LIZZIE: Welcome to the Salvatore School.
I'm Josie. I'm Lizzie. Sisters.
We are a school for the supernatural.
Which covers a lot of territory.
HOPE: I'm a hybrid of three different creatures.
Tri-brid.
I knew Hope went to some fancy boarding school.
People in town said it was for troubled rich kids.
This is a safe place for people like Rafael.
ALARIC: I'm sorry, Langdon.
But you don't belong here. Then where do I belong?
I'm still nursing a wounded soul.
Penelope Park.
I am an equal opportunity
evil temptress. JOSIE: MG?
I'm not gonna remember any of this.
Probably not.
LANDON: Well, in that case.
What's wrong? The alarm didn't trigger.
ALARIC: What was it? DORIAN: Knife.
Supernatural origins unknown.
HOPE: How do you know it was him?
It's not possible, okay?
I'm not that stupid. I know how to track him,
but it involves using dark magic.
Inveniet hostium et tenebrae. Inveniet hostium...
DONOVAN: Local PD thinks it was a chemical spill.
ALARIC: What's the actual story?
DONOVAN: I'll leave that to you to figure out.

HOPE: "No legacy is so rich as honesty."
When Shakespeare wrote that, he obviously didn't know
what I know about teenage boys.
I mean, I know there are guys with integrity,
who lead with truth.
I've just never met any of them.
EMMA: I see you've decided to double down
on your nihilism this morning.
I'm trying to be rich with honesty.
Start from the beginning.
Of my short-lived but horrific romances with liars?
Of your decision to perform black magic
on school grounds last night.
Maybe we could table this until I catch the guy
I was trying to find by using black magic.
Because the longer that Landon Kirby is out there,
the greater the chance he tells people about this school
and the kind of people we have hidden behind the gates.
You know there's a beacon
that alerts me when someone's using.
You knew you would be caught.
After I found Landon, but we lost the trail
and now I'm being interrogated.
But go ahead, take your time.
Nothing at stake here.
Did anyone help you with the spell?
No. Can I go now?
Hope. You're a student.
This isn't your fight. It's absolutely my fight, Emma.
Landon was inside the walls of this school because of me.
He had access to the knife he stole because of me.
We're at risk of exposure because of me.
And you can tell me that I'm sublimating
a lifetime of survivor's remorse,
or whatever it says in my file here,
but I'm gonna help Dr. Saltzman find him.
And what happens when you do?
HOPE: It should be said that Shakespeare
wasn't completely clueless.
He had plenty of advice
about how to handle betrayal.
My personal favorite: "Think, therefore,
on revenge and cease to weep."
Let's hit the dining hall and carb load.
It's game day.
I'm not hungry.
What? Well, uh, funny thing actually, Josette.
This morning, as I was desperately trying
to make this trash bag of a jersey look cute,
I suddenly had the urge to purge.
So I fled to the bowl, and lo and behold,
I heaved up a gallon of black goo.
So, seeing as I haven't been dabbling in any
illicit black magic recently,
I can only imagine it was a twin sympathy hurl.
And here you are,
denying the day's most important meal.
So fess up. What did you do?
PENELOPE: Maybe you're pregnant, Lizzie.
Oh, or maybe it's just how that jersey fits.
Go away, evil one.
Already gone. Hot tip:
next time you burn your ex's hair off,
make sure she can't rock a lob.
Morning! Big game today...
Bounce, MG.
If you hurry, you can catch up with the Blair Bitch
and tongue-chum her again.
Did she who shall not be named just fat
Hey, girls, listen. Don't do it.
Don't say whatever it is you're about to say because
you have Dad face, and wherever Dad face goes,
daughter disappointment always follows.
I'm sorry; I can't make the game today.
But, Dad, you're the coach.
And I'm QB1 this year.
I hate it as much as you do,
but I have to find Landon Kirby.
Okay, so, let's cancel.
I mean, it's a joke anyways.
We can't use our powers, so we suck.
Exactly. Which is a normal school
for troubled rich kids thing to do.
This annual event lets the locals see you
for what they think you are.
And keeps them from asking too many questions.
But they mock us.
Because they're insecure, small-town kids
with small minds.
So just let it be. Look, girls,
with Landon running around, knowing all of our secrets,
we have to protect our profile now more than ever.
Can I count on you guys to do that?
All right. I love you both.
We'll be back as soon as we can.
Wait.
Who's "we"?
Hello?
Hey.
What are you doing?
Adjusting the sway bar.
Was it broken?
It is now.
You're going after Landon.
If you want this car to work, I'm going with you.
You should stay out of it. He's a liar and a thief.
He took a stupid knife.
Nothing in this school is a stupid anything.
Look. He's my best friend.
And you? You seem vengeful.
Let me show you something.
Close your eyes.

What the hell was that?
Your best friend did that to a bus full of people
on Route 29 last night, and I am the only one
who knows how to find him, so give me the engine thingy.
No.
I have actual magic powers.
And I have a long history of anger issues. He can come.
What?
He knows Landon; he'll be an asset.
And we need all the help we can get,
so fix the car and hop in.
And put a shirt on.
Dad loves Hope more than us.
You're being melodramatic, okay?
He's missing one game.
First a game and then our weddings.
This game is an opportunity.
We can show him how seriously we are taking this
by making sure that our secret stays protected
out there on the field.
Today, we will lose
even more epically than we normally do.
Win by losing. That's the spirit.
There's someone we need to recruit
to our Island of Misfit Toys.
Tall, hot and handsome. Rafael?
I am totally thinking tight end.
PENELOPE: I just saw him.
Yeah, sorry, Raf's not gonna be at the game.
He hopped the Hope train out of town.
Just like your Dad.
I don't know why he's still out here.
He has a whole day's lead on us. He could be anywhere.
Maybe 'cause he doesn't have a reason to run.
Logic that would be perfectly believable
if he hadn't, you know, ran.
Wait-- Shh!
You hear that?
Someone's here.
I-It's okay. I-I'm not gonna hurt you.
Were you on the bus?
Can you tell us what happened?
Is she a survivor?
Uh, smells like it. She reeks of smoke.
I think she's in shock.
Look, I need to get her to the police
so she she can get some medical attention.
Uh, why don't you two go ahead? Don't engage.
We don't know how dangerous Landon is.
He's not dangerous... I said don't engage.
Come on.
I need to get you some help.
If you want to follow me.
All right, guys.
Let's have a good, clean, entirely uneventful game.
Like we do every year when we beat your asses down.
Not exactly the spirit, Kyle.
Oh. All right, call in the air.
Tails never fails.
Guess not. Your ball.
Shake hands and let's do this.
MAN: Go. Huddle, huddle.
Kaleb. Come on, suck it up.
We have to go through this every year, okay?
I was being recruited by D1 schools
before I got here, all right? I don't lose.
Hey. You do today. Okay?
Good luck out there.
Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.
I'm pretty sure I've seen that on a poster at the dentist's.
Oh, my dad's a dentist, but he still made time to be here.
I guess I'm lucky that way, huh?
What exactly happened on that bus?
No one knows.
It's like something incinerated it from the inside.
Look, whatever he did, I know there's a good explanation.
He's the most loyal friend that I've ever had.
He was there for me on the worst day of my life.
After my girlfriend died,
he's the only thing that kept me going.
So let me get that knife back for you
and then we both can hear him out, okay?
Appreciate the passion,
but maybe you should exert some of it making new friends.
So I can be as popular and well
Yeah,
I've been at the school for two days
and I've already heard all about Hope Mikaelson
and her sunny disposition.
I'll get you the stupid, not-stupid knife
and the answers you want.
I promise.
And why should I believe you?
Because I don't lie.
Everybody lies.
He's in the root cellar.
You have three minutes to do this your way.
Wait, the headmaster said don't engage.
Two minutes, 59. Two minutes, 58.
Raf? Holy hell.
How did you find me?
There's, um, a-a lot of crazy
witchy people looking for you.
There's a bus full of burned-up people...
That wasn't me. HOPE: Then who was it?
You said three minutes.
Like I said, people lie.
Corporis impetu.
Hey!
Where's the knife?
I don't have it. I must've lost it when I ran.
After you burned the bus? That wasn't me, I swear.
I barely got out alive.
Hope, come on. Last chance.
Who the hell was it?
There was this girl...
Do you need to make a phone call?
Wait, wait, that's mine.
Can I have that...
Hey.
That-that-that's my watch.
Hey, Miss, wait, wait, Miss, I...

That's before I was a vampire.

HOPE: I don't believe anything you say.
LANDON: You have every right to be mad at me,
but I am telling you the truth.
Come on man, help me.
I believe him.
You believe that a fire-breathing woman
burned the bus alive?
Yeah.
And Landon happened to be spared?
He told you that he ran.
And conveniently lost the knife on the way.
Yes. She kept coming at me
like she was gonna take it from me.
She was burning everything in her path.
You want to explain to me what you were doing
stealing the knife in the first place?
I don't remember stealing it.
Of course not. How about pretending to be compelled?
That was to avoid being thrown back in the werewolf dungeon.
Transitional cellar. Small spaces.
Hope, you have to understand, Dr. Saltzman had already told me
the school wasn't gonna let me stay.
If he thought I'd talk, he'd lock me back up.
There wasn't a good ending for me.
I didn't want to steal from you and I don't want
