2x10: The Sacrifice
Twenty four hours after watching this episode have I finally reached a point where I can rationally talk about it. That promo had me reeling in shock for a solid 3 hours or so, erasing my memories of what had actually happened in the episode itself. So I had to rewatch it this morning.
Let me begin with Bonnie/Luka "channeling their energies" (although it certainly seemed like more than that). Am I to believe that these two stood in the middle of the schoolyard, eyes closed, clutching random pieces of jewelry, looking insanely happy and nobody suspected anything? They looked way too excited to just be channeling their energies. I mean, look at Bonnie! It looked like they were having magic-sex lol. How does no one notice this? Mystic Falls is seriously blind.
The interaction between Caroline/Tyler in their first scene made my heart melt. Caroline just wants to be there for him and although he is quite amused by her, you know how appreciative Tyler is. Later, when she tells him that she doesn't want him to face this alone like she did my little shipper heart couldn't take it. I didn't think I would like them together but I really do. They're both going through similar life changes and I think being around one another is really beneficial to the both of them. I can't wait to see how his transformation goes next episode. Michael Trevino is going to kill it. He almost made me cry during Masquerade when he started freaking out after Sara died. That anguish and raw pain, dear god... I wanted to cry. Will Caroline be there when he's transforming? What's gonna happen, show?? (Also, look how cute):
When Bonnie asked Stefan and Damon if they have anything belonging to Katherine, THEIR FACES LOL. They looked so damn upset and just generally appalled that they'd have to give it away. It's a picture boys and don't tell me you don't have extra copies laying around. I know you each have your own set of wallets and 4X6's.
Those freakin crazy Gilberts. Oh how badly I wanted to hurt them (Jeremy moreso)! I understand why Elena went in there willing to surrender herself. Of course she won't stand around and let all of her friends and family die. But I think the way she went about it was very dramatic ("the doppleganger is alive and she's ready to surrender") and frankly, super reckless. Klaus is freakin psychotic-- he would probably kill everyone anyways and make you watch, and then kill you after. Also, I feel that Elena is being pretty bitter lately and crazy with immediately offering up Bonnie's power/ Rose's blood to get her way. I do still love her. I bet she's tired of always being saved; it must be draining have all these supernatural folk always trying to kill you. Homegirl just needs another fierce scene like when she jumped into the well to save Stefan (my bb's need to be reunited).
Now, Jeremy. The boy is looking great this season but damn, HE NEVER LEARNS. He is dumb as bricks. Perhaps it's an aftereffect of all those drugs and emo-brooding he did early last season, but he is just ridiculously stupid. I'm so pissed at him because it's all his fault Stefan's stuck in that tomb. I am also not convinced of all his ~love~ towards Bonnie. It happened way too quickly and now he's jumping into tombs and shit for this crush. He certainly moves real fast, dang. I'm sorry Jeremy but you ARE just a kid with a crush on your sister's friend. That's precisely what it is. Also, it irked me that his main motive for going into the tomb was to prevent Bonnie from going in and not the fact that his sister's life is at stake.
Damon, I have many thoughts about. I loved his scenes with Stefan, obviousy. However, it pissed me off that he went running to save Elena and didn't even tell Stefan about it. I realize that the situation was dire but a holler would have been nice? It's not like Stefan was far away! Secondly, I felt he was way too grabby and aggressive this episode. Yes, we know you care buddy but did you have to slam Elena into the wall and almost crack her spine? "You don't get to make decisions anymore" didn't sit well with me. However, I did love that he immediately told Stefan that he'd get him out of there. I LOVE my boys being brotherly and trusting of one another. SO MUCH PROGRESS.
Which brings me to my biggest love of all, Stefan. My beautiful awesome bb martyring himself into tombs. His was the ultimate sacrifice because who knows what kind of shit's gonna go down now with psycho Katherine around? (As evidenced by the promo which made me lose my mind). Sometimes I think, "My love for him can't increase anymore" and then BAM it does. Then I go: "He can't get any hotter" and the next episode proves me extremely wrong. He's flawed, he's amazing, protective, fierce and just generally amazing. I love him so. I am very excited and scared to watch next episode because I don't want this thing between S/K to be some way to justify Delena. YOU BETTER NOT BE RUINING MY BB, KEVIN AND JULIE. GOT MY EYES ON YOU. Also, did anyone think he looked entirely too chill getting stuck in there? I think bb has got some stellar plan up his sleeve. I'm really sure he is. NO WORRIES BRO, I GOT THIS DOWN. I'm very intrigued. Also, I love how he just walks by Katherine in the end there, ignoring her completely. I love it so.
Wow, I've spent entirely too much time on this. But I also must say Elijah is badass! I don't know what's up with him but am excited to find out. Secondly, can't believe Luka's dad creeped in Elena's bedroom like that. He took a crapload of stuff. WHY NOT JACK HER CAR WHILE YOU'RE AT IT?
Okay, done. :)
