Trivia

 * Season 7's sixth episode will feature a party.
 * TVLINE: Anything you can tease about Stefan and Caroline that you haven’t already?
 * Julie Plec: I would say Stefan and Caroline are part of one of the bigger surprises of the season, which we’ll unfold around Episode 6 or 7. It’s a bit of a fun curveball to throw their way.

Cultural References

 * The popular expression "" suggests that revenge is more satisfying if enacted when unexpected or long feared, inverting traditional civilized revulsion toward "cold-blooded" violence.
