"Surrounded by 20,000 acres of swamp, the ones born here who now know it like the backs of our hands, will be fine. But here," she points at the map with her stake. "newcomers from out of state - not of MayBeth's and my kin. But, word spread about that baby of hers. A lot of werewolves wanna see this miracle pregnancy for themselves. Only now, the vampires are out looking for blood, and all these werewolves new at the bayou might not know where to hide." Eve says. "You say that like we're supposed to care." Rebekah says. "Believe me, you're gonna want them kept alive." Eve states. "And why is that?" Elijah asks. "See for yourself." Eve says.

In The Compound's Garage

"I know you're in here, Josh. I can sense your fear." Davina says. Josh comes from behind a car. "I heard you're moving in." Josh asks. Davina smiles. "What are you doing in here?" She asks. "You might've known." Davina and Josh hug. "You know, incognito. Gotta run for the hills, but I'm stuck here until it gets dark." Josh says. "Are you okay?" Davina asks. "Yeah, yeah... No. Not really. I mean, totally led Klaus into a trap that was the most epic fail of all time, so yeah, kinda crapping my pants right now, figuratively. So far." Josh says. "It's okay. You can trust Marcel. And if Klaus tries to hurt you - I'll hurt him." Davina says. While they were talking, Maybeth has walked in on them. "I'm sure if you could actually stop Nik, you would've done it already." MayBeth states. "You're MayBeth. Klaus' wife." Davina asks. "No, not yet. I'm his girlfriend. I'm also the pregnant werewolf/witch/vampire. Anyways, you must be all-powerful superwitch, Davina? And let's not forget Josh, newbie vampire way out of his element, voted "Most Likely to Die Next." Maybeth says. Josh nods nervously. "Fantastic." Josh sarcastically. "Hey. I'm just another one of Nik's prisoners. He won't let me out of his sight. Of course, it would suck if he found out you're still lurking around. Maybe there's a world where we can all look out for each other?" MayBeth says.

Cami's Apartment

Cami rushes to the door when she hears a knock. Cami sees its her uncle. "I called you hours ago!" Cami says. "I came as fast as I could. What's going on? Your voicemail sounded..." Kieran says. He is interrupted by Cami. "What!? Paranoid? Unhinged?" She states. "Upset." Kieran says. "That picture I found. The one that was.. I don't know, a hundred years old. You said it was just a coincidence. But..." Cami grabs the phone with recordings of Klaus' and her earlier meeting. She presses 'play,' and Father Kieran hears Cami's and Klaus' voices: 'My sanity is not a joke.' - 'No, I don't believe it is.' Cami's eyes fill with tears. "...that's my voice! But I don't remember it. I think it's... It think it's some kind of mind-control, he's erasing my memory!" Cami states. Father Kieran's phone rings. "Yes? They what?" He looks concerned and dodges the call. "We will talk about this later." He leaves Cami's apartment in a hurry.

Rousseau's Bar, Meeting Room

Father Kieran arrives to a city council meeting. "Why wasn't I consulted on this?" Kieran asked. "You've been gone for over eight months, Kieran. We got used to doing things on our own." The Mayor says. "This Klaus Mikaelson, I don't care who he is or what the rumors say. He needed to be taught a lesson." The Sheriff continues. "You are gonna start a war!" Kieran says. "I'd like to see them try. Oh, and Kieran, this is the last time you call a meeting. Next time you wanna criticize our leadership, send a damn email." The Sheriff says. "I thought you called this meeting...?" Kieran says confused. "The hell we did." The Sheriff states. Klaus enters the room. "Actually, I called it. It appears I made a grave error during our earlier conference. My friend Marcel offered me wise counsel, and I failed to heed it." Klaus says. "I'm glad to hear you've learned your lesson." The Sheriff says. "Oh, I won't be making that mistake again." Klaus calls out. "Marcel!" Marcel vamp-speeds to the Sheriff and stabs his neck. Marcel grins, content, as the Sheriff bleeds and people scream. Klaus approaches him, smiling. "Shall we...?" Klaus asks. "After you!" Marcel says.
