I also got a tumblr account so that's where I reblogged most of the gifs I used tonight (I wish I knew how to make my own gifs)
Alright so here is a jotted recap of the episode with my initial thoughts included throughout and after the episode. I do it this way because my memory sucks when it comes to recalling things that don't revolve around my OTP for the series.
SEASON 2
Don't forget: light blue are thoughts, red is sneak peek parts
Once again, I apologize for the format if its out of alignment...again -_-
**MAJOR SPOILER ALERT**
"The Originals" - ep. 2x14 ("I Love You, Goodbye") [
wiki page here] [
CW Extended Promo]

Producer's Preview] [
My Tumblr Page for 2x14]
Synopsis: THE BIG DAY - With the final preparations for her union to Jackson (guest star Nathan Parsons) underway, Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) begins to question whether the ritual will actually work. After arriving to the compound, Elijah (Daniel Gillies) has a tense encounter with Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and quickly suspects that his brother may be up to something. Meanwhile, Kaleb (guest star Daniel Sharman), who is harboring a devastating secret from Davina (Danielle Campbell), seeks help from Rebekah (guest star Maisie Richardson-Sellers) when he realizes time is not on his side. Lastly, Camille (Leah Pipes) makes a startling revelation involving baby Hope. Charles Michael Davis (Marcel) also stars.
Baby Hope has magic! That is what Camille discovers about her!
If Hayley is having doubts does that mean she may not go through with the wedding? I think the episode title is connected to Hayley somehow. Either to her and Elijah or to her and Jackson.
I still have a feeling that Freya will drop in on the wedding.

CREDITS
So that is how Dahlia will know about Hope and Hope is showing magical potenial! Time is running out! At least they have their wolf army in their corners. Also if we think Freya is powerful and she showed her powers at 5 years old, then what does that say about Hope who is less than a year old and already showing signs that she could use magic? Hope is gonna be powerful!
I'm so sad for Kol but I do love that Klaus, Rebekah and Elijah were there for him. I truly hope that Rebekah finds a way to bring Kol back once he joins the Quarter Ancestors. Kol can't die a second time!
See you in a few weeks after this little hiatus!!
New episodes return March 9th!
