Finn’s return forces Elijah to make a deadly decision
Never has one bullet caused so much drama.
Okay, thats probably not true.
But never has one UNUSED bullet caused so much drama as the final piece of White Oak.

Lets get to it!
Sadly, his moment is cut short when he overhears some stranger talk about killing Klaus.
Naturally, Elijah follows the man out of the club … until Marcel stops him.
Spoiler: Vincent has it.
At least until some mysterious blond vampire shows up, bites Vincent, and takes it.
Furthermore, she claims that shes just a hired gun.
And as such, her next move is to set up an auction on the dark web,Scandal-style.
But instead of selling Olivia Pope, theyre selling a bullet.
In the meantime, Elijah, Kol, Finn, and Freya are all trapped at the compound.
It simply isnt safe to leave.
While Lucien tries to win over Freya, Kol updates Elijah on his revenge plan for Finn.
After all, He didnt just drop a bloody vase!
(Kol does have a point.)
Wait, I take that back.
I just saw Finn and GOOD LORD has that pendant been good to him.
Heck, Ill spend a few months in there if I come out looking like that.
Bottom line: Finn is back and hotter than ever!
However, Kol isnt nearly as excited about Finns new look.
He very quickly starts a fight with his brother, one which Lucien and ultimately, Elijah interrupts.
Yep, I love this plan already.
There, her buddy Hollis updates her on the werewolf situation in the area.
It seems theres not much of a pack left.
But Hayley doesnt go down without a fight.
The enemies you have are the ones you made, she tells him.
Shes not going to let him raise Hope to be just like him.
(But wont that someone be you?)
She drops one last truth bomb Being kind doesnt make you weak before heading to the girls trailer.
Klaus apologizes to Hayley and promises they will make decisions together, as partners, from now on.
And the first decision they face?
Well, Klaus just realized the man that poor girl killed worked for Kingmaker, a.k.a.
These wolves are being hunted.
Vincent then uses that blood to track her.
Just like that, Marcel gets the bullet and returns it to Elijah.
Speaking of Elijah, hes having a conversation with Finn at the compound.
It seems Finn has and hasnt changed.
Hes still sickened by his siblings, but hes done trying to atone for past sins.
Elijah thinks about it, but Kol is not a fan.
As Kol confesses to Elijah, his rage and hunger is worse than ever.
And it doesnt help that he never learned to control it before.
But now, he wants to, because he couldnt live with himself if he hurt Davina.
Finn cant imagine an eternity with no hope of escape.
After Lucien steals the bullet from Finn and redelivers it to Elijah, Elijah makes a choice.
As Finn puts it, Forever is a burden that nobody should have to bear.
So its safe to say hes been making good use of his free time.
(But surely theres a powerful witch helping him, right?)
