The Vampire Diaries 5/12/11

Hey Junkies!!

This week’s episode was the SEASON FINALE for The Vampire Diaries!! I really am going to miss it this summer. It’s wrapping up all of the drama from this season and putting a final word to Damon and his health. So here’s the low-down:

The final episode opened up with Elena staring at Jeremy asleep and feeling remorse from the past events. She goes into Jenna’s old room and closes the door behind her. Damon appears in her house and he begs for her forgiveness because he fed her his blood.  He goes back to his house and takes out a bottle of alcohol and drinks a glass. He stands in front of his stain glass window and burns himself until Stefan saves him. Stefan drags him to the cellar where Elijah was held for a while and states that he has Bonnie searching for a cure.

We then move to Klaus and Elijah in a forest where Klaus wakes up two days after the Sacrifice was broken. Elijah presses Klaus into honoring his agreement for finding their family. Stefan calls Alaric, who is drunk at the Grill, and tells him Damon is dying. Elena and Jeremy meet Caroline at a screening of Gone With The Wind in order to forget what has happened. Stefan and Bonnie are at the witch’s burning site and Bonnie tells Stefan that she’s gotten a connection to Emily. Emily then begins to speak through Bonnie and says that she doesn’t want to help Stefan find a cure for Damon’s wolf bite. Bonnie, after being abused internally, says that Klaus is probably the only one who knows about a cure for Damon.

Carol Lockwood is out of the hospital and is curious about Sheriff Forbes’s take on the vampire situation. Stefan tells Elena about Damon’s situation and she freaks. Damon has a hallucination and second-guesses Katherine’s sincerity. Stefan goes to Alaric’s where, after seeing Katherine is held hostage thanks to Klaus. Klaus stabs Stefan and Stefan tries to make another agreement. Alaric visits Damon and has a hard time with him. Elena goes to visit Damon and is captured by Sheriff Forbes. Sheriff Forbes “talks” with Damon, who then slams her against the wall violently. Back in the park with Bonnie and Caroline, Jeremy takes the lead and goes to look for his sister. At Alaric’s, Klaus taunts Stefan about his past and how he used to be murderous and Klaus reveals that his blood is the cure for wolf bites. Damon is found at the Gone With The Wind screening and he searches for Elena. Elena, being held captive by Sheriff Forbes, begs to go with her to get Damon. Sheriff Forbes finds Damon at the Grill and, trying to shoot him, shoots Jeremy in the chest instead. Caroline tries to give him her blood to revive him, as his ring won’t work. However, she was too late so he dies.

Then, we move back to the Grill where Jeremy is taken back with Bonnie and Caroline. Back at Alaric’s, Klaus decides to take Stefan with him on his killing spree. Klaus provokes Stefan further to where he pretty much is putting himself in the same situation as the past. At the witch’s burning site again, Bonnie tries to revive Jeremy but the witches are angry with her. She calls for Emily, who doesn’t reply, and weeps, declaring how much until Jeremy comes back to life. Elena breaks free of the Sheriff’s office and finds Damon who hurts her. She comforts him after he goes crazy while clutching her bleeding neck. Back at the Grill, Caroline and her mother have another talk about her situation and Sheriff Forbes hugs her back. Jeremy tells Bonnie that he feels different but she dismisses it. Elena nurses Damon and stays with him “until the very end” and he says he is extremely sorry. Stefan goes through several bags of blood and seems to still resist Klaus’s temptations. Damon and Elena have a reconnection and she forgives him for what he did. She begins to fight back tears of remorse and says she loves him and kisses him. Katherine shows up with a bottle of Klaus’s blood, the cure, and says that they shouldn’t expect Stefan around for a long time. Klaus takes Stefan along when he flees and Stefan returns to his true, murderous self. Back at the Gilbert’s, Jeremy wakes up and sees something moving in the hall, he goes out and sees Anna and Vicki, alive, but as ghosts.

That’s it for TVD this season, Junkies, and I am dying to see the next one.

Until the fall,

The Vampire Diaries 5/5/11

Happy Cinco de Mayo Junkies!!

Yes, the new episode of TVD is on a Mexican national holiday. Tonight's episode was titled "The Sun Also Rises", indicating some kind of scary thing for vampires. After viewing the preview for this episode, it was revealed that the Sacrifice ritual was going to begin in this episode.
     It opened with Matt and Caroline tending to, actually running from, Tyler in wolf form. Then Damon and Katherine discuss Damon's new wolf-bite. Damon starts to tell Katherine about all of the stupid decisions she's made for her own protection. Then back at the site of the Sacrifice, Jenna tells Elena how she turned and begins to freak out. Elena tells her that she's in transition to becoming a vampire and she freaks out. Greta forms a circle around Elena so she won't try and save Jenna. Jenna becomes a full blown vampire after she drinks Greta's blood.
     Then in the cellar of the witch's burning site, Jeremy and Bonnie bond looking for a cure for Elena so that she won't have to become a vampire after she dies. Elijah, Stefan, and Alaric go over the plan. Stefan is shocked that Jenna is going to die due to this Sacrifice. Greta professes her obedience to Klaus. Matt and Caroline bond, cheesy in my eyes, while trying to run from Tyler. At the Salvatore-Gilbert house, John arrives and he gets pissed that Damon is going to "ruin her life". Klaus gives Greta the moonstone and the Sacrifice begins. The circle lightens around Jules and Klaus kills her first. The frame tightens around Jenna's scared face.
     Back at the cellar, Bonnie and Jeremy talk about a spell of Bonnie's ancestor. Alaric arrives there and talks to Jeremy about the fact that Jenna is going to die for this Sacrifice. Stefan will barter with Klaus and will offer himself in place of Jenna. Jenna and Elena walk down memory lane and think about everything that happened when Elena and Jeremy's parents died. Matt and Caroline are still at the Lockwood mansion trying to hold off Tyler. Matt seems stiff about something and Tyler is at the door. Back at the cellar, Stefan heads to the site where Jenna and Elena are being held. Elijah honors Stefan for everything that he's done. Stefan questions Elijah's honorability but Elijah explains that Klaus killed all of their siblings and ends his statement with "I won't fail you", something very emotional.
     At the cellar, John brings the Gilbert journals to help them out. Damon freaks out that his brother is about to kill himself. The Sacrifice continues and Elena begs Klaus to set Jenna free but Stefan interrupts them. Damon, John, Bonnie, and Jeremy talk about a way to save Elena, a witch spell. Stefan tells Klaus that he wants to kill himself for Jenna's life. Jenna tells Elena that Stefan wants to take her place and Elena isn't pleased. Matt and Caroline tend to Tyler at his house and then Matt seems to really like Caroline but he still has doubts. Matt tells Caroline that he will probably never get over Caroline being a vampire. Bonnie, Jeremy, Damon, and Elijah go to the Sacrifice without Alaric. Klaus decides to go along with Stefan's plan and Stefan dies while Jenna becomes an actual vampire and is then killed as well. Elena is left in despair. Seriously, with everyone dead, pretty much, there seems to be no hope for this series at all.
     We then move back to the Sacrifice and Stefan is back to life. He sees Jenna's body and is devastated. Klaus lightens the circle around Elena and says "it's time", meaning that Elena is about to die. She tells him to go to hell an Klaus drinks her blood until she dies. Klaus starts to have a weird effect and thinks that the Sacrifice is commencing. Bonnie starts to fight back, out of nowhere I might add, and he starts to burn. Damon takes the knife out of Stefan and Stefan watches as Bonnie kills Klaus. Elijah and Klaus meet again and Elijah lets him Klaus live. At the cellar, Alaric, John, and Jeremy talk about Elena's hope. Jeremy and Alaric freak out about Jenna's death. John walks out of the witch's burning site passes out, his life, and soul, going to Elena. Back at the Lockwood's Tyler wakes up and tells Caroline that she was right about the fact that he shouldn't have left town. Caroline seems to be her same old self and starts seeing the positives to her life, or tries to. They snuggle up together on the couch. At the Gilbert house, everyone is getting ready for Jenna's small funeral. Jeremy gives Elena a ring and a letter that John bestowed upon her. She apologizes for everything and the fact that he's lost so many people and they have a sibling hug. Elena sits down and reads the letter that John wrote her. Everyone goes to Jenna's funeral, everyone who knew about the whole Klaus situation. Elena starts to break down and Alaric places a rose on Jenna's pile of ashes. Damon shows Stefan his wolf bite and Stefan is taken aback. He wants to keep Damon alive, shocker! Damon walks off into the sunset to somewhere unknown.
     In a preview for the next episode, the finale, Damon starts to freak due to his wolf bite and begins to suffer. Everyone tries to save him, but the result is yet to be seen. Tune in next week, Junkies!!
