I guess it didn’t help that, in the episode’s final moments, we saw Kai and the Heretics about to break free from their prison world. Caroline Forbes, perhaps? - felt anything but idle.

After she attempted to kill her lonely self, she was sedated and locked in the Salvatore dungeon, but her threat to destroy what Stefan loves - the mysteriously M.I.A. WOMAN ON THE VERGE… | And then there’s Lily, who not only ruined Jo’s bachelorette party - she did everything but eat the stripper, to be honest - but also tried to make a meal out of newly-human Elena.

(Not that we really have to worry about that, since this is Tyler’s third-to-last episode on the show… but I digress.) After all, if Officer Lockwood accidentally kills someone - an oddly topical issue for this show to touch upon, by the way - he’d be forced to wolf out all over again. Even Michael Malarkey couldn’t help but ship the best friends as Matt coerced Tyler into a fight, all in the name of building up his tolerance for anger. Does that mean he might actually take up Matt’s suggestion to leave town with Jo and the kid(s)? I hope not this cast is already dropping like flies!ĪNGER MANAGEMENT | OK, let’s get one thing out of the way first: that Matt/Tyler confrontation was weirdly hot. We learned this week that Jo is carrying two humans in that baby basket (confession: I don’t know how kids are made), triggering a beyond-words-beautiful speech from her future husband about how keeping his family safe is his only priority. WHOA, BABIES! | The only thing I love more than Alaric Saltzman’s apparently endless collection of plain sweaters is his apparently endless amount of love for Jo and their future child… actually, make that future children.

And it looks like next week’s episode will only further complicate Damon’s decision… as if you thought it was going to get easier. Though the brothers Salvatore were able to sedate their mother, they weren’t able to quell Damon’s inner-conflict about whether or not to take the cure. “You’re so afraid of losing me that you’ve convinced yourself you can endure a human life,” Elena insisted.
