But I have to tell you guys: This show works.
Yes, its going big, but thats what makes it so fun (amongst other things).

I am all in onLegacies.
Lets get into week three.
Translation: The gargoyle murders both men rather viciously.
Back in present day, Ric is studying the knife while the gargoyle lurks outside his window.
The students arrive at the Mystic Falls town square memories!!!
), when the gargoyle attacks.
Thankfully, Lizzie is able to complete a spell before the gargoyle scratches her because said scratch paralyzes her.
Thankfully, the vampire part of her will help her heal quickly.
From there, the two girls really start to get to know each other.
As far as Lizzies concerned, Josie tells Hope that Lizzies sensitive.
She explains, Our mom is going on these really long recruitment missions recently.
Its why shes extra testy.
She just really misses her.
And of course, missing a mom is something Hope knows all too well.
They need to go help Lizzie.
But its okay because MG is obviously using her to make Lizzie jealous.
Only, he finds her a few minutes later with Kaleb on the bus.
And theyre not kissing.
Rather, Kaleb is feeding from her, a fact he asks MG to keep secret.
As he puts it, vamps over tramps.
First, they run into Alaric, who has a theory about why the gargoyle didnt kill him.
But the gargoyle doesnt stab Ric, and when it hesitates, they attack.
He then gives Dorian the knife as hes clearly about to hit the road.
They even ate rabbit.
Luckily for them, Jeremy Gilbert(!!!)
has been watching them per Alarics request.
For those of you who dont know, Jeremy is fromThe Vampire Diariesand is essentially a son to Ric.
He first found out about vampires when he, well, dated one.
(Not to mention that his sister was also dating one at the time.)
Now, Jeremy has been tasked with keeping Raf and Landon safe.
We end on Danas scream.
