Yeah, but some episodes just lead to more comments based on what happens. This one seemed to be either Francis was right or Francis was wrong. Discuss and fight to the death!

The séance was weird and there were a few other issues, but I thought this was a strong episode smartly focusing on Regina, with Cora and Mary Margaret.

Yeah, it was easy to empathize with Ava if she really wanted to marry Leopold. She had been engaged to him and right before she gets the boot by revealing someone was deceiving him.

I'm not watching The Originals, but the writers have said it's a completely different (for some bizarre unexplained reason) universe. The magic is different, so anyone killed in New Orleans won't go to Bonnie, etc.

Well they did mention their coven, so there should be more.

I knew there were some doctors to see him, but I think she should keep going- looking for more and more of them.

Exactly! He's always had something lurking there, but he was about to act on it at the end of the last episode.

No, he's shady business with his phone call after the Teddy/Deacon/Rayna interview.

For me, it's not that Mary is always right, but she's the one who gets to decide what path she takes- not her husband.

I thought for sure Francis was going to kill the footman in spite of the promises he made for his safety. How could he let that guy go? Maybe he didn't.

I would like to see Catherine's reaction to what Francis has done. So far Catherine has put France above any kinship she would feel to another strong female monarch.

Francis locking Mary in a tower until she calmed down is not the answer. He forgot to ask her if she was PMSing.

4. They didn't show Tyler get possessed, but after he stabbed Liz he looked up to someone who was there…and apparently they moved faster than him and jumped in for a ride?

Yeah, he's going to be part of the SPN spinoff, which is why I was surprised he actually lived.

I got the part that the prophecy was a ruse to lure them in. It was the goal of where they go from the doppleganger blood that I don't understand. Just living together is enough? There has to be more or the witches wouldn't be threatened enough to cast such a serious curse. That's what I'm not following.

Really? So the goal is for them to live peacefully in a group? They can only gather now when they aren't in their own bodies I got. (Where are their bodies anyway?)

I'm not sure where the triangle stands. Stefan and Elena aren't together and agreed that what they had is over, but still love each other. Damon and Elena aren't together, agree that they aren't good for each other, but love each other, and Damon doesn't want to be around her. I think if any of those are going to…

I didn't really love this one either. It was dull. I'm not upset or disappointed the prophecy wasn't true, but similar to Silas…what is the Traveler goal again? They want to band together and get some blood…for what? Why should I be concerned for the Mystic Falls Gang?

I really, really liked this episode. Part of it was because I hadn't been spoiled and I actually watched it the night it was on!

That's fair, but not everyone can be like that. I wouldn't watch a season for Tasha alone- those are rare personalities (hi Malcolm, call me!), but Tasha in the mix of this group with LJ, Sarah, Tony, and Woo as examples, fits as a person who wants to be there and has been trying to play from the start. I was really…
