(Jeremy is out of the batting cage)
Damon: Katherine sired us, Rose sired Katherine, all we need to do is find out who sired Rose
Jeremy: So you traveled across the country to get me to talk to a dead vampire? And I'll make sure it's not you
Rebekah: Tenuous, but points for effort. And to get it, we need you to pass out
(He looks at Alaric)
Klaus: Which means that I feel totally justified doing this
(He rushes towards Alaric and breaks his neck. And when death came, she didn't fear it
Elena: I was with her on her last day, and she definitely wasn't in paradise
Jeremy: It was in the dream he gave her. At least until you guys can convince my highly uncooperative alter ego to confess where I... or...he hid the white oak stake
Elena: We looked everywhere. But this time I'm not going to make it so easy for you. Caroline: Tyler. Come on
(They enter the house. Damon: Yeah
(He puts his shoulder back in place)
Damon: That's better
(He looks at her, touches her face and sees that she's bleeding)
Damon: Are you ok? Elena is unpacking)
Jeremy: So what's up with you and Damon? Elena: Stefan thinks that I have feelings for you
Damon: Oh. Even when he's trying to be charming
Tyler: Charming? Give into it. He has a baseball bat in his hands)
Elena: Damon, it's Kol! He shows them a stake)
Klaus: Oh, and I found this upstairs. I know you're trying to find out who you descended from. I would have been more gentle
Rebekah: I'm going to take him to the caves
(She looks at Alaric)
Rebekah: You're going to go inside and fetch me the stake And if you think you can hide, you're wrong
(They leave)
Klaus: And then there was one. It was Mary Porter
Jeremy: She was sired by someone named Mary Porter
Damon: Ahh, scary Mary. Kol is sitting on a chair. Matt: It's the decade dance. No matter what I go through... To get her back... fighting my blood lust, trying to gain control of my life again... None of that matters if she has feelings for somebody else
[Denver]
(Damon and Elena arrive at a baseball camp. Pathetic
Stefan: Tell me where the stake is before I kill you
Alaric: You know, you're all going to burn. Stefan hesitates and finally hits him)
[A house in the middle of nowhere]
(Damon, Elena and Jeremy are in front of a house, next to their car)
Jeremy: This is the address
Damon: Looks about right
(She looks at Jeremy)
Elena: Wait here
Jeremy: Why? Stefan is different. Stefan's face has turned and his throws Alaric against the wall, on the other side of the cellar. Stefan: Look, Elena needed to go on that road trip with Damon. Tell them to sit tight. They get the bags ot of the car)
Damon: For the record, she's the one who wanted to stop in a motel, not me
(She looks at him)
Jeremy: So where are we? They kiss passionately and lengthily. They touch and kiss. Tyler looks around in her room and finds the drawing Klaus did for her. Where no vampire can get it
(He laughs.

He sends them on a trip together: first, to make sure Jeremy is safe in Denver and to see if his special abilities can reveal from which Original they are descended and second, to find out if Elena has feelings for Damon. While they are gone, Stefan will try to get the location of the final white oak stake out of Alaric's alter-ego. Damon and Elena find Jeremy and ask him to talk to Rose on the other side, but they are interrupted by Kol, whom Damon neutralizes with a stake. Damon and Elena take Jeremy to a motel where he speaks to Rose who sired Katharine who in turn sired the Salvatore brothers. She tells them she was sired by Mary Porter and that she'll find out where Mary is. Meanwhile, Stefan fails at trying to get the location of the stake out of Alaric until Klaus comes by and snaps Alaric's neck. Back in the motel, Damon and Elena give in to their passion and kiss. Meanwhile, Stefan is forced to beat up Alaric to trigger his evil alter-ego, who, after some persuasion, tells Stefan that the last white oak stake is in the cave, where no vampire can get it. Meanwhile, Damon, Elena and Jeremy go to the house where Mary lives. Damon and Elena go inside and find Mary staked on the wall. Kol has murdered Mary before Damon and Elena talk to her. Kol then beats Damon up with a metal baseball bat to get even with him. Damon later asks Elena about the kiss, and she admits that Stefan thinks she loves him and was testing her feelings. Damon becomes upset and tells her he is not going to make this decision easy for her, that she must decide completely on her own. Caroline is thrilled when Tyler returns to town, but Tyler soon suspects that something has been going on between Caroline and Klaus, when he finds the picture Klaus drew for Caroline. Elsewhere, Matt has his hands full trying to keep Rebekah busy organizing the school's upcoming 1920s Decade Dance so Caroline can spend some romantic time with Tyler. Esther shows up at Klaus' house where she confronts Rebekah and dies after undergoing a strange fit. At the end of the episode it is revealed that Esther tricked Rebekah into giving her body to her and she wants alter-ego Alaric to work with her.
