Vampire Diaries - "Original Sin" (5x03)



Okay guys it´s time to go back to Mystic Falls for this week:
In the third episode of this season, titled "Original Sin" Elena and Damon are still looking for the second Salvatore brother. The episode starts of with a dream that Elena has about Stefan entering a bar and killing the bartender. So is "The Ripper" back or not.....at the beginning of the episode we really have no clue. The whole thing gets a little awkward, when we find out that Damon´s ex Katherine has had the same dream about her lover boy Stefan.......poor Damon, this must be so weird!!
Okay, so lets see how much of a warning this dream was......we see Stefan in a cabin, waking up and looking quite confused. When he sits up he sees a girl sitting at his bedside.....who the hell is this girl was my first reaction. Well whoever she is she seems to know that Stefan is a vampire, otherwise it would be a really weird situation when she gives him a blood bag to drink. She reveals that she knows Silas and that Stefan is his shadow self. Ooooookay hold on, what is going on here? You ready for this??? The girls name iiiiis: Qetsiyah!
So one of the biggest things we learn from Qetsiyah is, that her and Silas BOTH where travelers. So is this the reason, why Silas trusts Nadia so much and wants to work with her to get Katherine?? Anyways, we also learn , that the day of their supposed wedding Qetsiyah first gets stood up at the altar and later finds out why. Okay everyone....brace yourselves:
Silas was with his "true love", named Amara; and turns out she looks like this:





Oh yes people, you see correctly; she ALSO looks just like Elena.....or more like Katherine???!! It´s all pretty confusing ;)

So as every attentive viewer of this show figured put by now, Amara is a doppelganger! As you can imagine Qetsiyah is kind of pissed when she finds Silas with this other woman and what does she do? She kills Amara!!


Alrighty after all this ancient shocker lets see how the search for Stefan is progressing:
Damon finally finds his brother and for everyone who thought there are a lot of brotherly emotions flowing over your screen, you´ll be disappointed! The lack of emotion in Damons face is kind of worrying.....but on the other hand, we all know that he´s not the overly emotional type......aw come on man, this guy is your brother!!!

Qetsiyah returns and here comes the next shocker (boy, this girl brings the drama like you wont imagine):

First we find out that she planted those dreams about Stefan.....I can only imagine the sigh of relieve that Damon is breathing right now....but let me tell you, he will not be relieved for much longer...



Here is another Qetsiyah drama: Stefan is NOT Silas´first shadow self......over the centuries versions of Elena and Stefan always found each other! Oh nooooo, does this mean no more Delena?? Damn you universe!!!!!
To be honest I´m not shure what to think of this plot twist! The eternal love story between Elena and Stefan.... I don't know! Would it be so bad for Elena and Damon to just be happy? As you may have figured out by now, I´m a Delena shipper and I´m so pissed, that apparently it´s just possible for Stefan and Elena to have a long lasting relationship??!! Why??????
That´s not all people, Silas´ex is one crazy, furious b****, she links Stefan and Silas and fries Silas´ brain, so that he´s not able to mind control people or read someone elses thoughts. Okay, this might have been the only "good" thing she did the entire episode (more about that in a minute)!


 

A few minutes later, after Damon defends his suffering brother and gets witch pitched by crazy traveler lady Qetsiyah, he has to witness Elenas reaction to finding Stefan: As you can imagine it´s very emotional.....poor Damon. So after the reunion Damon tells his girlfriend all about the doppelganger/shadow self craziness he found out about and basically that the universe screwed their chances to ever be happy. But this guy would not be the bad ass Salvsatore brother if he would not have something to say about that. He tells Elena, that he does not let anyone tell him who he should and should not love and especially not the universe. He  declares his love for her again and the cutest thing ever comes out of his mouth: "You are my life!" (melting over heeeere;) ). So everything is good again right? Of course it´s not!!! When Stefan wakes up from his crazy day he had with Qetsiyah, we learn that he has no memory about Elena or Damon!!! Oh boy...where is this whole thing going?? My first thought: I smell a Elena, Caroline, Katherine affection smack down for Stefan coming up!



Okay people, what did this episode give us besides one crazy traveler b***?!
Well first of all it gave me a little bit of a disappointment....I was actually hoping for a "Ripper" comeback but was desperately disappointed! The whole Katherine is now the cure thing was nothing that surprised me and I so do not like Matts storyline: Hello let the only normal guy in Mystic Falls just be that: NORMAL! And the possibility of Damon and Elena not being together is just killing me. One thing I did like was the new developments and stories that Qetsiyah brought along....this girl is trouble and I like it. Let´s see how the first meet up between the two ex lovers will turn out. Something tells me that it will be kind of messy ;)



What are your thoughts about the episode? What kind of trouble could be coming up? Let´s hear it people!!

Let´s talk tv!!
