The Vampire Diaries season 5 wrapped up with a stunning finale that saw a host of characters die–including Damon.
The finale saw a number of characters return, including Lexi, who saved Stefan from being sucked into Oblivion; Silas; and Alaric, who is back for real.
Damon was trying to blow up the Grille, killing as many Travelers as possible, and enter the Other Side to rescue Stefan.
He was working with Bonnie and others to try to stop the disintegration.
Sheriff Forbes helped Damon, tricking Markos and eventually killing Markos. Forbes gave Damon the greenlight to go to the Other Side.
Elena insists on going with him and they die. Meanwhile, Caroline killed Luke in order to force Liv to do the spell to bring back Stefan, Elena, Damon, and Tyler. So Stefan, Tyler, Alaric, and Markos passed back through Bonnie. Elena waited for Doman to pass back over but he was too late. Lexi tried to hold out for Damon but Live cut the spell off and Damon was stuck on the other side.
The episode ended with Elena crying over Damon, while Bonnie broke the news to Jeremy over her own death because she couldn’t survive as the anchor. The last scene had Damon and Bonnie holding hands as the wind picked up and they went into the light.
Also, Lexi and Grams were also sucked into Oblivion.
