The episode begins with a flashback from 1110 A.D. and we see a witch performing a spell, and five vampire hunters surrounding her. As the witch completes the spell, a hunter’s tattoo (like Connor’s) appears on each of the five hunters bodies. We also see that each hunter possesses a sword with the same symbol Klaus noticed on Connor’s vampire stakes.
