With Esther and Mikael a looming threat over their heads, how will Klaus, Rebekah, and Elijah keep Hope safe? And will Dahlia come to collect?

The Quarter is in quite the state of chaos, what with Mikael and Esther running around trying to exact revenge on their children, the wolves staging a marriage that would free them all from needing the rings to control their shifting, and then there’s this looming Dahlia threat. Turmoil is definitely an apt word to describe it.

We can’t help but be a bit curious as to just which storylines will be wrapped up in The Originals season 2 mid-season finale tonight, and which will prove pervasive beasts well into the second half of season 2.

Our money is on the Originals siblings neutralizing their parents only to find out that Dahlia is worse than any of them could ever imagine, but that’s just our two cents.

Check out these clips from the episode and get yourself pumped and ready for The Originals season 2, episode 9, “The Map of Moments.”

Sneak Peeks

Time for a little flashback in which we see Klaus and Marcel catch Kol in the act of… thieving?

And the second tells us that even Elijah isn’t sure what is going on in his head, let alone what happened at that diner last episode.

Can’t watch live tonight?

Have no fear! If you find yourself unable to catch the episode live, you can watch The Originals season 2, episode 9 online. You can catch it on the CW’s website usually within 24 hours of the initial airing. Also, Hulu Plus subscribers can also catch up on Hulu, as the episodes are usually posted six hours or so after airing, and a little later in the week for non-subscribers.

The easiest method is always to set your DVR, but you may also be able to catch The Originals by checking out the OnDemand section from your local cable provider. The OnDemand option is usually available the next day.
