The season 3 finale of The Vampire Diaries sees a dramatic shift in the narrative with Elena's transformation into a vampire. The episode explores the emotional turmoil of Elena amidst the chaos of vampires and supernatural beings, culminating in a life-altering decision and a shocking twist that sets the stage for season 4.
made an impact since its premiere. However, before the halfway point, it started facing some narrative issues. This was when Klaus and the Originals showed up, and while it was a time whendeepened and expanded, it seemed to take a different path than what it initially set out to do. The series format requires it to go in varying directions, especially with so many characters and side plots, but you have to be careful not to fall into repetition.
With the Originals arriving in Mystic Falls, a lot starts to change. Alaric’s always been against vampires, and now, as an Enhanced Original Vampire, he still wants to end it all. At the same time, the hybrid Tyler is furious with Klaus , which leads to a fight when he tries to save Elena from him.
Meanwhile, Elena, after recovering from her accident during the rescue process, gets in a car with Matt to drive away from Mystic Falls and all the vampire chaos. It is at this moment that one of the most special and memorable scenes intakes place. In a phone call with Damon, she reveals that she will always choose Stefan. However, in this moment, it’s clear that she’s not sure about her feelings, since her decision about which brother she loves has always been based on gratitude from the start.
Elena tells Damon that if the two of them had met before Stefan showed up, things might have been different. But in a flashback, it’s shown that this did indeed happen; still, Damon erased this memory from her mind in order to protect her. That’s when an accident happens in the same place Elena’s parents died. When the car falls off the Wickery Bridge into the river, Stefan appears, but she asks him to save Matt first. That’s when she drowns and dies.
With that, Season 4 could finally explore what it would be like to have the main character, whom everyone was getting tired of watching, become a vampire. Unfortunately, even though this was a good start to the story, Elena was the human who was disputed by two brothers and who always needed to be protected and rescued. Maintaining this dynamic over three seasons of around 20 episodes each was becoming a little tiresome for the audience.
