Confrontations Everywhere and of All Kinds on TO! (My 2x15 Thoughts)
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. 2x15 ("They All Asked For You") [wiki page here] [CW Extended Promo]
[Producer's Preview] [My Tumblr Page for 2x15]
Synopsis: UNLIKELY ALLIANCES - When a dangerous run-in with a coven of vengeful witches forces Rebekah (guest star Maisie Richardson-Sellers) to align with Marcel (Charles Michael Davis), they quickly discover that the body Rebekah is currently inhabiting has a checkered past. Upon learning that Rebekah is in danger, Elijah (Daniel Gillies) seeks out a respected elder witch, Josephine (guest star Meg Foster), in the hopes she might offer her assistance. Meanwhile, tensions build when Klaus (Joseph Morgan) clashes with Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) and Jackson (guest star Nathan Parsons) over how best to protect baby Hope from Finn (Yusuf Gatewood). Elsewhere, Freya (guest star Riley Voelkel), convinces Finn to bring her to Mikael (guest star Sebastian Roche), the father she hasn’t seen in over a thousand years. Lastly, a confrontation with Freya leaves Elijah and Klaus questioning whether they can trust their long-lost sister.
I really can't wait for the reunions! I can't wait for Mikael's reaction to seeing Freya again...and I definitely can't wait for when Freya meets Klaus and Elijah for the first time (I wonder if she'll test them first before introducing herself like she did with Rebekah). I still wonder if Kol ever truly met Freya as his sister or if she hide that fact from him back in 1914.

CREDITS
While I love the reunion between Mikael/Freya, what is Mikael focused on? Is he now focused on killing Dahlia over killing Klaus? Have their interests finally aligned? Could Freya stop Mikael from killing Klaus?
The hookup between Elijah/Gia was great! I was hoping this would happen since their training season together earlier in the season.
It's interesting that this episode had both Elijah and Hayley hooking up with other people (Gia and Jackson, respectively) when it's only been a few episodes since they hooked up at the safe house in 2x09. How long ago in their timeline is that?
The confrontation between Freya and Klaus was interesting. She brought up that there could be similarities between them while he instantly refused such a thing, that she couldn't possibly relate or understand what he's been through because of their parents. I'm curious as to what she knows about Klaus. I can't wait for them to get to know one another in the next episode.
Now Rebekah's issues with her vessel...Kol really picked one hell of a psychotic vessel for Rebekah. Did he know? The situation is reminding me of Elena fighting off Katherine possessing her in VD 5x12 (or of Tyler fighting off Julian later on in season 5) but I'm wondering how the two situations differ when its almost the same situation. ALMOST.
Freya's spell on Finn...does that mean we won't see Finn again any time soon? Or maybe she won't release Finn (or return him) until Dahlia is dealt with and Hope is safe? I hope Finn is gone. But is Finn inside her amulet now?
I want Kol back. :(
See you next week for a Freya-centric episode with Klaus!
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.
