Episode was meh, as all other episodes have been this season. I'm just counting down until the finale tbh. I binged this show in like 2 months time so never really got a chance to soak it in, but I am glad tbh because the last two seasons have been slow and I might have stopped watching all together.

Elijah seeking out Hayley's boyfriend Declan was a bit weird, but I think it makes sense because he wants to know about her life and what he missed. He said that Elijah broke her heart, which is interesting. She at least talked about that. But, Elijah just telling him about the vampires and Declan accepting it so easily was just weird lol. Glad that Elijah compelled him.

Poor Hope having to deal with the Hollow, but its better being in her than it was surrounding all the siblings. At least they can finally be in the same room together again. The Hope and Klaus scenes were pretty sweet.

The Freya/Keelin storyline was sweet I guess but idk, I stopped caring about them last season I think. They weren't handled very well to me.

Didn't really care about the other storylines going on whatsoever.

Last time I checked, Hayley broke up with Elijah.... how does that equal him breaking her heart? Technically she broke her own... unless him losing his memories was what broke her heart?

Good episode although I felt it could have been better. I love Klaus ,Freya and Hope sitting at the table planing for a visit from Rebecca. Than Elijah comes down and ruin it. I wonder if Elijah ever heard the term "Too Soon"?. It's way too soon for him to be around Hope.

Elijah talking to Declan about Hayley was as sweet as it was creepy. Declan watches as Hope and Elijah fight . He wasn't as scared as I expected him to be. I loved Elijah telling him everything, unfortunately he won't remember it since Elijah compelled him......unless Declan was on vervain. Which I truly think he is, or he could be a witch. I still don't exactly trust Declan. Why cast a known actor (he was on reign) for such a small part? Declan was cast as Hayley's boyfriend, but we never even got to see them as a couple. They never even shared a on screen kiss. So there's has to be something more to his character.

I love the scene where Marcel and Josh go to visit the Nightwalkers (aka Nazi vampires) and open up the curtains to let the sun shines in. However the old Marcel would have just killed them. Marcel really have gone soft. He need to let Klaus tell him how to do things.

The nightwalkers destroyed the werewolves headquarters by sending a compelled human to blow it up. Which killed a few red shirts..rip Lisina, and nearly killed Keelin. Neither are characters that we know much about. Than Vincent, Marcel and some people waited for the leader of the Nightwalkers to show up . They were ready for them. Only to discover they didn't show up. They had a Witch send projecting image of them. They tell Vincent that Ivy's death is on his head. Vincent rush to the cemetery to fine ivy dead. He was too late to stop her.

Vincent is human. Wouldn't have been better to send Marcel, or Josh? Someone with vamp speed who would have gotten there a lot sooner than Vincent? I know Vampires can't go into the cemetery, (although both Marcel and Klaus have before) he could have yell for her to not take the poison. Marcel have all this power, yet he only seem to use it against Klaus and Elijah. What the point in being the most powerful if you are not going to use it on anyone but family?

The Nightwalkers (aka Nazi vampires) claimed they have a witch on their side. This is the second time they had mentioned that. I firmly believe it was Ivy until she died (if she is truly dead). I wonder if it could be Declan? If it was just a random witch they would have show him or her by now. So who do you think is the witch that is working with them?
