Caroline (Candace Accola) organizes a 'Friendsgiving' as Damon (Ian Somerhalder) Alaric (Matt Davis) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) head to Portland to find the Gemini Coven. Stefan says there's nothing here which he saw for himself a few months ago and on the phone Alaric tells Elena (Nina Dobrev) that Bonnie (Kat Graham) is still alive. Which Caroline overhears and says that's something to be thankful for. Stefan warns him not to give too much away since he found nothing last time, so he doesn't want to get their hopes up. Stefan again says there's nothing here and kicks Miss Cuddles, Bonnie's teddy bear where it lands on the porch as an invisible house is revealed.
Flashback to 1994 where Kai (Chris Wood) is on a murder spree having killed four of hi siblings after the remaining two, hide under the bed with Jo (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe). Kai brings Bonnie to Portland too and says he wants to have a Thanksgiving dinner with her, also wanting to show her his house. There's no psycho parents here, so she can come in. Caroline's invited Tyler (Michael Trevino) Jo, Liv (Penelope Mitchell) and Luke (Chris Brochu) as well and Elena probably invited Liam (Marco James). He apologizes cos he checked Lady Whitmore's records and found there was nothing strange there. He should've double checked before he went off at her. Elena realizes Jo switched records. Luke brings out a video of himself and Liv when they were children and Jo says that's her voice, she made that video eighteen years ago. Of course they had to be related which was apparent from the flashback when they're hiding under the bed. Kai is Jo's twin. Liv storms off as she doesn't want Caroline making fun of her family. Luke explains that there can only be one leader of the Coven, so when they reach 22, they merge and one of the twins dies, and the other gets their power and becomes leader.
They realize that like Jo, Bonnie put her magic away and put it inside Miss Cuddles. Damon can't enter the house, but Alaric can and goes in. Outside an old man greets them, he's Kai's father, Joshua (Christopher Cousins) and Jo's and the twins. He transports Damon away into the house by himself and wants info from him. Damon wants the gadget, called the Ascendant but he won't give it him cos Kai will return and consume Jo, taking her power and killing her. He puts Jo's locket with a photo inside a cauldron and does a spell. Jo realizes her father's trying to kill her, but why. I mean if Kai's not here then why is he killing her. It defeats the entire purpose of having Kai stuck in 1994, if their father was going to end her life now. Liam tries to save Jo but it doesn't work, not until Elena gives her own blood to her. Telling Liam she's a vampire. That she can't do this cos it's too complicated and she'll see him on Monday and they'll just be friends.
Kai cooks dinner and agrees that if she shares dinner with him, he'll let her go and even give her the car keys. Bonnie actually trusted him. He tells them how Jo agreed to merge with him on the eclipse, but instead they used a spell which sent him here. As in the flashback, Jo makes the twins invisible and tells them to run. She hides her magic in a knife and buries it in the tree stump, which she tells Aalric about on the phone, so they can save Damon. Realizing that Jo has the Ascendant all along, it was a wasted trip. Alaric won't let them have it cos they'll bring back Kai in the process of bringing back Bonnie. Of course Damon compels him into getting it when they get back.
Caroline's saved Stefan leftovers and he says he pushed her away after Damon but he was wrong to do that. As Caroline walks off when he's not finished speaking. Elena tells Damon she doesn't know if she wants to try again with him but she could ask her friend for her advice and wants him to help her get Bonnie back. Which naturally he'll do cos he wants Elena so badly. Tyler tells Liv he'll help her and make sure the coven doesn't get to her. Also that magic doesn't work in Mystic Falls so they'll have a hard time finding her. Did I miss something here, are the male member of the coven, the male twins, meant to be more stronger than the female, or is it the first born who are meant to be merged and weaker? Will have to watch again.
Elena wanting Bonnie back so she can give her advice one her lovelife was selfish, what happened to bringing her back cos she's her friend and it's the right thing to do. Really, why, didn't she like Caroline's advice last ep. It's ridiculous how Bonnie keeps listening to Kai and his excuses and lies. She didn't realize he would run out on her after he found the knife and got the magic back. Of course he'd stab her and run. But seriously what was she thinking, you don't need the Bennett witches for everything. What sort of a coven needs siblings to be merged and the other one to be killed to be claimed leader, preposterous! Just prolonging this storyline here. Damon's throwaway line of having to undress at airport security and finding it funny Stefan wasn't invited to dinner by Caroline!
