"You're Scared. You Think Katherine's Going To Send Me Off The Deep End, Don't You?"

Now, 85% of this episode was sheer awesome. But 15% made me seethe with rage. When Damon snapped Jeremy's neck, I had my hands up next to my face, my belly tight with the awesome of this show, knowing that I could not textually express my glee.... and then Jeremy had one of the motherfucking rings that the ladies NEVER, EVER get.

I am so disappointed. Caroline getting smothered was a vicious pouring of salt in my wound.

Other than that, I loved it.

Nina knocked this episode OUT OF THE GODDAMN PARK. I cannot get over how awesome her body language is as Katherine and how nicely she differentiates the two characters.

I am still not convinced that Katherine is here because of Stefan (I honestly hope not and seriously - it's been a century and a half, she can't have missed him that much). Everything with Katherine was awesome. Her sexing up Damon was hot as fucking hell and I totally felt for him when he was trying to ask her if she'd loved him... he sounded so young and lost. And when he confronted Elena... oh, that was harsh, even as I loved Elena not being at all wishy-washy about her feelings. And snapping Jeremy's neck was exactly what I'd expect Damon to do... I love it when he'd acting like a proper vampire, all violent and evil. Less when he was threatening Elena. I was having bad, bad, Buffy flashbacks.

On the subject of vampires, I may be developing a crush on Stefan. He was just so... I just wanted to cling to his shoulders. They're so ...broad and... manly. I really liked that he know right away that it was Katherine - that's my boy! It gave me warm fuzzies even as I adored the tension between him and Katherine.

Also, I'm digging Bonnie this season. For whatever reason, she's working for me this episode. Keep it up, Bennet, keep it up.

Dude, *this.* I might have cried when I saw the ring, I WANT HIM DEAD SO MUCH. Sigh. And John. Why can't we have Anna and Pearl back instead?

The Caroline thing was tragic, but I suspect that she still has Damon's blood in her system? I mean...I would hate to stop watching when I'm this deeply in love with Katherine's utter awesomeness because they can't stop killing the girls.

I am shipping Katherine/Damon hard, as I had suspected I would. And yeah, I don't buy the being in love with Stefan as anything other than a way to push Damon's buttons. OMG, their masochism tango, SO HOT. <3

SAME HERE! OR FUCKING MAKE HIM INTO A VAMPIRE AND DO SOMETHING ACTUALLY INTERESTING WITH HIM.

...

I hadn't thought of that. That would be pretty damn awesome.

Agreed. I'm praying that either Damon (or possibly Elena) gets to stack her ass, though. After another season of her epic evilness, of course.

If you see the preview you'll know for sure about Caroline.
