‘The Originals’ season 3, episode 18 preview: The aftermath of Finn shocker

On this past episode of “The Originals,” we saw the further rise to power of Lucien, otherwise known as the one character most people out there who are fans of the show probably want to see die and for good reason. Also, we said farewell to a character in Finn who we rather liked … or at least we think we said goodbye. The reality with this show sometimes is that you never quite know one way or another given the frequency in which some people turn back up from the dead.

Going into Friday night’s new episode, what seems clear is that Klaus is once again in danger, Aurora and Lucien may have more momentum than ever before, and there is going to be a serious showdown to determine the safety of many of our heroes. Also, there’s jazz music, just in case you prefer this show when it is an advertisement for New Orleans. (It is in moments like this that we wish that they showed us more beignets.)

Take a look at the synopsis below alongside the promo, since we feel like those two things in-tandem should give you a fairly good idea as to what is coming up in this installment:

“The city celebrates its annual Jazz Fest, an unlikely team of Mikaelson foes joins forces to take Klaus (Joseph Morgan) hostage. Leading the charge to get their brother back, Elijah (Daniel Gillies) and Freya (Riley Voelkel) face off against a powerful force like none they’ve ever seen before, while Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) and Cami (Leah Pipes) set their own risky plan in motion to rescue Klaus. Meanwhile, when Kol’s (guest star Nathaniel Buzolic) erratic behavior worsens, Davina (Danielle Campbell) has no choice but to turn to Marcel (Charles Michael Davis) and Vincent (Yusuf Gatewood) for help.”
