UGH!!! This ep frustrated the heck out of me. It actually made me see there's very little between Klaus and Caroline, to the point where it looks like a one-sided crush until...he draws her a picture with a horse? I'm not sold on pretty much the only scene of them having chemistry was when she was freaking out of it with a werewolf bite. Because when garden variety scenes between them means she treats him with contempt, and it's not even like chemistry-laden contempt...I found myself going "...I found them hot WHY?"

And I'm beating my head against the wall that Damon GRABBED ELENA'S ARM. :headdesk: (oh, now my head is on my desk). NOOOOOOOO!!!! UGH! Bad Boyfriend Behavior 101. The line that really made me scream was Elena telling Stefan "Oh, you've always let me make my own choices!" Which was meant to paint as Damon's care for Elena's safety = taking away her freewill or something. ARGH!!! NOOOOOOO!!!! At least Damon admitted his "weakness" but GAH.

Also didn't care for? Damon dancing with Elena, THEN Stefan dancing with Elena. :facepalm: I know, could mean nothing -- but I'm not liking that symbolism...

AND WHY DOES ELIJAH HAVE AN AMERICAN ACCENT WHEN HIS WHOLE FAMILY HAS ENGLISH ACCENTS?! Even the slightest little things bugged me...

(Sorry I guess I turned this into my own rant, but why? WHY???? After the EW picture too??!!! :( )

Rethinking made me feel better. It does actually all make sense character-wise. It's a journey, I just have to keep reminding myself it's a journey!

I did enjoy them, I admit. Sorry you didn't. :(

He's done that before, though, in "The Sacrifice." He does tend to be grabby when he's afraid for her life AND she's just made a REALLY stupid decision that could conceivably could make her dead! Fortunately, it doesn't happen often, but I still didn't like it.

I don't like it, but it is in character for Elena as we saw last season.

Oh, that didn't bother me in and of itself. I was just annoyed that we got NOTHING with the D/E dance part of it. I mean, we got the ultra-romantic Damon seeing Elena walk in and be awestruck, and Stefan didn't get that moment.

I think I really don't care about accents because it never bugs me, LOL!

Hopefully, my follow-up post will make you feel better. :)
