‘The Originals’ season 2, episode 18 preview: Joseph Morgan, cast meet Claudia Black’s Dahlia

Klaus -Be prepared for a crazy episode of “The Originals” next week entitled “Night Has a Thousand Eyes.” Why is that? Let’s just say that after a ton of waiting, Claudia Black is finally going to arrive in New Orleans with a mission … and it’s a bad one. She wants to completely destroy Klaus’ family, at least in the form of Baby Hope.

Just to make sure that this was in an even worse situation for Joseph Morgan’s character than it would have been otherwise, there is one other thing that Klaus has to worry about in this episode: Mikael coming back. Expect this to be one of the most contentious episodes in recent memory, as we see him struggle to keep himself together with so many threat staring him in the eye. Granted, he’s going to have plenty of help from some of his friends and family.

The synopsis below is a lengthy one, but it also happens to be rather informative. Take a look:

“Desperate to find a way to vanquish Dahlia (guest star Claudia Black), Klaus (Joseph Morgan) soon finds himself face-to-face with another deadly threat – Mikael (guest star Sebastian Roché). Meanwhile, as Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) and Rebekah (guest star Maisie Richardson-Sellers) work with Freya (guest star Riley Voelkel) to track Dahlia’s whereabouts, Elijah (Daniel Gillies) and Marcel (Charles Michael Davis) prepare a safe house in Algiers with the help of Josephine (guest star Meg Foster). Elsewhere, determined to protect Hayley and baby Hope, Jackson (guest star Nathan Parsons) approaches Hayley with a risky idea that leaves her conflicted. Finally, Aiden (guest star Colin Woodell) finds himself torn between his loyalty to Jackson and his secret alliance with Klaus.”
