Rebekah (Claire Holt) has no choice but to side with Klaus, the one that she cannot really trust, in getting their older brother Elijah (Daniel Gillies) back. Klaus, Rebekah and Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin), who also wants Elijah to be saved, talk what they will do to bring Elijah home: Plan A will have Klaus simply ask Marcel to give Elijah back and Klaus reveals that there is always a Plan B and it is nothing but "war."
The Plan in Motion.
As expected, Marcel refused to hand back Elijah which made Klaus and Rebekah work on the players in their plan. Klaus trains new vampires while Rebekah investigates on the witch that tipped the pregnant werewolf Hayley to the vampires when she tried to poison her baby.
Rebekah finds out that Katie (Alexandra Metz), the witch, is in-love with a vampire named Thierry (Callard Harris) and he happens to be Marcel's right hand man. Klaus was please to know this piece of information and decided to use it in his plan against Marcel.
Sophie Finds Out About Davina.
Rebekah and Klaus shocked witch Sophie Deveraux (Daniella Pineda) after revealing that Marcel's secret weapon is Davina (Danielle Campbell). When the Mikaelsons ask Sophie to perform a simple locator spell to find Elijah, she hesitated because Davina would sense it and Marcel's rule would apply: "Witches who practice magic in this town get caught and they get killed."
In order for Davina not detecting Sophie's spell, the Mikaelsons plan to use Katie in performing a much stronger spell that would overshadow Sophie's locator spell. Afterwards, Klaus corrupts Marcel's mind regarding the vampire-witch relationship of Katie and Thierry and the possibility of the witches conspiring against him while Rebekah bonds with Cami (Leah Pipes), the apple of Marcel's eye, and invite her to the "Masquerade Gala" to keep Marcel distracted from finding out about the plan.
The Masquerade Gala.
This is where the chaos happened. Rebekah and Klaus arrived at Marcel's event with their players focused on doing their part in the plan. Marcel sent Thierry and a couple of night walkers to send a message to the witches and when Klaus' trained vampire hurts Katie, Thierry's anger made him kill their own kind.
Marcel finds out about what Thierry did and gets very upset since his trusted right-hand man broke his most important rule: vampires shall not kill vampires. Katie will perform the stronger magic spell in order to save the man she loves from Marcel's wrath and punishment while Sophie simultaneously conducts the locator spell to track Elijah.
However, Sophie's spell failed when Klaus killed Katie to make it look like he was saving Marcel and once again to gain his trust. Klaus' move caused Marcel to agree in giving back Elijah however Davina firmly refused.

Sophie send a witch named Sabine (Shannon Kane) to perform a "little trick" on Hayley to determine if the child will be a girl or a boy. However, Sabine discovered something to make her utter the words "Nos omnia perdetu el eam" sounding like bad news and Hayley tries to search on the Internet the translation. Will it be unveiled in the Episode 4 next week?
