TVD Season 1 Episode 21
Synopsis:
Isobel arrives in town and intimidates a shocked Alaric into arranging a meeting with Elena. Elena is horrified when she finally comes face to face with her birth mother, especially when Isobel tells her that she will stop at nothing to find the mysterious invention John Gilbert has been looking for. Meanwhile, Stefan, Damon and Bonnie step in to help Elena, but are they doing the right thing?
Thoughts:
“You were supposed to mourn me and move on” - geez, how did you come up with that logic and then expect him to do your bidding? Why didn’t she just freaking divorce him
They have so many founders day things
I think it is so funny they push bing so much
Caroline wanting to fix everything, that never really does go away. Love it
Confirmation that john knows isobel - such a random pairing
Isobel and Katherine being friends is such a good twist
I don’t think Damon ever turned off his humanity - he is just angry
I can’t imagine how hard it is for Elena to meet her birth mother just for her to be a bitch
This weird innuendo conversation between jeremy and john, both trying to figure out if the either one knows about vamps
Damon making out with Alaric’s ex wife is so icky
“I do believe in killing the messenger. Why? Cause it sends a message” - love how protective he is being
I’ve missed Bonnie
So weird that more devices were never created against vampires like this before
Elena finding out Jeremy knows - I feel so bad that it happened this way. But love that there isn’t any more lies between them
Oh poor matt - thank goodness Stefan hopped in
Elena’s way never actually works
Stefan is just waiting for history to repeat itself with elena, damon and him
Jeremy having the same thought and plea as stefan is so interesting
Humans being so black and white about vampires is what gets them freaking killed, thats the issue
Love that Isobel called it out
“Thank you for being such a monumental disappointment”
She was the first person to say “youre not katherine” as an insult, geez. Although, if she wasn’t connected with the salvatores, elena def wouldn’t have ended up in the horrid situations that she was
Im surprised that jeremy didn’t even try to see it from her perspective at all
I can’t believe isobel actually admitted that she regrets becoming a vampire. I am glad she at least gave him closure
Jer always wants a girl he can rescue
Of course its Damon that figures it out who Elena’s father is
Bonnie not despelling the device is such a twist
