Lorilei opens the door to her apartment with Elijah behind her. "There's someone here," Elijah announces, sensing a presence in the apartment.
"Oh, that'll be Luka," Lorilei answers, surprising the Original as she walks into the apartment with him following behind her, and she closes the door. "Yeah. We faked his death." She locks the front door and enters the kitchen, growing hungry after her long day.
"Hey, Lorilei, did you talk to the Salvatores?" Luka asks, walking into the kitchen, stopping when he sees the Noble Original standing in the room. "I'll take that as a yes."
"Yeah. And it was exhausting. Dumb and dumber thought they knew everything. Dumber even called me earlier to try and find Elena, who woke Elijah. Stupid baby Vampires," She complains as the brunette gets things out of the cupboards to make something to eat.
"You'll need to begin making the elixir I told Elena about," Elijah interrupts her rant, making her look at him unimpressed.
"Can I eat first?" The McKnight Witch asks him, growing frustrated. "Or is the doppelganger more important?"
"Lorlei don't start," He sighs and walks out into the living room, opening the hidden door of the Witch Room.
"Well, there's a reason I'm "starting". Elena Gilbert looks like Katerina. I thought you'd gotten over her years ago. Seeing as you've dated over the last few years that I've known you. Or was that a lie?" Lorilei questions, growing angry at him.
"I have. I assure you. But we need to stop Klaus," Elijah argues.
"I get that. But Elena doesn't have to live afterwards. She can stay dead after you kill your brother," She snaps, following and looking through her vast collection of Grimoires.
"I don't want to break up a family like ours was," The Noble Original tells her, and she looks at him, her eyes softening a little.
"Fine," The McKnight sighs, and she picks out a dark brown leather hardback book with golden Celtic etching on the cover off the shelf. "Luka, can you make me something to eat while I make the elixir?" She asks the young Warlock, who nods, goes back into the kitchen.

"Thank you. I promise. Once this is over, we'll leave this town and go back to New York." Elijah promises her, and she smiles, walking into her Witch Room and grabbing various ingredients and bottles.

Damon lies in bed the next day, contemplating getting up when he hears Elijah's conversation with Elena and Stefan downstairs in the living room, the Original having arrived a little while ago with Lorilei. "Tonight is the full moon. We should assume that Klaus is prepared to break the curse," Elijah informs the happy couple, and Damon gets out of bed.
