As the second episode of The Originals season 2 opens, the prologue takes us 1000 years back to Athens, Greece. The story follows a resurrected Esther, the mother of the Original vampires, and her pursuit to end her own children and have them walk the earth again as humans. In the present-day, we find the witches of New Orleans have something up their sleeves; they have revived Davina from the death, with a deal: Davina must concoct a spell that can connect them with the ancestors in exchange for bringing her back to life. The witches plan to use this spell to amplify their power to get rid of the Originals once and for all. However, Davina is not interested in aiding anyone in bringing harm to the Originals and is steadfastly refusing to cooperate, leading her to be locked away.

As Klaus, Elijah, and Hayley are trying to find out who is responsible for bringing Davina back from the dead, Marcel and Cami are investigating a mysterious murder that happened at the church. After talking to the victim's widow, Cami discovers that the killer is alive, and the police caught him. Marcel then compels the police to let him go, leading him to discover that his father, a vicious vampire who sees humanity as prey, is responsible for the murder.

Meanwhile, Vincent, the latest witch to arrive in town, is back to help solve the problem of Esther's resurrection. Speaking to Elijah and Marcel, he suggests that a curse he had once placed on the Originals could end up being their downfall. In the middle of this, Klaus shows up, looking for answers regarding the return of Esther.

While Elijah and Hayley try to find Davina on their own, Klaus goes to the witch who resurrected Esther and demands to know how her mother has managed to come back to life. The witch, Lenore, reveals that Esther needs the sacrificed blood of her children, and the closer the target's relationship to Esther, the stronger the power it gives her.

Back at the church, Marcel and Cami team up to take down his father, who has trapped a bunch of people inside the basement, including the intended victim. However, Marcel's father proves harder than he appears, and they have to struggle to take him down while they deal with his many tricks.

As Klaus and Elijah rendezvous with Haley to rescue Davina, they find themselves in a deadly confrontation with the young witch Madison, who gives Elijah a firsthand look at the incredible power she'd acquired from her ancestors. Elsewhere, Vincent conducts a spell to control Eva Sinclair, the witch who revived Esther and has been working against the Mikaelsons. Klaus discovers that Davina has been trapped and finally comes to her rescue, leading her to escape from the witches, but not without using the potion she had been working on to take control of the ancestral magic. The episode ends on a note of triumph as each of the characters gets a plan of what to do next.
