I partially agree with you: Rebekah and Elijah had no reason to believe that Klaus didn't want to make other hybrids, but it's also true that Klaus doesn't want to be the father that Mikael was for him (and he had already demonstrated it with Marcel) and this Elijha and Rebekah should have known. At the same time, Klaus has done nothing but betray them, so it's understandable that they didn't trust him with the little girl either. I understand the two brothers, but something breaks me every time I see the final scene, Joseph Morgan is very good.
I like the fact that Klaus continues to refer to himself as a bastard, more than anything else it's a historically correct element. For Elijha and Rebekah it is easy to say that it makes no difference to them because they love him, but Klaus was still born in the 10th century. from a Viking father. Having a bastard child was an attack on the cuckolded husband's virility, because he was not "man enough to satisfy or manage his wife." Furthermore, for the Vikings, bastard children were not part of the "sippa", or the community, and were devoid of any social or legal weight (you were basically on a par with serfs). Furthermore, there were beliefs, especially at a popular level, that bastards were somehow traitors or unworthy by nature. Obviously Klaus rationally doesn't believe in these things (after all, he is an extremely intelligent and cultured man), but that doesn't mean that psychologically he hasn't been influenced by them.
In rewatching S1 I definately have a different view of Klaus than I did back then. They have explored his character so well so far (I am up to S3E2) that I understand him so much more and am not so quick to think of him as being 'evil' lol. I definately do still think that it was a matter of actions speak louder than words when it came to Rebekah and Elijah not trusting him, as he been the definition of untrustworthy with them in the past, but its also very eye opening to see just how much their thoughts of him hurt.
Also thank you for a breakdown on the term 'bastard' as its often easy to forget that they were born and grew up in a completely different time where language had so many different meanings.
Where’s the proof Klaus knew he could make hybrids from his baby’s blood.
His family BETRAYED HIM FIRST
@@johnwalkeristhatdude3018they betrayed him multiple times and blame him for being paranoid towards him
@@donobedabest8446they watched Esther and Mikael take away his wolf side something he was born as. They made him a monster they violently took his wolf side in order for Klaus to get it back his mother made sure he did something violent to get it back. Elijah helped them bind him he was too much for Esther and Mikael to hold down. His siblings were there and they did nothing to stop it
I love this episode cuz Klaus look so DEFEATED when he puts two original vampires and normal vampires in their place
This episode is just fantastic. Easily my top 5 of the whole show. It has and does so much. I think it broke the internet when it first aired 😂.
The fight between Klaus and the vampires shows you why the whole season is the way it is. Why Klaus chose to play the elaborate chess game of getting into Marcel's inner circle and planting spies and the whole political war. It shows you that even though he's doing that, if he's forced into a corner. He'll just kill everyone and take the city anyway. It's one of the few instances when we see the full might of the original hybrid. But It's because he knows that he can't win that way and he can't gain the respect of the people (well vampires ykwim) that he does what he does.
And the speech at the end to his siblings was oddly emotional, it shows that no matter how much Klaus tries to change, he can't do it because he doesn't believe that he can. He thinks it wouldn't matter. He tells himself that after everything, he can never have loyalty or love, so he lives in constant paranoia of betrayal and in that paranoia he does things to bring about that betrayal, like a self fulfilling prophecy. And the acting by Joseph Morgan is just.. [chef's kiss]
The fight was SO GOOD, the way it looks like he is actually struggling after they chain him up, only for him to just tear them to pieces 😭 and hard agree about the speech at the end, had to cut a lot of it for time/copyright which is annoying but it was painful to see someone so confused and hurt about why they turned on him.
The opinion about the bastard has already been explained. I also think that this is a really sore spot for Klaus, and even if his siblings don’t think that way about him, it’s enough that he thinks and attributes it to them too.
But I don’t remember Klaus from TVD caring at all. He didn't want to be alone there, but it was more about his hybridity. Maybe a bastard was meant. It seems to me that the characters of all the Originals were slightly changed or rolled back from what they had in TVD. Like Marcel says something about loyalty. The two witches with whom Klaus came to MF were loyal to him. Yes, they were with him for knowledge and other things. But they worshiped him. It was also implied that he also had vampires, witches loyal to him. And at the time when they had Katerina. They had a castle and vampires who served it. Yes, Trevor betrayed for the sake of a skirt. It seemed that there were many more vampires, and that Trevor was an exception.
Hah. Looking back on Season 3 and TVD, Elijah and Rebekah greatly influenced Klaus's views on love, trust, and lovers. Of course, in a positive scenario, Klaus himself had to overcome it before, understand that not everyone is like that, but his enemies are not asleep. I think they had a lot more betrayals over the centuries, which only strengthened Klaus’s impression that there were enemies all around and no one should be trusted. After all, he was right to suspect Camilla's drawing. He was right that Marcel was up to something. And Rebecca. And Elijah had "stolen" his child in the past. Oops, haven't got to this episode yet.
I like the couple Elijah and Hayley, but it’s strange to me that they started to feel something for each other so quickly. Hello. They didn't just meet in a supermarket. Elijah, Hayley slept with your brother and is carrying your niece. Hayley, this is the brother of the father your child. Plus, Rebecca fell in love with her brother's adopted son, whom she helped raise. It's weirdly vampiric keep in the family.
Elijah helped his abusive parents abuse Klaus the brother he so call loves where do they do that at
I’m sorry but klaus made was right , the only difference between him and his siblings as that he can end the fights they my directly or indirectly start .
Don’t worry, Klaus gets better. It would be terrible writing if they gave us five seasons surrounding him and his family and he had no character growth. I think you’ll come around and start to like Klaus by end of season 1 at the earliest, probably season 2 or 3 though.
This couldn't have been more accurate hehehe. I am up to S3E2 now (on patreon, I am very behind on TH-cam but working on it!) and I like him SO much more. Its jarring going back and editing these episodes cause my god, I really hated this man 😂 I think Hope really did change his view of the world and made him SO much more lovable as a character, for me at least.
@@HarryAllen9they betray him so often and then blame him for being paranoid. They are TRULY no better than him. In some respects they are worse!!
