The long wait is over folks. The 42 day drought has come to an end because The Originals season 1 returns to your televisions tonight with episode 10, “The Casket Girls.”
That hiatus seemed more torturous than usual right? It wasn’t just us? Phew! Anyway, The Originals season 1 is back with style tonight as the series returns complete with a festival, which we know is code for cool costumes and crazy rituals. Need a refresher as to where we left off?
When we last saw the Original family…
Marcel and Rebekah had teamed up to take down Klaus together, only for Marcel to have to pledge his loyalty to Klaus when the plan failed, putting a Grand-Canyon-sized gap between the reconciled former flames. It may also be good to remember that Rebekah is also holding a secret trump card that could turn Klaus on Marcel at any moment. We have a feeling that may come into play sometime soon.
Hayley has been forcibly moved into Klaus’ bachelor pad, supposedly in an effort to keep her safe, but we all know Klaus just wants to make sure he can use her as his ultimate trump card for all things Elijah.
Speaking of Elijah, the nobleman spent most of the last episode saving Hayley’s werewolf kin from Klaus’ decree that the vampires were free to hunt them at their leisure, only to have a brief moment on a balcony in the quarter with Hayley. He then went to Klaus and apologized for his accusations, motivating Klaus to invite Elijah and Rebekah to join him at their childhood home whenever they felt motivated.
Lastly, Davina had just discovered that Marcel was lying to her to keep her under his control, motivating her to trust Hayley rather than remain under the new Klaus/Marcel regime.
Now that we all remember what was happening when we last saw the Original family (and friends), check out what we have to look forward to in tonight’s episode.
The synopsis for ‘The Originals’ season 1, episode 10, ‘The Casket Girls’ is:
TAKING BACK POWER — As the French Quarter prepares for its annual celebration of the Casket Girls Festival, Cami suffers through as Davina attempts to free her of Klaus’ mind compulsion. Elijah and Marcel form an unlikely alliance as Klaus sets his plan in motion to get Davina back. Once it’s known that Davina is missing, Sophie gets in on the hunt to track her down. Meanwhile, Hayley is forced to make a tough decision after receiving an unexpected phone call, and Rebekah sets her own plan in motion when she enlists the help of someone from Marcel’s past.

Davina is taking matters into her own hands, and we are happy to see her standing up to everyone trying to use her as leverage.
