Klaus sets out to free Elijah from Esther’s spell, Cami proves her worth, Hayley takes a page out of Esther’s book, and Davina and Kol have some serious chemistry…
I have to admit that I was very surprised when Kol mentioned that he was a witch before being turned. It does make sense given that magic runs in families, but you would have thought it would have been mentioned before now. That would explain why he seems to get so much sheer joy out of magic. Well, that and the fact that he is a sadist. All that being said, I am impressed that he seems to be as close to Davina as he is. I never really saw him being that close to anyone. You know that he is using Davina, but there is definitely something else there. I do have to agree with him, her resistance to his charms is somewhat baffling (particularly with the open shirt on display!).
So it was Kol who go the witches to create the dark objects that Cami got from Kieran. That would explain the almost sadistic edge that some of them have (remember the star of 1,000 cuts from last season?). It also gave him the opportunity to use magic again without having magic of his own. Davina does need to be careful with him because he seems to be playing a very deep game. It may not rebound on her, but you never know.
These past few weeks have not been good for Esther. In the past few weeks, she has discovered that Mikael is back, Klaus refused her “offer”, and Kol lied to her about Mikael. Then this week Finn and Kol are kidnapped, Ansel is killed by Klaus, and Elijah is brought out of his coma by Klaus. Yeah, things are not looking great for her at the moment. I have to admit to a certain perverse pleasure that Hayley is using the playbook of taking what means the most to your enemy on Esther. She richly deserves it.
I was very impressed with Cami and her willingness to play bait for Finn. I think the best line of the night was hers. You know the one; “I always thought having a woman’s mouth on my neck would be more erotic.” When she clapped those magical handcuffs on Finn and let him know that she knew who he was, he looked almost completely shattered. He honestly thought he had her and she disabused him of that particular notion in a spectacular fashion. I just wonder how Klaus will feel about Cami putting herself in danger that way.
I am not sure who to feel sorrier for, Klaus or Ansel. Klaus could have reconnected with his biological father, but his parental and trust issues run too deep. Well, those and the fact that Ansel figured out that Hope is still alive. Say what you will about Klaus, but if he counts you as a part of his family, he will protect you. Right now that family includes Elijah, Hope, Hayley, and Cami. I suspect that he’ll extend his protection to others who are particularly important to his family, but that will happen slowly. Ansel is brought back for another life and loses it at the hands of his own son. That has to seriously suck.
Josh and Aiden continue to flirt and be seriously cute together. Please don’t kill either of them because they are the one semi-normal (if star-crossed) couple on this show…
Until next week!
