As if things couldn't get any worse, or much worse, Silas decides he wants to take back the scenic route to Mystic Falls which involves telling his thousands year old sob story to a couple at the bus stop who think he's seriously loopy, well he is. He kills the man cos he's a witch and likes to make people suffer. Bonnie (Kat Graham) doesn't think there's any hope for her and so tells Jeremy (Steven R McQueen) this but he has three things he wants to tell her. The usual about thanking her for bringing him back, how he loves her but she doesn't want to know everything so she can have something to look forward to.
Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) watch Amara who they consider to be crazy as she looks to be talking to herself, but also wants to embrace death and no longer be the anchor. Elena (Nina Dobrev) is still ruing over not being there for Stefan and he's having dreams about Silas meeting him, "hello my shadow self" repeatedly, enough to drive anyone crazy. So Damon gets the idea that if Amara wants to off herself and Silas wants her dead too, then she should bring back Bonnie by doing so. He tells Tessa (Janina Gavankar) about this, who was expecting Chinese and she's willing if she can get her revenge on Silas. He asks what she needs and since there aren't any comets or full moons floating around Damon tells her he's got plenty of doppelgangers she can use if she needs blood.
Nadia (Olga Fonda) comes to see Katherine cos she wants them to be together and do some mother/daughter bonding they missed out on over the past centuries or so but she doesn't want any part of it. Especially after she finds out from Maxfield (Rick Cosnett) that she's ageing and there's not much she can do about it. Caroline (Candace Accola) drags her away to give blood. Bonnie's Grimoire is used to spill their blood over and the spell appears to be working, look it's the Charmed symbol appearing on the page, ha. Until Silas shows up and scuppers the spell. The lights go off and Stefan makes off with Amara so he can kill Silas and get his revenge, something he needs to do. It's also a lure to get Silas away from the house. But Silas has his own plans and after a bout of throwing things he stabs Tessa with the poker.
Amara wants to die cos she can't look at him and he takes out his knife and grazes her neck. But Stefan stabs him when they fight as he goes for Silas's knife and Amara stabs herself. Agh, vicious stabbing circles going on here. Damon tries to save Amara as Tessa tries to complete the spell and she dies. Bonnie wants to say goodbye to Jeremy but he touches her and the spell worked. Yawn. Er, Katherine wants Tessa to keep her promise of helping her stop ageing and she tells her to use cream. Tessa's killed herself by cutting her wrists so she can be together with Silas, so much for not wanting him.
Stefan buries Silas and Elena wants him to be happy now since she had it all, a magical Summer of love and she got Bonnie back too, but she couldn't get him back. All the while he was suffering in his safe and Stefan tells her he wanted Elena to rescue him, Elena and Damon. Stefan later has a spot of pain. Oh great Silas! Before Tessa leaves and passes through Bonnie to the other side she tells how she's the anchor now and every dead supernatural creature will go through her to the other side and she'll feel pain and lots of it. Cue Bonnie feeling pain! No wonder Amara waned to die rather than go through all that.
Perhaps the highlight of the ep was Stefan getting his memories back and how the ones he loved couldn't bring him back, nah, they weren't even looking for him. Reminding me of season 8 episodes of Supernatural when Dean (Jensen Ackles) finds out Sammy (Jared Padalecki) was off living his own life and having 'fun' (Dean's definition) with some random vet he met and he wasn't even trying to get him out of Purgatory, or even helping people and continuing on with the family business. Shock to the system when your own blood doesn't feel they need to help!
Hope the doppelganger/Silas/Amara/Tessa story is over now, but something tells me we haven't seen the last of them!
