THE GARDEN

Rebekah has her arms wrapped around Dove's waist, chin resting on her shoulder. Dove leans further into her arms.

Dove looks down at Tyler Lockwood's body

Dove: Who's that?

Rebekah: Just some annoying cunt, darling.

Dove: Where are you and Marcel going to put Klaus? We don't want him doing anything. Marcel says he has a way with words. How long do you plan on keeping him locked up?

Rebekah: 54 years. I'll settle for long enough to experience just a little bit of happiness. And ensure that my niece isn't turned to a hybrid breeding machine. It's gonna be tough to keep him in here. Could you or Davina even the odds in our favor?

Dove: I can't risk Vina. She's got less and less control over her magic lately. I can't even get her out of the church attic, much less rely on her to go to battle against Klaus.

Rebekah: Then we'll need your very best warriors. Klaus is strong and crafty, and betrayal makes him particularly nasty.

Dove: What we're doing is nothing Klaus hasn't done to both you and your brother four dozen times over. You're not getting second thoughts now, are you?

Rebekah: These aren't second thoughts. They're feelings of regret. I should have buried him a hundred years ago. A hundred years we could've been together.

Dove looks over her shoulder, smiling at her and Rebekah kisses her.

Dove: I love you

Rebekah: I love you too, darling.

BAYOU

Hayley walks outside to find Eve standing several yards away. When she sees Hayley, she runs in the opposite direction away from her

Hayley: Hey. H---

She's cut off when her phone begins ringing, she looks down seeing Dove calling. She smiles and answering

Hayley: Hey Sugar.

Dove: Are you okay?

Hayley: I'm fine, baby.

Dove: Why don't you let me come out there and let me take care of you?

Hayley: Nh-uh, babe. You stay right where you are when I know you're safe and sound.

Dove: But---

Hayley: No buts. I'll see you when this is done, okay?

Dove: Okay. Can you at least hold me in your arms?

Hayley: We'll have all the cuddles you want.

Dove: I love you

Hayley: I love you more, Sugar.

She hangs up the phone and smiles happily.
