Bonnie (Kat Graham) tries to be realistic about how the changes on the Other Side will affect her existence in the April 24 installment of The Vampire Diaries.
The CW has released details of the episode titled “Man on Fire,” which include Markos (Raffi Barsoumian) enlisting the help of Sloan (Caitlin McHugh) for a ritual designed to break a curse against the Travelers.
FLASHBACKS TO THE 1960s — Stefan (Paul Wesley) tries to distract Elena (Nina Dobrev) from obsessing about the state of her relationship with Damon (Ian Somerhalder), while Bonnie (Kat Graham) does her best to be realistic about how the changes happening on the Other Side will affect her existence as the Anchor. Damon demands the Traveler knife, forcing Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) and Matt (Zach Roerig) to admit it has gone missing. Through flashbacks to election night, 1960, Enzo (guest star Michael Malarkey) reveals to Elena, Stefan and Bonnie that he has learned what happened to his long-lost love, Maggie (guest star Heather Hemmens), and then, with the unwilling help of Liv (guest star Penelope Mitchell) and Luke (guest star Chris Brochu), things take an ugly turn. Trying to calm Enzo down, Damon intervenes, but his words cause Enzo to make a desperate and dangerous decision that leads to a violent confrontation with Stefan. Finally, Markos (guest star Raffi Barsoumian) enlists Sloan’s (guest star Caitlin McHugh) help in a ritual designed to break an ancient curse against the Travelers. Tyler (Michael Trevino) is forced to play a dangerous part in the ritual, while witnessing the incredible power the Travelers now possess.
The Vampire Diaries “Man on Fire” was directed by Michael Allowitz and written by Melinda Hsu Taylor & Matthew D’Ambrosio. The episode airs Thursday, April 24, at 9pm on The CW.
