*THE FRENCH QUARTER,Marcel boasts to Klaus his methods for providing fresh blood for his vampires.*
Marcel: (voiceover) The city of New Orleans... people of all stripes and flavors from all over the country come here to party on our streets. Some are just looking for fun... some are looking for something a little darker, more dangerous. So, we invite them into my home and we give it to them.(Diego, one of Marcel's vampires, shows a flyer to two tourists, a man and a woman. The flyer is headed by a large, monogrammed 'M', beneath which reads:ABATTOIR,WHERE THE PARTY NEVER ENDS" They enter the party and get their hands stamped with the same 'M' monogram as the flyer.)
Marcel: (voiceover) Then, at the stroke of midnight, everything changes, and it's time to feed.(Marcel leads Klaus around a balcony overlooking the party. They watch as Marcel's vampires feed ravenously on the humans, who scream in terror.)This is how I keep my guys happy: the occasional, all-you-can-eat buffet. My night-walkers love it. I've got 'em working hard, trying to earn one of these daylight rings. They deserve to blow off a little steam. My day-walkers, the trusted few – they just like the party.(Klaus notices a crest of some sort engraved on the stone wall below: it includes the 'M' monogram, as well as a coiled serpent. He does not comment on it.)
Klaus: It's quite an operation. Tell me – what about the victims? Seems like a lot of graves to dig.
Marcel: Can't kill 'em all. Too many folks go missing, tourism drops. So, we heal them with a little vamp blood, erase their memory, send them on their way – no muss, no fuss.
Klaus: I'm impressed.
Marcel: Nothing I didn't learn from you back in the day.(Thierry, one of Marcel's vampires, approaches the two.)
Thierry: Marcel.
Marcel: 'Sup, Thierry?
Thierry: Six of our guys were killed in a bar outside of the Quarter. Night-walkers. No one saw who.(While Marcel receives this news, Klaus looks away.)

*Cut to Rebekah driving her red convertible; she checks herself in the rearview mirror, wipes a drop of blood off her cheek, smiles and keeps driving.*

*Mikaelson Mansion,Rebekah parks in front of the Mikaelson mansion, leaving a message on her phone as she gets out. Hayley, inside, hears something and walks warily down the stairs. *
Hayley:(she yells out) Aria!(Aria suddenly appears next to her)
Aria: Is something wrong?
Hayley: I think someone is here.
Kol:(he walks past the stairwell) is just my annoying sister. (Aria then sees Jeremy following Kol)
Aria: Where are you two going?
Kol: We are going to have some fun, we are bored,just staying here.
Jeremy: and to get some food too,since apparently all they have here is blood.
Aria:(she rushes towards them and stands in front of Kol)wait, necklaces.(both Kol and Jeremy raise up their necklaces) good keep them on and be careful.
Kol:(in a mocking manner) yeah ok mom.(Aria hits him) Ow!(Kol then leaves with Jeremy)
Aria:(she shakes her head) ugh Kol.
Hayley:(she walks down stairs and stands next to Aria) is there really no food?
Aria: No there isn't, which is why I asked Rebekah if she could buy some.(she then places her hand on Hayley's stomach and Hayley places her hand on top of hers. Suddenly Rebekah walks in)
Rebekah: Alright,I got your food for the wolf who can't keep her legs close.
Aria: Rebekah.(she grabs the food)
Rebekah: Well it's true. (Aria looks at her) fine I'll stop.
Aria:(she starts to walk away but then stops when notice that Rebekah had some blood on her shirt) is that blood?
Rebekah:(she looks down) ugh that's bastards ruin a perfectly good shirt.
Aria:Who did you kill?
Rebekah: It doesn't matter, I have to go change now.(she leaves as Aria sighs and walked towards the kitchen as Hayley follows)
Hayley: You know I would be ok with just some cereal.
Aria:(she places the food on the table) well you're carrying mine and Nick's child in there(points to her stomach) so is our job to keep you and kid safe as well as make sure you are eating well. (She pulls out some containers) we got some burritos, pancakes, oatmeal, cookies, eggs with some sausages and bacon as well as butter and some syrup for the pancakes. So what do you want to eat?
Hayley: some cereal.
Aria:(she chuckles as she looks down) there isn't any but since you're so persistent,I'll buy some later.
Hayley: Good, I'll take the burritos.(Aria places the two burritos on a plate and gives it to Hayley. Aria then pulls out the chair for her and Hayley sits down) what a gentlewoman.(Aria smiles at her as Katherine then walks into the kitchen)
Katherine:Where's Elijah?
Rebekah:(she also walks in) yes I would like to know too.
Hayley: Beats me. He's long gone.
Rebekah: What do you mean, "long gone"?
Hayley: Well, one minute he was here and the next he's not. I saw him this morning but I haven't seen since.
Aria:(she frowns) that can't be good. Have you called him?
Katherine: I did but he's not answering.
Aria: Give me a minute.(she pulls out her phone)
Rebekah:I bet Niklaus has done something dastardly and Klaus-like.(she walks out) Klaus! Get out here and tell me what you've done with our brother, you narcissistic, back-stabbing wanker!(Klaus opens a pair of doors and enters the room.)
Klaus: Enough with all the shouting. Little sister, I should have known. I assume the six dead vampires were your doing?
Rebekah: They were very rude.(she has flashbacks to her at a bar, impaling vampires violently with a pool stick as she calmly explains.)Trying to victimize a poor, innocent girl just trying to find her way to the Quarter. So sorry, were they friends of yours? Oh, that's right, you don't have any friends.
Katherine: you got that right.
Klaus: I do have friends. I have my best friend Aria and my friend marcel. You remember him, don't you? Yes, of course you do. He fancies himself the 'King of the Quarter' now, and he has these rules about killing vampires. It'll be fun to see what sort of punishment he comes up with for you.
Rebekah: I don't care about Marcel or his rules. Elijah doesn't welch on deals. What did you do to him?
Klaus: Perhaps he's on holiday... or taking a long autumn nap upstairs. (Rebekah gives him a look) don't look at me like that I don't have the bloody daggers anymore, so I obviously didn't have anything to do with his—
Aria:(she walks in) Elijah is back. Turns out he was just at the store,buying milk and cereal.
Elijah: Indeed, my apologies for making anyone worried. Hayley has told me that she wanted some cereal.
Klaus: Well, isn't that nice of you brother.
Elijah:(he glances at Klaus) Niklaus.
Klaus: Ah,I see you still mad about—
Elijah: You trying to dagger me? Indeed.
Katherine:(she looks at Elijah) are you ok?
Elijah: Am fine, the dagger he tried to use on me last night was a fake.
Hayley:(she walks in as she heard the last part) dagger?
Rebekah: oh you don't know?
Aria:(in a warning tone) Rebekah...
Rebekah: what? If she's going to be involved in this family she should know.
Aria: no because there isn't going to be any daggering, not anymore.(Klaus' phone starts buzzing. He checks it, stands and moves to leave.)
Rebekah:Where are you going?
Klaus: It appears the night is not quite over, yet. I'm off for another drink with Marcel.
Rebekah: Elijah told me about your plan to take apart Marcel's empire piece by piece. I don't remember it involving you two drinking New Orleans dry together.
Klaus: I know you don't have many friends, Rebekah, but what some friends do when they get together is they drink. And when they drink, they tell secrets. Marcel has somehow found a way to control the entirety of witches in the Quarter with just one witch, and I aim to uncover the 'where' this witch is so I can take it for myself or kill her.
Aria: She has to be nearby,there's no way he would keep her far.
Klaus: right but since you can't do spells because the bloody witch will sense you and tell Marcel who will find it suspicious and ask questions on why you're doing magic. I have to find out by getting him to tell me himself.(Klaus turns and walks to the door, but pauses before he leaves.)Oh and Aria, make sure she doesn't do anything.(The door shuts behind him as Katherine and Elijah leave while Rebekah scoffs. She then sees Hayley sitting on a landing above with Aria.)
Rebekah: Aria,love. Where have you hidden the daggers?
Aria: Why do you want to know?
Rebekah: I want to make sure Nik won't be able to find them.
Aria: They are somewhere safe. (She walks towards her) don't worry I won't him or anyone dagger or the others.
Hayley:(walks towards them) ok what do you mean dagger them? Does Klaus kill them?
Rebekah: We can't be killed, silly girl. That doesn't stop Klaus from finding ways to torture us. He has a set of mystical silver daggers or at least had. One in the heart sends us into a deep slumber. Klaus gets his jollies from keeping us in a box, until he decides to pull the dagger out.
Hayley: (incredulously) He what?
Aria: He doesn't do that anymore.
Rebekah: Maybe so but that doesn't stop him from keeping our coffins in the basement.He likes to be prepared for when his family members inevitably disappoint him.
Aria: That's enough Rebekah.
Hayley: I feel sick.
Rebekah: Welcome to the family, love. You should've run the second you realize your mistake.
Hayley: Yeah, well, the witches have put some sort of hex on me. As long as I'm carrying this baby, I can't leave New Orleans. If I do, they kill me.
Rebekah: Well, knowing Klaus, he's planning a box for you the second you give birth to whatever's cooking in your tum.
Aria: Alright that's it.(she covers her mouth) you had your fun. (She looks at Hayley)he's not like that anymore ok, so you don't have anything to worry about.(she rushes off with Rebekah, leaving Hayley to consider what she's said.)
