Just a quick pre-statement. These reviews are simply the way I see the episode and the characters, with ranting and bashing thrown in. I do not enjoy Stefan's character at all. If you have read my previous reviews, you know this. If not, this note should tip you off. Just to say, I will not be responsible for any hurt feelings. So, please, no

There's so much misunderstanding and mistrust between the brothers (...) they still are stabbing each other in the back."
What I meant was this situation is an unending cycle which started with Katherine imprisonment. Their initial relationship was very close, trusting (Hell they were fine with Katherine sleeping with both of them though Katherine may have influenced Stefan anyway). Though unintentional, it was Stefan's fault that Katherine was captured and it started with that.
Stefan mentioned that when Damon is always in his life (which I think was his chance at Damon's trust again), Stefan states he always regrets it. I find that statement is never mentioned when discussing these characters. We only look at the present, not the time between 1864 and the present that made both brothers treat each other the way they do. Though we may never know the details depending if the writers decide to reveal it to us.
I never said Damon was the only one that causes this mistrust. Like I stated above, both of them contribute to the problem. Stefan has done plenty of manipulative things to Damon (Family Ties and You're Undead to Me show this well). The most recent episode is a big example of Stefan betraying, using, and lying to his brother (and at the same time, Damon was going to try to free Katherine alone anyway). So once again, this cycle of betrayal continues.
Sorry about the debate lacunaclaudia, but I hope it clears it up a bit more? And if I don't respond for a while, it's probably because I am a sleep; its like 4 am. Night!
