The Vampire Diaries - Season 5/ Episode 4 - Mystic Falls Messenger (recap/synopis)

1. We opened with amnesic Stefan reading his journals. "Let me guess, fun brother," he said, referring to himself. "Safe brother," he said, motioning to Damon.  Damon crashed the car and proved he is definitely the most fun brother.


2. Caroline, who's been boning up on all things biology to help Stefan, impress Dr. Maxfield, and spend time with her tutor Jesse, told Elena she planned to take him with her to study in the graveyard during the festivities.

3. Stefan was getting thirsty looking at the waitress. Not that he's a shrink ("I'm no shrink, right?" "Right."), but maybe he only turned Ripper when he drank human blood from the vein because of all the trauma and guilt associated with his early days as a vamp. Since he can't remember any of that, maybe he could drink and not kill now. Damon told him not to find out.

4. The next scene was the funniest of the episode. We got to see Jeremy doing shirtless push-ups on a rug at Salvatore Mansion. Bonnie likes to watch, too. "You working out is my main source of entertainment," she told him. He's just working off some extra adrenaline. "And every girl on the other side thanks you for it." Sigh. Swoon. Rewind. 

5. Matt phoned Jeremy to come to his place. Matt was determined to find out the cause of his blackouts, so he'd set cameras up all over the house. Like Damon and Elena, who'd tried contacting Bonnie for help with Stefan, he's pissed that Bonnie's not returning his calls to help figure out what Nadia has done.

6.  Stefan cornered the waitress he'd been eying earlier and compelled her not to scream or move. The thought of killing her scares him, but the hunger inside of him is just so much more powerful.  Damon swooped in to stop him right before Stefan's fangs made contact. 


7. Damon and Elena took Stefan to the family crypt, to keep him away from humans until they could fix his memory. Was that really a good idea considering the graveyard was going to be filled with people that day? Stefan asked if there was anyone in there he hadn't killed. Damon got a text from Jeremy saying he needed to speak to him alone. That gave Stefan and Elena a chance to catch up.
8. We'd already learned that Damon hadn't told Stefan much about Elena yet. Stefan said he hoped Elena's backstory wasn't as tragic as his. Ha! She rattled off all those she'd lost. "How do I not remember you?" Stefan said. "You're smart, you're pretty, you're funny. Obviously you're the strongest woman in the world if you managed to figure out a way to get through all of that." She said she surrounds herself with amazing people who help her through it, like him. "Bonded by death," he said. "Please don't tell me that we met in a cemetery." Technically, no. To the school they went.
9. Elena reenacted them running into each other as she walked out of the men's room. Wait, maybe he was coming from the other direction. Perhaps they should try it again. Colliding bodies with Stefan would be a great way to spend an afternoon, I'm sure, but it wasn't helping him remember anything. And since the football team had entered the hallway, and one player was bleeding, it was time for Elena to try something else.

10.She took Stefan outside and showed him how to jump to the roof of the building. So no one who'd just been watching the football team practice or play a game was around to see that? Stefan figured out they'd dated. "I may have amnesia, but I'm not an idiot. I'm a 164-year-old vampire who went back to high school, so I'm guessing that had something to do with you," he said. He guessed his Ripper tendencies were the turnoff. No. He was the most compassionate person she knew, she said. He was always in control. So he bored her? No. It was her, she said. Becoming a vamp had changed her. He wanted to know how she became a vampire. She said she'd show him. Then she fell backwards off the roof, because again, she was sure no one would see? I'll forgive that because that was much cooler than the motorcycle scene when Elena was learning the physical joys of being a vamp.
11.Jesse had accepted Caroline's invitation to study in the graveyard. She told him she wasn't talking to her boyfriend and explained she just wanted to hang out with him that day because he was smart and nice
and available. He made a classic look over there and when you turn back around, I'll kiss you move. Good kisser. He can stick around. He apologized. He'd just been wanting to do that since the day he met her. Back to studying.
12. Jeremy did his best to break Bonnie's death to Damon gently. "Don't you say it, Jeremy. Don't you dare," Damon pleaded. Damon didn't want to hear Jeremy say she was dead, because if he did, everything in Elena's life sucks again. Too bad. "Bonnie's dead." Damon was pissed. Like, snarling pissed. When he walked toward Jeremy, you thought he was going to grab him and lock him up so he couldn't share the news with anyone else. Instead, he embraced him. AHHHHHH, Damon.
13 Elena took Stefan on a walk down memory lane that ended with them gazing upon Wickery Bridge. She explained about her two accidents there, and what a great boyfriend he was as we heard. Stefan said this was working -- his urge to feed had settled. He could see why he was different around her and not a monster. He scared himself when he saw his vamp face in the mirror. She told him she'd never been afraid of him, and showed him how she'd touched that face when she saw him for who he is and told him not to hide.  She went to move her left hand away. "Don't," he said, taking it and placing it back on his face.They leaned in and were about to kiss when she remembered she's with Damon. And she blurted that out. "You're with my brother? And neither of you thought that was something I should know?" he asked. She said they weren't hiding it from him. "And just like that, the hunger returns," Stefan said. And he was gone.
