Candice Accola teased Caroline’s upcoming reaction to Alaric being the serial killer.

“We won’t see it right now, because she’s still gone with Bonnie and Abby, but in upcoming episodes Caroline will learn that it was Alric. They will have words. Like, ‘Hey, remember that time you murdered my father? This is awkward now.’” She goes on to tease the mythology behind the Gilbert rings, “It really opens up the history behind the ring. If we’ve got this ring that brings people back to life, there’s got to be consequences. I love that the show has followed through on the fact that with every bit of magic, there’s a consequence.
