This time round it's for Damon (Ian Somerhalder) to get poetic, well kind of as he holds Sikes hostage to glean the whereabouts of Markos (Raffi Barsoumian) only he's not talking even after he's been tortured by him. Caroline (Candace Accola) arrives and is shocked to see him cos he opened her first savings account for her. Damon telling her about the town being taken over by Travellers, didn't she already know. She wants to help Tyler (Michael Trevino) cos she doesn't give up on people, or hybrids. Elena (Nina Dobrev) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) have their blood drained from them as if Markos hadn't got enough and Elena throws back the blood he gives her to drink on his face. She wants to be freed cos she's given him the blood. Maria (Tamara Austin) releases Stefan and lets him escape. He comes for Elena, of course that was Stefan and not Markos Elena, what was she doing, suffering from hallucinations.
They leave but don't know where they are and Stefan calls Damon collect, they still do that. He has been looking for him which is news to Stefan. Damon says he's donning his superhero wig now. As Elena tries to catch squirrels for blood, ha. She's not really good at doing much is she. They walk and try to hitch a ride but it doesn't work. Then she thinks of Caroline and her cheery attitude towards everything, deciding they should be more like her and she wants her best friend here. Stefan appears be to rather quiet about Caroline though, wonder why. What happened to Bonnie (Kat Graham) she seems to have thrown her by the wayside, is she no longer her best friend too and she's dating her brother.
Liv (Penelope Mitchell) tells Luke (Chris Brochu) they failed in their attempts to stop the Travellers or even kill one of the doppelgangers, cos if one dies, then the Travellers will be defeated. Damon tells Bonnie to get Liv to hurry up with her spell to save the other side and so bring back Enzo (Michael Malarkey) and save herself too. Enzo is throwing things at Damon cos he hasn't done anything to help him, which is where Bonnie comes in. Jeremy (Steven R McQueen) arrives and Damon wants him and Matt (Zach Roerig) to come with him, as they bring the Traveller bodies to the house. Well that wasn't a bright idea considering they'll be a bit too close to home.
Elena decides to go into sexy mode, ha, it'll never work to find a ride and Mariaia comes for them cos she also, wants her husband back. Elena even asking her if she could take a bite out of her, really. No self restraint especially after she saved her. Caroline tells Tyler/Julian she's not giving up on him even if Tyler is no longer in him. The townsfolk break their vials of blood and all gather in the own square chanting. Seems like they're out of time since the spell is beginning. As Stefan et all arrive, Liv and Luke stop them and try to kill one of them, killing Maria in the process. But they are drained of their powers. Damon leaves a note for Markos in the caves and Markos comes a-calling. Damon telling him it would be polite to knock.
He makes himself at home and isn't perturbed when Damon threatens the Travellers. He decides on how he'd like to decorate Salvatore mansion. Julian speaks to Damon telepathically and tells him Markos doesn't know he's here. Damon shows Markos the wine cellar and passes the key to Julian. Stefan and Elena burn as their rings no longer work and need to get to cover. Matt shows them a way out below the bar as Elena recalls drowning and begins to cough up water. Stefan is also shot and recalls this is how he died. They need to get far away from the town, but as Markos told Damon, the spell will eventually get all round the world and rid the magic of the witches and destroy everything they created. Only pure Traveller magic will remain.
Damon also begins to burn as Julian attacks Markos but it's too late as he loses his fangs. That was funny. Markos lets Damon leave so he can get a head start before the spell catches up on him. Meanwhile Caroline and Bonnie pack and Enzo wants to get back here. But he overhears Bonnie telling Caroline there's no spell to save anyone. Julian finds Stefan and Caroline as they meet up and go their separate ways. He finds out Maria is dead and tears Stefan's heart from his body. Elena kisses Damon cos she had a rotten day in a repeat of what he said to her last ep. Realizing she wants to be with him after all.
Bonnie thinks that if they can get to Maria she can recite the spell and reverse it but she slips away from Enzo. That went up in smoke or in the air! Ha. That was their only chance and she can't do anything now, as Stefan appears to Bonnie, she realizes he's dead. Well he was dead anyway being a vampire. Well at least we got some fun scenes out of Damon and Caroline and even with Markos to lighten things up. Hey, Damon fighting Markos was one sided but he gave it his best shot. But Elena wanting Damon again was just a bit of a turn off, cos they keep going back to it over and over.
If magic disappeared and all other things it created then there'd be no next season, so let's hope it won't be dragged out for long in season 6. But that might be stretching things a little considering this season was hit and miss. So where did Liv and Luke disappear to?
