Yeah thinking about it more now, I was being a bit too cynical of the writers intentions there, they did also have Tyler calling them out in the past on treating innocents as canon fodder for the sake of Elena
that shot of Caroline appearing to stop the injured girl from running certainly looked as though it was meant to be creepy.
Just that whole thing with the sheriff now being in on it, and her and Matt immediately working to silence the traumatised girl was so so creepy to me! I'm wondering if they plan to do any more with that, perhaps bringing in some kind of subplot with the guy who was trying to confront Matt and hear what she had to say, he seemed to really have a sense of something being wrong there
And this I totally did not see when I watched it, heh, so I was surprised when I read other people's reactions.
Possibly they didn't have that in mind when they wrote it at all, it was mostly the emphasis on it being a baby and therefore absolutely wrong to kill it, even though it hasn't ~hatched~ yet, that was jarring to me
