Small victories! Sandile and Fadzai smile in the face of adversity as they return to form with Caroline Forbes.

A main character of The Vampire Diaries, Caroline is introduced as one of Elena Gilbert's best friends, though slightly removed from her as compared to Bonnie Bennett. Her time in the show's first season largely deals with her insecurity around Elena, and with others' opinions of her, as well as her pursuit of romance while ignorant of the supernatural goings-on in Mystic Falls.

The second season begins with her transition into a vampire, which transforms Caroline both as a person and as a character becoming more involved in the main plot. She quickly becomes the most well-adjusted of the vampires in the Mystic Falls Gang, shedding a lot of her past issues and growing into a stronger, self-asserted, and caring woman - rivaling few as the best character on the show.

(This episode focuses on Caroline in seasons 3 and 4.)

Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of conversion therapy, emotional abuse, grief and loss, homophobia, mental coercion and manipulation, physical abuse, racism, sexual abuse, assault and related victim blaming, stalking, suicide and suicidal ideation, and torture.
