Summary[]
FATHERS & DAUGHTERS — After five long years apart, Klaus attempts to reconnect with his daughter, Hope. Even as father and daughter bond, the rest of the family is still in turmoil. Elijah mediates a conflict between Hayley and Freya to determine the best way to protect the family. Meanwhile, in New Orleans, Vincent tells Marcel terrible secrets about his ex-wife, Eva Sinclair, even as they begin their search for a mysterious witch who plans to sacrifice a group of innocent children – including Hope Mikaelson.

Trivia[]
- Antagonists: Zealot
- Vincent tells Marcel about the new threat to New Orleans is his fault and that it's older than the Ancestors. He also tells Marcel that this magic is what changed Eva into the monster she became.
- The Zealot uses powerful magic that renders Marcel temporarily unconscious, and later forces him to the ground in agony after surviving being impaled through his chest by Marcel.
- It is shown that Keelin doesn't heal as fast as werewolves would normally. She explains that she weakened herself through her knowledge of medicine.
- Kol still misses Davina and tells Rebekah that she would be 23 years old now, meaning she was born in 1996. Kol also says there's no telling how Davina would've made the world a better place the last 5 years if she had lived. This, however, directly contradicts the established timeline which would make her 24 years old, making it a continuity error.
- Hope heals a butterfly while Klaus watches after removing her bracelet (which Davina had previously given her). She thinks that her mother Hayley doesn't know about her magic use but she does as Hayley mentions it to Elijah about how Hope has healed animals with her magic.
