    I disagree with just about everything in this article. I LOVE Caroline and Klaus. He has more depth as a character than Tyler and he's freaking sexy! And while I hated the Damon and Rebekah hook-up, I think it will help Elena realize her feelings for Damon so I say it was a good move. All in all, the beauty in this episode was amazing. The dresses were gorgeous. I thought it was a great episode. And I want MORE OF CAROLINE AND KLAUS!! :)

    i tottaly don't agree with this article.first of all the episode wasn't that i was expected to see but it wasn't bad episode and second seriously?that about klauroline is so wrong.i think in the beggining of their talking yes maybe
    we must to think they are not ever be together but the last scene caroline is in her bedroom it changes the facts.so i think you are so wrong.

    Are you kidding me about this episode being slow ....it is clearly leading to a grand season finally....when the show goes to fast people complain when the show goes to slow people complain
    Thats because it does not matter on if show goes fast or slow. It still doe snot do anything with its characters, but advance the "plot of the season". No character development, no buildup, no atmosphere buildup. Thats the problem.

    We literally have episodes filled with nothing. NOTHING important happened this season yet.

    if you have nada good to say don't say it and watch Nikita instead!!!!!! DAHHHHH..

    Why should we stop watching one legitimately bad CW show that rips off famous cult shows like Buffy and then start to watch even worse CW show that pretends to be one of legendary cult spy shows of century?

  4. Invested In Your Future

    There is a pretty simple solution for you: Stop watching the show.
    thats not how democracy works, kid. If everyone did that, there would be no constructive criticism.

    And this show is in sore need of being criticized for its many faults.

    Anyway... There wasn't much about this episode that I didn't like. I HATED Elena, for the answer she gave to Damon, BUT then again - This is EXACTLY what makes the show amazing!

    So, wait, Elena being caring one-dimensional mary sue is what makes this show "amazing"? What?

    I think this episode was epic! So tired of people complaining.. There is a pretty simple solution for you: Stop watching the show.

    Anyway... There wasn't much about this episode that I didn't like. I HATED Elena, for the answer she gave to Damon, BUT then again - This is EXACTLY what makes the show amazing!
    Then there was the Stefan/Elena-scene.. Also a very nice twist. Come on, we ALL know that Stefan loves her and misses her and BLA BLA BLA! But I think he is hot when he doesn't give a SHIT!
    And about Klaus and Caroline... I LOVE seeing Klaus with his inner battle.. It is SO obvious that he actually doesn't like to show these feelings to Caroline, because he IS a villain..

    All in all, this episode was brilliant.. And I would hate to see the Originals go.. I kinda love this family!

    Tyler said that he was out doing what Caroline's dad suggested.....U got it wrong buddy

    Awww...My little shipper heart was beating like craaaazy in some of this episode's scenes!
    I don't even care if it's rational or not for Caroline to feel a connection with Klaus and i know she's gonna end up with Tyler but the Klaroline chemistry is obvious and really great to watch. I'm only imagining Klaus leaving his last breath in Caroline's arms and i'm starting to feel a heartache!
    Now...I did have a problem with Elena's attitude in the episode...but i really don't mind Damon getting a little crazy.I had missed the dark, unpredictable, sarcastic Damon (although i do feel sorry his feelings got crushed). What i hated about Elena the most was her not protecting Elijah! You b@@@@!!!! Talk about ungratefulness!
    Elijah DON't DIE!!!!

    Yay!!!... from the extended promo... Damon is back to his season 3 default setting and trying to save Elena from a captured Elijah in the caves. With a Crazy Rebekah using gasoline and a match to subdue her movement. As for this evil and non-caring Damon he didn't last very long. Once he daggers that Elijah and a fanbase will be quite angry.

  9. Lynn

    Are you kidding me about this episode being slow ....it is clearly leading to a grand season finally....when the show goes to fast people complain when the show goes to slow people complain .....shut the f up everyone.....if you have nada good to say don't say it and watch Nikita instead!!!!!! DAHHHHH..
    And it's time to let Damon unleash hell oh ya ......we need someone else to go back to what he does best love kill sex and no remorse.......we are done with goody goody Damon.....it brings out his blue eyes when he is evil...BRING IT ON ALREADY....and as for Elena I would go away for a month lay low..drink margaritas in cuba...and then watch how Stefan reacts to that movement....he might just miss what he already has ...just saying

  10. Kira

    I may be alone with this but I loved both damon and rebecca and caroline and klaus, it's different, it's dangerous and it's hot!

    I really love Klaus trying to bea lady's man, and i wish for more scenes where klaus is persistent. Don't get me wrong, i don't want them to be together, but i just want them to be friend. If they are both friend, i think klaus would be less violent and express those hurt feelings, and i think Caroline of all people would understand. To be honest i love this new Damon, i have missed him for a very long time. Damon and Rebeccah! No one saw that coming. I think they will make a great match. I mean they've both been hurt... some how. 0 What is the OV mother thinking? I'm begining to love the Originals and IMO there is more to what she is saying and i hope it does not backfires.

    Continued...

    Which I think gets the bad side of this episode because in some ways Elena wants tag both brothers without making a declaration of intent. It may not require of 'love' but it certainly seems she is playing both sides. Sound familiar?

    B.)Damon regressing? Or not? I think it was only a couple episodes ago that Damon asked Elena if she trusted him... it was quite an instant Yes. But then we regress back to each having their own design plans.

    On a positive note, he's digressing meant that he should've lashed out badly, but not enough to not help Matt from being tortured slowly by Kol. Apparently, Elena doesn't know.

    C.) Caroline having feelings for Matt I think there was a lot of suitors for her this episode (Klaus using the same lines as Damon during the dance scene), but there was hints of Caroline jealousy concerns for Matt.

  13. Uncle Jackass

    In the Grill scene with Caroline, Elena discussed the topic of how she felt about both Stefan and Damon. For Stefan it was the lost an affection, but still expressing an underlying love for him. While I think she hinted that Damon's advances were more like a burden. The conflict was that Damon cared too much (or the brother who loved too much. Thus hinting a sense of Katherine).

    In terms of Regression, it seems many characters were undergoing a form of regression this episode (as a type of rewind and reset to factory default settings). Which as a result made me quite a bit angry for character development reasons.

    A.) Elena Falling for and Reaching for Stefan's Love Again: In the last season semi-final, Stefan discusses the one thing he has that Damon never will which was "Trust. This seemed to be a matter of allowing Elena to make her own choices even if those are mistakes or unwarranted for own safety. But I thought the idea of 'compromise' was a better form of earning trust rather than imposing one's actions and choice over another which both Elena and Damon seemed adamant in doing this episode.

    Continue...

  15. Invested In Your Future

    I am glad that the writers did not make Damon go on a rampage and regress his character.
    Except they did exactly that in the end of the episode.

  16. Emma

    I thought this episode was awful. I always hated Elena so I feel a bit better that so many people dislike her tonight. I am glad that the writers did not make Damon go on a rampage and regress his character. He was actually the good guy by saving Matt even though I keep wanting Matt to bite the dust. It's about time he slept with somebody, but yeah I agree that the hot hookup only happened so Elena will be all jealous and start owning up to her feelings abut Damon and try to reduce him to a lovesick puppy again when he's finally gonna start moving on from her. This is such predictable angst. I am already so tired of Klaus and the originals storyline. Please wrap this up but I don't mind if they kept Rebekah and Elijah but I think introducing too many originals are crowding out the likes of Jeremy, Tyler, Alaric and begrudgingly Bonnie. There's so many characters that you can put in an episode besides the main three.

  17. Lady Klaus

    some how i think this mystery killer problem (as Damon once put it) starts with a "kath" and ends with a "erine" :P

  18. nasne

    I have a serious problem with Elena's attitude this episode.. first she. as this review perfectly put it, trows Damon's love back in his face, then starts that awkward conversation with Stefan.. Really? that is how you treat both of them? It's not Elena that deserves better than the Salvatores, They deserve better then her!

    Not sure how I feel about Klaus and Caroline.. I get that this is a way to give Klaus more layers... but he has enough of those imo.

    And about the Damon/Rebekah hook-up, just a way to make Elena mad at Damon again, frankly I don't care. I hope that either Elena's attitude changes or that both Salvatore brothers find someone a whole lot better than Elena.

  19. VDluv

    I personally think the end scene is overrated...I prefer the Tyler/ Caroline scene....because there was nothing that erotic about it. it was just a "kissing" / pre-sex scene, which obviously they cannot show the actual sex scenes because, but still.

    Opening scene great! Didn't expect that to happen! but on other side it was just a scene used to show how much Elijah cares about Elena!
    Than came some lame brother I hate U stories, where Kol was being bitch number one( sexy bitch number one ).
    AND THAN THE BALL! USUALLY I'm NOT A SUCKER FOR DANCES, but THIS was AMAZING! it was an intense and well played event from damon introducing to Kol to Damon "trying" to kill Kol! The dance WOW, my heart flattered! Stelena is so HOT!
    After ball actions! As always I'm a sucker for Stelena scenes, and this is one was well played as always but where he pushed her into Damon's arms , what will result with her seeing him with Becca and pushing her in a different direction! I'm all Ramon, cause she is the Vampire Elena that Damon needs! And this is just Damon pattern!

  21. Yasmin

    The episode was amazing. I just love this show so much

  22. Mrs. Kol Mikaelson(=liarsunited)
    Rank: Leading Character

    Just as thought most of Originals are characterless cardboards.

    you are so wrong about KOL

    you know that

  23. Invested In Your Future

    Overall yet another episode that did nothing for storyline, nor character development(this show does not do character development). Season of The Fillers.

  24. Invested In Your Future

    Just as thought most of Originals are characterless cardboards.

    Becky now is completely ruined as character, shining the sexism of the show writers upon the world.

    Klaus is even bigger wimp.

    Elena is even more annoying. Can you care more, miss mary sue? She is the bella swan of tv shows

    DES triangle is boring.


    really show, really? Damon and Becky? Really show? This is trainwreck.

  25. originals

    They are one of the most exciting families on TV it's ridiculous if the writers are thinking of writing them off to shock people.They make for an intriguing watch.I hope the writers reconsiders It's like a dysfunctional family you want to be a part off.Elijah is swoon worthy,Rebekah is fierce and klaus is evil and the other originals are a must see.
