In one of my favorite "Vampire Diaries" moments ever, Klaus and Caroline made an intense connection in The ties that binds episode after Tyler bit her and she needed Klaus's blood to survive.
In terms of his relationship with Caroline, there's an appeal to Klaus about being a sort of role model. There's a sort of appeal in the idea of being a mentor, after being alive a thousand years. He wants to let her know the great things about being a vampire. There's all this art and music and culture that you can expose yourself to, and be a part of. It's not all just killing.
At this point, it's indeed a shocker for all of us. We don't really see much of Klaus softer side other than the night he was being confronted by his father, Mikael. This time he literally just saved someone he planned to destroy. It is the humanity dimmer switch or the manipulative softer side? We don't know. Guess we'll just have to wait for the next episode for more intense action and who knows more surprise. This show will never fail to surprise us with their new element.
This is the moment that almost made my tears. So thoughtful and human of the big bad wolf.
"I could let you die if that's what you want, if you believe your existence has no meaning. I thought about it myself, once or twice over centuries, truth be told. But I'll let you in on a little secret. There's a whole world out there waiting for you, great cities and art and music. Genuine beauty. And you can all of it. You can have a thousand more birthday. All you have to do is ask. Happy Birthday, Caroline."
