The Originals s02e21 Episode Script

Previously on "The Originals" I will use these ingredients to create a killing ground.
Our sister wants to use Hope to lure Dahlia into a trap.
If we can find a way to replicate the baby's power source, transferring it into the doll, that's our decoy.
No powerful witch is gonna be fooled by a doll.
They need a heartbeat.
(Chanting) Ah! What did you do to me? Hope's blood is now in you.
You are now the bait.
And this body is still linked to Davina and those children.
If I leave it and it dies, then Davina and the others die with it.
You helped Hayley escape with my daughter.
Rrgh! Agh Get out of my head.
I'm not in your head.
You're in mine.
If you have a deal to propose, then undagger me.
You will get to raise your daughter, and I will channel the magic that's been promised to me.
Hayley is attempting to flee.
Don't worry.
She won't get far tonight.
(Thunder) (Thunder) All right, then.
Simple bit of witchy business.
How difficult can it be? Remember, the hard part was Eva linking herself to the kids, and now it's your body.
Just got to do the unlinking yourself.
Read what I wrote, abracadabra, the link's severed.
Lovely.
Here's hoping I don't - turn us all into a horde of bullfrogs.
- (Thunder) (Music playing) (Thunder) Ha ha ha! Come on.
(Humming) Ha ha ha! - Oh.
- Good evening.
I wonder if you could help me.
I'm feeling a bit famished.
I'm sorry.
I I don't have any change.
Well, that's no problem, mate.
(Chuckles) I'll just help myself.
- Aah! - Uh! Sei pour sae kie sei mare noock virgam.
Sei pour sae kie sei mare noock virgam.
Almost there.
Keep going.
Sei pour sae kie sei mare noock virgam.
(Gasps) (Panting) Is it finished? Only one way to find out.
(Exhales) Heh heh.
Waah (Thud) You must be hungry, considering what you've endured.
I've never been daggered.
Never knew it was such an agonizing experience.
It does help explain why my siblings loathe me.
You need your strength for what's to come.
I suggest you replenish yourself before the storm.
(Thunder) Med disee secat ad scalpere benet.
(Rebekah): It's done.
I'm delinked from those children.
The covens are most grateful, and we even beat the rain.
I trust Davina will play her part.
Yeah, against my better judgment.
Stop being so overprotective.
If Davina's made regent to all 9 covens, she'll be granted the power to resurrect Kol and the political clout to connect the witches to our cause.
Don't pop the champagne just yet.
Dahlia said she'd come for the baby, and now a storm Springs up out of nowhere.
You really think that's a coincidence? Regardless of her power, she needs to be dealt with.
Fortunately, we have a weapon.
(Marcel): Look.
No offense, but are we really gonna put all our eggs into one still kind of mysterious basket.
I assure you I am quite motivated to aid in Dahlia's defeat, particularly now that Elijah has forced me to be the bait.
And if we should fail, Davina and the witches will take up the task, at the very least distracting Dahlia long enough for Hope and Hayley to disappear.
(Thunder, wind whipping) Elijah! Oh, no.
Where the hell is he? (Dahlia): Have you had your fill? Indeed.
I'm beginning to feel like my old self again.
How's that little one? Mary, I appreciate you coming, but you should know what you're going up against.
Ancient witch wants to steal my granddaughter? Not on my watch.
I brought you something might come in handy.
In my youth, wolves and witches had a peace.
Voodoo queen I knew showed me how to use herbs to tell when magic's afoot.
Combine Solomon Seal and Snapdragon and burn them.
If the smoke is white, all's clear.
If it's black, there's a hex in the air, and if it's red, well, then you know you're in trouble.
Just what I thought.
This storm ain't natural.
It's Dahlia.
She's trying to pin us down.
(Jackson): The road to the highway's flooded.
Quickest way out of here's on foot through back roads.
Let's roll.
Elijah called.
Klaus is gone.
We don't know where we went.
That settles it.
We got to get out of here.
What about the others? (Jackson): All right, everybody.
Listen up.
I want to thank you all for staying with us, protecting us.
For the past few weeks, each one of you has shown me more kindness than I have ever known.
Despite hardships and tragedy, you've all become the family that I always wanted.
You're my pack, but I can't let you risk your lives any more than you already have.
The witch who's coming, she's powerful, and she's not gonna stop.
Jack and I will be better off taking Hope and getting as far away as we can alone.
I want you to know how grateful I am for everything that you have offered me, us But I can't be your queen anymore.
You will always be their queen.
(Cami): What do you mean he's gone? (Rebekah): Exactly that.
The coffin's empty, and he is nowhere to be found.
If I had to guess, I'd say he's planning a long list of cruel and unusual punishments for his treacherous siblings.
Given that we have an ancient witch to kill, I hoped you might try reasoning with him, ideally before he goes ballistic.
I'm flattered, I guess, but what exactly am I supposed to say to him? Look.
Anything is better than nothing as long as it comes from you.
You're the only person he'll listen to.
Your brother is an unstable paranoid narcissist with chronic mood issues and zero impulse control.
Right now, he's furious because the people he loves most literally stabbed him in the heart.
That is his worst fear come true.
What makes you think he'll listen to anyone, least of all me? Please, Cami.
Isn't it clear by now he fancies you? Will you help us or not? Yeah.
I'll try.
(Thunder) My deadline has come and gone, and yet you bring me here.
I find it fitting.
This is where Freya plotted her own treachery.
When I granted you the strength to overcome that dagger's curse, I assumed you would thank me by taking swift and merciless action.
Am I to traipse around in this monsoon you've created? This storm is to stop your family from running with the child, so I wonder are you having second thoughts about standing against them? They are the family after all who left you here to rot.
I assure you there are no second thoughts.
We struck a bargain for the benefit of your child so that she would be delivered to me safely and be content by the presence of her father.
Make no mistake, I will take her with or without you.
Let me be clear about one thing, witch.
You need me.
I know my siblings better than anyone, their strengths, their weaknesses.
They are a powerful and determined lot, perhaps capable of evading you for the short year that you have until your slumber begins anew.
You may well loose everything, but I know how to vanquish those who stand against us, and that is exactly what I intend to do.
The storm has served its purpose.
Now enough delays.
I will take what is owed to me, and if the mother resists or attempts to run, I will kill her myself.
Oh, I wouldn't worry about that.
I have something planned for Hayley that's far worse than death.
(Elijah): Until Niklaus is found, Marcel and his men will scour the city.
Assuming Nik doesn't slaughter them.
You know as well as I do he'll be on the warpath, which again raises the question how in the hell is he even awake? (Freya): It was Dahlia.
This was all part of her plan.
No doubt she killed Aiden, hoping that the blame would fall on Klaus, the family would divide, and she could win Klaus to her cause.
That is absurd.
Nik would never align with Dahlia.
You continue to defend him.
He'd kill anyone who tried to take his daughter.
Isn't it Hayley who is trying to take his daughter? Their daughter.
Let's not forget that Dahlia's the true enemy here.
How good then that I finished my spell.
The ingredients in the paint of his artwork combined with my blood will render Dahlia vulnerable.
The moment she passes between these paintings, she will be mortal.
You can kill her using this.
Father's knife.
I thought it appropriate.
We have a visitor.
You shouldn't be here.
Marcel told me about Josephine.
I want to know who we need to kill.
We don't need kill anyone.
Leave here now, please.
You know what? I am done taking orders from you.
Who do you think you are? Now is not the time for this.
- It never is.
- Nor is it the place.
Now believe me when I tell you you cannot be here.
Is this is this your way of looking out for me? Whatever.
Too bad I don't play guessing games.
You don't have to.
Go.
Please.
If you find him, keep your distance.
Call me.
I'll handle it.
(Klaus): Sound advice.
Although I do wonder Hey How exactly would you handle me? Now before you get angry I am well past angry, Marcellus.
I am mad with rage, but today is your lucky day because I'm not gonna kill you.
No.
I need something from you, so instead I'm gonna take solace in the anticipation of ripping it out of you.
(Neck snaps) (Elijah): And you are certain this can work? Let's not toss around words like "certain.
" Nonsense.
You grow more adept with magic each day, and this spell is flawless, though I might have preferred Elijah ask my permission before volunteering me as the bait.
I'm not in the habit of asking permission.
No matter.
We have all that we need.
Rebekah will perform the spell, using my heartbeat and the golem to craft the illusion of Hope's presence.
Once Dahlia's lured into the killing ground, you will do what is necessary.
You're rather calm, which is odd since there are a million ways this whole plan could fall to pieces.
I admit At first I was upset when Elijah ignored my plan in favor of his own.
You are all so determined to protect Hope at all cost.
Perhaps I'm envious.
No one ever fought so hard to protect me.
Then I recalled what I saw when I looked inside your mind, the day you all swore and oath to stand by one another always and forever.
There's strength in such vows.
I can assure you it has not been free of consequence.
That is an understatement.
Ask me, that vow's been more trouble than it's worth.
And yet here you are, proving my point.
Family defines you even if it does demand sacrifice.
My entire life, I have longed for what you have.
It is better to at least glimpse it facing death than run forever and know nothing of family.
(Klaus): Wakey, wakey.
I was getting bored, but then some of your associates popped by to keep me entertained.
Keep them out of this.
Easy, easy.
You've suffered a substantial amount of blood loss.
I had to excise the vervain from your system, but then I can't have you impervious to my compulsion now, can I? Agh! Unh! Hello.
Pretty, I think you're gonna come in rather useful later on.
You've got what you came for.
Just kill them and be done with it.
With respect, dear Aunt Dahlia, this is all part of my plan.
My family, powerful though they may be, are bound by love, vows of friendship, and nauseating romantic entanglements, all of which I intend to use against them.
Marcellus will help turn the tide.
Mark my words.
By day's end, they will be laid low, and my daughter will be safe with us.
Listen, Davina.
The rite of supplication is just a formality.
You meet the elders and you show a little bit of respect what happened to you just telling them I'm gonna be regent? They only listened to me when they thought I was accepting the job, and if it's gonna be you, we got to grease some wheels.
The covens aren't just gonna choose me.
I mean, for that matter, why'd they want you? Because they think I'm a selfless saint who betrayed his wife to save a bunch of kids.
Hmm.
And if I got no one to answer to, I'm less inclined to play favorites.
Basically, I'm an outsider just like you.
You know, I was put to death by people like this.
They sacrificed me and my friends for nothing.
Yeah.
And as regent, you'd have the power to make sure nothing like that ever happened again.
I'm only doing this because you said it will give me the power I need to bring back Kol.
This is it.
Good.
Tell the others they can go.
We'll be fine from here they said they're not leaving us till we get where we're going.
So far, so good.
Here.
Let me hold that little girl while you figure out where to cross.
Here, baby girl.
Aw.
I got you right here.
What do you think? Get across, get to the highway, steal a car, and just go.
You ok? It was a nice idea marry you, make our people strong, raise my baby girl surrounded by the pack.
- Hayley.
- This morning when I told them they could go, I never let you off the hook.
- Don't.
- I'm sick of other people making sacrifices for me, fighting my battles.
Hey.
That's what family is.
It's the people you're born to and the people you choose, who stand beside you when things are hard.
There ain't no place I'd rather be than right beside you, ok? (Bells playing Dahlia's melody) Sin eh-tey ex avan-ha vin tan-took koh.
Sin eh-tey ex avan-ha vin tan-took koh.
Sin eh-tey ex avan-ha vin tan-took koh.
Avan-ha vin tan-took koh.
I come all this way to collect what is owed to me, and whom should I find? Tante, please listen.
I betrayed my siblings so I could procure this child.
Sin eh-tey ex avan-ha vin tan-took koh.
I offer her to you now, and in exchange, I only ask that you release me from my obligation to you.
How curious that you should bargain with me for that which is already mine, but by all means, make your case for why you should be freed, and then I will decide whether to release you or kill you once and for all.
(Horn honks) Look what I got.
(Hayley): Ok.
Let's go.
(Indistinct chatter) (Vincent): Listen listen to me, people.
Listen to me, please, now.
This young lady serves as an opportunity for all of us.
Davina Claire is a remnant of the failed harvest ritual.
Let's not forget she aligned with the vampires.
How many witches died because of her? (Vincent): She was manipulated.
I mean, the ancestors forgave her.
They brought her back to life.
Now that's surely a sign She is no regent.
That role was meant for you.
And I already told you I ain't gonna do it.
You recuse yourself and instead offer up an inferior candidate.
- Hey! - Davina.
No.
I've stood here long enough.
My whole life, the witches of this city have lived in fear.
Vampires run wild, children are sacrificed.
Nobody took charge.
Now be honest.
Have any of you ever stood up to the vampires The Mikaelsons? No? Well, I have,and I have won.
Now I might be young, but the truth is I know better than anyone here what we're really up against, and I can help build a peace, or I can burn our enemies to the ground.
The question isn't whether or not I should be made regent.
The question is what the hell would you do without me? Sin eh-tey ex avan-ha vin tan-took koh.
(Dahlia): You surprise me, betraying the family you meant to coax to your side.
How very ruthless of you.
I had hoped that they would welcome me as a sister.
I was wrong.
Of course you were, you poor, little fool.
To think that Esther's wicked progeny could ever care for you.
They are known the world over for obscene acts of violence, and yet you sought them out instead of staying where you belonged with me.
I offered to protect you for all time, and you left me, and now it is you who is alone.
Sin eh-tey ex avan-ha vin tan-took koh.
Sin eh-tey ex avan-ha Who could love such a deceitful, little wretch? Sin eh-tey ex Marcel? - I'm sorry.
- What are you doing? What have you done? Elijah, now! And so the wheel of betrayal circles round once more.
You treacherous, little shrew! She's controlling you.
You have to fight her.
The only thing she did is pull out the dagger you stuck in my heart.
After all I have given you, this is how you repay me, a death trap rendered by those elements that compose my sole weakness? And even in this in you fail.
What do I sense? Sacred soil, viking ash, and the blood of a witch I loved? Not the witch I loved most, though.
Oh, Freya.
Did you think that your blood was the key to my demise? I only wanted to be free.
You pathetic girl.
How should I punish you? Oh.
I know.
I'll send you to bed early.
(Gasping) She will take everything from us.
You took everything when you broke our vow.
Perhaps I'll take something from you.
Unh! Aah! Elijah? Gia, be a sweetheart and take off your daylight ring.
No! No! I can't stop myself.
No! No! Noooo! Aah! No! (Screaming) No! No! You seem vexed, brother.
Wait until you see what I've got in store for Hayley.
Is that a hint of the fabled beast behind the red door? Come on, brother.
Let him out to play.
You should know better than to fight me in anger, for my anger is unending.
(Groaning) Klaus! You shouldn't have come here, Camille.
I came here because you need me.
You need me to tell you that this this is not you, and I know you are hurt, but please listen to me.
You are better than this.
(Dahlia): Is there a problem? Not at all.
Just another victim.
No.
Klaus, I know you won't hurt me.
I have known that from the second we met.
I trust you.
Then you are already lost.
No! Quite the sinister plot they had planned.
It would have failed in the end, though.
Just as well you came to your senses and sided with me.
Have you lost your mind? My mind is quite clear.
I just decided to purge it of treacherous barnacles.
Bastard! How could you? Actually, it was rather simple.
I just recalled what Elijah did to me and reciprocated ten-fold.
Be careful, or I'll apply the same equation to you.
Marcellus, keep Rebekah here.
If she tries to leave well, you do enjoy life as a mortal you can punish her by taking that life away.
Go to hell.
If by hell you mean somewhere you are betrayed by those you hold most dear, then it's from hell I've just come.
I didn't much care for it.
Do as you're told.
There's a good lad.
The child's magic is still cloaked.
I shall need your blood to track her.
No.
Nik, don't! (Dahlia): Mmm.
Mmm.
(Jackson): Keep your eyes peeled.
So the guys set up a perimeter.
We'll keep first watch.
You should get some rest.
No.
Hope's finally sleeping, Mary's watching her, which means that we have Ok.
What's on your mind? I want to decide where we're going.
I don't want to spend our life like this, always on the run, looking over our shoulders everywhere we go.
If that's what we got to do I know, and I'm not afraid.
I just I want something better for her, for us.
So what do you think? Montana, North Dakota, Washington? We can go wherever you want.
Jack.
Look.
I know that I don't have to say this, and I know that we're in a junkyard in the middle of nowhere, which is the least romantic place to say this for the first time, but I just want you to know that I love you.
(Rebekah): Think it through.
If I try to go, you kill me.
If I remove these That is the same as trying to go.
Can't you fight the compulsion? He bled the vervain out of my body.
Maybe this is all part of Nik's twisted revenge.
He doesn't mean for me to die.
He wants you to kill this body so I wake up in the original, robbing me of my one chance to have everything I want children, my promise to Kol.
Then we don't give him what he wants, all right? Don't run, and I won't hurt you.
I won't let that witch get her hands on my niece, which means we're gonna have to do this the hard way.
(Footsteps) What about Alaska? I could live in Alaska.
(Man screaming) (Groaning) Good evening, crescents.
It will come as no surprise to learn that things will not be ending well for you.
Go back inside.
Get Hope and Mary out of here.
- I can help you.
- I'll be right behind you.
- Jack.
- Just get Hope and run.
Let's take him.
(Shouting) (Grunting) Agh! You think you can defeat me with your toys? We're just getting warmed up.
So Hayley runs, and you hold the line.
How valiant.
Not too bright, though.
You do remember our last somewhat one-sided altercation.
This ain't gonna be like last time.
What about Jack? He and the others will meet us up the road.
Ohh! It's her Dahlia.
All the more reason to go.
(Crying) No.
I'm not gonna teach my daughter that it's ok to leave the ones you love to die.
Take her and get her as far away from here as you can.
It's ok.
It's ok, baby.
Mama's gonna catch up with you real quick, ok? What about you? I'm gonna rip that bitch apart.
That's not happening! End of discussion! Think about it.
Why did mother want to destroy my true body? Answer to ensure I could never go back, meaning if something happens to this one my spirit's default is to jump back to the original.
Yeah, but do you really want to bet your life on that? Of course, I don't want to! That's part of Nik's maniacal plan.
He's not leaving me a choice.
Oh! What if he just wants you dead? No.
However angry he is, I know my brother.
Endless torment, fine, but he will never let me die.
So all we have to do is just play this out.
I try to go, you kill me, and then I wake up in my true body.
Don't make me to do this, all right? I don't want to hurt you, but if you don't back down, I won't be able to stop myself.
Marcel Gerard, you really do care for me.
Well, the least I can do is save you from the awful act itself.
(Shouting, grunting) Ah.
You have gotten stronger.
I reckon you've gone from field mouse to lapdog.
Come on then.
(Dahlia): Enough.
Why is she with you, Klaus? Unlike some, he's doing what is best for his daughter.
I'm gonna skin you alive! Aah! (Bones cracking) What are you doing to us? (Klaus): Oh, this? No.
This was my idea, stealing from Marcel the Crescent curse he once used on your pack.
Dahlia was all too happy to make the necessary adjustments to accommodate your hybrid nature.
Now you will be trapped in wolf form, save for the full moon, leaving you very little time to cause any further mischief.
Aah! And because of the unification ritual linking you to your pack, now they will share your fate, Queen.
Unh! (Bones cracking) (Mary groaning) (Growling) (Hayley): Please.
Please don't do this, Klaus.
She's gonna steal our baby.
It was you who tried to steal my child, and for that, you will suffer.
Aah! Aah! (Screaming) Fellow witches of New Orleans, the ancestors call us here today to bear witness as I accept the role of regent to our people.
Should any among you have cause to argue my acceptance of this role, now is your final chance to speak.
Then it's settled.
Not too long ago, I was sacrificed by own coven.
Feeling betrayed, I sided with vampires against the very witches who lied to me, but tonight, I say let the past be the past.
From now on, we stand together against anyone who dare hold us down, even Klaus Mikaelson himself.
Here and now begins the time of the witches.
(Whoosh) Hey.
Daddy's here.
It's all gonna be ok, I promise.
(Dahlia): And there she is.
Such a beautiful child.
No! (Whispering) Camille, do exactly as I say.
(Dahlia): I want to thank you for your hand in procuring her for me.
It must not have been easy betraying your family.
I will not see my daughter handed over like the spoils of some war.
To that end, I remind you of your promise.
You will protect and mentor Hope, drawing from her only what power you require to keep her safe.
(Groans) (Gasps) I will bond her to me first.
Once I can channel Hope's power, I will be able to keep her safe from all harm, always under my protection.
I think not.
(Cami): Elijah? Elijah, you have to listen to me.
He got in my head, he spoke to me.
You offered an alliance that would benefit my daughter, and now you wish to link to her, even though you yourself still suffer from that sleep spell.
I will not lose my daughter to your affliction.
I will use her power to free myself as I said.
And if you fail or if Hope is not strong enough? She is, after all, but a child.
I will not condemn her to your fate, not when there is so obvious an alternative.
This, all of this, it's a trick.
You've lost your mind.
He has lost his mind.
He needs her to trust him so he can do what he needs to do.
(Klaus): If you require power to be immortal without the need to sleep for centuries, then why not channel one who already has eternal life? Bond yourself to me, the immortal hybrid.
Once your sleep spell is broken, then and only then may you link yourself to Hope.
He had to make it look convincing.
What To to to what possible end? He told me her secret.
I know how we can kill Dahlia.
