Favorite scene: Klaus and Hayley have come a long way. They haven’t had many scenes this season, shame on you writers, but this one almost made up for it. Hayley has asked before what would happen to her after the baby is born. Back then Klaus was unable to answer, and I doubt I would have liked his answer. However, after reminding him earlier in the episode that this was THEIR baby, Klaus tells her that he does want her in the baby’s life. He then shows her the nursery which I think is perfect. I wonder if Klaus did it himself, because it kind of reflects his personality. Nothing extravagant, just simple, a little rough around the edges. The crystals, the rocking horse and the most adorable teddy bear I’ve ever seen (which I’m 100% sure Klaus picked out). When she said “Nothing true” to Klaus’ question of what his father said about him showed that Hayley does realize he’s changed. When it comes to ruling New Orleans he might not always make the right decisions but he’ll always protect their daughter. I can’t wait to see these two work together as parents.
Best chemistry moment: As you’ve probably figured out from a certain paragraph above, I’m a Klaus and Hayley shipper. However I cannot ignore the kiss between Elijah and Hayley is freaking out about. I think the fact that Hayley and Klaus seemed to have made up gave Hayley that little push she needed to take the leap. Perhaps she thought that now if Klaus found out, he might not mind as much. Or maybe she just thought ‘what the hell’. I know this is a moment a lot of viewers have been waiting for, just like both characters who’ve been dancing around each other all season.
Dumbest character: Going to continue where I left off with Francesca. Her hands may be clean when it comes to the bombing at the bayou but she’s not exactly playing it smart. Threatening Hayley is about the dumbest thing she could possibly do in this town. If she ever tried anything against Hayley, she would not only have the Mikaelsons on her ass but also the entire werewolf pack. How does she possibly think she’s going to make it through this was when she keeps threatening people. The humans stand absolutely no chance against witches, werewolves and vampires.
Honorable mention: Even though the first scene (dream) didn’t end well, that baby was so adorable. As was the way Klaus smiled at her. I can’t wait to see him as a father.
Hayley: “You, me, Elijah and the miracle baby all under one roof. Sounds like a bad reality show.”
Elijah: “Of course, how foolish of me. It must have been that other witch that’s been parading through our house in scraps of lace.”
Klaus: “This cycle of misery ends with my child.” Hayley: “You forgot one thing in your attempt to plead your case. She’s not your child, she’s ours.”
I know I promised this would be up earlier, however I got sick this week and was unable to write this until now. Only two episodes left of this season. Tensions are building and are bound to explode in the finale (or even sooner). Check in again next week (or more like this week) for an all new review. Let me know in the comments what you think.
