In a flashback to two years prior, Alyssa and Emma talk. Emma tells Alyssa that she is satisfied with her progress and the two do not need to continue with their weekly meetings. This excites Alyssa. Meanwhile in the present, Alyssa confronts Emma, revealing that she knows Emma wiped her memory previously. Emma tells Alyssa that they will discuss the event with Alaric, however Alyssa reveals that she duplicated the ascendant/Prison World spell and has transported Alaric, Lizzie and Josie to the 2028 Prison World — she remarks that this is "poetic". She wipes Emma's memory of her confessing, and returns to her room. When she returns to her room, she is confronted by Hope, who found the ascendant.

In the Prison World, Alaric realizes where he is, and arms himself with a stake by breaking a chair. Lizzie and Josie enter and question where they are, with Alaric revealing they are in the 2028 Prison World. At that moment, Sebastian reveals himself, and it is revealed that he did not choose to leave the school, but was outed by Alaric.

Summary

HAPPY COVEN DAY — As the witches of the Salvatore School come together to celebrate Coven Day, the latest monster to infiltrate the school targets Alyssa Chang and the other students by spreading discord and creating chaos among the covens.

Fed up with feeling powerless alongside Hope, Landon asks her to give him self-defense training. Finally, Alaric's past comes back to haunt him. MG and Kaleb also appear.[2]
