Ep 6:
Mid-season finale.
Group of criminals. Wesen. They're going after some addresses.
Trubel dreaming. Nightmare. She gasps awake. Nick holding Kelly. Adalind says there's not a lot of privacy here. We named him Kelly. I'm glad you're okay. We're glad. Trubel asks how long have I been here? Last night. You've been asleep for around 25 hours. I'll take over for Nick so you guys can talk. Trubel gets out of bed. Nick asks how she's feeling. Sore and really glad to see you. She asks if someone in the hospital was Wesen. He asks if she's hungry. A lot.
Church bells rings at night. The Wesen cars stop. Bust into stores and vandalize things. Owners run, hide, get attacked. Killed. One woman paints the 4 claw mark symbol.
Trubel says Chavez knew you were a Grimm. They were keeping track of you. They want people like us on their side. They found me with Josh. Hadrian's Wall. Part of the gov't, but so secret, no one knows. They're fighting an underground war against Wesen all over the world. I had to help. HW needs Grimms. I worked with one in Lisbon and heard about one in Bangkok. Adalind asks if they pay. Trubel says yeah, in cash. Nick asks about Meisner. She knows him. Nick says Meisner helped us get you out of the hospital. He asks what did they do with Juliette's body? She doesn't know. She got sent away to do what Grimms do. They've been watching Nick. And Adalind. And they know about the baby. They don't want your kid. Nick asks about the motorcycle. Trubel says it's mine. He wants to see it.
She shows him what the buttons do. Even has internet and satellite tracking of cellphones. She gets emotional. I thought I'd never see you again. Hug. She's still sore. I can't believe you're a dad. Neither can he. Hank calls. She says hi. Hank says we got a big one. A lot of places hit.
Wu and Hank and Nick. 3 neighborhoods hit. 1 shop owner murdered, 1 badly beaten, and one missing. They killed the owner of the flower shop. Why were some shops targeted? Wu has a theory. in the bakery. The mark. Baker came to Portland 3 years ago.
Monroe and Rosalee. Watching the news. They know the baker. What the hell is going on? Knock on the door. It's Bud. He came right here from home. Eugene and Seattle incidents, too. Bud's freaking out.
Baker is taken into their lair. Show him a photo. He doesn't know them. Leader tells him don't lie to me. It's a photo of Monroe!!
Wu looking at witness reports. Hank says they were all wearing black shirts. Why are these gangs working together all of a sudden. Nick brings up the mark. Tells them about the wesen uprising. Rosalee calls Nick. All the victims we know are Wesen. Nick says we found another mark. Nick and Hank on the way to the house.
Adalind and Trubel in the garage. Adalind thought they should get to know each other a bit better. Trubel knows she tried to help Juliette, and that she slept with Nick. Are you in love with Nick? Adalind says that'd be really....too....I don't know what that'd be. Trubel says you're sharing a room. Adalind says we only sleep next to each other because I get scared. You know Meisner? I wouldn't be alive if not for him. Losing Diana was the worst thing that happened to me. Trubel says she'll be okay. Adalind says you don't know the Royals like I do. Did the organization want you to kill Juliette? You went to Nick's place for her, didn't you? Trubel says yeah. Nick doesn't know. Adalind says she won't tell, but you should. Kelly cries.
Monroe and Rosalie and Bud with Nick and Hank. Looking at the photos. Why are Wesen attacking Wesen. Monroe says Free the Hidden. Bud says it looks like a claw mark.
Wu talking to a shop owner. Shows her the mark. She says she doesn't know about it. He goes in the bakery again. Takes a photo of the mark. Hears a noise. Draws his gun. Finds the owner! Help me, help me, please.
Captain recording a video for the candidate. Andrew Dixon is honest, hardworking, and as concerned about this city as I am. Giving his endorsement. They ask him to relax more for the next take. Have fun with it.
The shop. Monroe shows them a riot in a book. Riots are frequently really a Wesen problem. Even the Boston Tea Party. Nick asks if your friend was in a group. No. Wu calls. I have Xavier. He's guarded at the hospital. St. Joe's.
He tells Nick and Hank he never got a good look at them. I ran and ran until I saw the bridge. The guy watching me fell asleep. I picked up a brick and hit him in the head. There was a lot of blood. I ran until I couldn't run anymore. Nick shows him the mark. Xavier says he doesn't recognize it. Nick says we know they attacked you because you're Wesen. He wogues. Eww. Not a pretty one. He says I've heard about you. Nick and Hank say we can protect you, but we need you to identify anyone you can. Wu says there's no hurry. Just say if anyone's familiar. Xavier lies. Then points out the blonde woman. Hmmmm.
Meisner in the bakery.
Nick and Hank update Sean. Nick says I met with Chavez the night she was killed. It was a setup. I tried to save her, but we were outnumbered. Sean says the FBI should never find out. Nick says Chavez said they're coming to Portland. It's war. Sean says bring the girl in.
Line-up. Xavier says he doesn't know. Sean says don't be scared. Xavier says he can't do this.
Have to let her go. Do you want to go at her directly? Hank says she's already asked for a lawyer. Sean asks if they're sure she's the right person. Nick says she's the right one, the witness is just too scared. Sean says get him unscared.
Wesen meeting at the shop. They're freaked out. Monroe tries to calm them. Rosalee says Nick is investigating. Phone rings. Nick. She says everyone's looking for answers. Nick says Xavier is too scared to identify one of them. Come and talk to him.
Nick with Xavier. Rosalee and Monroe arrive. Hank asks to talk to Nick outside. Nick is a friend of ours. He's a good guy, you can trust him. Xavier can tell them she's one of them. But they'll know and they'll kill me. Monroe says what's to stop them from doing this again? Rosalee says Nick will protect you. We've trusted him with our lives many times. Xavier struggles to keep his wogue under control. You really trust him that much? Monroe says you think we'd be here if we didn't? Xavier agrees.
Nick and Hank go at the girl. Billie, you've been positively identified in the kidnapping. She asks for her lawyer. Nick says you're not getting out of this one. Hank cites the charges she'll get. Nick says unless you make a deal. If we walk out, there's no deal. She has nothing to say. Nick says I know you're Wesen and you're friends are Wesen. She says you're a cop. hank says I'm a cop, he's a Grimm. She freaks and wogues. I'll start screaming! Nick says if I was going to kill you, it wouldn't be here and we wouldn't be talking. Hank says give us a name. Offers her probation and witness protection. Nick says one name, Billie. She says Dallas Cruise.
She calls Dallas. Says they let her out. He says meet me at the factory. Nick tells her to draw it. You're taking us there. She says no, you can't make me do that. Sean says yeah they can and wogues. Wu is startled. Poor guy seeing the Zauberbiest for the first time.
Nick asks where is the factory. Off Lombard. She marks the building. Where are the doors? She marks that, too. Windows? up high. Will they see you when you drive up? Not in the back.
Meisner says let's go. Let's a woman out of the cell. Hmmm.
Rosalee knows Dallas Cruise. Nearly killed her friends years ago. Monroe wants to go with Nick and co. Rosalee wants to take Xavier home. Wu will tell him. Sean says Monroe, you'll ride with me.
Rosalee and Xavier in the car.
They stop Billie's car. Ready to go in.
Rosalee asks if they told him why they took you? He doesn't want to talk about it. She says they'll get Cruise and the rest of them. Xavier says they're crazy. She says I thought you said they didn't talk to you. How do you know what they'll do? What's wrong? Tell me. He cries. Why did you let Monroe go with them. She yells at him to tell her right now what's going on. Xavier says I didn't have a choice, they made me! She stops the car. Did you set them up? You son of a bitch! She punches him.
Nick tells Billie she doesn'rt seem worried. Monroe gets a call from Rosalee. It's a trap! Billie runs. Wesen come out. Sean gets everyone in a building. Rosalee asks what's happening. He's attacked and drops the phone. She can only listen to the fighting.
They get in a room. Trapped. Wesen try coming in from above. Nick says we need to conserve ammo. They hear deaths outside the room. Then it's quiet. Nick's going out.
The Wesen are dead. Except one. And Cruise attacks Nick. He's levitated by.......and then dropped. A woman. Juliette in a wig! She disappears.
Next ep - A global plan. War. Council is dead. Find more keys. Going to the Black Forest.

Ep 9:
Mid-season finale.
Rebekah speaking. Being daggered is like a deep, dreamless sleep. But this dagger makes sure I feel everything. Elijah paid to have the box dredged out of the Gulf. They open the box. Elijah arrives. Kills all the men. Got blood on himself. He pulls the dagger out of Rebekah. She sits up. Hello, Sister. She says tell me I didn't miss Christmas.
Camille watching a woman bleed in a glass to feed Klaus. He says you seem better. She says yeah. Thanks. For giving me space to not talk. Why didn't you go with Elijah? He says it's not good for us to spend hours in confined spaces. Her phone buzzes. Vincent. She says I have to go.
Marcel finds Tristan in his bar. Tristan says what's yours is ours as a Strix. The bar is a neutral space. Marcel says no one's eager to step up as Regent. Tristan says we do not wait for that. He has a candidate. Van. I made an offer. He'll use his powers to do as I ask.
Camille is jumpy. Vincent says Kinney got fired last week. He's not leaving his house. She'll talk to him. Thank you.
Haley finds Jackson. She thought he'd eventually come home. He asks if she loves Elijah. Tell me the truth for once. I've fought for you, stood by you, loved you. And seeing you is the best thing I've ever seen. What kind of fool does that make me? She says I chose you and I choose you again every single day. Can't that be enough? It's our first Christmas. Haven't had a happy one before. I want a quiet night with you and Hope. I don't care if their house is on fire. Please, please come home. He says okay. I'll meet you there. Go on.
Aurora stumbles out. Tristan has been drugging her again. He says he's taking care of things. Following Freya.
Rebekah changed clothes. She's mad. Elijah's gassing the car. She says you don't believe the prophecy, do you? He might. She says I'd never harm you and he's the same. He trusts Freya. So that leaves Nik. Has he learned his lesson about backstabbing family? Elijah says he continues to learn it every day. Heh. She vamps. Says don't you want to rip out his heart sometimes? Gasps in pain. Reveals a mark on her arm. A skull like on the dagger. She wants a cure for Christmas.

Will wants to kill himself. Cami says it's Lucien's compulsion. Is there anything you can do, Klaus, please! He says invite me in.
Hayley arrives. Gives Freya blood. She says they took it. I was meeting with a witch. The only way to get rid of it is to use it. Elijah says we have an urgent problem. Rebekah says to be clear, I am the prettiest urgent problem you've seen.
Marcel tells Vincent that Van is ascending to regent for the Strix. Yeah, witches and vampires have been fighting for power, but we are New Orleans. He keeps poking Vincent until Vincent blows the lights. I've been holding back my power for a long time. Today that stops. I'm going to take back the Regency, Marcel, but you're not going to like what I do with it. Marcel grins.
Klaus talks to Will. There is beauty in the courage of the fragile fighter. Those who believe there is good in the world. Dark things find we need that light the most. He compels him You Do Matter. Have you a family? Will says a sister in Baton Rouge. Klaus tells him Go to her. Enjoy Christmas. In the New Year, your captain will welcome you back. Tomorrow will be better. Tomorrow better still. You will go on.
Freya tells Rebekah that the curse will turn her into a Ripper. Elijah asks if she can fix it. Freya says she needs time and a hell of a lot of magic. She passes out. Jackson says She was fine, Hayley healed her. Elijah finds a mark of poison. This is an assassination attempt.
**I do love when Klaus can be kind. He appreciates humanity when he's not being a monster. The complexity of all his facets makes him - and the other Originals - such good characters. When his heart is revealed, it shows what he could've been under different circumstances.
Freya wakes. I feel weak. Elijah says there is an antidote. Freya says what she needs for Rebekah. I'll channel Finn. Rebekah's thrilled. Freya says you and I are out of options, Sister.
Camille says Will is packing. Klaus says it was nothing. She says it was not nothing. Elijah calls him.
Freya chants over the amulet. Finn says it isn't worth it, Sister. She says it is. It's complicated.
Klaus will go to Lucien. Camille tells him to go. I'll be fine. He says no. I can't be worried about you. The safest place for you is with me. Please.
Hayley and Rebekah. Hug. Hayley says Cami has been staying the past few nights. Jackson and I have our own place now. Rebekah says cruel things. Hayley says this isn't you. Rebekah says where do you stand? Are you friend? Family? She attacks Hayley. Perhaps you've been a foe all along.
Freya keeps chanting. Finn says let them all go. It'll be the two of us again. She pleads to him. Elijah says stop, please. She says help me or get out. He offers blood. Finn says just this once for you.

**That was nicely gruesome, heh. 20 minutes left. Intense episode!
Hope playing with something. Jackson asks Hayley if she's ready to go. She apologizes. I promised we'd spend the night alone. Yet here we are. He says today it was me that saw their house on fire and decided to not let it burn. He says it was instinct. They fought like hell to protect each other today and I respect that. I was born to love you, hayley, and if I have to deal with the Mikaelsons, okay. She kisses him.
Downstairs, Christmas around the tree. Hayley and Jackson come down with Hope. Elijah kisses Hope. Klaus thanks Jackson for helping Freya. Rebekah has a fire lit. It's tradition. Writing our wishes and burn them for luck. At the brazier. Klaus says they can't know we found you, Rebekah. She can't stay. She looks at the family. It's okay. My wish already came true. We have this moment. They hold hands.
Marcel cleaning up glass. Tristan says don't you have someone to spend the holiday with? Van has been rejected by the Ancestors. Who is the new Regent? Marcel says Vincent Griffith. Have a Merry Christmas, now.
Treats and toys. Rebekah has her coat on. Tells Freya to take care of our brothers. God knows they need it. Kisses Hope. Apologizes to Hayley. When I left last, I thought you'd hate Klaus forever. Hayley says even when you hate him.... Klaus hugs Rebekah. You're always leaving. She says I always come back. he says run far and fast. And should you meet some handsome fool, know your weakness. She tells him to run toward love. He and Camille exchange glances.
Freya snuck into a ball here 100 years ago. Talking with Elijah. I know this hasn't been your most elegant family Christmas, but it's the best I've ever had.
Klaus finds Camille on the balcony. She says don't say tired. He says he was going to say contemplative. Penny for your thoughts. She was thinking about what rebekah said. Is she right? I've lost count of the times you've saved me and the people you care about. Today you saved someone you don't. Why? He says because you wished it. I don't wish to watch you behind glass, Camille. She asks what does he wish? He kisses her. They giggle.
Freya has lost her amulet.
Vincent needs all the guidance he can get. Tristan congratulates him. I love cemeteries. Churches celebrate fairytales. Cemeteries hold concrete proof that you can't be saved from the inevitable. Vincent says he will enforce justice on vampires. So you keep watching me, but know for sure I'm watching you, too. Tristan says that's very brave. He has the amulet. Do as I ask, or Finn Mikaelson will.
Elijah with Rebekah. She called him.
Klaus and Camille at the bed.
rebekah shows him the mark is back. He says Freya can try something else. She says what if we run out of time? I don't want to run. Hide my body and don't tell a soul. Let Nick be happy for once.
Klaus and Cami making out.
Rebekah says when the year is over, have Freya cure me and throw a party. When I'm buried, the prophecy is over. Do it, Elijah! Do it! She forces him to dagger her. He weeps.
Cami wakes up and smiles at Klaus. He's asleep. She rolls over.
Aurora plays the piano. Tristan joins her. Beautiful. You should play more. She says I never stop. She had a good day.
Klaus wakes up. A bloody hand. Camille's throat is bloody. Klaus gathers her close and screams into the night.
Jan. 29 - Vengeance. Klaus says these attacks must stop!

Valerie in the house. Mary says Julian's not here. Is he coming back? None of your concern. Valerie's just grabbing her stuff. Mary says this fracturing is your fault. Valerie says it's not a story.

Damon and Stefan walking the town. Sunberry. Damon needs more eggnog. Into another pub. Full of dead Santas. Merry Christmas, Brother. Think we found him.
**Geeze, Julian, you kill a bunch of Santas of all things? Way to draw attention to yourself and make a spectacle. That'll definitely make the news when people find out.
**Pride, Prejudice, and Zombies movie commercial. Heh. February.
Damon turns the open sign off. Stefan says maybe if we hadn't stopped at every bar on the way here.... Damon says look around, Julian is clearly off the rails. Stop and think about some back-up. Stefan says you are my back-up! Damon calls Bonnie. He asks about a more accurate address. Need some info. Bonnie will text him in a bit.

Stefan asks Damon when the denial phase is going to end. Damon says death lets me care about her even less. Julian enters the pub. Hello, boys. I misplaced my cell phone. Finds it. Damon says we thought you had a maniacal plan, but you're just a drunk that lost a cell phone. Julian says it's been a rough few weeks. Stefan says she meant nothing to you. Julian says she meant everything to me! He brings out the sword. The completed sword transfers the vampire's spirit into this nasty stone. Creates your own personal hell. I spent over 100 years inside. I had Lily back in my life. She was the only thing that kept me sane. Damon says that was you sane? That it was. But now? These have been dark days for me.
Nora says this town is where he used to live. It's not safe.
Julian remembered his old life. A good life. I was surrounded by friends. People enter. Boys are outnumbered. Guess Damon was right about needing more back-up to go after Julian, huh?

Nora and Mary Louise in private. Mary wants an apology. Nora says Julian is the reason Lily's dead. Mary says Valerie's story is responsible. Nora says he's a liar, why can't you see that? Mary is tired of fighting. Nora's done. It's over. Mary says you've been wanting this a long time. Took you no time to move on. Nora says you're too scared to change. When's the last time you gave out some charity? Mary says when I started dating you. Storms out.
Damon says we need to get in the car and go. Stefan doesn't want to. Julian is planning something. Damon says that's a hornet nest, a suicide mission. Stefan says Julian would've been dead already, but you wanted to punish Lily. How difficult would it have been to say something nice? She was dying, Damon. You're acting like a spoiled brat. A coward. You had a chance to make things right, and you still do. Damon says he's going home.
Valerie has the journal. Stefan calls. I'm headed home. Damon bailed on me. He thinks I'm overreacting. Valerie says I should've gone with you. He asks if she's seen Mary Louise.
She's at a bar. Stefan says you've had enough. You look like you could use a friend. Things with Nora didn't go well, did they? Valerie drugs Mary. Stefan snaps a photo. Stay with her until Julian is dead.
Bonnie finds Nora in her room. Crying. Bonnie asks what she sees in Mary Louise. Nora says she's loving, protective, kind. Bonnie says just to you. Nora says that's fair. Maybe I'm spoiled, or old-fashioned, but it's nice having that person that loves you and thinks you're amazing. Maybe you don't. Bonnie says I don't need someone to tell me I'm pretty. Nora says it does feel good to hear it. You're a kind person, and beautiful. Julian texts her that Mary has been taken hostage. I was wrong. You and your friends aren't nice at all. She grabs Bonnie and siphons her power.
Damon in the house. Fireplace. Julian asks where is she. i came alone. Where is Mary Louise? Damon is surprised Stefan kidnapped Mary Louise. Julian threatens him with the sword. Damon says we have no beef. Julian says right, you don't care. You're burning her clothes, trying to erase her existence. Damon needs closet space. Julian says I knew her love for you would get her killed. It's easy for you, isn't it. You don't have to take responsibility for her death. Damon says she killed herself. Julian knocks him down. I hope whatever Hell this sword puts you in, she's there. Stefan tosses Julian, saving Damon. Julian runs off.
13 minutes left. Stefan, if you ask Julian to come to the house, make sure you're brother isn't going to be ambushed, okay? Oy.
Caroline out in the snow. Visits her mother's grave with a wreath. This is my first Christmas without you. That sucks. I still got you something. 2 somethings. I'll spare you the details of how. But it's happening. I'm pregnant. I pictured this conversation much differently, obviously. I was human and you were alive. I know they're not mine. They're still my responsibility and I have to do this right, and I have no idea what I'm doing. All I want to do is sit on our kitchen counter and ask you a million questions. God, I miss you.
They find Julian in the house. Attack him. Julian throws Stefan, then beats on Damon. I would've killed you on sight if it wasn't for your mother. Stefan gets back in it. Julian stakes him. Damon tries to save him and gets stabbed with the sword. He falls. Stefan watches in horror. Julian says now I'll run. Stefan pulls the wood out of his gut. Damon? Damon?
7 minutes. Damon's in the Phoenix Stone now. Wonder how long he'll be in there?
Valerie waiting. Opens the journal. Someone opens a door. Who's there? She's in the hospital. Mary Louise is gone.
Caroline reaches Stefan. Oh my God. He says Damon wanted me to let it go. I should've let it go. I couldn't. She says she was your mom, Stefan. It's not easy to let that go. Let's figure out a way to save your brother.
Caroline calls Bonnie.
We need to call Valerie. Stefan says Damon won't make it in there.
Damon in the Civil War. He gets up. Gut shot. In the middle of battle in the woods. He's terrified.
She says he'll survive this. Nora says he'll be different. Just like you. She stabs Stefan with the sword!
Holy crap! Next ep in January. Bonnie brought Damon back 3 months later. Or did she?

image credit: the CW
Ep 9:
A fountain. A man preaches to some gathered people. Amara is all grown up. You think God is watching? He says only the chosen will be raised to Heaven. She says He's not interested. Doesn't even seem to be around. I've searched. She turns the water to blood. Then a storm starts. He asks if she's God. She says He's not the only game in town. She zaps all the people with lightning. Burnt up corpses. Well?
Sam wakes in the cage. With Lucifer. Lucifer touches Sam's face. Vision. Sam sees a burning bush.
Dean says this is crazy. It's not going to happen. Sam says what else do we have? The visions only happen when I reach out to God! Listen, Lucifer touches me and I feel calm, like things will be alright. That's the last thing I'd think of. Dean asks why would God ask this of you. What proof do we have? Sam says there was a burning bush. Dean says sometimes bushes burn in the forest. Maybe there's something to it and maybe not. Sam says Lucifer was there when God ended the Darkness.
Sam talks to Crowley, with Dean. Is it possible to get to the Cage? Dean says the Darkness will pound on everything. Crowley says you couldn't control your girlfriend. Why did she insist on sparing you? What is she to you? Dean says God's sister. Crowley is surprised. Dean asks can Sam meet with Lucifer or not? Sam says in the cage. We can't let him out. Crowley says there may be a way.
The cage. Lucifer grins. Oh boy.
Crowley says if Sam enters the cage, he's gone. Need a secure site. A way to neutralize Lucifer's powers in Hell. Dean says if Sam isn't safe, it's not happening. Crowley says theoretically. The Cage was sealed by God Himself. The spells were recorded in the Book of the Damned.
A church. Bells toll. Priest greets people. Amara asks if he's in charge. I'm looking for God. An actual meeting in a room. Priest says this is the right place. The way to reach Him is through prayer. She kneels and prays, but says it's not working. Priest says He heard you. She says you've seen Him? He says no, no one alive. That's faith. She says you only believe what He wants you to believe. You don't know what He's like. The Priest says we do. God is the Light and it is the Light that vanquishes the Darkness.
Rowena in chains brought to Crowley. So, Fergus, think you've won? She threatens him. he says stow it, you lying bitch. If I wanted to kill you, I'd have done it. Dean and Sam enter. She says that's beneath even you. Dean says we have bigger fish to fry. She brings up the Darkness. I've heard whispers. Dean says we can cork it back up. She doesn't trust them. Crowley says none of us do. It's a devil's bargain.
Angel grunts want to stick together. The Darkness will come after Heaven. They says it's on God to make this right. You tell Him that next time you see Him. Ooops, He's not around. You don't think she wants to get even? Our leaders only pit factions against each other. This is in our laps. Spread the word. We stand united and move now!
Rowena wants to know what's in it for her. Crowley will make a deal. Pitch in and I'll call off my assassins. She needs the Codex and the code breaker. Dean says we need to open the Cage and how to protect Sam. She asks what's in it? Sam says Lucifer. She says let's get to it, then.
Church. Statues broken. People dead. Amara sucks the priest's soul. Then kills him, too. She talks up to God. Do you see what's happening? All your chosen are suffering! SHOW YOURSELF!
Dean at the church. Sam is with Rowena. Dean says the cops said the victims were talking to a mystery woman. Amara's upping her game. Dean asks if he's okay? Sam says no, but what choice do we have. Dean says wait for me. Don't do anything without me.
Rowena says you trust like a chicken. Sam says you think I'm going to set you free? Do I look crazy? Get back to work. We're running out of time. She says aha! I need some ingredients. Tell Fergus to bring a handcart. We're going to Hell.
Dean stops hearing sound. He walks to a park. Looks around. Hotdog man asks if he wants one. Sam calls Dean. Dean lets it ring. Turns around and sees Amara.
Rowena says Fergus is coming. Sam says I promised Dean I'd call. She says it's now or never.
Amara says you felt my presence. That's why you came here. She smiles at him. Then Dean is in the wilderness. He says you grew up. She says yes. This is her today.
Hell. Crowley and Rowena and Sam. She says it's not as scenic as I expected. Crowley says this is the furthest reaches of Hell.
A cage. Rowena paints symbols on it. Sam says the place suits you. Dark. Empty. The point of this is to save everyone's bacon. Hope she knows what she's doing. Rowena says we're about to find out, aren't we? She chants. Fire surrounds the empty cage. She chants to the Cage. Crowley says it begins.
Amara says you misunderstand my purpose. I had to get His attention. I tried praying. Calling out in need. He ignored me. He forced my hand. I had no other reason to harm His chosen. My issue is with my brother, not His creation. Dean says that's your mess. Between you two. You're taking lives. Souls. She says the souls are part of me. They live forever.
Fire rises. Lucifer in the cage. Glowing eyes. He comes forward. My old friend Crowley. You're too kind, to yourself. What do you want of me? Sam comes in view. Lucifer says my old roomie. How can I help?
Lucifer's in the dark about this meeting. Am I up for parole? Time off for bad behavior? I don't get visitors. Sam says if not the crisis topside, you wouldn't have one now. Rowena has a crush. Sam asks him about the Darkness. She's been released. She's on Earth. Lucifer asks how? Sam says she poses a threat to all that exists, including you. Lucifer asks where's the Big Burrito himself? Where's God? Sam says there are no current indications of His presence. Lucifer says figures. Sam says He's reached out to an interested party. Me. He answered my prayers. Lucifer asks what was Dad's suggestion? Sam says to seek out you. Lucifer says whodathunk it?
Amara doesn't blame Dean for the mistrust. He was so threatened by me. So He exiled me. Passed on stories that I was a threat. His way or the highway. Dean says some people find comfort in His rules. She says what if there were no rules? No pain. Just bliss. That feeling you have when you're with me. For everyone. Forever.
Lucifer says I get why you came to me. Can't ignore God, right? Sam asks if he's on board. Lucifer says I did help Dad all those years ago. She's prone to tantrums. I can see why Pop is laying low.
Crowley hopes Sam is smart enough to not strike a deal.
Lucifer says God's not the only circus in town. She has none of the experience of God. He's a master strategist. That's why you're here. Sam says and? Lucifer says I need a ride out of here. Sam says you want a vessel. Lucifer says one who's strong enough to hold me. handy and available now. Catch my drift?
Dean asks what's in it for her? She says everything. I'm the beginning and end. God was the light. I am the dark. Dean says then what? She says that's all you need to know for now. He tries to stab her. The angel blade shatters. She says you had to know that's pointless. I can't be resisted. She grabs his face. Kisses him. He kisses back!
Sam says did you really expect me to agree? I disappear while you take my body and walk the Earth again? That's certifiable! Lucifer says you passed certifiable 3 off ramps ago. Here I am, ready to pitch in. God sent you to me to get my help. Sam, your visions were the word of God, you can't say no to that.
Dean backs up. What was that? She says the future. The inevitable. We're bonded. You set me free. He says that was an accident. She says it was destiny. You and I will be together. Dean says no, that's not going to happen. She says we'll become one. Why wouldn't you want that? Angels arrive. You will submit to the judgment of Heaven. She says tell God to deal with me Himself. Angel says all o Heaven will strike the Earth if they have to. Dean says whoa, dial it down. You'll kill a lot of people! Amara attacks an angel. Then makes another stab himself. The third blows up. Dean asks what have you done? Storm clouds arrive. Dean says He will smite you. She says maybe now He'll hear me. She sends Dean away. Stands in the eye of the storm. Light power comes down on her.
**Crowley and Rowena are hilarious in the cheap seats.
Park. Dean by the hotdog stand.
Lucifer asks Sam if he has an invitation? Sam says no. I won't do it. There has to be another way. The symbols stop glowing. The fire dies. Crowley goes down there. Why did the warding fail? What's happening? Sam is in the Cage! Lucifer comes closer. You're calm given the circumstances. Sam says this is how God told me it'd be. Lucifer says it wasn't God doing the talking. The Cage was damaged. I reached out. It wasn't God inside your head, Sam. it was me. So you see. He's not with you. Never been with you. Just me. So I guess I am your only hope. Sam says it's never going to happen. Lucifer says settle in there, body. Lower bunk, upper bunk? Or do you want to share?
9:56pm. All that happened, and the ep was still not that long.
Next ep - January. Christmas! Jan. 20.

Sam talks to Crowley, with Dean. Is it possible to get to the Cage? Dean says the Darkness will pound on everything. Crowley says you couldn't control your girlfriend. Why did she insist on sparing you? What is she to you? Dean says God's sister. Crowley is surprised. Dean asks can Sam meet with Lucifer or not? Sam says in the cage. We can't let him out. Crowley says there may be a way.
The cage. Lucifer grins. Oh boy.
Crowley says if Sam enters the cage, he's gone. Need a secure site. A way to neutralize Lucifer's powers in Hell. Dean says if Sam isn't safe, it's not happening. Crowley says theoretically. The Cage was sealed by God Himself. The spells were recorded in the Book of the Damned.
A church. Bells toll. Priest greets people. Amara asks if he's in charge. I'm looking for God. An actual meeting in a room. Priest says this is the right place. The way to reach Him is through prayer. She kneels and prays, but says it's not working. Priest says He heard you. She says you've seen Him? He says no, no one alive. That's faith. She says you only believe what He wants you to believe. You don't know what He's like. The Priest says we do. God is the Light and it is the Light that vanquishes the Darkness.
Rowena in chains brought to Crowley. So, Fergus, think you've won? She threatens him. he says stow it, you lying bitch. If I wanted to kill you, I'd have done it. Dean and Sam enter. She says that's beneath even you. Dean says we have bigger fish to fry. She brings up the Darkness. I've heard whispers. Dean says we can cork it back up. She doesn't trust them. Crowley says none of us do. It's a devil's bargain.
Angel grunts want to stick together. The Darkness will come after Heaven. They says it's on God to make this right. You tell Him that next time you see Him. Ooops, He's not around. You don't think she wants to get even? Our leaders only pit factions against each other. This is in our laps. Spread the word. We stand united and move now!
Rowena wants to know what's in it for her. Crowley will make a deal. Pitch in and I'll call off my assassins. She needs the Codex and the code breaker. Dean says we need to open the Cage and how to protect Sam. She asks what's in it? Sam says Lucifer. She says let's get to it, then.
Church. Statues broken. People dead. Amara sucks the priest's soul. Then kills him, too. She talks up to God. Do you see what's happening? All your chosen are suffering! SHOW YOURSELF!
Dean at the church. Sam is with Rowena. Dean says the cops said the victims were talking to a mystery woman. Amara's upping her game. Dean asks if he's okay? Sam says no, but what choice do we have. Dean says wait for me. Don't do anything without me.
Rowena says you trust like a chicken. Sam says you think I'm going to set you free? Do I look crazy? Get back to work. We're running out of time. She says aha! I need some ingredients. Tell Fergus to bring a handcart. We're going to Hell.
Dean stops hearing sound. He walks to a park. Looks around. Hotdog man asks if he wants one. Sam calls Dean. Dean lets it ring. Turns around and sees Amara.
Rowena says Fergus is coming. Sam says I promised Dean I'd call. She says it's now or never.
Amara says you felt my presence. That's why you came here. She smiles at him. Then Dean is in the wilderness. He says you grew up. She says yes. This is her today.
Hell. Crowley and Rowena and Sam. She says it's not as scenic as I expected. Crowley says this is the furthest reaches of Hell.
A cage. Rowena paints symbols on it. Sam says the place suits you. Dark. Empty. The point of this is to save everyone's bacon. Hope she knows what she's doing. Rowena says we're about to find out, aren't we? She chants. Fire surrounds the empty cage. She chants to the Cage. Crowley says it begins.
Amara says you misunderstand my purpose. I had to get His attention. I tried praying. Calling out in need. He ignored me. He forced my hand. I had no other reason to harm His chosen. My issue is with my brother, not His creation. Dean says that's your mess. Between you two. You're taking lives. Souls. She says the souls are part of me. They live forever.
Fire rises. Lucifer in the cage. Glowing eyes. He comes forward. My old friend Crowley. You're too kind, to yourself. What do you want of me? Sam comes in view. Lucifer says my old roomie. How can I help?
Lucifer's in the dark about this meeting. Am I up for parole? Time off for bad behavior? I don't get visitors. Sam says if not the crisis topside, you wouldn't have one now. Rowena has a crush. Sam asks him about the Darkness. She's been released. She's on Earth. Lucifer asks how? Sam says she poses a threat to all that exists, including you. Lucifer asks where's the Big Burrito himself? Where's God? Sam says there are no current indications of His presence. Lucifer says figures. Sam says He's reached out to an interested party. Me. He answered my prayers. Lucifer asks what was Dad's suggestion? Sam says to seek out you. Lucifer says whodathunk it?
Amara doesn't blame Dean for the mistrust. He was so threatened by me. So He exiled me. Passed on stories that I was a threat. His way or the highway. Dean says some people find comfort in His rules. She says what if there were no rules? No pain. Just bliss. That feeling you have when you're with me. For everyone. Forever.
Lucifer says I get why you came to me. Can't ignore God, right? Sam asks if he's on board. Lucifer says I did help Dad all those years ago. She's prone to tantrums. I can see why Pop is laying low.
Crowley hopes Sam is smart enough to not strike a deal.
Lucifer says God's not the only circus in town. She has none of the experience of God. He's a master strategist. That's why you're here. Sam says and? Lucifer says I need a ride out of here. Sam says you want a vessel. Lucifer says one who's strong enough to hold me. handy and available now. Catch my drift?
Dean asks what's in it for her? She says everything. I'm the beginning and end. God was the light. I am the dark. Dean says then what? She says that's all you need to know for now. He tries to stab her. The angel blade shatters. She says you had to know that's pointless. I can't be resisted. She grabs his face. Kisses him. He kisses back!
Sam says did you really expect me to agree? I disappear while you take my body and walk the Earth again? That's certifiable! Lucifer says you passed certifiable 3 off ramps ago. Here I am, ready to pitch in. God sent you to me to get my help. Sam, your visions were the word of God, you can't say no to that.
Dean backs up. What was that? She says the future. The inevitable. We're bonded. You set me free. He says that was an accident. She says it was destiny. You and I will be together. Dean says no, that's not going to happen. She says we'll become one. Why wouldn't you want that? Angels arrive. You will submit to the judgment of Heaven. She says tell God to deal with me Himself. Angel says all o Heaven will strike the Earth if they have to. Dean says whoa, dial it down. You'll kill a lot of people! Amara attacks an angel. Then makes another stab himself. The third blows up. Dean asks what have you done? Storm clouds arrive. Dean says He will smite you. She says maybe now He'll hear me. She sends Dean away. Stands in the eye of the storm. Light power comes down on her.
**Crowley and Rowena are hilarious in the cheap seats.
Park. Dean by the hotdog stand.
Lucifer asks Sam if he has an invitation? Sam says no. I won't do it. There has to be another way. The symbols stop glowing. The fire dies. Crowley goes down there. Why did the warding fail? What's happening? Sam is in the Cage! Lucifer comes closer. You're calm given the circumstances. Sam says this is how God told me it'd be. Lucifer says it wasn't God doing the talking. The Cage was damaged. I reached out. It wasn't God inside your head, Sam. it was me. So you see. He's not with you. Never been with you. Just me. So I guess I am your only hope. Sam says it's never going to happen. Lucifer says settle in there, body. Lower bunk, upper bunk? Or do you want to share?
9:56pm. All that happened, and the ep was still not that long.
Next ep - January. Christmas! Jan. 20.

Mid-season finale.
The planet. Clear sky. Ward's team still has Fitz. Fitz looking around. Ward wants to know what's wrong. We have less than 6 hours to find the portal and go home. Fitz tells him to shut up and let him think. Hits Ward. Ward hits him. If I don't make it back, Simmons will be killed. That what you want? Fitz says Malick sent you because you're expendable. A soldier calls out he saw something. Hydra logo thing.
Quinjet. Returning to the bus. Mack asks what Coulson was thinking. Hunter says I was planning on jumping as well. bobbi says Coulson went to get our people. We only have to take control of the castle and open the portal so they can return. Daisy says get up here.
Trucks unloaded. Inhumans. 10 or 12 of those gel containers. New guy asks what's the plan. Hunter says this is the part when the plan turns to rubbish. Mack tells them all the shut up a second. The only way to take the castle is with no gunfire and no backup. 2 infil teams. One to secure the portal and one to rescue Fitz or Simmons. Go.
Malick and Guyera. Simmons says you're wrong. Calculations off. Malick thanks her. She says I'm not doing it for you. Malick says death is the only think coming through that portal.
Daisy wonders how they power the castle. Aqueducts. We can slip into the compound. Mack gives orders.
Fitz complaining. How do you find the hell beast? Blood, right. He says I think that's the ridge we're looking for. Simmons said that thing can drive people crazy. Ward says you're doing a good job of that yourself. Fitz drops into Will's bunker. Wakes him. Ward comes in. Fitz says this is Will. He's going to be our guide. Heh......
Coulson dreaming. Waking up with Ros. I thought I'd lost you. She says nope, I'm here. We overslept. Now you need to get up. He suggests staying here for a while instead. She says it's time.

Fitz tells him to shut up and let him think. Hits Ward. Ward hits him. If I don't make it back, Simmons will be killed. That what you want? Fitz says Malick sent you because you're expendable. A soldier calls out he saw something. Hydra logo thing.
Quinjet. Returning to the bus. Mack asks what Coulson was thinking. Hunter says I was planning on jumping as well. bobbi says Coulson went to get our people. We only have to take control of the castle and open the portal so they can return. Daisy says get up here.
Trucks unloaded. Inhumans. 10 or 12 of those gel containers. New guy asks what's the plan. Hunter says this is the part when the plan turns to rubbish. Mack tells them all the shut up a second. The only way to take the castle is with no gunfire and no backup. 2 infil teams. One to secure the portal and one to rescue Fitz or Simmons. Go.
Malick and Guyera. Simmons says you're wrong. Calculations off. Malick thanks her. She says I'm not doing it for you. Malick says death is the only think coming through that portal.
Daisy wonders how they power the castle. Aqueducts. We can slip into the compound. Mack gives orders.
Fitz complaining. How do you find the hell beast? Blood, right. He says I think that's the ridge we're looking for. Simmons said that thing can drive people crazy. Ward says you're doing a good job of that yourself. Fitz drops into Will's bunker. Wakes him. Ward comes in. Fitz says this is Will. He's going to be our guide. Heh......
Coulson dreaming. Waking up with Ros. I thought I'd lost you. She says nope, I'm here. We overslept. Now you need to get up. He suggests staying here for a while instead. She says it's time.

She can't keep the secret anymore. Francine was pregnant when she left us. She had a son, my brother. Barry asks his name. Wally. Wally West. I told her to leave and never come back and never tell Dad, but I feel like I'm hurting him. I don't know what to do. Barry says you have to tell him. But we can tell him together. He hugs her.

I hated not being able to help her, so it was easier for her to be out of our lives. But I was being selfish. That poor boy didn't have a father. To make him feel safe and loved. Who taught him how to be a man, Barry? I can't even say his name. What have I done? Barry says you have been there for me every day since I met you. You would've done the same for him if you could've. I'm sorry.
Captain asks Patty where Joe is. She doesn't know. Trickster on the TV. How is he doing this? Trickster says this is a time for disembowling our enemies. What do you say, speed freak? Want to roast chestnuts?

Stefan says Julian dies today. Everything has to be normal. Stefan says we get Julian's blood and a Heretic will unlink Lily. End of story. Enzo doesn't think they'll help.
Julian and the kids burning breakfast.
Enzo says the Heretics won't turn on Julian. Stefan says we employ the nuclear option. Valerie. She'll tell them the truth.
Lily asks what's the occasion? Mary and Nora have been together 133 years. Julian says it was Lily's idea to host your anniversary party tonight. The girls says she's boring. Julian says you're in for a wonderful surprise. Lily agrees.
Caroline writes about the twins in her journal to Elena. Phone buzzes. It's Matt. The stockpiled people are gone. He asks her to come with. She says Valerie was right. I'm pregnant. She hasn't told Stefan, yet.
Enzo finds Lily. Library? Lily's looking for a gift, a poem. The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd. Enzo knows it, recites it to her. She's charmed. He hands her the book. He tells her to run, leave town with me, and let your sons carry out their plan. She says I can't run from this. it's my doing. He says you're not safe. Come with me. She says I can't. But if you could? If I could..... He kisses her. She kisses him back. He says good luck, Lily. You need it. And leaves.
Julian brings Nora and Mary to their party blindfolded. Full of people. They've all been compelled to see to your every desire. Let's have a drink to celebrate. Lily arrives and she's upset. Julian tells her to loosen up. She says the rule is that we feed on trespassers. Nora wants to bail. Lily makes an exception for a special occasion. Mary and Nora feed.
**Can Lily resist the temptation of all that blood? This is a very stressful night for her, poor thing.
Stefan gets a text from Lily. Damon, let's do this. Caroline shows up. Damon and Valerie come to the door. Valerie says Damon and I will go and Stefan can follow. Caroline says we need to talk. She gets him a drink. She knows the magical baby transplant is crazy, but..... He doesn't have words. Yeah. He says I have to go. We have to talk more, but we have a small window to get to Julian tonight. She knows it's bad timing. He says we'll talk about it when I get back, promise.
Mary pulls Julian away to show him an engagement ring for Nora. She's really nervous. Julian says it's tiny. You deserve something better. He gives her a ring from French royalty. I'm so happy for you both.
Nora gets the book from Lily. She thanks her. I love it. Julian says guess who. Nora leaves them alone. Julian asks to dance. Lily doesn't know how to dance to this music. The DJ switches songs. Julian asks if she recognizes it. Beau's voice! She says he used to sing so beautifully. Julian says almost like old times. You haven't been indulging in the real fun. She says I'm content with blood bags. He says you're afraid of going all in. That hope of being one big family is causing friction. You have all the love you need right here. Accept it. Come back to us, Lily. Let go. He brings a woman to her. Lily bites, then sees Damon. Wipes her mouth and looks guilty.
**Julian's an awful enabler of sins. I'd love to see Elijah deal with him. Wouldn't that be delightful?
Lily meets Damon outside. She says I had to. Have to convince them I'm on their side. Damon says the plan is postponed. She says no, no, no. Damon says Julian dies tonight, but it doesn't bother him if she dies, too. He's only here because Stefan is a Mama's boy. She slaps him. He says you're already dead to me. I moved on. I'd have left you in that prison world.
Mary and Nora. Nora reads the poem. Mary opens the ring box. Marry me. 133 years is not enough, Nora. I want eternity. Nora says yes! Of course yes! They kiss. She puts the ring on Nora. They kiss again. Valerie says I'm happy for you two. We need to talk, about the worst moment of my life.
Matt finds Enzo feeding. Enzo lets her run away. Matt says what the hell is wrong with you? Enzo says I didn't get the girl. Don't think the life saving business suits you, mate. Matt says no one wants you. What are you still doing here? Enzo asks him the same. You're overmatched. You've brought a knife to a gun fight and it's going to be the death of you.
Enzo gets shot outside. A crew grabs him and drags him into a truck. Who are these hunters?
Lily joins the girls and Beau. Julian won't be joining us.
Damon and Stefan find Julian.
Valerie tells her story.
Julian asks what are you doing here? Damon is glib.
Lily says I wouldn't have gone to Europe if I'd know about my grandchild. Valerie says we're Julian's army, not his family. They ask Lily if it's true. She says yes. I finally see Julian for who he is. I'm leaving him. Valerie says she needs her help. So who do you believe? Beau goes to Valerie and hugs her. Then Nora. Mary Louise is hesitant. This is a lot to take in. Nora says we stick together. We're family. Mary hugs Valerie.
Stefan and Damon are ready. Damon throws a dart at Julian's neck. The boys keep attacking him. Julian falls. Let's tie him up.
Lily asked Beau to give her his hand while she sat in a chair, bracing for the pain. Mary dabs at the first blood. Lily says It's about to get worse.
Stefan finds Lily. I got Julian's blood. She says they're waiting for it in the greenhouse. He says Caroline's pregnant. I didn't know what to say, either. She asks how? He says Gemini spell. Twins. Not mine. She says you must be overwhelmed. He asks for advice. She says tell her you love her and never forget what she's going through. Then be prepared for her to sacrifice everything for them. He says you can start over. She says it's too late. So much is lost. he says you haven't lost me. She says unfortunately, Damon doesn't feel the same way. He says Damon has put up a wall since you broke his heart. She says he's gone. He wishes me dead. Stefan says I've seen that look for 150 years. She asks for some advice in return. How do I get him back? Stefan says time.
Julian digs into Damon. Damon says stop talking. Valerie says don't listen to him. He's just wanting to provoke you. If you kill him now, you're the boy that killed his mother for all eternity. Julian provokes her. She spits in his face and tells him to go to hell. Mary joins them. Damon's playing pinball. Mary doubts Valerie. She puts Damon and Valerie down. Julian says that's why you, Mary Louise, have always been my favorite.
**Stupid girl!! Daddy and self-esteem issues will get everyone killed.
Caroline gets a call. Well, you're either really drunk, or calling to tell me you have a new girlfriend. Neither. He says I'm really sorry about early. I didn't want to say the wrong thing, so I bailed. She knows there's no right thing to say. I know this is happening to both of us and you stood by me with everything that happened with my mom, so I get it if you want to run for the hills. He says I love you. I'm not going anywhere. I'm here for you. We're going to get through this together. She asks if he's sure? He says positive. And I love you, too.
Nora finds Mary. She's been crying. Lily tells Julian to let them go. He says I can't, I love you far too much for that to happen. One lives, one dies, you choose which. She says no. He says you will. You've wanted the impossible. You're either a Salvatore or one of us, but you can't be both. Choose. Choose. He gives her a stake.
Nora asks how could you do this? Mary says Valerie lies! Nora says this is different. Mary says you'd side with a girl that kills her own brother? Nora takes off the ring. This doesn't represent our love. It's only Julian's manipulation. I don't want it.
Lily says this isn't you. You used to be kind. You're still suffering from that hell. Valerie says no, he was born this way. Damon says please, one swift stab straight through the heart. Let's get this over with. You've chosen Heretics every time. Why stop now? Valerie pleads with Lily. Lily says you're so strong. I'm sorry I didn't see it sooner. Lily says son, please forgive me. Damon says do it. Kill me! Lily has the courage to tell Julian he's wrong now. I can choose them both. She stabs herself. Julian catches her and pulls the stake out. He says My sweet girl, I've already unlinked us. Stefan runs in. No! Julian speeds away.
Enzo wakes. In a cage. Matt says save your strength. You're full of vervain. I can't protect Mystic Falls on my own, so I made some friends. Someone wanted you, after all.
Lily's dying. Nora can't get the splinters out. Tell me what to do! Stefan says say goodbye. She tells Lily she loves her and she's so sorry. Goodbye. Beau next. Nods to her. Kisses her forehead. Stefan next. Takes her hand. She says I guess only one of us gets the luxury of time. Promise me you'll use yours to the fullest. He looks to Damon. Damon takes a drink.
Julian smashes things. Mary says Nora gave me back the ring. What is all this? He says Lily....she staked herself in the heart. She thought killing herself would kill me. I thought breaking the spell would protect her. But..... Mary pleads that it isn't real. He can't.
Valerie forgives Lily for loving Julian. You wanted to love us all. There's no sin in that. She tells Damon to make the most of the time Lily has left. He walks to the bed. Lily says I'm truly sorry. Stefan says say something. Damon hands him the bottle. Leans down. You made your bed. Have a nice nap. Lily goes dray, dessicating. Dying. Stefan is horrified. He throws the bottle in the fireplace.
3 years from now. Mom? Are you still here? I'm so sorry. I don't think I can save you. You've been poisoned with werewolf toxin. Damon says while you're still here, something's been nagging at me a long time. I'm so sorry. She smiles. Mom. Wow. You must really be having a bad trip. You're mother's been dead for years. She kicks him in the chin.
Next week - Christmas. Dead Santas. Winter finale.

Caroline writes about the twins in her journal to Elena. Phone buzzes. It's Matt. The stockpiled people are gone. He asks her to come with. She says Valerie was right. I'm pregnant. She hasn't told Stefan, yet.
Enzo finds Lily. Library? Lily's looking for a gift, a poem. The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd. Enzo knows it, recites it to her. She's charmed. He hands her the book. He tells her to run, leave town with me, and let your sons carry out their plan. She says I can't run from this. it's my doing. He says you're not safe. Come with me. She says I can't. But if you could? If I could..... He kisses her. She kisses him back. He says good luck, Lily. You need it. And leaves.
Julian brings Nora and Mary to their party blindfolded. Full of people. They've all been compelled to see to your every desire. Let's have a drink to celebrate. Lily arrives and she's upset. Julian tells her to loosen up. She says the rule is that we feed on trespassers. Nora wants to bail. Lily makes an exception for a special occasion. Mary and Nora feed.
**Can Lily resist the temptation of all that blood? This is a very stressful night for her, poor thing.
Stefan gets a text from Lily. Damon, let's do this. Caroline shows up. Damon and Valerie come to the door. Valerie says Damon and I will go and Stefan can follow. Caroline says we need to talk. She gets him a drink. She knows the magical baby transplant is crazy, but..... He doesn't have words. Yeah. He says I have to go. We have to talk more, but we have a small window to get to Julian tonight. She knows it's bad timing. He says we'll talk about it when I get back, promise.
Mary pulls Julian away to show him an engagement ring for Nora. She's really nervous. Julian says it's tiny. You deserve something better. He gives her a ring from French royalty. I'm so happy for you both.
Nora gets the book from Lily. She thanks her. I love it. Julian says guess who. Nora leaves them alone. Julian asks to dance. Lily doesn't know how to dance to this music. The DJ switches songs. Julian asks if she recognizes it. Beau's voice! She says he used to sing so beautifully. Julian says almost like old times. You haven't been indulging in the real fun. She says I'm content with blood bags. He says you're afraid of going all in. That hope of being one big family is causing friction. You have all the love you need right here. Accept it. Come back to us, Lily. Let go. He brings a woman to her. Lily bites, then sees Damon. Wipes her mouth and looks guilty.
**Julian's an awful enabler of sins. I'd love to see Elijah deal with him. Wouldn't that be delightful?
Lily meets Damon outside. She says I had to. Have to convince them I'm on their side. Damon says the plan is postponed. She says no, no, no. Damon says Julian dies tonight, but it doesn't bother him if she dies, too. He's only here because Stefan is a Mama's boy. She slaps him. He says you're already dead to me. I moved on. I'd have left you in that prison world.
Mary and Nora. Nora reads the poem. Mary opens the ring box. Marry me. 133 years is not enough, Nora. I want eternity. Nora says yes! Of course yes! They kiss. She puts the ring on Nora. They kiss again. Valerie says I'm happy for you two. We need to talk, about the worst moment of my life.
Matt finds Enzo feeding. Enzo lets her run away. Matt says what the hell is wrong with you? Enzo says I didn't get the girl. Don't think the life saving business suits you, mate. Matt says no one wants you. What are you still doing here? Enzo asks him the same. You're overmatched. You've brought a knife to a gun fight and it's going to be the death of you.
Enzo gets shot outside. A crew grabs him and drags him into a truck. Who are these hunters?
Lily joins the girls and Beau. Julian won't be joining us.
Damon and Stefan find Julian.
Valerie tells her story.
Julian asks what are you doing here? Damon is glib.
Lily says I wouldn't have gone to Europe if I'd know about my grandchild. Valerie says we're Julian's army, not his family. They ask Lily if it's true. She says yes. I finally see Julian for who he is. I'm leaving him. Valerie says she needs her help. So who do you believe? Beau goes to Valerie and hugs her. Then Nora. Mary Louise is hesitant. This is a lot to take in. Nora says we stick together. We're family. Mary hugs Valerie.
Stefan and Damon are ready. Damon throws a dart at Julian's neck. The boys keep attacking him. Julian falls. Let's tie him up.
Lily asked Beau to give her his hand while she sat in a chair, bracing for the pain. Mary dabs at the first blood. Lily says It's about to get worse.
Stefan finds Lily. I got Julian's blood. She says they're waiting for it in the greenhouse. He says Caroline's pregnant. I didn't know what to say, either. She asks how? He says Gemini spell. Twins. Not mine. She says you must be overwhelmed. He asks for advice. She says tell her you love her and never forget what she's going through. Then be prepared for her to sacrifice everything for them. He says you can start over. She says it's too late. So much is lost. he says you haven't lost me. She says unfortunately, Damon doesn't feel the same way. He says Damon has put up a wall since you broke his heart. She says he's gone. He wishes me dead. Stefan says I've seen that look for 150 years. She asks for some advice in return. How do I get him back? Stefan says time.
Julian digs into Damon. Damon says stop talking. Valerie says don't listen to him. He's just wanting to provoke you. If you kill him now, you're the boy that killed his mother for all eternity. Julian provokes her. She spits in his face and tells him to go to hell. Mary joins them. Damon's playing pinball. Mary doubts Valerie. She puts Damon and Valerie down. Julian says that's why you, Mary Louise, have always been my favorite.
**Stupid girl!! Daddy and self-esteem issues will get everyone killed.
Caroline gets a call. Well, you're either really drunk, or calling to tell me you have a new girlfriend. Neither. He says I'm really sorry about early. I didn't want to say the wrong thing, so I bailed. She knows there's no right thing to say. I know this is happening to both of us and you stood by me with everything that happened with my mom, so I get it if you want to run for the hills. He says I love you. I'm not going anywhere. I'm here for you. We're going to get through this together. She asks if he's sure? He says positive. And I love you, too.
Nora finds Mary. She's been crying. Lily tells Julian to let them go. He says I can't, I love you far too much for that to happen. One lives, one dies, you choose which. She says no. He says you will. You've wanted the impossible. You're either a Salvatore or one of us, but you can't be both. Choose. Choose. He gives her a stake.
Nora asks how could you do this? Mary says Valerie lies! Nora says this is different. Mary says you'd side with a girl that kills her own brother? Nora takes off the ring. This doesn't represent our love. It's only Julian's manipulation. I don't want it.
Lily says this isn't you. You used to be kind. You're still suffering from that hell. Valerie says no, he was born this way. Damon says please, one swift stab straight through the heart. Let's get this over with. You've chosen Heretics every time. Why stop now? Valerie pleads with Lily. Lily says you're so strong. I'm sorry I didn't see it sooner. Lily says son, please forgive me. Damon says do it. Kill me! Lily has the courage to tell Julian he's wrong now. I can choose them both. She stabs herself. Julian catches her and pulls the stake out. He says My sweet girl, I've already unlinked us. Stefan runs in. No! Julian speeds away.
Enzo wakes. In a cage. Matt says save your strength. You're full of vervain. I can't protect Mystic Falls on my own, so I made some friends. Someone wanted you, after all.
Lily's dying. Nora can't get the splinters out. Tell me what to do! Stefan says say goodbye. She tells Lily she loves her and she's so sorry. Goodbye. Beau next. Nods to her. Kisses her forehead. Stefan next. Takes her hand. She says I guess only one of us gets the luxury of time. Promise me you'll use yours to the fullest. He looks to Damon. Damon takes a drink.
Julian smashes things. Mary says Nora gave me back the ring. What is all this? He says Lily....she staked herself in the heart. She thought killing herself would kill me. I thought breaking the spell would protect her. But..... Mary pleads that it isn't real. He can't.
Valerie forgives Lily for loving Julian. You wanted to love us all. There's no sin in that. She tells Damon to make the most of the time Lily has left. He walks to the bed. Lily says I'm truly sorry. Stefan says say something. Damon hands him the bottle. Leans down. You made your bed. Have a nice nap. Lily goes dray, dessicating. Dying. Stefan is horrified. He throws the bottle in the fireplace.
3 years from now. Mom? Are you still here? I'm so sorry. I don't think I can save you. You've been poisoned with werewolf toxin. Damon says while you're still here, something's been nagging at me a long time. I'm so sorry. She smiles. Mom. Wow. You must really be having a bad trip. You're mother's been dead for years. She kicks him in the chin.
Next week - Christmas. Dead Santas. Winter finale.
