We were lucky enough to get a chance to check out The Originals season 5 premiere a little early, so here are five little tidbits to tide you over til Where You Left Your Heart airs on Wednesday.
Has that final bit of excitement moved into your soul, yet? Are you starting to count down hours, minutes, and seconds til Klaus and company are back on your TV? Well, then, here are a few not-so-spoilery tidbits about The Originals final season premiere that hopefully will only ramp up your excitement a little bit more.
1. Surprise, surprise: Mikaelsons are not good at rule following.
This doesn’t qualify as a spoiler because it could apply to just about everyone on this show with the surname Mikaelson. They’ve never been a rule-following type of family, so it should come as no shock that with all these new rules about staying spread across the globe, not everyone is falling into line.
2. Witches have their own Skype. And the connection can be just as unpredictable.
In one of the cuter moments from the premiere, Freya does come witchy-woo-woo and poof, the witch version of Skype has her astral projecting herself across the globe. And yes, it comes with its own connectivity problems, so don’t get too jealous and trade in your high speed internet for an ancient grimoire anytime soon.
3. Some love stories are doomed to repeat themselves.
We’re going to leave this one ominous and vague. There are a few couples, both former and current, that have some interactions in the premiere, and one pair seems to be stuck like a broken record. We’re crossing our fingers that this pair gets their act together before we say goodbye to the Mikaelsons for good, but season 5 isn’t starting well for everyone.
4. Bloodbaths are not limited to fight scenes.
Yeah. Someone takes a literal blood bath in the premiere, and they’re not too happy about it. Could it be a symptom of a new big bad moving into New Orleans? Could it be a complication from some new skin condition that’s plaguing the long-dead? Could it be a symptom of that previously mentioned rule-breaking? Find out Wednesday!
5. There’s a new accent in town… and we LIKE it.
There are a few new characters making appearances in the premiere, one of whom is a dashing gentlemen after the heart of badass momma Hayley Marshall. He comes equipped with a swoon-worthy accent that I don’t think we’ve heard much of on The Originals so far.
