The Vampire Diaries 7.22 "Gods and Monsters" Review
As they find a way to break into the Armoury, with Damon (Ian Somerhalder) having several plans to put into motion, beginning with blowing up the doors and when that doesn't work he starts by wanting a plane and a pilot. Caroline (Candice King) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) drive away from Bobbie (Kat Graham) but she uses sirens on Matt's (Zach Roerig) car to catch up to them. Damon says all they need to do is to get the twins to siphon Bonnie's magic to open the door and undo the spell. But Caroline doesn't want that since they're only 3 and they should have a normal childhood, telling Stefan about how she grabbed hold of Caroline's arm when she took a backpack at a birthday party. Stefan tells her to do what she wants cos she's their mother. She thought it would just be the three of them on the run.
Bonnie won't let Matt help her even if he can and they find the road's blocked and the flight was cancelled cos of the storm, so they couldn't think about hiring a plane like Damon was going to. Stefan drives back towards Bonnie and Matt undoes his rope in time and makes her swerve the car, crashing in the process. His leg is caught and she leaves him stranded cos it's not his fight and he's human. Matt tries to free himself but can't. Enzo (Michael Malarkey) goes to see Virginia (Aisha Duran) for info on what exactly is in the vault and we don't get to hear what it is. He kept that to himself.
Caroline later calls Alaric (Matt Davis) and tells him the same and he wants them to help cos they haven't seen her in a week and she needs to be here for them, he doesn't want her to not ever see them again. Stefan foils Damon's plane plan since he knows he was going to kidnap them from Dallas, but he says he would've spoken with Alaric. He tells Caroline they need to talk about it and decides to bring them. Stefan thinks Caroline is thawing towards him but she says she's not and Valerie's missing so they can't use her for the spell.
The twins open the door and Damon and Stefan go in, but Damon wants to go alone. He says he was right that he shouldn't have left Stefan back then and he was afraid. Stefan telling him he was more afraid of not having Elena around cos of what he'll do without her. He wants this chance to go in there alone and not be afraid and he closes the vault door behind him. Enzo calls Bonnie and tells her to chase him, finally catching up to him at the cabin, where he wants to have a last meal with Bonnie. She can't though and shoots at him, all over the cabin, breaking the guitar and also she wants him to resist and fight her off, which was quite a funny scene, but he can't. Damon finds the Everlasting in a van and he sets fire to it eventually. Just how many lighters does Damon carry with him, ha. Especially for someone who doesn't smoke, but that scene was reminiscent of Supernatural where Dean's lighter gave out on him too. He gets the lighter going and just like that Bonnie's cured and Enzo's alive.
Damon calls them and she does thank him, he was hoping Enzo was finished by now. He then hears Elena and doesn't come out of the vault. Even when Bonnie tells him she's in a warehouse in Brooklyn; just wondered what would happen if that warehouse went up in smoke, you know, just a thought, ha. They can't get into the vault cos it's locked and they need someone from the Armoury. Alaric and Caroline part ways cos she loves Stefan and not him and she should stay behind, but she gave him so much over those three years and they will always be a family.
Bonnie arrives and says Enzo was with her, as he walks into the vault by himself and closes it behind him. At this point, have to ask did Enzo do that on purpose since he was the only one who knew what sort of a monster was in there, cos they could've been out of there ages ago. However Damon's been affected and tells Enzo it doesn't hurt at first, as he's taken over too. When the others enter after Alaric overrides the codes in a week, there's no one there. Caroline writes in her diary for Elena, about Damon and also Stefan does too, not being able to find them. As they get reports of missing people all over the state, 20, 40, 60. It must be them as Damon and Enzo go on their killing spree and relish every moment of it. Matt leaves cos this isn't his fight and he needs to be there for the fights that are his, after getting a visit from Penny's (Ana Nogueira) ghost when he was unconscious in the truck. She tells him to live cos it's not his time to come with her.
Once again we get a big bad for season 8 that's into manipulation and killing, so what else is new. We need something different and more explanation on the Armoury. Why weren't Bonnie et al looking through the Armoury's records and books and it looked like Bonnie was the only one doing anything, with the others just making diary entries. Though once again it was unfair on Bonnie, she only just found Enzo and they take him away again. Not to mention Damon too.
