I'm probably a horrible person because I was way more Team Rebekah in this episode. Okay, I am a horrible person. It's all good though. I'll go drink with Damon & Klaus and get over it.
Anywho, my theory on The Five is that each hunter is tied to an Original, the same way that Alaric was tied to Elena. But I'm betting the Originals don't know which one is tied to which. And these hunters probably can be legitimately killed (wondering if they have a quota of lives) but then another one takes their place. IE, we could feasibly see Connor dying at some point this season and Jeremy officially inheriting his hunter legacy. And as much as I love my Originals, Kol & Rebekah are both easier to kill. Plus I think the Five being tied to an Original kind of works because that would explain why Connor doesn't know his own heritage. If he knew he'd die too, he might be willing to work with a vampire. And we all know Klaus takes advantage of other people's self-preservation instincts. As does Katherine because she is awesome.
On a less theorizing note, I think Caroline should be Stefan's Vampire!Yoda and teach him (like Lexi tried to do) how to be an in moderation vampire. And I need Meredith to become Damon's next bff because a) he needs another adult that he respects to call him out on his shit and b) she's awesome and comes with the Alaric stamp of approval and c) Damon needs to know that Alaric is not the exception to the rule. He can have more than one friend and they can be awesome and not fucking Sage.
