1. Favorite scene
The confession. It brought up so many important facts: Stefan still cares, Stefan is a multi-layered badass anti-hero, Elena can't choose, and Stelena needs a proper breakup. Oh and that Stefan needs a new love interest (Katherine anyone?)
2. Stelena + kiss
Since it wasn't a Stelena kiss, yeah. Even though he expected it to happen, it still hurts to know that you brother violated the bro(ther) code. This time neither was even compelled.
3. Stupidity
All of them. But this ep shows that Alaric needed to get some realllly badly. Why else would someone divulge a get-out-of-being-murdered-by-supernaturals jail card if it wasn't to ultimately bang them to oblivion?
@Mel:i wish i could say the same to you and just say "i don't care about stelena anymore" not "nobody care about stelena anymore" coz there are some people who still like may be not the same as before but there are alot of people who think that bad ass stefan is more fun and is better off without elena.I know majority of TVD fans are delena shippers and that's fine,i have nothing against that.

1. Elijah. Were there any other options?
2. Definitely. I adore Stefan and that had to hurt no matter how much he was pushing her away. Paul was amazing in that scene.
3. Alaric telling fell all his dirty little secrets. You don't tell pychos all your biz and certainly don't expose your weakness in the form of a supernatural ring. I wanted to smack him.
4. Seriously? Elijah!
5. Not the slightest.
6. Men...

@Stefelena: just deal with the fact that people love Damon and disagree with you. I also agree with Annie. Elijah was the best part of a lacking ahow this week

Question 1: ELIJAH!! As soon as I saw him I started screaming with joy (and I didn't stop for several minutes).
Question 2: Yes, the guy is in love with her and she just told him she kissed his brother. Of course I feel bad for him, doesn't mean I didn't love THE KISS though.
Question 3: Alaric and Meredith. She uses vampire blood. His best friend is a vampire. And he doesn't even know her, why would you tell her about the ring? I wonder if this was just a way for the writers to move the plot forward.
Question 4: ELIJAH!!!!
Question 5: In a way, maybe. But really, no. Everyone makes mistakes, some more some less, it doesn't necessarily make a person better than another.
Question 6: I'm a woman, it's my duty to say child birth.
Annie i think both stefan and damon has a dark past and they both have their good and bad sides.I don't think as of now people are pointing out the negetive side of damon coz he's changed into a better person,stefan has a dark past way morethan damon,he was a ripper for almost half a centuary,but damon too kill for fun,he may not be a ripper but he kills as well and remember uptill now we doesn't know what damon has done for the last 145 except may be trying to get kat out of the tomb and you know its very easy to forget someone's bad actions when he's done some preety good things like wise its very easy to forget someone's good deed's when he did something terrible which is exactly what's happening between damon and stefan.I don't think elena is better than the salvatores,each one of them has his own flaws.

Team Elena vs Team Originals perhaps?
Or will Elijah join forces with team Elena ? We will see...
annie i gotta say they've both had bad pasts. and you cant defend one and blame the other, honestly i think stefan's 'bad past' makes his character more interesting, his undieing love for elena through all of that and her exeptance of what he was just proves how perfect and completly in love they are. and stefan killing people for fun happened and damon did the same, but he also changed vicky because he was..bored?! an eternity of bloodlust and pain is worse than death in my opinion, it can be good if your strong enough to control yourself, most people aren't.

Elijah should really upset Klaus by inviting him to his wedding ....to Elena. Speaking of which, can't wait to see Elena's reaction to her favourite Original's return, after all he did make her go through the whole ridiculous 'sacrifice' and didn't even keep his word to her, (forget them eloping then). He deserves a clip round the ear from his favourite doppelganger (if he doesn't break her arm first) BTW nice haircut.

I agree with "Annie" and the episode was pretty bad by TVD standards. Everywhere and Tyler should want to break free for himself not anyone else and I like Forwood. I also prefer the slightly bad Stefan, much better then the puppy dog follower....he's my fave without Elena and she is better with Damon

Q1: Elijah's comeback of course! When i saw the dagger in Damon's hand his return was kind of expectable but he still nailed that scene!
Q2:Yeah...kind of... He sacrificed everything (he even denyed his humanity) in order to save his brother and protect his girl...He must feel kind of betrayed and like he has noone left by his side.( Damn! And i don't even like Stephen)
Q3: Alaric for sure! Mer screams psycho bitch from miles away...
Q4: Certainly not the last! I liked badass Stephen... Now he'll go all softy again!
Q5: I think it was the most stupid thing Stephen ever said! Who cares if she's better or not! When you fall in love with sb it's his imperfections that you MUST adore the most.
Q6: I don't know.Only when Tyler gives birth we'll know for sure!

Eric! I love you for standing up for Damon! He's been the true hero this season, though some don't recognize it. People always bring up Damon's awful past, but think about Stefan's past. It may be offscreen, but he mangled and killed people. FOR FUN. People seem to forget that. And Damon is so wonderful because of his depth and character evolvement - and that fact that he's reckless and impulsive and snarky but ultimately driven by love.
Not because he's hot, everyone. Sheesh. Everyone on the show is hot.

Just to say one little thing about Tyler. I am not against Forwood at all but I think it's bad that the writers are presenting it as he's going it for Caroline or at least that everyone think he does. I mean, he should do it because he wants to be free from Klaus, not (only) because of Caroline...
But, apart from that: Elijah's back!! YYEEAHHH!!

Damon is not a good guy. Or a bad guy. Stefan is not a good guy. Or a bad guy. Elena, according to the writers, is an angel.
There is such thing as multi-dementional characters, which Stefan and Damon were created to be. Vampires can NOT be completely good, however there's no saying they can't be completely bad.

I love how easily it is for people to forget the bad that Damon did at the beginning of the series. They now think he is all high and mighty. Do I think damon has changed for the better? Yes. Should you automatically forget about all the people he killed at the beginning of the series just because he has "Changed"? NOOOOO!
Elena, Stefan, and Damon, along with everyone else in their world, are ON THE SAME LEVEL!!! Nobody is better than the other. Every single one of them has their faults.
Get over your infatuation of Damon just because he is hot and look at the character. The layers that involve his character. There is good and bad with in him just like everyone else. It does not make him better than Elena, it might make he a better bad ass, but not a better person all around.
ps not a Damon hater. Just a hater for people who over look everything bec a person is "hot"

i was having my doubts about the show during the last few episodes but they really stepped up. very well done, i have nothing to criticise
I've been following the blogs for a while now and for the first time, I've decided to put in my two-cents here because I just don't agree with some of the comments about Elena and how she fessed up to Stefan:
I must disagree with those of you who took offense with how she phrased it and implied that she was being less than truthful. In her mind, the only confession to make to Stefan is the fact that she kissed Damon back. She feels guilty about having kissed back. Both of them knew that Damon loves her. There's no need to tell Stefan that Damon initiated the kiss. Stefan obviously knew immediately after Elena's confession that Damon did kiss her and hence he took a swing at Damon towards the end of the show. I'm not sure how others could've interpreted these series of events otherwise.

1. Fav scene!
Elena telling Stefan about the kiss, and knocking Jamie out! This show is a wicked game! And Stefan showed he still loved her if it wasn't the case he wouldn't care.
2. Feeling bad?
why? he brought it on himself! He left them he could've keep her by his side, but he pushed her!
3. No comment!
4. Elijah, Bill or season1 stefan?
all of them. Elijah will change the whole dynamic of the story, Bill kicked Tyler hard and as a Stelena fan I say come back Stefan!
5. Elena?
what can i say!? Of course she is! She hasn't the twisted mind both of them showed during this 3 season! But in Serbia we say U are like the peoples Ur with so! She isn't sunshine!
6. Birth!!!
