Some serious drama is set to go down in the February 2nd episode of The Vampire Diaries, putting series stars Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder in what can only be described as one hell of a pickle (at least in the case of Somerhalder’s character; Dobrev’s Nina made get off easy, but we’ll see). There’s a familiar face returning to the series adding a little extra sizzle to the proceedings. If you’ve been following along you should have a pretty good idea who’s coming back to cause a little mayhem.
In the last episode, Klaus (Joseph Morgan) realized Damon (Somerhalder) had resurrected his older brother Elijah (Daniel Gillies). If you take a look at the promo images from The CW, available below, you can sort of piece together that even though Damon brought him back, Elijah is far from his pal. If someone resurrected me I would not grab at their throats as Elijah does. I would maybe thank them, possibly get them a beer, or a coke if they’re underage or straightedge. But not Elijah! He and Klaus, while they may have their differences, have the Salvatore brothers in their clutches and it doesn’t look good. Poor Stefan (Paul Wesley) is being forced into a fire! I guess that’s what you get for plotting to kill an incredibly powerful vampire.
A couple other images show Nina and and Caroline (Candice Accola) in a hospital with Bill Forbes (Jack Coleman ftw!). It kind of takes away from the intensity of the other images, but not everything can be insane, am I right?

What I want to see,(whenever the VD returns to ITV2) is Elena’s reaction to ELijah’s return. Most viewers want them to elope but I think he deserves a clip round the ear for betraying Elena (before they send out wedding invites).
