Cassie: Previously on
"The Secret Circle"
You're a witch.
You're a
full-blooded, 100% witch.
Adam:
A complete circle is 6.
You complete
the circle.
This is about
devil's spirit.
You went through
that last bag a little fast.
I told you
it's dangerous stuff.
It took someone
very important away from me.
Your old girlfriend.
I know.
It's a power totem.
Put this on your bed
for a few weeks,
and you'll be left with
nothing but pure power.
I figured out a way
to make you better.
When I was holding
the medallion,
I felt an incredibly
clear connection
to my father.
He's had 16 years
to look for you.
Isaac: The minute Cassie activated
the medallion,
she alerted every dead witch
whose power it's taken.
Jake: The power's tied
to the medallion.
My father
I think I let the idea of him
overshadow the reality.
I think he should stay
wherever he's been hiding.
[Music playing]
Moving out?
Actually, yeah.
Wait, what?
Seriously?
Yeah.
My grandmother, she's coming
back from the clinic.
Tonight, actually.
That's great news.
[Chuckles]
The grandmother part--
not you moving out.
I know.
She's almost back
to her old self, though.
But I really will miss
your snoring.
Imagine me without you around
asking if I'm awake,
how will I know when it's
the middle of the night?
Well, I will call you from home
whenever I can't sleep.
[Chuckles]
I promise.
[Knock on door]
Come in.
Morning.
These college catalogs just
came in the mail.
I thought you both
should take a look.
Cassie's leaving us.
Her grandmother's back.
Mmm.
Dad, are you ok?
Yeah, of course.
Just surprised.
Diana told me about you getting
a job at Java Brew.
And I guess between that
and you moving out,
it feels like my newest
daughter's all grown up.
[Chuckles] I know.
It's all so exciting.
So when can I start
getting my free coffee?
I'll probably be fired
by lunchtime.
No, you're going to be
the best barista ever.
Or at least the cutest one.
Just work that angle.
Well,
good luck, Cassie.
And I'm thrilled
to hear about Jane.
Thank you.
And thank you for
looking after me.
It was our pleasure.
Why do all the men in my life
like you more than me?
[Laughs]
Kidding.
Mmm!
[Creaks]
Hello?
Who's there?
I've already called
the police.
[Gasps]
I wouldn't open that
if I were you.
Very bad luck.
What the hell
are you doing here?
I thought I saw someone
from my place.
Then
your door was open.
Really?
Everythng's fine.
I checked.
You think someone broke in to
tidy the place up a little?
They missed a spot.
Where'd
that come from?
I must have tracked it in
from outside.
What's going on?
Ash mixed with salt.
The kind of stuff
witch hunters use to
block a witch's power.
Isaac warned me.
He said they'd
come after you.
I didn't expect them
so soon.
They're here.

Isaac wanted
the medallion--
power of
a thousand witches,
the only way to stop a witch
hunter attack on dark magic.
Then he was furious
wen I told him it was destroyed.
That doesn't make sense.
He's not a witch.
He couldn't use it
anyway.
I don't get it.
But they're obviously in town,
and I'm not
leaving you alone.
No, I don't need
a babysitter,
and definitely not one
with uncontrollable anger issues.
I'll be safer with this,
mixed with a little
individual power.
What the hell?
See? I can more than
take care of myself.
[Music playing]
We have a mocha,
half 2%, half soy milk.
An Earl Grey tea, steamed,
no water.
And a short, skinny,
decaf vanilla latte.
We haven't
ordered yet.
Right.
Carry the tray
with your weak hand
so you can serve
with your strong one.
Ok.
And it's all about balance.
Yours and the tray's.
Bend your knees.
Just a little.
[Giggles]
Oh, too much.
First cup goes
in the center.
The others form
a circle around it.
Or you could just
work here for me?
I'll split
my minimum wage with you.
[Chuckles] Um, that's
Hi.
Here you go.
Earl Grey.
Mm.
Look, I've actually got
to get to the boathouse.
Um, look at us,
a couple of working stiffs.
Oh.
Uh
[Sighs]
Someone was
in my house.
I think
witch hunters.
What?
How do you know?
When were
you even there?
Uh, this morning.
I moved
out of Diana's.
Well, I told her
my grandmother was back.
- Is she?
- No.
I've just imposed on
Diana for too long,
and I want to sleep
in my own bed.
Well, that's definitely
not going to happen now.
Adam, yes, it is.
Look, I just served a bunch
of raging caffeine addicts.
Witch hunters
don't scare me.
Yeah, maybe not,
but I'm coming over anyway.
Adam, that's not
what I'm saying.
Relax,
not to watch over you.
A witch hunter attack is
a good excuse
for me to spend some time with
you in an otherwise empty house
I like your style,
Conant.
Guess they'll serve
anybody, right?
Mm, yes,
but not well.
The queen bee serving me
a latte on bent knees.
Life is good.
Waitress?
Refill here.
Oh, come on, Faye.
Get over it.
Get over what?
Jake's thing
for Cassie.
She can have him.
I don't care.
Look,
if you're so over Jake,
why don't you
just move on?
Lee is into you.
Lee?
Date below
my station?
No.
Total
power mismatch.
Speaking
of slumming
Hey, there.
Callum.
I'm throwing a party
at my place later.
You ladies interested in making
it even more awesome?
No, thanks.
We're just sticking
to a coffee buzz these days.
It might be fun.
We'll think about it.
Great.
I'll text you my address.
Hmm.
What? He's not
what you think.
He's actually
an ok guy.
Yeah? I bet you could
get a two-for-one deal in rehab.
Yeah, staying
with Diana is great.
But I'll be glad when you're
ready to come home.
[Sighs]
I miss you, grandma.
[Chuckles]
Ok, ok.
All right.
I love you, too.
[Beeps]
[Footsteps]
Jake?
Hello, Cassie.
My name's
John Blackwell.
I'm your father.
How do I know
you're really my father?
You know.
You sense it.
Does this mean
that you
Are actually alive?
I owe you
an explanation.
Oh, don't bother.
I'm pretty much
gotten used to the idea
of you not being around.
Let's just keep it
that way.
I couldn't let anybody know
that I was alive.
But once you activated
the medallion,
I knew that
you were in trouble.
I've been in trouble
a lot lately.
Your timing
kind of sucks.
You need to go.
What?
I don't
want you here.
I don't need
your help.
Yes, you do.
[Vehicle approaches]
[Engine shuts off]
Let me explain.
Meet me at the end of the
boardwalk in one hour.
Once I know you're safe,
you never have to see me again.
Tell me now.
That's Adam.
Anything you say to me, I'm
just going to tell him anyway.
You can't.
No one can know
that I'm here.
The only reason why
I stayed away all this time
was to protect you.
Everything that I've done since
the day of the boat yard fire
was to keep you from
being in the very situation
you are right now.
[Footsteps]
Hey, there.
Hi.
You ok?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Totally.
Ok.
[Chuckles]
Well, I was thinking
maybe we could,
I don't know, go see a movie
or get something to eat.
I'm sorry, but, um
something came up.
I--I can meet you later.
Cassie,
what's going on?
My father was here.
What?
Yeah.
You know that, uh, that spell
I did with the medallion?
I told you I felt something present
And it turns out that
he felt mine, too.
He came back,
because I called him.
So he really is alive.
Yes.
Eh.
Where is he now?
He left.
He doesn't want anyone
to know he's here.
Why not?
I don't know.
But he wants me
to meet him later.
You're not going to,
right?
Cassie,
all those stories we've heard
about who he is,
the evil things
he's done
He's actually here now.
Ok? I can ask him.
I can find out the truth
about who he is
and what happened to
our parents' circle.
Then I'm coming
with you.
Adam, he's not going
to hurt me.
I'm his daughter.
He said
I was in danger.
He wanted to help.
He's had a lot
of chances to help.
He's here
for something else.
Then I better
find out what.
[Cell phone rings]
[Ring]
[Beeps]
Hello.
Hey, it's Diana.
Is Melissa with you?
No.
Well, she was supposed
to come over,
and she's really late.
I can't get
a hold of her.
It's adorable how clingy
you are in relationships.
I mean, it worked out
so well with Adam,
I can see why you'd do
the same thing with Melissa.
I'm her friend, and I just
want to make sure she's ok.
After everything that
happened at your place,
I'm just worried.
Well, she's at a party,
at Callum's.
Callum?
The guy who gave her
devil's spirit?
Aren't you
freaking out?
What if she's using
that stuff again?
Yeah.
I was just sitting here,
freaking out.
I mean,
I'm her best friend,
so of course
I was freaking out.
God.
[Scoffs]
We have to do something,
don't we?
Totally.
I was just going to say that.
Where is Callum's house?
I don't know.
But I know who does.
[Sighs]
[Knock on door]
[Clears throat]
[Door opens]
Ladies.
What a pleasant
surprise.
What,
no kiss this time?
I have no idea what you're
talking about.
Well, I could
refresh your memory.
Put it away, Lee.
This isn't a *** call.
We're looking for
Callum's address.
Melissa's at his party,
and we're worried
about her.
You let her go to
Callum's party by herself?
Yes, mommy.
Now just give us the address,
and we'll be on our way.
What are you doing?
I'm going with you.
You don't think
we can handle ourselves?
I get it.
You guys are witches.
But voodoo's a whole
different world.
There's a right
and left hand path.
Callum practices
left--
evil,
malicious juju.
Some of the people that go to his
parties don't come back the same.
So you sure you still
want to go alone?
Aw, he cares.
Callum uses people.
He'll take
whatever you've got.
And what you guys have,
he'll take
any way he can.
Now, come on.
Let's go.
Hi.
I'm glad you came.
I don't know
where to start.
I have an entire childhood and
adolescence worth of questions.
And you aren't sure
if you can trust me.
I'm sure that I don't.
Why would I?
Because
I'm your father.
Yeah, well,
there's also the whole
our-family-line-is-pure-evil
thing.
There are a lot of
stories out there.
But the truth is bigger, and
I think you know that.
I'm pretty solid on
the part about you
abandoning me and my mom.
If anyone knew
I was alive,
they would have
come for you to get to me,
you and your mother.
My mother's dead.
Yes, I know.
And I'm sorry.
I loved your mother.
So did I.
And I'm sure she was
very proud of you.
What, are you just,
like, saying that
to make up for
all the school plays
and the piano recitals
that you missed?
Because I didn't do
any of those,
if that makes you feel
any better.
I'm saying that
because I knew your mother
as well as anyone.
And you were exactly
the daughter
that we always dreamed of.
Cassie,
you have to give me
the medallion.
What?
As long as you have it,
the spirits it contained
will come after you.
You give me the medallion,
I will disappear.
Forever.
Adam was right.
You only came here for--
for something
other than me.
You told him
you saw me?
Yes.
[Sighs] You shouldn't
have done that, Cassie.
Well, I did.
I did,
because Adam is someone
who I actually trust.
I'm not giving you
that medallion,
and I don't need
your protection.
I've done fine without it
for the last 16 years.
[Grunting]
Tie her to the chair
And prepare
for the ceremony.
[Music playing]
Glad you came?
I guess.
So, you're obsessed
with voodoo.
Do, uh, girls usually
like that?
It's kind of
a hobby.
Want a little
devil's spirit?
Take the edge
off your judgmentalness?
[Scoffs]
I didn't come for that.
What did you
come for?
I'll let you know
when I see it.
How about
Something
completely different?
Yeah.
Ugly dolls
and fake blood
is so Lee.
Lee's a scammer.
This is real voodoo.
Have a little faith.
Concentrate
on your totem.
I'll do
all the work.
Ok.
[Clears throat]
[Gasps]
Oh, my God.
Oh.
God.
I felt it,
like a surge.
Told you.
Feel good?
[Laughs] Yeah.
Let's do it again.
All right.
My turn.
Switch totems.
Um, I don't know.
Maybe not
Relax.
All right?
Don't be
selfish, now.
All right.
Let's just split up,
find your friend,
and get out of here.
Do not leave this room.
Got it?
Yes, sir.
He's very protective
of you.
It's so sweet.
Please.
Feel it heat up,
slap your palms.
Did you feel it?
I sure did.
[Exhales]
Is something wrong?
Not at all.
In fact
Let me show you
something really amazing.
Cassie? Cassie!
Cassie?
Who the hell are you?
[Grunts]
Why were you yelling for Cassie?
Did something happen to her?
Why would I tell you
anything?
I'm her father.
You're supposed
to be dead.
I asked you
a question.
Is something wrong?
We found salt ash
around her house.
Hunters.
And I can't find her.
She's not home, and she's not
answering her phone.
Where else could she be?
I don't know
with Adam Conant, maybe,
at the boathouse.
[Bangs]
[Grunts]
Eben?
You were expecting
Isaac?
He already failed
twice here.
He has a soft spot for
you that seems to be
getting in the way.
And I have to be sure
that this task
Gets done.
You came for Cassie.
[Exhales] Yes.
To trade for her life.
A witch with
her dark magic?
What could you give me more
valuable than that?
John Blackwell.
Blackwell.
Yes.
He's alive.
You have proof?
I just talked to him.
Agree to let Cassie go,
I'll bring Blackwell to you.
[Gasps]
Your power is of
no help to you here.
Not with colocasia
powder surrounding you.
That's what you used
against my father.
Yes.
And luckily for me,
you destroyed the medallion he
used to overcome it.
So why aren't I dead?
My plans changed
when I heard about
your father's miraculous
resurrection.
He and I go back
a long way.
I didn't expect
to see him again.
You're afraid of him.
One must be careful
when going against
such a stronger adversary.
[Gasping]
What re you doing?
Being
[grunting] extremely careful.
Supnous tiemlo.
[Door shuts]
Adam?
I need to find Cassie.
You're Cassie's father.
Yes.
What the hell?
Adam,
go into the office.
You shouldn't be here.
It's not possible.
Hello, Ethan.
Stay away
from my son.
He's looking
for Cassie.
Amelia wouldn't want
you anywhere near her.
Amelia would want
her safe.
And I didn't come here
to make trouble.
But I do need
to find Cassie.
No.
What you need to do
is get the hell out
of Chance Harbor.
Clearly, we have
some unfinished business, Ethan.
Right now, I need
to find my daughter.
Stay away from him.
Believe me
when I tell you
he is the last person
you ever want to know--
you or Cassie.
I found out
where Cassie is.
Where?
The witch hunters
have her.
Diana?
I need your help.
[Music playing]
Kind of creepy,
Callum.
Maid's day off.
So, what did you
want to show me?
What are you?
I don't--
I don't understand.
When we transferred
power back, I got a huge,
charge off you.
Way more than
what I gave you.
You're a witch.
[Laughs]
You're high.
I'm right, aren't I?
Whoa.
If I have as much power
as you think I do,
do you really want
to test it?
I've been looking for you.
Where's Callum?
That jerk locked me
in a room.
He knows I'm a witch.
Let's go.
We have to find
Diana and Lee.
Lee is the same.
He's using you.
No.
Lee came here
to help us.
Callum has a totem just like
the one Lee gave you.
He showed me
how it works.
It doesn't give energy.
It takes it.
Are you sure?
I felt it.
Adam called.
Cassie's in trouble.
You found Melissa.
And now we're leaving
without you.
What's wrong?
Melissa told me
about your totem scam.
Screw you.
Where'd she hear that?
Callum?
The totem doesn't
mean anything.
It's just an object.
It's the spell
that matters.
I can't believe
I trusted you.
Where is she?
I don't know.
This is where the hunters
were taking her.
How would you
know something like that?
I have history
with them.
[Cassie grunting]
You try any of your magic,
and I'll kill her.
You're making
a serious mistake.
Bold talk coming
from a dead man.
Time to
let her go.
We had a deal.
The terms of
the deal have changed.
Blackwell
gets Cassie.
And I get you, Jake.
We have accounts
to settle.
I'll give you
your daughter unharmed.
And then,
I'll walk away.
Jake?
Fine.
Let her go.
Go to your father.
Let's go.
What about
Jake?
He'll be ok.
We just need to get
you away from here.
[Grunts]
What the hell, Ben?
The iron will keep
your power in check.
What happened to
killing Blackwell?
I don't have to.
Cassie will.
[Music playing]
Lee.
Since when do you leave
a party before it's over?
When it's
a lame party.
Oh.
Not as lame as
hiding secrets from your friends.
Whatever.
You know,
I thought it was strange
how you moved on
from Eva so fast.
You loved her.
It'd take more than
a tight *** and a smile
to get you
to forget about her.
What's your point?
My point is,
there's more to Faye and
her friends than I thought.
They're witches.
Melissa's power,
that's big magic
for a small girl.
Faye's is
off the charts.
Go near Faye
and her friends,
and I promise
you'll regret it.
[Laughs]
She got to you.
Don't you kid
yourself, Lee.
I know you're using her
for something.
It's what you do.
It's what we both do.
The road's
just over there.
We got to hurry.
They'll come after us.
Cassie?
What are you doing?
What's that?
I don't know.
Why are you doing that?
I have no idea.
Cassie?
What's going on?
I don't know.
Put the branch down!
[Choking]
Why is this happening?
You've been spelled
with Linden.
It's
a hypnotic root.
Use your magic!
Stop me, please!
I can't.
[Grunts]
I don't have
magic anymore.
Fight it, Cassie.
I'm trying.
I can't!
You're stronger
than you think.
Push me down!
Knock me over!
Do something!
No! I won't hurt you.
[Screams]
What are you doing?
Your usefulness
has come to an end.
I brought you Blackwell!
We had a deal!
Your father said
nearly the same thing
just before
I slit his throat.
[Grunts]
[Gasps and groans]
Oh, my God.
You're welcome.
You do that?
Can I get
a little help?
Lock unlock.
[Jake gasps
and pants]
Lock unlock.
Are you ok?
Yeah.
Thanks.
What the hell?
That's impossible.
He had branch through his gun.
How'd he get up
and run away?
I don't know, but right now,
we need to find Cassie.
Cassie,
fight the spell.
I'm trying.
I can't.
Adam: Cassie!
I've been spelled.
I can't stop!
We have to break
the connection
between Cassie
and the spell.
Adam:
Follow my lead.
By our power,
restore her will.
All: By our power,
restore her will
[Screams]
The spell's not working.
We need the whole circle.
Cassie,
you have to help.
Focus on the words
as hard as you can.
I can't!
Forget what your body is doing.
Just concentrate
on the spell.
By our power
All: Restore
her willSpell.
By our power,
restore her will.
By our power,
restore her will.
By our power,
restore her will.
[Panting]
So, isn't Cassie's father
supposed to be really, really evil?
We don't know
that for sure.
He didn't hurt Cassie, even when
she was coming after him.
I just hope we did
the right thing, saving him.
'Cause when my dad looked at
Blackwell tonight,
I've never seen him
so scared.
I can't believe
I almost killed you.
If the circle hadn't
been their to help-
They weren't there
for me, Cassie.
They came
to help you.
How did you lose
your magic?
After the fire,
the elders stripped
your mother's generation
of its powers.
Somehow,
it affected me
and honestly,
I wish they'd had taken it
a long time ago.
'Cause dark magic
took everything
I ever cared about--
you, your mother.
So,
what will happen now?
I don't know.
No one will ever believe
that I've changed.
Cassie, I am not
the man I used to be.
And all I care about is
keeping you safe.
I can't give you
the medallion.
You still don't
trust me?
I can't give you the medallion
because it's gone.
I destroyed it.
So, there's no reason for
you to stay.
No.
No,there's every reason.
You can't
protect yourself.
Yeah
Eben spelled me.
How?
When regular people
do that kind of thing,
they're called witches.
Eben and I go
a long way back,
and I can assure you
that he is not a witch.
Well, then he's working with one
like he worked with Jake.
What other explanation
is there?
I don't know.
But until I find out,
I'm staying right here
in Chance Harbor.
Good night.
[Music playing]
What the hell?
I came in
through the window.
And now, you can go back
out the window.
Faye, listen to me.
I would never do
anything to hurt you.
Touching.
Heartfelt.
Nothing says "I care" like
a power-sucking totem.
Give it to me.
What?
Give me the totem.
If you have any doubts
about this,
we'll just find you another
way to get you power.
Ok?
[Gasps]
[Knock on door]
You set me up today.
Eben would have killed
Cassie.
It was the only way
to stop him.
Thank you.
You saved
my daughter's life.
You obviously care
for her.
I do.
Then you and I should work
together to keep her safe,
because tonight was
only the beginning.
