[Mystic Falls – The Woods]
(A couple is in a tent, kissing. They hear noise)
Girl: What was that?
Guy: I have no idea
Girl: Go out there and check it out
Guy: You go out there and check it out
(She goes out and sees Liz)
Girl: Hey, I got the LAN… aah! Oh, my god. Sheriff Forbes. I thought you were a serial killer
Liz: Worse, actually, because you'll still be alive when I call your parents. Pack it up and strike it down
(They leave)
Guy: I'm like, for real, Sheriff Forbes? You got nothing better to do than to bust us for a couple of beer cans? Tax money at work
Girl: It could've been worse. Melanie Peterson was arrested for underage drinking last week. I swear this place is turning into that town from "Footloose"
Guy: Yeah, well, let's just get out of here
(They’re out of Mystic Falls now. The girl disappears)
Guy: Jessie? Yo, Jessie. Jessie
(Her body falls down)
Guy: Oh! Oh, Jessie. You'll be OK. I'll get help
Girl: Look. Up
(He’s attacked)
[The Cemetery]
(Elena goes to the crypt)
Elena: Today was a good day .Summer is officially over and I couldn't be more thrilled. Sophomore Year. I guess this is the year you're supposed to pick a major and start carving out your path in life. So, that's what I did. You are looking at the future Dr. Elena Gilbert
[A Hospital]
(Elena is with other students. They’re looking at their professor)
Jo: So. Pop quiz. Mr. Weatherly complains of chest pain and shortness of breath. Can anyone tell me what tests we run? Gilbert
Elena: Um... A pulmonary angiogram provides a clear picture of the blood flow in the arteries and the lungs, which is what we look for in a pulmonary embolism, a condition in which Mr. Weatherly's symptoms are common
Jo: Good. Someone's read ahead. Remember that. You'll need that in 3 years. Here's the bed pan you need to know about today. Moving on
Student: I was impressed
Elena: Thanks
[The Crypt]
Elena: OK, so, maybe I spent the day observing. But at least now we have unlimited access to blood bags, and trust me, we need all the help we can get. Some of us are still getting the hang of the whole drinking other people's blood thing
[Whitmore College]
(Elena enters Alaric’s classroom)
Alaric: Want some?
Elena: It's all right. I had some on the way over. You know, this will never not be weird
Alaric: What? That some ancient witch turned me into a vampire or that 4 months ago, I rose from the dead?
Elena: That you're my college professor
Elena: In Alaric's defense, he couldn't exactly compel himself a job back at the high school
[Mystic Falls’ Square]
Elena: Nope, the high school, grill, the town square… thanks to the Travelers' anti-magic spell, everything in Mystic Falls’ still off-limits to anyone with fangs. A lot of us haven't been back home in months. On the plus side, the crime rate is way down. Although I'm not sure Matt got the memo
(Matt is training with a group)
Tripp: Good move, Donovan. Proving once again that self-defense is the best offense
Elena: I will say he's never been better. I think he can bench-press more than Jeremy now, which is beyond freaky. Speaking of Jeremy...
[Lockwood’s Mansion]
(Matt enters and sees Jeremy kissing a girl)
Elena: Actually, let's not talk about my brother. Let's talk about Stefan
Savannah, Georgia
[A Garage]
(Everyone is busy working)
Elena: Last I heard, he was chasing some lead to some witch that could contact the dead
(A man comes out of his office)
Man: Hey. Get your ass in here, kid. Payday
(He’s actually looking for Stefan)
Elena: We haven't spoken in months, which can only mean that his search for answers to what happened has been all-consuming
[The Crypt]
Elena: He's grieving. He lost so much. We all did. But we're all getting through it in our own way
[Whitmore College]
(Elena is on the phone with Caroline)
Caroline: I dropped out of Whitmore. Why would I support their stupid football team?
Elena: It's the opening game of the season, Caroline. Time to come home
Caroline: I am home. I just signed the lease to my new apartment
Elena: On the border of a town that doesn't want you. That's not home. That's sad
Caroline: You don't even like football
Elena: No, but I like drinking in the parking lot beforehand
(Tyler rejoins her)
Tyler: Caroline, you're coming
Caroline: Tyler, don't act like you have any ground to stand on. You skipped an entire year
Tyler: And you hounded me for an entire year. So, here I am. Now, get your ass back here
Elena: Caroline, I'm picking you up at your house at 6 p.m. sharp tomorrow. OK? Bring your school spirit. Bye
[Mystic Falls’ Border]
(Caroline is having a picnic with her mom)
Caroline: Anyway... As I was saying, I haven't exactly found a spell that can undo an anti-magic border per Se, but this book mentions travelers, which isn't that helpful, but at least it's a step in the right direction
Liz: Sweetheart
Caroline: Yeah?
Liz: You should go with them tomorrow
Caroline: No. We're gonna go see a movie
Liz: We have spent the entire summer together
Caroline: God. You're sick of me
Liz: Caroline, you just lost one of your best friends. It makes sense that you want to hold on to what's familiar, but Elena lost her, too, and she clearly misses you
Caroline: No. Elena clearly has taken up residency on planet denial, where football is more important than her boyfriend being swept away into oblivion. Do you know she's barely cried for him? She was a full-on wreck over Bonnie for months, but every time I mention Damon, it's like nothing ever happened
Liz: Caroline, Elena has experienced more grief than anyone I've ever met. You should cut her some slack
(Her phone buzzes. She looks at it)
Caroline: What? Someone trample over Mr. Davis's flower bed again?
Liz: Two kids were admitted to the hospital with suspicious wounds on their necks
Caroline: Vampire attacks? How? Vampires can't get into Mystic Falls
Liz: No, but they can lurk around the borders. I gotta cut lunch short. I gotta take care of this. Listen. Consider Elena's offer, OK? Mystic Falls isn't going anywhere
Caroline: Hey, don't forget your basket
Elena: She doesn't want to let go
[The Crypt]
(Elena is outside the crypt)
Elena: I get it. I don't want to let go, either. I don't want to think that everything's changed, that I have to start over. The worst thing that could possibly happen actually did. But I don't have to. Anyway, that was my day. How was yours?
(She’s actually talking ti Damon)
Damon: Can we go back to the part where Ric came back to life to be a college professor?
[Whitmore College]
(Alaric is giving his class)
Alaric: "Occult." The word in its literal translation means "hidden." Therefore, the study of the occult… therefore, the study of the occult is the study of hidden knowledge. Today, we're going to discuss it as it relates to resurrection. Is there something funny, Liv?
Liv: More like ironic, but OK
(Tyler enters)
Alaric: Oh, Mr. Lockwood. How generous of the practice squad to lend you to us
Tyler: Sorry I'm late
Alaric: Typically, not all occult groups held a consensus on the topic
(He goes sit next to Liv)
Tyler: Sorry, princess. Just trying to check what page we're on
Liv: Shh. I'm trying to listen
Alaric: Apostles, the athanasian creeds tertullian, and the Western church were inclined to believe in resurrection of the flesh, whereas the gnostics held the firm belief that resurrection existed only in a spiritual sense
(He turns his back and whispers so that only Elena can hear him)
Alaric: Elena, you know I can smell that, right? I'm teaching a class full of kids who all look like blood sausages to me. Now, put that away
Elena: Sorry
Alaric: Uh, whereas others, like the early church fathers…
(Elena rejoins Luke)
Elena: Luke. Hey
Luke: Hey, I gotta run, actually
Elena: Oh, no, I'll be quick. Really quick. I just… I've been really thirsty lately. Do you think it's because of the... You know
Luke: Are you asking me if there are side effects to the ancient psychotropic herbs I've been giving you, because there haven't exactly been clinical trials
Elena: Obviously .I don't… I was just wondering if maybe you could, like, I don't know… add something to the next batch?
Luke: Yeah, or maybe there shouldn't be a next batch
Elena: What do you mean? Luke, it was your idea that I see him again, remember? You were all, "Hey, Elena, I'm sorry that I wronged you. I'm sorry that I'm the reason your boyfriend is dead," remember?
Luke: And I am. I'm sorry. Something I made clear when I made Alaric's daytime bracelet, because you asked
Elena: Yeah, I know
Luke: And when I went against my coven rules to get these herbs, because you asked
Elena: Right
Luke: But it's time to return to reality here
Elena: Look, I'm fine. I'm OK. I promise. Just come by my place by 5, OK?
Luke: Elena…
Elena: Thank you
Savannah, Georgia
[A Garage]
(Stefan rejoins his boss)
Stefan: Hey, Dean. I think a zero might've fallen off my paycheck
Dean: Oh, yeah. I had to dock you 200 bucks
Stefan: For what?
Dean: Dan Zimmer said you put a ding on the hood of his Shelby
Stefan: Dan's wife put a ding on the hood of his Shelby
Dean: That's funny. Sounds like you're calling my best customer a liar
Stefan: You're ripping me off, Dean
Dean: What you gonna do about it, kid? Huh? You gonna quit? Run off to wherever the hell you came from? That's what I thought
(Stefan’s phone rings. He answers)
Stefan: Hello?
Alaric: Hey. Just checking in to see if your contact panned out yet
Stefan: Still working on it
Alaric: Good. Keep me posted. Let me know how it goes
[A Dinner]
(Caroline rejoins Alaric with a bunch a books in her arms)
Alaric: You already read all that?
Caroline: Cover to cover, with no mention on how to undo an anti-magic force-field. And if I'm going to single-handedly take back our town, I'm gonna need a little bit more to go on
Alaric: Got it. All right, well, I brought "Ancient Witchcraft, Volume Two."
Caroline: I read it
Alaric: How about "The Art of Hexing" and "Elements of Magic"?
Caroline: Fine. Thank you. So, how's Stefan?
Alaric: He's OK
Caroline: How often do you talk to him?
Alaric: I don't know. Couple times a week
Caroline: Oh. Huh
Alaric: I'm gonna go out on a limb here, Caroline. Is something bothering you?
Caroline: He didn't say good-bye. Damon and Bonnie died and he just left. No phone calls, no e-mails, just disappeared into thin air. And I haven't heard from him in months. I actually convinced myself that he was in some remote mountain region and couldn't accept my calls
Alaric: Or maybe he just doesn't want to bother you with every half-lead that goes nowhere
Caroline: Or maybe I just need to get over it. Thanks for the books
[Lockwood Mansion]
(Matt is on the phone with Elena)
Elena: Why isn't Jeremy answering his phone?
Matt: I don't know. He's probably doing homework or something
Elena: Doing homework? Put me on speaker, please
(Matt puts the phone on speakers)
Elena: Jeremy, I know you can hear me. Get your butt off that couch and do something productive
Jeremy: Or what? You're gonna come here and make me?
Elena: Or I'll have the sheriff arrest you and drag you to the town border, where I will kick your ass myself. Matt, a little help, please
Matt: Yeah, I'll deal with him
Elena: Thank you
(They hang up)
Matt: So. This is it, huh? Video games. Random girls. Drunk by noon every day. Look, it sucks that Bonnie's dead, Jer. I get it. But you need to start living your life again
Jeremy: How? By joining the community protection squad? What exactly are you protecting us from? Bike theft? Litter? Magic doesn't work here. The town's safe
Matt: For now. But Caroline's working on a way to reverse all that. So, it's only a matter of time before we're dealing with all the problems that come along with vampires again. You're a hunter. You have skills. Use them
Jeremy : No more magic means I'm not a hunter anymore
Matt: Yeah, you're right, Jer. You're not much of anything anymore
[Whitmore College]
(Luke opens his door to Elena)
Luke: Hey
Elena: Hey. You're home. I thought you were coming over at 5
Luke: I know you did. Look, Elena, I can't help you anymore
Elena: Is it because I told you that I was thirsty? It's fine. I can get more at the blood bank at the clinic. I work there. It's easy
Luke: Elena, you're going through this stuff like crazy. Yeah. I'm not a drug pusher
Elena: No, you're my friend. My friend in spite of the fact that my boyfriend got stuck on the other side
Luke: Elena, don’t…
Elena: Because you decided to stop the spell that could bring him back. My friend that owes me
Luke: No. A friend who cares about you and thinks you're living in denial
Elena: I know you have more
Luke: Elena, stop
Elena: Where is it?
Luke: Look at you
Elena: Where is it? I need to see Damon, Luke, and I'm not asking
[Elena’s Car]
Elena: I kind of want to set up Ric with Jo from the hospital. I mean, we both know he has a soft spot for the sexy doctor type. How long do you think it takes after somebody comes back to life before they can start dating again?
Damon: Well, the fact that you can say that with a straight face is one more reason that I love you
Elena: So, like, 3 months?
Damon: Can I ask why there's not a Bennett witch in the back? I mean, can't Luke whip up a batch of herbs in Bonnie flavor?
Elena: You know, if I had to drive around with everyone that I've lost, I'd need a school bus
Damon: Or you just know that Bonnie would agree with Luke. The last thing you need to do is conjure up someone who's gonna tell you the truth
Elena: Can we not talk about this?
Damon: About what? The fact that I'm dead? I am
Elena: Technically, you were dead when we met
Damon: Good point. Now I'm just gone
Elena: Damon, please don't say that
Damon: And this conversation is pretty much the smart, level-headed you talking to the irrational possible drug addict you. Which is clear evidence of your insanity
Elena: Yeah ok
[Whitmore College]
(It’s the Whitmore barbecue. Tyler runs into Alaric)
Tyler: Oh! Watch it, dick. Whoa. Sorry. Still working out the kinks of being human. My tolerance blows
Alaric: Yeah, Tyler, not to play chaperone here, but are you sure somebody with your anger issues should be drinking at all this close to a full moon?
Tyler: My issues are under control. Coach lets me practice with the football team. I get to kick ass in a controlled environment
Alaric: Till you get plastered and do something stupid and trigger your werewolf curse all over again
Tyler: Alaric, chill. It's under control
Alaric: Good. But just in case
Tyler: Really?
Alaric: You know, I haven't been buzzed since I came back to life. And saying that aloud while sober really freaks me out
(Tyler looks at Liv)
Alaric: As the only sober person here, trust me when I tell you this, Tyler… that girl is so not into you. Thanks for the beer
[Stefan’s Apartment]
(Ivy rejoins Stefan in bed)
Ivy: Your fridge makes me want to kill myself. We're gonna have to split this
Stefan: Knock yourself out
Ivy: So. You want to grab dinner? There's that crab shack on the harbor you want to check out
Stefan: Uh, yeah, I would, but, um, I told Dean I'd stop by the garage later
Ivy: Yeah, never heard that one before
Stefan: Hey, look, no offense, Ivy, but, uh, you're the one who showed up to me today
Ivy: Hey, I'm not asking for your hand in marriage. Stefan, come on. We've been hanging out for two months now. I don't know anything about you or your family. Your friends you never talk about call you and you get all weird
Stefan: I get weird?
Ivy: Yeah. You get weird. So, we'll play a game. You tell me one thing about you and I'll tell you one thing about me
Stefan: Well, I already know everything about you. You're from Colorado. You love dogs. Your dad's a bit of a pain in the ass, but you graciously let him pay your rent
Ivy: OK. Fine. Your turn. Now tell me something I don't know about you
Stefan: I'm a vampire
Ivy: You're so annoying
Stefan: Hey. And I like you
[Whitmore College]
(The party is still in full swing. Jo rejoins Alaric)
Jo: Thank god. Someone over 20. The rest of the chaperones are huddled around the burger bar
Alaric: And you're a vegetarian
Jo: I don't eat red meat. I look at blood all day. Because I work at the medical center. Not because I'm a serial killer or anything. I'm Jo
Alaric: Alaric. I teach occult studies here
Jo: I didn't know that was an actual thing
Alaric: Yeah
Jo: Not that it's not a thing. May I?
Alaric: Uh, you know, actually, I'm a germaphobe
Jo: A germaphobe. So, you're like a vegetarian of cool people
Alaric: Ha ha! Yeah. Exactly. Um...will you excuse me a second? I actually have to make a… a quick phone call
(He leaves to make a phone call)
Alaric : OK, so, when I lost my human nature, I also lost my game. Where are you?
[Middle of the Road]
(Elena is driving. She looks for a blood bag)
Damon: What are you looking for?
Elena: I thought I had… guess not
(She sees a girl on the side of the road and stops)
Elena: Hey. Are you OK?
Girl: Depends. Am I still in the Western hemisphere?
Elena: Hang on. I can help
Girl: I'm sorry. I'm from New York and we're big on cell phone reception
Elena: Where you heading?
Girl: Mystic Falls. My GPS died and then I started second-guessing myself…
(Elena attacks her. She screams)
Damon: Easy. This is when you wipe her slate and let her go
Elena: I am still hungry
Damon: You're gonna kill her, just like you nearly killed the last one and the one before that and the one before that
Elena: I got it, Damon. I'm gonna let her go. I'm just… I just need a little more
(Caroline arrives)
Caroline: Oh, my god! What are you…
Elena: Caroline. It's not… No!
[Mystic Falls]
Girl : Help. Help, anybody
[Middle of the Road]
Caroline: What did you do? Why the hell are you feeding on people?
Elena: It's fine. I've compelled everyone else
Caroline: Whoa, hang on. So, you're the border lurker? Did you know my mom's been out looking for a vampire prowler?
Elena: It's gotta be the herbs Luke's been giving me. They make me so thirsty. Maybe I'm not thinking straight
Caroline: Whoa. What herbs?
Elena: They make me see Damon. I can talk to him and… and… and I can be with him and…
Caroline: Is this what you've been doing this whole time? Hallucinating your dead boyfriend?
Elena: I tried to grieve him, Caroline. Trust me. I know grief. I've got grieving down to a science at this point, and I tried. But every time... I let it sink in that I'm never gonna see him again... I feel like I'm gonna die
Caroline: Look, hon, I get it. OK? I do. But...there are better ways to get through this
Elena: Like what? Like dropping out of school and having picnics with my mom near the town border? Or maybe I could pull a Stefan and just bounce from country to country chasing some false hope that we're gonna find a way to bring Damon and Bonnie back. We're all getting through it. This is me getting through it. OK?
Caroline: Yeah, but you're not getting through it, Elena. You're just pressing pause. Look. I'll call my mom and she can fix all this. But you need to get out of here and go hide, OK? So, just...Go
(Elena goes to the car)
Elena: What am I doing?
[Mystic Falls]
(The community protection squad is training. The girl asks for help)
Girl: Help me. Please help me
(Matt runs towards her)
Matt: It's OK
Girl: You have to help me. There was this girl. I saw her. She looked so normal but I swear to god, she had these teeth and she bit me. You have to help me... You need to find her
(The rest of the squad rejoin them)
Tripp: What happened?
Girl: There was this girl and I was… I was lost…
Matt: she had a dog. It bit her. She was lost. She stopped to ask this girl for directions. She had a dog and it bit her
Tripp: Is that what happened? Look at me
(Liz rejoins them)
Liz: Matt. What's going on here?
Tripp: This girl was attacked. I'm not sure we're getting the full story
Liz: Matt, get her to the hospital now
Tripp: No... Hey-hey-hey-hey. What are you doing? You need to talk to her
Liz: We'll get a statement as soon as she's been treated
Tripp: You didn't even ask her what happened
Liz: All due respect, Tripp, you run a volunteer community program. I'm the sheriff. Let me do my job. Go!
[Stefan’s Apartment]
(Stefan’s phone rings)
Stefan: Hello?
Elena: Stefan, is that you? I know it's been a really long time since we talked, but…
Stefan: Elena, hey. What's going on?
Elena: I need you to tell me that you found something. A witch. A guy who knows a witch who knows something. Anything. I need you to give me hope and tell me that you're gonna find Damon and bring him back
Stefan: Not yet
Elena: But how do you do it? How do you wake up in the morning? How do you go about your day without falling apart? Tell me what you're doing to get through this, because I'm clearly doing it wrong
Stefan: There's no right or wrong way, Elena
Elena: No, there's only forever. That's why I need you to give me hope. Because I don't think I can live forever without him
Stefan: I can't. I gave up
Elena: You just said that you were looking for him
Stefan: I did. And then I realized it was pointless and that I needed to move on with my life, so...I stopped
Elena: What do you mean you stopped?
Stefan: I mean I said good-bye, Elena. I moved on. Damon is gone. It's time for you to say good-bye, too
[Whitmore College]
(Tyler is on the phone with Caroline)
Tyler: Where are you? The game's gonna start in, like, 15 minutes.
Caroline: Do you know Elena has some witchy drug problem? Yeah, Luke Parker has been feeding her some concoction that allows her to hallucinate Damon
Tyler: Whoa. Slow down. What?
Caroline: It gets her all bloodlusty and confused. She nearly killed a girl today
Tyler: This makes no sense
Caroline: Yeah, well, neither did the fact that she got over Damon so quickly when he died. Now it's crystal clear. She hasn't. She's living in a fantasy land
Tyler: Is she OK?
Caroline: She's a mess. And as long as Luke keeps playing witch doctor, she's not going to get any better
Tyler: Let me deal with him
[The Mystic Falls Border]
(Matt stops at the border with the girl)
Matt: We're just meeting up with my friend here. Everything will be fine
(She gets out of the car)
Matt: Sarah, stop, please. Get back in the car. Stop! Sarah! Hey! I'm not gonna hurt you
Sarah: You kidnapped me
Matt: Look, I know you're scared, and I'm sorry that this happened to you, but all I can do is promise that it won't happen again
Sarah: Why the hell should I trust you?
Matt: Because I've been attacked like that more times than I can count. I've had my throat ripped open. I've had my neck snapped, my hand smashed. I've drowned. I've died and come back to life. And I've lost what little family I had, and I refuse to lose anyone else. I want to protect people like you. Like us
Sarah: That's...Quite a story, but... Thing is, I don't trust anyone. Ever
Caroline: That's probably wise
[Whitmore College]
(Luke rejoins Tyler)
Luke: Hey. Have you seen Elena?
Tyler: She's not coming. Apparently, she's not in her right mind
Luke: What happened?
Tyler: Is this what you've been up to all summer? Messing with Elena's brain? Does it help with the guilt or are you just desperate for friends?
Luke: Where's Elena now?
Tyler: Why? So you can trick her into thinking Damon's alive? Who does that? She almost killed someone
Luke: You're drunk
Tyler: Don't touch me. Where's your magic now, Parker? What's wrong? You can't chant? You stay away from Elena, or you're gonna have a problem your magic wand can't fix
(Alaric intervenes)
Alaric: Hey! Knock it off. Knock it off. You got it under control, huh? Huh?
(Tyler leaves and Alaric looks at Luke)
Alaric: You want to tell me what that was about? Come on. Let's get out of here
[The Crypt]
(Elena is alone. Damon appears)
Elena: You can't be here. You're not even real. It's just my subconscious making me see what I want to see
Damon: One call from my brother and you're gonna throw all this away?
Elena: You know I want to see you, Damon. But it makes me reckless. I hurt people
Damon: So, why am I here? Do you want to move on? Move on
Elena: I never got to say thank you
Damon: For what?
Elena: For saving Stefan and...for bringing back Alaric and Tyler. Thank you
Damon: Elena…
Elena: No, I'm not done yet. I… I want to thank you for giving me everything I always wanted. A love that consumed me. And passion. Adventure. There's nothing more I could ever want other than for it to last forever, but... It can't. This is the last time I'm gonna see you. This is good-bye, Damon. I love you. I have to let go
Damon: You're still holding on
Elena: I… no. I... I said good-bye, Damon
Damon: I don't blame you. You know what's waiting for you. How long before you go running back to Luke?
Elena: No. I told you. That was the last time, Damon. I… I'm done
Damon: An eternity of torment, agony, and grief. And you feel it all
Elena: Stop it, Damon. Stop it, stop it. You're getting in my head. Don't do this. Please
Damon: You'll feel it forever
Elena: No!
[Whitmore College]
(Liv goes to confront Tyler)
Liv: Could you be more of a douchebag cliché?
Tyler: I got a little out of control. I know
Liv: A little? It's not Luke's fault that your friend's emotionally blackmailing him to fulfill whatever mental head case crap she's going through
Tyler: Grief. It's called grief. Your brother got to live that day, remember? The rest of us lost people because of him
Liv: I'm aware of that, Tyler. I think about it every day. So does Luke. A lot of you got your lives back, too, because of me. So, at the very least, do me a favor and lay off my brother
Tyler: You're right. I'm sorry
Liv: Yeah. Our twin powers don't work like that. You actually have to tell Luke to his face
Tyler: Well, I will. Listen. Liv, 4 months ago, I could do anything. I could make anyone do anything that I wanted. I was stronger than most people on this earth. And then it went away. And all that's left inside of me is rage
Liv: Why are you telling me this?
Tyler: Because I want you to understand that I am trying to deal with it
Liv: OK, good. Good luck dealing with it
Tyler: Why do you do that? I'm trying to talk to you and you just give me that look and walk away?
Liv: What would you like me to do, Tyler?
[A Diner]
(Caroline is on the phone)
Stefan: It's Stefan. Leave a message
Caroline: Hey. It's me. Just leaving another message about how today was not a good day. Everyone drifted apart. It's like everyone's pretending they can get through this alone. Elena's gone and I think she's so scared to accept what happened that she's become a completely different person. And if you ask me, Tyler's just hiding at Whitmore, pretending everything's fine as if he can outrun his werewolf gene or something. And Matt and Jeremy never leave Mystic Falls anymore. There's an invisible wall standing between us and them and nobody's doing anything about it. Part of me wonders if they hope we never find a way back in. And then there's me, just sitting in a diner on the border of town looking for a way to get our home back. We just lost two of our closest friends. We need each other. We need to be together, Stefan, or pretty soon we're just gonna end up pictures in a yearbook in a drawer somewhere, and so, that is why I am not going to stop calling you until you pick up the phone and I hear your voice and you tell me that you are going to help me fix it. Because I am not going to give up on us
[Whitmore College]
(Alaric is with Elena)
Elena: Do you like being a vampire?
Alaric: Why don't you get some sleep? We'll talk about it tomorrow when that crap's out of your system
Elena: Because with all the funerals and the start of the year... We never really talked about how you're dealing with all this
Alaric: You mean with me coming back to life? Well, moving away from Mystic Falls helped. And since my ex-girlfriend is happily married to a pediatrician up in Alaska, I didn't have any awkward reunions to handle
Elena: I meant the blood lust. The heightened emotions and immortality
Alaric: Honestly, Elena... I hate everything about being a vampire
Elena: Me too. At least I did. Then one day, I discovered the good part. You know... The promise that love could be eternal. And I had that with Damon. Which means for the rest of eternity, I'm gonna have a hole in my heart where he's supposed to be
Alaric: Trust me. It gets easier
Elena: I know how death works, Ric. Trust me. I have done it. A lot. There's no such thing as moving on. It's a lie. So, if I'm ever going to be able to fall in love again, and make eternity bearable, I need you to do something
Alaric: What?
Elena: You were created by the original vampire spell, which means you can compel other vampires. And since I can't take away my vampirism, I want you to take away Damon. I want you to compel me to forget that I ever loved him
[A Kitchen]
(Damon is making pancakes. He gives a plate to Bonnie)
Bonnie: Every day I tell you I hate that
Damon: And every day I do it. Bon appetit
