"Don't drag me into this please" Five said

"What- whatever time we have left, we wanna spend it with all of you. So, we're super pumped. If you would join us in the banquet hall at 6:00 pm for a celebration of our love and the official union of what's left of our two great families" Sloane invited

"Dress Code is creative black tie" Luther added

They all were now getting what looked like the wedding invitations.

"Wow, and you did all of this- yourself?" Lila asked

"Luther helped too, we stayed up all night" Sloane answered

Suddenly Klaus was back and with Reginald.

"Klaus" Allison Said

"Oh thank god" Viktor relieved

"Gather round children, quickly now" Reginald said

"The hell have you been?" Diego asked

"Oh! Reg and I, we got all tangled up in a whole father-son-end-of-the-world road trip kinda thing, you know?" Klaus explained

"You two are hanging now?" Ben asked

"Yeah, we laughed, we cried, we played in traffic. And long story short, I'm immortal now" Klaus gasped

Klaus began to flex his muscles and make noises causing Valerie to giggle.

"Woah, wait. You're what now?" Luther asked

"Klaus, have you gotten into the bath salts again?" Allison asked

"I think the more pertinent question is, why are you all sitting around playing with jars?" Reginald asked

Some of them threw their jars away.

"They're invitations" Sloane answered

"Nobody's playing" Luther added

Sloane handed one to her father.

"Luther and I are getting married" Sloane smiled

"All of space and time is collapsing and you lot are planning a wedding?" Reginald questioned

"Yeah and uh, the thing is um, space is limited. So it's kind of a per-plate situation so, you know" Luther answered

Luther snatched the invitation out of Reginald hand.

"Is this how i raised you?  To fiddle while Rome burns?!" Reginald exclaimed

"Remember what we talked about Reg. Remember to breathe" Klaus said

"Quiet I'm on a roll" Reginald said

"Dad, have you been taking your pills?" Sloane asked

"As a matter of fact, I haven't. And I can confirm that I've never felt better in my life. You thought you could dope me up and slow me down, take control of my affairs and squander my fortune" Reginald answered

Ben and Sloane looked worried

"Well, Klaus here was good enough to wean me off that wretched poison and now that the fog is lifting, I can see all your dastardly designs with a bracing clarity" Reginald spoke

"You took him off his meds? What were you thinking?" Sloane questioned

"Clearly he's the only one doing any thinking at all. All of you could learn a thing or two from this impressive young man" Reginald said

Diego laughed

"The world really is ending! Oh my god" He said

"As for the rest of you, your training is to resume post-haste. We're running out of time and we still have a mission to complete" Reginald announced
