Nopes.

I hope that Elena in a future episode SEES Stefan killing someone/ripping someone apart. At the moment, she has only heard about what he’s done, not seen it with her own eyes. And she needs to do that, see it for herself, to realize.

Elena’s outfit in this clip is reminding me a lot of what Katherine wore when she was helping the brothers read through the grimoires.

Klaus is invincible…. Elijah made that clear.  The only hope to kill Klaus was during the ritual when he would have been vulnerable.  That ship sailed and now there is no killing Klaus. 

The dagger and white ash did not affect Klaus due to his werewolf gene.

There is no beheading an Original, no heart snatch can be done, fire does not bother them, a werewolf bite does not affect them and they do not need a day walking ring.  The Original vampire family were cursed to live forever.  The dagger with the white oak ash will put an Original into hibernation only.  Once the dagger is removed they wake up. 

I would think that by now the title to the Salvatore house has been turned back over to Damon.  The whole reason to put the house into Elena’s name was to create a safe house for her. She is living back at her own house, the Gilbert house, now.

1. Damon makes it too easy. He owes his brother that he´s still there and can sit comfortably at home.
2. If you truly love someone,you can´t stop. Not even the if the person changes and becomes evil. btw: NOT BY CHOICE!
3. There is a 16/17 year old girl. She lost her beloved adoptive parents by an accident. She had to learn that her biological mother was a vampire and her unloved uncle was her real father. Her mother burned in front of her eyes,her father sacrificed himself for her.A monster-vampire has hunted and killed her and she had to watch how her beloved aunt´s heart was ripp out.

Elena has taken a look into hell already,so WHY should she burst out in tears over the death of a woman she barely knew??

Oh yeah.  I didn’t think of that… :-o

I am so happy TVD is back. I live in Germany and watch via Internet the next day. Bought season 1+2 . I don’t understand all this shipping. Ok Stefan has gone bad and will go even badder. He gave himself over to Klaus to rescue Damon. He is still protecting Damon and Elena. I think the big theme is not Stelena or Delena but the love between the Salvatore brothers. And he chose Andie because he knows his brother. He knows that Damon cared for her.Everybody is doing their part but Elena is starting to annoy me. On the other hand the girl just turned 18. Gotta cut her some slack.What worries me is the fact that Alaric is drinking and Jeremy is back on drugs. I like the dynamic beween Caroline and Tyler. But I hope Mrs Lockwood gets killed soon. I hate her. Always did. As for Klaus he can be killed. Soon or later he will be crossing the riverStyx. I believe that a very powerful witch can kill Klaus. Gotta thank mother nature! I enjoy TVD and I enjoy all the comments. I think it is the best TV show up til now.

these ppl who hate on elena now, STOP! you havent even seen the episode yet.

This is typical Elena behavior towards Damon.  As far as she is concerned, her needs and Stefan’s needs will always come first and Damon needs to stop what he is doing and come help her, or Stefan, whichever the case may be.  Nothing has changed here and her desire to find Stefan and bring him back will put Damon at risk.  Damon is in love with Elena and will do whatever is necessary to protect her.  Actually, Elena seemed more annoyed that Damon would not answer her multiple phone calls because she had news about Stefan, rather than being upset that Stefan killed Andie.  Elena is blinded by her love for Stefan.  She will have to see first hand exactly what Stefan is capable of as a “ripper. 

Personally, I could care less that Stefan killed Andie, but she was obviously Damon’s friend.  I reiterate … friend only.
I believe Stefan used Andie as “shock value” to get his point across to Damon to let him go and stop trying to find him.  Stefan did not want Klaus confronting Damon and while killing Andie was as a horrible thing to do, Stefan at this point is protecting Damon.  Obviously by the phone call Stefan made to Elena, his emotions were running “high”.  His silence was deafening.  

Once Stefan fully embraces his vampire nature and flips his switch, he will wallow in it, love it and will be gone for a long time.  Klaus will be his new best friend.  Damon has seen this behavior before and knows just how dangerous Stefan will be.  There is no way Damon will leave Elena unprotected.  

In this web clip, Damon thinks Stefan is a full blown ripper and knows he will have to let him go.  Elena telling Damon that Stefan called has him thinking maybe that is not so.

I cannot wait until Thursday.  I think the writers have really upped the ante this season.  All the dynamics of the show are changing.  I am loving it.

ps:  Please stop the ridiculous “shipping wars”.  There is a hell of a
lot more going on here than Stelena vs Delena  – that ship has sailed
and has become infantile.

Geez people, have some patience. We’re hardly even 2 episodes in and already you’re all complaining about the direction of the show and how the characters are expressing their emotions? Just relax, the writers of the show are brilliant. There is a plan in store and I’m sure it will be worth a few episodes of “mopey Elena.” 

Agree! Some here expect that it´s all about a certain thing in TVD.  This is stupid and they´ll be pretty disappointed!

Umm.. did you watch the video? If you did and you are still saying this, well I don’t know what to say. 

Elena didn’t dwell on Stefan killing Andie.  We shouldn’t dwell on it for too long either.  Stefan killed Andie as a warning to Damon.  Damon has killed too and justified it in his own mind.  They’re both capable of murder.  They’re both capable of remorse.  They’re both redeemable.  Klaus on the other hand.  He’s so supernatural, he’s probably mostly if not completely disconnected from his humanity.  If we really want to someone to rally against, it should be Klaus. 

No one’s bashing Stefan here, at least I am not. I’m LOVE this new Stefan. Elena is a tad dumb and selfish though, don’t you think? 

See my opinion differs from most. I dont think Elena was side stepping Stefan’s attack on Andie at all. To me I believe that by Elena telling Damon that he called when she did was sort of reassurance to Damon that his brother is still good I mean why else would he be calling. To reaffirm his hope. Yes killing Andie was tragic (I think I am the only person who LIKED her with Damon) but Stefan is still good (somewhere).

No, Lexi and Andie are not equal. Lexi was Stefan’s best friend and Andie was Damon’s jump off.  At the end of the day, Stefan and Damon are vampires. Vampires kill people, Caroline has killed people and will kill again I am sure.  Hopefully, Caroline’s killing spree will start with Carol Lockwood.  If Elena forgave Damon for what he did to Jeremy and Bonnie, killing Damon’s jump off is no biggie.

Klaus is the almighty puppet master in all this.  :)

What I would like to know is: Elena knows that Andie is dead and why.  She also knows that Damon has met Stefan?

I’m probably going to get hate for this but I’m going to say
it. As a “non-shipper” (who really isn’t into “shipping”
couples) it seems like a lot of people that are being hard on Elena for how she
is reacting to this Stefan situation are Delena shippers. It makes sense, you
want Elena to turn away from Stefan because you prefer the Damon/Elena
relationship and Elena being disgusted with Stefan gets you one step closer to
that. However, I think it’s unrealistic for Elena to suddenly go, “Oh my!
Stefan is such a monster!” A- She probably thinks Stefan is killing people
like this because Klaus is making him (which is kind of true although we see
that a large part of Stefan enjoys it). B- Like it or not, she loves Stefan.
She may not know the entirety of how dark Stefan can get, but she DOES know
that he is a vampire who has killed people. She knows that he is capable of
darkness and something she loves about him has been his struggle to fight that.
Elena loves him. He loves her. It’s a reality of the show.

I don’t think she has double standards right now (emphasized the phrase right
now, she may have them in the future, who am I to predict?), because basically,
she’s under the impression that Klaus is making do Stefan do all of these
horrible things. What Damon did to her in the past–killing Jeremy, compelling
Caroline, etc, was not forced and Elena knew well that Damon was doing them on
his own free will. I’m not saying that what’s happening with Stefan is all
because of Klaus, I actually think the contrary, as we know a little bit more
about Stefan’s dark side than Elena does. However, I don’t agree with this
sentiment that “Stefan gets away with everything and Damon gets in trouble
for everything.” I understand that Stefan during S1 and S2 had flaws, but remember,
Stefan wasn’t going around killing people and feeding off sorority girls during
those seasons (you get the idea :P). Not saying that Stefan’s better (it’s in a
vampire’s nature to kill) but in Elena’s standards, those things are worthy of
being called out.

I don’t think Elena is being like Bella Swan—but she is in
love with Stefan, which means she’s not going to give up on him. But unlike
Bella, who seems to lack a backbone and ability to think without the help of a
man, Elena is making her own choices and being proactive. She’s not going to
back down just because Damon tells her to. She’s strong like that. Or maybe
not. I’m sorry, but being attached to the person you love and not wanting to
give up on them is not a crime to me. I mean, if Elena was the type to give up
on Stefan so easily, I’m sure she would also be the type to also have already
given up on Damon. The fact is, one of Elena’s biggest strengths and weaknesses
is her tendencies to see the good in people and not give up on them. I think,
in the future, something drastic will happen to alter her views of Stefan, but
for now, she’s determined to fight for love. I don’t’ see what’s wrong with
that.

You don’t think Elena is blinded by her love for Stefan when he is leaving bodies up and down the Eastern Seaboard and yet she wants him back?

Elena has a tremendous loving heart and has the ability to forgive Stefan and Damon because of her love for them both.  She went to Damon when he was dying, she will want to go to Stefan to save him.  Make no mistake, Elena loves both brothers and will ALWAYS forgive their misdeeds. 

Agreed! Good point Kathleen :)

That may be true for some people (the “Delena shipper” part of the comment) but I don’t think it’s fair to generalize. I’m all about Damon and yet somehow I manage to agree with the rest of your comment ;) I think everyone needs to lay off Elena a bit, we haven’t even seen the episode yet. Put away the claws people! It’s hardly fair to make an assumption based on a 1 minute long clip.

Elena is grieving. Grief is a complicated process and I don’t think we’ve ever seen Elena grieve quite so much all at one time. Denial is a large part of that process, she needs to go through it, all of it, and I think we should just reserve judgment. She’s a fictional character for one thing, and is it really anyone elses job to say how someone should grieve or love? Let’s just enjoy watching the journey for all of the characters. They’re about to explore some foreign territory and I think we’ll see some different “out of character” types of reactions out of all of them.

Umm, right now Elena has only dated and slepted with Stefan.(out of the two Salvatore brothers)  Stefan is her boyfriend.    Elena has her own mind and wants what she wants.  Elena loves and wants her love back.  She was sympathetic when someone Damon truly cared for died…Rose.     Elena made clear to Damon when she said…”it will always be Stefan”  Killing Andie was (my opinion) Stefans way of protecting everyone he loves.  Elena has seen alot of people come and go in  her life.  For now Elena doesn’t know or think that the man she loves would intentionally kill anyone unless there was a good reason… Klaus. Coming down on  Elena because she’s not caring about a gal that Damon made very clear he uses by compeling her to do what he wanted isn’t right.  She’ll probably feel bad.  But, she wants her love back and I love how strong  is becoming.
