The Originals Season 1 Episode 6 Fruit of the Poisoned Tree Summary Plus Promo





The previous episode of the series tells us all about the withes. Davina’s coven had planned to complete “The Harvest,” a ceremony designed to keep their ancient powers flowing but it required a minor sacrifice. More specifically, “The Harvest” required three worthy young witches to be slain, then eventually revived during the “The Reaping.”

Of course, the witches didn’t count on the interference of Marcel who was totally boning Sophie, by the way. It’s apparently Marcel’s mission to bang every New Orleans resident, with and without a heartbeat, and he’s doing a damn good job of it. Sophie enlisted the help of her boy-toy to stop “The Harvest,” but he was too late to save Sophie’s niece. Instead, all of the girls’ abandoned powers went into Davina, the only girl not slaughtered, which means “The Reaping” can never be completed as long as Davina remains alive.

The episode ended with Sophie vowing to destroy Davina, allowing for Monique’s return which is really not good. There’s no way Sophie stands a chance against Davina, and if she tries to fight her, Hayley and her baby will end up suffering!

This week’s episode also brought the long-awaited reunion of Elijah with the rest of the Mikaelsons. Not that I didn’t enjoy Eli’s little attic chats with Davina, but I was so glad to see the Original family most of them, anyway all under the same roof.

The only interaction that puzzled me was between Elijah and Hayley towards the end of the hour. After exchanging greetings with Klaus and Rebekah , Eli followed Hayley outside, where she proceeded to slap him and say, “Don’t make promises you can’t keep.”

Am I the only one who half-expected them to kiss?! It’s possible that after all these years, my mind is finally melting into shipper soup, but I swear I saw sparks between them.

I spent the first few episodes of The Originals wondering when I was going to start caring about token-human Cami, then along came last week’s episode and this week’s and suddenly, she’s one of the most interesting characters on the show.

Last week, we learned about Cami’s twin brother who went nanners and killed a bunch of his fellow seminary students, and I’m glad we didn’t have to wait too long to find out why! During one of this week’s many flashbacks, we saw that Agnes put a li’l hex on Cami’s brother, making it seem like he was totally losing his mind.

In the next episode of the originals season 1 episode 6 entitled Fruit of the Poisoned Tre , When Klaus discovers Hayley’s life is being threatened, he goes to extreme lengths to protect her and their unborn baby. Having a difficult time dealing with the tragic events of her past, Camille turns to Father Kieran for guidance. Feeling as though he can trust no one, Marcel visits an old friend to seek out some advice, while Davina takes steps to learn how to control her magic. Finally, Klaus delivers some surprising news to Kieran.

Here is the promo of the upcoming episode this coming November 5, 2013:
