Dropbox Tip: The quality of the video is lower while streaming so I recommend downloading or using google drive if thats an issue

Damon thinks he is a monster. No wonder, his father treated him like the black sheep of the family and with much contempt when he left a war he didn’t believed in, and then he killed him when he became a vampire, his own father. Stefan, Katherine, Lexi, the Augustine Society, Bonnie at the begging, everybody treated him like he is a bad, unlovable person. Surely, he must have asked himself thousands of time why? And his only answer, must have been because I am a monster. But we know that he is not. The point is that an unjustified bad reputations does a number on you, after feeling of disbelieve and desperation for being treated unfairly when you are fairly young, ever, as an teenager/young adult you start to give people someone to hate justifiably, as an adult accept it, believe what others are saying about you. That is Damon, he is, just a broken man, that has endured way too much, unfairly, because we know that he has a tender heart and I he is very caring and selfless with the people that show him some kindness. Enzo telling him he is a monster, hit him hard, even if he knows he couldn’t have done anything to save him, Enzo is a reminder of everything he felt the moment he had to choose to save himself by doing something he would have never done consciously because it would prove right all the people that always treated him badly, switch off his humanity and become un unfeeling monster. He though those day were over since he is finally with someone he love that loves him back, but Enzo erase everything and he is back to square one, being told unfairly he is a monster and he believes it because Enzo is not just like anybody, he is someone he sacrificed his humanity for. The Whitmore family members Damon killed are far from innocent, generation after generation continue founding the experiments on vampires. From where Elena’s father got the money for his research? From Aaron’s parents and when they died, from Aaron’s untie Sarah, his legal guardian and trustee of his money. Than when Damon killed her, Wes stepped in, he is not family and he couldn’t have stepped in, becoming Aaron legal guardian and trustee unless untie Sarah left precise instructions. Aaron is like Elena in denial, his family is his family the one he loved before knowing what they have done, of course he is going to think they are innocent!! Elena too had a terrible reality check and she accepted the reality, that her loving dad was torturing vampires, like her and Damon, and her boyfriend was in the receiving hand of all of that. So even if accepting that is painful and horrible, by throwing her dad journal into the fire, she faces reality and had to admit to herself that her memory of her dad and reality don’t match. It is not the first time that TVD, explore the implication of what Nazi did to people, Damon even mention Mengele to Wes as if it wasn't clear enough. They go deep into the psychology of the monsters, their lack of any empathy, the inhumane treatment of their unwilling innocent people that are not people to them they do not even torture them but trip them of their humanity by making them numbers. They experiment on, not in the name of science as they claim they are doing to give to what their are doing an appearance of normalcy of justifiable noble aim, but to give in to darkest raging deeply disturbing wild psychopathy, free of any consequences. The writers explore how people perceives as normal could become such monsters and how survivor could endured and process the trauma of it.

The writers are also so good at make you fell why characters fell in love with villains like Katherine. They know the rule of writing and applied very well “don’t tell, show” and they go a step further, by make the viewers feel those feelings of attractions, fascination, other characters feel for Katherine even after all she has done, you can’t help but liking her at this point and almost feel sorry for her. Excellent writing, unparalleled character building charged with the capability for real emotional enticement.

I think Enzo was special because he's just been there for the longest, around 70 years. Wes said that Vampires were able to withstand more punishment after being exposed to it sort of like building muscle, so I think Enzo just got more and more resilient and harder to go too far with.

He has a daylight ring. Can't explain where he got it without spoiling it, but pretty sure Wes just took it from him and gave it back so he could go after Damon.

I think that injecting Enzo with the thing and letting him loose they might be scared of retaliation. Also keeping Enzo captive and experimenting on others, allow them to have an insurance policy to keep them safe, that is Enzo, they use him to protect themselves and to do staff like killing people that are an inconvenience.

Every time I watch this episode I get so sad when Stephan says to Aaron: not all of us are like my brother. Stephan has just learned that his brother was tortured and humiliated every day for 5 years. Damon was put in a cage and paraded like an animal. His name was taken from him and he was just a number. Then he manages to escape and keeps all these bad things to himself so Stephan doesn't feel guilty. Once again he protects his little brother. Stephan doesn't have to be okay with what Damon did to the Whitmores and he shouldn't defend it but the fact that he immediately condemns Damon again makes me angry and sad.

Thank you for making this point, I think the same. Nobody saying that Damon going on a killing spree of the Whitmore Family was of ok. But that family are real monsters, and what they did to Damon and Enzo and Jessy isn't justifiable in any form or shape. And Stefan instead of being supportive and understanding of his brother that went through an incredible ordeal, should know better and measure it with his ordeal. Didn't he killed that officer after they open the safe, didn't he do much worse thing than Damon ever did? At list Damon had his reasons, we can understand, what are the reason for Stefan to tear people apart? And nobody should justify him by saying he can't help he is a ripper because when he has his humanity off he can control himself perfectly. Stefan has a character was written to be intrinsically endemically self-righteous, where the things his brother does are condemnable always and he had to bear them by himself and never being helped and pay harshly for the mistakes he makes, and think of himself badly, while Stefan get away with the worse thing ever and he still blissfully unaware of his faults, bare no consequences for his actions, has a big brother that is very careful not to burden him with anything, and everybody bend backward to forgive him for his mistakes. So obviously he has a vision of himself as if his is better than his brother and he isn't. But don't we love that Stefan is so fallible, not self aware, mean to his brother, it makes Damon in comparison look much more relatable, human, and move compassion in the viewers, sparks feeling like the one you wrote about in the comment, everybody felt the same. That's good writing.

Conversation between Damon and Jeremy in season 1, episode 22: Jeremy: “Anna said that vampires don't have to feel pain. That they could turn it off if they shut out their humanity.” Damon: “That's very true.” Jeremy: “Is it easier that way?” Damon: “Is what easier?” Jeremy: “Life.” Damon: “Life sucks either way, Jeremy. But at least if you are a vampire, you don't have to feel bad about it if you don't want to.” Jeremy: “Is that what you did?” Damon: “I did it for uh.. I did it for a very long time. And life was a lot easier.” That conversation between Jeremy and Damon hits differently now that we know more about Damon’s past. It's tragic how Damon can't see the good in him even with all he has done for those he loves. It shows how wounded his soul is. He doesn't see his worth. It is understandable Elena’s reaction to her father. While growing up, he was a good father to her, then found out about the horrendous torture he inflicted on vampires that whiplash Elena. I love that Damon didn't entertain Elena's attempt to find that good incident from her father's experiment logbook. I liked it when he was reasoning with Elena believing her father would have treated her differently because she was his daughter. It is common to see parents with that childlike wonder, but eventually, we see them as human beings with virtue and flaws. Elena thought telling Damon that she stood by her choice would have put closure to the argument, but Damon surprised her by ending their relationship. If Damon and Elena had ended their fight resulting in kisses and hugs, their relationship would have ceased. In their dangerous world, there is no room for unicorns or pretend, and Damon doesn't pretend.

Damon still had his daylight ring when he escaped in the 50s
