Home TV Recaps The Originals season 2, episode 13 recap: Mending fences
Trust is a funny idea in the Mikaelson family. See which bonds are repaired, and which might be cut forever in our recap of The Originals season 2, episode 13.
The episode begins with Finn trying to locate Hope via a locator spell with zero luck, especially when the maps all catch fire. Whoops. Freya shows up and reveals herself to him, and he seems to think its too good to be true.
Rebekah does as she was told, and lets Klaus and Elijah know about Freyas existence. Klaus is a little taken aback by the news, and wants to know if Rebekah happened to learn whether Dahlia is also set to return now that Freya is actually alive. Rebekah has nothing to report on that front.
Hayley is a little miffed about why people are leaving brooms on the porch where she and Jackson are staying. He tells her that its a tradition, in which the pack gives the couple permission to jump the broom and consummate the marriage before the actual ceremony. Hayley is a little slow on the uptake, but as soon as she sees what Jackson is referring to, she gets understandably flustered. Jackson then shows her the crib he began building for baby Hope before they learned of her death. Now that shes alive and well, he is determined to finish it.
We also learn that packs from further away are wishing to bend the knee and acknowledge Jackson as their Alpha in order to get in on the perks of this supernatural wedding. Jackson remarks that Hayley is going to have one hell of an army to protect her little girl when this marriage is all said and done.
Klaus finds out from Aiden that Vincent (Finn) has Marcel, and Kol shows up to tell them about the curse that Vincent has put on him. Klaus is hesitant to believe him, what with all the backstabbing and games that Kols been playing lately, but when Rebekah insists hes telling the truth, Klaus listens.
As Elijah is trying to fix a little breakfast, Hope pulls on a cloth and yanks a knick-knack down onto her head. A cut and a little blood send Elijah back to visions of the Red Door, but Cami snaps him out of it.
Back at the Mikaelson compound in the city, Kol is having trouble with a spell to locate Finn and Marcel. Klaus suggests a stronger witch, but Kol is reluctant to let Davina know about the death curse hovering over his head. Klaus asks Kol if he can remember the spell Finn used to trap him in his current body, so that they can use Finns own idea against him. Kol cant remember, so Klaus intimidatingly suggests that he pluck it out of Kols mind. Kol is NOT happy about it. As soon as Klaus starts digging around in there, he finds out that Kol was trying to create a dagger to put Klaus out of commission. Klaus not happy.

PanARMENIAN.Net - Pablo Picassos former electrician and his wife have gone on trial in Paris accused of having stolen 271 pieces of the artists work, The Irish Times reports.
Pierre Le Guennec and his wife, Danielle claim that the artist, or his wife, gave them the 180 lithographs, collages and paintings and 91 drawings around 1970 when Le Guennec began working as a general handyman at Picassos estate.
The cache has an estimated value of 80 million.
The Picasso estate rejects this account which it describes as ridiculous and is suing them for illegal possession of the works
Mr Le Guennec kept the art works in a garage for decades. Produced between 1900 and 1932, the works have never been displayed publicly.
The Le Guennecs face up to five years in prison and a 375,000 if convicted for concealing stolen goods.
The three-day trial is likely to be complicated by the fact that some potential witnesses have died in the interim. The prosecutors case against the couple
does not mention who may have stolen the art.
About five years ago, Mr Le Guennec began worrying about what might come of the works after his death, according to his lawyer.

Pablo Picassos former electrician charged with stealing art worth 80mln
By LIONEL CIRONNEAU and JAMEY KEATEN Associated Press
GRASSE, France (AP) - Would Pablo Picasso have donated 271 works to an electrician who worked for him for a few years in southeast France?
A French court began to contemplate that question on Tuesday at the start of a three-day trial of Pierre Le Guennec and his wife, Danielle.
They claim that the artist, or his wife, gave them the 180 lithographs, collages and paintings and 91 sketchbook drawings around 1970 when Le Guennec began working as a general handyman for Picasso in his homes on or near the French Riviera.
Heirs of Picasso and a state prosecutor describe the couple's account as ridiculous. They argue that the master had a habit of autographing and signing works that he gave away, and had never given away such a massive trove. One Picasso family lawyer says the estimated worth is 60 million to 100 million euros ($68-113 million).
Le Guennec quietly kept the works in a garage for decades. Produced between 1900 and 1932, they have never been displayed publicly. If convicted for concealing stolen goods, the Le Guennecs could face up to five years in prison and fines of 375,000 euros ($424,000) or more - up to half the value of the loot.
Picasso, who died in 1973, left no will. But he did leave behind at least 70,000 works that have over the years been the subject of theft, forgery, legal disputes and secret sales. In recent weeks, news reports have emerged about efforts by his granddaughter, Marina Picasso, to quietly sell some of the works that she inherited, in part to purge painful family memories.
But an unknown trove like the Le Guennecs' is extraordinary.
The trial was shaping up largely as a case of "he said, she said" because some potential witnesses have died, hard evidence of theft 40 years ago may be hard to come by, and even the state's own case doesn't mention who may have stolen it.
Tuesday's session was devoted to questioning the two defendants and projections of the works - with cameras barred from the courtroom. Son Claude Picasso, the estate's administrator, was on hand.

GRASSE, France - When Pablo Picasso died in 1973, he left behind no will and a trove of an estimated 70,000 works of art. In the decades since, that collection has been the subject of numerous thefts, forgeries, courtroom dramas and secretive sales. Complicating matters is the tangled legacy of his gifts to his four children and eight grandchildren, as well as numerous wives and muses and hangers-on.
On the legal art market, his pieces still rake in millions of dollars every year, and two recent developments could shake up the international race to own a piece of the famed Spanish artist.
Marina Picasso, a granddaughter of the artist, is reportedly aggressively selling off some of her 10,000-piece collection of his art.
She has allegedly already begun privately shopping seven of the works, valued at $290 million, reports Page Six.
While Marina Picasso has denied she has decided exactly how many artworks she will sell, she did tell The New York Times: "It's better for me to sell my works and preserve the money to redistribute to humanitarian causes."
Speculation has intensified among collectors that she could flood the market and depress prices, The New York Times reports.
In her memoir, Marina Picasso wrote about an upbringing in which her grandfather, "drove everyone who got near him to despair and engulfed them."
Marina Picasso is the daughter of Picasso's son Paulo, and "she has long kept her distance from the rest of the family," the New York Times reports.
In addition to the questions over Marina Picasso's collection, a courtroom in France is now also asking whether Pablo Picasso would have donated 271 works to an electrician who worked for him for a few years in southeast France.
