We haven’t even watched the season premiere of “The Vampire Diaries” yet, but The CW is making sure everyone is primed and ready for upcoming Episodes 3 and 4, “The End of the Affair” and “Disturbing Behavior”, respectively, by releasing the synopses for both eps well in advance. Read on for the details!

Episode 3.03 “The End of the Affair” (9/29/11 Air Date; 8:00-9:00 PM):
Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) arrive in Chicago, where Stefan is reunited with a vampire (guest star Claire Holt) who hasn’t really moved on from her interest in him decades earlier. In a flashback to Chicago in the 1920s, Stefan comes face-to-face with a shocking chapter from his wild past. After Damon (Ian Somerhalder) gets a tip on Stefan and Klaus’ whereabouts from an unexpected source, he and Elena (Nina Dobrev) follow their trail. Back in Mystic Falls, Tyler (Michael Trevino) is concerned about Caroline (Candice Accola) and turns to Sheriff Forbes (guest star Marguerite MacIntyre) for help.

Episode 3.04 “Disturbing Behavior” (10/6/11 Air Date; 8:00-9:00 PM):
Still in Chicago, Klaus (Joseph Morgan) uses Gloria (guest star Charmin Lee), a witch he knew long ago, to help him track down missing information that will explain why his plan isn’t working. Gloria’s spells reveal intriguing glimpses of the truth, but she soon realizes she needs Stefan’s (Paul Wesley) knowledge to complete the puzzle. When Stefan suddenly finds himself in danger, help comes from a surprising ally. Back in Mystic Falls, a frustrating new enemy pushes Damon (Ian Somerhalder) over the brink, and he lashes out in a way that will have lasting consequences.

Caroline (Candice Accola) struggles with her own emotional issues, even as she tries to help Elena (Nina Dobrev) face her feelings. Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) makes a brief but disturbing breakthrough with one of his ghostly visitors, leaving him more confused than ever. Finally, Bonnie (Kat Graham) has a strange encounter that will affect everyone. Matt Davis also stars. Wendey Stanzler directed the episode written by Brian Young.
