You would think everyone would earn some kind of break, but thats not the case.

There is no rest for the wicked or the (relatively) good.

As Freya says at one point, It never stops.

Luckily, he has a list, or, rather, souvenir letters written to his enemies loved ones.

(Kind of reminiscent of Stefans secret ripper closet in Chicago).

Cami responds, I think youre more concerned about what she stole from you.

Someone made the mistake of turning Cortez into a vampire, and hes been hunting Klaus ever since.

Cortez just walks away casually.

You know who hasnt been worried these past three days?

See, several members of the Strix have gone missing, so Marcel enlists Davina to track them down.

Elijah finds Hayley torturing another Strix vampire.

So, Vincent obliges.

Klaus shows up at the bar with a wooden stake in his hand.

He flings it at Cortezs chest and uses his vamp-speed to kill the two patrons Cortez compelled.

(A move that horrifies Cami.)

Once Klaus empties the bar, he decides to play with Cortez before killing him.

(I imagine they stay in contact through some demented subreddit.)

And Klaus responds by decapitating Cortez with one swift motion.

In hindsight, you couldve been nicer to people or at least left fewer survivors, Kol quips.

So while Kol and Freya work their magic, Elijah tends to the Hayley vs. the Strix problem.

First, he murderers and burns the bodies of the other names on Hayleys list.

Well, that seems like the right thing to do, says Elijah as he fights back tears.

He admits he tried to do the same, but it didnt work.

When Elijah cries, we all cry.

Elijah isnt the only Mikaelson whose heart is broken.

So, they sleep together.

Kol wakes up in the middle of the night hungry, but his blood bag is empty.

Unable to control his hunger, he heads out into the streets and feasts on an unsuspecting human.

As the self-loathing starts to seep in, someone walks out of the shadows: Finn.

Yep, the worst Mikaelson is back.

Overall, tonights episode was another strong outing for the show.
