Legacies: 6 huge moments from Lets Just Finish This Dance

It’s time for the annual Miss Mystic Falls pageant on this week’s episode of Legacies. Let’s look at the six biggest moments from the episode.

Tonight’s episode of Legacies features the return of an age-old tradition, the Miss Mystic Falls pageant. It’s the Salvatore School’s turn to host and Lizzie intended on being the belle of the ball. Then Dana’s mother turns up and makes it clear she doesn’t care for Lizzie one bit because her former-now-dead-nemesis, poisoned her mother against her.

A change of plans is then in order. To ensure the Salvatore School takes home a win, Lizzie puts all her eggs in Hope’s basket instead of her own sister’s!

The pageant isn’t the only big event this week, several surprising guests make return visits – some good, and some bad. Here are the six biggest moments from “Let’s Just Finish the Dance”.

6. Roman returns.

Remember Roman? Hope’s ex-boyfriend with the Nazi mother who was responsible for killing Hayley? He returns this week to add a fresh new obstacle to Hope and Landon’s relationship. Jealousy rears its ugly head when Landon spots Roman.

It doesn’t help that Hope insists on defending him. She doesn’t blame him for her mother’s death anymore and feels he has made amends by assisting Alaric recruit new students in the years since. I’m not sure if Legacies has more planned for Roman, at present, he’s a plot device to add angst between the show’s main couple.

5. A gorgon is on the prowl.

We meet another supernatural creature this week. She wasn’t drawn to the school by an artifact. Instead, she was sent on a mission issued from Agent Clark to bring Landon to him.

Does Medusa ring a bell? Apart from being a comic book enthusiast and potential love interest for MG, Medusa may be a distant relative. As a gorgon, she is able to turn people into stone and her hair turns into snakes. Alaric and MG’s mother wind up in her crosshairs.

MG is the one who imprisons her – first by doing some research on her weaknesses and saving Landon, they declare themselves “even” after the attack from last week. With Dorian out of the picture (side note: has anyone checked on Emma?) MG got a moment to shine in hunting down the gorgon’s weakness.
