And so it's revealed that Elena is sired to Damon. Maybe now Stefan will stop trying to do what he thinks she needs and...who are we kidding? He's going to keep trying to cure her so he can like her again. Krista is very mad at him.

A note on the music at the end: I always pick a song used in the episode we're covering. This time, there was a string version of one of my favorite songs, Falling Slowly from the musical Once. For our end music, I chose a live version of it from the London production starring one of my dreamboats, Arthur Darvill from Doctor Who. His voice is gorgeous. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
