The Vampire Diaries 5x05 Recap



 Everyone this week is coming to terms with Bonnie’s death, Elena is distracting herself by concentrating on finding out what Dr Maxfield is trying to do. Caroline is distracting herself with Tyler and Damon and Jeremy are trying to switch Silas for Bonnie.
Whilst trying to discover Dr Maxfield’s intentions Elena meets a stranger at Meghan’s grave and he informs Elena that he knows that she did not commit suicide, but before she can find out more about Mr mystery he walks off.

Damon is concerned that his girlfriend is avoiding him, and turns up at college to join Elena for the Whitmore Ball. Elena confesses to Damon that she feels guilty for not figuring out that Bonnie was dead all summer whilst she was being happy with Damon. In an effort to please Elena he hatches a plan with Jeremy to trade Silas’ life for Bonnie’s. Bonnie tells Jeremy she will have no part of it but he lies for her.

Silas this week is trying to discover where the anchor is for the other side; he needs to destroy it in order to pass peacefully over. He teams up with Damon in order to switch places with Stefan to trick Ketsia. Ketsia doesn’t know where the anchor is, the travellers have been moving it around for centuries she is looking for her pendant in order to increase her powers. She finds the necklace and she desiccates Silas like she did before.

At the ball Caroline is enjoying Tyler being back until he tells her that he has no intention of staying at college. He informs her that he only came back to say goodbye to her as he wants to go and chase after Klaus to take away all that he holds close. Caroline gives him an ultimatum and he chooses revenge over staying with her.

Dr Maxfield plot thickens he is studying Jesse as a vampire and is also the legal guardian of Aaron (the stranger Elena met earlier at Meghan’s grave) He warns Aaron to stay away from Elena. However, under compulsion he tells her that everyone around him always dies. Something to do with Dr Maxfield I think!

Katherine learns a few lessons this week, she finds out that Silas needs all of her blood to become mortal again so she is on the run with Nadia. Complications arise though when we learn that Nadia is in fact Katherine’s daughter, and has spent centuries trying to find her. Katherine tells Nadia that she came back for her.

With Silas desiccated it puts a spanner in the works for Damon’s plan, he invites Katherine back who is overjoyed to see that she doesn’t have to run anymore, she pleads with Damon to not feed her to Silas, for a brief moment he reconsiders but he does it anyway. However, it is very hard to kill Katherine and she comes back to life.

Final Thoughts:

On the revenge path could it be that Tyler will go to The Originals and hook up with Hayley.

I like the new Stefan not lusting after Elena, although it looks it might be Caroline now.

How is Katherine not dead.


How will they get Bonnie back.
