Previously on Legacies...
You know, I opened this school to protect these kids.
How am I supposed to protect them
from stuff that's not supposed to exist?
DORIAN: The monsters come one at a time.
I found myself not far from here
with an urge to possess that knife.
And who told you to do this? A voice in my mind.
MG: You think he'll go for her?
Probably.
They usually do.
JOSIE: Lizzie has dibs. HOPE: On Rafael?
She always calls dibs.
When's it gonna be your turn?
We're here to discuss if Landon should be allowed to stay
at the school.
Landon has to go.
(wind whistling)
ALARIC: I know what you're doing is important, Caroline.
But how do I tell the girls that their mom
isn't gonna be there for their 16th birthday?
I can't exactly tell them what you're really involved in.
No.
I-I am nowhere near cracking this case.
I have a knife, I have a symbol, I have a place, sort of,
but I don't know what any of it means,
a-and I don't know what's connecting it,
and I don't know what monster is coming next.
Ric?
I've got to call you back.
ALARIC: Dorian!
DORIAN: Are you okay?
Whoa, whoa.
Ric, if you could just put down the crossbow.
My freak-out level is about 11 right now.
You know her?
I know who she's supposed to be.
Who?
The love of my life.
♪ ♪
JO: Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Wait. Hold up. Hold...
hold up, Ric. Listen to Dorian.
Are you Dorian? Yeah.
I'm Jo.
You're his dead wife?
I m-- I mean fiancée.
I mean, uh...
You don't think she's actually...? No, I don't.
Did you see how she got here?
I was sort of, um...
yanked awake and then I was just here.
(chuckles): Nothing suspicious about that.
You thinking what I'm thinking?
Kill her now before she attacks?
Wait, what? I-I...
I was more, "Let's interrogate her."
Because if she's the next monster,
then maybe she would know more than the dryad did.
(sighs) What?
Okay, but no one sees her.
Especially today. Good idea.
I need Emma.
HOPE: Obviously, nothing's gonna come out of it.
I mean, I may never see him again.
And nobody wants a phone thing.
Though I do like the sound of his voice. It's low
and smart-sounding and kind of soothing.
And his eyes-- his eyes are, like, this green-gray color
that's not really a color, you know?
Like, they're green when he wears green, and then...
Oh, my God. Who am I right now?
(laughs) A normal teenager?
Though I do love hearing you talk about something
as simple as having a crush on a boy. (phone buzzes)
You do not need a counselor, Hope.
You need a friend.
RAFAEL: All right, let's get the rest of these chairs
and tables and get 'em out of here.
All right?
Let's go, let's go.
Perks of being an alpha.
Bunch of people you get to boss around.
More like a bunch of shadows
waiting to be told what to do.
Who put you on party duty?
I volunteered. What do you want? I'm busy.
Listen, Raf, I know you're mad at me
for sending Landon away, but...
I promise you, it was for his own good.
You've known him for two minutes,
and you know what's good for him?
I know that I want him to be safe.
Listen, Raf, I just came here to apologize.
And I thought maybe if...
I don't know, if you needed someone to talk to...
Whatever.
Actually, um...
I do kind of need help with something.
There's no fancy parties
in grand ballrooms where I come from.
I need to know what to expect for tonight.
I don't want to let Lizzie down.
Who cares what Lizzie Saltzman thinks? I do.
I'm her date.
Hey. I didn't see you
at breakfast. I'm too excited to eat.
Happy birthday to us.
Isn't it a beautiful day for a party?
You're... cheerful.
Why wouldn't I be? Mom's coming home,
I had sex with Raf, my pores are practically invisible...
Wait, what?
You had sex with... Last night.
You know how Mom always says that things work out
in the end the way they're supposed to?
She's right.
I wouldn't have time to represent the witches now
with a boyfriend,
so you getting the consolation prize is perfect.
Okay.
I need your help.
I'm going for Meghan Markle tasteful.
PENELOPE: Woot, woot!
Happy birthday, witches.
LIZZIE: Oh, look. It's Satan
in a crop top. Come to burn my world down? Retro.
Princess Di before she got style. I dig it.
What do you want? Oh, just to cheer you two up. You know,
'cause your mom's not coming.
What? What? Oh, I heard them cancel
her pickup at the office. I thought you knew.
Oops.
I put a basic boundary spell to keep her in.
Are you sure she can't do magic?
She couldn't before she died, so if she can now,
I guess we'll learn the hard way.
Um, she's right here.
And she's got a lot of questions.
Be careful with this one, Ric.
Okay, let's talk.
Who are you? What do you want?
I'm Josette Laughlin, almost Saltzman. No.
Jo Laughlin is dead.
I'm well aware. It's not every day
you get murdered at your shotgun wedding. Okay.
What's the last thing you remember?
Morning sickness.
My dress.
Our vows.
My psychopath twin brother with a very large knife. And then...
...nothing.
How long ago was that?
You look a little... seasoned.
About 16 years ago.
16 years.
(sighs)
I don't know what to say.
How are you? How have you been?
Oh, just cut the... Just drop the act, okay?
It's not an act, Ric.
This is Mystic Falls. I'm not exactly
the first person to be brought back from the dead.
Yeah, well, things have gotten a little complicated
around here lately.
(doorknob rattles, knocking)
LIZZIE: Uh, Dad?
Why is your door locked?
"Dad"?
And when were you going to tell us
that Mom wasn't coming back?
ALARIC: I was about to.
There-There's a strike at the airport in Mozambique.
LIZZIE: She couldn't compel a pilot
and hop on a private jet?
ALARIC: She'll explain everything later.
Okay? But right now I just need you
to go because I am wrapping your presents.
No, you're not. You're lying
through your teeth.
(Lizzie and Josie speak foreign language)
Who's this trollop?
Oh, my God. I need you to leave
right now. I'm sorry.
How old are you?
16. 16.
Today.
It's our birthday.
You're twins?
What are we interrupting here? ALARIC: I'm serious.
Do as I say and now just go.
Lizzie. What?
Lizzie, it's her.
Her who?
Her.
Holy crap.
You're Bio-mom.
This is impossible. I wasn't even showing
at our wedding. How...
Your family's crazy coven magically implanted them
in Caroline when you died.
She's their birth mother.
Caroline?
So...
you two... No.
She married Stefan Salvatore.
Who basically died on their wedding day, too,
but that's a long story.
They're still very close.
We opened this school together.
She's overseas right now doing very important
recruiting work.
I'm Lizzie. After my mother's mom.
And I'm Josie.
Josette. Like...
Me.
(chuckles softly) HOPE: So, the emcee
will then announce Lizzie and her escort.
Her what? Kind of like at a,
a debutante ball.
I grew up in foster care.
Okay. Well, they had stairs, didn't they?
So, you're gonna meet her halfway down.
How do you know all this stuff?
One of my aunts has been around for more than a thousand years.
This kind of thing is her jam.
So, what, I just stand here?
Then you take her arm.
Sort of like you're putting yours on top.
Yeah, like that. And then you descend together.
And now you bow.
(chuckles)
Yeah, you're messing with me. You think this is bad?
You know it's only gonna get worse, right?
Lizzie Saltzman has been planning
her sweet 16 since she was five.
You probably should've thought twice before asking
to be her date. Well, I didn't ask her.
All I know is that I can't let her down now.
Why?
Because I slept with her, Hope.
You're lucky I respect women
and that I shun all forms of toxic masculinity,
or else you and I would be throwing down right now.
Even if you can kick my ass.
Dude, I am here to help.
By telling Lizzie and Josie that their mom isn't coming?
Oh, that was just for Lizzie,
who is taking Rafael as her date instead of you.
So why are you doing all this
to try and make her party perfect?
'Cause a man's got to shoot his shot.
Oh, my God. No. I can't take it anymore.
As your friend, I demand that you retrieve your little MGs
from Lizzie's grip.
Not when I can taste victory.
(sighs)
Fine.
I'll make you a deal.
I will keep Werewolf Prince Charming away
from the party long enough for you
to shoot your one, final,
inevitably failed shot.
And when it's over, and the Queen of Mean
has broken your heart all over again, promise me
that you will let Lizzie go.
ALARIC: All right, one more time.
What's your name?
Josette Laughlin.
And what's your profession?
I'm a doctor.
I was, anyway.
Repeat after me:
I'm here to harm you.
How did you meet my dad?
That's not, uh, a question.
I walked up to him at a college party.
He was the only guy over 20. (laughs softly)
Was it love at first sight?
Jo.
Don't be so nosy.
Not quite.
I flirted with him and asked him
for a sip of his drink.
He told me he was a germophobe.
But I thought he looked like Indiana Jones, so...
This walk down weird old people memory lane is fun and all,
but we have a party to get ready for.
Will you still be here after?
ALARIC: I will be there when I can.
But right now the office is off limits.
One, two, three. One, two...
I can't believe you slept with Lizzie Saltzman.
Look, I was mad
and she was there. (exhales)
I didn't say I was proud of it.
You're leading.
You're officially a gigolo.
(scoffs)
Thanks for this.
(laughs)
I guess I'll see you at the party.
No, you won't.
So, what, you're just gonna stay in your room alone
while everybody else is out having fun?
Yep, works for me. Bullcrap.
Everybody needs a crew.
Kind of ironic coming from the reluctant alpha.
Okay, well, the pack is one thing, but a crew is a crew.
You know what? I had that in Landon until you sent him away.
We're back to that? I'm just saying. It's one thing
to be cool with being alone, and then it's another
to want to be the lonely girl on purpose.
As opposed to Mr. Good Guy, who's taking a girl
that you don't even like to her own party?
You know what, you're right.
Lesson learned.
The hell?
Barrier spell.
Fantastic.
Sorry, kids.
Nothing personal.
Let us out of here, Penelope.
You'll be free in an hour.
Plenty of time to practice that waltz.
ALARIC: I-I don't get it.
She hasn't tried to escape, not a word about the knife.
She knows things that only Jo knows and let's not ignore
the fact that I remember her,
so she's not like the other creatures.
Blunt force hasn't gotten them what they want,
so they've moved on to psychological warfare.
Tread lightly. If Jo is another monster,
she can do more damage to you than any dragon.
DORIAN: It was something she said...
Here.
There's an eyewitness account
of a group of World War I soldiers buried
in France who came back to life
and massacred a village.
After, they didn't remember hurting anyone.
And they all said they'd been "yanked" back into being.
Like Jo.
Wait, so someone or something resurrected them
and used them to attack a village?
Without them even knowing it.
Dad is so suspicious.
Uh, duh. So am I.
I just think that she's more fairy godmother than zombie.
She's not our mother.
She's DNA.
We can be mad at Mom all that we want for missing our party,
but we cannot cheat on her with Mombie Dearest.
You're not even dressed.
I don't want to be late to my own party.
I'm done.
I'll catch up with you, okay?
(door opens)
♪ ♪
Hey, Jo Jo.
Need an escort?
Sure.
Do you know anyone whose heart isn't made of stone?
Look, I am sorry about earlier.
I saw a chance to make Lizzie suffer
and, uh... I shot my shot.
Why can't you just ease up on her?
She sucks the air out of every room you're in.
She's my twin.
We can share oxygen.
Are you sharing love interests now, too?
Because she's the only one with a date.
See? You have crawled
so far down the codependence rabbit hole
that you think taking care of yourself is selfish.
But it's not.
So when are you gonna take care of you?
I take care of myself just fine.
Oh, really?
Party starts in five.
It's a shame you spent all of that time

That is a complicated question.
Humor me.
Well... (giggles)
Last year, there was this girl, um, but she dumped me.
Oh.
And now there's this boy.
Um, but Lizzie has dibs, so...
Does she know you like him?
No. That would be... bad.
Being 16 and having a strong twin sister isn't a cakewalk.
But anybody who spent five minutes with you
would know how special you are.
You're only saying that because you're...
It's okay.
Caroline is your mom.
She did a great job.
Lizzie's exactly like her.
You would never know that she's not her biological mom.
And you take after me.
(laughs)
I'm really happy you're here.
I honestly think that Dad is really lonely.
He's a pretty terrific guy, your dad.
But you can catch me up later.
You have a party to go to.
Actually, do you want to come with me?
RAFAEL: So you can slay a dragon,
but you can't get us out of here.
Only Penelope can undo the spell.
Or the twins could siphon the magic.
Well, that's unlikely, seeing as Lizzie probably thinks
I'm standing her up right now.
Her ego could use a little bit of deflating.
I'm not that guy, okay?
I don't just forget about people.
Relax. It's only been 12 hours.
It's not that!
Look,
it has only been six weeks since...
Your girlfriend died.
Cassie.
It's crazy, but I feel like...
like I cheated on her or something.
So if I can do right
by Lizzie, maybe that can... Then what?
It'll exonerate you? I don't know.
Maybe. Look, Raf,
you went through something awful,
and it's right to mourn your girlfriend,
but you can't pretend
to like Lizzie to make yourself feel better.
That's not doing her any good,
or yourself.

I sent him to someone

You sent him away by himself
to find the woman that gave him up.
What if she's amazing, and he finally gets a family?
He had a family.
He had me. A crew

Family is always and forever.
Yeah, you're right.

I'm on my way to the dance hall.
Ric?
Call off the dogs. I think I found her.
I think I'll keep 'em on standby.
Something's wrong.
How did you get out?
Josie wanted me to come to the party, and so,
she siphoned the spell again. I know it was stupid,
but I just... I wanted to see their Sweet 16.
Okay, just tell me exactly what happened.
I don't know. I-I was with her one minute, and then...
Ric, I lost time. I don't know. I must have
done something to her, but I just, I don't know.
(groans softly)

in your possession that will buy you the answer.
(laughs)
No need to rush.
I'm sure your daughter has an hour before she runs out of air.
(Jo grunts) Where is she?!
HOPE: Dr. Saltzman?
What's going on?
(panting) Hope, I need your help.
Hey. Have you seen Josie?
She's probably having the time of her life,
like I was until Prince Charming showed up
and turned me into the pumpkin.
I have hate in my heart.
I'm ready for battle.
We're gonna duel. No.
No, we're not doing that. I'm holding you to our deal.
As of this moment, Lizzie Saltzman's cancelled.
(footsteps approaching)
You gonna howl at the moon wearing that?
Sorry, no time for bitchy banter.
Actually... I could use your help finding Josie.
What happened? Apparently, her possessed
biological mother buried her alive in the cemetery.
We're coming with you.

DORIAN: Ric. Where is it?
Asking for a friend?
I need the knife, Dorian.
My daughter's life is at stake.
That's why I moved it.
I knew the monster was gonna make a play.
I need you to bring it to me now.

And until we do,

Are you happy?
I am happy right now

I will be happy when the girls are grown.
I promise. (sniffles)

No.
Not yet. And we...
don't want them to know until we've exhausted all options.

Ric, why don't you go home.
I'll take care of all of this.
(sniffles)
The only place I'm going
is to find whatever monster did this
and kill it.
Slowly.
(cackling nearby)
(chuckling)
It wouldn't do you any good.
And who the hell are you?
Oh. Your pathetic attempt at humor
does nothing to mask your fear.
Tremble then in the presence of
the Necromancer!
(cackles)
Who?
The...
Necromancer!
Bringer of life and death.
He who holds the Fates' threads.
The cursed king of the underworld!
It's not ringing any bells. You?
All I know about necromancers is from video games.
And they're, like, low-level
witch cannon fodder. (laughs)
I am no mere witch.
There's only one me, I assure you.
And now you've seen what I can do.
Let's get down to the business of a certain knife.
ALARIC: If you're the one responsible
for what went down today...
Yeah.
...you're gonna wish you were someone else.
I told you.
Death cannot hold me.
Buddy...
(grunts)
...we'll see about that.
