    Stalling the Fans

    Alaric is in jail accused by Dr. Fells of murder of the founders. Sheriff Forbes advises Damon to not interfere in her investigation. Damon recalls with Stefan the year of 1912, when a serial-killer killed founders in Mystic Falls. Meanwhile Elena and Matt break in the house of Dr. Fells to search for evidence to prove the innocence of Alaric. Damon and Rebekah forces Stefan to drink human blood and Matt and Elena witnesses Stefan biting the neck of a girl.

    "1912" is an episode where nothing happens; therefore, there is nothing to write about this episode. My vote is six.

    Title (Brazil): "1912"

    a massive step from previous episodes

    I liked this one, the flashbacks Rebecca was actually likeable in this episode she had a good banter with the boys, an enjoyable episode

    back to yesteryear

    We go back in time, well, really just loads of back-flashes really. I much prefer the vampire in high school storyline, but okay... One thing I gotta tell you, the other reviewer here, our friend from Brazil, he is saying that nothing happens in this episode, it just stalls the fans. If nothing happens here, from his perspective, then I would hate to see a rough day... Okay, the moment I saw that old Model T Ford or whatever, heart sinks a bit, but no, only "little whiles" spend in the past. Missed Candice Accola though.

    And my apologies for having neglected Claire Holt in previous review, she is truly great... you will notice that the blonde female vampires are especially striking... yeah, that's the word exactly. Striking. Shudder!

    PIty about the quote IMDb is currently not accepting (I tried!), the halfway one about "half the woods were torn down" where the punchline is missing. Damon's cute nickname for Rebekah, no, not "bonnie Beks"...

    One thing though, all this bloodless gore... people, just do not think a decapitated body is gonna be like that Blood is gonna spurt like a geyser.
