( Caroline waits in the road with Caroline as another car pulls up at the border )
Stefan: They're here. ( Matt watches Tripp die as he exsanguinates; he turns toward Stefan and Caroline )
Matt: What the hell did you do? Bonnie turns and runs, trying to leave the hospital; the first door is locked but she gets out another way. Caroline: Tripp? Caroline: We said that we would never talk about this again, so just...
Stefan: Look, Caroline, please just talk to me. Elena: I want my memories back. Enough to let you go. Enzo must have turned him into a vampire before we got there. Get off me! Liam: As in the ex who died? No. Now she needs to get her cartilage cleaned out every 6 months. Remember that. Sheriff Forbes: Sorry, Stefan. Tripp: Your friends who kill people. Whatever you did for Elena, that's her choice.
Plan: A: Damon; Q: Who grabs Elena before she crosses the border? A: no luck; Q: Did Damon and Elena have any luck getting her memories back? A: time; Q: What does Damon grab Elena in? A: her dorm; Q: Where does Damon drop Elena off? A: Stefan; Q: Who does Caroline talk to about Enzo's comment? A: Tripp; Q: Who do Stefan and Caroline need to get back? A: Caroline's mom; Q: Who is in danger of being killed? A: a vampire; Q: What did Enzo turn Tripp into? A: Mystic Falls; Q: What is the name of the town? A: Sheriff Forbes; Q: Who do Stefan and Caroline take to the hospital? A: Liam; Q: Who tells Elena that he is close to knowing how the girl who was in the maze recovered so quickly? A: her blood; Q: What made the girl in the maze heal so quickly? Summary: Damon and Elena try to get back her memories with no luck, Elena gives up and crosses the border but Damon grabs her in time that she does not die. Elena only remembers bits and pieces but not enough to love Damon again. Damon decides to let Elena go while dropping her off at her dorm. Meanwhile, Stefan and Caroline need to get Tripp back from Enzo before the people who want Tripp back kill Caroline's mom. Enzo secretly turns Tripp into a vampire without Caroline or Stefan knowing. Tripp crosses the Mystic Falls border and dies, while Caroline gets her mom back. Caroline sees that they hurt her mom and along with Stefan, they take Sheriff Forbes to the hospital and while waiting for her, Stefan and Caroline talk about what Enzo said earlier (that Caroline loved Stefan and how he did not notice). They talk and Stefan apologizes for not knowing, which gets Caroline mad. Liam tells Elena that he is close to knowing how the girl who was in the maze recovered so quickly, which makes Elena alarmed since it was her blood that made the girl healed.
