One of the best penultimate episodes!!

Warning: Spoilers
Without doubt, this HAS to be one of the best penultimate episodes of a season in recent past. I mean, right from the start where Marcel takes hold of the two wolves, till the end where Hayley, in a miserable state, gets surrounded by witches, this episode drops bomb after bomb (well, literally too, courtesy Merceleus). The acting was top notch here, as it most often is in this series. But hats off to Francesca, I mean, she delivers just the right amount of rage and threat (and later on, the big bad twist) to make us understand that she can't be taken lightly.. At all costs.

I was never fond of the way Klaus treated Genevieve, toying with her and playing with her feelings, so it was nice to see her getting a satisfying revenge.

And boy, Francesca turning out to be a surviving Guerrero werewolf? Wow, just wow. She was leading the human faction without ever being a human! Talk about deceiving your counterparts!

Marcel's attack on the house was always going to be a treat to watch, considering Elijah were to take the spotlight. But it would have been predictable nonetheless. So what do the writers do? They throw in an unexpected, awesome-ly horrifying wolf attack in the middle, thanks to a little hidden pact between Genevieve and Francesca.

Let's not forget that, between all this, Mikael is getting closer and closer to returning in actuality. I just wish he gets a longer period to say.

And what about that last scene where Klaus is limping and screaming helplessly? It was an agonizing yet thought provoking situation. Power and Authority are two different things, perhaps this was the best portrayal?

With the baby about to come, three of the cast members bitten, and the threat of Mikael looming, the wait for the finale is outstandingly torturous.

All in all, a job well done, writers!!

Klaus Was Tricked By Genevieve and Ms. Correa

Warning: Spoilers
Ms. Correa comes into the gumbo pub where Cami is at. Correa says she now owns the place and business has been going down since Sophie Devereaux kicked the bucket. She threatens Cami for the necklace her Uncle Kieran owned.

Cami goes by herself to a property that Kieran owned and was written in the will. She wears a cute high-low top and hoop earrings. She asks to go in alone and then in the closet, she finds another opening in the back. She finds another big room filled with books and documentation. Kieran has left a box with her name on it. Inside there is information on Correa's family - she has guerrera werewolf blood.

Klaus and Elijah find their werewolves who were bringing the stones they need to make the moonlight rings in Marcel's dingy place. Elijah and Hayley share a bittersweet moment when Hayley tells Elijah she is betrothed to Jackson. Elijah kisses her and tells her she will always have a choice.

Genevieve uses Klaus's blood for the moonlight rings. Ms. Correa takes one ring then kills the security guy she had with her. This triggers the guerrera werewolf gene and she takes the rest of the rings with her. Hayley is taken by the witches to the church where she goes into early labour.
