We’ve been holding off posting the synopses of The CW’s genre shows for the week of May 9th because they’ve been keeping the season finale of “The Vampire Diaries” under wraps, but now the cat’s out of the bag, and along with the synopses of “TVD” Episode 7.22, “Gods & Monsters,” we also have a look at what’s ahead on “Containment,” “Supernatural,” and “The Originals.”

Nothing really stands out except things aren’t looking good for Castiel, that’s for sure!

LIES AND MORE LIES — As the situation inside the cordon grows more dire, Lex’s (David Gyasi) frustration builds as he becomes increasingly conflicted by the messages of false hope he’s being forced to send to the public.  When Jana (Christina Moses) suspects something is off with Lex’s demeanor, she realizes the situation may be more serious than the government is letting on and devises a plan to reach Lex directly.  At the hospital, Dr. Cannerts (George Young) continues working towards finding an antidote, while Jake (Chris Wood) helps Katie (Kristen Gutoskie) cope with some personal issues.  Elsewhere, Leo (Trevor St. John) becomes concerned for his friends inside the cordon and turns to an unlikely ally to help him.  Finally, a turn of events at the grocery mart leaves Teresa (Hanna Mangan Lawrence) and her mother in a terrifying position.  Chris Grismer directed the episode written by Michael Jones-Morales.
