The Vampire Diaries 5.4 "For Whom The Bell Tolls" Review
Finally we get to see Bonnie's (Kat Graham) memorial as her friends say goodbye. Everyone needs her help, Damon (Ian Somerhalder) thinks she can help Stefan (Paul Wesley) recover his memories and Matt (Zach Roerig) thinks she can find what's wrong with him as he's losing time and doesn't remember what he's doing. With Jeremy (Steven R McQueen) bearing the burden of hiding the truth from everyone. Caroline (Candace Accola) thinks she can get an advancement placement into Maxfield's (Rick Cosnett) biology class and has a study date with Jesse (Kendrick Sampson) who has other things on his mind than studying.
Damon takes Stefan on a drive to tell him about his past and how Stefan killed their father and turned Damon into a vampire, as well as telling them of their uncle Zack. Stefan thinks Damon is boring and that he's the fun brother so Damon tries to prove him wrong by crashing the car, making Stefan change his mind, Damon's the fun brother.
Matt calls Jeremy for help as he's set up cameras to film what he does. Later when he watches them back after finding a cut on his palm, Matt's possessed self speaks on the phone and then talks to the camera saying if he tells anyone he'll cut his throat. His body has been taken over as we know. Jeremy calls Damon cos he thinks it's about time they knew the truth about Bonnie. The bell is rung for Observance Day in the town. Stefan and Damon drink and Elena (Nina Dobrev) arrives. Stefan has a penchant for the barmaid, more like a craving for blood and tries to bite her. Damon stops him cos that's not who he is now. He needs to control his hunger. Damon hasn't told Stefan about her or about the two of them being together. Elena takes him to places to make him try and remember and tells her about himself. A the school she shows him how they bumped into each other after she came out of the men's room. He wonders what she was doing coming out of there. Noticing he's seen a boy with blood on his head she takes him outside and jumps to the roof.
She tells him to do the same and Stefan begins to have feelings for her but doesn't remember and tries to kiss her. She tells him they're not together and he senses his hunger return and ends up at the cemetery where he bites Jesse. Caroline stops him and is the only one who Stefan will trust. She agrees to check up on him every hour, as Stefan goes AWOL and ends up at the Salvatore crypt.
Jeremy tells Damon Bonnie is dead cos nature needs a balance and she died when he returned. Stefan tries to comfort Caroline at the crypt when she finds out and she's doing all she can not to cry and lose it. Elena takes the news hard too and doesn't know what to wear for their farewell for Bonnie, where Jeremy speaks and tells them all what her hopes for them. How she will always be here and never leave them. Tyler (Michael Trevino) arrives for Caroline.
Jesse returns back and Maxfield injects him to ensure he remains a vampire. Oh no, not another Dr Frankenstein, or more liked Dr Vampire-stein. These doctors an professors always have hidden agendas in this show. Which seems to keep covering old ground. The Ripper, everytime Stefan is in trouble or has a crisis out pops the Ripper. The love triangle which is as old as time too, first with Katherine and now with Elena again. Let's face it, Elena wanted to kiss Stefan and it wasn't being swept away by the moment or trying to help him, she really wanted to. Though it's surprising how Stefan could recall his feelings for Elena or be jealous of Damon when he doesn't remember either of them.
Highlights Damon in a suit and hugging Jeremy, so emotional. I'm waiting for more new stories and some excitement to the show instead of endless repetition.
