The Originals-S1E1-1080P_360P
Transcript
00:00Over the course of my long life, I have come to believe that we are bound forever to those with whom we share blood.
00:09And while we may not choose our family, that bond can be our greatest strength, or our deepest regret.
00:18This unfortunate truth has haunted me for as long as I can recall.
00:26What do you make of that?
00:27No banner, no flag, loaded in out of nowhere.
00:32A miracle ship.
00:35Why is it just sitting out there?
00:39I suppose we ought to find out.
00:54Where in hell is everyone?
00:55Deserted, which makes everything in the hold legally forfeit. Take what suits you.
01:04What do you make of that?
01:11Open it up.
01:11What the hell?
01:21What the hell?
01:21What the hell?
01:25Hello.
01:43Hmm.
01:46Lovely to see such a handsome face after a long journey.
01:50Can I eat him, brother?
01:51I'd rather you didn't.
01:56There's no need to be afraid.
01:59You'll do exactly as I say.
02:01You'll remember nothing.
02:04I will remember nothing.
02:06We've had a very long journey,
02:07wherein which, unfortunately, we lost all of our crew.
02:10Therefore, I would ask you to kindly transport our belongings to the shore.
02:14What kind of hell demons are you?
02:16We're vampires, darling.
02:18The original vampires.
02:21Rebecca, Elijah,
02:24our brothers Cole and Finn, may they rest in peace.
02:27Are we saving the best for last?
02:29And our half-brother Niklaus.
02:33Ignore him, he's a beast.
02:36All right.
02:40We fled Europe and survived the seas.
02:43Would you rather I arrive hungry on the shores of our new homeland?
02:46Niklaus, your manners are, as always, without equal.
02:51Sir, would you be so good as to tell us where it is that we have landed?
02:56The French colony of Louisiana.
02:59Off the shores of a town they have named New Orleans.
03:01Well, thank you so much.
03:02Oh, I do recommend that you find yourself further assistance for the luggage.
03:10My sincere apologies.
03:11This land is your land.
03:33This land is my land.
03:38So what brings you to the big easy?
03:44I used to live here.
03:46Really?
03:47When?
03:48Oh, feels like a hundred years ago.
03:50I just moved here myself.
03:52What brought you back?
03:53Well, my brother's here somewhere.
03:54I'm afraid he might have gotten himself into a bit of a bind.
03:57You say that like it's a common occurrence.
03:59Well, he's complicated.
04:00Defiant, ill-mannered, little temperamental.
04:09See, we don't share the same father.
04:11Of course, that never bothered me, but my brother resents it deeply.
04:15Never felt like he belonged.
04:17All told, he has a long history of getting himself into trouble.
04:20And I'm guessing you have a long history of getting him out of it.
04:24What kind of bind is your brother in?
04:25He believes there are people in this town that are conspiring against him.
04:29Wow.
04:30Narcissistic and paranoid.
04:33Sorry.
04:34Bartender with a grad degree in psychology.
04:36Total cliche.
04:38Listen, Camille, I'm looking for someone who might shed some light on his current predicament.
04:44She works here at Jane Ann Debrouille.
04:46Any idea where I might find her?
04:47No, but I know someone who might.
04:51Welcome to New Orleans and the crown jewel of the Crescent City, the French Quarter.
04:57Jazz and jambalaya, romance, poetry, not to mention the things that go up in the night.
05:05Monsters that feed off human blood, vengeful spirits of the dead, and our personal favorite,
05:12the witches.
05:13Here, we have the voodoo shop, Jardin Green.
05:16Go on.
05:17Browse for a hex.
05:19Yeah.
05:21Are you going to continue following me, Elijah, or do you want to talk?
05:25You know who I am.
05:26Original vampire always wears a suit.
05:29You and your family are famous amongst the witches, especially with your brother back in town.
05:35Well, Niklas is here because they learned that a witch was conspiring against him,
05:38someone by the name of Jane Ann Debrouille.
05:40Well, if he's looking for Jane Ann, he's a little late.
05:47Are you telling me she's dead?
05:52Come on.
05:54Her sister Sophie's going to want to talk to you.
05:56Go on.
05:56Go on.
05:57Go on.
05:57Take it away.
06:05Love you.
06:10What?
06:10Bye.
06:11Bye.
06:12Bye.
06:13Bye.
06:16Bye.
06:17Bye.
06:19Bye.
06:20Bye.
06:22Bye.
06:23Bye.
06:24Bye.
06:24Bye.
06:25Bye.
06:27That's Jane Ann.
06:30Killed in public for anyone to find.
06:32Only people who come around here are the witches.
06:35Now her sister has come to take her body.
06:38Her spirit can't rest until it's been properly interned in the cemetery.
06:43Please tell me that my brother had nothing to do with this.
06:46No. Jane Ann died because she got caught doing magic.
06:50You mean she got caught doing magic?
06:56You want to know who killed Jane Ann?
06:58You're about to get your first glimpse of Marcel in action.
07:00The vampire Marcel?
07:01Things have changed since your family left town.
07:03Marcel has changed.
07:10I'm asking you, stay.
07:12Hayden, if Marcel finds out that a witch
07:14lured the originals back into town, my people will be slaughtered.
07:19Well, well, well.
07:21What have we here?
07:23I gotta tell you, Soph, this street corner
07:25has not proven the luckiest spot for your family tonight.
07:30Not half an hour ago, we had to teach your sister a little lesson.
07:34We're putting her to rest, Marcel.
07:36Leave us alone.
07:38I never said you could move the body.
07:40Matter of fact,
07:41I left it here for a reason.
07:43Send a message.
07:45If anybody is thinking of joining some kind of rebellion,
07:49my rules state that witches can't practice magic in the quarter.
07:52And yet, a little birdie informed me
07:54that Jane Ann was cooking up something magically delicious.
08:00Oh, yeah.
08:01While I have you, quick Q&A.
08:03My old friend, the hybrid Klaus,
08:06he just happened to show up out of the blue
08:08asking for, of all people,
08:10Jane Ann.
08:11Any idea why?
08:12I don't know.
08:15Witches don't get involved in vampire business.
08:17Hmm.
08:18That would be pretty stupid.
08:20That's for sure.
08:23Tell you what.
08:25Go back to the restaurant,
08:27cook up some of that famous gumbo,
08:30and keep those tourists happy.
08:32Take the body.
08:33What?
08:33No, stop!
08:35Stop!
08:35Marcel!
08:36I'm gonna hold on to your sister's body
08:38in case maybe you remember why Klaus is here.
08:41Marcel, please.
08:42Her body won't be at peace.
08:44Not my problem.
08:48You mean to tell me after all these years,
08:50Marcel is alive and well?
08:52Quite.
08:52Our brother seems to have wandered into a war zone.
08:54And I haven't been able to find him.
08:57Marcel, who Klaus sired and brought up beneath his own wing,
08:59now rules a menagerie of savage vampires,
09:02running wild,
09:03killing in public for any human to come upon.
09:05Witches are held in subjugation.
09:07I doubt any Klaus had any idea what he was walking into.
09:10Sorry, what was that?
09:11I stopped paying attention at our brother.
09:13Rebecca.
09:13Our hateful, traitorous bastard of a brother,
09:17who's negated any sympathy I once had for him
09:19by his repeated efforts to ensure
09:20neither you nor I no happiness
09:22outside of his own selfish universe.
09:24Always and forever, Rebecca.
09:25That is what we once swore to each other.
09:27Consider this me calling takebacks?
09:29Oh, you've called takebacks
09:30dozens of times over the centuries,
09:32and yet when our father found us
09:34and chased us from this very city...
09:35I may be old, Elijah, but I'm hardly senile.
09:38I know very well I stuck with Klaus.
09:40And not three years later,
09:41he stuck a silver dagger in my chest
09:42and sent me into a magical slumber for 90 years.
09:44Do you know why?
09:45Because I had the audacity
09:47to try and live my life on my own without him.
09:49Enough.
09:50I believe our brother's in trouble.
09:51So whatever's going on
09:52between Marcel and the witches,
09:53it's dire enough that they risk
09:55bringing an original back to town.
09:56The witches have lured him here.
09:58I'd like to know why.
09:58Oh, you got me into this, Jane.
10:24Give me the strength to finish it.
10:26The door's work, you know.
10:47You're doing magic?
10:50I'm praying to my dead sister.
10:52Go ahead.
10:52Pay your respects.
10:54Don't make this a thing, Sophie.
10:56The hybrid was looking for Jane Ann.
10:58Marcel wants to know why.
11:00I'd say ask her yourself,
11:02but I guess you can't sing
11:03as Marcel killed her.
11:04I'm Elijah.
11:10I'm Elijah.
11:28You heard of me?
11:33Yes.
11:35So why don't you tell me
11:37what business your family has
11:38with my brother?
11:38This is sacred ground,
11:52which means vampires have to be invited in.
12:01But since I'm desperate,
12:02come on in.
12:03We can talk freely here.
12:07And I suggest you start talking.
12:10What did your sister want with me, Klaus?
12:14Isn't it obvious?
12:15We have a vampire problem,
12:17and we need help.
12:18Marcel has an army backing him.
12:21The witches have been trying to fight back.
12:23We haven't had much luck
12:24until my sister, Jane Ann,
12:26met a girl,
12:26a werewolf passing through the quarter
12:29from a small town in Virginia.
12:32She had a special connection
12:34to your brother.
12:35What kind of connection?
12:37Apparently,
12:38they spent some time together.
12:40One thing led to another,
12:41and now,
12:43this special werewolf girl,
12:44she's pregnant,
12:45and the father of the child
12:47she's carrying
12:48is your brother, Klaus.
12:50It's impossible.
12:52Nothing's impossible,
12:54especially not when it comes
12:55to your brother.
12:56Think about it.
12:57They call him the hybrid,
12:59right?
13:01Bring her out!
13:19Who the hell are you?
13:25Give us a moment, please.
13:33So have they been holding you here
13:35against your will?
13:37They lured me out to the bayou
13:39and grabbed me,
13:41and they did all these
13:42weird witchy tests.
13:45Not that I understand
13:46how this could happen.
13:48I mean,
13:49vampires are dead.
13:51They can't have children.
13:52Perhaps if you knew
13:53my brother's story
13:54might explain
13:54how this is possible.
13:56Yeah.
13:56If I may.
13:58What are you doing?
13:59Relax.
14:02If you open your mind to me,
14:04I can show you.
14:05In the beginning,
14:13our family was human.
14:15Thousand years ago now.
14:17Come on, Henrik,
14:18our brother's advising again.
14:19Although our mother
14:20dabbled in the dark arts,
14:22we were largely just a family
14:23trying to survive
14:23in a time when it was
14:24quite difficult to do so.
14:27And for better or worse,
14:29we were happy.
14:31And it's, however,
14:33until one night
14:34our youngest brother
14:35was killed
14:36by our village's
14:37greatest threat.
14:38Father!
14:41Mendic transformed themselves
14:43into wolves
14:43during a full moon.
14:46Our family was devastated.
14:48None more than Niklaus.
14:51Desperate to protect
14:52the rest of us,
14:53our father forced our mother
14:55to call upon her black magic
14:56in order to make us stronger.
14:58Drink!
14:59Thus, the first vampires
15:04were born.
15:06But with this speed,
15:07this strength,
15:08this immortality
15:09came terrible hunger.
15:13And no one felt this hunger
15:14more than Niklaus.
15:21When he killed for the first time,
15:22we knew what he truly was.
15:24Niklaus!
15:29What is happening to me?
15:33No!
15:34Don't!
15:35Don't!
15:36Mother!
15:38It hurts!
15:44He's a beast.
15:46An abomination.
15:47He wasn't just a vampire.
15:54He was also a werewolf.
15:58That's how the werewolf curse works.
16:01It isn't activated
16:03until you take it alive.
16:04Niklaus was the result
16:05of an indiscretion
16:06our mother had hidden
16:07from us all.
16:08An affair
16:09with a werewolf
16:10like yourself.
16:12Infuriated by this betrayal,
16:14my father forced our mother
16:15to cast a spell
16:15that would suppress
16:16Klaus' werewolf side,
16:18denying him any connection
16:19with his true self.
16:22Elijah!
16:23Elijah!
16:24Hold him down!
16:25Brother!
16:26Please!
16:27Don't let them do this to me!
16:29Do it now, boy!
16:31Now!
16:35I hate me.
16:39Your dad was a dick.
16:40I'm Hayley.
16:44By the way,
16:45you should probably know my name
16:48if you're gonna tell me
16:49your whole life story.
16:51I mean, I know yours.
16:52Your family is legendary.
16:55Your brother's a notorious side-throw,
16:58who I slept with.
17:00Classic me.
17:01I cannot excuse his behavior,
17:03but you must understand
17:05that our father haunted him,
17:07haunted us,
17:08for centuries.
17:09Every time we found
17:10a moment of happiness,
17:11we were forced to flee.
17:12Even here?
17:13In New Orleans.
17:14Oh, we were happiest of all.
17:17Not long after,
17:17Niklaus broke the spell
17:18which prevented him
17:19from becoming the hybrid.
17:21He defeated our father.
17:23I thought this would make him happy.
17:26He was angrier than ever.
17:29I wonder if perhaps this baby
17:32might be a way for my brother
17:34to find happiness.
17:35a way to save him
17:37from himself.
17:41I'm glad you feel that way
17:42because we need your help.
17:45What precisely is it that you want
17:46and what does it have to do
17:47with this young woman?
17:48We want to run Marcel
17:49and his vampires out of town.
17:52Klaus is the key.
17:53Everything Marcel knows
17:54about being a vampire,
17:56he learned from Klaus.
17:57Marcel trusts him,
17:59looks up to him,
17:59and he won't see
18:01the betrayal coming.
18:02Yes, well, as I'm sure
18:03you're aware,
18:03my brother Niklaus
18:04doesn't like to be told
18:05what to do.
18:06That's why I brought you here.
18:08Marcel drove the werewolves
18:10out of town decades ago.
18:12Do you really think
18:14he's going to welcome
18:15a hybrid baby
18:16to the neighborhood?
18:19Convince Klaus to help us
18:20and no one has to know
18:22about the newest member
18:22of the original family.
18:24That sounds remarkably
18:25like blackmail.
18:26Like I said,
18:28I'm desperate.
18:34Well then,
18:36I have my work
18:38cut out for me,
18:38don't I?
18:55Evening, Elijah.
18:56Niklaus?
18:58What an entirely
18:59unwelcome surprise.
19:01And what an entirely
19:02unsurprising welcoming.
19:04Come with me.
19:05I'm not going anywhere
19:06until I find out
19:07who's conspiring against me.
19:10I believe I just
19:11found that out for you.
19:14No, it's impossible.
19:17I said the same thing myself.
19:18This is a lie.
19:20You're all lying.
19:21Vampires cannot procreate.
19:23But werewolves can.
19:25Magic made you a vampire.
19:27But you were born a werewolf.
19:29You're the original hybrid.
19:31The first of your kind.
19:33And this pregnancy is
19:34one of nature's loopholes.
19:36You've been with someone else.
19:41Admit it!
19:41Hey!
19:42I've spent days held captive
19:44in a freaking alligator bayou
19:45because they think that I'm carrying
19:47some magical miracle baby.
19:48Don't you think I would have fessed up
19:50if it wasn't yours?
19:51My sister gave her life
19:52to perform the spell she needed
19:54to confirm this pregnancy.
19:56Because of Jane Ann's sacrifice,
19:58the lives of this girl and her baby
19:59are now controlled by us.
20:01We can keep them safe.
20:04Or we can kill them.
20:07If you don't help us take down Marcel.
20:10So help me.
20:11Hayley won't live long enough
20:12to see her first maternity dress.
20:14Wait, what?
20:15Enough of this.
20:16If you want Marcel dead,
20:17he's dead.
20:17I'll do it myself.
20:18No.
20:19We can't.
20:20Not yet.
20:21We have a clear plan
20:22that we need to follow
20:23and there are rules.
20:24How dare you command me?
20:35Threaten me
20:36with what you wrongfully perceive
20:38to be my weaknesses.
20:39This is a pathetic deception.
20:42I won't hear any more lies.
20:44Niklaus.
20:52Listen.
20:54I won't hear any more lies.
21:24Kill her.
21:46And the baby.
21:48What do I care?
21:51Screw this.
21:52I'm out of here.
21:53No one touches the girl.
22:00I'll fix this.
22:10Niklaus?
22:11It's a trick, Elijah.
22:12No, brother.
22:13It's a gift.
22:15It's your chance.
22:15It's our chance.
22:17To what?
22:18To start over.
22:19Take back everything we lost.
22:20Everything that was taken from us.
22:23Niklaus,
22:23our own parents came to despise us.
22:25Our family was ruined.
22:26We were ruined.
22:27And since then,
22:28all that you have ever wanted,
22:29all that we have ever wanted,
22:32was a family.
22:36I will not be manipulated.
22:38So they're manipulating you.
22:40So they're manipulating you.
22:41So what?
22:42With them,
22:43this girl and her child,
22:44your child,
22:47live.
22:50I'm gonna kill every last one of them.
22:54And then what?
22:55Then you return to Mystic Falls
22:56to resume your life as the hated one,
22:58as the evil hybrid?
22:59Is it so important to you
23:00that people quake with fear
23:01at the sound of your name?
23:02People quake with fear
23:03because I have the power
23:04to make them afraid.
23:05What will this child offer me?
23:07Will it guarantee me power?
23:08Family is power, Niklaus.
23:11Love, loyalty,
23:12that's power.
23:13This is what we swore to one another
23:14a thousand years ago
23:15before life tore away
23:16what little humanity you had left.
23:18Before ego,
23:19before anger,
23:20before paranoia
23:21created in this person before me.
23:24Someone I can barely even recognize
23:25as my own brother.
23:29This is us.
23:31The original family.
23:35And we remain together
23:36always and forever.
23:41I am asking you to stay here.
23:43I will help you
23:44and I will stand by you.
23:46I will be your brother.
23:48We will build a home here together.
23:51So save this girl.
23:55Save your child.
23:59No.
24:08No.
24:17Marcel and his vampires
24:18are out of control.
24:20Something had to be done.
24:21And the solution
24:22is to bring in more vampires?
24:24These aren't just any vampires, Agnes.
24:26They're the originals.
24:27What makes you think
24:28you can control the hybrid?
24:30She can't.
24:36Not entirely certain
24:37that I can either.
24:39But now that your coven
24:40has drawn his ire,
24:41I have a question.
24:43What prevents my brother
24:44from murdering you
24:44instead of cooperating?
24:45Ow!
24:54What the hell?
25:01The spell my sister performed,
25:03the one that got her killed,
25:05it didn't just confirm the pregnancy.
25:06It linked me to Haley.
25:08So anything that happens to me
25:10happens to her,
25:11which means her life
25:12is in my hands.
25:15Klaus may not care
25:16about his own child,
25:18but it's very clear
25:19what it already means to you.
25:22If I have to hurt Haley,
25:24or worse,
25:26to ensure that I have your attention,
25:28I will.
25:29You would dare threaten an original.
25:35I have nothing to lose.
25:38You have until midnight
25:39to get Klaus to change his mind.
25:42Hey, man.
25:53What'd you run off to?
25:59Someone put you in the mood.
26:01What can I do?
26:02What you can do
26:02is you can tell me
26:03what this thing is
26:04you have with the witches.
26:06You know I owe you
26:07everything I got,
26:08but I'm afraid
26:09I have to draw the line
26:10on this one.
26:11This is my business.
26:13I control the witches
26:14in my town.
26:15Let's just leave it at that.
26:17Your town.
26:18Damn straight.
26:21That's funny,
26:22because when I left
26:23a hundred years ago,
26:24you were just a pathetic
26:26little scrapper
26:26still trembling
26:27from the lashes
26:28of the whips
26:28of those who would
26:29keep you down.
26:30And now look at you,
26:31master of your domain,
26:34prince of the city.
26:38I'd like to know how.
26:40Why?
26:41Jealous?
26:46Hey, man,
26:47I get it.
26:48Three hundred years ago,
26:49you helped build
26:50a backwater penal colony
26:51into something.
26:52You started it,
26:53but then you left.
26:54Actually,
26:55you ran from it.
26:57I saw it through.
26:58Look around.
26:59Vampires rule this city now.
27:01I got rid of the werewolves.
27:03I even found a way
27:04to shut down the witches.
27:05The blood never stops flowing,
27:07and the party never ends.
27:09You want to pass on through?
27:10You want to stay a while?
27:12Great.
27:13What's mine is yours,
27:14but it is mine.
27:16My home,
27:18my family,
27:19my rules.
27:22And if someone breaks
27:24those rules,
27:25they die.
27:27Mercy is for the weak.
27:28You taught me that, too.
27:30And I'm not the prince
27:32of the quarter,
27:33friend.
27:34I'm the king!
27:35Show me some respect.
27:58Your friend will be dead
28:00by the weekend.
28:02Which means
28:03I've broken one of your rules.
28:06And yet I cannot be killed.
28:11I am immortal.
28:16Who has the power now,
28:19friend?
28:23He's willing to give up everything.
28:25Come on, Elijah.
28:26Does that really surprise you?
28:28I can already see it.
28:29He's spiraling.
28:31He's lashing out in blind rage.
28:33You know the last time
28:33I saw him like this,
28:34if it lasted 200 years.
28:36Then leave him to his temper tantrum
28:37and come home.
28:39With any luck,
28:40this misadventure
28:41will allow us a reprieve
28:42from all of his insanity.
28:44He was so close.
28:45When he heard the baby's heartbeat,
28:46I could see it
28:47in his eyes.
28:48He...
28:49He wanted...
28:50He could almost taste happiness.
28:54And now his temper has destroyed it.
28:57Even if I was to return him to sanity,
28:59he'd just lost Marcel's trust.
29:03So...
29:03I'm almost out of time
29:04to get the girl.
29:05Get her?
29:07Have you lost your mind?
29:08Are we running an orphanage now?
29:09Say what you will about Niklaus.
29:11On my life,
29:13I'm not letting anything happen
29:14to that baby.
29:16You find him,
29:17and then you call me.
29:18Don't worry.
29:19I know how to deal with Klaus.
29:21Is that so?
29:24Please elaborate.
29:27Elijah Michelson.
29:28I got it.
29:31It's all good.
29:40It's time we had a little chat.
29:48Well, if you're gonna talk, talk.
29:51I got things to do.
29:52Oh, my.
29:52You have grown quite confident
29:53over the last century, haven't you?
29:55Me?
29:55I'd say it's you and your brother
29:56who got cocky
29:57and come to my town
29:58like you own the place.
29:59Oh, we did own the place once.
30:01We're all quite happy here,
30:02as I recall,
30:02although we could never control
30:04those pesky witches
30:05of the French Quarter.
30:06How are you doing?
30:08Your brother asked me
30:10the same question.
30:11I gave him the same answer.
30:12It's my business.
30:13Everything in the quarter
30:15is my business.
30:17Klaus comes into town
30:18all nice and friendly.
30:19Then he starts looking down
30:20his nose at what I'd done
30:21like it's some cheap knockoff
30:23of one of his dumb paintings.
30:25Then he gets pissed off
30:26like a little bitch
30:27and bites one of my guys.
30:28Well, I do apologize
30:29for Klaus's poor behavior.
30:31I assume you know
30:32that that bite will kill
30:33your friend within a matter
30:34of days.
30:37Of course, me, Klaus's blood
30:38would cure him.
30:42What?
30:42Yes, apparently the blood
30:43of the hybrid will cure
30:44a werewolf bite.
30:47Quite a handy little thing
30:49when one needs leverage
30:50and negotiation.
30:53What kind of negotiations
30:54we talking about?
30:55Return the body of the witch,
30:56Jane Ann, allow her people
30:57to put her to rest.
30:58What do you care about
31:00the witches?
31:02That's my business now,
31:04isn't it?
31:13His time is up.
31:15What are you going to do now,
31:16Sophie?
31:18I'm going to do what I said
31:19I was going to do.
31:20What?
31:21Kill the girl,
31:21kill yourself.
31:23Klaus does not care
31:24about the child.
31:25I do.
31:26And I bring proof
31:34of my intent
31:36to help you.
31:38The body of your
31:39fallen friend,
31:41which I procured
31:42from Marcel himself.
31:44Oh, Jane Ann.
31:47We should be granted peace.
31:53Klaus will agree
31:54to your terms.
31:54I just need
31:56a little more time.
31:57You had your time.
31:59It's past.
31:59Shut up, Agnes.
32:03For now,
32:04accept the deal.
32:06The girl and the child
32:07remain unharmed.
32:10Or Klaus will kill you all.
32:19And I will help him.
32:24Have I not made clear
32:36my desire to be left alone?
32:38Well, you demand
32:39to be left alone
32:40at least once a decade.
32:41Your words have ceased
32:42to have impact.
32:44Why must you keep
32:45harping on about the baby?
32:47That child will never be born.
32:48In fact,
32:50Ailey is probably
32:51dead already.
32:54You will not
32:55walk away from this.
32:57Let me go!
32:59I will not!
33:05Don't make me say it again!
33:07I will not let go.
33:08I will never let go.
33:10Even if I have to
33:15spend eternity
33:15saving you
33:16from your own
33:17stubborn,
33:18petulant,
33:19vile self.
33:22In fact,
33:23to beat you as father
33:23used to be to remind you
33:24of your own humanity.
33:26To care
33:27about anything.
33:28You're beyond pathetic,
33:41Elijah.
33:45Well, who's more pathetic?
33:48The one who sees hope
33:49to make his family whole?
33:53Or the coward
33:54who can only see the world
33:56through his own fear?
33:58I haven't cared about
33:59anything for centuries.
34:01Why on earth do you?
34:04Well, because I failed you.
34:08Because the first time
34:09our father laid a hand on you,
34:11I should have struck him dead.
34:15And I made a promise to you.
34:19Always.
34:21Forever.
34:23Family above all.
34:28You are a sentimental fool.
34:46Perhaps.
34:47But I've lasted this long
34:53in spite of it,
34:54haven't I?
34:54The bond of family blesses us
35:16with an immeasurable power.
35:18But we also must accept
35:30what comes with it.
35:39It gives us a responsibility
35:40to love without condition.
35:46Without apology.
35:47We can never waver from the power
35:59of that bond,
36:00even when it is tested.
36:05The bond nourishes us.
36:08It gives us strength.
36:09Without that power,
36:11without that power,
36:13we are nothing.
36:16This town was my home once.
36:20And in my absence,
36:21Marcel has got everything
36:23I ever wanted.
36:25Power.
36:27Loyalty.
36:29Family.
36:30I made him in my image
36:33and he has bettered me.
36:38I want what he has.
36:41I want it back.
36:45I want to be king.
36:46So is that all this child means to you?
36:55A grant for power.
36:57What does it mean to you?
37:02I think this child could offer you
37:06the one thing that you've never believed you had.
37:09And what's that?
37:12The unconditional love of family.
37:14Tell Sophie Devereaux we have a deal.
37:25You all right?
37:41Just dust.
37:43This place is ancient.
37:45Yes, it should serve our purposes.
37:49It's a sanctuary
37:51for my business in the quarter.
37:53Right now,
37:56you're the most important person
37:57in this family.
37:58We need a good home.
38:02So I'm curious,
38:04in all this time,
38:05has anyone asked you
38:06how you feel?
38:07About having a miracle baby
38:09with a psychotic one-night stand.
38:11About being a mother.
38:22I...
38:22I was abandoned
38:24when I was born
38:25and my adoptive parents
38:28kicked me out
38:29the second that I turned into a wolf.
38:32So...
38:33I don't really know
38:36how I feel about being a mother
38:37because I...
38:38I never really had a good one.
38:43I will always protect you.
38:45You have my word on that.
38:49And noble Elijah
38:53always keeps his word.
38:56Is it done?
38:56As a matter of fact,
38:58yes.
38:59Your underhanded deal
39:00worked quite well.
39:02Marcel was only too happy
39:03to accept my blood
39:04even as he accepted
39:05my heartfelt apologies.
39:07His man, Thierry,
39:08yet lives
39:09and I remain a welcome guest
39:11in the French Quarter.
39:12My only concern now
39:14is this coven
39:16of impotent witches.
39:18I believe them to be honorable.
39:20They did release Haley to me.
39:23Although they haven't been
39:24entirely forthcoming.
39:26Marcel obviously has something
39:28that they need.
39:30They don't want him dead.
39:31There must be a reason why.
39:51I assume it's all quiet out there.
39:55The witches know better
39:56than to use magic.
39:58They know they can sense it
39:59when they do.
40:01What about the old ones?
40:06They're dangerous
40:07and I don't want them
40:08to hurt you.
40:08The originals.
40:11Davina.
40:12As powerful as you are,
40:14they don't stand a chance.
40:17In addition to the secret weapon
40:19he uses to control the witches,
40:20Marcel has assembled
40:21a small army of vampires.
40:24Working together,
40:26we could destroy them
40:27from the inside.
40:28From what of Rebecca?
40:29as she stopped her pouting
40:31long enough to join the fun.
40:34She has made her disinterest
40:36quite clear.
40:37One too many times
40:38daggered and shoved in a box,
40:40I gather.
40:41Or perhaps
40:42she doesn't share
40:45your unwavering belief
40:46that I can be saved.
40:48Rebecca may surprise us yet.
40:50After all,
40:52we all swore the same vow.
40:55I hope
40:56she stays far away.
41:00Because in my desire
41:02to reclaim this town,
41:03to steal from Marcel
41:05that which he holds most dear,
41:07I have realized
41:08one massive vulnerability,
41:12one weakness
41:14that Marcel could exploit.
41:16And what is that?
41:19You.
41:25Forgive me,
41:26my brother.
41:29There is no power in love.
41:32Mercy
41:33makes you weak.
41:35Family
41:36makes you
41:38weak.
41:39If I am going to win this war,
41:44I have to do it alone.
41:46I have to do it alone.
