That episode obviously ended with Cami staying with Klaus.
Is she still at the compound this week?
Shes still at the compound, yeah, which is you see her in the holiday party.
Im going to have to stay at the Mikaelson compound.
[Laughs]
Did last week help her sort through her complicated feelings for Klaus at all?
I think the more she feels, the more complicated it gets.
I think its more complicated than ever.
Is she at all going to embrace her dark side?
I love that shes fighting back more this season.
Im like, Shes been physical this whole time!
She loves smashing beer bottles on peoples heads, shes been doing it for three seasons!
Dont mess with her.
She will fight back.
Especially if you put her in a short dress.
She will be doing nonstop stunts if you put her in a short dress.
[Laughs]
You mentioned that shes at the compound for the holidays.
Does she feel like shes part of the Mikaelson clan at this point?
Yes, I think for better or for worse, yes.
Once you get into their orbit, you either die or become part of the family.
Yeah exactly, or both.
But luckily for her, as of now, shes more a part of a family than dead.
Are you at all worried that shes the friend who will betray the Mikaelsons in the prophecy?
[Laughs]
Or youll become the new big bad.
Thats another option, but the big bad, thats way less job security than the therapist.
So this week, it seems like Cami is helping Kinney?
Shes been in the same situation as Kinney.
Shes been compelled to forget an answer shed been searching for.
That kind of drove her crazy, and Kinneys in a dark place.
This show has done crazy finales.
It has done slightly more tame finales.
How does this midseason finale measure up?
Its a little nutty.
Theyre not okay with that.
That reminds me: Cami needs some girl time.
Phoebe [Tonkin] and I have been pitching this because thats all Phoebe and I do in Atlanta.
Mostly its about Taylor Swift, actually.
Thats a great squad.
Thats like the best squad.
I really want that to be my squad.
The Originalsmidseason finale airs Thursday at 9 p.m.
ET on The CW.
