I just love that Helena knew what a road trip was. The bike helmet, the pig noises, and the fact that she's Kira-smart and Sarah-cunning, she's slowly edging her way to awesome for me.

Mini powdered donuts.

Or maybe Helena will rub off on Alison. She'll go blonde and start carrying knives to make her points.

He dropped them into the bottom of the ocean. He seemed mildly conflicted and then quoted Garrett when he hit the button so…don't know about that.

But as Leekie pointed out to her, all of this is a reaction to Rachel's strong arm tactics. It didn't have to go down like this at all.

As I just said to someone else, she could have left it as a realization that Bonnie was going to die, zipped her mouth, or said something sympathetic. It's not Lexi the character at fault. It's the writers. That was clunky and unnecessary dialogue.

No one said anything about Bonnie's choice to sacrifice herself. Bonnie is an idiot that way. That's like, established in her character. What I said was, Lexi said a messed up thing. There's no way to spin what she said as anything besides her not even considering Bonnie's value as a person. She could have said "I…

It's funny because I don't think I became a fan of Bonnie exactly but seeing how she was used started to bother me. I eventually ended up liking her more as time went on. The girl had no parents and no house. Even Matt Donovan had a house. The only one I've ever really been a fan of is Caroline, especially once she…

Ah, yes. That makes sense.

As a human being (or vampire in this case), it just was not a nice thing to say to another human being (witch/anchor here). Lexi basically told her that her life only mattered as long as other people got what they wanted.

I have to agree. She's probably better off dead and Kat Graham needs a new gig because this has gone past ridiculous.

Bonnie's always putting herself at risk for others. That's not what I'm talking about. It's the fact that her life wasn't valued. By anyone, except maybe Jeremy.

My Joshie deserves better than Luke.

Are you freaking kidding me?! Wow, if I had any doubts about how horribly Bonnie's been treated, Lexi confirmed it. "What kind of best friend would I be if you died before his brother came through?" Not, "Gee Bonnie, I don't want to help you hasten toward death. Dying in service of people who don't give a crap about…

Yeah, I've been going over it repeatedly today. Obsessed much? What I was thinking originally was that he would have followed her and risked it because he wanted the Jennings at all costs. Now I'm thinking, he was just being cautious. I'm all over the place!

My current theory is that Cardinal is the murderer. He killed Jared's family because of some obsession with them.

I'm sure he knew it was Elizabeth driving. He could have followed her but his goal was to pursue Jared.

Same thing I was thinking last night. He got close to Jared's house or somewhere at school but how often would the backpack not be in Jared's sightline? Then again, he was in that guy's house and neither parent nor daughter ever saw him so I guess Larrick is just that good.

Or an ass like that! I was impressed and for the record, I'm a hetero female.

I know the limitations, in real life with the budget and in the show, with the setting. Just pointing out that it was the only thing weird to me and I know it's because of where I grew up.
