Aurora toys with Klaus and Elijah in "The Originals" season 3 episode 13 titled "Heart Shaped Box" and the guys are not having it at all. To accomplish her revenge, the vindictive vampire is playing a dirty trick on the Mikaelsons by putting Freya's life in the line of fire.

In the trailer for the new "The Originals" season 3 episode, Elijah and Klaus attempt to make a move before Aurora manages to hurt anyone else. "Aurora dies today!" Klaus promises to his brother. However, it looks like she is one step ahead of them.

Aurora managed to attract the duo to a place where she has the leverage. She puts the brothers against the clock to save their sister, who is buried alive in one of the many caskets scattered in the area. "The Originals" season 3 episode 13 promo shows Freya unable to hold on any longer.

From the looks of it though, Freya is mere collateral damage for Aurora because she is essentially after Klaus. It looks like she will finally get what she wants this time. "The Originals" season 3 trailer saw Aurora pull the trigger presumably on Klaus.

Meanwhile, Davina is still pre-occupied with carrying out a spell that will to help her friends escape their doom. However, she does not have all the components needed to make it work. This brings Kol into the picture. Davina will be conjuring up the dead vampire to seek his assistance.

"The Originals" season 3 episode 13 marks the return of Nathaniel Buzolic as Kol. The young Mikaelson was killed in the hands of Vincent in the previous season and while the character is also played by Daniel Sharman, the face Davina summons is that of Buzolic's.

"The Originals" season 3 episode 13 "Heart Shaped Box" airs Feb. 19 at 9 p.m. ET on CW. Watch "The Originals" online via CWTV.com.
