HOPE:
Invisique saeclum.

Hope?

Landon?

MG had the ascendant
this whole time.

I used it to come find you.
I knew you were alive.

I could just feel it.

I don't understand.

There's nothing there.

What? What do you
want me to see?

Just say it.

(choking)

Landon?

(coughing)

(gate creaking open)

(growling)

Hold on, okay?
I'm gonna get us out of here.

Ventus.

CLEO (echoing):
Hope?

Hope? Hope!

(rumbling)

Hope, stop!

(rumbling quiets)

(gasps softly)

Sorry.

I guess I was dreaming.

About murdering me
with a tornado?

No. I think Landon was trying
to send me a message,

but something wouldn't let him.

What sort of message?

That he's alive.

♪ ♪

ALARIC: Gates are
a common symbol in dreams.

They represent
thresholds in life.

An open gate
signifies

an entry point
into a new beginning,

while a closed
gate usually means

there's something
holding you back.

I keep telling you,
this was more than a dream.

It felt real,
like a vision.

I don't know.

Moving on is not the answer.

Finding Landon is.

Which I would have
done sooner

if MG hadn't been hiding
this thing the whole time.

(sighs) I agree.

He should've been
more honest with us.

I also understand why he wasn't.

Prison world is

crawling with monsters,

and if our leprechaun
friend is any indication,

more might be coming for this.

The ascendant

is a key.

Malivore's way out.

And my way in.
Ah.

Not until we have

credible proof
that Landon is still alive.

Sometimes a dream
is just a dream, Hope,

no matter how
real it feels.

I can't let you and
everyone else go risk their life

based on a gut feeling.

Fine. Have it your way.

Where are you going?

To get your damn proof.

Hey. Is this seat taken?

Okay. Guess so.

Boys.

Nice to see some
friendly faces.

Seriously, Jed?

After what you did, you're
gonna dis me like this?

Look, dude,
you're an even bigger pariah

around here than I am.

So as much as
I appreciate

you taking the heat off me,
I-I can't.

You coming?

(chuckles)

Sorry, MG, but, uh,

what you did to Hope
and my boy Landon was messed-up.

Yo, Kaleb.

Need, uh, a hand with
whatever this is?

(chuckles) It's salt.

Doc's going full Pokémon
since that leprechaun showed up.

And now he's got me setting up
monster traps all around campus

to try to catch the next one
when it shows up, so...
Right.

Whoa.

Sounds like a job
for two vampires.

Or a job for one vampire
and one witch.

I asked Cleo to help.

So I guess everyone's
just pissed at me.

Can you blame 'em?

I mean, what
you did--

total dick move.

Agree to disagree.

But either way, I thought
you'd still have my back.

How the hell am I
supposed to do that

with you being
all two-faced, MG?

CLEO: I will say one thing
about this school.

It has an abundance
of candles.

(both chuckle)

You ready to go, Kaleb,
or do you two need a moment?

Um... nah.

Nah, uh... we're done for now.

LIZZIE:
I understand why you want
to go charging into Mordor,

but we don't even know
if Frodo is still alive.

If you don't want to be
a part of the Fellowship,

there's the door.

I promised my dad
that I would help you

and be your supernatural
fact-checker,

but I want you to manage
your expectations, Hope.

I know you, and
you'll keep looking

whether we find proof or not.

I'll burn that bridge
once I come to it.

That's what I'm afraid of.

Afraid of what, exactly?

None of your business.
Aren't you late for class?

Uh, I was just looking
for my chemistry textbook.

Could've swore
I left it here, so...

Oh, yeah, in Landon's room.
Nice try, Nosey Josie.

Fine. I heard about
the ascendant.

You're clearly
doing a spell.

And if it's about Landon,
I mean, I can help.

Mm-hmm.

That was rude.
I'll say.

My sister's supposed to be
all about that Muggle life,

not snooping around
witchy stuff.

And the last time

that she "helped,"
she shattered the Sandclock,

became Darth Pigtails

and damn near burned
down this school,

so ixnay on the magic talk
around her.

Works for me.

I have a feeling
dealing with one Saltzman sister

is gonna be hard enough today.

That's the spirit.

Now let's get this over with.

CLEO:

L'agbara ina yi, o le loh.

L'agbara ina yi, o le loh.

(chuckles)
Yo, that was hot.

(scoffs) You must say that
to all the witches.

(both chuckle)

It is done.

If a monster enters this space,
it will be unable to leave it.

Or any of the others
we have consecrated.

Cool.

In that case, uh,
pull up a cushion.

Can get to know each other a
little better while we wait.

There is something
I would like to know.

All right.

What was going on
between you and MG earlier?

It's a Super Squad thing,
a'ight?

You wouldn't understand
'cause you ain't Squad.

But I do know what it feels like
to be at odds with a friend.

Hope remains upset with me for
what I did to that leprechaun,

and I am at a loss
how to fix it.

Yeah, I hear that.

MG... he's the homey, you know?

I swore I'd always
have his back.

Then he made me vow to never
give up on Landon, which is

before the truth about him
hiding the ascendant came out.

Now that it has...

It seems you cannot keep one vow
without breaking the other.

Boom.

So... unless there's some
third option I'm not seeing,

I'm-a just stay Switzerland
till I can figure something out.

I have an idea.

LIZZIE:
Well, at least
one thing is clear.

You certainly put the "ass"
in "astral projection."

If Landon had left
you a message,

why haven't MG
or I seen it

on any of our
recon missions?

That's what we're here
trying to figure out,

so maybe try helping.

You know, you're
not the only one

who lost a boyfriend
in a tragic prison world mishap.

So you want
to compare losses now?

I guarantee you
that's not a fair fight.

We're comparing blind spots,

and you definitely
have one for Landon.

Just like I had
one for Sebastian.

I couldn't see things clearly
like everyone else.

I was in so deep.

That's it.

You've astral projected
here before.

So you can tell me
the things that I'm not seeing.

Anything that's changed.

I'm telling you, there
is nothing diff...

Wait.

This is new.

It looks like
a note or...

A message.

But it's not
there anymore.

Maybe a gargoyle
ate it?

(wind whistling)

Or the wind blew it away.

I mean, that thing
could be anywhere.

Not really.

Every day in a prison world
is the same day, right?

Which means the wind
always does the same thing.

Look.

(wind whistling)

See?

Helpful.

"To whom

it may concern..."

LIZZIE:
That's super impersonal.

That doesn't sound
like Landon to me.

Would you get down here

and help me
read the next line?

"My name is Landon Kirby."

I knew it.

Lizzie, he's alive.
This is proof.

Then let's get home
so I can give you a tissue.

Maybe even a hug.

♪ ♪

(breath echoes)

(gasp echoes)

Okay, now that we have proof
Landon's alive,

and we have the ascendant
at our disposal,

we're going after him.

Sorry I'm late.

Would have helped if someone
told me there was gonna be

a Super Squad meeting.

Luckily for us, there's a
planetary transit tonight,

which we can use to
power the ascendant.

Hold on, you guys are going
to the prison world?

Dr. Saltzman,
that's way too risky.

We need more time.
HOPE: Well, if you
hadn't been lying to us

this whole time, we might have
had more time to prepare.

ALARIC:
Everyone, relax.

MG's right.
It's not ideal.

When's the next
celestial event?

HOPE:
Not for another month.

If you think I'm waiting
that long, think again.

JED:
Where do you think
Landon is, exactly?

We don't know.

Once we are
physically in the prison world,

then we can do
a locator spell.

WADE:
In a world
with hungry monsters

trying to tear us
limb from limb,

I probably look like
a hot dog to them.

ALARIC:
I agree with all of you,
for a change.

Which is why this
incredibly dangerous mission

has to be conducted on a
purely voluntary basis.

MG, I think we know
where you stand.

HOPE:
Enough talk.

Who's with me?

You know I'm not.

So please, at least let me
try to explain why.

I get that you're pissed.

And I apologize

for breaking your trust.

But you also know me,

and you know there's nothing
I wouldn't do

for you

or anyone at this school,
even Jed.

So why do you think

I've been lying this whole time?

Lizzie and I astral
projected into this world.

I've seen its horrors
with my own eyes.

If we open a
door to it,

we could be marching right
into one of Malivore's traps.

Or worse, giving him
exactly what he wants.

A way into our world.
HOPE: What Malivore wants

is Landon.

Always has, always will.

Which is why we need
a better plan.

Otherwise, we will be trading
a life of someone here for him.

Why do you think
we all fought

so hard to lock Malivore away
in the first place, Hope?

We can't screw that up.

And if Landon were here, I'm
sure that he'd agree with me.

Well, he's not. And
if you were trapped,

he'd risk his life
to save you.

That goes for any of you.

MG:
I'm not saying

we shouldn't go after Landon.

We just have to be
smart about it.

And what you're talking
about right now,

it's not smart.

It's desperate.

I know I'm not the leader
of the Super Squad,

but I did lead
the fight

that saved this school
from Triad.

And it's my plan
that put Malivore

where he's at right now.

I'm no coward.

So who's with me?

♪ ♪

Then, um...

...I guess you were right,
Dr. Saltzman.

Uh, I don't need to be here.

KALEB:
A psycho what?

A psychopomp.

Creatures capable of
traversing dimensional planes.

You hate my idea.

No, not at all.

I'm just... very impressed.

For someone
who didn't know anything

about this stuff before
you got here, you're a...

you're a quick study.

What you got?

Meet Charon,
the ferryman of Greek myth.

Pay his bounty,

and he will carry your soul
across the River Styx.

He sounds dope, if you're dead.

We're trying to bring
Landon back alive.

Perhaps we can,
for the right price.

Just not how the portal
or the Malivore monsters work.

You can't just go ordering up
any creature you want

like it's takeout.

Have you tried?

Then how can you be certain?

Surely there are
spells which exist

to summon
what you consider monsters.

Yeah, that's black magic.

And while that
would absolutely be

an amazing name for our band,

it's not really
how we do it around here.

In my belief,
magic is neither good or bad.

Its alignment,
positive or negative,

is set off by the
user's intention.

So I guess that's
how you intend to help me

with my vows--
plural-- to MG.

And remind Hope
that my intentions towards her

have always been good.

I'm still not convinced
MG's were.

I understand you are angry
with your friend,

but saving Landon
will require action.

You cannot be
Switzerland forever.

Um, speaking of action,

Super Squad meeting
started about ten minutes ago,

so I got to...

(sighs) I'll think on it.

I promise.

ALARIC:
Malivore's not the only threat

we need to worry about.

Let's not forget,
The Necromancer is trapped

inside the prison world as well,

and he is notorious
for holding a grudge.

I wish we had more time,

but these planets aren't
gonna wait for us, so if we're

gonna do this, we need to
get prepared immediately.

Which means you all need
to make the decision

that's right for you.

Sorry I'm late.

I miss anything important?
No, you're just in time.

Are you coming with us
to the prison world

to save Landon or not?
Uh...

Where's MG?
ALARIC:
He's not joining us,

here or there.

So, if I go, I'm just
doing him dirty like he did us.

And if I stay, I'm still
screwing him over.

And Landon.
Sounds like a no.

Moving on. Wade?

Well, as a general rule,

I tend to avoid
situations

that will probably lead
to my untimely demise,

but Gaby and I

really need a DM
for our next campaign,

and-and Landon's the only one
that's any good at it.

S-So, yeah, I'm-I'm Team Hope.

Let's go get our boy.

JED:
The pack's a lot smaller
these days,

but I'll rally all the wolves
I've got left.

As long as the witches
stop spelling

scarlet letters onto my shirts.

Wow.

I think that
can be arranged.

Elizabeth?

LIZZIE:
It's risky for sure,

and if I need to make a decision
right here, right now...

...I'm with MG.
HOPE: What?

N-No. You're the only
Gemini witch we have.

If you don't activate
the ascendant,

then this whole thing
falls apart.

Maybe it should.

You know,
maybe he's right.

I'm sorry, Hope.

We'll find
another way.

(school bell ringing)

(both laugh)

Um, some people go mini-golfing
on their first official date.

Please tell me
you're not one of those people.

Earth to Jo.

Are you in there?
Yeah.

Sorry. I was just thinking about

how your disdain for my favorite
sport makes us incompatible.

Yeah, I'm seeing that.

Because the only
thing we can agree on

is that we want
to go on a date.

So how about a ditch date?

You mean, like, right now?

Listen, headmaster's daughter,
I know it goes against

that color-coordinated
headband and all,

but take a walk on the
wild side for a change.

I'm warning you,
I can be pretty wild.

Mmm. And pretty cute when you're
thinking about being wild.

So why are we still here?

HOPE:
Josie?

Who's this five
feet of trouble?

JOSIE:
Hope, it's weird
to see you here.

What do you need?

That help you offered me
this morning.

♪ ♪

I've been looking
for you everywhere.

In hindsight, I probably
should've started here first,

but I thought Dr. Saltzman
would've hid you better.

(grunts)
LIZZIE:
Keep playing with that thing

and you'll burn your hand off.

I spelled it myself

to stop Hope from doing exactly
what you were about to do.

Wh-- Polish the ascendant?

All right, fine, I-I was
definitely gonna steal it.

But we both know that
Hope will never quit

until she gets what she wants.

And I don't want her or anyone
else to get hurt because of it.

So if you're here to stop me...

As much as I want to know
how that sentence ends,

I'm actually here to help you.

And if you hadn't moped
off from that meeting,

you'd know that
I stuck up for you.

Seriously?

I know.

(whispers):
It was pretty epic.

Then all we got to do is keep
this thing out of Hope's hands

until the celestial event
is over.

LIZZIE:
You think siding with MG
was the wrong decision,

and now you're mad at
me, so you should just

cut the Copernicus
and say it.

I am not mad at you.

I just don't know
what the right call is.

I wish there was some other way,
one that wasn't so risky.

I just... (sighs)
I can't see it.

You can't find another
astrological event?

Hope is right.

If we don't get
Landon tonight,

we have to wait another month.

Well, if he's
survived past

his expiration date this long,

then maybe he can
last another 30 days.

He's like Cheez Whiz.

And what if he doesn't?

We almost lost this school

because everyone's parents

were afraid that
if they send their kids back,

they'd be forced
to fight monsters.

Is that really why you chose MG?

Partially.

He's always
had my back,

even when I didn't choose him

or deserve it.

The least I could do was
return the favor for once.

Well, I suppose
we all have our blind spots

when it comes
to the people we love.

(phone vibrating)

Dorian, what's up?

Josie did what?

With who?

When?

No.

Thanks for the heads-up.

That didn't sound good.

Worse.

I know Lizzie was just trying
to protect me this morning,

but I'm glad
she came around.

Where is she?

Currently, probably pissed at me

for going behind her back
and dragging you into this,

even after she explicitly
told me not to.

So you lied about Lizzie coming
and now Finch is mad at me, too?

I mean, I didn't really
have a choice.

Lizzie bailed on me

and you're the only other
Gemini witch I know.

Yeah, in theory. Except I don't
have my magic and you know that.

Which sucks,

because a love potion
is about the only way

that Finch is ever
gonna talk to me again.

What if I could fix it?

I mean, not you

your magic.

If you take it back,
we can save Landon.

KALEB:

No, look, look,

more answers, right?

This one does more than that.

In theory.

But it will
not accept money

in exchange for Landon's soul,
as we expected,

so we are in need
of your expertise.

Well, I'm a little rusty
when it comes

to psychopomps, but I think
I know what it wants.

Go get some of Landon's
personal items.

It'll need some of those to
identify his soul or whatever.

Nerd stuff. Copy that.
We're on it.

Oh, and, uh, Cleo?

Next time you want
to summon a monster,

just ask for permission
first, okay?

And now it's infecting you.

What do we do?
JOSIE:
Sever the connection.

Let go.
I can't!

Hold on. We can do this.
We just have to push through.

No, Hope, you could die! Let go!
No!

I'm not abandoning him again.

Josie!

I'm so sorry.

Landon?

Long time, no see.

Am I dead or is this...

another dream?

LIZZIE:
No, I'm pretty sure Landon
made it back here somehow.

Because we totally
see him, too.

Our grandad also
used to say,

"It's Old Bay all the way."

Are we celebrating,
then?

Super Squad pulled out
a big win.

Landon's home.

Thanks to you.

(gasps) Does that make me

an official member
of your Squad?

(chuckles)
Put it to you like this.

It's definitely on the agenda
for our next meeting.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Hmm?

Wow.

(laughs)

I was definitely
on the sidelines

before you put me
back in the game.

Which is ironic,
because I gave MG so much grief

about his actions
having consequences.

But not taking any does, too.

So...

no more Switzerland for me.

(laughs)

Have you patched
things up

with MG yet?
I'm next in line.

Apparently,
something serious went down

between him and Lizzie
last night.

Super dangerous,
and it is

the last time that I am
doing anything for her.

Then why'd you betray me?

Because...

Josie was in trouble.

And it's like
you said.

She's...

the only person on the planet
that I would betray anyone for.

Especially you.

You know that, right?

What I know

is that people
used to listen to me.

Maybe not all the time,

And that's
what made the rest okay.

But if that's
no longer the case,

Come on.

I'll give you
a ride to school.

HOPE:
So what do you remember?

LANDON:
I remember us.

The last night we were together.

How perfect it was.

Until you dissolved
into a puddle of mud,

which I hardly
take as a compliment.

Then what happened?

Darkness.

After that...

(chuckles)

...darkness is the only
thing I can remember.

Makes you feel any better,
I know what Malivore is like.

Being so lonely, it's...

physically painful.

Deep down, I must've known
you were looking for me.

I'm guessing that's what made me
find my way back to you.

Technically,
we have Cleo to thank for that.

We should probably get her
a fruit basket or something.

(chuckles)
She's the new girl?

And my roommate.

It was going great until we got
in this big fight. (chuckles)

I'll probably be spending more
time in your room from now on.

Mm, as long as
we keep it PG-13.

What was your fight about?

When I was struggling,
while you were gone,

she kept pushing me
to find a way to move on.

And then she killed
the one thing

that I thought
might help me find you.

A leprechaun.

Oh, okay.
Long story.

Anyway, doesn't matter.

'Cause I needed this.

Just being
in your arms.

But?

I may have pissed off
a lot of people in the process.

I guess it runs
in the family.

When I was little,
my mom

was taken by
a group of vampires,

and my dad had to go to...
extreme lengths to get her back.

Things were never the same
after what he did.

Sounds like risking everything
for the people you love

is a classic Mikaelson move.

Always has been.

Forever will be.

You'll never have
to go through that again.

I promise.

Gonna hold you to that.

Now kiss me.
