This was the best episode ever! And by the look of it, it's just getting better and better. Damon and Katherine on the road with Jeremy back in the trunk, weird, and ok. Nothing to die for actually. All the action was happening in the Mystic Falls High school gym. I kind of thought it was a bit dull the thing between Elena trying to reason with Stefan not to kill her and Stefan being so angry.. Come on Stefan lighten up. What they should have done was, the second Klaus left those two alone was smosh a bit. It wouldn't hurt right? Stefan could hold off the urge to kill her for two seconds. But yes, it was a bit strange to leave Tyler behind, and that Tyler didn't think that much of what just happened. Dude.. You just died woke up, drank one of your friends blood and became a hybrid. Shouldn't you I don't know.. Have a couple of questions, ask maybe if Caroline was ok? But I think maybe that Klaus left so quickly was because of Damon. Not Damon, but Damons leverage; Michael.

If we are ignoring credence to whomever started this (Buffy/Spike analogy) I've always thought that Damon embodies an amalgamation of Disney Characters. Most certainly the Quasimodo / Esmeralda dynamic (a bit of Beauty and the Beast as well).

I guess Damon can have somebody to love if he stops falling for his brothers' GF's,Rose prefered the "bad boy" so she and Damon clicked but then she died.I think the question is why is Damon always falls for stafan's GF's.But whatever my favorites are stefan and elijah and rebekah is starting to grow on me.

GA Viewer, as Uncle Jackass already displayed, there is nothing wrong with the age of the characters on the show. In some places, Americans born in the summer months can delay going to school by a year, and those born afterwards, can be forced to wait a year before attending school. Elena is in this sort of situation, and for convenience sakes, I think most of the main cast (Elena, Tyler, Caroline, Bonnie, and Matt) have their birthdays on or after June 1, so that there were no significant age gaps between them. The writers of the show most likely did not want to send the characters to college until later, which is why all thier birthdays are in the second half of the year.

What's wrong with the research on this show? All these kids are supposedly 18, which means they are not seniors in high school - they have graduated. Kids who aren't 'slow' graduate from 12th grade when they are 18.

I really loved the episode!! I know that some people favor Stefan, while others are rooting for Damon, but I see things in a different perspective. Nobody ever CHOOSES Damon. He never gets the chance to feel like the girl he loves feels the same way about him. He deserves that chance. In season two both Katherine AND Elena told him that it would always be Stefan. Truthfully he only wants somebody to love, in my opinion.

Loved this episode, felt so bad for Stefan, he tried so hard not to hurt Elena. I think Michael is the one who made the originals into vampires. Elijah said his family was human once, so someone had to have turned them, so when he found out that Klaus was part werewolf, he was the one who put the curse on him. I believe he is much more than just another vampire, maybe a fallen angel?
@Rose I totally agree with you about the biased is this review. I am a huge Stefan and Elena fan but I like Damon too and I do agree that everyone is so quick to forget how much of a dick Damon was in the begining but now that he is in love with Elena we are all suppose to swoon over him and completely write off Stefan? WTF? I don't care what Stefan does it is not worse than anything Damon has done although it does look like Stefan was a worse vampire then Damon was in his day. Still Stefan does love Elena and the only reason he is acting the was he is is because he is under Klauses compulsion. I don't know what they are going to do to make things good between Elena and Stefan again but I hope they do get it back to the way it should be in my opinion and that is Stefan and Elena together! Also I just have to say I'm in love with Matt I think he is totally unappriciated on this show and I was glad to see him have a storyline all his own this week. I wish it wasn't with Vicki because I w

Damon selfishness has never been in question. However it was Elena that open that door. Kissing Damon is a bigger betrayal, than what Damon does. After all he promised his brother a life of misery. Also its clear you relate to Stefan as I do. Lets hope Rebekah is willing to fight off her brother. So Stefan has a real shot at some loyalty in his life. Also the triangle of S,D, and E needs to end as its really getting old. So Damon and Elena sounds good so the show can move forward. After last night plenty of places to go with a better view.

I agree with Bill completely. Stefan has sacrificed everything for Elena AND Damon and that's the reason Stefan's now in the position that he is. And you're suggesting Damon and Elena now get together and forget about the 1 person who did everything for them and he's the only reason they are both still alive???? So stupid. That would make this show really lame...

October 14th, 2011 3:46 PM
I cant believe it didnt get a mention in the review but the most noticeable part of the episode was the Stelena interaction. I loved how they showed the fight between Stefan's power lust for blood and his love for Elena. Brilliant show of the strong bond that these two share.. It was amazing. I also enjoyed how he had stabbed himself with the stake to stop himself for taking Elena. It was powerful and dynamic. Klaus' compulsion is a great trick.
However, we should all remember why Stefan is doing this - to save his loved ones. The only reason he killed those two kids was because otherwise Klaus would have hurt Elena. The Delena scene was sweet but it didnt really grow on me much because I have seen it before. Damon risking all for Elena- been there, seen that! I must say I am neither a Delena or a Stelena fan. I am a FORWOOD fan.. and it was such an emotional upheaval for Forwood. I cant believe that Tyler was about to die. I would have cried if that happened. Caroline and Tyler wer

It is hilarious how biased towards Delena the entire TVF team. Its your choice and its fine. But bring on some diversity. It makes a better read. I remember reading how Stefan only loved Elena because he was compelled to forget Rebecca and look how that turned out and today's Sorry, Stefan. I know you couldn't control it, but it's hard to maintain a relationship after killing two innocent students in front of your girlfriend in the high school gym, only to later drink the blood from her neck. It's almost never happened. just made me laugh. Seriously dude, are we watching the same show. Damon killed Vicki for fun, killed her brother Jeremy and she still forgave him.
I , for one, am not a Delena or a Stelena shipper but this bias is really just boring.Anyway a good episode. Though there were so many loose ends... like you pointed out. I 'm sure TVD will tie them all in good time.

Saw the episode a few minutes ago..and i swear i never see anything better..how should this season end up for us all, when it`s just so heartbreaking by now..LOVE EVERY WORD BETWEEN DAMON AND ELENA..
When she asked him with all this feelings in her face about where he was, and he answered that he shouldn`t have left, and than go on with the promise to never leave her again..if i never sat in the Damon-Elena-boot before..now i`m in..
Isn`t it all that we dream about..that a man, even that he is far beyond from being perfect, is fighting for us, against himself, and all the enemys around..
Please forget Elena, Damon..and go on with me...lol..
Love Bonnie for telling Matt, that he`s the only one who has the chance for a normal life..love the plot that the original with lied to Niklaus, that he has to kill the doppelganger..love Stefan for turning in such a badass jerk..Love Damon for resisting Katherine sexual attack..
Love Niklaus, because he`s really bad and not in the need to be s

I stated that magic had nothing to do with Jeremy seeing ghosts, not that Bonnie did not bring him back with magic. He did get brought back to life by magic, but what matters is that he DIED FOR REAL, unlike Alaric and Elena, which is why Matt can also see ghosts now because he DIED. Your post doesn't even deserve a reponse but I might as well to do it to show some stupid your post is. It helps to actually go to school instead of partying all the time.

I agree with you in the real life sense. If a woman was sleeping with her ex's brother, she's not going to get a great reputation. HOWEVER- you have to distance yourself from real life when watching these shows. In shows- girls DO sleep with their ex (who's trying to save their lives)' brother because, well, it's fake. While I don't think Delena ever COULD happen because of Stefan, just like Stefan and Rebekah can't happen because of Elena, it doesn't mean that people can't get caught up in the moment and "hotness" that is Delena, lol.

I couldn't disagree with you more about the Stefan/Elena/Damon love triangle. Stefan has sacrificed everything for Elena AND Damon. Killing those two people in the gym was all part of protecting Elena. The only reason he is in such a horrible situation is because he didn't want his brother to die. So now you want Damon and Elena to be together? Why? To teach Stefan a lesson that he should be more selfish next time he is thinking about sacfificing everything for the people he loves?? And what does that say about Damon? He would be stone cold dead if it hadn't been for his brother and he is going to repay him by sleeping with Elena, knowing full well how much Stefan loves her? I guess I come from a different generation. When I was the age of most vieweres of this show, which I am guessing is mid-teens, someone who would do that was referred to as a sorry jerk, or worse. I guess times have changed.
Damon: She's strong and crafty and you'll die. Elena: At least I'll die trying.
