The Originals Season 2 Episode 18 represented everything we've grown to love about this series.
There was the arrival of a new dangerous enemy, as Dahila made her presence felt from the very beginning, even taking over the body of Jackson for a brief period of time.
This prompted Jackson to spring into action, afraid he could not defeat the woman coming after his quasi baby and suggestion he, Hayley and Hope escape to the Bayou.
And Hayley actually agreed (after seeing how frightened Elijah and Klaus were of their aunt), only for their plan to be foiled when Aiden refused to pick them up due to his secret loyalty to Klaus.
As a result, Hayley and Jackson were guided by Marcel to a safe haven Josephine had blessed earlier in the episode, while Josh told Aiden he'd try to help him figure out how to get out of his rock (Jackson) versus hard place (Klaus) situation.
There was also plenty of family upheaval this week, highlighted by Klaus and Mikael actually joining forces on The Originals Season 2 Episode 18.
They had a common enemy in Dahlia and a common interest in keeping their daughters safe.
This led to an awesomely entertaining alliance and showdown, though Dahlia came out on top and even nabbed the one weapon that could kill her in the process:
A knife made out of Freya's blood, ashes from Norway and the ashes of her Viking oppressors.
By the end of the hour, the Mikaelsons were all gathered around, planning their next step when Freya mentioned that they jumped the gun. Her plan entailed the use of many weapons made out of these items.
They had her blood. They could easily get soil from Norway. But what about the ashes of a Viking?
As you'll see when you watch The Originals online, this led to the best work ever from Joseph Morgan, as he asked Mikael why he never loved him as a son... and then plunged a stake into his step-father's heart.
Freya screamed. Mikael burned up. And the team at least now had the materials necessary to go after Dahlia again.
But she concluded the hour by sending a message of her own, killing Josephine on the streets of New Orleans.
Tremendous stuff all around. We absolutely cannot wait for The Originals Season 2 Episode 20 next Monday!
