So he really needed to make decisions for himself, mostly because of Bonnie sort of being the final straw. We don’t know when she’ll be back, or what will come of her. “It couldn’t really line up with Bonnie’s journey, because her journey, right now, is never-ending. “Our decision to say goodbye to Jeremy in the middle of the season was really born out of wanting to feel like his character made a strong decision in spite of his circumstance,” Plec said. The Bonnie-Jeremy off/on relationship ended fairly unresolved - Jeremy had a lovely moment “with” Bonnie in the previous episode, “The Day I Tried To Live,” but she wasn’t aware he was watching her in the prison world as she attempted (and then fought against) a suicide attempt - as he left Mystic Falls while her fate (and potential return home) was very much up in the air. Jeremy’s continued existence also leaves the door open for McQueen to return, a chance he said he’d welcome “if they invite me!” “He has a standing invite for weddings, funerals and whatever else might come along,” Plec assured. They kept filming the entire time, which was cool.” The last scene I shot was Enzo ( Michael Malarkey) stepping on my face, so I was like, all right, whatever! Grismer shot nine times before I was like, ‘So, Grismer, do we have the shot down?’ and all of a sudden they tilt the camera up to the door, and they all come running out with these superhero costumes and some cake, and I got my face shoved in the cake. “The scenes where we were at the Mystic Grill drinking and stuff, it was a fun day. “The scenes were kind of fun,” McQueen said. “He made it out, he’s going to be great, and succeed.”Īnd for McQueen, Jeremy exiting the show alive meant that his final days on set got to be filled with (mostly) lighter scenes. “It feels like a victory in a way: he got out,” Young added. That’s why he felt it was right for him to become a man.” “Julie’s whole thing was, look, we’ve seen Jeremy die a few times, and we just really wanted to feel special, and official, too,” Dries acknowledged.

Jeremy making it out alive is an accomplishment by itself. “And so it felt like it was his destiny - that’s what he’s good at.” “Him being an artist would feel like he’s settling,” The Vampire Diaries showrunner (and co-writer of “Stay” with co-executive producer Brian Young) Caroline Dries added. Though he’s going to be in trouble if Elena ever finds out.” Jeremy’s secret is, ‘I’m forever changed, but I’m going to use this change for the powers of good.’ Of course, Elena would never go for it, because she’s trying to be the protective big sister, but Alaric gets it … It’s going to be Alaric’s little secret for a while.
For Elena, she believed was get out, be normal, go to art school, and ’ll be fine. “As Elena ( Nina Dobrev) said, ‘Maybe smoking a joint with my brother is the most normal thing I’ve ever done.’ Jeremy was someone who went through so much, and needed a purpose. McQueen.“I think the biggest point we wanted to make was when you come out of Mystic Falls, there is no such thing as a ‘normal life,'” The Vampire Diaries executive producer Julie Plec told reporters. The threat of her imminent demise felt real, and I found myself mourning the idea of her loss much more than next week’s farewell to Steven R. I mean, let’s be real, any chance Kat Graham gets to really sink her teeth into a scene is going to provide a scene well-worth watching and last night’s episode was no exception. My grumblings aside, the episode was stellar. Bonnie’s birthday coinciding with her own plans of suicide, as well as Jeremy deciding whether or not he should move on, and both Caroline and strangely, Kai, coping with a strange new wave of awful emotions - these were meaty and wonderful things to witness! If only they weren’t every so often zapped of their emotional oomph with the odd joke about movies like The Bodyguard. Kai underlines this story problem every time he drops a reference (however hilarious) that is woefully out of date.įor me, that strange incongruity was the only thing about last night’s episode of the Vampire Diaries that fell flat. Unfortunately, when you make that prison world the year 1994, you immediately drain it of just the wrong amount of menace. To exist in the same world as your own but in a different time? With no access to those you love? Grim indeed. In theory, the prison world that was holding Kai captive (until it wasn’t), is a brilliant and terrifying concept.
