Seriously though, Esther is s...Judgy Wudgy indeed.<br /><br />Seriously though, Esther is so evil that I just want her gone. Defeated, thrown off a very high cliff so she can have a Disney death. She's just the one I seethe over, probably because she was responsible for all the really heinous stuff last season. She's behind the witches being so unrelentingly awful. The thing about Esther is that she seems to just be twisted and evil. Her motivations are fuzzy at best, and vindictive and cruel at worst. Perhaps they are based out of love, but I truly doubt it. <br /><br />Mikael, I hate nearly as much but I don't want him to just die. I want him to suffer a bit first. He needs to be schooled, made humble, and then put into the ground. His kind of evil is based on ignorance and hatred. It's a much easier kind of evil to wrap your head around. <br /><br />Kol is working for me, perhaps even a bit more than when he was in his original body. He's not invulnerable, so his arrogance comes off as a bit more grounded. Plus he and Davina definitely have some chemistry. If there is on resurrected sibling I want to continue, it's probably Kol.<br /><br />Elijah... somehow I don't believe Esther. He might have this wall, he might have done numerous very bad things especially since he's been around for a thousand years. But somehow, I don't think he's as evil as she thinks he is. Because if that is true, she might convert him to her side, and that would just be miserable. It would be character assassination to make him evil, since he is basically the main hero of the series. <br /><br />Really good moment where Cami, Marcel, Hayley, and even Davina and Kol came to aid Klaus in that last moment. One on one, Klaus and Mikael are almost even. Klaus with back up is basically unbeatable. <br /><br />Anyway, great review, and a fun episode even if it was a touch frustrating on the Elijah front.<br /> Samantha M.

All this backstory does explain Elijah a bit. He's so heroic, except when he's not. That Hayley hallucination was powerful, too.<br /><br />I think Mikael just hates. Has he ever shown that he cares about humans? My memory of the Mikael stuff in the past isn't that great. One thing I realized this time is that I'm fond of Cami and I was invested in Klaus saving her from Mikael. And then I loved that Cami saved Klaus right back. Maybe I'm shipping them a bit.<br /><br /><i>Judgy Wudgy was a bear.</i> LOL. Nice review, Laure.Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.com
