The Vampire Diaries Season 7 Episode 4 Recap: Bring Me to Life

Many lives were lost, two lives were resurrected and one life may be starting anew as a result of events on The Vampire Diaries Season 7 Episode 4 . Ready to run all this down? We’ll start THREE YEARS IN THE FUTURE just to get that over with: Alaric is the dad to twin girls! There’s no mention of a wife or a mother, just a figure standing in the doorway that scares him and his daughters. It’s Damon. Alaric says he must be there because someone died. Damon says that will be the case soon if Alaric doesn’t do exactly what he says. Back to PRESENT DAY: Damon discovers that Oscar has been killed, making up some story to Nora and Mary Louise that he’s gone missing; a story they do not buy and which leads them to kill a Whitemore student every hour until Oscar turns up. Cue Stefan and Caroline trying to keep an eye on them by making them want to attend a Heaven and Hell college dance. View Slideshow: 15 Best Shows in CW History: Ranked! At the dance, Nora and Mary Louise have it out over how the former has adjusted well to modern times, but the latter is struggling and figuratively smuggling the former. It’s actually a nice few moments, giving fans insight into this relationship and these characters. There’s definite potential for the Heretics to end up like The Originals and their presence has already opened up the world of Mystic Falls in a much needed way. Nora and Mary Louise make up in the end, sharing a slow dance after Stefan and Caroline teamed up to force Nora to siphon away Valerie’s vervain spell. Stefan can now touch his girlfriend… and touch her he does! They totally have sex. While this is taking place, Damon takes Oscar to the morgue and Bonnie successfully brings him back to life with The Phoenix Stone, though he seems to have no memory and is REALLY hungry now that he’s alive again. But Damon does successfully return him to Lily and receive Elena’s coffin in exchange. Lily gives her son a speech about how he needs to find out who he is without Elena at some point, prompting Damon to drink a lot of wine… write in his journal… and then send Elena’s coffin off with Tyler. Random, right? But maybe that explains why Damon is in Brooklyn in three years. Perhaps he chose to sleep next to Elena until she wakes up. Speaking of waking up: we end the episode with Bonnie also using the Stone to bring Jo back to life. It cuts to black as soon as her eyes open. Whoa there! What will this mean on The Vampire Diaries Season 7 Episode 5 ? We’ll be tuning in to find out. And you should be heading to TV Fanatic to watch The Vampire Diaries online if you missed any of the action.

So Sad: Latin Kings Thug Arrested After Missing Transgender Woman Is Found Dead In ‘Crude Grave’

Missing Transgender Woman Elisha Walker Found Dead In Crude Grave The body of Elisha Walker, a 20-year-old transgender woman who had been missing for almost a year , was found in a “crude grave” in Johnston County, North Carolina. According to advocates and local media, the discovery was made more than 100 miles from Walker’s home in Salisbury, North Carolina. Via Raw Story : A Latin Kings gang member, Angel Dejesus Arias, 23, was arrested and charged with killing Walker and stealing her car, reports said on Thursday. He was being held without bond. Amid reports from Detroit, Texas and Phoenix of the deaths of three more black, transgender women, some observers have placed the number of transgender women killed this year at 16. In a statement, transgender Human Rights Campaign staff member Laya Monarez said: “Even as we are seeing an increase in transgender visibility through a range of inspiring national media stories, including Caitlyn Jenner’s, the levels of violence and harassment transgender people face – particularly transgender women and transgender women of color – constitute a national crisis .” This week, Texas police announced an investigation into the death of 22-year-old Shade Schuler, whose body was found badly decomposed in a field in Dallas. It took almost three weeks to identify her remains. Activists in Michigan were also asking for help from Detroit law enforcement, after 20-year-old Amber Monroe was shot and killed in a city park. She was the fifth transgender woman to be killed in Palmer Park since 2014. In Phoenix on Tuesday night a 35-year-old transgender woman, Kandis Capri, was shot dead. Walker was reported missing in November 2014, after her family had not heard from her since 24 October, the Salisbury Post reported. Police gave local media information about Walker’s disappearance in an effort to generate leads, but few were forthcoming until Walker’s burnt-out 2000 Pontiac Sunfire was discovered in an open field in Sampson County, police said in a release. Arias had lived in a house in Salisbury that Walker was known to frequent, before moving to Johnston County, more than 100 miles away, where he was arrested on unrelated drug charges. Rowan County police obtained a search warrant for a Johnston County house, they said. They discovered Walker’s body in a “small depression” behind it. Arias will not face hate crimes charges over Walker’s death. North Carolina does not have a hate crimes statute. Should trans people be protected under the hate crimes statute as well??

Okilly Dokilly: Ned Flanders-Themed Metal Band is a Thing That Exists

Despite nearly 26 years (!) on the air, The Simpsons has made more pop culture headlines in the past few months than all the other animated sitcoms combined. Earlier this summer, we learned that Lena Dunham will play Homer’s girlfriend when he and Marge breakup in the show’s upcoming 27th season. That was followed by zeitgeist-y moments such as Caitlyn Jenner getting The Simpsons treatment and the revelation that  the show predicted a Donald Trump presidency .  But while the beloved series has been maintaining its cultural relevance and inspiring tributes for years, nothing could prepare fans for Okilly Dokilly – the Phoenix-based metal band inspired by the life and legend of Springfield’s friendliest neighbor-ino, Ned Flanders. The band’s members  – Head Ned, Red Ned, Thread Ned, Stead Ned, and Bled Ned – all rock Flanders’ signature green sweater, wire-rimmed glasses and push-broom mustache, but the Ned-cenrtic vibe doesn’t end there. ​”Most of our songs are direct Ned quotes,” vocalist Head Ned claims. “[It’s] not as fast as Bartcore, and a little cleaner than Krusty Punk. Not as heavy as ‘Homer J.ent’—Nedal is a happy medium in the Simpscene.” Yes, there’s a “Simpscene” and the band describes it’s sound as “Nedal.” It’s more awesome than Ned’s man cave or lamer than a sermon from Reverend Lovejoy, depending on your perspective. So grab some Flanders-style nachos (cucumbers with cottage cheese) and head over Okilly Dokilly’s Facebook page to hear some dark, yet neighborly Nedal jams and decide for yourself.

Darren Sharper: Still Eligible For Hall Of Fame — Even With 9-Year Rape Bid

Darren Sharper Still Eligble For Hall Of Fame Could there be a convicted rapist in the Pro Football Hall of Fame? According to the VP of Selection, it’s a strong possibility. And despite the fact that Darren Sharper plead guilty and was just sentenced to 9 years in the slammer for sexually assaulting women in Las Vegas, New Orleans, and Phoenix, AZ. Via TMZ : Despite the fact he’ll be locked up for the next 9 years, convicted rapist Darren Sharper is still eligible to be elected into the Pro Football Hall of Fame — and based on his numbers alone, there’s a real possibility it could happen. TMZ Sports spoke with Joe Horrigan — Executive V.P. of the Selection Process for the Pro Football HOF — who tells us there’s nothing in the bylaws preventing a convicted criminal from being enshrined in Canton. Horrigan says as long as the player has been out of the league for 5 years and has made at least 1 All-Pro team … that person is eligible. That being said … the Exec. V.P. says it’s POSSIBLE voters will take Sharper’s crimes into account when voting for the former New Orleans Saints superstar — but they’re not supposed to. FYI … Sharper played 14 seasons in the league and was a 6-time All-Pro … widely considered one of the best safeties of his era. Sharper last played in 2010 … so he would be eligible as early as 2016. Sure he’s eligible …and the stats are what they are. But would the NFL really be so bold as to let an admitted and convicted serial rapist go down in history as one of the league’s shining examples of success? They life their players lead off the field has GOT to count for something in this situation…right?
