Sidebar: Michael Trevino does a fine job playing KiT. I see (appropriate) differences in his mannerisms and even his diction, but I have to wonder if that's how it would really work. I mean, while a given voice itself comes with the equipment, accent is a learned thing. If Klaus's essence is running the KiT show, where is his accent? I realize it's probably a better meta-choice not to make Michael Trevino try to ape Joseph Morgan, but the accent issue takes me out of the moment during every single scene. I repeat: I don't blame Trevino. I just think this is a risk of all A-in-B's Body plots, particularly when the two characters and actors have such starkly different accents, in the first place.
Hospital. A Reverend Young (Michael Reilly Burke, see Vegas and Revenge) confronts Dr. Meredith Fell in the hallway. He's not there to get his blood pressure checked. He and his minions are there on Council Orders to secure the blood bank and sweep the rooms for vamps, among other things. He brags that unlike some people from founding families, he has no conflicting interests, and adds that since Alaric told the Council everything, Mere had better start looking for a new job.
Sidebar: Or...what, exactly? Is the Council going to tell the Virginia State licensing board that Meredith uses vampire blood to heal people? That ought to go over well. Don't even get me started on Young being a minister. I'll either rave about that later, or just try to block it out. I haven't decided yet.
Matt's hospital room. As Matt dresses and gets ready to check out, he vents to Caroline that it's all his fault Elena is going to be a vampire. How, exactly, Pudding Pop? I mean, yeah, you were driving, but you swerved to avoid Rebekah. Stefan saved you first, but you were unconscious, while the very conscious Elena probably had time to unbuckle hear seatbelt. Blame pretty much everyone except yourself. He doesn't listen. Caroline asks Matt to shush up the vampire talk since she's a fugitive. When Matt asks why she's still there, Caroline breaks down. Tyler's dead and she doesn't have anywhere to go. Matt hugs her, but then there's a knock on the door. Caroline whooshes out of view. It's one of Rev. Young's minions, just sweeping the rooms. Thankfully, he doesn't see our vampire Barbie. We cut to...
