I asked you to cease these petty moves against our family yet you conspire with this fool. Is this what it's come to, making moves against your own blood?
Don't you try and shame me. Nik grows more powerful by the day and you do nothing but encourage him.
I offer him my council because it's clear to me he means to make this city our home. And perhaps leading these... derelicts will curb some of these impulses, grant him some degree of happiness.
You always talk of Nik's happiness, but for one-thousand years he's robbed me of any chance of my own. What about me, Elijah? Am I not a concern for you?
We all make sacrifices in the name of this family Rebekah, but know this, I will never stand against you or Niklaus.
What about Hayley? Nothing I conspire to do, none of my treachery will harm this family as much as your feelings for her. You're a hypocrite, Elijah. You would chose love over family yet condemn me for doing the same.
