Finally off it’s winter hiatus and The Originals definitely came back with a bang! Check out our recap of tonight’s episode.
The witch is back!
– Episode starts with Rebekah narrating a flashback story about how girls from France would come to New Orleans to marry an important gentleman. They were called Casket girls. But the men weren’t gentlemen, so Rebekah saved them.
– The celebration lives on as a celebration of costumes and fun to celebrate women.
– Davina is still working on getting the compulsion out from Cami.
– Haley is dressing up in a ‘Casket Girl’ costume but has no where to go. Elijah offers to take her somewhere but she declines.
– Marcel tried to hit on Rebekah but she’s all, “uh uh girlfriend go away”
– However, Klaus discovers that Davina is gone.
– Cami starts to remember everything! YAY!
– Haley and Rebekah resolve to stick together because Klaus, Elijah and Marcel are all on the lookout for Davina.
– Sophie and her witch friend realize that Davina isn’t with Marcel, which means they can do magic. If they can do magic then they can find Davina and fix everything. Oh no!
– However, Davina still senses this and Cami is all, “omfg we have to run, oh noes.”
Snap, snap!
– While trying to figure out what to do next and who to go to, Cami finds out her uncle knows everything. Even about her brother being hexed by witches. She mad, bro.
– Haley gets a call from Sophie, who reveals she knows which bloodline Haley is from. In fact, Sophie’s family cast the curse on Haley’s family (the one that keeps them in wolf form) and if Haley gives Sophie the remains of an old witch-friend of Elijah (aka his old lover, Celeste) she will undo the curse.
– The Casket Girls celebration is on in New Orleans. Cami and Davina are in the streets trying to get out of New Orleans unnoticed, while everyone else is also in the streets hunting them.
– Klaus compels Timothy (Davina’s crush) and calls Josh to tell him to get Davina to him or else Tim dies.
– Cami and Davina get to the church and a suddenly a bunch of witches start attacking them. However, Davina levitates them all and kills them! SNAP GIRL. (No, literally. She snapped their necks all at once)
Fiddler Violinist on the roof.
– Haley starts going through Elijah’s old diaries to see where he buried Celeste, an old witch lover of his.
– Davina tells Josh she’s going to actually kill Klaus, and Josh tells Davina she better go all out. He doesn’t tell her that if she does kill him Josh will die too. Rebekah sees this and comes up with a clever plan, as she does, to help save Davina (because let’s face it, no one attempts to kill Klaus and survives).
– Klaus puts Timothy up on a ledge on top of Klaus’ house as he plays the violin (Klaus: drama queen).
– Davina goes to meet them and they ask why she ran away from them.
– However, Davina don’t play games. She starts making Klaus do the wolf-wolf and he starts to turn (into his wolf form) but she incapacitates him before he does.
– Elijah then tries to help calm Davina down but she’s all “ooh no girl don’t try to play me, foo'” She then forces him to drown in his own blood.
– Finally, Davina confronts Marcel. She doesn’t like that he turned on her. He says he cares, and she starts to believe BUT…
– Rebekah stabs Marcel with a metal poker and tells Davina they need a girls chat.
NEVER accept water from a cute boy.
– Rebekah got Josh to come to the house as leverage against Davina.
– Ah, but Rebekah doesn’t want to hurt people to get leverage, she gets Timothy off the ledge and lets Josh go.
– Meanwhile, Haley calls and tells Sophie that Elijah buried Celeste under two oak saplings (200 years ago though, so they’re not saplings anymore).
– Sophie does a spell to find exactly where the body is and it worked. She starts digging.
– Rebekah takes Davina to The Garden where Marcel puts all the vampires to prove Davina can trust her, not Marcel.
– Tim gives Davina a drink of water and turns out he was COMPELLED to do that (it’s poisoned, duh) and after he does he starts having some sort of heart attack.
– Davina falls down (oh nooooes).
Vampire Bro Code: Don’t mess with family
– Cami wakes up after getting attacked in the church with Davina and confronts her uncle. He says he was protecting her, but Cami says he’s just as bad as all the other monsters.
– Rebekah calls Klaus because Davina is dying but he won’t give Rebekah the cure.
– When Marcel and Elijah found out what Klaus did they tell him they made an alliance with each other. They don’t like what Klaus did and they’ll turn against him if he doesn’t right his wrongs. They’re basically all “aw hell nawwww bro that’s MESSED up!”
– Marcel worked with the witch who tried to kill Davina and Elijah points out that she was family to Marcel, what he did wasn’t cool.
– Davina wakes up, but Tim doesn’t. She tells him to wake up, like Rose told Jack to wake up in Titanic. He dead, girl. Like, dead dead, not The Originals almost-kinda-sorta-not-really dead dead.
Cami is the badass on the block.
– Rebekah brings Davina back to her room at Klaus’ house.
– Elijah sees paintings that Davina did when she wasn’t sensing magic, learns she called them Evil. Creeeepy.
– Cami confronts Klaus about how she knows everything. Says that if he hurts Davina or Josh in any way she will expose him to the world. You go, girl!
– Rebekah is telling a tale about how men suck to Thierry, and makes an alliance with him to take New Orleans out from under her brothers’ noses. She has an alliance with Davina too.
– Elijah thinks that Davina’s random paintings are a premonition of something sinister coming. He puts all of them together and it’s Celeste’s face. OH GIRL.
– Sophie is currently digging up Celeste, and ignores Haley’s frantic warning calls.
