The Vampire Diaries | Season 8 Episode 5 - "Coming Home Was a Mistake"


Spoiler Alert!

Like promised, here I am with the new TVD rant and, as always, with pretty good things to say!
This season hasn't disappointed me one bit and this episode wasn't exception.
It had some pretty intense and dramatic scene as well as romantic scenes, my favourite being, obviously the Bonenzo scene, but I'll get to that later.
So, this episode is mostly about Tyler's funeral and, before I get really into the story, I just want to let you know that this isn't the end of Tyler! A lot of people have been like 'stressed out' and upset and mad at Julie for killing him but he will come back. He's going to be the character that ties everything together, which, in my opinion means that our gang is, at some point, going to hell and rescue him as well as, hopefully, Katherine (and I wish Kai as well). Besides that, Julie also said that Tyler is going to be in the season finale so, don't worry.
Ok, now that we got through that, lets get back into the storyline.
Matt informs everyone about Tyler's death so they prepare a kind of funeral for him, but that's when they are met by Damon.
Not much happen to be honest, but everyone is really upset with Damon so what does he do? Goes to Sybil so she can free himself from the mind control. Let's just say that she doesn't really like the fact that he still has some attachements. So, in order for him to be completely hers, she tells him to meet Stefan (and do something that I really don't remember).
Meanwhile, because it's Tyler's funeral, Seline babysitts the twins in her day off, which isn't really a good idea. She takes them to the Carnival which, apparently, isn't anything to worry about but that's when she 'compels' someone to give the twins a goldfish, which is dead. Because of that, Seline tells the twins that she's going to teach them the process of burial, telling them about Cade and making them do magic.
We also find out in this episode something pretty interesting. So, turns out that Tyler left some sort of box with stuff for Matt and, guess what's in that box? Things about Seline! He tells Matt in a letter than he has been looking for a siren named Seline and has pictures of her in that box. He also tells Matt that he wants him to keep going with the search.
To be honest, I really liked the fact that it was Matt the 'first' one to find out about Seline, afterall, his family is tied in some way with the sirens so, that was cool.
Anyway, back to Stefan and Damon.
So, Damon meets with Stefan. Stefan already had a plan, to lock Damon in a coffin until they are done with the Sirens problems but, lets say, his plan don't work out that well because Damon attacks him. Luckily, Caroline appears and knocks Damon out, locking him afterwards.
It seems like most of our problems are solved, kind of. At least, they aren't a 'problem' right now but... That's when everything goes down.
Georgie's body is found and the police calls Alaric's other intern, leaving the armory alone. That way, Sybil got to escape, taking the tuning fork with her and freeing Damon, who fully submits to her.
And now, let's talk about my favourite part of the episode.
Besides the Damon/Stefan/Sybil storyline and the Matt/Tyler storyline, there was also the Bonnie storyline.
Because she was keeping Enzo imprisoned she couldn't go to Tyler's funeral so, she kept trying to get Enzo's humanity back on.
She talks with Caroline and she remembers something. So, what she does is light the cabin where they are in, on fire, while a magical candle is light up keeping Enzo from getting out of there.
The purpose of this isn't Enzo 'being afraid of the fire' but being afraid to be alone, because Bonnie might end up dying, and she kind of does.
Luckily, Enzo gets his humanity back on when e realizes Bonnie is laying on the floor (almost) dead. She manages to get her out of the cabin but, since the candle is still lit, and the only person that can 'un-light' the candle is the person that lit it (Bonnie), Enzo can't get out.
Bonnie wakes up. She sees Enzo and, obviously, she can't let him die in there so she runs inside the cabin, lights down the candle with her hand and Enzo gets them both out of there with his super speed.
They then have a super sweet talk and Bonnie tells him that she won't ever leave him and, of course, they kiss.
Seriously, that scene was just so beautiful! I love Bonenzo! They're the cutest thing right now and I seriously hope they end up together in the end of the series.
Anyway, in the end, almost everything ends up fine. All our characters (apart from Damon) meet at the Carnival for Tyler's funeral which was also a pretty cute scene. Until... Matt goes to Caroline asking her about how are the twins since he hasn't seen them in a while. Caroline starts talking about how big they are and she shows him some pictures of them, and... Seline is in one of the pictures!
As soon as he sees it, Matt warns her and Caroline and Alaric go right away to Alaric's house where Seline was with the twins just to find out no one there and a drawing with them (the twins), Seline and Cade! And that's how the episode ends.
I seriously don't know what's going to happen next but it sure is going to be a lot of trouble. Just now, that is seemed like everything was going fine, everything is wrong again.
Anyway, let me know your predictions for next weeks episodes and, unfortunately, there won't be a new episode this week so, I'll see you in December!
Love,
Daniela.
