The Originals 2x05 official synopsis: "Red Door"

Contains spoilers!

The CW have released the official synopsis for episode 5 of The Originals titled ‘Red Door’. All I can say is well it’s finally here TVD and Original fans, we are finally going to see the original Pertova doppelgänger, Tatia. Well we’re going to have to wait till episode five, and hopefully they might be some episode stills before the episode airs but we will see who Klaus and Elijah fought for all those decades ago.

You might remember Tatia’s name being mentioned way back in season three of The Vampire Diaries, when Klaus and Elijah told Stefan and Damon the unfortunate fate Tatia had held upon her, when the two original brothers fell in love with her only for mama original to use Tatia to seal the hybrid curse upon Klaus.

Now the appearance of Tatia will not shock any of you, as we all know Nina Dobrev plays all the doppelgängers, so yep you guessed it, Nina will be guest starring on The Originals to play the original doppelgänger. 

So let’s get to the synopsis...

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES’ NINA DOBREV APPEARS IN FLASHBACKS AS TATIA, THE ORIGINAL DOPPELGANGER — In order to show Elijah (Daniel Gillies) that her plan is what’s best for him, Esther forces him to relive a time long ago when he loved a young woman named Tatia (guest star Nina Dobrev). With the help of Marcel (Charles Michael Davis), Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) is determined to find Elijah, who has gone missing, but is torn when she discovers that Klaus (Joseph Morgan) is also in trouble. Elsewhere, Cami (Leah Pipes) finds herself in a dangerous situation when Mikael (guest star Sebastian Roche) takes her hostage as a way to lure Klaus to him, and Davina (Danielle Campbell) makes an upsetting discovery about Kaleb’s (guest star Daniel Sharman) true identity. Lastly, a violent confrontation ensues when Klaus comes face-to-face with Mikael. Michael Robison directed the episode written by Declan de Barra & Diane Ademu-John (#205).
