‘The Vampire Diaries’: Bonnie Paralyzed By Damon And Enzo’s Predicament [Spoilers]
The Vampire Diaries Season 7 finale ended with a shocking twist. With Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Enzo’s (Michael Malarkey) predicament, what will become of the two vampires? That isn’t known yet, but executive producer Julie Plec did tease that Bonnie Bennett (Kat Graham) will be “paralyzed” by the situation.
Warning: TVD Season 8 spoilers are ahead.
On the last episode of The Vampire Diaries, Damon Salvatore managed to save Bonnie. However, after hearing Elena Gilbert’s (Nina Dobrev) voice, he was lured closer to the monster inside the Vault. This led to devastating consequences. What made it even worse was that Enzo went to save Damon, only to be touched by the creature himself. This will be the storyline in Season 8 of TVD, but how will Bonnie be affected by all of this?
“Bonnie, out of everybody, is the one who’s going to be just paralyzed by this struggle,” Julie Plec told TV Line. “She has two men in her life – Damon, who’s a platonic, but also deep, soulful best friend, and Enzo, who has really become her one true love – and she lost both of them in one fell swoop. In addition to that, she also lost her magic. She’s starting at an absolute deficit in terms of being able to fix this problem. That’s going to have a great impact on her.”
Now, will Bonnie be able to get over the situation? Can she focus her mind not on what happened, but work to save Damon and Enzo? Some may think she is too strong not to and Season 7 finale writer Brian Young echoed this statement.
“That’s going to be a big thing for Bonnie next year: How does she deal with this new chapter of her life? She’s lost the two people she cares about the most and it’s going to be tough,” Young told TV Guide regarding Kat Graham‘s character. “But Bonnie is strong and so her rallying and finding the strength and really pushing forward with it is going to be a delight to watch.”
As previously reported by the Inquisitr, spoilers for The Vampire Diaries Season 8 include Stefan Salvatore (Paul Wesley), Caroline Forbes (Candice King) and Bonnie Bennett trying to find Damon and Enzo. However, if the two murderous vampires are located, what will happen then? They are not exactly Damon and Enzo anymore.
While it was teased that the creature inside the Vault strips all goodness from its victims, Candice King implied something a bit different in an interview with IGN. The actress said she believes in Season 8 of The Vampire Diaries, Caroline, Stefan and Bonnie will try to “wake up” Damon and Enzo. So, are the two vampires in a sleepwalking state? Are they sleeping inside their bodies while the creature controls their thoughts and actions? If so, how will the trio get Damon and Enzo to snap out of it?
One theory is that Elena could be enough to wake up Damon Salvatore. Her voice was enough for the creature to lure him in. The mere mention of her name has to be enough to have Damon regain control of his body.
As for Enzo, is his love for Bonnie enough to snap him out of the creature’s clutches? Although it is new to TVD fans, Julie Plec teased on Twitter that Enzo is Bonnie’s “one true love.” With their romantic scenes from Season 7, we are sure he feels the same way about Kat Graham’s character.
What do you think is going to happen in Season 8 of The Vampire Diaries? How will Bonnie handle Damon and Enzo’s situation? Will the two vampires live or die as a result of the creature taking over their bodies?
