TVD Season 1 Episode 8

GET READY FOR AN EPIC JOURNEY

Synopsis:

While celebrating his birthday, Stefan receives a surprise visit from one of his oldest vampire friends, who also finds time to give Elena some unsolicited relationship advice. Damon convinces Caroline to try and retrieve his medallion from Bonnie, and Sheriff Forbes is pleased when Damon offers to join her hunt, but she is unaware that he is the one she is searching for.


Thoughts:

I LOVE LEXI

This may be one of my favorite episodes

Was matt trying to imply that stefan had something to do with her disappearance? I guess that from his pov that makes sense

Knowing that the last time damon saw lexi he slept with her and then tricked her makes this episode much worse

I love this little interaction with jenna, elena, and jeremy

Damon inserting himself into the investigation makes me laugh so much since he and sheriff forbes become friends

Bonnie is such a good friend

This is one of my FAVORITE scenes, the fact they come back to this in Nina’s final episode makes me emotional

Lexi being so willing to do something damon wants. I am surprised she was so wiling

Oh poor elena, that scene meeting lexi. 

Also, go lexi for calling out how weird it is he fell for elena

Caroline doesn’t deserve any of this

I love elena and stefan together, I cant wait till they get back together

How does bonnie not realize that Damon may not be human?

I am glad stefan finally said that he has gone through something similar which is why he was trying to help. That honestly covers it!

Oh the dreaded alley!

Elena’s comebacks are my favorite

I feel so bad that Caroline is stuck in the middle of a witch and a vampire but has no idea. The fact she is able to heal and move on from this is amazing. 

I wish we could have gotten more Lexi and Elena

“I was feeling Epic”...THE FIRST TIME WE HEAR IT!

The start of Matt and Caroline!

Caroline being called shallow and then eventually becoming one of the most thoughtful characters. 

Damon is such an ass, how did we ever forgive him for what he did in Season 1?

I will never get over Lexi dying

What a way to end this episode! With Bonnie waking up in the graveyard after Emily tells her “Its coming”
