Klaus' Daughter is a Lockwood?

The Needle of Sorrows and Hayley's Freedom

JARDIN GRIN VOODOO SHOP

Rebekah and Nicole frantically rifle through bottles and jars, looking for the herbs they need to help Hayley, when Marcel walks in. "Isn't this Katie's shop?" Nicole smiles at Marcel while Rebekah stops, rolls her eyes, and sighs as she goes back to looking for the herbs. "She leave you lovely ladies the keys in her will?" Nicole smirked. "Or maybe it's just Help-Yourself Tuesday?" Nicole shook her head as she watched Marcel approach Rebekah. "What are you doing here?" Rebekah keeps looking trying to ignore him. "You know, I read if you mix mugwort with sage, you've got quite a vampire-repellent? Wards off even the most resilient pest." Nicole walks over to them and grabs Marcel's arm. "Why are you here Marcel?" Marcel switches roles so now he is holding Nicole's arms behind her back. 

Rebekah is frozen waiting for Marcel to make his next move. "Just keeping my city safe from thieves and vandals. But, every time I turn around, I catch an Original and you with their hand in the cookie jar!" Rebekah tries to distract him. "Well, luckily for you, your "cookies" are the last thing on my mind." Marcel chuckles. "Oh, I can see that!" He walks toward her and releases Nicole. "Though, I can think of a time when things were different." Nicole tenses up watching him flirt with her Aunt. Rebekah goes back to looking for the herbs. "Maybe once. Not anymore." She finally stops searching when she finds the herbs she needs. "Camphor, found it! Let's go!" She & Nicole quickly exit the shop, leaving a confused and suspicious Marcel behind.

ST. ANN'S CATHOLIC CHURCH

Father Kieran receives a text message from Chief Sullivan that reads, "3631 CHARBONNET ST. LOWER 9TH WARD." He puts his phone in his pocket and goes to leave, but he's stopped by Klaus. "Going somewhere?" Kieran nervously responds. "You're early." Klaus smirks. "Well, it's a good thing I am. You seem hell-bent on enacting vengeance all on your lonesome. The trouble is, I need something from Agnes before you send her off to meet her maker. So, I propose we strike a deal!" He sits down in a pew. "Bring her here! In exchange, I'll even ensure your niece, Cami, remains safe. Oh, I'd so hate for her to get caught up in all of this."

The police officers in the Faction return to the church with Agnes, who is handcuffed and brought to the front of the room. Agnes is appalled. "This is outrageous! What is the charge?" The officers sit her in a pew and leave. "Please, Agnes. You know that Marcel runs the vampires in this town." He is handed a folded cloth by the officer, which is revealed to contain the Needle of Sorrows. "Who do you think runs everything else?" He holds the needle up and calls out to Klaus, who vamp-speeds to his side. "I believe this is what you were looking for?" Klaus appears and smirks. "Hello, Agnes." Agnes is shocked. "You made a deal with him?" Kieran is furious. "After what you did to Sean, I'd deal with the devil himself just to make you suffer!" Agnes stands up and gets in Kieran's face. "You can't hurt me. The entire witch community will turn against you!"

Klaus knows time is wasting and grows angry. "ENOUGH! Please, enough! I don't care about witch politics. I don't care about your ridiculous little Harvest ritual. What I care about is this trinket." He holds up the Needle of Sorrows. "Undo its curse, or I'll show you things worse than death!" Agnes smirks. "Dark objects don't come with an off-switch! The curse took root in Sophie, she's linked to your devil child. It's just a matter of time!"

MIKAELSON MANSION

Hayley is wrapped in a towel, sitting outside beside the swimming pool. Rebekah stands behind her, checking her temperature, while Elijah assists Sophie in helping with the herbs. He shrugs off his jacket and rolls up his sleeves. "She's burning up! We need to do this now." Sophie panics. "Get her in the water!" Elijah jumps into the pool and helps Hayley in. Sophie mixes herbs in a cup and follows them into the water as well. Nicole is frustrated. "I don't see how a midnight swim is supposed to help!" Sophie feels Hayley's forehead. "Her temperature is sky-high. The water, with the help of the herbs, should cool us down." She hands Hayley the herbal concoction. "Drink this!" She turns to Elijah. "You're going to have to get her heart rate down."

Elijah grows frustrated. "How do you suggest I do that?" Sophie thinks. "Hold her. It's a natural human remedy to slow the heart rate and reduce blood pressure." Rebekah and Nicole are worried. "This is never gonna work." Nicole grabs Rebekah's hand. "It will. Stay positive." Elijah picks Hayley up and holds her bridal-style in the pool. "Davina will break the link, we just need time." Hayley clings to Elijah and groans as she gasps for breath. Hayley begins hyperventilating. "I can't breathe!" Nicole jumps in the water but stays behind them and tries to comfort her. "Okay Elijah, we gotta get her to take long deep breaths! Come on Hayley!" Elijah follows Nicole's advice and continues to calm Hayley. "Look at me. Long deep breaths, just focus on the sound of my voice." He lowers his voice to a whisper. "You'll be okay. You'll be okay." Nicole backs up by Sophie. "This better work; for your sake."

Davina is sitting on her bed in her room, studying the spell intently. She stares at the sanguinum knot on her vanity, and after a moment, she stands up and walks over to it. She picks up the knot with both hands and takes a breath before she begins the spell. This time, she recites it properly. She whispers "Phesmatos omnio legares cordate..." She continues the spell "Phesmatos omnio legares cordate sangorium." The clock on her table chimes as it hits 09:00PM.

Hayley screams in pain and thrashes in Elijah's hold. "AHHHH! AHHHH!" Nicole has tears forming in her eyes; fear overcoming her. Sophie starts to gasp as the linking spell begins to lift. Hayley continues to groan in pain.

The knot in Davina's hands floats in the air and begins to unknot itself. The knot completely unravels itself in midair, and Davina smiles and giggles in happiness.

In the pool, Sophie looks up at the sky, looking almost disappointed. "I just felt it lift." Rebekah sighs in relief. Nicole wipes the tears from her eyes and smiles. Hayley starts to calm down, and Elijah looks stunned. Hayley stands up on her own, but still leans against Elijah, still weak from the spell. Sophie removes one of her earrings and pokes her palm with it. Hayley looks at her palm, and she and Elijah both look relieved when she's not injured. Elijah holds her hand and he and Hayley stare at each other for a long moment. Nicole and Rebekah notices their shared glances; they look at each other and smirk. Elijah quickly lets go and leads Hayley out of the pool. "Come on, let's go."

Sophie walks to Elijah. "Elijah... as soon as your brother finds out that the link is broken, he'll kill Agnes. I know you don't owe me anything, but please, don't let him kill her." Elijah zooms out of the pool and pulls his phone out of his jacket on the table. Sophie panics. "Elijah! She's our only access to the power we need to survive. Promise me that you'll stop him!" Elijah ignores her and dials a number into his phone before raising it to his ear. It's Klaus, though only Elijah's side of the call is heard. "It's me, where are you?" [beat] "Don't hurt her. I'll be there shortly." He hangs up and turns to Sophie. "I'll make you one last promise. I won't let my brother kill Agnes." Sophie nods at him gratefully, and Elijah picks up his jacket and shoes and walks away. "Wait! I'm coming with you!" Nicole yells as she follows behind her uncle. Sophie and Hayley turn to get out of the pool, but Hayley stops Sophie at the steps. "I know you were just using me to save your people, but try it again, and I'll kill you." Hayley leaves, and Sophie sighs in defeat.
