You have a visitor. Have you seen these two? All his life, there has only ever been one man he has truly feared. He said his name is Mikael. Don't you want to know about your friend Mikael? The vampire who hunts vampires. What do you know about
Mikael? Just that he knows you're here. My father. Mikael. You're Klaus' father. And I'm the only one
who can rid you of him forever. You're bluffing. Katherine and I found him. Klaus and my father
did not get on too well. If he came here, Klaus would flee and never turn back. The way I recall it, he ran you out of town. Our father hunted him, hunted us,
for centuries. For a thousand years... ...I lived in fear. We must leave. Every time we
found a moment of happiness we were forced to flee. Mikael is very nearly upon us. Rebekah! Come on, we've
got to go, sweetheart! Any time I settled anywhere, our father would hunt me down and... Go! We must run. Chase me off. And so I ran. He made me feel powerless. And I hated it. Hello Niklaus. Hello Mikael. Unless you're running from someone. My father. Greetings, boy. My father hunted me for a thousand years and the closest he ever came was the day he killed
my favorite horse. I knew he was the only thing that you feared and I wanted you to run. I am the
only man in history who's been able to drive him off. Fleeing your brute of a father. Always on the
run, living like dogs. Father's always hated you most. You know, my father hated me too. You, who knows
better than anyone the specific agony of a father's hatred. To bring him fear and pain. He severed its neck with a sword. Why did Mikael start hunting Klaus? As a warning. When he killed
for the first time, we knew what he truly was. He's a beast. An abomination. With that he became my father's
greatest shame. He's not my father is he? When Mikael found out, he murdered my real father. Father is beside himself with rage. When I found out that he wasn't really my son, my relief was glorious. I
wonder if your real father would be as embarrassed as I was of you? You need to realise, as I did... before I discovered that you were not mine. ...when I learned his mother had lain with a beast to beget
him, Niklaus is an abomination. Mikael's greatest weakness as a human was his pride. I shall end
him! When your father wants to kill you, he wants to kill you. As a vampire, that was magnified. Nothing you can do about it. Kill the bastard who calls himself my son. It was your bastard brother I hunted. He went on a rampage and killed half the village. Not you. Never you. How can I be anything
but the lesser brother? That's all I am to you, isn't it? So I came here, to give you a chance to help me put
down that whelp for good. You keep saying kill but you're immortal, you can't be killed. Oh but we can. The moment you reveal yourself, you unleash an angry horde. Rumours of Mikael are rampant across Europe. None of whom
can kill me. And my father was the only one with the means to do it. Father can. And given the
chance he will. Well then I'd hate to keep you waiting. The two of you going round and round trying to
kill each other. You do not talk to abominations. You do not reason with them. You're obsessing over the death of someone who's fatal flaw is he was fathered
by another guy! You erase them! After I kill you, I will remain here until every
last person who remembers you is dead. The deeds of the mighty Klaus will be remembered by no one! And you, boy, will simply never have existed. In my experience, fathers cause pain. It remains within us. A story we tell ourselves so we know who we are. I think you've forgotten what he
was truly like. Vicious father. But I think we can both agree the intervening centuries
have turned me into an altogether different beast. Your cruelty- it was nothing- made sure of
that. Bastard son. I of all people know whether the parent raising you loves you or loathes you, they
still form who you are. Klaus may not be your blood but he certainly has picked up a few things from you along the way. Do not mention the bastard son! At first, the promise of an offspring meant little to me. You said you saw my father. Then I recalled my father. How he held me in contempt from the moment
I was born. Why do you call him that? He's not your real dad. He is not my son! He's done damage only a father could do. Find your daughter! And show her how we dole out discipline in this family! I remember the day that father caught you whittling
little chess pieces with his hunting knife. He beat you so mercilessly and for so long He beat me half to death. I actually feared for your life. I used to try to convince Klaus that there was good in everyone. That you really did care about him deep inside once. He told me I was naive. That I could never fathom
how deep your hatred ran. When Niklaus was born, I was overjoyed. I thought, this one has the
eyes of a warrior. He will be worthy. I thought if I could just best him just once he would
see that I'm worthy. But my hope was short-lived. Father says he's to take me hunting later. But I'm no good. If you can't hunt, you're nothing but a burden. If you are determined to prove yourself a
weakling, I should cast you out! He frightens me. He gets angry at me. But he grows more pathetic
every day. Look at you, boy. I'm sorry. It's a shame we can't feed on sad-eyed apologies. You are pathetic. It's your one and only skill You were never the recipient of his cruelty! None of you were, not Kol, not Finn, none of you! Not long after, Niklaus broke the spell which prevented him from
becoming a hybrid, Mikael is dead. He defeated our father. I thought this would make him happy. You should see yourself. The murderous expression, the self-righteous posturing. He was angrier than ever. You look like Father. What has happened to you? I remember the sweet boy who made me
laugh, and gave me gifts. After all this time, I did not make myself this way. How could you have fallen so far? Am I not Mikael's son? ...to whine about how little you were loved? It was Mikael who ruined me. Nobody cares about you anymore, boy! I get it. Your father didn't love you, so you
assume that no one else will either. Is that what this is about? I just need to be rid of you. To what end, Niklaus? You just don't want to be alone? So you can live forever with no one at your side? No, I wasn't born like this. I think I would have liked to have been your son. But a different
path was chosen for me. Yet there was a time when you knew me. As your son! And I have the past 1 000
years been son of Mikael. A time before all the disappointments, the revelations of betrayal. Paranoid, vengeful. There were moments when all you had to do was be my father. And even then, you
despised me didn't you? I want to know why. I don't know . I just did. Betrayal is in your nature. I do have personal
reasons... I didn't always hate him. ...for wanting Niklaus to suffer. Everything that followed
was because of Niklaus' obsession with the wolves. He ventured out to watch them turn and he took my youngest son Henrik. He was torn apart. An accident. An accident? I killed my mother. He murdered my wife! And I
blamed it on my father. His own mother! He made up this entire lie about your father
so that he wouldn't lose you. He blinded you Rebekah. He betrayed me. Killed your mother. You were never the
one I was after. If you were after him, stand with me. You were after me. or fall with him. he turned my entire family against me you stand against me I will always choose him
for him you left me to suffer at the hands of a father who valued only strength could you be
more pathetic get on your feet son [Music] is coming then she is a threat to my child both our daughters will be free care to join
your bastard Son and The Witch Hunt are you ready I was born ready in a thousand
years I've never seen anyone success so you two are friends now absolutely not
we're merely aligned out in necessity for the purpose we both enjoy the most glorious
murder one final hunt together then you made an alliance with him we actually made quite
a team do try to keep up old man I'm just episode we might want to be allies
and drove a stake through his heart and then you killed him Mikael raised you
and I ended him when Mikael is truly gone do you think then I'll find peace? I certainly hope so.
