Caroline is too good at self control and Elena knows what blood does to Stefan. Bonnie is going to Whitmore college to pick up Gram's belongings. Stefan's getting Elena through this no matter who teaches Elena how to feed. Rebekah (Claire Holt) buys a new truck for Matt and he tells her to apologize to Elena as she killed her. Klaus tells her she's trying too hard. "The Brotherhood of Five still existed." She doesn't care about either.
Damon says Elena can go to college and he had a thing for sorority girls, he did go to college plenty of times. Double taking on a girl. They sit through a lecture on witches by Professor Shane (David Alpay) and he calls himself a true believer. Damon jokes he thinks he's "Witchipedia." Elena is too busy pondering if she's a ripper. Damon thinks she should pick someone and they'll find out. Like the self-absorbed pretty girl (Morgan Pelligrino)
Klaus says Connor isn't talking and can't be compelled. There were a group of highly skilled vampire hunters in 1114 Italy when they came across them. They were exposed cos of bloodshed. Elijah thinks they should heed the warning and Klaus says the vampires haven't been discreet. Connor is the first hunter he's seen since then. Rebekah fell in love with one and told all his secrets to her. He needs info from Rebekah so Klaus needs to make up with her. She "holds the answers to all your prayer," he tells Stefan.
Matt keeps the truck anyway. Rebekah tells April (Grace Phipps) she has dibs on Matt, not for long, ha. Stefan compels April to forget the conversation he's about to have with Rebekah. If she helps Stefan he can give her a clean slate and get Matt to do the same. Elena compels the 'pretty girl' and then lets her go. Damon tells her they're strangers to her, everyone is related to someone, she shouldn't care cos she doesn't know them. Elena claims she's still the same person, but she's not really and how long can she maintain that stance. Damon notices the Frat party flyer and wonders if they should go as killers or Vics.
Alexander (Paul Telfer) was a hunter looking for vampires so they felt safe around him wearing their daylight rings. The hunters were bound by a single cause: the destruction of all vampires with an ultimate weapon. They need to solve the puzzle to find the the weapon; visible in a tattoo which is a map. Jeremy (Steven R McQueen) can see it.
Damon in yet another top hat, goes at Jack the Ripper, he "rippered these two." Professor Shane is there too and Damon calls him creepy and he was right. Elena finds a Vic and Damon reminds her not to kill him. But once again Damon has to stop her. Elena; "I want more." Jeremy tells Connor he helped trap him as he'll kill people important to him. Connor met someone with the mark and he could see the mark. The tattoo showed up on him, the more vampires he killed the more the tattoo spread. The sword is the key to reading the map and the weapon is the knife, which is what Rebekah elicited from Alexander. Alexander daggered her and all her brothers too. The dagger didn't work on Klaus cos of his werewolf side. The weapon leads to a cure for Elena, leading to an end of the vampire species. The map vanished. Klaus thinks Rebekah will tell Stefan where the sword is.
Bonnie doesn't practise magic anymore, why was he so interested in asking her this and then revealing he's a true believer. Also Shane tells her there are other ways to practise if she wants to. Damon and Elena feed in a frenzy. Bonnie watches Elena and you can't help but think she's disgusted at what her friend has become ad that she's with Damon. Connor bites Nate (Michael Lee Kimel) in a bid to escape and rips out his earring. Bonnie comments Damon makes everything sound like a good idea. Elena has to do this with Stefan. Damon tells heh she's a different person and is like Damon already. He can make it fun cos he doesn't rip their head off like Stefan. Clearly Damon was hurt when he heard Elena talking with Bonnie. She should be doing this with Stefan and yet she tells him she couldn't cos of what blood does to him. Again she wants things both ways.
Rebekah wanted the cure back then. There's not a single vampire who hasn't killed a human and Stefan adds Elena eventually will and the pain and guilt will be too much for her. She's driven by passion. Love won't get her back when she switches off her humanity. Rebekah envies Stefan and Elena's love. Alex promised Rebekah marriage and she won't let Klaus get what he wants. Stefan answers her question and tells her he wants to be with Elena, have children, grow old together and for that he'd take the cure. Rebekah buried Alex with the sword which is what the two of them wanted to know anyway. Shame on Stefan in a way using Klaus's humiliation of her by Klaus against her to find the weapon.
Klaus daggers Rebekah (again). The cure must be kept secret. Damon and Elena on the porch again and Stefan opens the door. He was there to compel Jeremy to forget. Elena hates the feeling. Damon's right about what a vampire should be, but not be like Damon. Elena doesn't believe it will get easy and she can't live like this. Connor is gone and Shane has the tattoo map on his wall.
Getting the cure and especially for Elena would mean reverting back to he beginning and she would become human again, thus once again providing blood for Klaus. Would they protect her from him again and if Stefan took the cure also, he'd be no match for Klaus or the hybrids. The same with Damon. Would Damon even contemplate taking the cure since he's too set in his vampire ways to change. Perhaps it's too late for him to change anyway. Would being a normal human being be compelling enough for him to lose all that vampire power and dominance. That is if he ever found out about the cure, which in this show is likely.
As for their Frat party field trip, Elena and Damon getting into their strife, what exactly was he teaching her to be - a messy feeder. Can't say much for the professor either, knew he was shifty and was Grams really that open and careless about telling him she's a witch and that Bonnie is one too. Someone had to have sent Connor to Mystic Falls and it was him.
This episode showed Rebekah was capable of love and yet Klaus just put her down everytime for choosing the wrong man. At least she took risks. Stefan and Klaus getting together again to pull one over on her just to find out where the weapon was just showed how much of an influence Klaus still is over him. This time he has a chance to cure Elena and himself, without thinking of what Klaus would do to them both. He's not exactly going to let her become human and let her go out of the goodness of his hybrid heart.
Jack the Ripper and Elena mentioning becoming the ripper, not the same thing of course but it was funny only Damon would come up with this costume.
