Previously on "The Secret Circle..."
Each one of your families has its own crystal.
And they'll be enough to stop Eben
and the witch hunters?
Your circle, together with
the power of 6 crystals,
will destroy them once and for all.
You aren't the only child of John Blackwell
in the circle. What?
It's you.
You're my sister.
Everything all right, John?
You look a little pale.
Jane, what did you do to me?
You're making a mistake, Charles.
You don't really want to do this.
Send you to hell?
Jane.
Aah!
It's horrible, just awful.
It's so awful.
I don't know how Cassie's keeping it together.
She's tough.
Come on.
Thanks for coming.
Of course.
You ok?
Sure. You're the one dealing with a tragedy.
I'm so sorry about Jane.
Thanks.
But I know you're dealing with a lot, too.
You mean like maybe being a spawn of Blackwell?
Who knows if it's even true.
I still need to talk to my real dad.
Well, have you said anything to the others?
No. And I'm not going to
until I'm sure there's anything to say.
Diana, you've always treated me like family.
And I know that things are really confusing
for you right now,
but if it turns out that you are my sister,
Hey.
Is it true? Witch hunters did it?
That's what Blackwell said.
We can't just sit here and let them
get away with this.
And we won't.
But right now, there are sad, fragile,
old people here.
Let's not give them a heart attack with angry threats.
What you need is something to take the edge off.
No one's safe.
Witch hunters attacking Jane in her own home.
I can help, you know.
If I had my power back,
we could go after them.
You just worry about yourself.
It's what you're best at.
Hi.
I'm sorry. Do you want to be alone?
No, come on in. I was just...
just hiding.
She was an amazing lady.
What hurts the most...
I think what hurts the most about losing my grandmother is...
is that she's the only thing I left of my mom.
And now...
I mean, there's no one left alive really knows me...
When I was me,
before everything changed.
I may not have known you before,
but I know you now.
I know who you are, inside.
Cassie? You in there?
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
No, it's ok. It's ok. I get it.
Don't worry.
Cassie?
I was just checking on you.
I was just heading back downstairs.
You ok?
Not really.
My grandmother's dead, and it turns out
that my father has slept with half of Chance Harbor.
Cassie...
I told you last night,
I was deeply in love with your mother.
And when we broke up, I was with Elizabeth once.
And this news is a shock to me, too.
I will be there for Diana however I can.
But Amelia was the love of my life, Cassie,
and you are my daughter, and none of that is going to change.
And in the meantime, we cannot lose our focus.
This tragedy shows you just how close the witch hunters are.
I want to destroy them,
now more than ever.
We have to find those last two crystals.

== sync, corrected by elderman ==
I've noticed mom keeps a bottle of pills in her purse.
I think they're the reason behind her random bursts of happiness.
And if anyone needs a burst right now, it's us.
Problem is, she never lets me near her Prada.
I'll give it a little push.
Hmm. Be right back.
Mom?
I just keep thinking about Cassie's grandma.
And then, I keep thinking about grandpa,
and now, they're both gone.
Don't worry, honey. It's going to be ok.
Dad? Have you been here all along?
You missed the entire wake. Why weren't you there?
Oh, sorry. I got caught up with some work stuff.
How's Cassie holding up?
Ok, I guess.
She's going to need you, more than ever.
I have to ask you something.
Anything.
What was mom's relationship, exactly,
with John Blackwell?
What do you mean?
Is there a chance that...
John Blackwell is my father?
What?
Where--where is this coming from?
Cassie and her father.
Is it possible?
Uh...
Dad?
Your mom and I went through a rough period.
We separated-- just for a few weeks,
to figure things out.
But when we got back together,
we were stronger and happier.
And when you were born,
it was the best day of both of our lives.
This isn't happening.
Diana.
I was there when you were born. I raised you.
I'm your father, not him.
So whatever Blackwell said to you--
I haven't talked to him.
Good. Don't.
He'll do whatever he needs to earn your trust,
and then, he will prey on your fears,
and he will manipulate you into doing things
that you never thought you'd ever do.
Promise me
that you will stay away from him.
I will.
You're my daughter, and I love you.
Adam.
I wanted to say I'm sorry for this morning,
the way I kind of attacked you.
I don't know where that came from.
Please don't apologize, Cassie.
I'm here for you
no matter what.
Hey. Let's start.
We can find the last two crystals
without the rest of the circle.
Your powers, combined with the crystals we've found so far,
should allow all the crystals to find each other.
The crystals will refract their power onto this chart
and pinpoint the location of them and the other two.
Now, repeat after me.
Thrughain, adhar,
thruagort isham.
Thrughain, adhar, thruagort isham.
It's working.
There's the 4 crystals we have here.
And the map's only showing one of the two remaining.
Where is it?
The house next door to Cassie's.
Jake's.
This kind of grieving is more my speed.
But this is a one-time-only thing.
Oh, yes.
I just hope my mother's little helpers
will make me feel like this never happened at all.
What?
Is that...
My family's crystal.
5 down, one to go.
Not exactly.
That one's dead.
I--I might have tested it. Just to be sure.
Where did you find this?
In my mom's purse.
Ok. So now, we just have to find
Adam's family's crystal.
But it didn't appear on the map.
It must be cloaked. Adam's grandfather could've spelled
and hidden it before he died.
What if we can't find it?
We have to.
Maybe your grandfather left a clue
that might help us figure out his cloaking spell
or at least give us an idea of where he hid it.
I could look.
Yeah, but even if we find it,
Faye's crystal doesn't have any power.
I know a spell we can recharge it with,
but we need the entire circle.
You find Diana. Let's meet back here tonight.
Adam, we need that sixth crystal.
We can't make the crystal skull
or protect ourselves without it.
You didn't answer the door.
Or phone, or texts.
I told my father about Blackwell.
What happened?
It was terrible.
He had no idea.
Is he ok?
I just told him that the man he hates most in the world
slept with his wife.
Anyway, what's the emergency?
I take it there is one.
Faye found her family crystal.
But we need the whole circle to recharge it.
My father's going to show us how.
I'm not sure that's a good idea.
What?
Is it smart to do absolutely everything
Blackwell tells us to?
Well, it's the only way we know how to stop the witch hunters.
What if it isn't the only way?
Look, I know that you're upset.
But the witch hunters are closer than ever.
They killed my grandmother last night.
We need to protect ourselves.
And we need you to help us do it.
What are we looking for?
No idea.
I don't know anything about my grandfather,
except that he built this place,
and he taught history at the high school.
And apparently, he liked to hide important things
with cloaking spells,
so it seems unlikely he'd just leave
important clues lying around.
You know what? Don't worry. We'll find something.
Or we won't, and it'll be my fault
that we can't put the crystals together.
Are you ok?
Cassie...
She...
kissed me today.
Like--like, a full-on, real kiss?
Look, it was an emotional morning,
and I'm sure it didn't mean anything.
Why are you sure?
We drank an elixir, remember?
Made us forget our feelings, so...
Look, can just we forget I said anything?
I think I have an elixir that will help with that.
It's the middle of the day.
Yeah, a really hard, emotionally draining day
that started with a wake
because the witch hunters are already here
and killing the people we love.
Maybe this'll help loosen us up
so we can get into your grandpa's head.
So what part of "we need to recharge the crystals
before the witch hunters kill us" doesn't Diana understand?
I'm sure she has her reasons.
Oh, like what? Buying more push-up bras?
Brushing up on her Aussie accent?
Not exactly.
I've been dealing with something personal.
So have we.
Personally, I don't want to die.
John Blackwell is my father.
Since when?
What are you talking about?
I found out at the mine.
I couldn't get in, like Cassie,
because we're related.
Your grandfather was right.
And she's the one.
How is this fair?
Right about what?
He had a theory that Blackwell had
more than one child in our circle.
Why didn't you tell me?
He had a lot of theories,
most of them crazy.
But not all, apparently.
And according to my mom's journal,
Blackwell might have had something with her, too.
Your daddy got around.
And this is the guy we're supposed to be trusting
to save us from the witch hunters?
He's saved us from them once.
We'd be dead if it weren't for him.
What the hell's going on?
Cassie, are you doing this?
No!
What the hell? The crystal!
It's gone.
We totally got out-magicked
in our own magic house.
Unbelievable.
It was witch hunters.
There's ash around the whole house.
But the crystal was stolen using magic.
It must've been the traitor witch.
And why would the traitor want it?
To give themselves more power.
Or to stop us from putting together
the crystal skull.
We have to get it back.
How?
Isaac.
I can talk to him.
Really? Is a witch hunter
the best guy to help us steal something
from witch hunters?
I know Isaac doesn't believe in what Eben's doing.
Demons, using magic--
those are the things he dedicated his life to stop.
Why hasn't he stopped Eben?
Maybe Eben's too strong.
If I can convince Isaac we can stop Eben
by putting together the crystals,
maybe he'll help us get that crystal back.
Anyone have another idea?
I think it's worth a shot.
Ok. I'll run it by my father.
No.
We were a circle before he got here,
we can handle this on our own.
Maybe we don't need Blackwell on this one.
Isaac would never trust him.
Maybe Isaac's smarter than we are.
John? It's Charles.
When Cassie kissed you,
did you feel anything...
Romantic?
No.
There was something between the two of you
from the beginning.
Maybe it'll just keep developing, like for the first time,
no matter how hard you try to forget it.
There's a curse on us.
If we started
developing feelings again,
someone in the circle could die.
That was my grandpa's.
That was his lucky coin.
He always had it on him.
I remember...
He used to do this trick
where he'd hold it out from my ear,
and then, he'd move it around his hands...
And he would make it--
Cloaked?
But how did he do it?
I think it went something like...
Ok.
It's cloaked. You cloaked it.
That's incredible.
I can feel it. It's still here in my hand.
How do you uncloak it?
I don't know.
No Isaac.
Unless they're here,
and this is a trap. They're just waiting to kill us.
That's not who Isaac is.
Trust me.
Who the hell is that?
Ian.
The last time one of your buddies showed up,
he had a demon inside him.
Just let me talk to him.
We have no other way to get answers.
You want to talk?
You son of a bitch.
I am Diana's father.
I never planned on telling her.
She figured it out on her own.
Elizabeth was my wife.
We're in a public place, Charles.
What are you going to do? Hit me?
You think this will let you control her, don't you?
She's too smart for that. She's too good for that.
I can destroy you.
Yeah? Look around me, John.
'Cause if you do anything to me,
Diana will know it was you.
Everyone will know. You can't touch me.
I'm going to take Diana as far away from
Chance Harbor as possible.
You'll never see her again.
Jake.
Ian.
I'm sorry about Samuel.
It was a senseless death.
Is that why you called?
A condolence card would've been fine.
I called Isaac. Why are you here?
Because Isaac's dead.
What?
Eben killed him.
He's lying. He's messing with you.
I know you. You wore a pig mask on Halloween.
You chloroformed me.
You took us to a boat yard and tried to burn us.
You called me. What do you want?
You know where my house is.
You killed my grandmother.
Cassie.
I don't know what you're talking about.
More lies.
You're a murderer.
And what does that make you?
You killed Luke. You lit him up like a Tor--
What--what are you doing?
Wait, Cassie! Stop! Cassie!
You're going to kill--
Cassie, stop! What are you doing? Stop--
Stop!
He tried to kill us on Halloween,
and he killed my grandmother.
You don't know that.
And your dark magic almost ruined
any chance we had of getting the crystal back.
Keep her the hell away from me!
That's the witch you left us for?
You're pathetic, Jake.
Why did Eben kill Isaac?
Because Isaac turned on him.
Isaac believed that all magic was rooted in evil.
He hated that Eben was using it.
The magic Eben got from the witch traitor.
After the witch helped Eben summon the demons,
he no longer useful.
Eben told Isaac to kill him, but Isaac didn't.
The witch escapes. Eben killed Isaac as punishment.
Who was the traitor?
Never found out.
I tracked the witch to Chance Harbor.
I lost him. With any luck,
he's here to kill all of you.
Maybe we should get Cassie back here, huh?
Look, I only came here
out of respect for Isaac, all right?
I know how close you were.
Hey! He can't just leave! What the hell?
That's it?
What, you're just letting him walk away?
- We got what we needed. - What?
We know the traitor wasn't bringing the crystal to the hunters,
which means he was on his own.
We can track it and bring it back.
Wait. If Isaac turned on Eben,
maybe Ian and the others who were loyal to Isaac
can be convinced to turn, too.
A truce? Really?
Don't you remember how that worked out for our parents?
Maybe annihilation isn't the only way to stop this war.
Let's just find the crystal.
Putting together the crystal skull
gives us leverage either way.
Even if we find it,
how are we going to get the crystal away from the traitor?
There's 4 of us and one of him.
Oh, and I forgot,
we've got the dark magic super twins on our side.
Hardly.
What does that mean?
Even if I have dark magic, I'd never use it.
We're very different people.
Oh, come on, Diana,
at least try it. Destroy something!
Let's just concentrate on finding the crystal. Ok?
It's near Hudson Fields.
Where is that?
Uh, the creepiest place on earth.
Are you sure you're doing it exactly like he did it?
He would-- he would say something
to make it reappear.
Maybe what was written on the coin?
Look, I don't remember.
I was too busy being amazed at it disappearing.
Wait.
Brilliant.
That's it.
- There. Right? - Yeah.
Hic tamen non hic.
Ostendo.
It worked.
And on more than just the coin.
What do you mean? Wow. Adam, what is that?
It's a freshly uncloaked secret panel.
You're an uncloaking genius.
What happened to your face?
Charles.
Why would he do that?
He found out that...
that Diana is my daughter.
What?
You and Elizabeth?
You and I tried, Dawn.
It just wasn't meant to be.
And you never did forgive me for that, did you?
That's not true, at all.
But now, I need your help.
Charles is going to take Diana and leave town.
I need you to keep that from happening.
Why?
Diana can't leave.
I need a full circle to assemble the skull
and defeat the witch hunters.
So you are trying to finish
what we couldn't do 16 years ago.
This circle is much stronger than yours.
Why, because your own children are in it?
Help me now, Dawn,
and I'll get you your power back.
And everything will be right.
Even if we defeat the witch hunters,
The Elders will never allow that to happen.
They won't be around to object.
After the witch hunters are gone,
we're going to eliminate The Elders.
It'll be just like we dreamed.
No more hiding.
Out of the broom closet,
as you always used to say.
Is that why you stole my crystal?
I didn't steal your crystal.
Faye gave it to me.
Faye?
I didn't realize the children were being so helpful.
It's your help I need now, Dawn.
I'll talk to Charles.
Here.
You're a master elder with a badass cloaking spell,
and you use it to hide your girlie mags?
It's not here.
If the spell uncloaked everything my grandfather cloaked,
and the crystal is not here,
then where is it?
Do you know what we need?
- Another drink? - No.
The crystal-locating map.
This is Hudson Fields?
Are you sure he's even in there?
The crystal definitely is, and that's all we need.
I've had at least a dozen nightmares start this way.
And most of them involve you.
Come on.
Ok. But if I run into any kind of clown, I'm so out of here.
Faye.
If we live, remind me to download this song.
It'd be perfect for my "Running for your life" treadmill mix.
Let's split up.
Find him faster.
- I'll go with Faye. - Oh, no.
I wouldn't dream of coming in between the Blackwell sisters.
So that means it's you and me.
Wow. Your enthusiasm is overwhelming.
Check some rides?
That sounded a lot more romantic
when you took me here two years ago.
I really doubt I had romance on my mind back then.
False alarm. Just a disgusting rat.
Scooby and shaggy are such scaredy-cats.
Going on a trip?
I'm taking Diana out of town for a while.
What are you doing here?
Seeing if you're ok.
Half the town saw your tussle with Blackwell.
Blackwell's the reason I'm leaving town.
What happened? What did he say?
I'm not going to talk about John Blackwell with you.
You have a bigger blind spot for him than any of us.
Please. Just...
Tell me what's going on.
He's trying to take Diana away.
He wants our children, Dawn.
He wants his own private army of witches
to do his bidding
and get him the power he's always craved.
Diana is the one good thing in my life,
and I will never let him take her.
I'm losing Faye, too.
She stole my crystal, and she brought it to him.
Blackwell has them working for him in secret,
just like he did to us.
And this is our fault.
We brought Cassie here so we could use
the power of their circle to get our strength back.
And all we've done is hand their power right to him.
I'm well aware.
And I'm leaving.
No matter where you go, the circle will still be bound
Diana will still be connected to them.
This is our responsibility. We have got to stop him.
He will use our children however he wants to--
no matter what the cost.
Except this time, it won't be
Tom and Elizabeth who end up dead.
It'll be Faye and Diana.
You do remember our date here, right?
Red dress.
Of course I remember.
Oh.
Seriously? This scares you?
Clowns? Yes.
Their painted-on faces, their freakishly large feet.
I could go on.
What's that?
Hey.
Hey!
Ian.
He's dead.
Let's turn on the power.
Oh, my God.
Who are they?
Witch hunters.
I guess the traitor witch is looking to kill them and us.
So now the traitor will just kill anyone?
What happened to him?
He's more messed up than you were.
Let's ask him about it after we get the crystal.
Blood.
Jake.
Let's follow it.
Stay close.
What are you two doing here?
You were right about the cloaking spell.
Adam lifted it.
I think we found the last crystal.
I hope you're right.
It's somewhere in the high school.
I don't hear anyone.
Good.
Worst. House. Ever.
Look, a door.
Without Ian, I guess your truce isn't going to work out.
They never seem to.
Not if people can't stop killing.
Are you trying to say something?
Ever since your father got here,
you've lost sense of what is right.
You're letting your dark magic take hold of you,
and it scares me.
Diana, he's our father.
Wait. That's what this is about.
What you're really afraid of is that
you'll end up just like me.
No.
I couldn't kill anyone.
You think it's that easy?
To hurt someone? Anyone?
Don't forget, my dark magic is what saved your life.
That witch hunter back there,
him and his friends, they were going to light a cruet.
And torch you on Halloween, ok?
So just back off on the judgment
until your best friend is about to die.
And then, tell me how much dark magic
you would or wouldn't use to save
the few people left that you truly care about.
Diana, we're in this together,
whether you like it or not.
You're right. We are in this together.
But killing is wrong.
And I'm going to keep reminding you of that.
The traitor.
Come on!
Something's not right here.
The sway.
This is what transfers power from witches to mortals.
It's called a sway.
This is definitely where the traitor witch has been hiding out.
We don't want to hurt you.
All we want is the crystal.
He's trapped.
Faye.
Why would the witch have a photograph of my parents?
Cassie, please.
Please.
You stopped it from killing him.
I hope that wasn't a mistake.
Nick?
He's alive?
