Freya created a tonic in order to prevent it happening again which Hayley consumed with the rest of the Mikaelson's.
Freya suggested using Jackson as a way to find Dahlia, Hayley wasn't happy with the idea at first, but after silent persuasion from Klaus she relented and agreed to let Freya perform the spell.
