With the werewolf bite getting worse, Damon is ready to give up, but of course, Stefan can’t help but try to save him. The spirits in the old witch house reveal that Klaus will have the cure, so Stefan goes to strike a bargain while Alaric watches a sickly Damon. All goes well until Sheriff Forbes shows up with absolutely no plan and lets Damon out of the cellar. He immediately goes looking for Elena at the town square Gone with the Wind screening but finds Jeremy instead. Just as the two go into the Grill, Liz comes in, guns blazing, and shoots Jeremy, killing him. Bonnie and Alaric are determined to save him, so they take Jeremy’s body back to the witch house to try a resurrection spell. With the Jeremy drama as a distraction, Damon escapes again, and as he’s wandering through the square seeing visions of Katherine in 1864, Elena finds him and helps him get back to the Salvatore house. While Damon gets worse, Stefan tries to get Klaus to hand over the cure by chugging blood bags and embracing his true rippah self. Klaus finally agrees to let Katherine take his blood to Damon, and right before she arrives with the cure, Delena have so many tender moments and share their first kiss! So much to unpack now that Damon is going to survive, Jeremy is seeing the ghosts of girlfriends past, and Klaus has revealed his storage unit full of daggered Originals. But we’ll get to that in Season 3. This week: Season 2 Episode 22 | As I Lay Dying Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
