marcel.
Is there no end to your defiance? You summoned Mikael, turned Rebekah against me, tried to bury me in your garden, and yet you always fail.
What is there left to do but put you out of your misery? Raah! Hayley, I've called 6 times.
Call me back.
You said you wanted to know if I learned anything about Francesca Correa.
Her family is descended from a werewolf bloodline.
We've spent two generations living a lie, and now our time Our time has come.
You know what do to.
Aagh! Ahh! Uh! Uh! Uh! Yeah.
Agh! Raah! Are we done? Well, nice job.
Saved me the trouble of killing all these vampires myself.
Rrgh! Raah! Aagh! Argh! Rrgh! Agh! Aah! Run! Kill as many of them as you can.
Aagh! Aah! Raah! Aah! I'm sorry, mate, but I'm a bit famished.
No.
No! Aah! Raagh! Arr Oh Uh Ha! You look awful.
Why aren't I healing? What have you done to me? You were the one that wanted me to cast the spell.
So I made your stones by linking their power to your blood, and now each full moon whenever a werewolf uses their power to keep from turning, they will be drawing from your strength and causing you pain.
After all I offered you, you will betray me? Look me in the eyes, Nik.
Were you ever planning to give me your mother's grimoire? Did you care about me, even for a moment? I suppose you'll never know.
Francesca kept her end of the deal.
There is, after all, honor among thieves, even if they are werewolves, and as for you, the great irony is, in wanting to take the city, you've lost everything Your sister Rebekah, your adopted son Marcel And now even your child and her mother will suffer, all because of your greed.
Raah! Aagh! I will kill you.
As weak as you are? Doubtful.
Aah! Josh, please drink this.
Oh, man.
Just hang on, please.
No! Surely, you're not surprised.
Deep down, you knew Niklaus would leave Joshua to die.
Why are you still here? I haven't much time left, but then, neither does your friend.
I can heal him.
I'll find a way.
Even if you could, how long till it happens again? As long as Niklaus remains in New Orleans, you and your loved ones will continue to suffer his torment.
I am the only man in history who's been able to drive him off, to bring him fear and pain.
If your friend needs Klaus' blood to survive, I've been known to spill a fair share of it.
You'll help me save Josh? I do have personal reasons for wanting Niklaus to suffer, but, yes, I'd like nothing more than you help you.
And all I have to do is raise you from the dead.
A small price to pay to cure your friend and live a life free of a monster.
Think, Davina.
There still exists a weapon that can kill Klaus.
Bring back the one being who has the strength to use it.
Who were you talking to? Doesn't matter.
I'm gonna fix you.
It's done.
A deal is a deal.
You said the bombing was gonna be minor, no casualties.
All I wanted to do was rally the crescents against the vampires.
And isn't that exactly what happened? People died My people, my pack! Your pack? That's funny Because it looked to me like they were ready to follow Hayley, but now, thanks to me, we have control of the very thing that will inspire loyalty from both the crescents and the Guerreras The means to make our people even more powerful.
The only thing I had to trade away was the one person who could've challenged us.
Poor Hayley.
It is a shame.
The witches drive a hard bargain, but every revolution requires sacrifice.
This city will belong to the wolves again.
All we have to do Is take it.
No.
No.
No, no, no, no, no.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No, no, no! Marcel Marcel, I'm sorry.
Uh.
Uh! Uh! Uh Oh, my God, Marcel, I've been trying to find someone, anyone.
What's happening? You need to get out of here.
My guys have been bitten by wolves.
They'll get sick and then blood-crazy.
We need to find Klaus.
His blood can heal you.
Marcel! Where is she? Where's Hayley? He doesn't have her.
Please.
I know you don't trust him, but you know I wouldn't lie.
He doesn't have her.
Someone does.
Where's my brother? I left him in the street.
He was gonna kill me, and then he got jacked up by some witch's spell.
Genevieve.
Please, no.
Get her down on the floor.
We should take her to the city of the dead.
We won't make it.
The baby is coming now.
No.
It's too soon.
Aah! Apparently not.
The plan was to induce her when the sacrifice was ready.
I had to subdue her, and the trauma caused a placental abruption.
So the baby is coming, and we'll just have to adapt.
Oh, let me go! You need to be calm, Hayley.
Why are you doing this to me? To be reborn, we must sacrifice.
What the hell does that mean, you psychotic, little bitch? The ancestors demand an offering in exchange for power.
And you child will be a fine offering.
No.
No.
You will not take my baby.
I will kill all of you.
No, you won't, and neither will Klaus or Elijah.
When your baby is born, we will offer it up to those who came before us.
I'm sorry, Hayley, but this is the way it had to be.
No.
No! No! No! Aah! Arrgh! Raagh!
