Certainly not over Katherine sine I’m pretty sure he wants the cure for Elena’s sake

Interesting, I did wonder what Elijah's motive was. He promised Katherine that he would use it to bargain her freedom with Klaus, but I kept thinking that he must have had his own agenda too. I don't think he wanted it to give to Elena though.

I’m pretty sure new-Elena thinks Elijah is pathetic for “threatening” her when they’re really just standing around having a chat.

That was hilarious, I don't think either of them believed it for a second.

but I think Elijah’s love for Elena was what made him think he could and should “save” Katherine and I think on some level Kat knows he’s in love with Elena (she made sure to tell him Elena’s a vampire but not about killing Jeremy, and her attitude in their talk after the E/E scenes seemed like...she knew Elena could and would come between them, regardless of her bravado to the guys on the subject).

I completely agree on the second part; Katherine knew instantly that Elena was a threat and would be able to drive a wedge between them. I sort of wish that the first part was true, since it would be slightly more palatable than the whole Katerina thing. I wanted more of a sense that Elijah owes Katherine something, that he wants to make it up to her, but instead it was more about what he wanted from her.

“You don’t have a smart brother” may be the best line ever.

Best line of the episode for sure.
