MIKAELSON COMPOUND
[Hayley and Amelia are looking out over the French Quarter from the balcony of the nursery when they're suddenly startled by the sounds of tortured screaming. They both frown and return inside, following the noise to Klaus' bedroom, where Klaus has blood splattered all over his hands and face and is washing up in his sink.]
HAYLEY: Oh. So, I see your interrogation went well?
KLAUS: [looks at himself in the mirror] Eh, it turns out these witches are delicate creatures. No matter! I suspected my mother had Elijah captive.
AMELIA: Great. Let's go find them!
KLAUS: [shakes his head and walks toward her] Esther is too powerful. She won't be easily found. I need to draw her out. [He's about to shut the sliding doors that separate his room from the nursery when Amelia stops him.]
HAYLEY: Wait, where are you going?
KLAUS: I'm going to change my shirt, and then I'm going to find my brother. [He smiles fakely and is about to shut the doors again when Amelia once again stops him.]
AMELIA: [annoyed] Klaus, let us come with you!
KLAUS: [sighs and steps toward her] I know you guys want to help, Amelia and Hayley, but you can't. My mother is wretched. [looks at Hayley] She will target you in order to thwart me, [looks at Amelia] and of course she will target you to torture Elijah... and I can't very well save Elijah if I'm busy saving you both, can I?
[Hayley and Amelia roll their eyes, but remain silent, so Klaus finally shuts the doors and prepares his plans, leaving them to consider their options.]
MARCEL'S LOFT
[Gia has just returned to Marcel's apartment, where Marcel is waiting for her.]
GIA: I did like you said, I kept a low profile, went all over the city. There's no sign of Elijah anywhere.
MARCEL: Yeah, the humans I know said the same thing. Maybe Klaus is having better luck?
AMELIA: [enters the apartment] No, he's not, which sucks, considering how low the bar is around here.
HAYLEY: Listen, you two up for a rescue mission?
[Marcel looks at her, confused.]
GIA: Are we going after Elijah?
HAYLEY: Nope. That's all Klaus. I'm talking about Oliver. Now, Oliver, Amelia and Elijah were fighting the werewolves together. I've heard that Oliver's been captured and is about to be executed. Now, look, if we can save Oliver, then we might be able to find out where Elijah is.
MARCEL: 'Kay, so what do you want from us?
HAYLEY: Just a little distraction. Esther's son, Finn, he's the one that's controlling the werewolves. If you can keep him out of the way, we can go get Ollie.
