"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,
I'd be really happy
about that.
I'll talk to
you later, ok?
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.

Original Air Date on April 26, 2012
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.
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 got totally
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 ***.
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
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.
*** 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?
