and that vampires aren't what she was brought up to believe. Witnessing her daughter trying to save Jeremy, and learning about how her daughter felt, the two finished their part in the episode in a hug.
For Damon and his werewolf bite, the end seemed clear. But for fans, they knew that there would be a way he could be saved, and they were right. A well know
Vampire Diaries fact, is that a vampire blood can heal a human, however it doesn't work the same way for vampires. But Klaus being a mix of an original vampire and part human, his blood is different. By giving himself to Klaus, Stefan was able to save Damon, but at a price. He now has became a "wing-man" for Klaus. Which is definintly something we will see more of next season.

a, and although she did not say i love you back, she responed with a kiss shortly after.
"I know you love Stefan, and that it will aways be Stefan, but i love you, you should know that" "I do"And while all this, Stefan was doing whatever possible to save his brother. Next season, will definintly be interesting, as Stefan won't be around. Will anything further happen between the two?
The loss of Jenna in the previous episode was hard or Alaric, Elena and Jeremy, who have all suffered loss already in their lives. Elena and Jeremy have once again lossed a parent. Now they want to be normal, and try to move on with their lives. But as they have already learned, it will take time to recover. Alaric, has once again lossed someone he loved, its different that with Isobel, who became a vampire, before finally dying, but still he has shown not to have very much luck with women. He drinks, trying to forget, but is forced back into reality when trying to save Damon.
As for Katherine, she finally had a chance to escape, when Klaus told her to bring the blood to Damon, and as she was on vervain she was able to leave and not return. She then repaid Damon by rather than running and not returning like she would have in the past, and brought the blood to him.
"You got free?" "Yep, finally" "And you still came here?""I owed you one"
And finally for Klaus and Elijah, who escaped in the previous episode. Klaus reunited Elijah with the rest of their family, by betraying him, by stabbing and killing him. Now Klaus, a hybrid, both vampire and werewolf is free, and invisible. He forced Stefan into drinking bags of blood, trying to bring out the old Stefan, to become his wing-man. Stefan has seemed to be back to his old ways, as he can't control himself with human blood. He is like a drug addict, who has recently slipped and fallen back with the drugs.
The next season will be full of new questions, and eventully new answers. Each episode is sure to be as, or more amazing than the ones
