3x13 - Bringing Out The Dead

Picture of Elinor Mikaelson

Mikaelson Mansion

Elinor is standing before Colette, wiping the blood off her hands with a white handkerchief after killing Daniel. "You look surprised to see me. So it wasn't you that removed the dagger from my chest?"

"You look like you could do with a drink. And we have a lot to discuss, so shall we?" Elinor attacks her. Colette flies through a window "Easy. I just finished renovation"

Colette rushes at Elinor and Elinor crashes into a table, breaking it "You know you have every right to be mad at me. But I kept my word, I reunited you with our family"

Elinor attacks her again, and Colette is knocked against a coffin. She opens the one next to it, undaggers Kia who is lying inside, rushes to Elinor and holds her against a closed coffin by her throat. She holds the dagger up threateningly. "Don't make me do this to you again Elinor!"

"Come on. Use it. I dare you. You'll have Kia to deal with" Elinor holds her hands up in surrender.

Colette lowers the dagger "Mikael is dead" she releases her grip and Elinor stands up, surprised.

"What did you say?"

"I killed him. With his own weapon. He's gone Elinor. Forever"

"Why do your family remain in these coffins? Fiona for over 900 years, Kia for over a century"

"Because of Stella Salvatore. She holds the one thing keeping me from freeing them. There are things that you do not know about our past, Elinor. Our mother's death. Things I never wanted you to know but I'm ready to tell you now. I only ask that you remember the oath of loyalty you once swore to me" Colette goes to a small table where there is a small urn and removes the lid. She dips the dagger inside then walks over to Kia's coffin.

"What are you doing?" Elinor asks her.

Colette daggers Kia again "Always and forever. I need you to stand by my side. Be my sister. Help me destroy Stella and I promise you our family will be whole again" She closes Kia's coffin lid.

Demi is walking through a meadow and talking to Eliot on the phone "So you're the prime suspect, huh?"

"He doesn't think that I did it. He's just trying to find out why somebody used one of my family weapons to kill a council member" Eliot tells her, thinking about the sheriff.

"Well why don't you just ask Thea if her dirty little doctor had access to the weapons"

"You're on speaker phone, bitch" Thea says to her.

"I'm just saying first suspect usually the right one. Don't get so defensive"

"Bria Walters was killed days ago, alright? I didn't show Matthew this stuff until last night!" Thea tells them.

"It wasn't Matthew" Eliot agrees.

"But Bria Walters was his ex-girlfriend and Thea saw them fighting that night"

"It's not Matthew! Okay? I refuse to believe that your luck with men is that tragic" Eliot tells Thea.

"Who else knows about your secret little slayer stash?" Demi asks.

"Who doesn't? Got weapons everywhere, here, the school, my loft, your car" Thea says.

"It's Colette. It has to be, she's screwing with us" Demi insists.
