The Originals Season 2 Episode 16 Trust issues of Klaus

Every episode of the originals season 2 more secrets are being revealed but not only for that the trust issues also for every of the character are slowly fading. Flashback to Norway in 977 A.D.: Dahlia is cooking up some sort of gruel for Freya to eat. When Freya cries out for her Mama, Dahlia tells Freya that her Mama didn’t want her, and gave her away. We all know that is entirely false, but Dahlia’s evil, so… yeah.

Klaus invites Freya to a family brunch. These things never end well. Marcel comes to Rebekah and tells her to stay, before running out into the courtyard to confront Ms. LaRue and the gaggle of witches that are there to retaliate against Eva St.Clair (aka Rebekah’s body) for a crime she committed the previous night. Elijah appears to pacify both sides. He insists he will find who was responsible for the crimes and will make sure they pay.



Klaus sent Hayley and Jackson to the bayou for the day so that he’d be free to dine with Freya. Elijah is quick to warn him that they might actually need Freya’s help in the near future, so whatever nefarious plans he may have up his sleeve should probably stay there. Klaus seems open to getting to know his sister, but we all know Klaus never does anything without an agenda. Elijah knows this too, thank goodness.

Marcel visits Vincent and gives him the (not-so-fabulous) news that he’s been possessed for a little more than nine months. Vincent is, unsurprisingly, a little baffled by the idea, but seems to accept the reality quickly enough. Then Marcel gets down to what he really wants: information about Eva Sinclair. Vincent clams up really quickly.

Rebekah goes to Davina for help, and when Rebekah lets her in on what’s going on with this body she’s inhabiting, Davina agrees. Freya is alive, Dahlia is coming, Vincent isn’t Finn anymore and Klaus trusts no one. Just another day for The Originals in New Orleans.



Freya starts spilling the dirt on Dahlia, including that Dahlia is bound by the one-year-of-life-every-century restriction that Freya has been existing under. Dahlia wants to gather Hope’s power so that she can break the life restriction. Freya goes on to say that Dahlia taught her a new kind of magic back in Norway, which bonded them, making Dahlia unstoppable.

Jackson and Aiden are doing a little play fighting, which quickly takes a turn for the macho. Aiden warns Jackson that if the others in the pack start to sense his weaknesses, they will not hesitate to challenge him for lead of the pack.

Back at Casa de Klaus, Freya is insisting that they have never come up against a power as strong as Dahlia. She lets them know that when Dahlia learned that Esther cut off her blood line by turning her children into vampires, Dahlia wanted Freya to bear the child that would continue the bloodline and provide her with a new source of power. Freya then took a vow never to love to keep herself from subjecting a child to the same horrible past that she suffered through. Dahlia takes the last of Freya’s freedom by binding her to the once-in-a-century curse, and Freya resents her for it. When Klaus asks her why she didn’t end her own life years ago, she tells him that the curse made her impervious to harm, just like her vampire siblings. She had even that right taken from her.

Marcel brought Cami to talk to Vincent, thinking that maybe she could get the information that he needs out of him. She offers to trade him information. She’ll tell him what Finn was up to in his body if he tells her more about Eva Sinclair Rebekah is more than a little furious about the body she’s in fighting back. Elijah is eager to ask Freya for help, but Klaus thinks Freya is manipulating them. Par for the course with Klaus.

Freya is able and willing to help Rebekah, but Klaus is surly and grumpy. He doesn’t want to trust his sister, but Elijah and Rebekah are eager to let her prove her worth. While Elijah and Rebekah have a touching moment, Klaus performs one of the most Klaus-like acts in the history of his character and sneaks up behind Freya and snaps her neck.

Klaus doesn’t trust Freya because he would do exactly what she is doing if he wanted to manipulate them. Oh Klaus… sigh. Cami and Vincent continue to bond. As they discuss crazy events of the past few months, Vincent tells her to bring Marcel back so he can tell him something he needs to know about Eva Sinclair.

Klaus moves Freya’s body, and when she wakes, he is there to make sure that she knows that he doesn’t trust Elijah and Rebekah’s faith in her because they’ve continued to have faith in him, and he considers Freya to be up to his kind of antics. He wants to know what she wants. And he’s giving her one last chance.

Freya tells Klaus of the greatest horror she experienced under Dahlia’s rule of terror. Freya once broke her own vow not to love and fell for a man named Mathias. When she became pregnant with child, Mathias tried to find a way to keep their baby from Dahlia, and for that, Dahlia cursed him to death. Freya then drank a bottle of poison to kill herself and the baby, but, being invulnerable to harm (which she was then, unaware of), she later woke to find that the poison killed her child, but she will remain alive.

Klaus refuses to trust Freya. He insists she is trying to manipulate him. Freya goes on to remind Klaus that no matter how he feels about her, Dahlia is still coming, and she can and wants to help fight against her. Marcel, Rebekah, and Elijah return to see Vincent, who informs them that Eva Sinclair was/is his wife.

Klaus goes on another “I’m the only one that knows how to protect Hope” rant and Hayley listens, but she’s clearly tired of him and his ultimatums and grand declarations of distrust.

Rebekah and Marcel have a tender moment in which he reminds her that she is the strongest of her siblings, and that she will survive this. Rebekah has another flash of memory, and asks Marcel to stay with her.

We then see that Davina is amongst the young witches that Eva Sinclair has taken under a spell, as we see a pile of young bodies with markings carved into their foreheads.
