'Vampire Diaries' fans of 'Stelena' (Elena and Stefan) were dismayed last week when the couple finally called it quits after a couple of rocky seasons in their relationship. However the couple's demise has meant that fans of 'Delana,' or the coupling of Elena (Nina Dobrev) and Stefan's (Paul Wesley) older brother Damon (Ian Somerhalder), have reason to celebrate.
Last week's episode, "We All Go A Little Mad Sometimes," paved the way for Damon and Elena to finally explore what a romantic relationship between the two could mean. Despite having to tread carefully, after all Stefan is Damon's brother, Elena and Damon have become very connected since she made her transformation into vampirism.
In next's week's episode, entitled "My Brother's Keeper," Elena and Damon will head to the Miss Mystic Falls Pageant together. The pageant will, as expected, make things exceptionally awkward for the Salvatore brothers. However, it won't stop Damon from seeking Stefan's help in uncovering the truth about Professor Shane (David Alpay). Unfortunately for Damon, Stefan has his own plans with Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and Damon will be forced to confront Shane on his own.
Speaking of the Original Hybrid, Klaus will also be attending the Miss Mystic Falls Pageant as Caroline's (Candice Accola) date. How Caroline's boyfriend (possible ex-boyfriend?) Tyler (Michael Trevino) will take the date has yet to be seen, but his outburst towards the end of the last episode is probably a good indication of how he feels. Hybrid Tyler will, however, be busy working on a "secret project" with shewolf friend Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin), the CW teased.
As for little Gilbert, and new member of The Five, Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen)? Looks like Elena's little bro will have to seek his friend Matt's (Zach Roerig) help after some vivid nightmares plague his sleep.
Like fellow CW show 'Hart of Dixie,' 'The Vampire Diaries' will also be graced by a member of the US Olympics gymnastics team. "Fab Five" Olympic gold medalist Gabrielle Douglas will make an appearance during "My Brother's Keeper."
"My Brother's Keeper" airs on November 29 at 8 p.m. EST on the CW.
