The CW has released an official description for the twentieth episode of The Originals’ third season, airing on May 6th.
The title of the episode is "Where Nothing Stays Buried” Here’s how they describe it:
KLAUS AND LUCIEN FACE OFF – In the wake of a ruthless plan that has left their family shattered, Klaus (Joseph Morgan), Elijah (Daniel Gillies) and Freya (Riley Voelkel) desperately search for a way to take down Lucien (guest star Andrew Lees) once and for all. However, their efforts are put on hold following an urgent plea for help from Kol (guest star Nathaniel Buzolic) and Marcel (Charles Michael Davis). At Klaus’ insistence, Freya and Elijah reluctantly stay behind to offer their help, while Klaus and Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) head to the bayou after uncovering Lucien’s latest plan. Once there, an unexpected showdown between Klaus and Lucien forces Freya to take matters into her own hands, setting off a chain of events that will change all of their lives forever.

This episode left me in tears. The betrayal in this episode felt so real and i was hoping hoping and hoping Davina would come back while Marcel was crying over her body. I can't believe Freya and Elijah thought this was the only way. Its like they switched places with Klaus who said to find another way.
I liked Klaus and Hayleys relationship lately. They keep it real with eachother and you can tell they have an awesome sense of respect for eachother. The fact he knelt for Lucien showed alot to me. Klaus' curly mess of a hair is the sexiest thing ive seen hahaha lol
Thumbs up for this episode and I am scared they have unleashed their ultimate enemy yet. Marcel. I hope he doesnt take the serum but if he does they are going to be doomed for.

The Originals boss breaks down those shocking deaths
On the heels of Cami’s death in last week’s episode of The Originals, this week saw Marcel and company do everything in their power to resurrect Davina — until Elijah and Freya took matters into their own hands and sacrificed Davina for the purposes of killing Lucien. That decision then resulted in two deaths: Davina and Lucien. So we spoke with showrunner Michael Narducci about the twists and what comes next. ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: We’ll start with the obvious question. In terms of story, why kill Davina? MICHAEL NARDUCCI: We certainly didn’t want to do it. We love the character and we love Danielle [Campbell]. Freya and Elijah realize that the family may suffer more loss if they don’t hijack this power that was meant to bring Davina back and to protect her from the ancestors. It’s just this idea that the choices we make have consequences and thematically, the whole season is about the Mikaelsons will put family first, family above all, always and forever. And that’s not necessarily going to result in justice or fairness or heroic behavior. They do something in this episode that is pretty terrible in order to survive as a family and you have to weigh the consequences, and I hope that the audience asks, “Would I do that? Would I sacrifice a friend for my loved ones, for my family?” We wanted to play with all those things and once we came to that story, we just looked around at each other in the room and said, “This is the best story.” This was the first time I wasn’t sure if I sided with the Mikaelsons on one of those big decisions.It is very much our intention for you to have that conflict, and when the episode is over, we expect our fans to debate within themselves. Interestingly enough, Klaus kind of hates Davina. She is responsible for tearing apart the link between him and his sires and that’s going to have consequences going forward. She’s always been a little bit of a thorn in his side and yet, even he — and I think this is because of Cami’s influence — was reluctant to go that route. Freya just wants to do right by this family. She lost them 1,000 years ago and now she finally has them and she’s going to stop at nothing to make sure that she has her family, which is not to say that she won’t feel regret. But I do think it’s interesting to play with the consequences of what they’ve done — the whole issue of “family above all” being problematic. I did love that it wasn’t Klaus’ call this time. He wanted to find another way.Yeah, he even says at one point, “I don’t want Kol to have to suffer what I have suffered.” When we talked about Cami’s death before, I talked about how she has irrevocably altered Klaus. I’m not saying he’s ever going to be a good guy. But he is changed and maybe a little bit more thoughtful and may want to strive more towards the person that Cami imagined that he was. With Cami and Davina, were you all hesitant to have two big deaths happen so close together?It was absolutely something we were hesitant to go forward with. We debated it. It was just the way these two stories were intersecting and we thought this would be the best version of the story. As we have said in the past, Davina is a special entity. She is a New Orleans witch and we know that those witch souls exist beyond the realm of what we call life. There is an afterlife for witches. Yes, Davina is seemingly gone at the end of episode 20, but there’s still more story to tell with the ancestors. There’s still more story to tell with Kol and Vincent and even Marcel wanting revenge against them. I’d say there’s still more story to tell with Davina. Last week, we spoke about the decision to have Klaus and Cami say “I love you.” In this case, I’m interested in the decision to have Marcel kind of have that great final moment with his daugter-of-sorts.Unlike Cami, Davina thought she was coming back. Cami knew she was dying. For Davina, she expected, right up until Elijah and Freya come in, that they were going to find a way to resurrect her, and in that moment while Kol is out handling the business of procuring Van, she has a quiet moment with this guy who’s taken care of her. He’s feeling overwhelmed with guilt that he couldn’t protect her and she’s saying, “I’m not a kid. You did protect me and you can’t lock me away.” This was a very difficult moment. A few of the other writers have children and everybody in the room was talking about that special connection between a parent and child and how we’ve all had to look at our parents and say, “Hey, we’re grown-ups now. We can handle ourselves.” In releasing Marcel from any guilt, she reminds the audience of their connection. He’s overwhelmed with grief at the end of this episode. And we needed to feel that grief and understand his rage because it will have a massive impact on everything that’s to come. Speaking to that, how will Davina’s death affect things moving forward?There’s a tectonic shift in the alliance between Marcel and the Mikaelsons. Marcel is changed. Throughout this season, [he] has had opportunities to be loyal to the Mikaelsons and opportunities to betray the Mikaelsons — and he’s always come through. And despite that, this is how things have ended for him. He’s just realizing that it’s systemic — this betrayal, this treachery. The Mikaelsons will take care of each other no matter what and he is not someone inside that circle of protection. And just at this moment when he’s looking at them with new eyes, an opportunity has come into play that would change forever the power dynamic. That, to me, is one of the most exciting things about this entire season, the idea of a Marcel who is no longer beholden to Klaus and a second-string power level to Klaus. Marcel has a very difficult choice ahead of him. Okay, maybe this is a dumb question, but I’m so bummed: Is Lucien really dead?!Lucien is dead. But he’s so good!Lucien is incredible! Andrew Lees is incredible. I love Andrew Lees. I loved to hate Lucien. And I think he did such a great job over the course of the season; he kept you on your toes. I understand why Lucien hates Klaus — the spurned lover and just the idea of having to be immortal but always be living in the shadow of your maker. I think that’s a very fascinating motive and drive and I loved hating him. Fortunately, he will exist forever on the DVDs. www.ew.com/article/2016/05/06/the-originals-michael-narducci-shocking-deaths

The Originals: The latest victim looks back at their favorite moments on the show
After an hour-long attempt to resurrect Davina failed, The Originals said goodbye to the young witch we met three years ago. (Whether she’ll be back is another question.) Regardless, EW spoke with star Danielle Campbell about some of her favorite memories from her time playing the teenage witch. On her favorite Davina-Marcel moment: [It’s] one of them when she’s dying. It was season 1 when she sacrificed herself and they were in the train crate and she was telling him that she understands. I thought that moment between the two of them was beautiful. That episode was so fun to film: We had fire, we had rain cranes, we had everything. It was a massive episode. On Davina’s transformation from the pilot: What I’ve loved from playing her is I started the show when I was just 17 so now I’m 21, and I’ve gotten to grow with her. You’ve seen her go through so much and she’s so much stronger now. At the very beginning, she was this scared little girl in the attic and now she’s been a regent, she’s gone through torture, she’s died, she’s come back — she’s just taken on so much. She’s a real leader; she’s strong and she cares about people. And people who are on her side who she trusts, she will do anything for them. She’s always had more power than an average witch. She can handle so much and I thought that was something really cool about her character. On her favorite Davina story to play: Season 2 was a lot of fun because there were a lot of big discoveries for Davina. She became more witty; she was kind of the outcast. You saw her being her own person and that’s when she first met Kol, so that was an interesting introduction. So season 2 for Davina was a big switch and was really fun to play. www.ew.com/article/2016/05/06/the-originals-danielle-campbell-davina-moments

The Originals: Julie Plec bids farewell to (Spoiler)
The Mikaelson family is extremely complicated, and who better to untangle that drama than Julie Plec? The Originals showrunner will blog each week’s installment throughout the season exclusively for EW. From answering burning questions to giving behind-the-scenes stories and more, this is a place for fans to hear directly from Plec about the episode they just watched. Thank you for watching “Where Nothing Stays Buried,” written by Carina MacKenzie and Chris Hollier and directed by John Hyams. It is with great sorrow that we say goodbye to the delightful Andrew Lees. I should add, it is with great vengeful pleasure that we bid adieu to that nasty snake Lucien Castle. But Andy, we will miss. In true Australian form, he showed up in episode one with a terrific attitude and a boatload of talent. Over the course of the season, he charmed all of us and inspired all of the actors to bring their A game. Andy, we love you, but Lucien was a dick. After the murders of first Finn, then Cami (not to mention that creepy way he kept touching Freya’s face), it was high time to send Lucien to meet his maker. Watching Game of Thrones the other night, I wished we could have sent Lucien into Ramsay Bolton’s dog pen. May your Rest not be Peaceful, Lucien Castle. During the fight scene between Lucien and Klaus, things got a little too real: Joseph [Morgan] accidentally elbowed Andrew in the nose sending him to the hospital for three hours to make sure it wasn’t broken. Andrew returned and shot another seven hours once back on set. Andrew was asked about stunt work and said it was nothing after his first acting gig… He was in a commercial for extreme vacationing in which he flew around the world doing crazy stuff. His first day he was shoved off a huge bridge in a chair and nearly passed out. On the same job an engine caught fire on the plane he was in and had to make a landing on a runway filled with fire engines. The vicious car wreck you see was all movie magic. The two vehicles never touched. In fact, the SUV Klaus was driving was destroyed with two forklifts repeatedly hitting it for about 90 minutes. In the “death” scenes for Davina: Danielle [Campbell] and Charles [Michael Davis] kept actually crying in between takes knowing these would be the last scenes they’d have together on the show. www.ew.com/article/2016/05/06/originals-julie-plec-blog-where-nothing-stays-buried
