1x09 Reigning Pain in New Orleans

(Opening)

Klaus:  [voiceover] My siblings and I are the first vampires in history, the Originals. Three hundred years ago, we helped build New Orleans. In our absence, a new king arose. Now I've returned and taken his kingdom as my own. I had hope this would bring our family together. I was wrong.

Klaus: [to Rebekah and Elijah] I wanted our home back, so I'm going to live there. And the two of you? You can stay here together and rot.

Klaus: [to Katherine] You're coming with me, Katerina.

Katherine: Why would I go anywhere with you?

Klaus: Now, you can fight me on this, but you will lose. As will anyone else who tries to stop you getting in this car. [Katherine reluctantly stands up and gets in the car.]

(The Abattoir / Newly-Returned Mikaelson Compound)

[Klaus has set up a dinner table is set up in the courtyard to celebrate his return to leadership over New Orleans and his repossession of the Abbatoir compound from Marcel. The vampire army, including Marcel and his closest friends, are seated around the table, and Klaus and Katherine are seated at each end. Klaus calls for everyone's attention to give a speech by tapping his glass with his fork]

Klaus: Let us begin with a toast to our shared gift: immortality. After a thousand years, one might expect life to be less keenly felt, for its beauties and its sorrows do diminish with time. But, as vampires, we feel more deeply than humans could possibly imagine.

[Klaus gestures toward a group of waiters and waitresses to have them join them at the table, one for each guest]

Klaus: Insatiable need, exquisite pain...

[The servants slit their wrists with knives, filling the cups with blood for the vampires]

Klaus: Our victories, and our defeats.

[He looks at Marcel, who flashes back to a memory from earlier]

(Flashback The Garden)

[Some time before the dinner, Rebekah and Marcel have met in the Garden to discuss Klaus' recent return to power]

Rebekah: You can't afford your wounded pride. With Klaus in control of your empire, you need to give him what he craves most: loyalty. Or, at least, the illusion of it.
