The Vampire Diaries Episode 3.02 Promo: Damon Faces a Werewolf

The Vampire Diaries returned for its highly anticipated season 3 premiere this week. Stefan has been a very bad boy, helping Klaus on his killing spree to find a werewolf named Ray Sutton, who Klaus believes will help him in his plan to gain more power.

Elena has been pining for her missing boyfriend back in Mystic Falls, continuously coming to Damon with more clues about Stefan's whereabouts. But Damon has been dismissing her leads to her face, while also keeping up his own search for Stefan behind her back. After Klaus learned that Damon and Alaric were hot on his trail, Stefan decided to head back to Mystic Falls and give Damon a warning to let him be. Unfortunately, this warning hit home when Stefan killed Andie to convince Damon that he was being serious.

Jeremy is now working at the Mystic Grill with Matt, missing Bonnie while she's been out of town, and still seeing the ghosts of his dead girlfriends. It's seriously freaking him out, leaving him distracted at work. He's also taken up recreational drugs again, leaving Elena concerned. Matt has been ignoring Caroline and she seems torn between being upset about that fact and trying not to be jealous of Tyler's dates. She surprised everyone by kissing Tyler in the middle of Elena's birthday party and then the two fell into bed together. Later, Mrs. Lockwood ended up shooting and incapacitating Caroline.

In the September 22 episode of The Vampire Diaries, Klaus continues with his plan to create a hybrid army, using Ray Sutton to help him. Elena decides to head out of town with Damon and Alaric to track down a new lead to find Stefan. And Jeremy may finally convince Matt that he can see the ghost of his dead sister.

Below is a trailer for the September 22 episode of The Vampire Diaries. You can view photos for the episode here.
