'The Originals' Season 2 Finale Spoilers: The Mikaelson Siblings go Head-to-Head With Dahlia in 'Ashes to Ashes' [Videos]
The Season 2 finale of "The Originals" will be dramatic and intense as the Mikaelson siblings will reunite and fight for their lives in an epic showdown against Dahlia.
From the beginning of Dahlia's arrival in New Orleans, the all-powerful witch has caused lots of drama and chaos. Now it will be up to Klaus, Elijah and Rebecca to stop her plot to take Baby Hope's power and defeat the evil once and for all. In the meantime, Davina will try to execute her own plan, which includes bringing Kol back.
In last week's episode, Klaus forced Rebekah to kill herself so that she would be freed from living in a witch's body and return to her original state as a vampire. According to actress Claire Holt, living as a temporary witch has definitely changed Rebekah's outlook on life.
"Rebekah's always wanted family, and she's always wanted children and a life, and so I think she sort of started to see that there was some of those things that were possible in her witch body," said Holt to Entertainment Weekly. But, "Klaus had other plans for her. He felt that she was more durable in the original body, in my body. It was a decision that was made for her, and she understood that there were reasons behind it. But I think she's feeling conflicted as to what she really wants to do and how she wants to lead her life, and [in] which body that would be."
Despite Klaus' sinister nature, Holt suggested that Rebekah will be able to forgive her brother.
"Rebekah and Klaus' relationship is so layered and so complex and deep, and I think she's sort of in a different boat to Elijah. Elijah has had so much taken from him [by] Klaus of late, and I think that their relationships are different. I wouldn't say that this was the end for [Klaus and Rebekah]. I think she's definitely frustrated with the way that [Klaus] behaved, but I think Elijah has more reason to disconnect with Klaus after all of this."
The actress went on to tease what fans can expect in the finale.
"The plan in this episode is for the Originals to use Davina's magic to help take down Dahlia," she said. "And while it's difficult for Rebekah to know that she needs to use this young girl, she also needs to unite with her family for a more pressing issue, which is Dahlia. And so I think it's difficult for Davina in this episode to understand why they would work against her, and she's frustrated and she's angry, but it's a necessity and it's the plan that has been laid out to lead to the epic battle at the end of the episode."
She added, "There's a huge showdown at the end of this episode, and the outcome will be totally unexpected."
She also described the finale, saying, "There's a lot of action; there's a lot of drama. I think the audience will be on the edge of their seats the entire time, which is what you expect from a show like this."
