What it’s about
Three hundred years ago Elijah, Rebekah and Klaus arrive in the French quarter of New Orleans, along with Finn and Kol daggered in coffins. In the present, Klaus returns to New Orleans after he receives a threatening letter. Elijah searches for Klaus, arriving in New Orleans before him. He finds the witch who called Klaus back, Jane Anne Deveraux. He meets her sister, Sophie, and other witches of the coven and they tell him that Jane Anne called Klaus to get rid of Marcel, as Marcel has been killing witches who were practicing magic. Klaus goes to his former home in the French quarter, where he and Marcel argue. Elijah calls Rebekah to let her know what is going on in New Orleans. Klaus is not willing to accept that Hayley is pregnant with his child. Sophie reveals that her sister linked Sophie's body to Hayley's. Elijah makes a deal with Marcel to give Jane Anne's body to the witches and allow them to cremate her; in return, Klaus would give his blood to cure Thierry and Marcel agrees. Elijah makes Hayley a promise that he will protect her. Klaus later daggers Elijah.
