The stills and synopsis from next week’s episode of The Vampire Diaries, “Black Hole Sun,” show us that not all things are right in the town of Mystic Falls.

Elena is getting used to not being in love with Damon, Stefan is forced to stick around, and Matt has problems of his own to deal with. And that’s just a bite of what’s going to be happening next week on The Vampire Diaries.

The synopsis for the episode reads: “When Damon and Bonnie realize that uncovering a time in Damon’s past may provide clues to finding their way home, Damon is forced to relive one of the worst days of his life. After an awkward run-in with Jo at the hospital, Alaric steps in to help Jeremy get his life together and cope with the loss of Bonnie. Elsewhere, Stefan attempts to show Elena what it’s like to start over and create a new identity, while an unsuspecting Matt finds himself in a disturbing situation when Tripp lets him in on a dark secret. Lastly, Stefan, who is desperate to regain some normalcy in his life, is stunned when an unexpected visitor shows up.”
