Kleenex Stock Will Rise: "Do Not Go Gentle" is such
an apt title for this episode as the writers definitely did not go
gentle on our emotions and tear ducts. It's such a poignant and
emotional hour for more than one character. One scene in particular,
which brings almost all of the series regulars (minus
Joseph Morgan)
together, which is pretty rare on this show, will have you grabbing the
tissues and pausing the show to collect yourselves. Did we mention
there's no dialogue in the scene? Plec says the scene was almost cut by
the network (time constraints), but she fought to keep it in as its "the
heart and soul" of the entire season. Keep fighting the good fight,
girl!
We'll Learn What Makes Ric Tick: Many fans have been wondering how exactly the ring turned Alaric (
Matt Davis,
who steals the hour) into this dark, vampire-hating ass-hat, and the
show will answer that question in detail tonight. One small tease? Let's
just say Esther (
Alice Evans) and Evil Ric have some kind of history. P.S. Esther gives up control of Rebekah's (
Claire Holt) body pretty early on in the episode. Boo!
The Other Love Triangle: Tyler (
Michael Trevino) is still pretty pissed about Klaus (
Joseph Morgan) trying to mack on his girl (Tyler's words, not ours, since you know, we're not a high school football player) Caroline (
Candice Accola),
but he's forced to grin and bear it as he doesn't want Klaus to know he
broke the sire bond. Cut to Klaus attempting to woo Caroline while
dancing and Tyler sulking from the sidelines. Ouch! So does Klaus make
any progress? We'll have to check back in a year or two...or 50.
Bonnie Finally Gets Some Lovin'! Yes, the show's resident witch has finally found a nice, normal guy in Jamie (Robert Ri'chard), who like Oz (Seth Green) on Buffy the Vampire Slayer,
adapts extremely well to Bonnie and her friends' pretty insane
extracurricular activities (#witchgirlproblems?). While the two share a
steamy kiss, Bonnie also leans on Jamie in a moment of emotional
exhaustion and it was nice to see the vulnerable side of her.
Stelena Steals Delena's Thunder: What preview is complete without some teases to satisfy the shippers? While Damon (
Ian Somerhalder) and Elena (
Nina Dobrev)
had their moment (boy, did they!) last week, tonight's episode is all
about Stefan and Elena reconnecting while acknowledging they can never
go back to how things were. Elena invites Stefan to be her date for the
dance (yes, Damon is jealous) and their relationship is stronger than
it's been all season by episode's end. Without saying too much, after
having Elena never give up on him all season, Stefan is finally able to
return the favor. (Gee, could we vague that up for ya?) Elena's decision
is not getting any easier, folks!
