Dobrev’s motivations always seem real and tangible and I appreciate that in a melodrama. A lot of times, the self-pity thing is not pulled off very well by actresses, but she never comes across as whiny or obnoxious. Nina Dobrev (Elena) never fails to impress me as an actress. All she wanted today was a nice night at the Carnival with Damon and her friends, and instead she got to deal with Vampire Caroline. One character I felt bad for tonight was Elena. Who knows? Maybe at the end of all this I will end up liking Jeremy again. Part of me, doesn’t care for it because I don’t care for Jeremy as a character, but the other half enjoys the prospect of where writers Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson will take this storyline. ![]() The episode did had me cocking an eyebrow at the Damon/Jeremy dynamic. Accola has sealed her fate for me as an actress, and I now look forward to seeing Caroline in the upcoming episodes. Candice Accola (Caroline) did a wonderful job portraying the anger, betrayal, and self-loathing that Caroline was feeling. I honestly sympathized with her, which is something I have never done for her before. Her breakdown in the bathroom was a strong moment. All last season I was fairly ambiguous about her as a character, but tonight changed that. And the big thing I got from it all is it showed me why I should care about Caroline. ![]() That’s a lot of story, but it seemed important to go back over. In the end, Stefan makes good on his promise to kiss Elena on the top of the ferris wheel giving us the, “aww” moment we were waiting for. Matt admits that he’s in love with Caroline and she begins to learn to control her vampire-induced impulses. Which, oddly enough causes Elena to come to his rescue to stop her.Īfter the carnival, Jeremy and Damon end up bonding over their vampire-hating fathers. Stefan teaches her how to suppress her vampire urges, while Bonnie attempts to kill Damon with a bit of fire. She’s found by Damon who tries to kill her, but not before Elena, Stefan and Bonnie show up to help her. Caroline doesn’t help matters when she ends up killing someone. Stefan and Elena are dead set against this, and the conflicts within the episode continue to mount up. Damon then decides, as you do, that Caroline needs to die, as she is a liability. While, Damon decides to find out what is up with the, “ambiguously supernatural Uncle.”Ĭaroline, then, finds her way to the carnival where she delivers Katherine’s message that, “the game is on.” Damon runs off to find Elena and Stefan to tell them about this turn of events. Damon and Stefan realise that there is something funny about Tyler and Uncle Mason. ![]() Caroline learns that there are upsides to being a vampire, such as the power of persuasion. Later at the school carnival Damon shows Jeremy that his little magic ring can’t always protect him.
