So I’ve watched this show (TVD) a couple times now and I’m confused about why, in season 1, Damon didn’t treat Henry differently when he and Ric went and found him in Grove Hill. He had been through this horrific experience with Henry during the Civil War and Henry obviously moved to Mystic Falls where Katherine turned him. You would think they would be close. The real meaning of “blood is thicker than water” means the blood from the battle field is thicker than the water of the womb and war binds soldiers with brotherhood. Yet Damon says “I know you. Name’s Henry. You were in the tomb.” Umm that’s it?
Does anyone have an opinion on why Damon treated him like he was a stranger or is this yet another example of poor planning (or no planning) by the writers?
