First up is the title for The Vampire Diaries Season 4, Episode 2 will be titled “Memorial.” With a title like this, it could only mean that someone is saying goodbye to something…..

Bonnie will go down a dark path, according to Kat Graham (via E! News): “Bonnie is going to start to dabble in some crazy things. We get to see her going into another side maybe fans have yet to see her in. It’s cool.”

And according to Paul Wesley, Stefan has a lot of guilt and rage over the fact that he was the one who caused [Elena's death].

“I’d like to see Stefan go to the dark side… I personally prefer Ripper Stefan, so I’m hoping that the guilt drives him to a place of darkness.”

He further explained that Elena may become closer to Damon (Ian Somerhalder) saying: “Elena’s remembering some things from when Damon compelled her, so I think it’s sort of building back to romance with the two of them. Stefan is being her rock.

“But you know, at a certain point Elena may blame him, he may turn to some darkness. I’ve heard some rumours about Stefan having a new love interest, but I don’t know if that’s true or not.”

Still on Elena, according to TV Guide now that Elena will transition, in the premiere episode she will remember a very important moment from Season 2: when Damon told her he loved her. But unlike past flashbacks we’ve seen, Elena doesn’t realize right away that she’s watching a memory from the past rather than experiencing a moment in the present.

Michael Trevino told Wetpaint Entertainment, “I’m playing Klaus and I would like to think that it goes on for a few episodes but I think the run as Klaus might end sooner rather than later.”

Trevino went on to say, “[Tyler] is not lost forever. I think eventually Tyler will come back into Tyler’s body and we should be all good.” He and Caroline will have to deal with whatever Klaus did in his body.

Finally, for The Vampire Diaries season 4 in general, Trevino revealed, “Tyler is going to end up going through a lot. There’s going to be a lot of action, a lot of blood. Maybe some bullets, maybe some stakes. But at the end of the day Tyler’s shirtless a good amount of the time.”

And just what (or why) is Nina Dobrev kissing this Zebra foal???

There are many theories out there – One being that now that she’s a vampire, Elena needs blood. Instead of feasting on people, she decides to stick to the animal diet. (Matt [Zach Roerig] is relieved he won’t have to be her human blood bag.) Unfortunately, she quickly gets bored with rabbits and decides to pursue something a little more exotic. She breaks into the Mystic Falls Zoo, drains a zebra, and leaves a bloody mess for the zookeeper. Watch out, gazelles. You’re next on Elena’s “Must Try” menu.
