Caroline: So if you don't know each other, then how did you all just happen to end up at the same tiny liberal arts school? ( Jo smiles as Elena looks relieved )

[ PORTLAND, REAL WORLD ]
( Damon rings the doorbell of the house and the three of them wait on the porch; Alaric is holding Ms. Cuddles )
Stefan: Anybody want to take a stab at how Bonnie's Teddy bear undid whatever was cloaking this place? ( Jo stumbles forward as Elena and Liam try to help her )
Elena: Jo, what's wrong? ( Kai walks onto the porch of a house, which is where Alaric, Damon and Stefan are in the real world )
Kai: Pitter-patter of little siblings' feet, witchy-woo, chanting in the air, mom and dad calling me an abomination. ( Stefan and Damon talk while Alaric continues talking to Elena )
Stefan: Hey. ): Which just pissed him off more. Alaric: Jo said she kept it with her to ensure that Kai would never be released. Bonnie: I had Thanksgiving dinner with you. Bonnie: So you agree? Bonnie: You could have brought me anywhere in the world, and you took me to Portland? Damon: Not unlike Caroline's feelings for Stefan. Damon: To keep Kai from using her to get out. He breaks it, creating a rudimentary stake; he raises his hand as though to stake Damon, but Stefan enters with vampire speed, holding the knife against Joshua's throat, but Joshua subdues him with magic; Stefan falls to the ground )
Joshua: Invisique. He honestly thought Bonnie died trying to free him. Her dad's trying to kill her? His ability to siphon magic will overwhelm Jo, and she will die, and our coven will be left to the whims of a madman. I need to know how you got out. I'm not going to let you die. If you and Liv can both be the leaders of your coven, why did she just get so upset? Jo: In our coven's tradition, after their 22nd birthday, the twins merge their strength. Jo: Kai killed 4 of our bothers and sisters to make a point, but he was really targeting Lukas and Olivia. Jo: My dad's trying to kill me. Joshua: Does Kai know how to escape? Kai: About that. Kai: I also have the Ascendant. Liam... ( looks significantly at Liv and Luke ) Is still here. Liv: No, Tyler. Luke: Because there aren't two leaders, are there, Jo? One last dinner, and then we peacefully go our separate ways. That whole repeating the same day thing, phew, disconcerting. Um, did you...
Jo: Risk my career switching Lady Whitmore's medical chart? You have to find her dad and stop him from whatever he's doing to her. [SCENE_BREAK]

Joshua: If Kai has access to an Ascendant and is sharing his prison with the Bennett witch, he will eventually find his way out.

Kai takes Bonnie to the same location and tells her his parents called him an abomination and tried all they could to keep their home hidden. Damon and Alaric tease Stefan about Caroline's feelings for him prompting Stefan to kick Bonnie's Teddy bear into the air and uncloaking a house. Liam apologizes to Elena for false accusations after Jo had altered Lady Whitmore's medical track. Kai agrees to let Bonnie leave unharmed with his car if she has one last dinner with him. In a surprising turn of events it is revealed that Kai is Jo's twin brother, Luke and Liv are both siblings to them and stem from the same family. Kai killed his four siblings targeting Luke and Liv to be the Covens leader. While searching for answers, Damon meets Kai's father, Joshua, who casts another cloaking spell on him. As Damon wakes Joshua demands to know how he got out the trap of repeated hell and if Kai also knows the how to escape. The twins explain that there can not be two leaders in the coven and on their 22nd birthday one of them has to die. Joshua explains that he can not help Damon bring out Bonnie because if Kai escapes, he will be a problem to the world. He starts a spell to kill Jo and then tries to kill Damon but Stefan arrives in time to fend him off with a magic knife Jo spelled in 1994 while at the same time, Elena saves Jo with her blood much to Liam's shock whom she compels afterwards. Kai explains the logic of his exile to Bonnie, reveals the same spelled knife and sucks out its magic. He then tells Bonnie he does not need her anymore but needs her blood and stabs her. Tyler vows to protect Liv and Stefan tries to make peace with Caroline who hands him a gift. Elena and Damon discuss their relationship. Finally Bonnie recovers from the stab and discovers Kai took the car and left her there.
