    The Request

    Caroline proposes and Stefan and Elena agree to double date with Matt and Caroline at the Mystic Grill. Anna brings her mother Pearl, who is a powerful vampire, to Damon's house and she asks him information about the dwellers of Mystic Falls and their society against the vampires. Damon goes to the Mystic Grill and drinks with Kelly and Jenna. Stefan, Elena, Matt and Caroline decide to go to Stefan's home to see a movie. Meanwhile Damon brings Kelly to his home and they are surprised by Matt and his friends. When they leave the house, Harper and Bethanne attack Stefan and Damon and Bethanne is staked by Stefan. Anna visits Jeremy and he has a surprising request to her.

    "There Goes the Neighborhood" is an average episode of The Vampire Diaries. The most interesting part in the show is in the end, when Jeremy asks Anna to do something for him. My vote is seven.

    Title (Brazil): "There Goes the Neighborhood"

    a great episode with just one bad scene

    Damon making out with Kelly Donovan was vomit inducing as hell but I enjoyed pretty much everything else like the vampires from the tomb trying to kill Stefan and damon

    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Stefan claims that in 1972, he and Hugh Hefner went out on a double date with twin Playmates, and that he "got Miss June." In real life, Playboy's Miss June 1972 was Debbie Davis, and she did not have a twin sister.
    • Goofs
      Pearl states to Damon that she has 400 years on him. In a previous episode (Ep.14- Fool me once) Damon and Anna (Pearls Daughter) grabbed one another's throat and it was clear that they were of equal strength. Since Vampires can't reproduce, Anna would've had to been born before Pearl was turned and should also be about 400 hundred years older and therefore much stronger than Damon. Except, in this case, being Pearl's daughter just means that Pearl was the one who turned her. Therefore, Anna is about the same age as Damon.
    • Quotes

      Stefan Salvatore: Damon hasn't said a word to me. Every time I try to talk to him he shuts me down.

      Elena Gilbert: Do you think he's still trying to find Katherine?

      Stefan Salvatore: I don't know. He waited a hundred and forty-five years, only to find out that Katherine could not care less. I mean, it's gotta hurt, right?

      Elena Gilbert: And it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
