With less than a week to go until The Vampire Diaries Season 5 kicks off, The CW has released the first clip from Thursday's "I Know What You Did Last Summer."

And it features Elena and Damon in a bathtub. Really, what else do you need to know? Watch now:

The opener picks up three months after events from the May finale, with Delena going stronger than ever.

But, despite the allure of a nearly naked Damon Salvatore in her bathroom, Elena does, indeed go off to college. And she and Caroline are in for quite a shock when they arrive at Whitmore.

What else can fans expect from the premiere? A threesome, two deaths and Silas on the rampage.

Tune in next Thursday and we'll meet you in our Vampire Diaries forum for a full discussion of the episode.
