‘The Vampire Diaries’ season 5, episode 21 preview: Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev in ‘Promised Land’

The latest -Can you believe that there are only two episodes left of “The Vampire Diaries” before the end is here? Next week’s installment “Promised Land” is going to be almost everything that you would expect: Dangerous, violent, somewhat-romantic, and also shocking.  It also is going to cause all sorts of conflict for the triangle at the center of the show: If you want to see the show get back to the Damon / Elena / Stefan dynamic, you’ll like this.

Of course, with everything going on with Liv, Luke, the ghost of Enzo, and more these days, there is plenty going on in this story beyond just these main characters. Want to find out more? Then just read the official synopsis below:

When Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Elena (Nina Dobrev) escape from Markos’ (guest star Raffi Barsoumian) control, only to find themselves Stranded in a remote location, Stefan gets philosophical with Elena about her relationship with Damon (Ian Somerhalder). After their attempt to protect the dopplegangers goes badly, Liv (guest star Penelope Mitchell) and Luke (guest star Chris Brochu) come up with a dangerous new strategy. Damon recruits Matt (Zach Roerig) and Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) to help him set a trap for Markos, who turns out to have a devastating surprise of his own. Bonnie (Kat Graham) finally admits to Caroline (Candice Accola) that she’s been keeping the truth about the Other Side from everyone. Finally, while Bonnie searches desperately for a way to stop Markos, Caroline is witness to an unthinkable act of violence by one of the Travelers.”

The other major purpose of “Promised Land”? Setting up the finale. There will be deaths, and knowing this show, you are also going to potentially see an epic cliffhanger.
