Since the past couple of episodes, we've all been waiting for the time when the brothers would go back to being what they were - a team. We finally got to see that again. They worked together without their insecurities getting in the way. I have to applaud Stefan for the way he has accepted that Elena needs Damon and he can't do anything for her. The scene where he tells Damon to come back for Elena and then asks him to 'help her' during her breakdown at the house, was marvelous. I also felt that Stefan now trusts his brother again. That lost trust has been regained and we have the brothers back. <3 When Damon tells Elena to turn off her humanity, Stefan was about to object but all Damon had to do was to gesture for him to let him do what he was doing. That's all Stefan needed. He stopped and let his elder brother take the lead.
I'm hoping we see more progress between the brothers in the coming episodes now especially since Elena no longer has her humanity so they'll have to work together whether they like it or not. đ
-Jot.
