Thom encounters Damian in Jonathan's hospital room, instantly reminding Damian of Richard Devere, the man who painted his portrait two centuries ago, the only man he's ever loved. Devere was a vampire who gave Damian immortality and the capacity for evil; Damian in return drove a stake through his heart. He believes Thom to be Devere reincarnated, and Colin takes advantage of Damian’s infatuation to finally gain control of The Lair. (thetvdb.com)
