[ ACROSS THE RIVER ]
[Gia and Elijah are on their way to see Lenore, while Gia unsuccessfully tries to make conversation]
Gia: So, you're not much of a talker, huh? - lying daggered in a box. Elijah: A certain someone - let's say a witch - has a troublesome tendency of jumping into other bodies. Esther: Of course! For a vampire, it is extremely heightened. Gia: Which is what? I have come to heal our family, Elijah. Lucky for you, though, I know someone who can help! Much like this meal. Rebekah, Kol, be careful! Tell Cassie that Lenore got rescued by her people? We must decipher her intentions before she finds a new host. Where is she? [Finn smiles kindly at Klaus, and Esther caresses his cheek with her hand]
