While Hope (Danielle Rose Russell) and Lizzie (Jenny Boyd) do some training/bonding at a carnival testing out Lizzie’s control of her new powers, and MG (Quincy Fouse) and Kaleb (Chris Lee) head out looking for the missing Ethan (Leo Howard), and Aurora de Martel (Rebecca Breeds) arrives at the Salvatore School taking the place of its new headmistress and looking for inspiration on how to kill a tribrid. The Hope/Lizzie storyline creates a new kind of bond between the pair while killing off the vampires in charge of the carnival who have been picking off innocents for fun. While not necessarily friends again, the pair are more than just a vampire and the compulsion of those they have sired.

The Ethan storyline is played mostly for laughs, although it does tie back to events of previous episodes and allow for the reintroduction of Ethan to the school. Events at the school have the largest impact with the return of Aurora and the merging of her quest with the newly-introduced god storyline. Her attack on Cleo (Omono Okojie) leaves the muse changed in ways she can’t yet comprehend which we should see play out over the next few episodes, and the information she forces out of Ben (Zane Phillips) suggests the lengths she is wiling to go to while foreshadowing the grave danger if she is successful. The threat to Ben forces Jed (Ben Levin) to take a hard look at his feelings as the show plays on the foundation laid between the characters in the previous episode and Finch (Courtney Bandeko) struggles to fit into the school after Josie’s exit.
