In the garden, M.G helps Josie look through the herb garden. Josie reveals that she is looking for an herb that speeds up the time something takes to bake, citing that she has a study date with her new lab partner, Finch. M.G, cautious about the illusion spell wearing off and exposing the ascendant, asks if the herb would work to fix the spell, but Josie remarks that it probably won't work. Nonetheless, when Josie tries one of the plants to test if it is what she is looking for, it is revealed to be the truth herb, causing Josie to make rude remarks about M.G's cooking.

They were met with Eli, who tells Josie that Finch is a werewolf and that if someone were to see her turn, they'd either expose her or she kills them while in primal mode. And urges Josie to tell Finch that there's a place for those like her.

At the bank, Alaric is surprised to meet the employee who will be considering his application for a loan to save the Salvatore School: Dana Lilien's mother, Vera Lilien. The two talk and Vera explains that after Dana's death she and her father split ways and she now works at the bank instead of the pharmacy. She takes Alaric through to her office where the two discuss his application.

Back at the Salvatore School, things become increasingly hostile as the effects of the leprechaun are felt more and more by the students and visitors.

And even though the student have enough money to pay off the debts, Hope realizes that her magic is not working on the leprechaun, therefore the only reasonable way to proceed is to let the leprechaun go and follow it to the portal. Cleo believes this to be a bad idea, but Hope says that if they can find The Mailvore portal, they can not only know here the monsters are coming from, but if there's a chance to bring Landon back, Rafael will have his brother back.

Alaric is surprised and angry when his application is denied by Vera, and cites that they should not be allowing a grudge between their daughters to be affecting his eligibility, but Vera remarks that he simply doesn't meet the criteria and she is not willing to risk the application.

Alaric asks if anything can be done to persuade her, and she closes the blinds of her office, propositioning Alaric in return for accepting the application.

Vinny managed to... persuade the bank to accept the money. And now with the school's debts cleared, Eli, Hope and Cleo follow the leprechaun to a large car park in the center of Mystic Falls. They decide to split up, and scream if anything out of the ordinary happens. Or in Eli's case, howl. As the three do, Cleo bumps into Alaric, who has heard news of the leprechaun and come to investigate. Cleo tells him that it is a long story he probably won't like, but the two are interrupted when the leprechaun attacks Alaric.

Cleo is reluctant to use her magic to aid Alaric, remembering that Hope wants the creature alive, but has no choice when the creature is seconds away from strangling Alaric. She casts a spell that causes the creature to explode, much to Hope's dismay. Though it didn't bother Eli.
