Favorite Quote: “I can hear everything you’re saying about Damon the vampire gigolo.” –Caroline
Likes:
- Not caring drinking like there is no tomorrow Damon is back — Yay!
- The Original Family seems to be slowly falling apart while trying to be brought together.
- Bonnie trying to practice the privacy spell with Elena while Caroline keeps coming in with her commentary.
- Damon and Stefan fighting over who gets to play hero this week for Elena – if only regular girls were so lucky.
- Elijah taking Elena on a little tour of the forest, and the cave from his perspective when they were younger, only for him to find out the truth that Elena has been hiding from him.
- Now Damon is all worried about Elena again while talking to Alaric and the ever curious (and possibly psycho) doctor.
- Damon helps plan the demise of the Originals to save Elena, and includes a blonde distraction name Caroline just for Klaus.
- Klaus being as charming as ever, daring Caroline to get to know each other — and admits again the he likes her.
- Elena having another small victory over Rebekah by ending up in the only part of the cave where no vampires are allowed.
- Alaric and Dr. Fell having a touching moment and oddly trusting Damon and Stefan – something seems off there.
- Damon and Stefan talking in the car, trying to be all calm, and thinking ‘what would Elena do’ while trying to keep those feelings bottled up.
- Elijah’s apology letter to Elena about it all; so traditional and meaningful.
- Finding out that the cedar tree that might be able to kill them could have reproduced — so their safety isn’t a guarantee yet.
Dislikes:
- The sad almost emotional tone at the beginning when Elena calls Stefan and he doesn’t pick up, but then called Damon and has awoken in bed with Rebekah – he’s over it.
- Elena comes over to find Rebekah leaving the house and she’s not happy about it.
- Elijah taking Elena underground and she can’t get any cell reception down there.
- Bonnie and Abbey talking to Esther about helping to ‘protect nature’.
- Rebekah is on guard duty to keep Elena in the cave, and videotaping it for prosperity.
- Elijah giving Damon and Stefan no choice but to help him or Elena dies by Rebekah’s hand.
- To make sure that once they are turned mortal that they will die because of Finn’s sacrifice of his life.
- Klaus realizing what was going on; he stops Damon’s little plan but only makes Elijah move forward with his threat to Elena’s life.
- Rebekah being ‘spontaneous’ while tossing gasoline at Elena and trying to burn her out of the protected part of the cave — then Elena uses tough little mind tricks to get Rebekah to hold off on killing her.
- Damon stopping the bloodline of witches that Esther is channelling by snapping Abbey’s neck – think another loss of a mother would be too soon again for Bonnie, and instead makes Abbey a vampire
- Bonnie not wanting to see Elena (because it’s all Elena’s fault), and Bonnie is always the one that’s gets hurt — but Elena just wants to once be there for the one person that’s always been there for her.
- Damon despite all his love for Elena stepping down again because he’s a better bad guy –- thought girls like the bad boys.
- Klaus burning the drawings of Caroline in the fireplace.
- Dr. Fell having a dagger and other incriminating evidence and shoots Alaric for finding the stuff.
WTF:
- Where did Esther and Finn really go when they went up in smoke after the power source was severed?
- Almost a whole month before the next new episode and vampire hotness? No!
