The Vampire Diaries: Stefan + Flamethrower = WIN
On The Vampire Diaries this week, there was serious plot development for the series. What do you mean Katherine is not in the tomb!? Gasp! Are you saying that she's been roaming free this whole time and can't be bothered to even Facebook Damon and pretend that they're just friends now? Terribly rude. Damon, you can do sooooo much better than some chick who took off 140-odd years ago and can't even be bothered to send a Halloween card now and then. We suppose that now you'll have to go looking for her. Sigh.
And can we please talk about that tomb. Awfully well crafted and cavernous for a secret vamp hiding spot whipped up at the last moment...and apparently equipped with pneumatic door openers! Did you see that door open? It was a flashback to childhood reruns of Land Of The Lost. Where's a sleestack when you need one.
We were a widge incredulous about the tiny amount of blood it takes to reconstitute a pruney dried up vampire. Apparently it's way less fluid than it would take to reconstitute, say, a prune.
More Vampire Diaries after the jump!
Oh Stefan, just when we think you're too nice for us, you do something rad like kill a bad vamp with a flamethrower. It makes our hearts sing! That's what Washed Up Jock gets for being such a jerk. See, we told you he merited a generic nickname because we didn't think he'd last that long.
Onto Caroline. You know we love Caroline around here, with her loose morals and zippy one-liners. So that she's turning into a model citizen and actual good girlfriend material, someone who is honest and thoughtful, is a bit of a downer for us. Hooray for her personal development, we guess. She better get fun again soon though.
Poor Grams! Hopefully the ambulance will get there in the nick of time. Poor Jeremy! Losing the girl just as he was getting to really like her, and getting sucked back in to the whole vamp thing. We can at least hope memories of Vicki remain forgotten.
Mostly, though? Poor Damon. He seems to be taking the news of Katherine's abandonment to heart, which just sucks. Hopefully his renewed bond with Elena will bring some comfort. We doubt it, though. Finding out that your eternal true love was an illusion and that the other party never felt that way is a major blow. Happily, he in fact has eternity to heal that wound. We feel you, dog. Trust.

elena cant b katherines daughter. shes probably like her whatevr-whatevr grandaughter. i was kinda thinking if elena was alarics daughter too since isobel was his wife. that would be weird though since jenna is practiclly dating alaric. i expected more of a scare 4 this ep with the tomb opening and all but it was a bit of a let down. stefan setting washed up jock on fire was funny though.

Actually didn't they say that vampires couldn't reproduce when elena was trying to figure out why she looked so much like katherine??

Thought that Elena was the daughter of that teacher's wife...Alaric Salzmann or what his name was...he mentioned her name to Jenna and it was the same as Elenas mothers and Jenna seemed pretty shocked:S
But if Elena really was Katherines daughter that would be kind of disturbing AND disgusting...like Stefan beeing with her and her mother?!

So first of all...who does Anna's minion thinks he is?
He's like a few weeks old and already he thinks he is better than vampires who lived for like hundred years or whatever...That barkeeper really has some ego..
But after all...my heart broke for Damon...though I can't really say that I expected him to open the tomb and live a happy end with Katherine...thanks god for that;)
And if Damon goes now after her for another reason that vengeance he really lost something of his brain...I hope if he finds her theres at least a good fight scene...
Though I love the episode...Damon had so much screentime that it just could have been a good one :)

Elena can't be Katherine's daughter. Damon has already said that vampires can't procreate. So, I'm pretty curious about how Isobel is related to Katherine, if Isobel's really Elena's mother.

Actually I was expecting an episode more dynamic and creative, but it was surprising because we knew that Katherine was free all along and this may explain why Elena and her are identic. Is Elena daughter of Katherine?. I wouldn't be surprise about this fact.
