Aleister is there, too.

By the end of the day, you will kill roman navikev.

We'll be gone soon. But you just got here.
We need to bring savannah home for her initiation ritual.
She needs her talisman to focus her powers.
So that something terrible like last night
Doesn't happen again.
Why go all the way back to boston?
Do your ritual here.
No. No, no, no.
We've imposed enough.
Well if she is dangerous,
You should do it as soon as possible.
He's right.
We shouldn't take the chance.

Stonehaven.
Stonehaven of sorts.
The one inside your mind, your subconscious.
(banging) a great woman taught me this spell.
I've taken possession of your body.
Out there, in the real world,
They think I'm you.
No, I'm right here.

Your consciousness should already be dead.
Gone from here.
You are quite the fighter.

I do. I have you locked away inside your mind.
There is no way out.
Oh, no, no, elena will know you're not me.

It's okay, I'm not judging you.
Of course.
You pack light.
Story of my life.
What does that mean?
I have this altar vessel at home
And I'm just supposed to fill it with stuff.
Things that will...
You know, give me courage during the initiation. And...
So far it's pretty empty.
Before all of this craziness,
I was a photographer.
Take this.
It's one of my favourites.

It's beautiful.

No, savannah...
It's been chosen.
I want to have elena with me.
No.
The initiation only works if you meet your familiar alone.
But for the first part, can she be with me then?
Savannah...
She can be with you at the first part.
But when you go in, you must do it alone.
Do you understand?
She needs an altar vessel with her
When she's alone on her ritual.
Poor kid has nothing here.
Why do you want any part in this ritual?
If it helps, what harm can it do?
Can I borrow this?
No.
I... It's too fragile.
Shouldn't be out in the woods.
You must have something.
Survey maps?
You building us a little cottage?

You should steer clear.

If they need solitude,
I thought this is where they'll find it.
Well, jeremy won't like it.
We have to rebuild this in the right place.
This is the right place.
We don't want to cause trouble.
It's no trouble, I'll just move it for you.

It was a misunderstanding.
About what?
The witches.
I was wrong about letting them stay here.
They'll be gone in a few hours.
And then what happens?
We go back to the way things were, clay.
Elena's feelings for that girl are a problem.
She wants to protect her. She's obsessed.
I have faith in elena's ability to put the pack first.
There are things you don't know.
About elena.
About what happened at the compound.
(ominous music)
It's a lovely dress. Where'd you get it?
Oh, it was from paige.
She said I could keep it after.
Ruth and paige, they... They care a lot about you.
Savannah, you look great.
Thanks.
Do you, um... Do you guys think I'm ready?
Yeah, I do.
Well, we can't delay.
I'll get my things.
Paige.
Before we go...
I have to ask you...
The way that savannah can't control her magic, is that normal?
It's a powerful force.
She's like a grenade with the pin pulled.
You throw it in the right direction, everything's okay.
And if not...
But how out-of-control can it get?
Can it affect other people?
Why? What's going on?
Clay: At the compound, she was...
Forced to change.
In front of people. It's really thrown her.
That's an incredible violation.
But she never has to see those people again.
And they will not remember seeing her.
One will.
One of them was rachel.
Elena never told me that.
She didn't?
Why would she keep it a secret if it wasn't troubling her?
I think this relationship with savannah, she's...
She's trying to find the good in what happened.
And you're worried that the more time she spends with this girl...
The harder it will be for her to deal with what's really wrong.
The ceremony only deepens their bond.
It's your decision, jeremy. I only thought you should know.
I'll deal with it.
Thank you.

Elena: There's something different about clay.
He's angry. Aggressive with me.
It's like he's someone else.
Aleister messed with my mind in the compound.
Maybe he taught that to savannah.
And you think that savannah has something to do with it?
That clay's under some type of spell?
No, it's different than what happened to me.
It's like... He's not himself.
Look, I get it.
You realize that magic exists,
And that spells can be real,
And when something weird happens,
You think that that's the reason.
But most often there's a simple explanation.
He loves you, elena.
And if there's something wrong with clay,
You should talk to clay.

Elena, we need to talk.
Look, jeremy, I-I didn't know how to bring it up,
But it's clay.
He's not himself.
And look,
This is the book that clay found in baton rouge, right?
And this section talks about
How a... A dark witch
Can enter someone else's body and control it.
You think that someone's possessed clay?
Clay told me what you were forced to do
At the compound. I know.
What? He said that they made you change
In front of others. In front of rachel.
I never... I never told clay about that.
What do you mean? I mean, the only people
Who know about my change at the compound
Are me and rachel...
And aleister.
Elena, aleister is dead.
Paige and nick burned his body
And buried the ashes. No, jeremy, I am telling you,
That is not the clay that I know.
Okay?
Where's clay right now?
I'm not sure.
Where was he this morning when this all started?
I found him in one of the storage shacks
On the edge of the property.
Which one? Can you show me?
Yes.
We have to do it now.
But elena said she'd be here.
I'm sure she has her reasons,
But we've already started the ritual, savannah,

You don't need anyone.

Within a dark circle that he's drawn on the floor.

Hey. Jeremy,

You're hiding something from us,

Clay... As we know him, is gone.
What do you mean? The possession spell is fatal.
Ruth made it very clear, it's dark magic.
When aleister took over his body,
He destroyed clay's soul.
No. No, I don't believe her.
Jeremy: If there was any other option, we'd be taking it.
He's gone. And the only way for us to stop aleister now
Is to kill clay. Jeremy, that is not going to happen.
What if we find aleister's body
And just kill it instead?
It's not going to bring clay back.
That would just lock aleister
In clay's body forever.
Then we do that.
We trap him, we hold him in the cage,
And we wait.
Clay's strong, jeremy,
He can fight this, okay?
I know he can! He will!
It's not going to be clay in that cage.
And you're going to wait for the rest of your life,
But he's gone, elena.
Clay's dead...
And we have to accept that.
We've lost him and I'm sorry.
Stay here, I will deal with this alone. Nick: No.
If aleister killed my brother,
Then he needs to die.
You tell me how.
If you find him, you take him out of the circle he's in
And you finish him there.
That's what you do.
And that is the only way we avenge what happened to clay.
I don't know if I can do this, nick.
You just stick with me and you won't have to.
