Alaric will try to get to the bottom of when Elena first fell for Damon, while Bonnie and Damon try to figure out where/when they are when The Vampire Diaries returns tonight with “The Yellow Ledbetter”!

Last week’s episode of The Vampire Diaries shocked us when Elena revealed to Alaric that she wanted him to compel her to forget that she ever loved Damon. This on the heels of her drugging herself to see him since he was ripped away from her 3 months or so ago, seems like a bit of a rash decision.

We also saw in the preview for this week that Damon and Bonnie are stuck in what seems to be another dimension, or another time? All we know is that the promo shows them wandering around a seemingly deserted Mystic Falls… do with that what you will.

In case you need a refresher as to what that promo did indeed look like, here it is:

And if that’s not quite enough to have you sufficiently excited, check out this sneak peek, including the one and only Enzo:

We also get a little lady love between Caroline and Elena, and see how they are faring in the post-Bonnie Bennett universe:

AND, if that’s not enough, here’s a Producer’s preview video, where Julie Plec and Caroline Dries give a bit of an inside look at tonight’s episode:

If that doesn’t get you sufficiently hyped for tonight’s episode, we’re not sure what will! The Vampire Diaries season 6, episode 2, “Yellow Ledbetter” airs tonight at 8PM EST on the CW.

Can’t watch live tonight?

Make sure to check out your cable provider’s options for On Demand, as that’s usually a solid option for catching up on any missed episodes of The Vampire Diaries. The easiest method is always to set the ever dependable DVR, but episodes are also available on the CW website or Hulu sometime around 24 hours after the initial airing.
