/studios/thecw.jpg
The week of October 7 is a busy one as “Supernatural” and “The Tomorrow People” have their fall premieres while “The Vampire Diaries” and “The Originals” air their second episodes of the new season.
Below are the synopses of all four. We’re on the fence with how much coverage to give “The Tomorrow People” so if, after watching a few episodes, it doesn’t seem to fall on the horror side of the fence, we won’t be mentioning it much more.
“The Originals” Episode 1.02 – “House of the Rising Son” (airs 10/8/13, 8-9pm; repeats 10/10/13, 9-10)
A FLASHBACK TO THE 1800s — When Rebekah (Claire Holt) arrives in New Orleans at her brother Elijah’s (Daniel Gillies) insistence, she meets Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin), who gives her some unexpected news. Concerned that her brother Klaus is up to no good, Rebekah seeks help from a reluctant Sophie (Daniella Pineda). At her wits’ end, Hayley takes matters into her own hands, but things quickly take a dangerous turn.
Determined to uncover Marcel’s (Charles Michael Davis) secret weapon, Klaus stays one step ahead and executes his plan.

Finally, Marcel enlists Davina’s (Danielle Campbell) help in his own dangerous plan. Leah Pipes also stars. Brad Turner directed the episode written by Diane Ademu-John and Declan de Barra.
