TVD BREAK ON THROUGH: where Damon did not fail despite everything...

[x5vale]

-Meredith and Alaric shared an understanding, just like Damon and Elena...just saying...

-Oh Ric, what is the ring doing to you?

-Elena, drop this attitude please. You are not beliavable and Damon is the right person, because he knows how to control his blood needs.

-I can't help, this witch thing bothers me, I found their self pity attitude very boring.

-During the whole very woman like "nice" chat between Sage and Rebekah, which I very much enjoyed, I couldn't help but thinking what Damon was thinking. How can I take some adavantage from Sage's hate for Rebekah and Rebekah's soft spot for Damon? Oh my boy :)

-Damon being a sexy!snarky!sex machine makes me explode. Seriously. It's all about his body language and Ian's voice...*thud*

-This is the Caroline I like. Give me more, please.

-He didn't kill Damon, because he does love him...of course.

-"own it, live it, love it". SO MUCH THIS!

-Looks like Bonnie will have a new love interest...

-Abby needs some serious help.

-Damon dancing....please stop...there's so much a girl can take at 8 in the morning...

-Damn Damon, you are mean...if Rebekah weren't a bitch herself, I could seriously feel sorry for her. Actually I do, exactly for the reasons Sage stated so well.

-Sorry, Abby and Bonnie bore me...

-Damon sex in the shower...to get to know what Rebekah is up to. Sage powers are great.

-Good Damon, you are smart pretty boy!

-Sage is truly obsessed with Finn, isn't she? Damon better not to trust her.

-Jeremy might be in danger...

-"I'll start with Finn"...so HOT!

-Damon babysitting Ric...so cute.

-"She'll be fine Ric"....awwwww....

-Awww I want Bonnie to be around her friends. I like her more.

-Jer and Elena...*melts*

-TEAM SALVATORE FTW!!! Damon was smart..."I sold my rage"....eheheheh he was fooling Sage :)

Not one of the best episodes of the season, but it was enjoyable and a lot of stuff happened.

Characters:

-Alaric
I wasn't one of those who was in love with Psycho!Alaric. I do prefer old Ric better. I like that he is protective of the people he loves and that he cares, beyond his beliefs, about vampires as friends. He sees the persons behind them, he was able to actually see Damon and care for him. Now I think we will have old Alaric/Damon friendship back.

-Meredith
-This was the first episode where I actually liked her. I do agree with Psycho!Ric btw. She doesn't kill vamps, because she wants their blood to heal people. So I guess what the show is trying to say is that none can be easily judged. Everyone has a darl side.

-Rebekah
She is a bitch who only watches out for herself, but that is in desperate need of some love and attention. She wanted to believe that Damon was interested in her (because I also think she likes him), but I think deep down she knew Damon was faking it.
I feel sorry for this girl, life has not been kind to her...but if she wants to beloved, she needs to connect to people, excatly like Klaus and so far they have both failed.

-Sage and Sage/Damon
I liked her, but I didn't trust her. It was easy to understand that she was going to sell Damon out to save Finn. Her obsession is totally unhealthy (very similar to Damon's one for Kath), but she was a good teacher for Damon. So they weren't friends and I didn't expect them to be..but I wonder how many times Damon has been disappointed and failed by people he trusted/loved?
Btw, I loved the interaction between Damon and Sage; the actors did a good job and I loved to see the tension. It was a game and both of them were enjoying it.

-Stefan and Stefan/Elena
I am glad to see that little Stefan is winning his battle and he his listening to his brother advice. I am also content with how he treated Elena. She was harsh and judgy, while she had to understand that Stefan can't just be what he used to be..because that Stefan was just denying his real self. Somewhere between the ripper and saint Stefan, there is the real Stefan. This is the journey I am eager to see.

-Damon and Damon/Elena.
It amazes me how this character can be flawless, being flawed.
In this episode he was around Ric taking good care of his best friend, he was mean to Rebekah, he trusted Sage and then he was set up and was willing to kill her. He was happy for his brother and he stood up to Elena, who was, imo, totally wrong this time about the control thing. He connected the dots and he found the weapons to kill the Originals.
So, is there any other character in this show who is in pretty much in everything that happens? No. He is the one.
Thoughts on Damon/Elena: Elena was wrong saying that Damon was not the right person to teach Stefan how to control his blood addiction. Damon knows exactly how to. For two reasons:a) he has learned it in the first place; 2) he knows Stefan better than anyone else.
The point is that since Dangerous Liaisons every time Elena talks to Damon, she says one thing and she means something about the two of them. In the last episode when she told him not to push people away, she was talking about herself, because Damon actually is not pushing anyone away...now she should just admit that if she had listened to him in 3.14, nothing would have happened. Abby would be still human, Damon and Elena would be still close.
She wanted to play the hero and she messed up with things. How naive was of her to believe that Elijah wouldn't have found out the truth? I think that deep down Elena knows it and the more she keeps Damon away, the less she has to really question her actions.
I like so much her journey. It's subtle and fascinating.
Excatly like I am enjoying Damon's one. Damon, who is able to get the best from the worst without losing his aplomb. Damon who is still by Ric's side even if he had treated him like shit lately. Damon who is there to catch his brother when he falls.
Damon who doesn't care to treat an Original like Rebekah, to get what he wants...and I bet he will pay for it.
So yeah....Damon wins. Always.

-Elena
As I said, I like her journey. She is a young woman who is growing up in a dark world and has to make choices that sometimes are the oppositi of what she believes in.
I loved how awkward she was aroudn Bonnie, waiting for her to take the first step. She was respecting her grief and her personal space. I love Elena with her friends.
I also loved the little phone-call between her and Jeremy. How he looked free and happy, while she was burdened with the heavyness and darkness that her life has become.
I would have slapped her both with Damon and Stefan, but I do get her attitude. I see why she is like that and she couldn't be any different. It's totally unsafe for her to accept that Stefan is not what she thought him to be and that Damon is exactly what she wants him to be. She loves Damon for who he is, because Damon has always been himself around her. There's no camouflage. Damon is there, like he is, and she can't shake him.
She just needs more time to accept that she is changing and that her moral values have changed. Not easy, but Elena will get there.

One more thought on the Originals and why they have to be killed (even if I don't want to).
The only one who has to be killed imo is Klaus, but since Esther linked them together, they would all die...do I like this? No. I'd rather have them off from Mystic Falls than have them dead..but Klaus has to die, unless he gives up forever to his hybrid army plan.
Klaus told Damon and Stefan that Elena would have been better off without them. The reason behind this it's that Klaus wants Elena to have children. He wants the doppelganger blood line to never end. This would be a curse for Elena, for her descendants. That's why the Salvatores want him dead. They don't trust him and he has never said that he was giving up his plans, so yeah...that's why he needs to die...unless he changes, for real.

That's all!



Tonight, SPN....let's hope for the best!!! HAPPY FRIDAY!!!
