Outside there's a storm, the lights go out. Stefan and Damon (Ian Somerhalder) have been called to the hospital by the sheriff (Marguerite MacIntyre) who shows them a pateint who has been drained of blood by vampires, she thinks. This leads Stefan to draw a triangle on the map and conclude they're within the expression triangle, with Mystic Falls being the centre of it. Thus Damon adds Bonnie (Kat Graham) is working her magic and doesn't need to wait for the full moon to do this. They need to locate her and Katherine. Elena suggests Caroline and Stefan look inside whilst she and Damon look outside. Really she wants to be alone with Damon not for the purposes of being alone but to grill him on Katherine's whereabouts, like he'd tell her. She thinks he's still hung up on her after all those years, centuries actually.
Bonnie has Katherine in tow and links her with herself so she can't run away, so she follows her like a puppet, well she's not much of anything else really. Down below in the caves where else, Katherine senses and hears someone down there and wants Bonnie to loosen the link so she can see who it is. Bonnie lets her go as Elena has discovered the spell is being performed underground. Elena tries to kill Katherine but with each blow she's also hurting Bonnie. So Stefan stops her. Elena is so full of herself, everything has to revolve around her, no matter what happens to others around her.
The spell works and the veil between the two worlds is lifted, as Damon explained this to the sheriff, the very thin veil that exists around their world and separates them from the supernatural world. Though there didn't seem to be much harm going on around them and not many spirits or ghosts returned for the purposes of this episode. First ghost we see is Kol (Nathanial Buzolic) as he turns up the Grill for sister dearest. He's been watching them and wants his revenge on Elena. Surprised he and Jeremy (Steven R McQueen) didn't meet up in the other world to fight it out between them! Matt (Zach Roerig) doesn't want Elena harmed as Rebekah tells him they don't know where she is. Kol says Rebekah finally got her quarterback and then bottles him in his shoulder.
Rebekah wants to help him and asks why Matt won't let him help her. Explaining everyone in this town becomes a vampire and just for once he wants to graduate as a human. She goes for the first aid kit and sees Caroline cutting her wrists over and over. Thus showing that Caroline is not with Bonnie but it's Silas (Scott Parks). Which Bonnie realizes, so much for Damon telling Alaric (Matt Davis) to all Stefan and tell him this. Bonnie thought he couldn't get into her head anymore but he can. Damon having met Alaric in the school and he says it's him cos of the bottle of booze in locker 42. Damon is happy to see his one and only best friend. Bonnie sees Grams (Jasmine Guy) who tells her expressionism can be used by her in whatever ways she wants.
Kol meets up with Elena in the woods and gives her a hell of a beating which I for enjoyed, she deserved that! Especially how she was laying into Katherine. Until Jeremy shows up and skewers Kol with an arrow. Just as he was in the middle of his "kill me once, shame on me, kill me twice..." speech, was enjoying that. Stefan breaking his neck, all to save Elena. Bonnie realizes Silas can change into anyone he wants and she and Damon find out Alaric isn't really him. Silas stops her from calling Katsia/Quetsatiya (it's easier to spell the other way) and still has the cure. She uses her magic to turn him to stone. Damon and the real Alaric being left to dispose of the body in the sea just like they were going to do with Klaus, cos if he gets any blood he will return. Alaric gives Damon the cure so he can "go get the girl!" At least Damon got to see Alaric for a while.
They leave Elena and Jeremy to spend time together. Stefan was hoping to see Lexi (Arielle Kebbel) and she finally turns up. Thinking Stefan has feelings for Caroline and teases him about it and for getting slapped by Elena. Liked the way Rebekah stopped Caroline from cutting her hands off by slapping her for which Matt thanks her, but Caroline just called her "bitch." At they go out she sees her ex Alexander (Paul Telfer) show up and the lights come back on. They turn around to see the two hunters, Connor (Todd Williams) and GalenVaughn (Charlie Bewley). Bonne is determined to use her magic to get Jeremy back but Grams tells her it can't be done. Bonnie realizes she's dead.
So having eight ghosts return was a letdown even if Alaric got to say "not every ghost has a reason to come back to Mystic Falls." Well seeing as it is the centre of most supernatural activity they would have darn good reason to return. What about the twelve who were killed at the farmhouse, the twelve witches and the twelve hybrids for starters. The blood draining plot seems to be a new baddie in town and not really Silas who was too busy perfecting his character acting by jumping into various cast members. To quote Damon, "ghostapalooza" we didn't get!
lexi and Kol both say they've been watching them but they just haven't been able to see them. Does that apply to all the ghosts? So is Bonnie really dead, is it just Silas pretending to be her or is Grams reallY Silas? Some questions to ponder as we enter into the season 4 finale and graduation day...
