I know Elijah said that his father slaughtered the entire family of wolves once he discovered that Klaus was half-wolf, but I would love it so much if we would get one Original Wolf on this show.
Maybe the cure is to drink his or her blood. Yeah, it's far-fetched, and it's a show called the VAMPIRE Diaries, but I'd still like to see them play out the werewolf aspect a little more.
My favorite quote and scene was the funeral scene. perfect. anyone else notice elena wearing jeannas earrings? johns letter, alaric throwing the rose on jeannas grave, elena remembering her parents aswel.. and of course damon portrayed as a sort of black angel walking away not wanting to upset the girl he loves. & one last thing SKINNY LOVE
Biggest shock: Jenna's death. devastating. so quick for such a good character. john was a shock also, but just so perfect for him. Bonnie should have and could have finished off klaus herself
Katherine will take advantage of a heartbroken Alaric and theres our new couple
LOVE Caroline&Tyler together., so glad matts out of the picture, these two are perfect together,. still one of my fav scenes of the season is when they have their fight after caroline was attacked and she slams the door on his face. great chemistry
As far as Damon's survival,stefan will go off find a cure and leave Delena to finally realise theyre meant to be

My favorite quote and scene was when Bonnie was being a badass and she told Elijah to kill Klaus or she'll kill them both and Elijah told her she'd die and she was like I don't care. The way it happened was badass and if I was Elijah, I definitely would have been scared not even going to lie because she really took down Klaus a lot more than I thought, her nose didn't bleed, and I think she could have killed him on her own.
Biggest shock: Jenna's death. And I'll leave it at that. My jaw dropped to the floor I didn't even know what to say or do for 5 minutes and then I just started crying. She did go out like a G tho. Trying to kill Greta; i liked that. I wish she woulda taken a bigger chunk out of her neck. And can i add that Carissa is so slow... like when has a vampire in this show turned to dust? Like really? smh she must have not really been paying attention the vampire diaries
I thought the tethering spell was unique at first i was like wtf like thats so weird and i was kind

I wasn't so shocked by Jenna death but it was tough to watch. I like that she didn't go out begging for her life . I was shocked that they killed off John the only parental figure left for Elena and Jeremy. And I loved the funeral scene with Johns touching letter to Elena. I guess Elena can never question Johns love for her. As usually Caroline and Tyler scenes are unbelievable! I think a werewolf and vampire romance is something new and different and it needs to happen between these two. Can we get more screen time for these two as well?

I guess there has to be some logic with the fact that Damon got the bite while Tyler was still transforming( he wasn't fully transformed while biting Damon).This fact might help somewhere.As of now,Damon is just in danger coz of the bite.Ofcourse he's not going to die.

Damon does turn human in the books.The show is so much better than the books.The books are too..plain
that funeral scene was so tragic especially looking at all the people she has lost. We see Bonnie's reaction as Elena walks to her parents graves and that sums it up.
As for Katherine, she will get along just fine with Alaric
My favorite scene was the final one between the Salvatore brothers (with the funeral a close 2nd). The way Damon plays with his ring (contemplating his own demise?) & Stefan's reaction to his brother's bite. He goes through so many emotions in that few moments & his hand shaking as Damon walked away alone undid me. Ian & Paul give beautiful & subtle performances that make me forget I am watching fiction.
I predicted Jenna but was SHOCKED by John. It was so well done, too, I felt for a character I have always despised.
I was fine with the spell because I wanted Elena to stay human and I'm pretty sure Katherine is stuck in that apartment. At least for now. Though I think it's Katherine in the preview saying "you made the wrong choice" or Damon is hallucinating her.
I have not forsaken Wonder Boy yet but some how I became Team Tyler after this week. Not sure how that happened...I would love to see a juicy love triangle for Care.
@steve (poster) - I so want to see a drunk Katherine stuck in the apartment. It can be the new restaurant. It's safer and damn that girl has fun in there.
@Bobbie I've thought about what happens to Elena and Jeremy. Don't they need a guardian? If I recall, Elena just said she was only 17 the episode before this. Something has to change.
@dominique Yes, of course I watch. However, as I watch every vampire show available, sometimes I get them mixed up. I watch a lot of TV; and I'm not perfect.
@shirarose Yikes, the loss of Stefan's soul would just crush an already weakened Elena. If Damon turns human, that would help her, but she'd always be missing Stefan.
From what I understand, the series isn't following the books closely at all. Damon becomes human in the books? Does Stefan lose his soul, too? What the heck is in the books?
Hey Jess - thanks so much for enjoying us newbies to the round table. I adore VD and love contributing in any way I can. I feel a bit stupid, but I don't know what this meant "My heart caught when Elena told Jenna to shut it off so she wouldn't feel afraid anymore." What could she turn off to keep it from hurting? Yes, I still have things to learn about VD, in spite of watching every episode.

I have to ask... Carissa, do you even WATCH this show?
No, the vmapires don't turn to dust after they've been staked. They haven't been turning to dust for the past two seasons now.
No, Katherine is not forced to stay in that appartment forever, Klaus' compulsion on her is wearing off because of the vervain she's drinking after Damon gave it to her.

Just thought of something extremely exciting
in john's farewell letter, he mentioned how he wanted his grandchild to have the ring and specified that he wanted her to have grandchildren. Since vampires cant procreate, and damon turns human well i can see an opening for damon. Who knows he might end up being the father of elena's child. Well is this too big of a jump?

While I miss the old gang still, I'll admit the round table is getting better every ep.
This episde had all the rights amount of drama, thrill, twists and shockers (I who had prepared myself for Jenna's departure from the very begining still found myself gasping and clutching hand to mouth for full minute) just enought delena to make me happy but not dangerously crazy happy and emotion to make me sniffle but atleast not bawl as some very annoying episodes have a tendency to do.
My heart caught when Elena told Jenna to shut it off so she wouldn't feel afraid anymore- even though at this point I still had no clue what was going to happen- Jonh's letter was the most perfect goodbye I have ever heard to a child who needed inspiration, hope and courage to move on and Damon's grace and strength this ep has left me speechless and moved and just so proud.
Just get this character eternal appreciation.
The show has never followed the book but right now I'm not sure what direction it will go. In the book Damon gets turned into a human but its pretty much a toss up as to whether they'll go there.

Tyler and Caroline should defm get together! My fav scene was Jenna/Elena and at the funeral, Elena and Damons gaze aswell as Damon walking through the cemetery. Oh how he can not die, I started watching because of that character! Can't wait until the nxt delena episode!
Ok i commented this before but, Why would a potion that is meant to bring a human back to life, that does not work if vamp blood is in the system save a Vampire? And why the heck did they not give that to Jon? Would it have effected bringing Elena back? We dont know. Evidently a body count is more important then having parents.

What was your favorite quote/scene from the episode?
There were a lot of beautiful scenes in this episode. My favourites were: Jenna dying, Elena dying, Caroline and Tyler together on the couch, John dying/Elena waking up and lastly, the funeral scene. Can't decide which one was the most amazing.
Biggest shock: Jenna's death, John's death or Elijah bailing with Klaus?
Neither of them were shocking. For me, Jenna's death was expected, and it would have been a waste of potential to kill Klaus so soon. As a true John fan I was totally hoping that he would survive but I still had this sad feeling telling me he would die. It proved to be true.
Did the convenient creation of the "tethering" spell stretch the limits of believability - even for a CW show about vampires?
Ehhh... no? Why would it?
What's Katherine's next move?
Well Klaus isn't dead so she is stuck in Alaric's apartment. But I have a feeling she will find a way to get out soon enough.
I love this idea - "I'll embrace the popular theory Among some of Our readers and the elixir Say That Will Be Brought to allow him back after he dies, But in human form" - If this happens Damon will give something to Elena that Stefan can not.
@Vanessa, you really need to watch the episode! It was fantastic! It's probably up on CWtv.com by now. But to answer your question, no Elena was not turned, she is alive and still human. It's a lot to explain, much better to watch!

Since the synopsis says Stefan pays a terrible personal price trying to prevent a tragedy, I'm guessing whatever Stefan does to save Damon will result in the loss of his soul (and the return of bad Stefan...)

Elena : I just want to kill her. It's that simple.
