Previously on Legacies...

My daughter Josie's under the influence of black magic.

Hope thinks we can get Josie back.

Hope's in Josie's mind?

I have plans for Mr. Kirby.

You killing Landon is not your fault.

I'm gonna find a way to save you both.

I want that black magic

for myself.

You set them free, too.

No strings attached.

Icaeus.

Josie, you can fight her.

I'm not afraid of you anymore.

Alyssa.

Back?

Not a zombie? Don't make it a big thing.

I just put my siphon power into this coin

till I'm ready to use it.

The Necromancer freed me and Alyssa, but Landon,

he-he should be back by now.

That's not our only problem.

I don't understand. What's wrong with her?

I'm not sure.

But she won't wake up.

I'm sorry it came to this.

I wish I could be by your side as I say my final goodbye.

I'm sad my life has been cut short,

but you taught me to live it to the fullest.

And if I can go out doing

this one good thing that will help you live a better life,

it was worth it.

I love you, Hope.

Always and forev...

Where the hell do you think you're going,

you pernicious little twit?

I know we've been through a lot in the last few days.

Well, months, really.

Okay, it's been a rough couple years, to be honest.

And I wish I could say the worst was over.

But no matter what comes next, I firmly believe

that we will be able to get through it if we stand

united as a school,

a community...

Sorry, just for clarification,

does "our community"

include your daughter, who murdered me

and held the entire school hostage

to stage a grotesque display of black magic power?

Josie is back to normal

and safe. Thanks to Hope,

who I'm noticing

isn't here at the ass crack of dawn like the rest of us.

So much for unity, I guess.

Hope, I'm sure you all can understand, was hit hard

by what happened to Landon,

and she's just taking some time for herself.

- Speaking of, how is my boy Landon? - Getting Landon

back is my top priority, and I won't stop

until I do. And that would go

for any one of you.

Okay, so, what are we supposed to do now?

And why are we all wearing gym clothes?

Something you haven't had a chance to do

in far too long:

be kids.

I want you to remember what it's like

to not have to worry about something you shouldn't have to

and grow closer together in the process.

Now, before you ask me how...

As president of the Student Activities Committee,

I'd like to welcome you all to the first ever

Salvatore School Field Day.

The buses are waiting for you outside.

Don't forget to bring

your smiles.

A freaking field day?

As in an entire day spent in an actual field.

That's your plan to get everyone to stop looking at Jo

like she's an ax murderer?

Have you got a better one?

I'm so glad that you asked.

Based on my own personal growth,

I have created a 17-step approach.

Elizabeth, I have got time for exactly one step,

and that involves you looking out for your sister

while I deal with Landon, among many other things.

Dad, that's impossible.

I'll have to deploy the nuclear option,

which is me backsliding to using my mean girl bully pulpit

to persuade everyone to forgive and forget

all the awful things that Jo did.

And I'm just not that person anymore.

Lizzie?

Oh, careful, witches. Don't let her

catch you laughing, or she might snap.

Your necks, that is.

On second thought...

let the games begin.

Ted?

S-Sorry to bug you, I-I think I just forgot my headphones.

It is I, the all-powerful Necromancer!

Ha ha!

All alone.

Oh, if only I hadn't treated you so badly.

To make it up to you,

I will raise any monster of your choosing.

A Pegasus, you say?

Whatever your heart desires, my dear friend.

Rise.

Er...

that wasn't me.

Whoa, you're no horsey.

I am Nimue. The Lady of the Lake.

I'm-I'm Chad.

Just Chad.

I do require your help,

if you are a worthy man.

We must go. Now.

We have to keep this between us.

The rest of the school can't handle knowing

Hope is down, too.

What do you think's wrong with her?

The Necromancer must have used black magic

to take her out.

Wait. I-I thought that the spell that you did

to bring all of us back was unbreakable.

Yeah, I don't know how he got around it.

But I know how to find out. Where you going?

To force some answers out of that pompous ass.

If you're gonna do this, let me come with you. Absolutely not.

I know we need Hope, but we need you at the school, too,

or we'll definitely fall apart.

Look, maybe you can just slow down

and think about it for a second.

My room isn't big enough for three bodies.

You... you... you must deal with

this lying, cheating, backstabbing miscreant.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Get in there, you insubordinate little...

Landon.

Hi.

Sorry, bro.

Can somebody tell me what the hell's going on right now?

You can see him. Curious.

Perhaps because you were recently

attached to me in death.

I'm in possession of the phoenix's

infuriatingly stubborn spirit.

But the dark magic I was promised

remains out of my grasp until birdbrain here

returns from the dead.

Now all I need to do is drop him back into his body,

and we can all go about our merry business.

So what are you waiting for?

The little pillock won't come back!

This is going so great.

Right?

Except for whatever Wade's doing.

LARPing. Oh.

As a fairy faction of one.

Like you said, so far so good.

But the real test will be when the different factions

pick captains to start playing games together,

with vampires, witches and werewolves

on the same team for a change.

Before that happens, I just want to soak in

this golden moment,

when we both believed that maybe,

just maybe, your plan would have worked.

It will, just give it time.

I can't. Not when Josie's reputation is at stake.

Okay. Lizzie, I know this tone of voice.

Please tell me what you're getting ready to do.

Nothing that you or I will be proud of,

so, like I said, remember this,

and try and forget what I'm about to do next, okay?

Li-Lizzie. Lizzie...

If I'm elected as your captain, I want you to know

that I'm only choosing witches for my team.

Because unity starts in the coven.

With one obvious exception we can all agree on.

So, all those in favor,

say... Nay.

Look, I know it has been a tough time,

so I would like to remind you

of a simpler one.

The way that things used to be.

And what will happen if you don't vote for me

as your captain.

Is that a threat? Only to those

dumb enough not to fall in line.

Lizzie, don't do this.

That is so Josie.

The same Josie that we have known for years.

Okay? The kindhearted,

compassionate, considerate Josie. The same Josie

who would stick her neck out for any one of you.

Don't!

Yes, she messed up.

But you've been messed up your whole life,

and we have all had to deal with it.

So, with a gentle reminder

that I know where you all live...

...who votes for me?

I truly appreciate everyone's support.

And for my first pick as captain?

Josie.

Cool.

Because MG told me I get to pick the game.

Quit playing games.

Are you telling me you're not powerful enough

to force him into his body?

Not powerful enough?

I am the lord of the restless dead.

The judge of all men's fates.

I swim laps in the River Styx.

But even I have...

limitations.

Technically, I can only raise a spirit

to life if the spirit or the host is willing.

Well, that's a big technicality.

At least it matches his ego.

Never has a soul

been so stubborn

as to refuse my gracious offer

- to return to this realm. - Fine.

We will convince Landon, okay? But what about Hope?

Oh, honestly,

the last thing I need is Tribrid hellfire

raining down on me over this,

so maybe us chaps just keep this under our chapeaus until...

What did you do to her?!

What are you blathering about?

What's wrong with Hope?

She won't wake up.

And we think that it has something

to do with the black magic.

That's not me.

I haven't even gotten full use of the magic yet.

You think you can work on Landon

while I figure out what happened to Hope?

You should go help Dr. Saltzman.

Yeah, I will. Right after you come back.

I can't.

See? He's an unreasonable, ungrateful git.

Do you think I want you to get any of that black magic?

What?

That's the reason why you won't come back?

Literally, everybody else was cool with it,

you fallow-breathed toad.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. You're not helping.

We both want the same thing, right? Yeah.

All right, let me talk to him alone.

Fine.

You have an hour.

This is gonna be a disaster.

We need to rethink this.

No way, Jo-say, because

as stirring and intentionally terrifying as my speech was,

do you know what speaks louder than words?

Actions? Winning.

Alyssa wormed her way on to a team

full of vampires and werewolves and chose tug-of-war.

I mean, this rope

weighs more than me. I shouldn't be the anchor.

Not after you cast immobilus.

No, I can't do that. Don't think of it as cheating.

Okay? Think of it as, taking action.

The perfect hero move.

No, no, no. Lizzie, Lizzie, no, no, no...

All right, Salvatore Stallions!

Is everybody ready

for some friendly inter-faction competition?

Lizzie! Thank you for your words

of encouragement, Jo.

I think I speak for us all when I say

it lifts our spirits

to victory.

We're ready. Blow the damn whistle.

Jo, what are you waiting for?

I told you, I can't!

Come on!

Abort! Abort!

So...

Josie's a mud monster like Malivore.

It all makes sense now.

I'm not following any of this.

Look, if I stay dead,

The Necromancer doesn't get the dark magic that he wants,

Malivore can't use the phoenix as a vessel,

and everyone that I love will stay safe and alive.

Hope is literally in a hero coma. Hero moves

always lead to...

...tragedy.

Okay. So what do you want me to do?

Let the bad guy win?

Lan, out there the bad guy wins every day.

You know that as well as I do.

Bad guy has been

beating our asses since day one.

So why does this gotta be the time

that you stop fighting back?

Don't look at me like that.

This never would've happened if you had just

cast the spell sooner. Or if you'd just listened to me.

I can't do magic, Lizzie! I put it away.

What?

Why the hell

would you do that without telling me?

I tried.

It's okay, Jo.

We're listening now.

You trying to help is the problem.

Everybody should be mad at me for what I did.

And you trying, it doesn't change anything.

You're making everything worse, like you used to.

So please,

please just let me deal with this on my own.

Jo... Stop.

I'm sorry.

Um...

That wasn't me.

No magic, remember?

I can explain.

Kind of.

Or, well, she can.

I am Nimue, the Lady of the Lake.

Protector of Excalibur,

the enchanted blade of kings...

Okay, Game of Thrones.

We get it.

Translation:

she wants the sword that I

borrowed from Dr. Saltzman,

which, as it turns out,

is the actual Excalibur.

But anyways, I figured

I'd run it by you all first, seeing as

odds are fairly high that she's, one of the bad guys.

Good job, Wade.

As for you, sister,

we do not negotiate

with Malivore monsters.

If it is monsters you fear,

you must give me this blade.

For a true monster is magically bound to me by its power

and pursues Excalibur as surely as I do.

Entrust the sword to me,

and I shall take it to the protected isle of Avalon.

If you hesitate, this world

will surely be plunged into darkness.

Sorry. We've been through this sort of thing

way too many times.

On second thought, maybe you should give her the sword.

I'm afraid it is too late.

MG, are you okay?

I-I can't control it.

The challenge has begun.

And only the worthy shall win.

What the hell is that thing?

The Green Knight.

Once noble and now a monster,

his body and soul corrupted and decayed as a result of the power

he became unworthy to wield,

his thirst for more making him a scourge upon mankind.

Well, too bad for him.

We already have one of those.

Why is he moving so slow?

I placed a curse upon him eons ago.

As the Green Knight

approaches Excalibur,

he will move

more slowly with each step

he takes.

But he will reach it.

And when last

the Green Knight wielded Excalibur,

Camelot fell

and the Dark Ages began.

So how do we stop him?

As the Green Knight last held Excalibur,

he is its rightful owner.

Only a worthy challenger...

a champion... may defeat him.

Now, I am bound by duty

to find one, but if you

do not believe yourself capable of it,

and you value your lives...

...now is the time to run.

Oh, come on.

Really? Everybody?

Pedro?

When did you get here?

The lower school's finger painting.

This is where I belong.

Well, you came to the right place, Lady.

'Cause killing monsters is kind of what we do.

That is so hot.

You're damn right it is.

And I'm gonna recycle this tin can.

Wait! Jed, wait!

Oh!

The worthy champion must

wield Excalibur.

Only its power can fell the Green Knight.

Cool.

Thanks for telling us that now.

So, who's it gonna be?

Would it be that bad to have a ghost roommate?

I could float over teachers' desks and get us test answers.

I could, I could, I could, I could drift around the hallways

and see what girls are into you.

Ghost wingman.

Yeah, and, um, when Hope finally comes back?

She'll understand. She has to.

If she were in my position, she'd do the exact same thing.

Are you sure about that?

When she head-dove Josie, she was taking a risk.

She was willing to sacrifice herself for the greater good.

Now it's my turn to make that sacrifice.

No, Lan.

Look, after what I did to you,

I think it's my turn.

Hey.

To bring back Landon, you only need the spirit

or the host to be willing, right?

Correct.

And what is the status of the spirit?

Unwilling.

So I want you to put his spirit in me.

Well, this just got spicy.

Look, here's the deal. I can study every sleep spell

known to man, but...

I think we both know what's going on, deep down inside.

You know that Landon is dead.

And you know that if you wake up,

you're gonna have to face that grief.

And as somebody who has experienced that grief

more times than I care to count, I would never

wish that upon you or anyone else.

But the truth is, we need you here.

Landon needs you.

We all need you.

Now, then. What if one of you

just grabs the sword and vamps it away?

The Green Knight shall follow

his challenger to the ends of the earth,

carving a swath of death and destruction in its path.

Yeah, that. So... Okay.

- I - brought the sword here,

so I should be the one to face him.

Unless someone has a better idea.

Anyone? Someone? Please?

You heard the Little Mermaid.

Beating this thing isn't about

who's at fault,

it's about who's worthy.

You know what?

Dr. Saltzman put me in charge, so...

Throwing a field day

doesn't make that sweet ass of yours worthy.

True worthiness comes from being kindhearted, compassionate,

considerate.

So thank you,

Lizzie, for reminding us all

that your sister exemplifies those qualities.

It should be her who faces

an honorable death against

Gigantor over there.

You know just as much as I do that Josie

is the least worthy person here, even if she did do us

all a huge favor by getting rid of you.

Because, for the record, you're a killer, too.

But hey,

at least your parents aren't here

to see what you've become.

If that's how you really see me,

then I guess I don't belong here anymore.

So I'm Team Monster now.

Good luck beating one without me.

Jo, I'm sorry.

It shouldn't have come out that way.

You were just being honest, so I should be, too.

Alyssa was right. It has to be me.

Like hell... Lizzie, this is exactly what you wanted.

It's what you've been trying to make me do all day,

a hero move to show everyone how sorry I am

and that I belong at the school.

You don't have any magic.

What good will being back be if you're dead?

It's a risk I'm willing to take.

It's the same risk that you, Hope,

everyone made to bring me back from the darkness.

So I have to prove that it was worth it.

So please, don't try to stop me.

Fine. Have it your way.

But you're not doing it alone.

Okay.

Well?

Only Excalibur may defeat the Green Knight,

and only a worthy champion may wield it.

Son of a bitch.

Okay.

Anything else that you would like

to share with the group?

You can't do this.

It's my sacrifice, Lan.

It's the same hero move that you were willing to make.

This is different.

How?

Do it. Gladly.

Don't do it. You don't get a vote anymore!

Raf. Raf.

Saved by the actual bell.

Hey.

Oh, thank God.

Landon?

I thought you were dead.

Halfway there.

How do you guys come up with these twists?

Oh, I love this place.

Chad.

Hi. I was,

at the crypt, but-but only because I forgot my headphones.

I didn't touch any of your stuff or mess with the pit at all.

Yeah, yeah. Well,

a-a lady monster came out of it,

and she asked for a worthy champion,

which means she was looking for Hope.

I watch you guys in the basin all the time.

Hope's so smart and pretty

and, you know, always saves the day.

Hope is unavailable

at the moment.

What else did she say?

She was in search of a sword?

She sensed it was in a field?

The field day.

We should go help them.

I'm not going anywhere until you get back in your body.

Oh, yeah.

It's in there.

What are we gonna do?

We've all tried and we're officially out of time.

You led me to believe that you were capable

of vanquishing monsters.

We usually are, but our main champion's a little busy.

Then there is no hope?

That's the whole point.

We're not worthy.

But we all know who is.

So where the hell is Hope Mikaelson when you need her?

She isn't coming.

I mean, I... I wish I was wrong,

but we have to prepare ourselves for that.

To make her proud of us

for saving the day just like she always does.

And the only way to do that is together.

United.

So please, just believe in me

half as much as I believe in you

and we can get through this.

I do not believe you will.

Not unless the blood of kings runs through your veins.

Hold up.

That is what you think being worthy means?

Yes. It is the very definition.

Okay, boomer, maybe in your time.

And yet again, information

that would have been useful before now.

The fact remains,

Excalibur was tainted, and now your world will pay the price.

Listen, I don't care what some lady,

skulking around in ponds, distributing swords,

thinks of us.

No offense.

We are worthy.

We just got to prove it.

A rousing sentiment.

But I am not the one you must convince.

Okay, it's not exactly

how I pictured dying, but what the hell?

What's the plan, MG?

Kaleb, Jed, Wade?

Grab that rope and see if you can slow him down.

Wonder Twins...

...protect the sword.

Wait, what are you gonna do?

Something stupid. Got it.

I don't care what you show me.

I'm not gonna change my...

mind.

Dr. S said she's waiting on you.

If you don't come back, she doesn't come back, Lan.

And you don't want that on your conscience.

I know because I can barely live

with myself knowing that I'm responsible

for you being there.

Giving your being over to me to make yourself

feel less guilty isn't a good enough reason.

Not when I have the chance to save everyone else.

That's not the only reason that I'm doing this.

Now we will get Hope back, whether it's you

doing it yourself...

or you as me.

Who do you think she's gonna want to see

when she wakes up?

It's not working. Not with that attitude.

Just give it everything you've got.

We believe in you, buddy. Right, Kaleb?

What?

Hell yeah. Yeah, yeah,

we believe in you, Wade.

Just put your back into it, all right?

All of us together.

Incendium!

He's immune to fire, so you just pissed him off.

Try immobilus.

That's what I've been saying all day.

Immobilus!

Hold on!

Need a hand?

Need a hundred...

but you'll do.

Your royal highness?

The worthy one has arrived.

Raf has the sword. Everyone get out of his way.

Hey, come on!

Um... please... get up.

Um... I'm guessing this is yours.

No, it is rightfully yours,

as you are a descendant of Arthur.

Do better with it than your ancestors did

and I will never need return.

Bye.

I don't want to say I told you we were worthy, but...

Took you long enough. Where the hell were you?

Landon.

You're here.

For you... always.

Oh, thank God.

I thought you were a water nymph for a second.

Even I'm not that judgmental.

But if I were to do my best impression,

I sucked today.

Sorry for ruining your field day.

Oh, I don't care about field day.

Okay, I care a little bit.

But I care about you way more.

I know.

You always have.

Whether it's the old me or the work-in-progress one.

That means a lot.

Any sign of Alyssa?

I was pretty brutal to her today.

I might even owe her an apology.

She's gone.

But all that means is I have to bring her back.

Well, if anyone can do that, it's you.

The Unifier.

That's what your superhero name should be.

Okay.

My super sense is telling me

you should really check on Jo.

She needs you, Lizzie.

The real you.

Save the spandex.

I'm already one step ahead of you.

Lizzie thinks that I should spend a little time with Mom.

Just me and her.

Kind of like how she did when she was having a hard time.

She just thinks that I should be the focus for a change.

And I don't want you to think that you can't help me,

because I know that all you've been doing lately

is trying to help me.

I think it's...

a good idea.

You know, I spend so much time

trying to control things around here,

that sometimes I'm the one who ends up creating the chaos.

And I have to learn to let go a little.

Does it still smell like a dead body in here?

No.

It smells like Ocean Dusk.

I'm really happy I didn't have to see you that way.

Me, too.

How do you think you knew?

I just did.

It made me want to stay asleep forever.

What made you decide to come back?

I knew you'd kick my ghost ass if I didn't.

Fair.

Me and Rafael made a pledge.

Him and me, every day,

waking up and taking the fight to the bad guys.

So like a super side-squad.

We're gonna get a Bat-Signal so you'll know how to call on us.

I don't think I'm ever gonna get that far away from you again.

Hey, Lan...

Oh.

Um, I'm so sorry. I was...

I'm-a come back. - It's fine.

I was just leaving.

You sure? Yeah.

Bye, Hope.

This better be good. Really, Lan?

You're supposed to kneel...

in the presence of a king.

I thought you loved this place.

Living all that drama is a lot harder

than watching it in a basin. Yeah, preaching to the choir.

So I'm getting out while the getting's good.

I'm gonna try and make something of my life this go-round.

Same.

So, where are you headed?

Back to the Ice Dream Palace.

You know, I'm gonna make manager this time.

Good luck, Chad.

I really hope you do.

Oh, my God!

What the hell is wrong with you?!

Chad's dead.

And we were linked.

So does that mean I'm gonna die?

Again? Your concern is

understandable.

It will be gruesome and quite painful.

You need not fear sharing that fate

if you agree

to give yourself back over to me...

as my eternal acolyte.

What say you, witch?
