Previously on the Vampire Diaries, Damon made Elena drink his blood so he wouldn’t lose her, Tyler came back home and fell in Klaus’ trap, Stefan and Elena had a talk about becoming a vampire, Jenna was turned into a vampire, and Damon got bitten by Tyler.
This week episode, The Sun Also Rises, is about the sacrifice ritual and the aftermath of it.
Jenna’s Transformation:
Elena tries to save Jenna, but Greta stops her with a spell. Jenna doesn’t know what’s going on at first until Elena tells her that she’s in transformation. Greta offers her blood to Jenna, so she can complete her transformation. Elena tries to stop Jenna from feeding, but Jenna’s vampire instincts take over and she feeds on Greta.
The Return of Bonnie and Jeremy:
Finally! These two have been MIA for the past two episodes. They’ve been locked up in that Mansion for a long time reading Grimoires. I felt like Bonnie and Jeremy have been kept out of the loop and they were told about the situation a little too late.
The Other Love Triangle:
I have to give it up for Caroline for being such a loyal friend. Even when Tyler is in his wolf form and trying to attack her, she never lose faith in him. She risks her life, trying to protect him. Matt, on the other hand, acts like any normal teenage boy would. I can’t blame him for shooting Tyler because he was protecting Caroline and himself. I also can’t blame him for breaking up with Caroline, even though it breaks my heart. One of the good things from tonight episode is the rekindling of friendship between Caroline and Tyler.
Operation Keep Elena Human:
Bonnie and Jeremy read somewhere in the Grimoires that Emily Bennett cast a resuscitation spell in 1864 and Jonathan Gilbert knew about it. Jeremy asks Uncle John to bring all the Gilbert Journals to find out what really happened.
It turns out that, there is a way. If a parent is willing to die for his or her child, the child can be saved. It’s like switching souls. John agrees to do it. Bonnie puts a spell on John before she leaves with Elijah and Damon to kill Klaus.
Stefan’s Sacrifice:
When Stefan finds out from Damon that Jenna’s been taken, he decides to do what he does best. Self-sacrifice. He offers to take Jenna’s place, but Klaus has already made his mind. He chose Jenna and she would be the vampire that he will sacrifice to break the curse.
Elijah’s Revenge:
There is a reason why Elijah wants to kill Klaus. It is not just because if the curse is broken, Klaus would become the deadliest hybrid. It’s because Klaus has took every single one of Elijah’s family and killed them. This is the reason why Elijah wants to kill Klaus. Stefan questions Elijah whether or not he can actually go through with killing his brother. Elijah tells him that Stefan has his words he will kill Klaus.
Breaking the Curse:
Greta puts the three ingredients: the doppleganger, the vampire, and the werewolf in the middle of the field surrounded by fire. Can I just say that I am so grateful Tyler isn’t the werewolf they have? I never liked Jules.
First, Greta breaks the moonstone that is binding the curse. After that, Klaus sacrifice a werewolf by ripping out Jules’ heart. I kind of feel bad for her but if a werewolf had to die, it’s better she than Tyler.
Because Stefan offers to take Jenna’s place, Klaus makes Elena choose between Jenna and Stefan. Elena refuses to, and Klaus puts a stake into Stefan’s back to weaken him. Then, he turns to Jenna but Jenna ran and bit Greta’s neck. She wasn’t fast enough. Klaus catches her and put a stake through her heart. Even though I knew it had to happen, it still took me by surprise. I always liked Jenna, but knowing this show, no one is safe.
Klaus then, goes for Elena and drinks her blood until she dies. As soon as the doppleganger sacrifice is completed, Klaus’ transformation starts. Damon, Elijah and Bonnie get to the scene and Bonnie does her spell. When Klaus is weaken, Elijah shoves his hand inside Klaus’ chest to grab his heart. This is when Klaus chooses to tell Elijah that he didn’t kill the family and that if Elijah kills him, he would never know where to find them. Of course Elijah caves and ran from the scene with Klaus.
The Aftermath:
- Elena comes back to life and as soon as she does, John dies.
- Jeremy and Elena are left with no parent. The only parental figure they have left in their lives is Alaric.
- John left his Gilbert Ring for Elena.
- Damon finally tells Stefan about his werewolf bite.
This is such a tragic episode. I’m really going to miss Jenna. Next week is the season finale. What’s going to happen to Damon? I really hope they don’t leave Damon’s fate as a cliffhanger.
