Great, if inconsistent, season finale

This episode worked well as a season finale however there were some inconsistencies in the quality of the writing. I was thrilled to have both the original Rebekah and original Esther back even if it was only for one episode. The scenes with Elijah, Rebekah and Klaus were as fabulous as always. I'm still not feeling as though Freya really fits. Time will tell.

As much as I like Vincent his scenes felt shoehorned into the episode. I love Vincent as mentor to Davina and I hope that the witches will resolve one of the shows most annoying constructs: that death does not really mean death in the world of The Originals or its mother show The Vampire Diaries.

I did not miss the wolves at all. The wolves storyline adds very little to the show. I feel they could all be written out somehow and the show would be tighter. Their storyline line is something I've always felt that the writers really don't know how to incorporate. It doesn't help that the wolf actors pale in comparison the rest of the cast.

The Originals never fail to impress!
faiqaakmal17 May 2015
The show itself is absolutely phenomenal and far better than The Vampire diaries. It started out with a great plot and has till now stuck with it. The originals family dramas never seem to end and with dahlia's entry in the show made it even more fierce and intense. I am completely amazed the way Klaus convinced everyone and carried out his plan but it sure does come with a price with his sibling yet again angered and disgusted by him. Hayley on the other side will now turn to human only once a month but how long this is going to continue ? Though I am still not sure whether Freya is trustworthy or not but time will surely tell. Over all they wrapped the show amazingly.

Dahlia and Esther
vivianla2 January 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Klaus was fooling everyone all along. He is not on Dahlia's side. Freya wakes up to see Dahlia and Klaus unconscious.

The sword is melting into Klaus so they have to act fast. Freya uses a locator spell to find the white oak stake as Marcel looks for Kol's ashes in a blue urn. Marcel finds a blue urn but it is empty.

Davina has Kol's ashes and wants to use her one-time ability as regent of the nine covens to bring back Kol. While Davina is speaking with Rebekah, Elijah switches the ashes to those of Esther.

Esther rises from the dirt naked. We see a towel wrapped around her and Davina furiousness.

The two sisters have a moment where back in time, Esther tells Dahlia she should have stayed by her side.

Elijah goes to the woods where Hayley is walking naked. Elijah promises to Hayley to get her out of this curse.
