Elijah helps Hayley with her dress
Okay, let me just start by saying that I love Elijah in his suits, but that dressed down look he’s sporting here is sexy as hell. Probably made all the sexier by the fact that it’s unusual for him. Anyway… Dear Gods, the way he looks at her. He can’t stop smiling, and it is freaking adorable. And his look of disappointment when she hesitated when he offered to take her out that night. Followed by the smile coming back when her reason was just not wanting to cause problems between him and Klaus. And then we get to him unzipping the dress he just helped her zip up. Pretty sure she didn’t need him to undo the whole thing. And he certainly could have managed a zipper without looking at it. Plus, look at the way she closed her eyes. These two haven’t even KISSED yet, and they were both imagining him taking that dress completely off of her, you could just tell. Dayum, these two are so hot. (Just ignore the bit after that. This clip splices that scene with like the last scene in the episode. Interesting scene, but has nothing to do with this one. (Though, Elijah telling Hayley that he’s “better now” when she walks into the room WAS kind of adorable.))
Josh talks to Klaus on the phone
I can’t find a clip of this one. But it’s hilarious. Klaus calls Josh, who tries to claim that he’s moved to Turkey – while the casket girls festival is going on right outside his window. And, bear in mind, he’s talking to KLAUS. A normal human being could probably hear that festival through the phone. No way in Hell Klaus doesn’t. I love Josh, so much.
Josh tells Davina not to hold back
Here is Josh’s loyalty, again. This time, to Davina. He knows that if Davina manages to kill Klaus, he’ll die too. And he doesn’t tell her. Because he wants her to be safe. And he’s willing to die for that safety. He’s willing to die for HER. Scenes like this one are why he’s one of my favorite characters.
Davina takes on Klaus, Elijah, and Marcel
There were no clips that combined both parts of this scene. So, had to use two of them. Anyway. As much as I love Elijah, and hate to see anything bad happen to him, Davina was awesome in this scene. The girl made THE original hybrid start to transition. I really think that she might have pulled off killing them, if she had really wanted to. I’m glad that she didn’t obviously, but it was kind of awe-inspiring to watch, anyway. And then Rebekah comes in with her girl power mantra, and probably actually saves everyone. Also, kudos to Claire Holt (I can’t credit the writers, because this has been done the wrong way on The Vampire Diaries, so many times). Rebekah caught Tim the right way. She didn’t do the usual movie/tv thing of him slamming into her arms three feet above the ground somehow didn’t kill him. She kept him moving, and just slowed his momentum down before setting him on the ground. You rarely see that done properly.
So, those are my favorite scenes. Obviously any decent Haylijah scene would make the cut. And I do love Josh to bits. Davina being a total badass, and Rebekah being awesome finish it up.
