great episode
the bonnie/enzo scenes are the best

This episode was pretty great.
Loved the episode being Bonnie centric.

I loved the Bonnie/Damon angst... it looks like it's more than friendship feelings there but I really don't know. lol

I enjoyed the Bonnie/Enzo scenes. It was sweet seeing how they got together and Enzo protecting Bonnie.:love:

I loved how Stefan was #TeamHelpingBonnie! He didn't care for Damon but once Damon mentioned Bonnie he stopped all things to help her. About time.

I think it's way overdue to see the whole crew care about Bonnie... I mean Bonnie did you know, saved most of these people. Although really, Bonnie life in danger again? show us something new.

Don't care for the Caroline/Alaric relationship but I am interesting in finding out who Caroline is in love with right now.

I actually liked Alaric vs Stefan in this episode.:eek:

Pretty solid episode and can't wait for the next one.

I really love how mad Bonnie is at Damon and that they are keeping that friendship consistent. I’m gonna love watching them grow back together as friends. Im not sure I saw Damon’s dislike for B/E as “jealously”. He could just be overprotective of her and uncomfortable but I wouldn’t hate it either if he was jealous.

This whole Alaric/Caroline storyline sucks mostly because I hate how its making Alaric look all jealous and possessive of her. I mean, S/C were together first and have a history and he knows that Caroline doesn’t truly love him so IDK, its just frustrating to watch. You want to feel bad for Alaric but IMO it’s impossible. Stefan is right that its not a real relationship and hes being so awful to Stefan for wanting her back and its not deserved. They used to be friends. Caroline can still be the “mother” to his children and help him out as if they were a divorced couple with kids.

I think all the flash backs/forwards are getting too complicating and annoying. At least, for me they are. It’s hard to keep track of whats what when you are doing other things while watching the show. This season has been kind of a mess imo and it’s not my favorite SL whatsoever. I truly hope next season is something different. I just dont really get the whole time jump to begin with and why they had to that. I dont want next year to be a continuation of that I want something fresh.

I don’t dislike Bonnie/Enzo but I dont love them either. I thought they had too much focus this episode but it was nice for Bonnie I guess. And they were cute as a couple. It is nice for her fans to get too see so much good stuff for her this season. And I will say that the dance scene and hand touching was really freaking hot. :love:

Rayna is also growing on me a bit and I kinda like her interactions with Damon.

This was my favorite episode of the season.

I like Rayna don't want her to die.

it was one of my favorites too. probably because it focused on the mains... and there was no valerie. :lol:

The vampire killing montage was probably my favorite scene of the entire season. I hope we see more of everyone working together like that.

I'm really loving Bonnie and Enzo together.

This episode was okay. I did like the focus on the main characters though, it felt more like the old TVD to me.

I enjoyed watching Bonnie/Enzo and Damon scenes. Enzo is so much more likable in this half of the season compared to every other. He’s finally seemed to mature and I can thank Bonnie for that. I enjoyed their flashbacks of how they got together. I still don’t love them though only because their relationship just came on so suddenly and we didn’t get to truly see it develop. They do have chemistry though and its probably my favorite Bonnie romance. But it was just a bit too much of them for my taste.

I liked seeing Bonnie not instantly forgive Damon. All her anger definitely showed how much she cared.

I wish there had been more for Stefan this episode instead of just seeing him around judgy Alaric, but oh well. At least he made an effort to go see them and Caroline. Alaric telling him to back off was pretty irritating. I was SO GLAD when Stefan stood up to him and told him their relationship was a lie. But I really hate this whole Alaric vs Stefan thing. Its annoying and not where I wanted to see their relationship go. :( I’m glad this storyline is almost over.

I am ready for Rayna to go. I liked her storyline but I don’t want it to drag on too long.

WHEN STEFAN AND CAROLINE SAW EACH OTHER FOR THE FIRST TIME GUH MY HEART. :love: It was so obvious the feelings were still there and it was sad that she just walked away, but I totally understand. What I don’t get is what she has told Alaric in regards to their relationship, like, why she wont be with him? IDK, I find the whole situation very odd.

I am glad valerie is gone.
