I like his little cameo appearances, long live Matt Donovan. BTW, I thought he hated Stefan, now he's running around doing Stefans dirty work?
I'll forgive him, because he is Matt Donovan.

Bring it!

I don't feel sorry for Paul, he has a choice in the matter and could just leave you know. His lack of enthusiasm does show in his acting, and that is just not very professional, he is being paid well for his services, and his fans deserve better.

Yeah, I will throw hat in the ring and say it's a cover story.

I've seen lots of comments like this and I get it, because it was a few times in a short time this episode, I don't agree this time because Lily seems to order them all around sending them on her errands and such.
I mean Lily tried to send Enzo off to find the pheonix stone for her back in ep 1 I think, and since then…

The heroic, gorgeous Stefan is just not believable, It never was. Throughout the series they have attempted to prop up this character by having a parade of beautiful, powerful women fall inexplicably in love with him, without giving us a good reason why. All they have achieved with persisting down this route, is to…

I hope you are right, that would make more sense, but I doubt it.

Hmm, it was most definitely a step back for Bonnie, and out of character for her these days. I hate how they sacrifice character for plot, it's frustrating, and it happens to all of them intermittently. The other issue I had was the fact that Valerie found Oscar so easily with a locator spell, I mean really? The fact…

I don't have an issue with the flashbacks per say, but did they have to be so darn long. I agree, this episode felt weighted strangely. By far, the most interesting part of the story felt rushed and the momentum was interrupted by those flashbacks that just became so incessant and annoying by the end of the episode. I…

The most entertaining parts were the Alaric/Damon/Bonnie parts for sure, unfortunately there was just not enough of them to elevate the episode from mediocre at best to above average.
Caroline had way too much screentime for my tastes. Less is so much more with her character, otherwise she just grates. Carolines…

The problem with Bonnie, and her characterization as an all powerful Bennett witch, when she saves the day with her awesomeness, their are complaints that she is Deus Ex Machina, on the other hand if she fails, she is the lamest witch ever.

There were at least 20 scenes that were superfluous to requirements, that one wasn't one of them.

Actually, I have more issues with Bonnie bringing it up in the first place. The cure is something she stated herself was none of her business, when she handed it to Damon instead of giving it to her best friend in the first place. Bonnie came across as a bit mean when she brought up the possibility that Elena…
