@Floraline, I have to say I didn't even think about Ric being evil when I suggested Bonnie turn evil. It's just those veins and that smile screamed EVIL when she tapped into Dark magic and after all the crap the vampires have put her through, it would be quite fitting. I don't quite remember how Willow turned evil, wasn't she addicted to magic or something? And then her girlfriend got shot? I don't want it to be because of addiction, I want her to choose to be against the vampires.
One random thought/question...shouldn't one of the brothers given Elena some blood to help her recover from the blood Klaus drained? I guess she couldn't collapse at the end if she did though...

@S.Waldorf
Asked myself the same thing. And I guess it's because even though they're not friends like in the Twenties, Stefan sees he was almost like Klaus. He could have been in the same position (well, not exactly, hybrid-original and everything): a lonely badass who lost his family in one way or the other. Remember Damon was avoiding Stefan - Rebekah and Elijah are doing the same thing.

I am so not ready to say goodbye to Klaus. I learned to love his presence. His badassness and soft side, I´ve fallen for the accent of all accents. But most of all - it was not the ending for Klaus. To just die like this? Without anyone missing him? To die in someone elses death? NO! He has to come back... And we´ve been given a way for him to do so. That little bitch called hope.
He can´t be a proper vilan - but I´ve kinda convinced myself that he can be another Damon. Joining the good side fot selfish reasons and getting affcted by their... Unity? Love? (becose there is nothing Klaus wants more)
I have a feeling that I´m gonna be sad no matter who Elena picks. I just like the idea of Salvator bros together too much.
I also have to say... I did miss the part where someone would be like "I can´t kill dark-Rick! What if the good one is still somewhere inside?"
Well this was a great episode! This show is awesome!
Bored Now do you realize how silly you are? You are always the first to post AND You post multiple times and every week it is the same thing, how much you hate the show BLAH BLAH BLAH. STOP WATCHING THE SHOW! There are shows that are recapped on here that I do not watch and do not waste my time reading etc.
Kol Devil in Disguise, are you and Bored Now related?

...nice try TVD, to sell me the idea that tv Elena is as special as book Elena...Not!
Still, can't help but have a few thoughts and questions at the end of this episode:
1. How the hell could Elena still a) walk, b) hang out and drink tequila with her friends, c) shove her caring speech down Jeremy's throat and finally d) be able to paint that room....after having lost like 3 liters of blood that day? Hello, she is such a skinny girl, loosing so much blood should have made her incredibly weak!
2. What the hell was happening to Bonnie's face when she was doing that spell?
3. I would say Elena collapsed because her system finally gave in to the stress and the fact that she lost so much blood, but why is TVD making it look more dramatic than it should?
4. haha, Matt thought he could take down Klaus too...
Anyway, next week - yay, Elijah is back..and Elena is going to crash on the bridge and fall into the water...is this the "big" finale twist?

WTF...is all I can say at the end of that episode...No,no,no,no,no,no,no,no...I may have issues with how Klaus was portrayed this season going from being really bad to being a simple tortured artist BUT he is the LAST TVD character I would want to die...Love him or hate him, he brought a lot into this show, and he is one of the two reasons I started watching this show, the other is Elijah, obviously.
Now onto the episode, I have to say I enjoyed a loooot more than like the previous 10. I loved the scenes where Klaus tried to get into the house, its was just so funny! Also the scene where I got to see everyone in action - from the Salvatores and Klaus fighting Alaric, Elena cutting her neck (which almost made me hope she would go further), and of coarse the brothers having that chat in the car UNTIL Stefan said Elena was a special girl - I have my own views when it comes to this "triangle" but I will never ever call Elena a special girl...nice try TVD, to sell me the idea that tv El

@fenn...because she first grabs her head as if in extreme pain..like what would happen with an aneurysm or something.
Also, did anyone else catch the thing that I think Bonnie said about witches not being able to truly make an immortal creature...that there is always a spell to undo it? Could this mean that one of vamp bros can eventually become human to be with Elena at series end??!?!

Why is everyone commenting on Elena's nose bleed a result of her fainting and knocking her head? I think what they are (the writers) are trying to say is the nose bleed is THE reason why she fainted, so it must be something in her which is what Klaus might have done while taking her blood. Perhaps she already has been fed vamp blood, and already died (she dozed off, rem?) and now she's transitioning? Hah.
@Alex, they didn't kill, kill Klaus...they did what Abby did to Mikael by stopping his heart to stop blood from flowing...they dessicated (which basically means "to dry up")...they dried him out so he was just a vampire shell right now, kind of like what happened to the tomb vampires that we saw in Season 1. The only way to actually kill Klaus is the stake, and that is clearly not an option now that we know he is responsible for all of our favorite vampire characters!
First off I am shocked but happy that Matt gave the episode 4.9/5 stars! The last few weeks he has given it alot less!
The show is always a 4 plus star for me and last night episode was so great 5/5!
Okay so I must be missing something, how did Tyler not die? They killed Klaus.
So Alaric will be around for the foreseeable future as he and Elena are linked and not only does one die if the other does but they also feel each others pain. We all know Elena will be alright but it may be touch and go if she is unconscious all night.
I found it odd that Damon wanted Jeremy's ring, if Jeremy would have given it to him then he would have died and not come back when Bonnie stopped his heart. Also what what happened to Bonnie when she was stopping Jeremy's heart, her veins looked freaky and then it seems that her magic stopped.
I liked the car moment with Damon and Stefan and I found it very fitting the conversation Stefan had with Klaus that all the stuff Klaus is doing is just bring th
And that awesome scene was followed by another awesome broment in the car... Where Damon actually acknowledges that it's a bit crazy that "all this" is over one girl. And they both acknowledge that it's worth it because they feel she is special. Then Damon points out the obvious....the choice is only for Elena's lifetime, so they can get through this (though, do either of them think they will want to be with Elena as she grows old?)... And they both resolved to leave the other alone if she chooses one of them. That is also why I don't think Elena will choose right now...she can't lose them.
Lastly, I think what several commenters said about Elena hitting her head and her bloody nose being the result of a brain injury is true... not sure where that will lead to next week, but it was a great way to end the episode on a bit of a cliffhanger!
Yay for Jeremy in this episode, offering himself up to save his sister. I was a bit confused why Damon wanted him to take off the ring, though...I mean, if Bonnie couldn't restart his heart and he wasn't wearing it, he'd be DEAD dead. I know the ring may result in Evilaric 2.0, but why would Damon be so quick to risk Jeremy's actual death? And, I also like Jeremy's little freak out early on in the episode that they need "one vampire free day".
Finally, I loved the doorway scene with Elena, Stefan and Damon. We all know the triangle isn't really going anywhere (it's the premise of the show, per Julie Plec, so everyone can stop complaining), but it was nice to hear Elena return to her formally redeemable character by admitting she was being selfish and explaining why. The discomfort and sadness on the brother's faces was so great...just an awesome scene.
I was also pleasantly surprised to see that they actually explained why Abby didn't have to be invited into the house...nice job with making sure to have some continuity!
I LOVED the scene where Klaus is throwing things into the house...so funny and, in an odd way, playful...
Candice Accola did a great job as tortured Caroline and, while I didn't get why she could so easily move once freed due to the vervain, I thought it was a nice moment between her and Klaus in the hall.
I love, love, loved that they explained why Esther used Elena's blood in the spell and that they tied Elena to Alaric. I do have one minor question...I know that that if Elena dies, Alaric dies...but if Alaric dies first, will Elena die? If so, it looks like dessication spells are back on the table...
After weeks of worrying that the writing on my favorite show was losing all of it's previous magic, this episode made me feel redeemed. Sure, thee were one or two minor, minor things that failed logic (Elena drinking after losing so much blood, Tyler being able to overtake Klaus), but who cares?!?! Seriously BEST EPISODE OF THE SEASON!
I know we will all miss Klaus but, for a show to be intriguing, there has to be the threat of losing a major character. I'm not sure he was ever meant to be a show regular. It makes sense that he would be gone..for now anyway. And kudos to the writers for remember to tie in past mythos by revisiting the dessication spell that bound Mikael.
@Charlotte..Joseph Morgan hinted in an interview that he was not confirmed for Season 4 and, if Klaus does return, it would not be in the same way. I think Klaus is, for now, a goner...
@Double: Klaus presumably turned "scary Mary" who turned Rose, who turned Katherine, who turned Stefan and Damon....Katherine turned Caroline...Klaus turned Tyler...all linked to Klaus.

I loved this episode it was amazing and I can't wait for the next episode. This episode was kinda sad at points but happy at others. When they stopped klause's heart I was kinda sad because even though he was the villain all he wanted was to be loved and be with someone he thought as family and the look in his eyes when they killed him was shock and sadness. I loved at the end Elena and her family celebrated even though things wernt that great all they did was kill klaus which was good and something to celebrate about but they still got a lot more to do.

This review was weird. It didn't really mention what actually happened in the episode. Like how Klaus took Elena and was draining her blood. And I think it should be mentioned that when Tyler showed up Elena told him to 'Tell Stefan'. I think that even though that was small, it was noteworthy.
SO next week we see Elijah!!! I am SOOO happy but really worried. PLEASE don't kill him!! Maybe he will be the one to save Elena from the truck after Rebekah causes her and Matt to go off the Wickery Bridge? That would be a very nice twist.
I'm over the whole love triangle. I like Stefan and Damon together WAY too much. I don't know that they have ever been this close?
And please don't let Alaric convince Jeremy to side with him! Ugh.

This was a beautiful episode, very well put together! All of Damon's non-stop humor, Klaus' clever sarcasm and interest for his special lady vamp Caroline, Tyler's freedom from Klaus finally revealed, Elena not avoiding the brothers anymore, expressing what she feels and the Salvatore Brothers making ammends after a century and a half! I hated to see Klaus in that state but of course, this is not the end of Klaus. I loved the agreement made by Damon and Stephan on if one brother is picked the other leaves town and Damon made it perfectly clear that the one leaving would not be happy with the other for an extremely long amount of years. I loved his comment on after years of being away, the brother will return and this brother will have forgiven the other by then. The Salvatore brother bond was awesome as always when they are getting along. I have a feeling this was the scene fans had been waiting on between the two and it was a beautiful reunion for them with The Act Of Forgiveness
Damon: She's strong and crafty and you'll die. Elena: At least I'll die trying.
