Note: These are my opinions and I’m entitled to them and blah blah blah. I’m not going to deal with any negative talk towards me and I have nothing against the actors these are just somethings that were lackluster or things that I didn’t like. That being said, let’s get into it.
1. We first see the Hollow killing flowers. This makes me feel many things.
Firstly, the Hollow has nothing better to do than to just kill a bunch of flowers with her magic? Seriously? I know this is suppose to be threatening, but bodies dropping would have been a lot more concerning than that flower cliche.
Secondly, wow, you’re an asshole. Going all Willy-nilly mirdering flowers.
2. The Hollow’s voice. I know that sounds like I’m attacking the actress but she sounds too sweet to be a villain, and not in a creepy way. Nothing against the actress, her voice is just not intimidating. Which is kind of odd because it’s they did a good job with making her look intimidating.
3. The whole fight (?) scene between the Hollow and Marcel. That scream just flashed me back to Teen Wolf after Lydia had learned to weaponize her screams. (That show is failing and ending TO I would take too much from them).
4. The whole traveller’s motive rehash. This whole “vampires (immortals) are a curse on this Earth” thing is getting old. This guy tied to a chair is no different. Any anyways, witches can be resurrected basically at any point in time meanwhile unless you get a witch to resurrect a vampire, a vampire can’t come back… So by that logic, aren’t witches more of a curse on the Earth than vampires are? Sure, they can live forever but at least they usually stay dead.
5. Kolvina is still unimpressive. Kol’s whole personality is centered around Davina now and it’s just completely exhausting, repetitive and boring. I guess I’m happy that Kol is happy with her, but him bitching and moaning over her is taking away about what I liked about him in the first place. Honestly, he shouldn’t need Davina to decide he wants to change or anything. I can understand that a part of it is probably guilt but still. This love story is kind of boring and it lacks depth for me.
6. If this fundamental foundation of who Elijah is, isn’t the night he killed Tatia and has something to do with Hayley, I’ma be so fucking pissed..
7. Elijah didn’t die for Klaus. He didn’t because he was being a dumb bitch that led him into that situation. Had he not been an irrational, murderous lunatic, he wouldn’t have been in this situation to begin with. Why does every one in this show keep singing his praises?
8. Me at Hayley while dealing with Savage, Blood-Thirsty Elijah: “Hit him in the face! Hit him in the face! Why aren’t you hitting him in the face?! Don’t run, hit him in the face”
9. Wowee! Some great, nameless, harvest girls ya got there D. Why are so many witches in this series love being pompous assholes. God!
10.This episode proves that Hayley, even five years later, sucks at defending herself (and needs a seven year old to save her). She’s better this season, but one good season doesn’t erase the other three she was completely horrible in or back when she was on tvd. You need two more seasons of good Hayley to balance that out if she’s not going to acknowledge she was being a controlling and unfair bitch, which she won’t so.
11. Magical savage to man transformation by walking through a door. I fucking called it, woo!
12. Freya continues to be the literal worst. We’re back at the “we’ll sacrifice whoever it takes for our family” DID YOU LEARN NOTHING FROM LAST SEASON? Jesus. Elijah can handle being trapped in a pendant for a while. It’s not like he’s suffering so chill. He doesn’t need to be put back into flesh immediately.
13. The Hollow did barely did anything this episode aside from throw Marcel across a room and brutally murder a bunch of flowers just by walking past and yet everyone is talking about her next move.
14. “Elijah has only done those things for family and that’s why he’s the best of us. Always has been” Can I get a bullshit? Maybe past Elijah did, maybe TVD Elijah did, but TO Elijah is a whole another entity. A selfish, murderous entity. Honestly, I think Elijah got kidnapped somewhere in between the last time he showed up in TVD and the first season of TO and replaced him with a golem or something. This is the only way to excuse his asshole-ed-ness.
15. This bitch is still killing flowers whilst being not at all threatening.
16. I no longer care about death on this show since they brought Davina back. She’s died twice and came back twice. Her death no longer affects me and I no longer care cause what’s the point if she’s just going to spring back up out of Satan’s nostril next time? Honestly, it seems like they really are trying to make her a rip off of Bonnie.
17. Where the fuck was Vincent this episode? Didn’t Yusuf get promoted to a main? Where the fuck—?
