Quotes 

• Klaus Mikaelson : Seems rather uncivilized to laugh and dance around the body of a loved one.

  Elijah Mikaelson : [disdainfully]  Yes, far better to practice your process of grief, Niklaus. Denial, rage, and hoarding coffins in basements.

• Elijah Mikaelson : [funeral procession, Hayley coughs]  Are you okay? You look...

  Hayley Marshall : A hundred months pregnant and pissed off at the world?

  Elijah Mikaelson : I was going to say you look lovely.

  Hayley Marshall : Do you think I was the target of those bombings?

  Klaus Mikaelson : Of course you were the target. Were I to wage a war against the wolves, you'd be my first kill. I would string you up...

  [gestures] 

  Klaus Mikaelson : for all your worshipers to see.

  [an idea that does not go down well with Hayley] 

  Elijah Mikaelson : I believe that was my brother"s way of telling you he would like you to return home with us. Perhaps try a different approach, Niklaus. With fewer references to murder.

  Klaus Mikaelson : [to Hayley]  As much as I would hate to throw you over my shoulder and drag you kicking and screaming to the compound, we both know I will... for the sake of my child.

  Hayley Marshall : One bad dream, and suddenly you wanna be a responsible daddy.

  Klaus Mikaelson : [places his arm around her shoulder]  Let me put this in perspective.

  [Hayley can't stand that arm draping around her] 

  Klaus Mikaelson : My father lived to torment me. It is not my intention to become him. This cycle of misery ends with my child.

  Hayley Marshall : Hmm.

  [shoves that arm away] 

  Hayley Marshall : You forgot one thing in your attempt to plead your case. She's not your child. She's ours.

  [breaks away] 

  Elijah Mikaelson : Very heartfelt, Niklaus.

  Klaus Mikaelson : I bloody hate funerals.

  Hayley Marshall : [moving to front of procession]  Cami.

  Camille O'Connell : Hayley, hi.

  Hayley Marshall : Hi. I

  [sighs] 

  Hayley Marshall : know you don't know me. Um... I just wanted to say that... I'm sorry about your uncle. He was really... good to people like me during the storm, and I really appreciated that.

  Camille O'Connell : Thank you. You want something, don't you?

  Hayley Marshall : I'm... sorry about the timing. I was just wondering... if before he died, he said anything weird about Francesca Correa. I think that she may have been involved in an attack on the bayou. If you hear anything...

  Camille O'Connell : Look, Hayley, I'm trying... mostly failing, to stay out of all this stuff. But... she's a real bitch, so, yeah, if I hear anything, I'll let you know.

  Hayley Marshall : Thanks. Again, sorry about your uncle.

  Camille O'Connell : Me too.

• Genevieve : [in the voodoo shop]  You disappeared from the party.

  Elijah Mikaelson : Would you care to explain why you would choose to torment us with visions of our father?

  Genevieve : [surprised]  Your father? Oh, I didn't. I wouldn't...

  Elijah Mikaelson : [sarcasm]  Of course! How foolish of me! It must have been that other witch that's been parading through our house in scraps of lace.

  Klaus Mikaelson : I know how talented you are with your tongue, Genevieve. Might I recommend you use it to provide answers? I would so hate to tear it from your mouth.

  Genevieve : As much as I... enjoy these repeated accusations of wrongdoings, I don't know what you are talking about.

  [shakes her head] 

  Genevieve : But if you've both been seeing your dead father, I can try to get you answers.

  Klaus Mikaelson : [his hand on her shoulder]  Fine. Go.

• Hayley Marshall : If I died and someone threw a party, I would be so pissed.

  Elijah Mikaelson : You almost did. In a thousand years, I can't recall a time I've ever felt so... frightened.

  Hayley Marshall : Elijah...

  [they kiss] 

• Genevieve : [likely suspect turned out to be innocent]  So am I in the clear, Elijah? Or is there a new conspiracy you two would like to threaten me over?

  Elijah Mikaelson : Nothing springs to mind at this precise moment.

  Genevieve : Oh, gee, thanks. I have to get back to the girls.

  [to Klaus:] 

  Genevieve : Perhaps tomorrow after the funeral, you and I could... spend some time together. Alone.

  Klaus Mikaelson : [coolly]  I suppose we'll have to see.

  [Genevieve sighs, leaves] 

  Elijah Mikaelson : You tell me you've designed a stronger method to control the witch than playing hard to get.

  Klaus Mikaelson : Well, I've always been partial to the classics.
