[Whitmore College]
(Jesse is tied up in Dr. Maxfield's lab)
Jesse: Dr. Maxfield, please. Why are you doing this? My insides, they're burning up. I'm hungry
(Dr. Maxfield gets closer and speaks in a recorder)
Dr.Maxfield: Subject 62547. After his initial transition, 62547 has undergone 3 day without feeding. Subject is weak but lucid. Upper left and right cusped normal after blood stimulus is removed
Jesse: What are you doing to me?
Dr.Maxfield: Pupils are at full dilation. Sensitivity to light... sensitivity to light an obvious 11 on a scale from one to 10
Jesse: What the hell is happening to me? Why am I so hungry? What are you doing to me?
Dr. Maxfield: Subject is confused yet self-aware. Personality seems intact. Hunger remains primary focus. All in all appears to be a perfect candidate
(Elena is outside, writing in her diary)
Elena: Dear diary, do you ever get sick of me writing about death?It's been 4 days since Bonnie died... or 4 days since I found out Bonnie died. She wanted me to go back to school, so here I am, back at school... studying, going to class, trying to move on like everyone else. Stefan had it easiest. He doesn't even remember Bonnie, not that anybody has seen him except for Caroline, who's back with Tyler. He's been a healthy distraction for her, to say the least... And I've adopted my own distraction... Dr. Wes Maxfield. My roommate was killed by a vampire. Dr. Maxfield covered it up, and I'd like to know why
(Dr. Maxfield rejoins her)
Dr. Maxfield Welcome back. See you at the costume ball tonight?
Elena: I wouldn't miss it
(He leaves)
Elena: Besides, the more I have to think about, the less time I have to miss Bonnie...
(Bonnie is next to her)
Bonnie: I'm right here, Elena, and I miss you, too
Elena: But in the meantime, I choose to believe that she's watching over me because that's who Bonnie is
(Damon rejoins her)
Damon: Busted
Elena: Hey
Damon: Hey, miss avoiding me for 3 days
Elena: Avoiding you? What? We've been talking
Damon: Texting. One time. "Want to be my plus one at a costume ball?" Winky face
Elena: And you never replied. So I'm guessing this special, in-person visit means yes
Damon: Definitely will maybe consider thinking about it
Elena: It's at 8:00. Caroline got us costumes
Damon: Where you going?
Elena: To class. I'm late
(Caroline and Tyler are lying on the floor)
Caroline: Oh, before I forget, I talked to the registrar, and your major is-- drum roll--Sociology...
Tyler: How about we don't talk about my major right now?
Caroline: And I compelled you a single
Tyler: Definitely don't want to talk about my dorm room
Caroline: Well, we could talk about the hybrid-sized jerk that you've been for not calling me back ever
Tyler: How many times do you want me to tell you? I've been helping a werewolf pack in the land of no cell phone reception
Caroline: Well, lucky for you, I figured out a way for you to make up for it
Tyler: I thought I did make up for it a couple dozen times
(She laughs)
Caroline: You are escorting me to the Whitmore historical ball
Tyler: The what?
Caroline: It's the one time a year where they put their whole collection on display and everyone dresses up as famous historical figures. I got Stefan a costume. Even he's going. Come on, Tyler. I mean, how cute will we be as Bonnie and Clyde?
Tyler: Seriously?
Caroline: You're right. Let's not talk
(Elena walks by Megan's memorial and sees a guy standing in front of it. She rejoins him)
Elena: Hey
Aaron: Hey
Elena: I'm Elena. Megan used to be my roommate. Did you know her?
Aaron: We knew each other growing up
Elena: Oh, wow. I'm sorry. Pretty sad memorial, huh?
Aaron: Guess it's not exactly cool to mourn during fall rush
Elena: Everyone mourns differently. Some do flowers. Other do what their loved ones would've wanted
Aaron: Yeah. Well, what Megan would have wanted was to still be here alive
Elena: They said she committed suicide
Aaron: Yeah. I know. That's what they said
Elena: So then what do you think happened?
Aaron: Yeah. If you care about her, get her sunflowers. She liked those
Elena: Hey, do you have a name?
Aaron: Yeah. I do
(He leaves)
[A Hotel Room]
(Nadia is on the phone with Silas and Katherine is lying on the bed)
Nadia: Cut to the chase, Silas. What do you want?
Silas: I want Katherine Pierce. What do you think I want?
Nadia: So do I, which is why I took her away from you. You can have your brown-eyed bitch of a cure for immortality when I'm done
Silas: But you've had her all night long. So how much longer do you need?
Nadia: Aren't you immortal? What's a few more hours to you?
Silas: Here's the thing, Nadia. I don't really care about what you need. I only care about what I need. I'm a little selfish like that
Nadia: Then why don't you mind-control a whole town of people and find out where I'm holding her? Right. You can't
Silas: I'm very well aware of my current super power predicament, thank you very much, and even though my brain is on the Fritz, thanks to an ex-fiancée stalker witch who can't seem to take a hint, that doesn't mean that I'm not still brilliant and crafty and becoming rapidly well-versed in the power of cell phone tracking
(She hangs up)
Katherine: Little tip, woman to woman... don't piss off the diabolical ones, and if you're gonna hold me hostage, the least you can do is feed my properly
Nadia: We'll eat lunch on the road. Let's get out of here
Katherine: Or just hand me over, let him take his little sip of my blood so that he can cure himself of immortality, and we can all be on our merry way back to finer accommodations
Nadia: A little tip, woman to woman... don't offer to hand yourself over to the diabolical ones when you don't know the whole story
Katherine: Indulge me. What's the whole story?
Nadia: Silas needs more than just a sip to cure himself. He needs every last drop of your blood in your body
Katherine: But I'm a human now. If he did that, then...
Nadia: You die. Now come on. Let's go
[Salvatore's House]
(Damon is in the living room with Jeremy)
Damon: So, as we know, in a psychotic lapse of judgment, Bonnie brought you back to life and died in the process. May she rest in peace
Jeremy: She's actually right over there
(She's sitting on a chair)
Damon: Whatever. Look. The whole point is, I just happen to know a supernatural being who just happens to want to die, and in the spirit of nature needing balance and life for a life and all that stuff, I just think it would be a huge waste of a perfectly good death
Jeremy: What are you talking about?
Damon: Something Elena doesn't need to know about until it works
Jeremy: Wait. You want to work with Silas?
[Mystic Grill]
(Silas and Damon are at the bar)
Silas: So... Why did you call me?
Damon: Same reason you answered. You need help, and I'm gonna help you
[Salvatore's House]
Damon: From the beginning, Silas' whole bad-guy plan was to kill himself, pass on to wherever he was gonna pass on to, and reunite with his dead girlfriend Amara I want to use his death to bring Bonnie back to life
[Mystic Grill]
Silas: What makes you think that I need help?
Damon: Well, for starters, you're still here, as in why do you suck so badly at killing yourself?
[Salvatore's House]
Damon: To die, he has to be mortal. If he's mortal, then he's a witch, and if he dies as a witch, then he's stuck on the other side forever
Jeremy: He already tried to bring down the veil to the other side. He failed
Bonnie: Maybe he has a plan "B." Maybe he wants to do more than just drop the veil and let all the ghosts out
Damon: She knows I can't hear her, right?
Jeremy: She thinks Silas wants to destroy the other side completely
Bonnie: Powerful spells are bound by something even more powerful... the moon, a comet, a doppelganger. The other side was made 2,000 years ago, and it still exists. That means she must have bound it to something that could exist just as long
[Mystic Grill]
Silas: A mystical anchor. That's what binds her spell to the other side. I want to destroy it. Qetsiyah, or Tessa or whatever the hell she's calling herself these days, she wants to protect it. So she's the only person that knows where the anchor is hidden, but fortunately, she will be at the Whitmore historical ball this evening
Damon: Really? Thought you said you lost all of your psychic powers
Silas: Oh, I did, but I still have my incredible powers of observation, and I observed her buying a Cleopatra costume today
[Salvatore's House]
Damon: Back to my original question, let's say Silas destroys the other side, cures himself, becomes a witch. Is it supernaturally possible that he can do a spell that swaps her life for his life once he... pfft... kills himself?
Bonnie: Supernaturally, yeah, it's possible, but this is the same Silas who murdered my father. He's ruthless, and whatever spell he could do, there'll be some consequences. There always is. So no. My answer is, definitely not
Damon: What'd she say? Tell me?
Jeremy: She's in
Bonnie: What?
[Mystic Grill]
Damon: So we have a deal
Silas: Well, we have half a deal. I'm resurrecting some witch with my death, but we have yet to discuss how you're helping me
Damon: Well, you've yet to tell me what you want
Silas: Oh, it's fairly simple, actually. I want you to kill your brother
[A restaurant]
(Nadia and Katherine are sitting at a table)
Nadia: I've been tailing you for 500 years. There are a few things I'd like to clear up
Katherine: Why would I tell you anything?
Nadia: You indulge me in some answers, and I will let you go
Katherine: Really? My freedom in exchange for a little Q&A? Hmm. Ok
Nadia: In 1864, there was a vampire roundup in Mystic Falls
Katherine: Was there? I'm bad with dates
Nadia: Word on the street is that you sold out many vampires, including your best friend Pearl and her daughter Annabelle
Katherine: I was running from Klaus. I needed to jet solo. I threw a couple of vampire names on the hit list. Sue me. I also impersonated a teenager to get my ex-boyfriends to make out with me, staged a fake fight to trigger my lover's werewolf curse, ooh, and I chopped off this douchey guy's fingers with a butcher knife once. That was cool
Nadia: What about ripping a mother away from her daughter, having her killed for your own benefit?
Katherine: What are you getting at?
Nadia: Now a little bit about me. I had myself turned into a vampire to hunt you, to even the playing field, to track your every move for however long it took me until I found you, and I did this because you killed my mother. It happened in Paris, 1645
Katherine: I go to Paris for shoes. The shoes I remember. Everything else requires a few more details
Nadia: Her name was Lily Atoma. You were on the run from Klaus. She took you in, but when his minions showed up, you pointed at my mom, and you said, "That is Katerina Petrova. She is the one you want." So they took her away
Katherine: You were never gonna let me go, were you?
Nadia: No, but I'd hate for you to die on an empty stomach. Time to go
[Salvatore's House]
(Bonnie is with Jeremy)
Bonnie: You need to call Damon and tell him you lied
Jeremy: So I can lie for you all summer as your witch translator, but when it's something I want...
Bonnie: Silas is too dangerous
Jeremy: And bringing me back to life wasn't? Oh, right, it killed you
Bonnie: I brought you back because Elena needed you
Jeremy: Now she needs you
Bonnie: What about the consequences? Haven't we learned this by now? When you abuse magic, there's always a price
Jeremy: What is worse than this? What is worse than seeing you and hearing you... And not being able to feel you? This isn't enough anymore. Let Damon try to bring you back
[Whitmore College]
(Caroline and Tyler arrive at the historical ball)
Tyler: Wow. All of this, and you weren't even on the dance committee
Caroline: I may have e-mailed them a few suggestions
Tyler: Did I mention you're the hottest serial killer in here?
Caroline: Well, considering the crowd, I'll take that as a compliment
(He sees Stefan)
Tyler: I thought you got Stefan a costume
Caroline: He's James Dean. I went easy on him. I figured, between the blood lust drama, the Damon-Elena drama, the abuser drama, he's been through enough
(Stefan rejoins them)
Stefan: Hey, dance with me. I'm buzzed, and I'm on the verge of having a good time
Tyler: Have fun. I'll get us drinks
(Elena rejoins Damon)
Damon: Lady Anne Boleyn. Now, who in their right mind would cut off a head so gorgeous?
Elena: Uh, you, my King, my not-so-loving husband
Damon: Well, maybe I can dance my way out of this doghouse
Elena: Yeah, maybe. Maybe later
Damon: Ooh, or maybe you can tell me what's going on with you. Come on
Elena: Bonnie died 3 months ago, and what was I doing? I was having the summer of my life with you
Damon: Ah, guilt. Don't know it, but I've heard it can be a real bitch
Elena: I know that it's not my fault that Bonnie died, but it is my fault for not figuring it out sooner
Damon: Elena, you are allowed to be happy once in a blue moon. Besides, Jeremy was lying to us all summer
Elena: I should've figured it out, Damon. I know that it's not the same, but I'm not gonna let Megan's death fall through the cracks, too
(She looks at Aaron)
Damon: Who the hell is that?
Elena: It's Megan's hometown friend, i.e. the latest person of interest in the Whitmore mystery. I'll be right back
(Elena rejoins Aaron)
Elena: Hey, whatever your name is. Nice T-shirt, understated
Aaron: Hey, whatever you're supposed to be
Elena: Anne Boleyn, pre-beheading, obviously
Aaron: Impressed
Elena: So does a costume compliment earn me like, a formal introduction?
Aaron: Why do you want to know who I am?
(She compels him)
Elena: Did you kill Megan?
Aaron: Of course not
Elena: Then why are you acting so shady?
Aaron: Because everyone around me dies. It's like a curse. My friends, my family... one by one, I've lost every single person in my life. So if you had any idea what survivor's guilt felt like, you'd leave me alone
Elena: Forget about my questions
Aaron: It's Aaron. My name. I'll see you around maybe
(Tessa is at the bar, dressed as Cleopatra. Stefan rejoins her)
Tessa: Where I come from, open bar meant ceramic jugs of Phoenician wine
Stefan: Ok
Tessa: You have no idea who I am, do you?
Stefan: No offense, but actually, I have no idea who a lot of people are
Tessa: Tessa, formerly known as Qetsiyah
Stefan: The girl who wiped my memories
Tessa: Nothing personal, little ex-boyfriend drama. Let me make it up to you, buy you an "I'm sorry" drink
(Damon rejoins them)
Damon: More like an "I'm sorry" keg. Come on
(They go in another room)
Stefan: You, my brother, make a terrible wingman
Damon: Trust me; last guy to hit on her is still paying for it
Stefan: So what, exactly, are we doing here?
Damon: Well...
(Silas appears)
Silas: Hello me
(Damon breaks Stefan's neck)
Damon: So you want to explain to me why I just killed my brother?
Silas: Well, Tessa's spell mentally linked us. I lost my psychic abilities. Stefan lost his memories
Damon: And this severed the link?
Silas: Yes, Damon. I can read your mind again. No. I'm not lying, and maybe you enjoyed breaking your brother's neck just a little bit too much
Damon: Sold
Silas: I'll cozy up to the witch and sift through her mind, figure out where she's hiding the anchor, and you, all you got to do is keep him dead
Damon: Isn't Tess gonna be slightly suspicious when the man whose brain she just fried is all of a sudden showing interest in her?
Silas: Of all the men here, Tessa went straight for Stefan.This face won her heart before. See, a woman never forgets her first love, no matter how badly it ended
(Silas, posing as Stefan, rejoins Tessa)
Tessa: Ah, look who's back. Am I in trouble?
Silas: Well, according to my brother, I am supposed to hate you
Tessa: And do you?
Silas: I'll tell you after that drink. Good. You like Tequila
Tessa: Yes, but not as much as bacon. In my day, it was all about lamb. No one thought to cure pig fat
Silas: God, you have the most beautiful smile
Tessa: You gonna stare at it all night, or are you gonna ask me to dance?
(Caroline and Tyler are dancing)
Caroline: Hey, you want to get out of here? These costumes come with handcuffs, and you have a single
Tyler: Look, Care. I didn't just come back here to get you in bed
Caroline: I know. It's just... A happy by-product of us being in school together
Tyler: No. I mean...
Caroline: What?
Tyler: I'm just really glad to be here
(Silas and Tessa are also dancing)
Silas: So what brings you to a college costume ball?
Tessa: Look at me. Last time I looked this good, I couldn't enjoy it
Silas: Oh, that's right, the whole "being stood up at your wedding" thing
Tessa: You shouldn't know that. I told you that before I fried your memories
Silas: Ok. You got me. I might have asked around about you
Tessa: And I'm paranoid. That's what I get for trying to marry a lying, manipulative b*st*rd
Silas: Oh, come on. The guy must've had some redeeming qualities. I mean, we know he was obviously extremely good-looking...But, I mean, was the guy at least funny?
Tessa: Are you defending him?
Silas: No, no. It's just that you've been on this revenge kick for 2,000 years, and maybe hating him is an excuse to keep him in your life. There's a part of you that still loves him
Tessa: Now, I really hope he thinks that. I want to see his face when he realizes just how wrong he is
Silas: Ok. I got to admit, there's a part of me that just wanted to hear you say that you still love me.That's how big my ego is, but since you're obviously in denial...
Tessa: Oh, my God, Silas...
Silas: Now, where's the anchor to the other side?
Tessa: I don't know. I'm looking for it, too
Silas: What do you mean, you don't know? You created it
Tessa: Yes, I created it, but the Travelers hid it after they killed me. They move it constantly
Silas: So what are you doing here?
Tessa: My pendant is in one of these displays. It's a magical talisman that enhances my powers. I need it to do a locator spell so I can find the anchor
Silas: Well, then get to it and forget everything we just spoke about
Tessa: Thank you for the dance
Silas: Thank you
(Stefan starts to wake up and looks at Damon)
Stefan: Hey, hey, breaking my neck, huh?
Damon: Yeah
Stefan:Pumping me full of Vervain. All we need is a Damon-sized rationalization
Damon: Oh, the new you sucks
Stefan: How would the old me deal with this, barrel full of laughs?
Damon: He'd know it wasn't about him
Stefan: Oh, who's it about, Damon, huh, about you, your desperation to prove to Elena that you're a worthy boyfriend?
Damon: I'm gonna get her best friend back, ok?
[SCENE_BREAK]
[An alley]
(Nadia is hurt. Katherine rejoins her)
Katherine: There you are. Having trouble getting that out? I grazed your heart on purpose
Nadia: Which means you didn't want me dead? You still want something
Katherine: I do. I want to know why you made up that fake story about your mom
Nadia: It was a test. You failed
Katherine: I knew it was a fake story. By 1645, I'd been running from Klaus for a century and a half. There's no way any of his minions would have mistaken anyone for me, but you know how my brain works, right? So you must have known that I wouldn't have fallen for that sob story
Nadia: I wanted to get under your skin, and it worked because here you are
Katherine: What kind of sick game are you playing?
Nadia: It's not a game, Katherine. You did kill my mother, only it wasn't in Paris. It was in a little cottage in England, and it wasn't 1645. It was April 6, 1492, and she was all alone, exiled by her family two years earlier. You stuck her head in a noose, pushed her off the chair, and snapped her neck
Katherine: Who are you?
Nadia: My name... is Nadia Petrova... And you're my mother
Katherine: Uh... no
[Whitmore College]
(Elena sees Dr. Maxfield)
Dr. Maxfield: You look like a woman on her way to the guillotine
Elena: Actually, she was beheaded with a sword
Dr. MAxfield: See? And that's why I teach Bio
Elena: And you are Abe Lincoln?
Dr. Maxfield: Dr. Jekyll
Elena: Ah, ok. Yeah. I can see that. So where's Mr. Hyde?
Dr. Maxfield: I don't know. I'm not responsible for my darker half
Elena: So would it be totally inappropriate if a student asked you to dance?
Dr. Maxfield: Who could refuse a Queen? Besides, you're not, nor will you ever be, one of my students
Elena: Major points for the dance moves, but zero points for lying on my roommate's death certificate
Dr. Maxfield: Look. I didn't want to lie, but I couldn't exactly tell her parents a mountain lion attacked her at a frat party. I'd be fired. Want to know my theory?
Elena: What's that?
Dr. Maxfield: I think a vampire hunted her down, ripped her throat out, and threw her off that roof
Elena: What do you know about vampires?
Dr. Maxfield: Doesn't matter what I know, Elena, because we're never gonna see each other again
Elena: And why is that?
Dr. Maxfield:Because there are people at this school watching you and your friends and asking questions you don't want them to ask. So pack your things, drop out, and move back to Mystic Falls
(Caroline rejoins Tyler)
Caroline: Hey... Here you are. What are you doing?
Tyler: Look, Care... I can't do the college thing right now
Caroline: Yeah. I completely understand. I have been pushing way too hard, and, you know, you need to make your own decisions. Point is, you're back, and we're together
Tyler: Do you know the reason we're together? It's because Klaus granted us permission to be together. I'm sorry, but I can't live like that
Caroline: I see. So this is about Klaus
Tyler: No. This is about me. He killed my mom and got away with it. I can't just start caring about sociology and frat parties
Caroline: You haven't even given it a chance
Tyler: I didn't come here to give it a chance
Caroline: You came here to say good-bye
Tyler: I need to go after him. I need to find a way to destroy his life like he destroyed mine
Caroline: You know what, Tyler? For someone who hates Klaus, you certainly sound a lot like him
(Tessa is performing a spell. Silas, still posing as Stefan, enters)
Tessa: Stefan. Come to see the show?
Silas: What are you doing?
Tessa: I'm using this pendant to find something I'm looking for, and I found it
Silas: Good
(His head suddenly hurts)
Tessa: Stefan?
(Stefan moves)
Damon: You awake? Stefan? You alive again?
Stefan: How does it feel, brother?
(Silas is still suffering)
Tessa: Stefan... Stefan, are you ok?
(Stefan enters)
Stefan: Tessa, that's Silas
Tessa: No
Stefan: He's working with my brother. Everything he said to you was a lie
(He leaves)
Tessa: That's all he knows how to do... lie. You know where the anchor is. Too bad you won't be around to find it.
Silas: You can't kill me
Tessa: I don't have to kill you yet
Silas: You love me. You know you love me
Tessa: I did love you... And then you broke my heart, and now I'm gonna break yours... Or at least stop it from working so your blood can't flow and your veins dry up and you rot from the inside out so the world can see you exactly as you are... cold, gray, hideous, you monster
(Dr. Maxfield rejoins Aaron)
Dr.Maxfield: Where do you think you're going?
Aaron: What?
Dr.Maxfield: Give them. Come on
Aaron: I'm fine
Dr.Maxfield: He said, releasing molecules of alcohol on his breath
Aaron: You know, you sound like that dad who thinks he's cool, but isn't
Dr.Maxfield: Well, I'll settle for that very uncool and mildly responsible legal guardian. Keys...Now
Aaron: Can I have some money for a cab? I mean, you do manage my trust, right?
Dr.Maxfield: I saw you talking to Elena Gilbert. Do yourself a favor. Stay away from that one
Aaron: Why?
Dr.Maxfield: Because behind my very uncool exterior, I do care about you, Aaron
Aaron: Whatever
Dr.Maxfield: Be safe
(Elena enters and discovers Silas. Damon's here)
Elena: Oh, my God. Stefan
Damon: That ain't Stefan
Elena: Silas? Damn it.What the hell is going on?
Damon: Looks like Tessa had her way with him
Elena: So if that's Silas, then he's not a problem anymore. This is a good thing, right?
Damon: Actually, no. It's a very, very bad thing
[A hotel room]
(Nadia wakes up. Katherine is here)
Nadia: You're a fool not to run. Silas will find you
Katherine: Or he won't. You're the one who said it. I'm pretty good at dodging the diabolical ones. Besides, Silas doesn't need me until he figures out how to destroy the other side. If he cures himself before then, he goes back to being a witch. He dies as a witch, well; he's stuck in supernatural Purgatory. There's just been one outstanding question that's just been nagging at me for the last 500 years. Where were you in 1498?
Nadia: I don't know. I was 8. Why?
Katherine: Because by 1498, I'd escaped, ditched the people that were chasing me, and found my way back to Bulgaria. I searched every village, every cottage, but I couldn't find you
Nadia: You went back?
Katherine: Yes, Nadia. I went back for you. It's nice to meet you
[Whitmore College]
(Caroline returns to her room. Tyler is packing)
Caroline: Hey
Tyler: Hey. Care...
Caroline: wait. I've been thinking about it, and I've decided that... I'm not going to have this conversation again. I can't just sit here while I'm waiting for you to come back
Tyler: I don't want that, either
Caroline: Then stay; just be the love of my life. Just love me more than you hate him
Tyler: I'm sorry, Care. I can't do that
Caroline: No. No. No! Don't you dare walk away from me. I swear to God, Tyler, if you take one more step, we are done, ok?No more surprises, no more excuses, no more chances. We are done
(He leaves)
[Salvatore's House]
(Silas is on the couch. Damon and Elena are there)
Damon: So professor blondie knows about vampires?
Elena: He said that if I don't drop out of school, the wrong people are gonna start asking the right questions
Damon: Ugh, that's not good. What are you gonna do?
Elena: I don't know, but all I do know is that finding out the truth about Megan isn't gonna bring Bonnie back
Damon: Yeah. Well, neither is a desiccated Silas in our living room
Elena: So the only way for Silas to trade in his life for Bonnie's is if he's a witch, but the only way to become a witch is to have the cure
Damon: Yep
(Someone knocks on the door)
Elena: What?
Damon: Now, who could that be?
(It's Katherine)
Damon: Why, hello
Katherine: What's so urgent? I'm on the run. Don't exactly have time for a pit stop.Or maybe I do. Maybe I have all the time in the world. Katherine Pierce eludes death yet again...and you two finally did something right for once. How does it feel?
Damon: Thrilling
(She understands something)
Katherine: Damon, no
Damon: He needs the cure to become a witch
Katherine: No. No. No, Damon. No, no, please. He need all of my blood. It'll kill me, Damon. Damon, please, I don't want to die. I don't want to die, Damon. I don't want to die. Please
Damon: Good-bye, Katherine
(She dies at the hands of Damon and Silas)
Damon: Do you hear that?
Elena: You've got to be kidding me
Damon: Takes a licking, keeps on ticking
(Katherine wakes up)
Katherine: Am I in hell?

Summary: Elena tries to move on after the revelation of Bonnie's death.

But the only way they could bring back Bonnie is by killing Stefan, that's what Silas' offer is. After a public meal Nadia reveals to Katherine that she is responsible for her mother's death in Paris when Klaus' minions came for her. Katherine attacks Nadia in the restaurant and escapes. At the Monster's Ball, Damon kills Stefan to temporarily restore psychic powers to Silas in order to get in Qetsiyah's mind and find the location of a supernatural marker. Believing that Silas is Stefan, Qetsiyah dance with Silas and once his powers are restored he compels Qetsiyah to reveal where the marker is. Qetsiyah divulges that she doesn't know the location of the marker, as the Travelers hid it after they killed her and move it constantly, she is instead looking for an amulet that amplifies her powers. Stefan revives from his most recent snapped-neck and snaps Damon's neck, rushing to save Qetsiyah from Silas. Retaliating, Qetsiyah crushes Silas' heart, though it won't kill him, it will cause him to rot from the inside out. A tense conversation with Wes and Elena ends with him telling her to pack her bags, drop out of school and return to Mystic Falls, stating that they won't see each other again. Meanwhile, Nadia shocks Katherine by telling her that Katherine did in fact killed her mother when she became a vampire as Nadia is Katherine's daughter. With revenge on his mind, Tyler decides to go after Klaus and ends his relationship with Caroline, seemingly for good, in the process. Damon and Elena use Katherine to bring Silas back as a witch, but despite being drained of blood, Katherine revives.
