Putlocker was ill-behaved last night, so my viewing of the ep was sporadic and fraught with lag. My disjointed experience was that it wasn't the standout hour of television I'd hoped it would be.
Too much exposition, too much of a rework of the backdoor pilot, and Elijah is great but is too neutered.
I thought it was pretty good. Don't worry though, he'll be set free by the next(3rd at the latest) episode.
Not that it should matter to you as you hate that character. I was more intrigued by that seeming continuity error wherein we're shown [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Kol daggered when in the mainstream TVD continuity it was explained that Klaus only [SPOILER - highlight to read]: daggered Kol for a hundred years or so.

Elijah has been daggered the most times in the show, which is what we're talking about. He has been daggered approximately 37 times. At this point we have to accept the fact that he's an idiot.
He's the only Original who's consistently beaten the sh1t out of Klaus, unlike Kol who keeps getting owned by young vampires(some of whom are even newbies).
Except it is. Klaus implied that he freed all his siblings barring Finn after the Brotherhood of the Five sneak-daggered them. Kol's own conversation with Elena implied that until their escape from New Orleans, he was a free bird.
No it isn't. You are completely right when saying that Klaus undaggered him after the five fiasco. However all Kol said was that when he was in NOLA he was not daggered.
There is a huge gap between the five incident and NOLA. So many times Kol could have been daggered. And that was one of the moments.
And great second episode. What did you guys think?
Elijah specifically mentioned the time periods for which Kol and Finn had been daggered.
Kol was kept in a box for over a century. Which contradicts the idea that Kol was running free in NO, when even in recent episode there has been no indication that he had been set free yet.
Not to mention that Elijah's surprise-fueled claim regarding how long both Kol and Finn had been daggered indicates that he was unaware of what Klaus did to either of them. Which is again in direct contradiction with him being aware of his luggage being his own semi-dead brothers.
