The Secret Circle- Death and All his Friends


“I just want what you want… Power”

One thing is for sure, a demon has invaded town. Finding home in Melissa the poor girl had no idea what was going on with her. She seemed to be having a good trip as she went from one extreme emotion to the next and convincing Nick that she found her book of shadows in the forest. After he dug up an awfully huge suitcase she made him take it back to the house and called the rest of the circle. But her odd behavior had everybody on their toes and then suddenly the suitcase was moving and a worm was sliding across Melissa’s forehead and it was obvious- she had been possessed. Threatening to kill Nick if the circle didn’t do as she wanted Cassie ran to get help from her grandma finally admitting that she knows shes a witch. After removing the demon from Melissa it moved on to Nick who ran away from the group as they burned the suitcase full of demons.
 Nick found his way to the beach shack and threatheend to light it on fire if Adam wouldn’t come with the suitcase. He then found Dawn and heres where this got awfully confusing. He said that he was what Dawn and the circle had summoned 16 years ago and he needs a new body and the whole circle to do what he has to finish. But clever Dawn called up Thomas and after a tortourous time they succeeded in drowning Nick, and disappearing before anyone saw their part in it. Well all is well all the demons are gone, but what did the demon want to finish? What was his goal? Why did they make a whole episode about it if they were just going to kill the demon and move on with it? Unless the demon escaped and they killed poor Nick for no reason? Seems like a repeat of 16 years ago is headed our way if the first member of the circle has already parished.

Other thoughts
-The scene with Adam and Diana, although hot, seemed so forced. For him it seemed like “yah I still have a girlfriend but im really thinking of Cassie” type of thing.
-Melissa broke my heart at the end when she cried into Faye’s lap. She finally found happiness and just like that it’s gone.
-She was also very creepy and lesbionic when she was possessed, but overall good acting. At times it was even comical (like when she was on the couch tweaking out and Adam and Diana are just chilling there). Ha.
-The ending was horribly sad. The boy in the window is gone… Actually it wasn’t that sad because I don’t really feel a passion towards any of the characters the way I do in many other shows.
-Dawn and Thomas needed the power of 6 to reactivate their powers through the crystal. Is that really all their up to? Weak.

-Cassie: We want to find out what happened 16 years ago.
Diana: What if exposing ourselves means we never find out.
-Dawn: You think we could go back to using phones for these kind of conversations?
-Cassies Gma- Please don’t make the same mistake Cassie.
-Nick: Its not what you think.
Faye: Not even remotely.
-Melissa: Then his blood is on your hands.
-Faye: How many witches does it take to open a suitcase?
