Graduation
With chairs set up on the high school...
more
With chairs set up on the high school football field for graduation, Kol addresses all the victims of the massacres who have risen with the veil dropped.
Meanwhile, Lexie enjoys her return to the living by rocking out to 80s Bon Jovi with Stefan. Damon returns, wondering if they should do something about the "supernatural apocalypse." Stefan plans to drink.
Dead-Arisen Bonnie calls Caroline explaining that she hit a "snag" putting the veil back up. She has to wait until the full moon tonight to have enough power to do it. Caroline makes her promise they won't let ghosties and ghoulies get in the way of graduation, another event that Caroline is hyping and clinging to with teenage fervor.
When Bonnie gets off the phone, her Grams makes her promise to tell her friends that she has died and to say her good-byes. Grams will guard her body in the cave.
Meanwhile, Elena hangs out with Alaric and Jeremy, who gorge on fast food while they can. With her humanity back on, Elena is feeling happy with her family.
She gets a call from Matt's phone -- it's Connor at the Grille.
Alexander holds Rebekah and Matt captive in a parking lot. Matt is standing on a pressure switch bomb, but Rebekah won't leave him.
Galen Vaughn, the hunter from the island, shows up on Damon's doorstep and shoots him for good measure.
Connor explains to Elena that they want Silas' body and the cure. Connor threatens all the families in the Grille in town for graduation if she doesn't do what he wants.
At the Salvatore house, Vaughn explains to Damon that Qetsiyah found him in the bottom of the well Damon left him in and gave him the mission to find and kill Silas. Stefan comes up behind Vaughn and stabs him.
Alaric finds Connor at the Grille. Connor is strapped in C4 but Alaric grabs him and rushes him to the back before it explodes.
Back in the parking lot on, Rebekah contemplates whether she can get Matt off the switch to safety before he explodes. She tells him all the sights of the world she wants to show him. It's a date.
At the high school, Katherine comes to Bonnie for the immortality she was promised. She threatens Elena if Bonnie doesn't deliver.
Elena comes to Damon at his house, saying there are things they need to talk about. First, he tries to give her the cure. She wants it, but can't take it because the hunters will kill everyone in town if she does. She turns it down, which settles the sire bond question.
Downstairs, Stefan tells Lexie that Elena is the love of his life and he'd go back to her in a heartbeat if she wants him. If not, he'll leave town.
On the floor, dead Galen Vaughn gets up from the dead - again.
Elena sees Damon flinch. The bullet Vaughn shot him with was laced with werewolf venom. Elena realizes it will kill Damon and urges him to take the cure. Instead, he goes downstairs and gives the cure to Galen and goes to dig up Silas to save the town.
Damon takes Galen to the quarry he dumped Silas' calcified body in.
Rebekah holds Matt in place on the pressure bomb. He reminds her he's wearing the Gilbert ring and can't be killed. She thinks exploding might trump that, but declares that the first rule of truly living is to do something you're afraid of. She kisses him and takes his place.She tells him to run; she can't be killed and he can't miss graduation. He runs, she steps off and explodes.
Back at the house, Stefan tells Elena that Damon is really stalling -- he hasn't had time to bury Silas yet. Stefan will go to New Orleans to get Klaus' blood himself if he has to.
Caroline leaves Klaus a message begging him to come back and cure Damon.Bonnie, Stefan, Matt, Caroline and Elena meet up before graduation. Bonnie soaks up the moment, but doesn't tell anyone her secret.
Graduation begins, Bonnie's dad reads the graduates' names as they cross the stage. Bonnie thanks him and hugs him. One by one, they all cross the stage.
Kol shows up at graduation and tells Bonnie he doesn't want the veil back up -- he wants it dropped completely so he and his friends can live.
Bonnie takes Kol to her dead body and explains the situation and that she wants to stay, too. She traps him with a spell and tells him they can't always get what they want.
At the lake, Galen realizes Damon was stalling. He sees that Damon is infected with werewolf venom and realizes Connor's bullets must have been laced. He shoots Damon in the leg and then in the chest to make him give up Silas' real location.Alaric swoops in and breaks Galen's neck, tossing him over the edge into the lake. He grabs the cure before he tosses Galen over.
Alaric calls Stefan: Damon doesn't have long and they have to decide whether to force-feed Damon the cure. The gang is debating at graduation when witches paralyze them with a high pitched spell. Suddenly, one of the witches is decapitated. Klaus has returned and found a new use for a mortar board.
Back at the house, Damon is back in one piece, all healed. Elena slaps him.
She talks to Stefan alone. Lexie can't wait to see what happens. She hangs out with Alaric. She thinks there must be something better than where they are on the other side.
Elena thanks Stefan for not giving up on her. She gives him the cure. "The only person worse at being a vampire than me is you... You deserve whatever you want out of live, you deserve this," she says.
At the empty high school field, Caroline talks to Klaus. He was already on his way there having received her graduation announcement. He got her a graduation present: Tyler is free to return to Mystic Falls."He's your first love, I intend to be your last, however long it takes," he says, kissing her on the cheek.
Damon refuses to apologize to Elena for not taking the cure, or for not wanting to be without her. There's not an apology big enough to encompass all the reasons that he's wrong for her.
"Fine, then I'm not sorry either. I'm not sorry that I met you, I'm not sorry that knowing you has made me question everything, that in death you're the one who made me feel most alive. You've been a terrible person, you made all the wrong choices. And for all the choices I've made this will prove to be the worst one: but I am not sorry that I'm in love with you. I love you, Damon," she says.
He realizes what she's saying and kisses her.
Elsewhere in the house, Stefan listens in and reels. Lexie tries to comfort him.
Later, Stefan loads Silas' wrapped stone body into the trunk. They plan to dump him in the quarry. Damon tries to talk to him but can't think of what to say.Stefan tells him he's not happy about Elena, but "I'm not not happy for you, either."
Jeremy visits Bonnie in the cave to say good-bye. He left Elena a letter. Bonnie begins her spell.
At the house, Alaric sees the moon is full. "You got the girl, now don't screw it up," Alaric tells Damon. Then he disappears.
Stefan drives down the road with Lexie and tries to figure out where to move. She assures him there are multiple "ones" for vampires. Lexie disappears.
Elena goes looking for Bonnie and Jeremy but finds Kol instead. He attacks her and is about to chomp down when he disappears. And then Katherine shows up.
Back in the cave, Bonnie has nearly closed the veil. Jeremy tries to think of what to say to her, but kisses her instead. The spell ends. Jeremy gasps.Bonnie realizes her spell worked. Jeremy is alive.He can't feel her and realizes she's dead.
She asks him to tell Elena and Caroline that she's spending the summer with her mom. "For the first time in forever my friends are OK, I don't want to take that from them. I'm going to be OK, I promise," she says as she walks off with her Grams, hand in hand.
Rebekah shows up at Tyler's house to see Matt, giving him an out. He doesn't take it and agrees to go on the road with her.
Back at the high school, Katherine throws Elena around, saying Elena stole her happiness.
Elena starts fighting back, but Katherine gets the upperhand, throwing Elena into glass and breaking off a mop handle. She stabs Elena in the throat with it.
Elena flashes back to her conversation with Stefan, in which he told her everything he did to get her the cure was so she would have the choice whether or not to be a vampire.
On the floor of the high school, with Katherine on top of her, Elena takes out the cure, jams it in Katherine's mouth and forces her mouth shut. "Have a nice human life, Katherine," Elena says.
At the quarry, Stefan takes Silas' body out of the back of his car. Except he finds it's not Silas, it's a bag of stones. Silas appears to him as Elena. He explains that the spell that turned him to stone was unbroken when the witch who created it died. Worse, since he created the immortality spell nature needed a balance and created a shadow self. It looks like Stefan.Silas-as-Stefan stabs Stefan, tosses him in a safe and drops the safe into the depths of the quarry. Stefan sinks below the water inside, with no one to hear his screams.

The Walking Dead
Stefan tries to convince Elena to...
more
Stefan tries to convince Elena to give up her "unwavering hatred for a ruthless vampire who's 500 years old," but she's set on killing Katherine.
Everyone sends out graduation announcements, but Matt explains to Rebekah that he doesn't have any family to send them to. She's continuing to dote on him and he's thawing toward her.
Caroline also tries, unsuccessfully, to make Elena let her hatred of Katherine go.
Meanwhile, in the woods with Katherine, Bonnie works on drawing on the expression triangle of where the three massacres took place to lower the veil to reach Qetsiyah, using the power of the tombstone. Katherine gets impatient as she tries to understand how this leads to Bonnie making her immortal. Bonnie wants to ask Qetsiyah how to kill Silas.
Katherine tries to leave, but Bonnie linked them so that Silas couldn't get in Katherine's head. Where ever Bonnie goes, Katherine goes, and whatever happens to Katherine, happens to them both. If Silas finds out that Bonnie doesn't need a full moon to do the spell, it's all over.
Sheriff Forbes calls Damon and Stefan to the hospital. Five people have been almost completely drained of blood. They assume it's Silas, powering up before tomorrow night's full moon.
Bonnie takes Katherine down to the Lockwood cellar to draw on the power of the 12 dead hybrids.
At the Grill, Rebekah brings Elena a shot to check on her rage. She tells Rebekah their Thelma and Louise moment as pals has passed. Caroline is still hurt about the things Elena said to her when her humanity was off, but Elena won't apologize because if she does, she'll be overwhelmed with guilt, which she won't handle well.
Suddenly, the power goes out throughout the town as a Bonnie-related weather system blows through.
At the Young farm, Bonnie links the final massacre spot and is ready to drop the veil.
With the sheriff, Damon and Stefan realize what Bonnie's up to. Forbes got a tip that someone just saw Bonnie with Elena, but they know she's with Caroline, so it must be Katherine. They head to the center of the expression triangle -- the high school.
At the school, Damon tells Elena that Bonnie is with Katherine.
Stefan and Caroline investigate noises in the kitchen and notice water draining through the floor. "I think we're at the right place, just the wrong elevation," Stefan says.
Below, Katherine hands over the tombstone to Bonnie.
Damon tells Elena to stay put. He doesn't want her killing Katherine to flood her with emotions and foul up stopping Bonnie. Elena thinks killing Katherine will help her get over her emotional hurdle. She stakes Damon to go try.
In the cave under the high school, Bonnie channels the expression triangle, lowering the veil.
Damon comes to and takes the stake out of his gut. Alaric strolls up and lends a hand. Damon is wary that he might be Silas, Alaric proves he's himself by opening a locker with hidden booze. He's flesh and blood inside the expression triangle.
At the Grill, Rebekah is enjoying the candlelight time with Matt when her dead brother Kol shows up. He wants revenge for his death and since he can't kill dead Jeremy, he's after Elena. He throws a broken bottle into Matt's shoulder before he leaves.
In the cave, Katherine goes to investigate a noise and runs into Elena. Elena stakes her and burns her, but because they're linked, the same things happen to Bonnie.
Stefan and Caroline find Bonnie and she tells them to find Katherine. Stefan finds Elena moments before she can kill Katherine. He lets her go.
Alone at the Grill, Rebekah offers to heal Matt, but he doesn't want to risk turning into a vampire. She goes to find a first aid kit and instead finds Caroline under a spell to repeatedly cut herself. Caroline isn't at the high school.
With Bonnie, Caroline reveals herself to actually be Silas. He tells her he really can make her see whatever he wants. He poses as the monster, Stefan and Bonnie to taunt her for trying to betray him.
Stefan tries to convince Elena to allow herself to feel grief, but she just rages at him instead.
Matt calls Damon to warn him the real Caroline is with them and Kol is coming. She's hallucinating and thinks she has to keep cutting herself. Rebekah can't compel her because she's on vervane, so finally she slaps Caroline instead and breaks the spell.
Silas turns into Alaric and makes Bonnie gasp for air, trying to force her to drop the veil so he can take the cure and die.
Elena finds Jeremy's grave and breaks down in tears, saying she can't move on and can't handle him being gone. Kol finds her.
In the cave, Bonnie's Grams finds her and helps her break free of Silas' spell. She tells Bonnie she's strong enough to defeat Silas using expression.
Alaric (or Silas) finds Damon and tells him he called Stefan like he asked. Damon throws chains around his neck, knowing the real Alaric couldn't have made it from the school that fast. Bonnie finds them and begins working her magic. She drains Silas' blood and breaks his bones.
Back at Jeremy's grave, Kol beats the crap out of Elena and is about to kill her when Jeremy shoots a stake at him. Kol stops it and is ready to turn on Jeremy when Stefan runs in and breaks his neck. Elena throws her arms around Jeremy.
Damon, Stefan and Bonnie try to figure out what to do with Silas' stone body and decide to dump him in the ocean. Elena apologizes to Bonnie for how she acted with no emotions. Bonnie understands, knowing Elena wasn't herself. Jeremy hugs Bonnie and she promises to give them as much time as she can before she puts the veil back up.
Elena takes turns apologizing (wordlessly, by way of meaningful stares) to Stefan and Damon, but Damon tells her to take time to say good bye to Jeremy instead.
Stefan joins Caroline at the Grill, feeling morose. There was someone he thought he'd see today and he didn't. Then Lexie shows up to say hi.
Damon and real Alaric put stone Silas in the trunk and share a flask. Alaric gives Damon the cure he found on Silas."Get the girl," Alaric tells him.
Stefan and Lexi take a stroll and she teases him for replacing her with Caroline.
Back in the cave, Bonnie waits to replace the veil, wanting to bring Jeremy back first. Her Gram tries to tell her it's against nature and there's no magic strong enough, but she won't listen. Bonnie channels everything, but collapses.
Walking out of the Grill, Rebekah sees her dead ex-boyfriend Alexander, the vampire hunter. She turns to run, but is stopped by two other hunters, Connor and the guy from the island - all dead.
Bonnie comes to in the cave. She sees her Grams, who tells her the spell was too much. Bonnie turns around and sees her own body lying on the ground.
"Oh my god, I'm dead?" Bonnie says.

Elena comes to school, where Caroline is excited about graduating. Elena realizes something is off, they're in her head.They kept her weak to bring her to high school fantasy land. Elena says it won't work.
Back in the cellar, Damon lets Elena out of the safe just long enough for her to tell him off. He shoves her back in. Damon and Stefan aren't stopping until she turns her humanity switch on. "I'm going to come back for you in a couple hours, or a couple years, because all we have is time," Damon says.
Caroline comes to the house. Stefan explains they're just trying to provoke any emotion at all in her.
Caroline tries talking to her. When Stefan leaves her alone, Caroline give Elena a little blood. She doesn't agree with the boys' approach.
"This annoying clingy thing you're doing, did it ever occur to you that's why both your boyfriends skipped town?" Elena says, referring to Tyler and Klaus.
Elena plies on, mocking her enthusiasm for graduation and calling her vicious names. Elena goes after her again and Caroline snaps her neck. Caroline tells Stefan to do whatever he needs to fix her.
Matt talks to Rebekah at the bar. She's drowning her sorrows for losing the cure and breaking ties with Klaus and Elijah. She likes Elena the way she is. Matt suggests she leave town if she's so miserable, he's failing his classes and doesn't have much choice.
Caroline tries to get Bonnie to come to the Salvatore house, but Bonnie isn't ready to forgive and forget after Elena tried to kill her.
Bonnie meets secretly with Katherine, saying she has an offer she can't refuse.
Back at the Salvatore house, the boys put Elena in front of a curtain and take off her daylight ring. Damon is armed with a fire extinguisher.
"Even if I do manage to get my emotions back, I'll remember all this and I'll hate both of you for it," she says. Damon thinks it's worth the risk. They open the curtains and let the sun burn her.
Elena is unmoved, so they go for round two.
Caroline and Matt hang out outside. Rebekah drops by with food for Matt. She mentions that Matt is failing some classes. It's news to Caroline.
She goes home to get her flashcard, but runs into Klaus outside.
Bonnie asks Katherine for Silas' tombstone to drop the veil in two days on the full moon. "I said I'd help him and I've been hiding from him ever since, buying time," Bonnie says.
She won't explain since Silas can read minds. Bonnie's the only one who can see his true face.
Back at the house, Elena heals from her burns. Elena turns on Damon, saying being sired to him was awful and her love for him was fake.
Her ropes burn off and Elena runs to the curtain and tears it down. She bursts into flames and they douse her with the extinguisher.
"I'm the girl that you love, you wouldn't do anything to actually hurt me, you just proved that. So what do I have to be afraid of?" she asks.
Outside, Damon and Stefan are frustrated they're not getting anywhere. Stefan suggests they get someone who really will hurt Elena: Katherine.
She was just abandoned by Elijah and they think she'll enjoy the chance to torture Elena.
Caroline talks to Klaus just long enough to realize he's Silas. He grabs her by the neck and demands to know where Bonnie is. He stakes her, as a message to Bonnie.
Inside, Rebekah offers to compel Matt good grades and a scholarship. She's grateful he convinced her to save April's life at prom.Katherine interrupts their moment. Matt leaves to call Caroline to let her know.
Caroline wakes up in the woods -- the stake is gone. She races back to the house and runs into Matt, but it's just Matt again. He threatens to kill her mother unless she finds Bonnie. Caroline runs for the house, but Klaus as Silas stops her and throws her down the stairs. Caroline gets in her car and calls her mom, telling her to get inside and lock all the doors.
Downstairs, Katherine starts things off with Elena by digging her hand in her chest and squeezing her heart. Elena calls her a horrible person mocks her for Elijah leaving her. Katherine throws her back in the safe, but doesn't lock it.
Back upstairs, they discover Elena is missing. Damon takes Matt and goes to look for her.
Caroline goes home to her mom, calling her cell phone as she stands in front of her to verify it's her.
Elena wanders weakly through the woods. She flags down an SUV, Matt gets out. She vamps and is about to attack. He tries talking to her, saying she's his oldest friend and he's the girl he's loved longer than he can remember."Deep down, that probably does mean something, but I am really hungry," she says as she bites down on his neck.
Caroline waits for Bonnie's call. Bonnie shows up on her doorstep, but Caroline won't let her in. When Sheriff Forbes walks up behind Caroline, Bonnie sees that it's not really her. Bonnie breaks down the door and Caroline runs to check on her mom in the other room. She's lying on the floor. Caroline feeds her mom her blood.
Bonnie promises Silas she'll help him as long as he doesn't hurt any of her friends. He warns her her promise is binding.
In the woods, as Elena goes for seconds on Matt, Stefan pulls her off. Damon holds up a weak Matt and tells her he's done playing games, either she turns her emotions back on he'll kill Matt right in front of her. Stefan cautinons Damon to stop. Elena thinks he's bluffing.Damon snaps Matt's neck.
"How about now? You feel anything now?" Damon taunts her, asking if she feels sad or anything at all. Guess it's a good thing he was wearing Jeremy's protection ring. Matt's not dead.Damon asks her if she can feel the weight lifting, it's relief, her emotions coming back.
Elena's emotions come flooding back all at once and she's overwhelmed with guilt for killing the waitress. Stefan guides her to find the one thing inside that gives her hope and hold onto it. "I'm not OK, but I'll get better," she says.
Back home with her mom, Caroline draws her blood and injects it into her mom's heart, trying to bring her back. She cries over her mom's body.Finally, Sheriff Forbes takes a breath.
Matt comes back to life with a sore neck. Rebekah tells him it worked. He wanted to pay her back from saving him at the bottom of the river. Rebekah apologizes for the part she played in that and Elena becoming a vampire. She promises to spend every day until graduation trying to pay him back.
Katherine meets with Bonnie again, guessing that with Quetsia's blood in the tombstone, maybe she doesn't need the full moon to drop the veil. Once she does, Bonnie says she can use Quetsia's spell to make Katherine truly immortal. Katherine agrees to give her the tombstone.
Back at the house, Elena recovers from her emotional rollercoaster. Then she gets angry. The one thing she focused on was hating Katherine, the cause of all their problems and the one who killed Jeremy.Elena wants to kill her.

Stefan and Damon leave Elena to...
more
Stefan and Damon leave Elena to slowly desiccate in the dungeon, waiting for her to get desperate enough to beg for blood, showing feelings.Katherine saunters in with news that Hayley lured Klaus to New Orleans. She thinks he's out of their lives for good.
New OrleansHayley hangs out in a bar where Jane Anne tends bar. She knows Hayley is a werewolf and shows her where to look for her family. She also snags some Hayley's hair.
Jane Anne and her sister Sophie head to a graveyard with Hayley's hair to perform a spell to get Klaus. Sophie heads off for her part of the task.
Late at night, Hayley pulls up to the part of the bayou where Jane anne told her to go.As Jane Anne begins the spell in the graveyard, Hayley's map bursts into flames and her car dies. She calls for a tow service, but gets a splitting headache instead and is quickly surrounded by Sophie and witches in the woods. Hayley passes out.
Klaus shows up in New Orleans. Back in Mystic Falls, Rebekah hopes the witches can find a way to kill him. Elijah heads down, not sure if he'll help the witches kill Klaus or stop them.
Klaus sits down with a fortune teller in the French quarter, recognizing her as a true witch. She knows he's a hybrid. But she's not talking -- that would mean breaking Marcelle's rules.
Klaus finds Marcelle performing wicked karaoke in a nightclub. Marcelle remembers Klaus' father running Klaus out of town 100 years ago, leaving a trail of dead vampires in his wake. They stare each other down like enemies, but it's a front: they're old pals. Klaus sired Marcelle.
Marcelle says he has the witches in New Orleans wrapped around his finger. Marcelle leads him to Jane Anne through a parade of vampires galavanting around the Quarter. A vampire brings Jane Anne to Marcelle, bound. He accuses her of violating his rules for witchcraft, surrounded by a circle of vampires. She denies doing anything and calls him a monster.
He slits her throat to the cheers of the gathered vampires.
Klaus is angry because he wanted to talk to her. Marcelle promises to find out what she was up to.
Klaus asks Thierry if there are other Deveraux witches and then visits Sophie in her restaurant, wanting to know what's going on. Marcelle's vampires follow Klaus. Sophie refuses to talk to Klaus in front of them. Klaus tells them to quit following him.
Sophie goes outside to a shrine to her sister. Marcelle's vampires follow her and interrogate her, wanting to know what Sophie was up to. As she's talking to them, one disappears and only his heart is left behind. Someone swiftly stakes the other. It's Elijah.
Klaus wanders into a nightclub in the French Quarter and is surprised to see vampires feeding openly. He accosts a vampire, shouting for Marcelle.Marcelle tells him hurting his vampires is against his rules.
Marcelle explains what he's been up to. He says he's taught the humans to look the other way and has a way to know when witches are practicing magic. He takes vervane to build up his immunity. They see a bartender walking alone, Marcelle swoops down to eat her.
Elijah shows up and takes Klaus to the cemetery where Jane Anne was casting her spell. Sophie is waiting. She tells Klaus that Marcelle is out of control and she's going to stop him. "And you're going to help me," she says.He's not inclined to listen until they bring Hayley out.Sophie informs him Hayley is pregnant.
That's impossible for vampires, but he was born a werewolf, so it's "one of nature's loopholes."
Jane Anne sacrificed herself to perform the spell to confirm the baby is his, they now control Hayley. Unless he goes along with them, they threaten to kill her. They don't want to kill Marcelle outright; they have a plan for stopping him.
"Kill her and the baby, what do I care?" Klaus says, storming off.Elijah follows, telling him it's their chance to be a family again. He asks Klaus to stay and save his child. Klaus says no.
Elijah calls Rebekah, who doesn't think Klaus will come around. Katherine lurks and tells Rebekah that he will come around because he won't want to be alone.
Klaus goes back to Marcelle for answers on the witches, but he refuses. Marcelle's vampires stop and watch as Marcelle puts Klaus in his place, taking credit for making New Orleans what it is today and saying he runs things. He reminds Klaus that anyone who breaks the rules dies and he demands respect.
Klaus responds by attacking Thierry. He points out the vampire will be dead in the morning, meaning Klaus should be killed as punishment, but, he points out, he's immortal.
Klaus sees Cami, the bartender Marcelle went after, standing in the French Quarter watching a street artist paint. She says the artist is lost, alone and wishes he could control his demons instead of having his demons control him. What she says hits home for Klaus. He goes off alone.
Elijah finds him. Klaus is angry that Marcelle has power, loyalty and family -- all the things Klaus always wanted. "I want what he has, I want to be king," Klaus says."And what of Hayley and the baby?" Elijah asks"Every king needs an heir."
Sophie lays out the plan to Elijah: Klaus has to cement his place in Marcelle's inner circle of daywalkers.
Klaus shows up at Marcelle's, saying he's not his enemy. He gives Thierry his blood to heal him and tells Marcelle he'd like to stay.
Klaus calls Caroline and leaves her a message, telling her he'd like to share New Orleans with her.
Elijah goes back to Mystic Falls to convince Rebekah to move to New Orleans, presenting Klaus' baby as a chance to have the family she always wanted.Rebekah tells him she doesn't owe Klaus anything and wants to stay put.
Katherine then tries to convince Elijah to abandon Klaus and go with her. Instead, he kisses her good-bye.
Damon visits Elena in the dungeon. She's weak from hunger. He gives her a bag of blood, which she gulps down. It's laced with vervane. "How does that make you feel? Hurt, because I'd betray you? Angry, because I'd cause you pain? Or scared, because you know it's going to get a lot worse?" Damon says. "You boys want to play games, go ahead. Let's see you breaks first, me or you," Elena says.They lock her in.

At the Salvatores, it has been eight or nine days since Elena killed anyone. Plan A is to pull a Lexie and bombard Elena with emotions until one of them sticks, Plan B is to lock her up. Stefan plans to bail when she gets her humanity back.
Rebekah and Klaus try to convince Elijah why each of them are worthy of the cure. Rebekah argues that Klaus having it means Silas could break down the veil to the other side.

Caroline goes to Klaus, complaining about her stolen dress. She asks Klaus to raid his closet.
At prom, Caroline has made a photo memory book of the senior class, including pictures of Elena with Jeremy. Rather than being moved by them, she announces she's going to get a seizure if she keeps staring at the screens.
Damon smuggles a flask in and makes repeated references to Elena about being her boyfriend, but she calls him out for trying to stir up her emotions. She coldly tells him he means nothing to her.She unleashes similar nastiness on Bonnie and Matt when they check on her."I thought you were going to bring Jeremy back, but it turns out you were just a brain-washed crazy person, so technically, you're a walking reminder of all the horrible things that have happened to me," Elena tells Bonnie."Caroline's right, Elena's gone," Bonnie announces.
Bonnie goes for air outside and sees a photo of her with Jeremy. Then she sees Jeremy. She doesn't care if it's real and goes to dance with him.

Rebekah tries to convince April Young to anoint her prom queen. Elena swoops in and threatens April unless she rigs it. Rebekah insists she wasn't going to use violence."Remember the time you tortured me until I told you how to find the cure, you ruined my relationship with Stefan and then you trapped us with a werewolf?" Elena asks."Yea, so?""So you're not a good person, you're not going to win this cure by being yourself. So just stand there and refrain from talking, OK?"
Outside, Bonnie dances with Jeremy in the woods. He tells her her magic can bring her back for good, she has the power to do the spell now. She realizes she's dancing with Silas. He warns her if he doesn't help her, she'll kill herself, and asks about her waking up in flames.

more
Elena pulls over her stolen Porsche in their third city in their Katherine search. Elena announces she's hungry and goes to feed on a woman on the street.
"Katherine, what are you doing?" the woman asks. She asked her to feed from her wrist, not her neck.
"Conniving little bitch compelled the whole town," Rebekah announces.They found Katherine's hideout.
The woman doesn't recognize Katherine's name when Rebekah says it. She compelled people to forget about her unless they were talking to her.
"You said we could all be friends with you, as long as we kept your secret," the woman says, but she doesn't know what it is.
Stefan and Damon collect Damon's abandoned car on the road. Sheriff Forbes has tracked the girls' stolen car to Willoughby, Penn.Damon is ready for the old Elena back. "Elena without humanity is a stone cold bitch," he says.
Back home, Klaus tries to get the stake tip out of his back. Caroline arrives -- but she's Silas."Until you bring me the cure I will bring you nothing but misery," s/he says.
Elena checks on her mail and the mailman says he saw her two minutes ago. Katherine jumps Elena in the parking lot and Rebekah pulls her off.
They sit down for coffee in a diner, Rebekah keeps Katherine in place by jamming a fork through her hand. She's on vervane so Rebekah can't compel her to cough up the cure's location. She says she plans to give it to Klaus so he'll stop chasing her."You poor victim, where the part in your plan where you screw us over and somebody dies?" Elena asks.
They check her phone and find an appointment to meet "em" at two.
Caroline shows up at Klaus' house. He thinks she's Silas, but she mentions prom and he believes it's her. He points out if she dies, they all die, too. He wants her to cut the stake out.
In Willoughby, the boys find the stolen car. Damon doesn't understand what Katherine is doing in the hick town. Stefan questions how they're supposed to go up against Rebekah the original as bodyguard. Damon is more determined than ever to get the old Elena back after having his neck snapped.
Elena tries to dress up at Katherine, doing her hair and demanding all her jewelry, her jacket and her shoes.
Elena as Katherine, waits to meet with "em."
The boys find Rebekah and Katherine in the diner.
"EM" shows up for his meeting with Katherine -- it's Elijah. He kisses her hello and asks if she has the cure with her. He sees her daylight ring and the jig is up -- he knows she's Elena.
At the diner, Katherine tells them who "EM" is and Rebekah tells them where she is. They realize she plans to use Elijah to broker her deal with Klaus.
Back in Mystic Falls, Caroline digs around in Klaus' back with a knife, trying to find the white oak stake tip. She jabs the knife around and hurts him then apologizes. She realizes what she's doing and takes it back then offers a bargain -- she'll help him if he allows Tyler to come back to town and promises not to hurt him.
Stefan calls Elijah from Katherine's phone. They trade threats. Elena tells him he's an idiot to fall for Katherine and believe her. He can tell her humanity is off."My brother's dead, your girlfriend killed him," she says.He realizes Katherine lied to him.
Katherine leads Damon and Rebekah to her place and says the cure isn't where she left it. They're not buying it. Damon looks around the tries to figure where she hid it. He tries the fish tank with no fish in it and finds it full of vervane water.
She dunks his head in it and grabs it. Rebekah returns and stops her. Katherine tosses it and makes a break for it. Rebekah goes for the cure.
Damon is too wounded from his vervane dunking to stop her. She thinks he doesn't really want Elena to take the cure and go running back to Stefan. Stefan appears in the doorway just in time to see her down it. She collapses on the couch.
Back in Mystic Falls, Caroline waits out Klaus's screaming, trying to make him agree to release Tyler. They end up screaming at each other, with Caroline saying she should have turned her back on him ages ago.
Suddenly, Klaus realizes the pain is gone. It was never there, Silas was in his head. Caroline took his mind off it. "You brought me back, Caroline," he says."If Silas can make you, of all people, believe that you're dying, what can he do to the rest of us?" Caroline wonders.
Back in Willoughby, Stefan yells at Damon, thinking that he let Rebekah take the cure on purpose.Rebekah wakes up.
Elijah offers his condolences to Elena for Jeremy's death. She can't believe he thinks that the Katherine he used to love is still in there somewhere.
"You boys are all the same. Damon and Stefan still think the girl they love is somewhere in here, too," she says.
"You can't blame them for having hope, Elena. It'd be a shame if the world lost a soul as compassionate as yours," Elijah says.
She remembers what he wrote to her once about her compassion being a gift, but it felt good to watch that letter burn, along with her old life and Jeremy's body.Suddenly, Katherine appears and snaps Elena's neck.
Rebekah wakes up feeling human. Damon points out it means he can kill her now and flings a letter opener at her head. Rebekah catches it instinctively with vampire speed. They watch as the cut on her hand heals quickly. She's still a vampire, the cure was a fake.
With Katherine, Elijah brings up the fact that she killed Jeremy. She says it was necessary. She tells Elijah she loves him, but he doesn't believe her.
He walks away, and with it her chance of a deal with Klaus.
Katherine shows up on the doorstep of the woman from the street. She came to retrieve her secret package; the cure.
Katherine stops Elijah on the street. She tells him he's right, that she's been on the run so long she's starting to believe her own lies. "I don't even remember who I was when we first met and I want to find out," she says.
She shows Elijah the cure, saying she could give it to Klaus and kill him, but she knows she'd lose Elijah and she doesn't want that.She gives him the cure, hoping he'll trust her, then lets him decide what comes next. She walks away.
Rebekah finds her brother and asks for the cure. She wants to live a simple life as a normal person. "You will always be my brother and I will never stop loving you, but now it's time for me to live and die the way that I choose, and not the way that you and Nic want me to. Please just give me the cure," Rebekah says.
Klaus calls her and she hands the phone to Elijah. He tells Klaus he's bringing the cure back to Mystic Falls, they'll settle it like family.
Klaus asks Caroline if they can be friends. She asks about Tyler. "You might have noticed I'm not exactly scouring the earth for him, am I?" Klaus says.
Damon admits to Stefan that he let Rebekah take the cure, but then immediately realized it was a mistake. "I had a moment of weakness, Stefan -- it's my thing. Like you and I falling for the same girl -- it's our thing," Damon says.
Stefan says them both loving Elena is like them both liking Katherine, they just keep repeating the same cycle. Once they get the cure for Elena, Stefan plans to go get a life of his own.
They find Elena back at the diner. She tells them she doesn't want to take the cure and wants them to accept it, or there will be consequences.Stefan reminds her about her rescuing him from the brink when his emotions were off.
The waitress comes to refill Elena's coffee and she rises up and snaps her neck, killing her -- the first consequence. She warns them if they keep at it, there will be more.

Because the Night
A young man and woman walk down an...
more
A young man and woman walk down an NYC street after dark and sees a body lying motionless on the sidewalk. In a blink, the body is gone and has been replaced by the young woman. Her boyfriend panics as Damon approaches -- and with good reason. Damon chomps on the man's neck. It's 1977.
Fast forward to present day. Elena and Damon stroll down the bustling streets. "There's so much life that a little death goes unnoticed," Damon says. Stefan calls and, with Elena out exploring, Damon explains that he organized this little field trip to hunt down a lead in the search for the cure. Meanwhile, Caroline is cleaning up after a big party... and downing half empty plastic cops as she goes. Klaus enters and Caroline isn't happy. "Tyler made it his life's mission to kill me -- you can't hate me for driving him away," he says. Stefan enters, explaining he wants Klaus's help to track down Silas.
Bonnie is speaking with Silas, who looks a lot like Shane, and imagines the entire scene is in her head. Silas assures the witch that it is not -- and tells her to complete the Triangle by killing 12 people. "Twelve people you can bring back," he continues. "Bonnie, you can do this -- for Jeremy." Later, Stefan explains to Klaus that Silas must be stopped from completing the final of three massacres lest all dead supernatural beings come back, including many that Klaus personally dispatched. "My interest is piqued," growls Klaus.
We then flashback once again to Damon in 1970s New York City. He is in an underground club and spots a potential victim. Before he can feed on the punk, Lexi interrupts him. "You're going to feed on him right here?" Lexi asks. "You're getting sloppy." Back in the present day, Rebekah interrupts Damon's trip down memory lane by slamming his head onto bar table and smiling at Elena. It is revealed that Damon is looking for the cure, making Elena angry. Later, she confides in Rebekah that she knew all along that Damon is searching for the cure, and she is tagging along in hopes of finding it first to avoid taking it. "He's playing me, I'm just returning the favor," Elena says.
Caroline, Stefan, and Klaus head to Shane's old lab to try to find a lead that will take them to Silas. Caroline finds an old book that depicts the Expression Triangle. Silas, in the meantime, has convinced Bonnie to kill the 12 witches. When Bonnie's dad comes home, the witch shows her frustration by blowing out the windows and sending flames shooting out of the fireplace. "I need you to call mom," Bonnie tells her dad. "We need witches. A lot of them."
Back in NYC, Damon explains to Elena and Rebekah that Lexi believed that Damon could turn his emotions back on if he started enjoying his life again. His music playing and people dancing, Elena begins to feed on a young woman in the crowd, allowing Damon to sneak out of the club. Back at Shane's lab, Caroline uses the book to map out a triangle of massacres, revealing two points where the final one could take place. Stefan, meanwhile, talks to Bonnie's dad and figures out exactly where the trio needs to head.
Damon enters his buddy's apartment and begins searching files on all runners. Unfortunately, the files are organized by birth date and he can't remember when Katherine came into the world. Stefan calls and provides a date in the 15th century. "And that's why you were the better boyfriend," Damon quips. Sure enough, he finds a file with all last known addresses, including a pair in the last few months. It's a hot lead. Back in the 70s, we see Damon and Lexi getting drunk. Lexi brings up Katherine because she knows Damon loves her -- and love is the strongest of all emotions. "Let me help you," she says. "Tell me about Katherine." Damon claims that he actually loves Lexi. The two kiss. In the present day, Damon tells Elena the story. She grabs a bottle and invites him to the roof so he can finish his story. On the way, Elena winks at Rebekah.
Bonnie lies on the ground screaming. She is surrounded by witches, who believe they are there to help the girl. Stefan soon steps in and stops the ceremony. "She's working for Silas!" he warns. "He brainwashed her to kill you." The head witch decides to kill Bonnie, but is stopped at the last minute by Caroline. Caroline kills the head witch and -- because the woman is connected to the 11 witches surrounding her -- the third massacre has now happened. "The Triangle is complete," gasps Bonnie. Stefan and Klaus are horrified.
On the roof, Elena puts the moves on Damon. The two kiss, mirroring the Lexi-Damon make-out session. Elena tries to sneak her hand into Damon's pocket to remove the file containing Katherine's addresses -- and he pushes her away. "Did you really think that was going to work?" Damon asks. "I invented that trick." Flashback to the 70s, where we find out that Damon faked turning his humanity back on just to get Lexi isolated on the roof when the sun came up. He just wanted to get Lexi off his back. In the present day, Damon warns Elena that she might do something in her current state that she can't take back -- like he did. Suddenly, Rebekah appears and knocks Damon to the ground.
The next morning, Bonnie awakens and doesn't remember a thing about the previous night. Worse, she doesn't remember a thing past the moment when Jeremy was trying to take the cure from Silas. "I have something that you need to know about Jeremy," Stefan says sadly. Caroline, in the meantime, is feeling mighty guilty about murdering the 12 witches -- and possibly allowing Silas to unleash what Klaus calls "Hell on Earth." She runs away in tears, leaving Klaus alone in the woods. Moments later, Silas appears.
Damon swims out of unconsciousness on the rooftop -- same place he once left Lexi -- and gets a call from Elena. She has teamed up with Rebekah to find Katherine. They have taken the file. As the episode ends, Silas stabs Klaus with a stake. "Just a little something to remember me by," Silas says. "I'll be in touch."

At the Salvatores', Stefan worries about her.
A car rolls to a stop in the road in front of Elena.
Stefan thinks they need to give Elena a reason to turn her humanity back on, a good reason so she's not overwhelmed with grief.
A woman gets out of the car and checks on Elena, who goes full vamp on her and bites down. Damon makes her stop before she goes too far."I thought this was supposed to be fun," Elena pouts.

Stefan plans to take Elena back to school as a distraction while Damon goes after Katherine. Caroline is over at the boys' house because their water filters are the only ones that keep the mayor's vervane-laced water out. Caroline mentions her mom needs help, so Stefan agrees.

Sheriff Forbes updates Stefan: the hospital's entire blood supply is gone. She thinks the town's at a tipping point. She asks him who would be so careless to steal the whole supply.
At a cheerleading competition, Elena sees a competitor leave to get her make-up bag off the bus. Elena follows her and attacks her on the bus, stealing her hair ribbon in the process.
Caroline figures things out when Elena shows up with the other team's ribbon in her hair and her victim has a scarf around her neck. Caroline tells Stefan the sire bond directions didn't work.
Stefan calls Damon explaining that because the sire bond was tied to her emotional attachment to him, and she has no emotions, the sire bond isn't in effect.
At the truck stop looking for the wounded vampire, Damon runs into Rebekah instead. She's looking for Katherine, too. She brought Klaus' blood to convince the wounded vampire to talk, knowing it's the only thing that'll save him.
Klaus hosts Hayley. She met Katherine in New Orleans when she was looking for her real parents and Katherine offered to help her.
"An orphan? Well that does explain your charming bravado, abandonment issues will do it every time," Klaus says.
Stefan asks Elena if she stole the town's blood. She says she prefers something warmer. He cautions her against falling into the ripper trap.
Caroline tells Elena she can't perform, but Elena ignores her.
The Lady Timberwolves perform and mid-routine, Elena steps away during a lift and lets Caroline fall to the mat.
Later outside, Stefan injects Elena with vervane and knocks her out.

At Klaus' house, Hayley continues to stall on providing information about Katherine to Klaus. She makes a pitch to him to let Tyler go free, but he's not inclined.
Back at the Salvatore's house, Elena changes in front of Stefan. He compares her using sex to Katherine's tactics. She's cold about their past history together. She won't stop texting so he grabs her phone. They head downstairs to find the house full of people from the cheer competition. She was texting to bring the party to her.
Caroline shows up. They can't compel the partiers to leave since the locals are all on vervane from the town water supply. Elena is dancing on a table top, having a blast. Caroline urges Stefan to join in, so he hoists her over his shoulder and takes her to the dance floor.
Damon feeds on a nurse then compels her to walk to her car. He explains to Rebekah that the nurse is bait for the wounded, starving vampire.
Damon finds the vampire. He knows him. His name is Will. Damon rips his heart out quickly, telling Rebekah he was too far gone.
Back at Klaus', Hayley flirts with him. He goes for it.
At the Salvatores', Elena's pouring booze for everyone. She sees Stefan and Caroline dancing and suggests Caroline "take him out for a spin."
Sheriff Forbes shows up and asks what's going on."Just some underage drinking and drug use," Elena says.
Sheriff Forbes goes to shut the party down and Elena is about to attack her. Caroline swoops in to save her mom. She's furious with Elena, but Elena takes off.
Stefan and Caroline search the woods for Elena. Stefan realizes the party was a distraction for Elena to escape. He tells Caroline to snap Elena's neck if she finds her.
Damon returns to the party in full swing at his house. Rebekah follows him and accuses him of killing Will to prevent her from finding Katherine and taking the cure. He questions what she'd get out of becoming human, equating it with mediocrity. Damon gets a text that Elena is loose.
Caroline calls out to Elena in the woods. Elena jumps her and fights with her. Caroline yells at her to stop, saying she hurt her mom. Elena urges Caroline to try turning her humanity off, saying it might make her quit whining about Tyler leaving her and keep her from feeling guilty about her dirty thoughts about Klaus.
They start fighting again and Elena skewers Caroline with a tree branch. Elena about to stab her again when Damon and Stefan show up and tear Elena off.
Back at the Salvatores', Caroline leaves Tyler another voice mail about her crazy day. She gets a text from Matt to meet at Tyler's.
Stefan tries to console Caroline about Elena. They vow not to give up on her.
Damon keeps Elena on lockdown in his room as he goes through old photos. He finds one of him with Will. Elena assures Damon she feels great without emotions."Be honest, you like me better like this," she says.
Caroline shows up at Tyler's but can't get in until Matt invites her. He got a package from Tyler including a letter for her. Tyler writes that the only way they can be safe from Klaus is if he never comes home. He gave Matt the deed to the house to protect her. He says he'll always love her and she realizes he's not coming back.
As Hayley gets dressed after rolling around with Klaus, he sees a crescent moon mark on her shoulder. He recognizes it as belonging to a werewolf bloodline that lived in old Louisiana. He assures her he's not toying with her.
Sheriff Forbes calls Stefan, saying they have a bigger problem.
Stefan calls Damon: six other hospitals' blood supply is missing. He thinks Silas followed them home and is hoarding to gorge.
"I'm really not in the mood to Scooby Doo our way through the case of the missing blood supply. So why don't you hold down the fort until I get back and I'll be in touch, brother?" Damon says. He hangs up on Stefan and we see he's driving down the road with Elena.
Damon checks his picture with Will. They're on their way to New York.

more
Back in the cave, Elena runs to Jeremy, who is dead on the ground. She waits for the ring to bring him back. Stefan and Damon don't know where Bonnie is. Stefan mentions to Damon that because Jeremy was one of the five, he's supernatural and the ring won't work anymore."She won't survive this. I'll find Bonnie, you get Elena off this island," Damon says.
In Mystic Falls, Caroline tries to get Kol's burn mark out of the Gilbert kitchen floor. Stefan comes in carrying Jeremy's still lifeless body. Elena keeps waiting for the ring to work.
On the island, Damon looks for Bonnie and something triggers his spidey sense. Rebekah finds him and Damon catches her up, including that they have to be on the lookout for Silas.
Bonnie wakes up in the forest. Shane says he treated her with woodland herbs. Silas healed his broken leg. He's excited for Silas to bring back the dead he lost. He explains to Bonnie that Jeremy is now among them.
At the Gilbert house, Caroline, too, understands that Jeremy isn't waking up. They think Elena's in denial. She comes downstairs and says she's not. She thinks that because his tattoo is gone, maybe he's not supernatural anymore and so the ring will work. She's clinging to hope.
Caroline leaves Tyler a message. Stefan thinks Katherine stole the cure to bargain for her freedom from Klaus. Suddenly, both Caroline and Stefan can smell Jeremy's body starting to decompose.
On the island, Damon uses Rebekah as a shield to stop an arrow from Galen, another hunter. Damon catches up to him and knocks him out.
Bonnie has a hard time keeping it together, but Shane says Silas needs her and he'll bring Jeremy back.
Meredith Fell checks on Jeremy in the Gilbert house. She gently tells Elena that he's past rigor mortis and soon his body will start to bloat. She wants to take him to a funeral home. Elena lashes out at her, crying for someone to get her Bonnie.
Matt shows up and Elena keeps her happy face.
Matt asks her to go somewhere with her.
On the island, Damon holds a knife to Galen's throat, demanding info on Katherine. He says he found her in Colorado. She knew about Silas from Hayley, the werewolf, whom she met in New Orleans. Damon wants to find Bonnie for Elena, but Rebekah is set on finding the cure.
In the woods, Shane explains to Bonnie that Silas lost the ability to do magic when he became immortal, so he'll need Bonnie to do his work for him, using the power of three massacres of 12. But they only have two massacres, so Shane says first they have to complete another.Bonnie objects, but Shane sticks with his "they'll come back" line of reasoning. Bonnie runs away and trips over a vision of Jeremy, who asks her to help him.She tells Shane she'll do whatever it takes.
Damon calls Stefan with no news. Stefan thinks Damon needs to come back because the sire bond will keep Elena together; Stefan will go back to find Bonnie. Damon agrees and hangs up.Then Bonnie walks out of the woods. Shane showed her how to find Damon."I know what to do to bring Jeremy back," she says.
In Mystic Falls, Matt takes Elena to the stoner pit to see graffiti of his sister Vicki's name. There's also a J+V that Jeremy painted. Matt tells her that it's OK to have hope.Stefan calls to say Damon is on the way with Bonnie.
Back in the cave, Galen recommends Rebekah use the cure to kill Silas. Galen has Silas's mask in his bag."How do you hide from the devil when you don't know what he looks like?" Galen says.
Caroline leaves Tyler another message. Bonnie and Damon show up. Damon and Stefan conference outside.Inside, Bonnie explains the "expression triangle" that requires 12 more deaths.
Flash back to the island, Shane explaining to Bonnie that Quetsiyah her ancestor witch created a purgatory for supernatural beings and Bonnie can make it go away. He seems to have a sort of thrall over Bonnie.
Damon tells Stefan he thinks Bonnie's nuts. If she drops the veil between purgatory, all supernatural beings come back.
Caroline tells Bonnie she sounds crazy and they can't bring every monster back. April Young calls, looking for Jeremy. At first Elena says he can't come to the phone, then she announces that he's dead.
Elena goes back upstairs to Jeremy's body. He's ashen and looks like death.
Elena starts to freak out, realizing he's really dead. She can smell him. She asks Damon to carry him downstairs. Matt has taken Bonnie home.
Elena goes downstairs and takes out lighter fluid, going a little batty, saying they need a cover story. She douses the house, saying she doesn't want to be there anymore."Every inch of this house is filled with memories of people that I loved who have died, my mom, my dad, Jeremy and Jenna and Alaric, even John. They're all dead, everyone is dead," Elena says.She's near hyperventilating. She collapses in tears sobbing.Stefan tells Damon to help her.He takes Elena in his arms and asks her to let him help her.
Damon tells her to turn it off, saying it's what he wants. Not what Stefan had in mind. Elena pauses for a moment and is calm.
Back home, Caroline leaves Tyler a message saying that Jeremy is dead. She begs him to call.
Matt takes Bonnie home. She assures him it'll be Ok, she'll bring Jeremy back.
Shane is waiting for Bonnie. She asks the particulars of who comes back and he says the 12 on the farm were a necessary sacrifice and have passed on. "We'll do this together, you and I. We are the beginning," Shane says in a super creepy way.
Back on the island, Rebekah pokes around alone in the dark. She finds a body in the woods, it's Shane, with his leg still broken. She keeps walking, but he grabs her. "Silas," he says.
Matt drives home, wracked with grief at the unfairness of it all.
Back home, Elena looks at the photo of her and Jeremy, but is unmoved.
Outside, Stefan tells Damon that having Elena turn off her humanity was a mistake."Humanity means nothing when you don't have anyone left to care about, Stefan," Damon says."She had you," Stefan says."She lost her brother. I'm not enough, not this time," Damon says.
The Salvatore brothers make up.
Inside, Elena lights another match. Damon tells her they can find another cover story. Stefan says she might want to come home again someday."I won't," Elena says as she drops the match.

Down the Rabbit Hole
In the woods, one of the five hunters...
more
In the woods, one of the five hunters has Damon tied to a tree. He knows all about the crew from Mystic Falls and what they're up to. His mark completed two days ago for no apparent reason, when they killed Kol.He doesn't appreciate Damon's glib approach, so he sticks a metal rod in Damon's neck. His name is Galen.
Elena calls Caroline to update her on Shane's shenanigans and Damon's disappearance. Elena wants help translating Jeremy's tattoos and wants her to get the sword from Klaus. Caroline goes to look for it.
Shane takes Jeremy, Bonnie and Massak the witch to the cave where Silas is. Massak bails, demanding his payment from Shane -- the tombstone, which is valuable in witch circles.
Caroline and Tyler come back to the Gilbert's house to show Klaus they've found his sword. They're working on decoding the cryptex in the handle. Klaus says it's in Aramaic, which could take days or week to translate. Turns out, he speaks Aramaic.
Back on the island, Elena is surprised that Stefan didn't tell her he wanted to take the cure.
Galen leads Damon through the woods, bound by vervane-soaked ropes to hold him. Galen's planning to use Damon as leverage to make Bonnie open the crypt so he can get to Silas and kill him. Damon tries to explain Bonnie's going to open it anyway to get the cure.
Caroline and Tyler use the internet to try to translate Jeremy's tattoo, but get nowhere. Klaus helps, saying they need a witch and a "hunter in full bloom." He translates the cryptex: "Silas rests on the far side, the means of his destruction at hand."
Klaus sees something in the cryptex and tells Caroline how to open a secret compartment.
Meanwhile, Galen explains to Damon that he needs to use the cure to kill Silas.
Klaus and Galen explain: There is only one dose.
Back in the cave, Bonnie slowly lowers down to join Jeremy. She falls and cuts her hand, bleeding on the stone floor.
With Shane out of earshot, Bonnie promises Jeremy she won't let Shane raise Silas, even if it means killing Shane herself.
Her blood seeps down to the crypt.
Caroline sends Rebekah their translation. Rebekah can't believe Klaus helped. He tells her he hopes she gets her wish to be human then, before Caroline can hang up, he tells her there's only one dose.
Damon asks Galen why he saved Jeremy, but Galen denies throwing the mystery hatchet. They come upon a dead body in the woods. (Could be Massak the witch, hard to tell.)
Down at the bottom of the cave, Shane leads Bonnie to the door she needs to open, after reminding her that if anything happens to him, something worse will happen to her.
Rebekah doesn't tell Elena and Stefan about the one dose. They come to a cliff above a pond, hundreds of feet up. Elena jumps first, then when she's alone with Stefan, Rebekah tells Stefan about the one dose.
Shane supervises as Bonnie draws the power of Jeremy's mark, removing it from his skin. In the woods, Galen sees his tattoo disappear as well.
The walls start to crumble at the bottom of the well. Rebekah guesses that Stefan would give the cure to Elena. "I'm sorry it couldn't work out the way we all wanted it to," she says.
Then she breaks his neck. Elena is hundreds of feed below and helpless.
In the cave, Bonnie has opened the way to Silas' crypt. She and Jeremy are unhurt by the falling rocks, but Shane's leg is broken. Bonnie leaves him.
In another part of the cave, Galen realizes that if Bonnie already performed the spell to open the way to crypt, he has no need for Damon. He frees him to kill him, but Rebekah finds them.
Elena rejoins Stefan, alive again, at the top of the cliff. She doesn't feel like she can take the cure for herself. "Even if I could be human again, I wouldn't be the person that I was," she says.
They'll just have to figure out a way to break her sire bond to Damon when they get home.Elena realizes what's waiting for them at home: a trapped Klaus who isn't going to stay trapped much longer. They have to get the cure to him so they can kill him before he kills them all.
Back in Mystic Falls, Tyler freaks out over the idea that Klaus will try to kill him with the first chance he gets. Caroline tries to calm him down and assures him she'll handle it.
Back with Galen, Rebekah tries to take him on, but first he shoots her with wooden bullets, then he sticks her with a wooden spike grenade that blasts through her.
Damon attacks him, but Galen shoots something that wraps him to a post. Stefan and Elena arrive and Galen jumps down a hole.
Stefan tells Elena to go ahead while he tries to free Damon.
Down in the tunnel, Bonnie sees her Grams, who tells her Silas can bring her back to life. "All you have to do is reach him and feed him," Grams says.
Bonnie starts to walk blindly through the cave, but Jeremy stops her. He points out if her Grams was really there as a ghost, he'd be able to see her, too. It's a hallucination planted by Silas. They realize that's how Shane was tricked, too.Jeremy tells her to block Silas out and just focus on him.
Back in Mystic Falls, Caroline makes the case to Klaus to spare Tyler. Klaus guesses correctly that Caroline doesn't want the cure, she prefers being a vampire. He thinks they're the same, so she suggests he prove it by showing compassion and mercy in sparing Tyler. He agrees to let Tyler leave town -- but then says it's only a head start before he kills him.
Back in the cave, Stefan unbinds Damon, who is weak. He tells Stefan to go ahead and help Elena get the cure for herself because it's what she wants. Stefan leaves him.
Alone in the cave, Elena hears noises and comes face to face with...someone she's not happy to see.
In Mystic Falls, Caroline gets choked up saying good-bye again to Tyler. He assures her he'll see her again, but she tells him to try to live a happy life without her. They kiss good-bye.
Stefan finds Shane and his broken leg. Shane didn't know about there only being one dose. Stefan leaves him.Shane sees his dead wife Caitlin again. She assures him everything will be fine.
Bonnie and Jeremy reach Silas's tomb. Jeremy sees a small box in Silas's mummified hands and realizes it couldn't possibly cure every vampire. Silas's arms are fossilized around the box. Bonnie realizes that to get it out, they have to feed him their blood and wake him up.
Back in the upper part of the cave, Damon pulls the wooden spikes out of Rebekah to revive her. He says he made peace with the idea he can't control everything and let Elena go for the cure.
"You did something selfless, Damon. If I didn't know better, I'd say you were becoming a halfway decent person," she says.
Back with Silas, Bonnie is telling Jeremy they'll find a way to the cure without raising Silas, when suddenly she's stabbed from behind -- by Galen. He tells Jeremy they have to raise Silas. Galen slices his hand and starts to bleed on Silas. Jeremy attacks him. They fight over what to do with the cure until Galen gets the upper hand.
Galen is about to off Jeremy when Elena runs out and grabs Galen. She's ready to end him, but Jeremy reminds her about the hunter's curse, so she knocks him out instead.
Back in Mystic Falls, Klaus walks out of the Gilbert's house. He assumes something happened to Bonnie. He tells Caroline he showed knidness, forgiveness and pity because of her. She's unmoved.
He leaves.
Stefan sees a trail of blood down in the cave and finds Elena, bleeding. "She's here," Elena says.
Back with Silas, Katherine (not Elena) stalls when Jeremy asks her to feed Bonnie to save her. Instead, she gets fed up, cuts him and feeds his wrist to Silas. But Silas wants more, and chomps down on his neck. Katherine takes the cure and runs as Silas drains Jeremy and tosses him aside, not breathing. Dead?

Into the Wild
One Year AgoProfessor Shane runs...
more
One Year AgoProfessor Shane runs through the woods, chased by a tribal looking man with face paint. Shane reaches a rocky cliff face and goes inside. He finds ancient writing on the walls and a deep, dark pit.
Back in the present, the Silas-seeking party disembarks: Shane, Jeremy, Stefan, Damon, Elena, Rebekah and Bonnie. They're 200 miles off the Nova Scotia mainland.
Shane tries to convince Rebekah to play nice with Elena, who responds by charging her and trying to stake her. Damon assures Elena that Stefan only brought Rebekah to show Elena he's moving on and to show Damon that he can't get under his skin.
Damon's not ready to talk to Elena about what he might do when they find the cure.
Bonnie takes photos of Jeremy's tattoos, which tell the story of Silas and the witch Qetsiyah, who was in love with him. She made him immortal, but he used it on another woman. Qetsiyah freaked out and murdered the other woman when she found out, then banished Silas to a hole in the ground.
She also made a cure for immortality and buried it in the ground, hoping Silas would take it and die. But he didn't, just to spite her, so centuries later her descendants created the hunters to find him, cure him and kill him.The group sets out on their hike.
Back in Mystic Falls, Tyler stops by the Gilbert house to taunt trapped Klaus. Tyler thinks curing him will break his sire line. Tyler's looking forward to killing Klaus.Klaus taunts him by suggesting drowning, the way he killed Tyler's mom.
Shane explains that centuries after Qetsiyah died, miners digging in the area went crazy. They saw visions of their loved ones. Shane believes it was magic.
His wife and child died within months of each other, so he tried the well, cutting his hand to bleed into it. He heard his wife Caitlin call to him and lowered himself down into the dark, scary rock pit. He heard voices all around him and freaked out and fell. At the bottom of the well, he saw his wife.
As they trek through the woods at night, Shane tells everyone to stop. He triggers a "Return of the Jedi"-style booby trap and tells them to stick together.
Jeremy pauses for a drink of water and from in the woods, a man draws back a bow aimed at Jeremy. Before he can react, the man falls dead from a hatchet thrown in his back. He doesn't know who threw it.
Shane takes them to a place where, legend has it, a group of college kids were all drained of blood on spring break. Damon argues to keep going.
"I'm shocked you even want the cure since you've got the most to lose once Elena's human," Shane tells him.
Elena assures Damon that Shane doesn't know what he's talking about. She says her feelings for him won't change after she takes it.
Caroline joins Tyler as he gloats over Klaus. Caroline gets to work cleaning up charred Kol. Klaus suggests that because they killed Kol and he killed Carol; they're even. Caroline gets worked up reciting all his other misdeeds, including killing Jenna.
But she gets too close to the field trapping Klaus and he skewers her with a curtain rod, yanks her into his force field and chomps on her neck.
Around a campfire, Rebekah asks Stefan if he's still planning to take the cure to get back with Elena. She would give anything to be a normal human."If I take the cure it wouldn't be for her; it would be for me," Stefan says.
After studying Jeremy's tattoos, Bonnie comes to Shane because she doesn't see a spell in them. He assures her he'll help her access expression when she needs to and reminds her she needs him to help her stay in control of it.
He reveals that his wife was a powerful witch who tried to raise their son after he was killed in a car accident. She died trying to use expression.
"You taught me the same magic that killed your wife!" Bonnie says."Yea, but look, the upside is: I've learned the warning signs. I can keep expression from consuming you," Shane says."The downside is you turned her into a bomb that only you can dismantle," Damon says.
Shane tells Damon he expects Damon to try and kill him when they get near the cure, but Bonnie has to keep him alive so he can keep her alive.
In the middle of the night, Jeremy is awoken by a tribal man.
Back at the Gilbert house, Caroline freaks out, knowing that she'll die if Klaus doesn't heal her. Tyler says he'll fix it, then begs Klaus to save her. When Klaus refuses, Tyler offers to be his slave again. Klaus refuses.Caroline asks Tyler to get her away from Klaus.
Back on the island, they split up to search for Jeremy. Damon finds Shane going for his satellite phone, which he said earlier wasn't working. Damon demands to know where the cure is.
Shane explains it's at the bottom of the well.
Flash back to Shane with his wife Caitlin, realizing that his bleeding was keeping her there with him. She tells him about Silas and if Shane sets him free, he'll help those who helped him. She told him everything he had to do, including finding a descendant of Qetsiyah to perform the spell.
Back at camp, Bonnie tries a locator spell for Jeremy. She lights a fire then follows its trail through the woods. The wind starts blowing and she hears voices all around her.
Elena, Rebekah and Stefan walk through the woods, with the women bickering. Elena trips a trap, and Rebekah stops wooden spikes before they skewer Elena.
Rebekah doesn't care of Elena dies, but says if she does it might as well be epic.Elena goes back to check on Bonnie.
Damon reviews the plan with Shane, including the sacrifices.
Back at the bottom of the well, Shane objects when his wife tells him all he has to do is convince someone that they can see a lost loved one again.
"Which is how you convinced the pastor to blow up a farmhouse full of people," Damon concludes.
But he needs three massacres and Damon only counts two, including Klaus's holiday hybrid slaughter. He wants to make Shane tell him more.
Caroline gets worse. Tyler blames himself, but she tells him he's a great leader and people believe in him. He checks that she trust him, then takes her back and lays her at Klaus' feet, saying if he wants her to die, he'll have to watch. Tyler leaves.
"Nothing personal, but if I cure you, that means victory for him. Don't worry, it won't be long now," Klaus tells her.
Damon starts his interrogation of Shane, who taunts Damon about how Elena is going to leave him. Shane reminds him they need him alive to control Bonnie.
"There is one flaw in your logic: I don't give a crap about Bonnie Bennett," Damon says, as he prepares to snap Shane's neck.Elena flies in and stops him. She tells Shane to stop messing with her friends.
Elena follows Damon and he picks a fight with her. He asks what will happen if she takes the cure and he stays a vampire, he gets to watch her grow old and die.She thinks he's doing what he always does: pushing her away because he doesn't think he deserves her.She asks him to take the cure with her so they can grow old together.
But Damon says that's what Stefan wants, not him. He can't think of anything more miserable than being human.
Rebekah and Stefan tromp through the woods at night and trip another trap, ending up close together. They have a quick moment, and he asks if she's serious about a truce with Elena. Rebekah argues that they're being unfair to think of her as evil.
Rebekah points out that she only ran Elena off the bridge to save her family, doing what they always do: protecting the people they love. And Elena has helped to kill two of Rebekah's brothers.
Elena goes looking for Bonnie and finds both she and Shane are gone, as is his stuff. Rebekah and Stefan come back and find Elena. The headstone is gone.
Back at the Gilbert house, Klaus tells Caroline that letting her die will teach Tyler a lesson. Caroline says he's doing it because he's hurt, which means there's a part of him that's human. She says she's seen it and has wished she could forget all the horrible things he's done.
"I know that you're in love with me, and anybody capable of love is capable of being saved," she says.Klaus says she's hallucinating.
She struggles for breath and goes limp. Klaus finally feeds her his blood.
Back on the island, Rebekah freaks out thinking Stefan and Elena are behind the disappearance of the tombstone. Stefan says the cure is his only hope to end the constant pain and suffering of being a vampire. Elena is struck by how differently he and Damon view being a vampire.
Elena offers Rebekah a stake as a peace offering, saying the three of them have to work together.
Meanwhile, Shane runs through the woods with the tombstone. He meets up with a man who has Jeremy bound and gagged. Shane assumes he's the one who threw the hatchet to save Jeremy, but he didn't. Bonnie finds them and Shane introduces Massac, the witch, who will prevent her from leaving.
Damon walks alone in the woods and gets hit by an arrow. Someone jumps out and attacks him. Damon gets the upperhand as they fight, then he sees the man's mark and realizes he's one of the five. The hunter regains the upperhand and snaps Damon's neck.

A View to a Kill
Stefan wakes up in bed with Rebekah...
more
Stefan wakes up in bed with Rebekah draped over him. How do you sneak out on a vampire with super senses? Very quickly.
He makes it to the door, where Klaus greets him. Rebekah is annoyed.
Klaus is angry because Kol took his daggers, he wants Rebekah's dagger and white oak ash to go after Kol. She says no, she doesn't want to be left defenseless.
Klaus makes a pitch to Stefan to get it so they can end Kol's compulsion of Damon and keep Jeremy safe.
Bonnie calls Elena from dance prep. Elena's on lockdown at home with Jeremy and Matt. She tells Bonnie about her plan to have Jeremy kill Kol.
Elena washes her hands and gets burned.
Bonnie calls her dad the mayor, who says he put vervane in the water supply and is instituting a curfew and canceling all town events, including the dance. He calls her home for a family meeting.
But before she makes it out of the high school, Kol attacks her. "No one can get to the cure if you're too dead to find it," he says as he throttles her.
She turns on her expression powers and backs him off, forcing him to his knees as balloons pop and lockers fly open around her. She runs.
Stefan checks on Damon in the dungeon. He's still weak from being bled. Stefan brings him a vial of blood and water. And Klaus, there to play babysitter to Damon.Klaus tells Damon about Stefan's hook up with Rebekah. Stefan leaves them to enjoy their "villain bonding time."
Elena calls Stefan to tell him that Kol just tried to kill Bonnie. She tells him her Jeremy-Kol plan, which involves him getting the dagger from Rebekah to Matt so he can use it on her (because vampires can't dagger each other).
Bonnie thinks she can take Klaus out of the picture. Stefan asks how she'll lure Kol in.
Elena calls Kol from Jeremy's phone to call a truce, in the name of Silas. Before she's off the phone, Kol is on her doorstep. Matt and Jeremy grab weapons as Elena scribbles on a chalkboard, telling Matt to help Stefan find the dagger and Jeremy to get out and find Bonnie. But Jeremy points out he's the only one who can invite him inside.
Jeremy does, then leaves. Elena sees that Kol has the white oak stake in his coat pocket.
Stefan returns to Rebekah's. She's upset the dance is canceled, but Stefan suggests they can still go.
Klaus tries to figure out the hold Damon has on Elena and how he got her to forgive him for all the stuff he's done. Damon thinks he's worried Caroline won't forgive him for killing Carol Lockwood.
"If you're going to be bad, be bad with purpose, otherwise you're just not worth forgiving," Damon says.
Back at her house, Elena offers to give up looking for the cure if he leaves Jeremy alone. Jeremy texts her to keep Kol there while he looks for Bonnie. He calls Bonnie but can't reach her.
Matt searches through Rebekah's room for the dagger.
Kol knew witches through the years who knew about Silas, that he needed to stay buried. They said if Silas rises, he'll unleash hell on earth.
At Bonnie's, her dad has her phone and her keys and plans to make her stay and talk. Jeremy pounds on the door and tells Bonnie what's going on. When her dad forbids her from leaving, she bursts a lightbulb and heads for the door. Her mom, Abby the vampire, stops her.
Abby tells Jeremy that Bonnie is done helping Elena. Jeremy takes out a stake to use on Abby, but Bonnie stops her. Jeremy leaves.
Back at Elena's, she tries to convince Kol she really would stop looking for the cure. He wraps things up and leaves, warning her again about Silas.
Stefan and Rebekah show up at the empty high school gym in full 80s mode. He plays The Cure. (Get it?)
Jeremy comes home on Kol alert. Elena tells him Kol left, but then the doorbell rings. Kol is back, having rejected the truce.
Bonnie tries to convince her parents she's fine. She tells her mom about the cure and that she needs expression to find it.
"I'm not the one who needs to be saved, Bonnie. You are," Abby says as she knocks her daughter out with a powder.
Back in the dungeon, Klaus is surprised Damon hasn't tried to escape. He figures it's best to stay put, since he's compelled to kill Jeremy. Klaus wonders how Elena felt about the fact Damon couldn't overcome his compulsion.
"She's met me, she knows impulse control is not my strong suit," Damon says.
Klaus remembers Stefan resisting his compulsion for Elena. Klaus thinks finding the cure will bring Stefan and Elena back together.
Kol calls Klaus and tells him Elena and Jeremy are trying to kill him. Klaus leaves.
At the Gilbert house, Elena hits Kol with an arrow, which barely fazes him.
At the dance, Stefan finds booze and tells Rebekah about spending the fun 80s with Lexie. Rebekah reveals she has the dagger stuck in her boot. Stefan texts Matt about it.
Back at Elena's, Kol tears through the house. Jeremy fires stake spears at him, but misses. Elena hits him with wooden bullets, but he nails her in the leg with a spear. Jeremy runs when she tells him to, but Kol catches up quickly and throws him down the stairs.
He throws Elena off and stakes her with a staircase spire through the stomach.
Kol drags Jeremy down the stairs.
Stefan shows Rebekah "The Breakfast Club" slide in the hall. She tries in her boots, but skids. He tells her to take them off. Matt waits behind some lockers.
Rebekah takes out the dagger and gives it to Stefan, knowing it's what he was after. She does care, she wants to be human.
"So let Klaus put down my brother and lets go home," she says.
Abby plans to keep Bonnie drugged long enough to get witches there to help cleanse her. But Bonnie wakes up and uses expression to incapacitate her mom.
"I don't belong to the spirits anymore, I belong to myself," Bonnie says.
Elena tries to get free from the spire in her side.
Downstairs, Kol has Jeremy tied down on the table and prepares to hack off his arm with a butcher knife. But just then Elena runs downstairs and attacks Kol, freeing Jeremy. She drives the butcher knife into Kol's shoulder and Jeremy grabs the sink sprayer and blasts him with vervaned water. Elena grabs the white oak stake out of Kol's pocket and tosses it to Jeremy, who drives it into Kol's chest.
They watch as he bursts into flames and stumbles, screaming, through their house. Klaus watches from the doorway, unable to come in.
Elena explains that they didn't have a choice. Klaus rages, saying he's going to burn the house to the ground. He doesn't care about using them to get to the cure or about his hybrids, he was going to destroy the cure and kill them anyway, instead he'll just kill them now.
They're trying to figure out their next move when Klaus drops to his knees. Bonnie has arrived.
She tells Jeremy to invite Klaus in and when he does, Bonnie imprisons him in a field of magic in the living room. Jeremy takes the white oak stake out of Kol and he, Bonnie and Elena leave a screaming, frothing Klaus inside, hurling threats.
Back home, Stefan tells Rebekah that Kol is dead. She cries over the news, but Stefan says he couldn't let the people he cares about get hurt. He wants to find the cure with her, for her. She tries to decide whether to trust him.
Back at the Salvatores', Jeremy waits for his hunter's mark to show. Bonnie reminds him it takes time for the line of vampires to die off. Damon joins them from the basement. He's hugging Elena when Stefan comes in with the Silas headstone.
Bonnie says she used the new moon to bind the spell keeping Klaus put, they have three days to find the cure.
Stefan confesses he didn't dagger Rebekah because she's on their side. Elena can't believe Stefan would trust her. Damon mentions Stefan sleeping with Rebekah, enjoying spilling the beans.
Stefan suggests Damon use his sire bond to tell Elena to calm down. Damon decks him. The Salvatores are about to go at it when Jeremy hulks out, ripping off his shirt as the mark reveals itself.
They can see all see it."Here we go," Damon says.

Catch Me If You Can

Matt runs through the forest, trying to get away from something -- a vampire grabs him and chomps on his neck. Jeremy runs up and pulls the vampire off.
Back in the bar, Jeremy doesn't like the plan, so Klaus threatens to compel the vampires to kill Matt. He's offering a two minute head start. Damon can't talk Klaus out of it. They prepare to run.
Back in the forest, Matt is OK, but wants a minute to regroup. They don't have it. Damon shows up to help, warning Jeremy he needs to be ready. Jeremy wants to get Matt to safety at the lake house first. Damon stays behind to slow down the vampires with a little heart ripping.
Matt is running through the woods when another vampire jumps him. This time it's Elena who grabs the vampire and dispatches him.
The run for the safety of the house.
The next morning, the sun has driven the vampires away.Elena is angry at Damon for his cock-eyed plan, but Damon blames Jeremy for developing a conscience. Damon tries to focus on the fact that the vampires needed to be dealt with.
He suggests Elena take Matt home, leaving him with Jeremy to finish them off.
Back at the Salvatores, Rebekah drops in on Stefan. She remembers Shane mentioned he had Silas' headstone and wants to steal it, so that Team Shane (with Bonnie) will have to join Team Rebekah.
With Shane, Bonnie worries that she won't be able to control Expression. He lightly hypnotizes her, telling her he's there with her and she's in complete control.
Then Sheriff Forbes and a deputy come in and put Shane in cuffs.
Back at the lake, Damon and Jeremy arm up. They go back to the bar where Stefan turned the vampires, expecting to find them. Instead, they find a bloody mess.
"Something's not right," Damon says.
They follow the thick trail of blood back to the cooler and find a pile of vampire bodies.Kol steps out, confessing to the killing.
He cautions them about the risks of waking Silas. A few years back a group of Silas' worshippers told Kol that resurrecting him would lead to the end of the world, and he's against that. He killed them all.
Jeremy isn't convinced.
Since Kol can't kill Jeremy without suffering from the hunter's curse, he proposes to rip off his arms.Damon pins Kol and tells Jeremy to run. Kol quickly gets Damon in a headlock.
Rebekah and Stefan tear through Shane's office. She sees he's pent up and angry and offers him "herbs." She remembers how much fun he was in the 20s.
Rebekah assures Stefan that Shane won't be back any time soon.
In the sheriff's station, Liz interrogates Shane, accusing him of orchestrating the death of the council members. Bonnie's dad says April Young told them what he did and Rebekah corroborated that he confessed.Bonnie wants to hear it for herself. She joins the interrogation and her dad and Liz leave.
"Rebekah told them you confessed, I know she's lying," Bonnie says."You know the truth is: She's not," Shane says.
Elena brings Matt back to town. He's angry and blaming Damon for everything. He can't believe she left Jeremy alone with him.
Jeremy calls her, telling her Kol has Damon.
Elena goes to Klaus for help. He calls Kol, who says he gave Damon "a good and proper beating, for old times' sake."
Klaus warns Kol to stay away from Damon. Kol gives his word he won't touch him, then hangs up and compels Damon to stab himself.
In the freezer, Kol guesses that Damon doesn't really want the cure for Elena because he likes her as she is. He thinks Damon really wants Jeremy dead.
He compels Damon to find Jeremy and kill him and also to forget he was compelled.
Back at their house, Jeremy is ready to go finish his mark, but he doesn't trust Damon's motives. He warns Elena to stay back, since he's in full hunter mode.
Hanging out in Shane's office, Rebekah tells Stefan the reason she wouldn't compel memories of Elena out of him was because she wanted him to suffer. She thinks love and caring ruin vampires. They had fun in the 20s because they didn't care. She comes on to him, remembering how they just did what felt good. He remembers the sex was good because she's crazy and crazy sex is always good. They seem to be considering it.
Later, a guy comes into Shane's office looking around for a secret compartment. He finds the headstone. Rebekah finds him.
Damon comes by Elena's. She tells him Jeremy is at the Grill. Damon says he wants to go apologize.
Back in interrogation, Bonnie turns off the camera and makes sure her dad isn't watching. Shane assures her he was always going to tell her the truth. He says killing the council was a ritual to raise Silas, and Silas will bring them back.
"I'm not crazy, I'm just passionate," he says.
Shane brings up Bonnie's Grams, asking if she wants to see her again.
Damon shows up at the Grill with Elena, still looking for Jeremy. He vamps out the second he sees him, even though they're in a crowded public place. Elena's voice stops him.
Jeremy sees the look in Damon's eyes and steps into the storage room to arm himself.
Elena follows Damon into the storage room, asking what's wrong. He realizes Kol must have compelled him and follows Jeremy into the secret passage to the tunnels.
Damon yells at Jeremy that he's been compelled and he's coming to kill him. "You need to go, now!" Damon says.
In Shane's office, April tortures the man who came for the tombstone. He's full of vervane, so they don't know if he was compelled, but he's not talking. As they're figuring out what to do, the man bites off his own tongue. Then he grabs the knife from Rebekah and stabs himself in the throat.
Guess he was compelled after all. But by whom? "Maybe there's another team in the race," Stefan says.
In the station, Shane tells Bonnie that her Grams is being tortured on the other side. She yells at him to be quiet and when he won't, she uses Expression to break his hand. He sees that she can't stop. Her dad comes in to try to help and she creates a wall of fire to keep him away. They can't reason with her, so Shane speaks to her hypnotically again, snapping her out of it. The flames disappear and his hand is healed.
She leaves and Shane addresses the mayor. "Your daughter is a prodigy. With my guidance, she can be one of the most powerful witches in the world. But without it, she's a time bomb," Shane says.
Rebekah grabs Stefan's phone when Elena calls. She tells them about Kol compelling Jeremy in the hopes they care enough to save the way to the cure.
Down in the tunnel, Jeremy cuts his hand to draw Damon to him. Damon finds him easily and attacks, biting his arm. Jeremy shoots him, but Damon tells him he has to shoot him in the heart because he won't be able to stop himself. Damon goads him until Jeremy pulls the trigger.
Later, Damon wakes up and pulls the wooden bullet out of his head. He curses Jeremy as a "stupid, idiot, borderline brain dead moron."
Rebekah confronts Kol, pointing out that Klaus won't be happy. She gets a dagger near his back and threatens to use it. He laments what their family has become, siblings daggering each other over every disagreement. He turns on her and reveals that he has the white oak dagger. Klaus intervenes before Kol can really kill Rebekah.
Jeremy runs wounded and bleeding through the forest. He stops to rest and Damon catches up. Elena finds Damon and begs him to stop, saying he can resist the compulsion because he loves her. But he hears Jeremy's blood dripping and runs to it.
Again, he confronts Jeremy, telling him to shoot. Jeremy pulls the trigger, but Stefan pushes Damon out of the way at the last second. Then he snaps Damon's neck.
Damon wakes up in his cellar. Stefan bled him out to weaken him so he won't go after Jeremy. He won't let him see Elena because with her sire bond, he can tell her to let him out and she will. He plans to keep Damon locked up until they find the cure.
Upstairs, Stefan explains to Elena why she can't see Damon. Elena reminds him Rebekah tried to kill her and asks why he's working with her. Damon tried to kill Jeremy twice, so nobody's perfect, he says.
Elena tries to understand why he's acting this way. He explains that this is how he is when he's not in love with her.
She leaves.
Bonnie sits down to dinner with her dad at the Grill. He says he wants to get her help, but she doesn't think she needs it.
Klaus knocks on the Gilberts' door, offering to protect Jeremy from Kol. Elena turns him away.
"As for you, hunter, there's no shortage of people to turn or loved ones to threaten. So sleep well. We'll plan on finishing our work tomorrow," Klaus says.
Stefan drops in on Rebekah. She thinks Kol has lost his mind. Stefan wants to know where headstone is, but she says she's keeping it safe. Given that he's betrayed her twice and she's betrayed him never, she thinks it's smart.
She's trying to figure out why he's there."You even have to ask?" he says.
She gets it. "No feelings, no attachments."
They throw each other on the bed.
Back at the house, Jeremy is desperate for a way out. Elena reminds him that killing one original will kill their entire line of vampires, thousands. So Jeremy will kill Kol.

Back up at the lake at night, Damon whittles wooden bullets. Klaus joins him, wanting to turn someone for Jeremy to kill. He thinks Damon is trying to take the moral high road for Elena's sake. Klaus tells him he's taken the necessary steps.
The cute pizza delivery girl knocks on the cabin door, saying she ran out of gas. Matt goes to get his phone, but she's stuck at the doorstep. Jeremy says hi and invites her in.
Rebekah and Kol drag Shane to storage room. Compulsion won't work, so she tells Kol to beat him until he gives up the location of the cure.
Back at truth table, Rebekah orchestrates compelled truth or dare, forcing Elena to tell Stefan how she feels with Damon: free and unpredictable. And lately, with Stefan she's felt like she was a problem that needs to be fixed. "I think I make him sad and I can't be with someone like that because when he looks at me all he sees is a broken toy," she says.She loves Stefan, but isn't in love with him anymore. Stefan admits it hurt to hear.
Tyler joins them. Rebekah compels the vampires not to run and tells Tyler to turn. She knows he'll kill them if he does, she doesn't want competition looking for the cure.
In the cabin, the pizza girl attacks Matt. Jeremy finds her and quickly stakes her. He watches his tattoo grow.
Bonnie comes to the high school looking for Shane. April tells her what Rebekah's up to, thinking she's just getting at the truth. Bonnie does a protection spell for Shane.
Meanwhile, Kol repeatedly dunks Shane in water to force him to talk. Shane doesn't care about the cure, he just wants to free Silas.
As Shane is being drowned, April starts cough. As Shane's head is underwater, April spits up water.
Kol relents. Rebekah doesn't think Silas is real. Shane says he knows where Silas is buried and soon they'll have the spell to raise him. He mentions dozens have to die in a blood sacrifice and says he's done it. Rebekah realizes he got the Council blown up.Shane says the sacrifices are temporary because once they raise Silas, he'll bring back everyone who died on his behalf.
Kol gets angry and grabs a metal pipe. He jams it through Shane's stomach and he collapses on the ground. So does April, bleeding profusely from her stomach.
In the library, Tyler tries to fight the compulsion to turn but it's not going well. He yells at his friends to leave. Tyler easily busts down the door and chases after them. Stefan bars a door with an ax but it's not enough to stop him. Werewolf Tyler fights and tries to break down the door until suddenly, he stops.
Rebekah is mad at Kol for killing Shane, but he thinks he did her a favor since bringing Silas back would be "hell on earth." Kol reveals he has the white oak stake.They leave and Shane sits up. He pulls the rod out of his body.
Stefan and Elena find Bonnie with April. Bonnie explains her protection spell for Shane accidentally linked him to April. She says it was different than usual, she didn't bleed or feel any pain. "This time I just felt more power," she says.Stefan feeds April his blood and April gets up. Bonnie takes her somewhere safe.
Elena wants to talk about things with Stefan but Rebekah interrupts.
Caroline finds Tyler, changed back to human form, in the gym. He breaks down, saying everything is his fault.
Rebekah makes Elena an offer: she'll erase every memory of her from Stefan. Elena says no, but Stefan says yes.Rebekah laughs at him, saying it'd be too easy. She refuses.
Elena tries to talk to Stefan, but he just walks away.
Bonnie goes Shane for answers about "expression." He says it's a way of doing magic that isn't monitored by the spirits, it isn't good or bad."You are the key to everyone. I'm not going to let anything bad happen to you," he says.
Back up at the lake house, Damon buries the pizza girl. Elena calls.
She tells him Stefan knows. She says she has to tell him the most real thing she's ever felt in her life: she loves him.He tells her he's going to get the cure for her, even if it means doing things she doesn't like. Then he tells her to get in her car and come to him.
Rebekah drops by Stefan's -- he called her. She wants the cure to turn Klaus mortal.Stefan tells Rebekah that Shane isn't dead. He admits he wants the cure to know how Elena really feels about Damon.Rebekah tells him about Shane's dark agenda: that he admitted to the council fire and probably was involved in Klaus killing 12 hybrids. Stefan recognizes this as expression.
He suggests they team up. They both hate their brothers, Damon has Jeremy, Klaus has the sword and Shane has Bonnie. Whoever finds the cure first gets to decide what to do with it.
April insists her dad had no reason to kill himself or those people. She tells Forbes and Hopkins that Shane orchestrated the whole thing.
Matt, Damon and Jeremy show up at a bar in town to find Klaus at the bar and bodies everywhere. They're in transition, for Jeremy to kill."You said you were going to convince Klaus to do this another way," Jeremy says."Well, I thought about it. And then I realized: his idea was better," Damon says.
The newborn vampires start to come to life.

"The Vampire Diaries: O Come, All Ye Faithful (#4.9)"
Elena and Damon wake up in bed...
more
Elena and Damon wake up in bed together -- fully clothed. "I was being a gentleman," Damon insists.She's not ready to let go of what she feels for him, even if it's because of the sire bond. Damon promised Stefan he'd let her go, but neither of them feel like following through.
Elena has to meet with Bonnie, she's teaching Jeremy how not to kill Elena. She invites Damon.
Klaus summons Adrian his hybrid to take the painting he just completed to the Grill for the Winter Fair. Adrian is annoyed to be bossed around.
Stefan wants to find the cure more than ever now that Elena turns out to be sired to Damon, but they need Jeremy to keep killing vampires who are not his friends.
Stefan asks for proof that Klaus brought the sword back from Italy. Klaus opens his safe and shows him.
Down in the cave, Adrian vents to Kim and Tyler about having to pretend to do Klaus' bidding. Hayley brings news that she found the witch who will save them. "You guys did your part by breaking your sire bond, now Hayley and I are going to do ours," Tyler says.
Caroline is not a fan of the plan when he explains to her that a witch will do the body transport spell on him and he'll be encased in concrete long enough to let the hybrids get away.
Out at the cabin, Jeremy chops wood and holds onto his ax a little too tightly when Damon and Elena drive up. Bonnie tells him they're there to help.So is Professor Shane, Elena invited him.
She waits outside the door for Jeremy to invite her in. He lets her in, but then immediately attacks her. She fends him off.
Caroline calls Stefan, freaking out about Tyler. He explains that the sword decodes Jeremy's hunter mark. Caroline thinks they need to get their hands on the sword today, before the hybrids take out Klaus tonight.
At the Winter Wonderland fair, Caroline admires Klaus' "lonely" snowflake painting. She accepts his offer of champagne and texts Stefan.
Back at Klaus' gets Caroline's all clear and opens the safe, but the sword is gone. He finds old letters instead.He calls Damon for ideas, but all of his ideas involve killing Tyler or letting Klaus kill Tyler.
When Stefan asks how Elena took it when Damon let her go, he doesn't mention he chickened out.
In the cabin, Shane explains that reprogramming Jeremy's subconscious will help him fight the vampire-killing urge. He hypnotizes him, to help Jeremy's subconscious have time to make a choice when he sees Elena instead of instantly wanting to kill her.
Shane encourages Elena to talk to him. She remembers coming to the lake cabin with their parents and says they would have wanted them to stick together.
It doesn't appear to work on Jeremy. He says: "She ruined our lives. She's not even my real sister, she's just the reason that everyone I've ever loved has died. She means nothing to me, I will kill her."
It didn't work.
Stefan tells Caroline that Tyler needs to delay his Klaus plan so they can find the sword. Tyler shows up and is angry at Caroline for telling Stefan what he's been planning. Tyler doesn't owe Stefan anything. Stefan steps to Tyler and tells him he can't let him go forward with it.
But then Caroline and Stefan see they're completely surrounded by hybrids.
Damon brings Elena a drink on the dock. "I shouldn't have put so much hope into reprogramming someone's mind. If it were that easy then you and I wouldn't be in this situation, right?" she says.
Damon has another suggestion.
Tyler and the hybrids take Caroline to the cellar and prepare to lock them up if necessary. As a hybrid Tyler couldn't care less about the cure, since it would turn him back into a werewolf that turns every full moon.
Back at the cabin, Damon presents an alternative. "Professor Shane has been dipping into the magical herbs a little too much if he thinks using a vampire to suppress the need to kill another one is going to work on a hunter. It's like dangling a cheeseburger in front of someone on a master cleanse," he says.
He suggests Jeremy find someone else to attach his positive vibes to. Jeremy looks at Bonnie.
Out on the dock, Shane tells Elena that his wife and young child died years ago. When Damon comes out threatening him with an ax, Shane also mentions he can tell them how to find the cure -- he's already been there.
Back at the Winter Wonderland fair, Carol Lockwood gives April her Miss Mystic Falls duties.
Tyler finds his mom and tells her his plan. She tells him his dad would be proud and he should do what he has to do.
Shane shows Elena and Damon his really old rock and tells them the story of Silas the witch and his best friend witch who made themselves immortal. But then Silas' best friend got jealous and killed Silas' girlfriend. Silas found a way to reverse the immortality spell, but before he could take it, his best friend buried him, leaving him and the cure to rot.
"You dig up Silas and you've got your cure," Shane says.
In the cellar, the hybrids get jumpy when Stefan takes a call from Damon. "Don't ask how or why or who, but I just found the answer to your Tyler problem," Damon says.They don't need the sword.
Shane explains the drawing of the hunter's mark, including the mark of the Five and a depiction of a murder of a girl by a witch. When the mark is complete it will have the spell to dig up Silas.Damon asks where it is. "You've threatened to kill me, what, three times already this week? The location's how I'm going to survive your bad moods," Shane says.
Shane says he's just in it for the history of finding Silas.
Caroline explains to Tyler again how dumb his plan is, and she has an alternative body for Klaus: Rebekah, currently staked in a coffin in the cellar.Tyler thinks it's brilliant, but Hayley senses a problem.
She texts Shane that the plan is falling apart. He texts her to fix it.
In the ladies room at the Grill, Caroline calls Bonnie to run the plan by her. She thinks it'll work. Bonnie mentions that Damon and Elena are both there. Caroline is annoyed, but doesn't have time to deal with it.
Caroline relays Bonnie's message to Hayley, who promptly snaps Caroline's neck.
At the cabin, Elena says she trusts Shane, so Damon tells her his theory that Shane was involved in the Pastor Young explosion. Shane says he was just counseling Young.
Jeremy and Bonnie announce they've had a break-through. Bonnie tells Elena not to move. Jeremy is holding a stake.He pauses, then hands it over to Damon. Jeremy hugs Elena.
Shane checks his phone. He has a text from Hayley saying she'll fix it and he'll get his 12.
At the Winter Wonderland fair, Klaus asks Stefan what he's been up to. Stefan confesses he broke into the safe looking for the sword. Stefan says he found Klaus' letters. Klaus claims they're from his victims and relates to Stefan as a lonely killer.
April Young goes into the ladies room and finds Caroline dead on the floor. Caroline pops up and leaves Stefan a message telling him Hayley has lost her mind and he needs to go check to make sure Rebekah's body is still in the cellar.
Caroline compels April to forget what just happened.
Back in the Grill, Matt tells Caroline that Stefan is looking for her; Adrian's leading Klaus to the cellar. She mentions April and Matt tells her April is wearing Jeremy's vervain bracelet and can't be compelled.
Tyler goes back out into the fair and leaves his mom a message saying everything is going to be fine. He's surprised to see Hayley there, she's supposed to be leading the witch to the cellar.
"There is no witch, Tyler. I made it up," she says. Hayley explains what's happening as it happens out in the woods.
The hybrids wait for the witch. Adrian shows up, but his heart is promptly ripped out -- by Klaus.
Hayley says she needed the hybrids for the sacrifice because she made a deal with someone who could help her find her family.
Out in the woods, Klaus goes ninja commando hybrid and slaughters his hybrids one by one with his new sword.
Kim runs away into the cellar but is trapped by the gate. Klaus asks where Tyler is. Kim doesn't know, so he cuts off her head.
Back at the cabin, Jeremy, Elena and Bonnie go through their old Christmas decorations. Elena beckons Damon to join them and when he doesn't, she takes mistletoe out to him. But he says he can't.
"Damon, you can't keep telling me that this isn't real. I know how I feel and that you feel it, too. So stop fighting it," Elena says.
He wants her to have a normal life again. He feels guilty for not doing the right thing by her and Stefan. He tells her to go home, he'll help Jeremy complete the mark. "I'm setting you free Elena, this is what will make me happy," he says.
Back at the Salvatores', Caroline reports that Matt can't find April and she can't reach Tyler. They both feel a little guilty for setting Klaus up to be killed.
Stefan says they've all done horrible things, the only thing that makes them better than Klaus is that they have family they can trust.
Caroline agrees that trust is everything and tells him Damon and Elena are together.
"How together are they?" Stefan asks. When she doesn't answer, he understands what it means.
At the cabin, Jeremy says good-bye to Bonnie and Damon says good-bye to Elena."I was ready to fight you on this, but suddenly every part of my body is telling me that I need to get in this car and leave you," Elena says. She kisses Damon and gets in the car.
Stefan goes on an angry mini-rampage at home.
Tyler checks out the hybrid carnage in the woods and cellar. April Young hides in the cellar, seeing everything, including the closed coffin.
After Tyler leaves, she opens it and sees staked Rebekah inside.
Carol Lockwood leaves Tyler a tipsy message. Klaus strolls up, covered in blood, also looking for Tyler. She begs him not to hurt Tyler since he's all she has."And you're all he has, there's a beautiful symmetry in that, don't you think?" Klaus says. Then he grabs hold of Carol and drowns her in the town fountain.

Damon wakes up -- Elena is still there, in her underwear. He's happy.Over at Caroline's, she's freaking out over their conclusion that Elena is sired to Damon. "Everything he asks her to do, she does," Caroline says.Back in bed with Damon, Elena seems to be proving Caroline right.Caroline wants to go to Tyler for advice on the sire bond.Meanwhile, Tyler, Hayley and Kim, who broke her bond last week, oversee Adrian's attempts to break the sire bond to Klaus. He needs a break from the pain and Hayley urges him to keep going, but Kim grants him a reprieve, reminding them the point of the exercise is to give him free will.At his house, Damon tries to convince Elena to wait to tell Stefan about them, just for one day. She agrees.After Elena leaves, Stefan comes in and breaks it down for Damon, who thinks the idea of Elena being sired to him is nonsense. Stefan asks him to prove him wrong by telling Elena she can drink blood from the bag. Damon reluctantly agrees.At school, Elena invites Caroline and Bonnie over to the Salvatores' for girl time tonight. Bonnie has some new small spells from Shane she wants to try. Caroline still thinks he's creepy.Damon comes to school with a bag of blood for Elena, telling her he thinks it'll work. He watches as she sucks it down, hoping for a reaction. But she's fine. He's bothered.Shane comes back to his office to find Hayley rooting through his stuff. Once she brings him 12 unsired hybrids, he'll give her information on her biological parents. She has 11, not including Tyler, whom she's trying to keep out of it.Caroline calls Stefan, explaining how the hybrid bond works. But there's no vampire equivalent.Stefan comes home to find Damon rooting through old papers. He tells Stefan he was right about Elena. Damon reminds him about New Orleans in 1942, and Charlotte.Flash back to 1942Charlotte asked him to turn her, so he obliged. In a club, she picked out the singer she wanted to have for dinner. Damon went to talk to the singer, telling Charlotte to "show no mercy" if anyone touched his drink. When a sailor knocked it over moments later, she snapped his neck in a room full of people.She was sired to Damon.PresentHe found a witch named Valerie La Marche to help him break the sire bond. "Pack your bags, baby bro. We're going back to Bourbon Street," Damon says.Later that night, Elena passes out bottles of champagne to Caroline and Bonnie. She tells them she can drink out of bags, thanks to Damon. Caroline takes note.Bonnie changes the subject to the "stoner tea" Shane gave her to help her access her natural magic.In New Orleans, Stefan tells Damon the sire bond is responsible for Elena's feelings for him. Without the sire bond, "it's impossible for her to be so blind that she doesn't see how wrong you are for her," Stefan says.Stefan apologizes.1942Lexie walks Stefan through the apology he's going to give Damon. Stefan finds him at a New Orleans' bar and says he wants to bury the hatchet.Stefan's about to ship out to war, driving an ambulance in Egypt. Damon talks about joining him. When Stefan goes to get them a round, Lexie tells Damon he can't go with Stefan to war. He needs a balanced perspective of war, not Damon's me-first perspective.Charlotte brings a bleeding woman in for Damon to feed on. Stefan starts to feel his old ripper urges and has to run off. Lexie tells Damon that Charlotte is better off without him, too.PresentStefan tries to un-blame Damon for the sire bond. Damon doesn't know where to find the witch, so they decide to find Charlotte. Damon left her on a street corner after telling her to count every brick in New Orleans. Stefan wonders how literal the bond is.Back in Mystic Falls, Hayley tries to convince Tyler to pressure Adrian into finishing breaking the sire bond. She thinks Kim is challenging Tyler's role as alpha in the pack and tells him to put her in her place. Kim steps to him, but he warns her not to challenge him again and meet at the stables.When he leaves, Kim tells Adrian they're going to go pick a fight.New OrleansCharlotte isn't on the corner where Damon left her. They debate what to tell Elena."It looks to me like the only reason you want to break her sire bond is to restore her original factory Team Stefan settings," Damon says. He leaves to get a drink.Walking alone down the street, he hears something and someone jumps on him.Stefan comes over and pulls her off. It's Charlotte. She kissed him."I always knew you'd come back for me. I must have counted literally every brick on every building in all New Orleans," she says.Damon checks that she's done something else besides count bricks all these years. She says she has, it just helped her think of him.On the plus side, Damon points out, she knows New Orleans better than anyone.Back at the Salvatores, Bonnie, Caroline and Elena have a drunken dance party. Caroline makes a reference to how many skanks Damon has brought back to the house and Elena's mood sours. She defends him and then says she slept with him. They're appalled.New OrleansDamon and Stefan go into Nandi's shop and ask directly about a spell to break a sire bond. She says Valerie was her great-grandmother. He tells her Val had a grimoire with a spell like that in it.1942As a little girl writes lessons in the other room, Val tells Damon that the spell uses dark magic and the sacrifice of 12 humans.PresentNandi says all of Val's grimoires and spells were lost in Katrina. She says she doesn't practice.At the Salvatores', Elena angrily cleans up. When she tells them she thinks she's falling in love with Damon, Caroline sets her straight. "You're not falling in love with him, you're sired to him!"She lays out all the evidence and says Stefan can explain. When she says Damon took advantage of her, Elena opens the front door to usher them out.Kim and Adrian are standing on the doorstep. They rush in. Kim grabs Caroline and Adrian grabs Elena. Bonnie starts to use magic, but Kim reminds Bonnie that one bite from a hybrid could kill Caroline.They grab Caroline and leave.Out on the street, Damon says he killed 12 people to try to break the sire back in 1942 and he'd do it again.In the woods in Mystic Falls with Tyler, Elena looks for Caroline. Tyler explains that Kim is challenging his alpha status. Tyler says that even if Adrian is still sired to Klaus, it doesn't mean he likes him. It affects how you act, not how you feel.They hear Caroline yell in the distance.Damon returns to Nandi's shop, busting her for being Val's daughter. (Flash back to the girl in 1942 writing out her name as Nandi.) She's 80 but doesn't look a day over 50, which means she's practicing.When Damon steps toward her, she uses magic to immobilize him. Stefan steps out, saying they don't want trouble.Nandi says there was no spell. Her mother made up the need for sacrifice so she could access magic so dark it's called "expression." A sire bond can't be broken with magic. A vampire only develops the bond when she has human feelings for her sire before she turns. Vampirisim only heightens those emotions.To free her, Damon has to tell her to live her life without him and never think of him again and then leave her.Back in Mystic Falls, Kim tortures Caroline in the barn, to "show Tyler who's in charge."When Tyler comes in and tells her to stop and says they're on the same team, she says they're not. Tyler and Elena are quickly surrounded by the other hybrids.When Kim picks up a stake to use on Caroline, Elena suggests they torture her instead if they want to upset Klaus. When Kim goes to grab Elena, Tyler grabs Kim and rams his hand through her chest, threatening to rip her heart out. He addresses his fellow hybrids."Kim put you all at risk today, but I'm not going to hurt her, I'm not Klaus. I don't kill and torture my own friends to get what I want. Now we broke the sire bond. But if you want to be free, we have to work together. No one can step out of line. Now you're either with me, or against me. Submit. Submit or you die," he tells Kim.She apologizes and he lets her live. The other hybrids kneel before him.Back in New Orleans, Damon tells Charlotte she has to forget about him.Damon meets Stefan on the street. Stefan immediately questions whether he'll be able to do the same for Elena, pointing out Damon's not known for his selflessness."Yea well, one of these days you're going to realize you don't know me half as well as you think," Damon says.1942Damon arrives at the train station in uniform, ready to ship out. Lexie is there. She tells him again he can't go overseas with Stefan. She knows he just killed 12 people. If Stefan finds out that Damon can do it without guilt, he'll become a ripper all over again.Damon says he's been on his own since 1919 and needs his little brother again. She says it'll destroy Stefan and for once, Damon has to put someone else first and let him go.Damon sees Stefan waiting for him by the train tracks, but he picks up his bag and leaves.PresentDamon tells Stefan what he did in 1942. Stefan says that even if Elena never feels the same way about him again, at least it'll be her choice. Damon knows what he has to do.At the Salvatores' house in the morning, Caroline hugs Elena and says she's sorry. Elena asks Caroline not to tell Stefan yet.Elena notes to Caroline that whatever Shane's teaching her seems to be working. He calls it "expression," Bonnie says.In Shane's office, Hayley tells him Adrian broke his bond. She asks where her parents are. They're dead.She warns him he just picked a fight with a werewolf, but he says just because they're dead, doesn't mean she can't see them again.Stefan tells Caroline he feels bad for Damon, knowing he really does love Elena. Stefan thinks he'll do what he says. Stefan trusts Damon because he thinks Damon loves her as much as he does. "He can't be selfish with her, not anymore," he says.Damon returns home to see Elena cleaning up. He says they need to talk, and she says she knows she's sired to him. She tells him what Tyler said about the bond not affecting her feelings. She knows what he's about to do and asks him not to.He knows that he's not the guy who does the right thing, but he has to do the right thing by her.She takes his hand and holds onto his face and asks if it feels wrong.

Stefan quickly feeds him his blood and snaps his neck.At the pageant, Klaus cashes in his one date with Caroline promise to escort her to the event.Hayley supervises a hybrid changing over and over again to try to break her sire bond to Klaus. The sire bond exists because hybrids are grateful to him for sparing them the pain of having to turn, the idea is to keep turning until it doesn't hurt, thereby leaving them nothing to be grateful for.Tyler drops by to let Hayley know Caroline bought them another day. Hayley insists she escort him to the dance to sell the idea they're a couple.Back home, Jeremy helps Elena get a necklace off, but starts choking her with it. "I really wish you'd stop pretending you're my sister," he tells her.He wakes up sweating in bed, a knife in one hand and carved wooden stake in the other. Apparently he was doing some nocturnal whittling.The next day, Matt worries about Jeremy. He reads from Shane's materials, which say a new hunter might not be fully in control. Matt tells him to tell Elena, or he will.Jeremy gets a text to meet Stefan in the Lockwood cellar.Elena and Caroline help April pick her dress. Elena likes the blue one until Damon busts in and Elena acts weird and decides she likes the one Damon likes. Caroline is baffled.She follows Damon out, saying they need to talk. Damon asks why they broke up."You," she says.They share a long moment, which is broken up by Professor Shane.Outside, Damon asks him for another hunter but he says he can't help.

Shane asks, but he doesn't answer Damon's question.The pageant begins.Jeremy joins Stefan in the cellar, asking if he wants to make Elena human again.The murderer is chained up. Stefan slices Jeremy open and lets the murderer feed to complete the transition.

Damon can't keep his eyes off Elena.Elena calls Jeremy, but doesn't get him. She tells Damon and Caroline about Jeremy's nightmares. Damon isn't worried, but offers to go look for him.When he leaves, Caroline gives Elena an earful about how horrible Damon is. Klaus, of all people, tells Caroline she's making a scene. Elena leaves, hurt and in a huff.Damon calls Stefan, guessing what he's up to with Jeremy. Stefan thinks Damon only wants him to stop because new vampire Elena likes him.Down in the cellar, Stefan demands Jeremy tell him how the mark has developed, but Jeremy says no, that he can't trust him. Stefan tries to compel Jeremy, but it doesn't work. He gets a stake in the gut from Jeremy instead.Caroline vents to Klaus about Elena taking Damon's side on everything. He cryptically says it'll make sense soon. She urges him to find the cure quickly. He denies he'd ever want to take it.Tyler sees them laughing together and is jealous.Klaus starts reading from Caroline's pageant application from last year. He cracks her up playing keep away.Hayley shares a drink with Professor Shane. Damon is paranoid that they might know each other.Jeremy outfits himself with a stake and hunter gear and heads to the pageant.April sees him and asks where he was. She mentions that Shane said her dad didn't seem depressed. Jeremy gets super intense when he sees Elena. He tells April her dad was doing the right thing for the town and the council died heroes.Damon finds Shane inside and asks again about the hunter. He tells him there are only five at a time and most don't even know they are.When Shane walks away, Damon vampire speeds over in front of him. Shane already knew he was a vampire.Damon gives him five seconds to come up with another hunter's name, or die.Shane explains that the thing the mark leads to is sealed with a spell only a certain kind of witch can break -- a Bennett witch. Shane points out he's the one helping Bonnie get her magic back, so Damon needs him alive.Back at the pageant, Caroline announces the winner is April Young.Elena sees Jeremy in the crowd and follows him. Matt follows her.She finds him inside with a stake."Connor was right, all I can think about is killing vampires," he says. "Everything inside me is telling me to drive this stake through your heart."She takes his hand and assures him she'd never do anything to hurt him.She notices he's wearing a wrist guard that makes him bleed. She backs away when she starts to vamp out. He runs to her and she pushes him off. When she checks on him on the floor, he drives a small vervaned stake through her neck.He's about to really stake her when Matt comes in and pleads with him to stop.Jeremy isn't listening.Stefan shows up and restrains Jeremy. He takes the stake out of Elena's neck and tenderly cradles her face.Hayley and Tyler knock back champagne. She was adopted and triggered her wolf gene in a boating accident. He asks her about Shane, she says she just met him. They see Caroline and Klaus walking arm in arm.Tyler listens as Klaus admits he thought about being human once in a trek in the Andes. He saw a hummingbird and its furiously beating heart made him think what it must be like to have to work that hard to stay alive.Elena goes to look for Jeremy, but Stefan stops her. He thinks the urge to kill gets stronger for hunters with each kill. She realizes what he's been up to and tells him she doesn't want her humanity back at the sake of Jeremy's."You don't have to love me like this. This is who I am now. The old Elena died when she went off that bridge, let her go," she says.Damon finds them. Stefan sees what's going on and leaves.Back home, Jeremy packs up.

She gulps."I thought you hated whiskey.""My brother wants to kill me," she says."Welcome to the club," Damon says."Jeremy can't live with me, Stefan wants to fix me and Caroline flat out admitted that she doesn't like me this way. I think it's safe to say that I'm not so great at this vampire thing," she says."Want to know what I think? I don't think I've ever seen you more alive," Damon says.Elena says the dance at the pageant reminded her of when they danced, and she wanted to again. Damon helps her to her feet and they dance in front of the fire.Stefan drinks with Caroline, who urges him not to give up on Elena or trying to find the cure.She doesn't understand why Klaus cares about the cure, but Stefan reminds her he needs Elena human to make more hybrids.Caroline says he'll need to, Tyler almost has all of them unsired. Then she realizes something.Back in front of the fire, Damon and Elena kiss.Caroline explains the way Damon has been the answer to all of Elena's problems. As she talks, back at the Salvatore house, Elena and Damon tear each other's clothes off.He's the one who told her she couldn't feed from animals and that blood bags made her sick, even though no vampire has that problem. He told her to kill Connor and she did. Today, he said red dress and she changed her mind to agree. Elena became a vampire on his blood."It's rare, but it happens. What if this is one of those times?" she says."Elena's sired to Damon," Stefan says.Back at the house, she's in bed with him.

She asks how he knows so much. He says he's traveled the world and studied."When your new hunter -- and I know you have one -- when he completes his mark, you're going to want to come to me. Because I'm going to be the only one who can help, trust me on that, OK?" Shane says.Elena goes on to her porch to talk to Stefan. She apologizes for stabbing him. He's not mad Damon told her about the cure.She asks why he sent Damon to look for her. "Lately it seems like he's able to get through to you in ways that I can't. You listen to him, you trust him, even when you can't trust me," Stefan says.Elena would love to get her old self back because the girl she's become is darker.Stefan asks if that extends to who she wants. He understands that her feelings for Damon have been magnified since she became a vampire. He says he could understand her feelings for Damon when he was the Ripper. "But I can't do this Elena, not anymore," he says."I know," she says.

Connor returns to his trailer with a head in a pillow case.We cut between him talking to Professor Shane and unpacking the head, which belongs to the hybrid that was guarding him. He tells Shane he met Klaus, but he's annoyed Shane won't give him more answers. They had a deal: Shane will give him answers when his hunter's mark has grown to completion, that's why Shane sent him to Mystic Falls, to kill more vampires and finish it.In his trailer, Connor draws hybrid venom from his severed head.Shane tells Connor not to hurt Bonnie, he needs her for his plan.

Jeremy doesn't remember talking to Connor at Klaus's and realizes he was compelled.Connor texts Stefan, Damon and Tyler that he has hostages at the Grill.Damon, Tyler, Elena and Caroline are ready to go charge into the Grill, but Stefan -- knowing he needs Connor alive for Klaus -- urges them to come up with a plan first. Sheriff Forbes has the street blocked off, calling it a gas leak. Damon wants Bonnie there, too.But Bonnie is with Shane, for "witch therapy." He's made her promise no cell phones to concentrate. He wants to try hypnosis to get her practicing magic again. He thinks she feels guilty for what happened to her Grams and fear is the only thing holding her back. He gives her a taste of what he's talking about by getting her to remove her earring without noticing it.Stefan briefs Klaus, telling him to get the hybrids on board with his plan. Elena sees him on the phone.Damon studies the tunnels under the Grill from Alaric's maps. Stefan calls Elena to tell her who the hostages are.She tells Damon she wants to go in, but he thinks tipping Connor off that she's a vampire is a bad idea. She says she can handle herself, Alaric taught her and she's been training with Stefan.Damon zips over to a nearby crossbow and trains it on her to show her she's not ready. In a flash, she leaps on him, takes it and turns it on him."For someone who doesn't want to be like me, you sure are good at it," he says.In the Grill, Connor pours potions as April freaks out. Jeremy is still angry he was compelled. Connor shows him his werewolf toxin bomb. Connor tells Jeremy he wants to complete his tattoo to find out his story.Stefan rejoins them, telling them the hybrids are going to help. Elena takes note as he says again with certainty that Connor has werewolf venom, wondering how he knows. As they're arguing over their next move, Stefan takes out a dagger and literally stabs Damon in the back, knocking him out with vervane.Stefan tells Elena he doesn't trust Damon to keep Matt and April safe. Elena insists on going with him, but he asks her to stay behind, saying it's the most important thing he's ever asked her to do and to trust him.At Tyler's house, Caroline and Hayley run into each other. It's news to Caroline that Hayley has been staying there. Meanwhile, Tyler and Hayley try to talk Dean, another hybrid, out of following Klaus's direct order to attack from the front of the Grill and not fight back.Tyler tells him he doesn't have to do whatever Klaus says. He dares Tyler to prove it, over Caroline's objections, calling Klaus.At the dig, Klaus has unearthed the sword. Tyler tells Klaus he's not sired to him anymore. Klaus is not concerned, because he threatens to tell Caroline about Tyler's time with Hayley in Appalachia.Stefan calls Connor, offering to tell him about the Brotherhood of the Five.In the pantry, Matt looks for a way out through the floor in the old wine cellar. April is bothered by how familiar Connor seems.From the tunnel, Stefan hears Matt pounding.Klaus's hybrid Dea goes in from the front as Stefan approaches from the tunnel.Jeremy tries to convince Connor that not all vampires are bad, but Connor's not buying it, saying they all turn into killers eventually. When a friend of his was turned, he killed her.The hybrid avoids the trip wire by the front door, but sets of the pressure switch explosion. He gets covered in glass shards and Connor shoots a hole through him as Stefan comes in the pantry through the tunnel. Stefan gives Matt the map of the tunnel on his phone and tells him to take April to Caroline for compulsion.Stefan goes to talk with Connor, who is watching is tattoo grow. Stefan dodges shots behind the bar. Jeremy freezes in place when he realizes he's standing on a pressure switch for a bomb.Back at Alaric's Elena is freaking out after hearing the first explosion. Damon wakes up and they realize Stefan took his ring. Damon puts everything together and realizes Stefan either made a deal with Klaus or he's compelled.Elena wants to go in there, but Damon warns her Connor is dangerous."So am I!" she says.Damon is too weak, so he tells her to use the fact that Connor doesn't know she's a vampire to get close and kill him.Back in the Grill, Stefan tries to reason with Connor. Elena comes in the front door and begs Connor to let Jeremy go. Connor aims at Jeremy, counting down to make Stefan come out.When Connor gets to 2, Stefan stands up. Seeing he's about to fire, Elena tackles Connor, who fires, hitting Jeremy. Jeremy bleeds profusely from his stomach, but is still stuck on the pressure switch. Stefan tackles him off it. Elena wails on Connor but is distracted by the explosion.Connor gets on top of her and is about to stake her when Stefan throws him off.When Elena stands up, Stefan and Connor are gone.As Jeremy heals from his ring, Elena asks why Connor came after him. He tells her about being able to see Connor's hunter's mark because he's like him and being compelled. Elena is livid when she realizes who must have done it.Meanwhile, Stefan marches Connor through the tunnels but they run into Damon, who is ready to kill Connor no matter what.Stefan lets Connor go, telling him to run. Damon and Stefan fight but Damon pins Stefan against a wall and digs his hand into his chest, squeezing Stefan's heart until he talks. He tells Damon about Connor's mark leading to the cure for Elena.As Connor is running away through the tunnels, Elena springs on him. She chomps on his neck and tells him to stay away from her brother. He distracts her for just long enough to grab a stake from his ankle and ram it through her chest.But she's fine."You missed," she says as she snaps his neck, killing him.Back at college, Bonnie tries hypnosis. She thinks it isn't working, but she also didn't notice seven hours have passed.Shane takes out a candle, telling her she can light it and is stronger than the spirits. "You don't have to be afraid of anyone," he tells her.Bonnie tries to light the candle. It doesn't light, but every single other one in the office does.Alone in the woods with blood dripping down her chin, Elena furiously digs a grave for Connor. Stefan and Damon find her.She's angry at Stefan for making a deal with Klaus. Damon tells her it's complicated. She's wracked with guilt over killing someone.Tyler consoles Hayley over Dean's death. Caroline finds him holding onto her. Hayley gives them a minute. Caroline heard Klaus's side of the conversation with Tyler and thinks he cheated in the Appalachians. Tyler explains he'd rather Klaus think that than know the truth: that he and Hayley know how to help hybrids break their bonds to him."If Klaus found out what we're trying to do, he'd kill us all," Tyler says.Matt brings April back to see Jeremy, who can tell she's been compelled. Jeremy gives her his vervane bracelet. When he looks down at his hand, he sees a hunter's mark. He doesn't tell Matt.Back home, Stefan and Damon agree not to tell Elena about the cure they now have no way of finding. Stefan wants to look for the other hunters."Sure, Stefan, since you asked. I'd be happy to go on a suicide mission with you for a potentially non-existent cure. No problem," Damon says.Damon asks Stefan why he wants to cure Elena. "You want to cure her because she's a vampire and she's not cut out to be or because you can't love her if she is one?" Damon asks."I'll always love her, but she's not supposed to be this person, I don't want her to be," Stefan says.Damon is fine with her either way, so if he does it, he's doing it for Stefan.Elena washes the blood off and writes in her diary about losing control and losing herself. She stops when she notices blood dripping. She turns around and follows a trail of blood to her doorway and into the hall. She finds the bathroom walls covered in blood and "Killer" written on the mirror. She slips in a pool of blood but when she gets up, the bathroom is clean again.

1110 A.D.A witch recites an incantation in the forest and when she's finished, she sets down her cauldron of flame and lets the spell travel up the arms and onto the bodies of five (shockingly hairless for the time period) strapping young men. It traces tattoos over their chests. PresentDamon brings Connor's things back to the house to go over them for answers, starting with: What are the Five?Damon gets a call from Sheriff Forbes, they didn't find Connor's remains at the explosion site.After Stefan assures Damon they're not fighting, Damon tells him he's taking Elena to college to learn "snatch, eat, erase." Later, in the woods for "hunter defense class," Elena explains her reasons for going to Stefan. She can't feed on animals or blood bags because they make her sick, Caroline is too good at self control to understand what Elena is going through and Stefan gets weird around that much blood. So it has to be Damon. They're crashing Bonnie's trip to look at colleges. The professor who took over her Gram's classes invited her.Elena assures Stefan that he's the one getting her through this. He warns her it's easy to get caught up in feeding. Rebekah brings Matt keys to a new truck to try to make up for things. "If that's your idea of an apology, you should probably give it to Elena. She's the one you killed," Matt says. Klaus sees the interchange and tells her she's trying too hard. Rebekah is annoyed to see he's still in town. He tells her the Brotherhood of the Five still exists and wants her help. But she's not inclined. Damon, Elena and Bonnie arrive on campus and join a class on witches. The professor knows about ghosts, vampires and dopplegangers. Elena worries she's a ripper. Damon helps her pick someone, the blond pretty girl who's self-absorbed and will be easy to separate from the pack. Back at his house, Klaus has Connor chained up on a rack. Stefan joins them, wanting to know about the Five.Klaus explains: the Brotherhood of the Five was a group of highly skilled vampire hunters from the 12th Century BC. Flash back to Italy, 1114Klaus and Elijah see one of the five in a town square lecturing about vampires and opening a box to reveal one who promptly bursts into flames from the sunlight. Klaus is unconcerned, Rebekah flirts with one. Connor is the first he's seen since then. Rebekah fell in love with one of them and get lots of information on him. Klaus agrees to give Stefan answers if he gets Rebekah not to be mad at him anymore."Trust me when I say that hunter in there is the answer to all your prayers," Klaus says. At the Grill, Matt finds April in a booth waiting for Rebekah. He tells Rebekah he's keeping the truck. April oogles Matt, but Rebekah calls dibs. Stefan joins the women and compels April to forget the conversation he's about to have."Klaus wants me to fake peace with you so you'll talk about the Five," Stefan says.She says he'll just betray Stefan, so Stefan offers to smooth things over with Matt and give her a clean slate. On campus, Elena approaches the blond Damon picked out. Elena compels her not to scream and is about to bite down when she sees a picture of the girl's little sister on her cell phone and loses her nerve.Damon is annoyed until Bonnie gives them a flyer for a Halloween frat party tonight. Rebekah joins Klaus and Stefan for dinner.She wants an apology from him for breaking her neck, which he did after she wrecked his Elena blood. He apologizes. Flash back to 1114Alexander the hunter dines with Rebeka, Elijah and Klaus, not suspecting anything because it was daylight and they were protected by their rings."We are but five men bound by fire and the last breath of a dying witch to a single cause: the destruction of all vampires," Alexander says.Alexander says they have a weapon that no vampire can survive. PresentKlaus explains the unseen tattoo is a map to the weapon. He has Jeremy brought in. Stefan tries to leap to his aid, but Klaus removes Jeremy's ring. On campus, Damon shows up as Jack the Ripper with Elena and Bonnie as his victims. Professor Shane is there and Bonnie goes to talk to him. Elena watches a frat guy roofies a girl and she has her target. She takes him into the other room and compels him, then chomps down. Damon has to remind her to pull back, but she feels good."I want more," she whispers in his ear. Jeremy sketches Connor's tattoo. Connor explains meeting a guy years ago who was a hunter and had the tattoo. He lost track of him and then one day the tattoo showed up on him, first in pieces and then more with each vampire he killed. 1114 ADRebekah breaks off making out with Alexander the hunter to ask about his tattoo. He says the sword is the key to reading it.She agrees to leave town and follow the map with him when he goes. He tells her about a special dagger he has for "a special kind of vampire." He goes back to kissing her, then stabs her with it. In the present, Klaus explains at the Brotherhood came after all of them in their sleep that night. 1114 ADRebekah comes back to life to see Klaus covered in blood and Alexander skewered on the wall. PresentRebekah explains what Alexander told her the weapon was to convince her to leave town: He said there was a cure. Stefan doesn't believe them.Klaus explains that when he killed the Brotherhood that night, the tattoos disappeared so they couldn't look for the cure. Rebekah wants nothing to do with it and concludes Klaus only wants the cure for Elena to make hybrids. He brought Stefan in because he knew he'd want to save her, too. Klaus needs Stefan to get information on the sword to decipher the map from Rebekah. On campus, Professor Shane shows Bonnie some of the things he has of her grandmother's. He asks if she practices.She tells him she doesn't any more because she lost control and there were consequences.He tells her there are other ways to practice. At the party, Damon and Elena dance with unsuspecting college kids, comp down and don't even wipe off the blood from their faces because it's Halloween.Bonnie comes back to the party and her look of judgment snaps Elena out of her blood bliss. Klaus checks on Jeremy's drawing of the tattoo. He knows it's incomplete, so Jeremy mentions what Connor said about it spreading with every vampire he kills. Klaus leaves one of his hybrids to guard Connor.Connor chomps on the kid's ear, biting out his ear barbell. Now he has something to pick his locks with. Back on campus, Elena feels bad for going through everything with Damon instead of Stefan. Damon says that what makes him different from Stefan the ripper is that he can revel in feeding on people and make it fun, as it should be for vampires. Rebekah comes over to Stefan's after he calls. She admits she wanted the cure back then. Stefan wants it for Elena to save her before she kills someone and turns off her humanity. He worries she'd never get it back. Rebekah envies the love they have for each other. Alexander promised to marry her, they even picked out a church."I know you want my help Stefan, but I just can't do anything that lets my brother get what he wants," she says. He answers her question, if he could have children with Elena and grow old with her, he'd take the cure.Rebekah says that even after everything, she buried Alexander in the place where they were to be married. After she says it, she realizes what she's said. It's what Stefan wanted to know. She buried him with his sword.Klaus joins them, carrying a dagger that he dips in something. She tells him she'd rather live her life than his, the man who no one loves. Stefan says he's sorry, but clearly isn't going to stop Klaus.Klaus stabs his sister. Klaus hurries to catch a plane to get the sword. He tells Stefan to put Rebekah's body somewhere no one will ever find it and compel Jeremy to forget everything. He gives Stefan Jeremy's ring back.Klaus reminds him no one, not even Elena and Damon, can know about the cure. "If this gets out it could mean all our deaths," Klaus says."It's just you and me in this, Stefan. Some secrets are stronger than family." Damon brings Elena home, chastened. She tells him she believes his version of what a vampire should be, but it scares her."You don't want to be like me," Damon says. Stefan opens Elena's front door, explaining he had a few things to talk to Jeremy about. He says he has no news on Connor. Elena tells him she learned out to feed but it was awful because she caught up in it. "I can't live like this. I'm feeling things that I don't want to feel. I'm becoming someone that I don't want to be. I don't think I'm going to survive this," she says."Yes you will, I promise. You just have to hold on," Stefan says. Nate the hybrid calls for reinforcements for Connor. But as soon as he gets off the phone, Connor is free and he's choking him out with a barbed chain. He squeezes Nate's head clean off and his tattoo spreads into a pentagram.Cut back to campus, where the same symbol hangs on Shane's wall. Connor walks in to his office."Shouldn't you be in Mystic Falls killing vampires?" Shane asks."Why the hell did you send me there?" Connor asks.

Tyler (Michael Trevino) sleeps in his hospital room. The guard posted outside the door goes to investigate a noise in the hall, and gets jumped by Connor the hunter.Tyler hides in his room and attacks Connor when he comes in, but Connor quickly subdues him with an injection of a paralytic. He draws a vial of werewolf venom from Tyler's gums and leaves. Back in his trailer, Connor conducts a home science experiment. He has files on Elena (Nina Dobrev) and Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen). At the Salvatores, Stefan (Paul Wesley) plans to take Elena out to distract her from the difficulties of her transformation. Damon (Ian Somerhalder) plans to find Connor, take Tyler's werewolf venom, and kill the hunter. Then he'll leave town, per his agreement with Stefan. Whoever Elena didn't chose would do just that. Stefan thinks he's pouting. Elena being turned changes things. Damon's mind is made up. Elena meets up with Matt (Zach Roerig) at their old make-out spot to feed off him. It's the only thing she can keep down. She pulls away early, because she's afraid she couldn't stop if she kept going. Walking into high school they see a note enforcing a 10p.m. town curfew. Tyler and Carol (Susan Walters) come home, where she's arranged for a pair of Klaus's hybrids to watch over Tyler. Klaus (Joseph Morgan) is back, not wanting to risk losing one of his hybrids since Elena has turned. He can't make more. In school, Elena and Stefan get ready for what used to be Alaric's class. Rebekah (Claire Holt) saunters in, announcing her anti-curfew party. She invites Elena, then taunts her, mentioning how she killed Alaric. Elena throws a pencil at her. Rebekah catches it easily and whips it back at Elena, where it spikes her in the shoulder. In the hallway, Elena is enraged over Rebekah, but quickly distracted when she sees the hunter in the hallway. She goes to the bathroom and cleans up. A girl named Heather comes in holding her neck. Elena realizes she's compelled. Rebekah follows, offering Heather to Elena. She tries to resist. Rebekah smears Heather's blood on Elena's face. She fights back against her vampire urges. They leave. Connor pulls Jeremy out of class and gives him the file on him. He wants to know how Jeremy could see his tattoo, which is invisible to everyone but hunters or people who could be. He tells Jeremy to find him a vampire and meet him at his trailer. Meanwhile, Damon inspects Connor's trailer and quickly sets off booby traps. An arrow goes through his chest.He realizes he can't pull it out because it's tied to something which looks like it might explode. Outside school, Elena is angry enough to want to kill Rebekah. Stefan suggests they skip the rest of the day, then go to Rebekah's party and show her they can't be intimidated. Elena has to go home and change.Stefan explains what Elena is going through to Caroline (Candice Accola). Elena is turning all her feelings into rage because it makes her feel like she has purpose. She has to confront it and channel it before she can let go. Tyler hangs out at home when a werewolf named Haley (Phoebe tonkin) strolls in. She helped him break the sire bond down in Florida and found him when someone from her old pack mentioned he was guarding a guy named Tyler. They're clearly close. Meredith (Paul Wesley's wife) comes to help Damon out of his skewered-on-a-booby-trapped-arrow predicament. He didn't call Stefan because he's proud and stubborn. He wants her to cut the arrow out. While she works, he looks at Pastor Young's note to April, including the part about a "greater evil" coming. Meredith thinks Damon is doing a good job pretending like his heart isn't broken. At school, Rebekah invites Matt to her party, even though she killed Alaric and nearly got Matt killed. He ignores her. Connor confronts Matt in the hall and rips off his bandage, to reveal Elena's bite marks. He holds a knife to Matt's throat and demands he tell him which one of his friends is a vampire. Matt tells him Rebekah. Connor knocks him out. Damon comes home to find Elena rooting through his things. She says she's looking for bourbon to get through Rebekah's party. He busts her for wanting the last white oak stake.Damon heard Connor was at school from Jeremy. Elena doesn't want Jeremy involved, but Damon thinks he could be useful. Meanwhile, Jeremy goes to meet Connor at his trailer. He didn't bring a vampire, but he tells him Meredith has a deal to get vampire blood. Connor says he has Rebekah's party covered. As long as they're drinking, they'll be dead by sundown. Rebekah's party is packed with kids drinking. Stefan suggests Elena drink to take the edge off her rage. Elena goes to talk to April. Caroline surprises Tyler at home. She can't believe Klaus has him kept at home. In the study, Klaus introduces himself to Haley, who has only heard horrible things about him. Klaus hears Tyler get rid of Caroline at the door and realizes why he's never heard about hot, young Hailey. Elena offers April some of her beer. She says her dad would have smelled a gas leak and wonders if maybe it wasn't an accident. April leaves when Rebekah shows up.She takes Elena's beer and drinks from it. Elena's skin starts to burn. She realizes Rebekah has lifted her ring. Elena runs for cover in the corner as Rebekah tosses her ring into the disposal and turns it on and leaves. Elena runs to the disposal and fishes it out, letting her skin singe until she's able to get it back on. She runs to her bag and takes out the white oak stake. Stefan finds her and says he won't stop her, but after she kills Rebekah, tens of thousands of vampires from her bloodline all over the world will start to die."Rage is a really powerful feelings, but guilt, take it from me, it'll destroy you," he says.Instead, he invites her to get on his motorcycle and leave. Rebekah gets in one last jab at Elena on her way out. Elena executes a perfect gymnast's keg stand before she and Stefan leave. Rebekah watches them leave but her vision starts to go blurry. She wobbles inside as her skin flushes. Back at Tyler's, Hailey is gone. Klaus guesses their history: Tyler went to the Appalachians to break his sire bond and met a pack of werewolves, including Haley. Sexual tension ran high and inhibitions ran low. Tyler shuts him up. Klaus seems to be on to something. Damon calls for Tyler. Klaus answers. Klaus won't let Tyler help Damon kill Connor, but Klaus is up for it. Stefan and Elena go for a ride in the country. She gets bold and stands up on the back of his bike, enjoying the freedom. At the hospital, Jeremy points Meredith out to Connor as she goes into the supply room. Connor follows. He finds Damon there instead. Connor walks toward Damon and is hit in the arm by an arrow, then another. The arrows are attached to Connor's own booby trap bomb. He can't reach his gun. Klaus steps out and says hello. Elena and Stefan enjoy rolling around in bed with vampire urges. All of a sudden she pictures Damon and throws Stefan off her. Elena starts to feel sick. Stefan realizes Damon said Connor has werewolf venom. At her party, Rebekah is still feeling week. Since whatever it is isn't the white oak stake, it can't kill her. Matt joins her and is in a sharing mood. "The truth is Rebekah, I think you're amazing. You've had a thousand years to learn, to grow, and to start fresh. And somehow, you've managed to throw it all away. Now you're alone, you're compelling your friends, your brother hates you. You whine about not finding love, the reason you don't find love is because you don't deserve it," he says. Rebekah gets angry and quickly rips Matt's heart out. She holds his quivering heart a moment. When she drops it, Matt's gone. Back with Connor, Damon and Klaus want info. Damon mentions the disappearing tattoo. Klaus is interested. "There's more to you than meets the eye, isn't there?" Klaus asks.Connor tries to stake Klaus. Klaus catches his arm, telling him he's faster than your average vampire. Klaus examines the carving on Connor's stake and realizes he's "one of the five." Connor starts to pull on the trip wire attached to the arrow in his arm, saying he's faster than your average hunter. Damon realizes what's about to happen and dives into the hall. The supply room explodes. With Elena sick in bed, Stefan calls Klaus but can't reach him. Elena sees Damon instead of Stefan and asks why he's seeing him. "Because you're a vampire now and part of you knows you're a lot more like me than you are like him," hallucination Damon says. Klaus arrives. He's the only one who can heal Elena, and with what he's just learned, he still wants to. He feeds Elena his blood. Rebekah wakes up in her bedroom to see April picking up Solo cups. "Picking up trash is a hell of a lot better than sitting home alone thinking about the family you no longer have," she explains.Rebekah offers to help her look into the fire at the farmhouse. April doesn't see how she couldn't help. Damon and Carol survey the blown-up supply room, which Damon says has bits of Connor inside. Carol plans to cancel the curfew.Jeremy points out to Damon how helpful he was. Meredith is annoyed they blew something up near medically fragile patients. Damon suggests she buy him a going-out-of-town drink. She doesn't believe for a minute he'll leave. "I'm not your new partner in vampire crime. Fix things with Stefan and Elena, don't let your pride leave you all alone," she says. Stefan waits for Caroline at his house. He wants Elena to be able to enjoy becoming a vampire, but he's worried if he joins in, he risks becoming the Ripper. "I love her and I don't want to hold her back," he says. "But you don't know how to be around her and still resist that urge," Caroline says. Stefan can't ask Damon right now. He thinks Caroline can help since she's good at being a vampire. She promises to help him avoid getting too close to the edge. Matt finds Elena at home. He wouldn't have told Connor about Rebekah if he'd known Elena was going to her party. He rolls up his sleeve for her as she tells him about the rage's feeling driven by hunger. She chomps down on his wrist but doesn't stop. He tells her it hurts. She doesn't listen. She's showing no signs of stopping when Damon comes in and pulls her off. He compels Matt to forget and tells Elena there's nothing for her to be ashamed of. She just has to learn how to be a vampire. He's going to each her. Connor wakes up in his trailer with Klaus standing over him. "Congratulations, you just became worth more to me alive than dead," Klaus says.Connor doesn't know what "one of the five" means. Klaus tells him it makes him the most well-protected vampire hunter in town.

Memorial
Damon (Ian Somerhalder) tries to...
more
Damon (Ian Somerhalder) tries to convince Stefan (Paul Wesley) his plan to start Elena (Nina Dobrev) on only animal blood is a bad one. Stefan reminds him how many vampires killed at least one person while they were learning. Damon thinks there's more risk if she starts on animals and isn't satisfied. Elena's compassion is her Achilles' heel and it's heightened right now, Stefan thinks one human kill would put her over the edge. "She can't learn to control the blood lust if she never experiences the blood lust," Damon says. Stefan takes her to the woods and traps a deer for her. She feeds and lets it go. Damon makes his case to Elena. "Vampires eat people. You're going to be miserable," he says. Stefan takes Elena out into the woods to try to teach her how to be a vampire. She's distracted by how good it feels when he touches her. They start making out ferociously. She stops suddenly and runs away. She throws up the deer blood. A man explores the crime scene where Pastor Young blew himself and other members of the Council up. He finds a note left protected inside the oven. At the Grille, Liz (Marguerite MacIntyre) accuses Damon of the crime. He assures her he always takes credit for his kills. The man who inspected the scene introduces himself to Liz. He's Connor Jordan, a "private contractor." Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) and Matt (Zach Roerig) unload candles for the memorial at school. Matt points out fire is an odd choice to remember people who exploded. They're interrupted by April, who Elena used to babysit for. Pastor Young was her dad. She's been away at boarding school. Elena calls Caroline (Candice Accola) and leaves a message. She's been having "adjustment issues." At the cabin with Stefan, he brings her a bottle of champagne to celebrate her first feed, even though it was gross. She tells him it made her sick. He replies it took him a month to be able to stomach it. Damon calls. Elena meets him at the Grille and asks if he blew up the Council. Assured he didn't, she asks for his help feeding. He takes her to the bathroom and bites his hand open, telling her not to mention it to Stefan because "blood sharing" is kind of personal.She chomps down. He loves it. Tyler and Caroline are about to engage in "grief sex" when the doorbell rings. Connor invites himself in to talk with Carol (Susan Walters), asking why she wasn't at the Council meeting. Tyler comes down and shakes Connor's gloved hand when he offers it. He recoils in pain. Connor promptly takes out his gun and shoots Tyler several times in the chest.Caroline races downstairs as Connor reloads. Carol screams at Tyler to run. He leaps out a window. At the Salvatore house, Stefan pulls wooden bullets out of Tyler. The bullets are specially shaped. If Tyler were a normal vampire, he'd be dead. The bullets have etching on them. They burn when Stefan touches them. Elena helps lay out programs at the memorial service. She's having a hard time holding back tears. She goes to talk to April. She's worried what the town thinks of her dad. Elena takes April's hand, but the throbbing in April's veins makes Elena sick. Elena runs to the bathroom and throws up blood all over the place and herself. Stefan goes to Bonnie's house. She's still feeling guilty about her Grams. She hasn't been able to do any spells without reliving what happened.He shows her the bullets. The writing isn't magical. He tells her about the new vampire hunter in town. Elena calls Stefan for help. Connor knocks on the bathroom door and tries to get in as Elena furiously wipes up blood.Damon brings Elena a change of clothes as Connor waits outside. Connor tries to shake Damon's hand, but he proclaims himself a germaphobe. Connor says he's in "environmental clean-up." Elena finishes changing. She and Damon go upstairs. Connor finds April preparing her remarks for the funeral in the church balcony. He walks up to her and stakes her in the stomach. Damon gives Elena a bag of blood but she can't keep it down either. They don't know what's wrong with her. He wonders if it's her doppelganger blood. He says she'll be fine if she just drinks from the vein. She doesn't want to risk it. Stefan sees Damon putting the blood bag away. Damon tells him Elena hasn't been able to keep blood down for days, even his. Stefan is immediately angry and jealous. Elena goes in for the service, looking pasty and weak. Tyler is there, determined not to be afraid of the hunter. Up in the balcony, Connor loads his rifle with April tied up on the ground next to him, bleeding. Carol asks April to come up and speak, and When she doesn't, Elena wobbles up instead. As she starts to speak, all the vampires in the audience begin to smell April's blood dripping down from the balcony. "It's a trap, nobody move," Damon says as Connor peers through his rifle scope and waits to see who turns around. Up on the stage, Elena smells the blood and struggles to keep it together. Damon goes to get her and walks her back to the pews. The service continues. Elena has a hard time keeping it together. Damon wants to go rip Connor's head off, but Stefan quietly pleads that he'll expose them all. Elena warns she's about to lose it. Damon's about to go, when Matt tells Elena to feed from him. She turns and sinks her head into Matt's shoulder, biting down. Connor watches through his scope but can't tell what's happening. Elena pulls back, thanking Matt. As the entire church sings, Tyler sees what's happening and interrupts on stage to talk about Pastor Young. He mentions he was his coach when he was young. "He was the one who taught me how important it is to be part of a team, part of a community, of giving yourself up for the sake of -- " Connor shoots him.Everyone runs. Up on the stage, Caroline pulls the stake Connor fired out of Tyler, who is fine. Stefan goes to help Damon with Connor. Carol Lockwood realizes she has to call an ambulance even if Tyler is fine, the whole town just watched him get shot. Outside, Connor's in his truck when Damon rips the door off. Damon pulls him out and Connor shoots him multiple times, Damon keeps attacking, Connor get the better of him and tries to stake him, but hears Stefan coming and gets in his truck and speeds off. Stefan punches Damon for helping Elena. Back in the church, Elena finds bleeding April in the balcony. At the sight of all her blood, Elena starts to vamp out and prepares to feed. But Caroline swoops in and stops her, explaining that she'll kill her if she does. Instead, Caroline feeds April her blood to heal her. Then she turns to Elena and tells her to help April forget. Elena has to learn how. She tells April that everything will be OK and she'll help. She tells April she watched the service in the balcony to grieve alone. At the Grille, Connor asks Matt about the bandage on his neck. He says his girlfriend went a little overboard. Jeremy compliments Connor on his sleeve tattoo -- that only Jeremy can see. Connor returns to his RV and reads the note Pastor Young left for April, saying his sacrifice was necessary and his death was the first in a war ahead. Back at the Salvatore's house, Stefan gives Elena Scotch to help with the cravings. Stefan is mad at Elena for not telling him she's struggling and for turning to Damon. She gets upset and rants about how her life is a parade of funerals and she's overwhelmed by all the grief. Stefan assembles a make-up funeral with Damon, Bonnie, Jeremy, Matt, Elena and Caroline, saying they need to make time to grieve. Stefan lights his lantern for his uncle Zach, Alexi and Alaric. Matt lights his for Vicky. Caroline's is for her dad and Tyler's. Jeremy's is for Vicky, Anna, Jenna, Alaric and their parents. Damon bails. Bonnie lights hers for her grandmother.Elena's is for her mom, dad, Jenna and everyone that the town has lost, "and for me, I guess."They release their lanterns into the sky. Damon drinks in the graveyard alone and mocks the idea of the lanterns and pretending that Elena isn't going to end up "like the rest of us murderous vampires." He's talking to Alaric's grave. He knows Alaric would say it makes them feel better and that's Ok.Damon says it's pointless because all that's left when someone dies is a hole in your life. Alaric sits there and listens. Damon tells him he owes him big for sticking around."I miss you too, buddy," Alaric says as Damon walks off.

Growing Pains

more
Elena (Nina Dobrev) wakes up to loud noises, lawn mowers, bells, birds, everything crashing in on her. She's home in bed with Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Damon (Ian Somerhalder) watching over her.Stefan tells her she was in an accident. Matt is fine. They tell her Meredith (Torrey DeVitto) healed her with vampire blood earlier. She had it in her system when she and Matt (Zach Roerig) crashed.She realizes what this means."Am I dead?" she asks. Stefan tells her Bonnie (Kat Graham) is looking for a loophole before she has to feed or die in 24 hours. She doesn't want to be a vampire."Your choice Elena, as always," Damon says sarcastically. Down in the kitchen, Damon questions Stefan's choice to save Matt first. Upstairs, Elena's gums start to ache. Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) checks on her, remembering how bad the transformation was for Vicki. Elena is tense and distracted. "I need my sister, not another one of them," Jeremy says.The light bulb from a lamp sizzles in Elena's brain. She grabs it and breaks it with her bare hands. Bonnie stands over the dead-for-now body of Klaus (Joseph Morgan) in his coffin. His current vessel, Tyler (Michael Trevino), appears. He wants her to put him back in his body. She points out he needs Elena human to have an endless blood supply to make his hybrids. That's her priority. He reminds her to tell no one what's going on. At the hospital, Pastor Young (Michael Reilly Burke) swoops in on orders from the Council. He tells Meredith that Alaric outed her. They're locking down the blood supply. Caroline (Candice Accola) hides out from the Council in the hospital. Matt blames himself for Elena. Caroline hides as one of the Council goons checks Matt's room. Pastor Young and his squad intercept Sheriff Forbes, telling her she's no longer on the job. They've confiscated the town's supply of vervane, including from the Salvatores. Liz (Marguerite MacIntyre) calls Caroline as she's walking out of her house. Before she makes it off the step, one of the Council goons grabs her and sticks a needle in her throat. At home, Elena tries a sandwich. It tastes disgusting. She can't stop thinking about blood. She assures Stefan he did the right thing. She starts laughing and can't stop. Her emotions are out of control. Elena goes up to her bedroom and sees a scene with her and Damon play out in front of her, the one where he returns her necklace and tells her he loves her and doesn't deserve her, but Stefan does. He compels her to forget. She has the memory back, along with the necklace. At Klaus' mansion, Damon visits Rebekah (Claire Holt). He rushes at her with a stake. She fights him off. Wooden bullets come in from the window, hitting Rebekah. She's skewered by an arrow. At home, Elena comes downstairs to see Pastor Young and his guys holding Stefan at gun point. Carol (Susan Walters) calls her son, Tyler (currently Klaus). She wants to make sure he wasn't with Caroline. She tells him the Council got her. Rebekah comes to in the back of a van, strapped down with vervane ropes next to Caroline, who starts to explain the Council grabbed them. Suddenly, the van they're traveling in is hit and flips over. Tyler (Klaus) rips the back door off the van and frees Caroline, who is thrilled to see he's alive. He leaves Rebekah, calling her "little sister." Liz regroups with Damon and Meredith. She's locked out of her office by the Council. Liz knows Caroline is free. She doesn't know where. Matt visits. Damon grabs him, angry he's alive instead of Elena. Pastor Young keeps Elena at a safe house. She struggles to keep it together. He's planning to hold her until Damon comes looking for her, and hold Rebekah until her siblings come. He thinks she'll turn over the white oak stake. They'll exterminate the entire vampire race for good. He serves Elena a thick juicy steak. She's transfixed by his jugular vein. The screaming tea kettle sends her running from the house. The sun stops her long enough for a Council member to knock her out. Out in the woods, Caroline is glad to see Tyler. She helps him take his clothes off. He calls her "love" as they make-out. She pauses, putting it together. He's Klaus. She's grossed out and wants Tyler back. Bonnie makes a plea to the witches to save Elena. They aren't listening. Bonnie tells Jeremy about her back-up plan: to go to the other side and bring Elena back herself. She can stop her heart like she did his and Klaus', using her "new source of power," dark magic. Jeremy is not a fan of the plan. Damon tries to figure out where Pastor Young is holding Stefan and Elena. Matt mentions the pastor has a cattle ranch with steel pens. Elena wakes up in a pen. Stefan and Rebekah are locked up nearby. Elena has about three hours to feed or she dies. Bonnie tries another spell. Jeremy watches with horror. She gets a nose bleed but keeps going as her veins turn black. She keels over. Bonnie appears in the pen with Elena, who is growing weaker. Bonnie takes Elena's hand, guiding her to her feet. Elena can't see her but can feel something happening. Bonnie tells her she's going home, but her grandmother (Jasmine Guy) appears and tells her stay away from dark magic. "This magic is dark, Bonnie. It is not nature's plan. Touch it again and the spirits will unleash their anger in ways that will make you suffer. Stay away! Go!" her grandmother runs her off. Bonnie wakes up back with Jeremy, having failed. In the cattle pen, Elena can feel she's dying. Stefan calls for someone to come in. He tells the Council member who comes that she's innocent. He shoots Stefan twice. Klaus/Tyler and Caroline join Bonnie and Jeremy. Bonnie tells Klausler she angered the spirits using dark magic and can't do it again. That's not enough for Klausler, who starts ripping Tyler's heart out of his own chest, threatening to jump into someone else.Bonnie relents. In his pen, Stefan digs the wooden bullets out of his body. He thinks Damon was right. She should have fed this morning. She appreciates he had hope.He tells her he loves her.She tells him she was on the bridge because she had to choose and picked him, she was going to him. "No matter what happened, it's the best choice I ever made," she tells him. Rebekah watches the two crying lovers from her pen across the way and is moved. Damon and Matt pull up to Pastor Young's house at night. "So what, we just storm the place with zero weapons?" Matt says."Nah, we don't need weapons. Just bait," Damon says. Then he chomps down on Matt's neck. Damon taunts Pastor Young to come out. He does, and sees Matt bleeding and holding his neck. He refuses to come out. Someone shoots Damon in the shoulder. He falls to the ground. Bonnie recites the black magic spell to transfer Klaus. Tyler returns to his body long enough to see Caroline, and crumple to the floor. Bonnie's grandmother appears again before her, telling her she was warned. Something makes her grasp onto Bonnie's hands and not let go. The black veins of black magic run through Bonnie and into her grandmother's spirit. "You've made your choice, now the spirits are taking it out on me," Gram says. Bonnie is powerless to stop it. She watches as her grandmother is taken away by dark spirits. She breaks free from the spell and freaks out, wondering what she's just done. Back in the holding pen, two members of the Council come in. Rebekah signals Stefan. They prepare to bring Damon in. Rebekah calls for one of them, offering bribes. He approaches Rebekah's pen. She bares her teeth and rushes the bars. He backs up to Stefan's pen. Stefan grabs him and bashes his head against the bars until he falls dead, his blood pooling on the floor. He flings the body in front of Elena. She reaches through the bars toward the pooling blood. She's able to reach just enough for a taste. Outside, Council members approach a fallen Damon to put him in captivity. He pops up, and quickly dispatches them. He kicks Matt as he lays on the ground. "Go ahead, you can't possibly hate me more than I hate myself," Matt says."Oh yes, I can. It should have been you," Damon says. He steps on Matt and seems prepared to finish him when someone runs at him and throws him off -- it's Elena, in full vampire mode. Matt stumbles into the pen. Stefan starts to help him. Matt thinks it's his fault Elena's a vampire. Stefan says he wasn't his first choice to save, but now he's alive he needs to earn it. Elena confronts Damon, who admits he was ready to kill Matt."It was my choice to save him, why aren't you seeing that?" Elena says."It's a little hard to keep track of all of your choices lately, Elena," he tells her. She's remembering everything he ever compelled her to forget, including they met first. She tells him to be angry with her if he doesn't like her choice.He tells her he would have saved her if he'd been on the bridge, no question, because he wanted her to have the normal life she wanted. Rebekah comes home to find Klaus packing up bags of Elena blood. She's furious he saved Caroline in the van over her and seems to care more about his hybrids than her, his real family. She grabs his bags of blood, reminding him she's the one who always stood by him. She squeezes his bags onto the floor.He attacks her, telling her they're not family from here on. He snaps her neck. Elena and Stefan wait for the sun to rise. Now the Council knows who they are, everything's about to change."Yea, I'm sure Damon has a revenge plan cooked up," Stefan says. He wants to reassure her. She won't feel pain or crave blood, but she will."It'll be the worst thing that you've ever lived through," he says."But I'll get to live. I'll be a sister and a friend, and I'll be with you, forever. If I want," she says.She kisses him. "I'm going to get through this, just like we get through everything. One day at a time," she says.As the sun starts to come up, she says they should get inside. He gives her the daylight ring Bonnie made for her yesterday, just in case. Pastor Young tears the gas line on his oven and addresses the Council. He locks the door as he addresses the group."Fear not, because I have been chosen to lead us in a movement. Here me loved ones, soon you'll be free to pass through the gates and we'll all reunite in eternity," he says. He takes a lighter out of his pocket. They start to get nervous."We are the beginning," he says, as he flicks the lighter. The house explodes.

Elena wakes up in the morning and rocks out to Pink. She puts on her cheerleader outfit and goes downstairs to breakfast -- Jenna and her mom are there. It's sophomore year.She wakes up in the hospital. Meredith tells Jeremy that Elena is fine, she just has a slight concussion. Jeremy calls the Salvatores on the road. They can't believe Jeremy took her to the hospital when all the originals are looking to kill her to stop Alaric. One of them has to go back; the other has to deal with Klaus's desiccated body. Meredith returns to her office to find Alaric waiting for her. He takes her vials of vampire blood and dumps them out. He's reporting her to the medical board and Sheriff Forbes and Mayor Lockwood have been relieved of their duties. He wants Elena released into his custody. He goes to her room but finds she's gone. Caroline, Matt and Tyler bring Elena home. Elena remembers sophomore year when she was with Matt. Bonnie has a bad feeling about the bonfire tonight. Jenna's in town and Elena's parents want to do family night.Matt tells her he loves her and Bonnie notices she doesn't say it back. She tells Elena not to string him along. Elena wakes up to Matt sitting watch. Tyler and Caroline got calls from their moms. Elena apologizes to him for stringing him along and says she can't do the same thing to Damon and Stefan.Stefan comes in. Jeremy goes to pick up food at the Grille. Alaric finds him. Matt questions the wisdom of not getting Elena out of town, but Stefan is letting her decide what she wants to do. Elena goes to the door -- Elijah is there. At the Grille, Alaric asks Jeremy where Klaus' body is. Alaric wants Jeremy's help to find him and kill him to get rid of vampires. Once he's done, Alaric suggests they can put a spell on him so that Elena will be able to live out the rest of her life. The stake he has is the only thing that can kill them. Elijah proposes he get the stake and his family will scatter for the rest of her life, prompting Alaric to follow them. He also wants Klaus' body and gives her his word he won't revive him within her or her children's lifetimes.They debate whether to trust him. Damon weighs in via speakerphone, firmly against the deal. Stefan defers to Elena.Elijah just wants his brother back. Elena agrees. Matt and Caroline go to the Lockwoods where their moms tell them Alaric outed them to the council. They want them to run. Jeremy tells Matt about Alaric's proposal. Jeremy doesn't know where Klaus' body is, but Matt does. Jeremy calls Alaric and tells him Damon's taking him to bury him in the woods. Jeremy gets off the phone and we see everyone is in the room with him. He reports that Alaric bought it. Tyler thinks they should go and Caroline is willing to run with him, but she wants to help their friends first. They make plans to meet in two hours. Damon meets up with Bonnie, irked that Elena sold their souls to the originals. "You know what else was her call? Everything bad, ever," he says. Damon has him in a coffin in a storage facility. Bonnie's there to put a spell on him so Alaric can't find him with a witch. Bonnie asks for a moment alone with him. Klaus is conscious, but can't talk. She hates him for turning almost everyone she knows. Elena worries about Jeremy and Stefan assures her he'll be fine. Elena starts to say something else, but tells him they can talk later. He thinks about it then goes back and kisses her. "That's just in case there is no 'later,'" he says. Damon hangs out with the body, waiting for Rebekah to come get him. Caroline and Elijah are in place; Jeremy's going to lead Alaric to them.Damon can't believe Stefan let Elena decide. Damon hears someone coming and thinks it's Rebekah. But instead Alaric grabs him around the throat. "You'd be surprised how competent law enforcement is when it isn't corrupted by vampires," he says. He asks where Klaus is. Damon wishes him luck finding him in the thousands of storage lockers. Alaric snaps Damon's neck. Matt brings Elena tea. It tastes funny, he blames it on honey."So, Stefan?" Matt says. Elena tells Matt, for the first time, that Stefan saved her life when her parents' car went over the bridge. Being with Stefan helped her sort through everything after they died. She says you should love the person who makes you glad to be alive, but when she's with Damon, he consumes her. She doesn't want to chose one and lose the other. She wishes her mom was there to give her advice. Back to sophomore year, Elena calls home for a ride home from the bonfire. She tells her mom about getting in a fight with Matt because he brought up marriage and college. She doesn't want to lose Matt by being honest about her feelings, but her mom says she'd be setting him free. Elena wakes up in a moving car. Matt drugged her and is taking her out of town. Alaric goes searching through storage lockers. Rebekah arrives. She goes walking among the storage lockers calling for Damon. Suddenly a hand clamps around her mouth. Damon shushes her. Alaric comes to the 1020 locker the coffin was in. He opens it. The coffin isn't there. Rebekah and Damon wheel the coffin out but don't get far before they fun into Alaric. He grabs Rebekah and slams her face off a car. She goes down. Damon attacks but he kicks him to the ground. With Rebekah and Damon both down for the count, Alaric opens Klaus' coffin. He stakes Klaus. Damon holds Rebekah back as she screams. Klaus bursts into flames. Damon tells her to run. He tries to take on Alaric, but Alaric swats him away. Later, Damon calls Stefan. They both feel OK. They figure they have about an hour if Klaus was telling the truth. Stefan says an hour isn't long enough for Damon to make it back to Mystic Falls -- to see Elena. He thinks she made her choice. Jeremy confesses that Elena isn't in Mystic Falls. Elijah and Caroline show up. Matt gets a call about the news. Elena wants to go back, but Matt tells her Damon isn't with them. She has to pick which way to go. Elena calls Damon, who still feels fine. She tells him Matt's taking her home -- to Stefan, Tyler and Caroline. Damon asks her who she'd pick between him and Stefan. She loves Stefan and whatever she feels for Damon, she can't change how she feels about Stefan. She says maybe if she'd met Damon first.... She has to let Damon go, but he'll be fine and see him soon. Damon turns around and sees Alaric standing there. He calmly says good-bye to her.Alaric punches him. Caroline races to the cellar and meets Tyler. She's sobbing and crying and breaks the news to him about Klaus. He tells she'll be fine and to tell his mother that he left town like he was supposed to. He's holding on to her as he starts coughing and is gripped with pain. Caroline feels fine. He wants her to leave so she doesn't see him die, he starts to turn into a werewolf and runs her off. Elena gets the call about Tyler. Matt takes it hard.Rebekah meets Elijah in the woods. Rebekah is sure that Klaus turned that bloodline, so they don't understand how everyone else is still alive. Bonnie goes down to the cellar looking for someone. Tyler walks out, fine. "I must say you really did that spell brilliantly, I didn't think you had it in you," he says."I did it to save my friends and my mother, Klaus," she says. (Klaus!) Rebekah calls Stefan, since Klaus is dead, their deal is off. She doesn't want to keep running. The only way to stop Alaric is for Elena to die. Cut to Elena and Matt driving back into town over the Wickery Bridge. Rebekah stands in their path. Matt serves to avoid her and they go off the bridge into the river.

Alaric thinks his friendship with Damon made him weak. Damon remembers that same bonfire night, seeing Elena on the phone. He goes over and talks to her, thinking she's Katherine.She tells him she got into a fight with her boyfriend over the future. He says she knows what she wants, a love that consumes her, passion, adventure and even a little danger.She asks what he wants, but her parents drive up. He compels her to forget they ever met, saying he can't have people know he's in town yet. Alaric continues beating on Damon and then kneels down with his stake. He starts to drive it in, but Damon fights back. Elena wakes up in the car underwater. She remembers the last time she was there with her parents as she struggles to wake Matt up and break the window. She mouthed "I love you" to her dad underwater and passed out. Stefan swam down and her dad pointed at her for Stefan to save her first. In the present, Stefan swims down again and Elena points at Matt for Stefan to save him first. He resists but she's insistent. Stefan swims away with Matt leaving Elena underwater. Damon is fighting Alaric when suddenly Alaric grabs at his chest, weak. He starts to turn grey.

Before Sunset

more
Bad Alaric contemplates his new vampire reality in his empty classroom at school. Tyler calls Caroline to tell her he has to go help Klaus move. He's planning to fake the sire bond until Klaus leaves town. Someone -- Alaric -- streaks vamp fast through school, by Caroline. Rebekah is the only one there for the clean up committee and, as she reminds Caroline, she didn't even get to go to the dance. Caroline offers her sympathy about her mom and Rebekah says the same about Alaric. Rebekah heads to the gym and runs into Alaric. "You're supposed to be dead," she says."I am," he says. He tries to stake her but Caroline comes to her aid and together they drive the stake into his stomach. He removes it, not dead. Caroline runs for her car but is fumbling with her keys when Alaric comes up behind her and snaps her neck. He drags her body through the parking lot, not minding that his skin is getting burned by the sun. Rebekah watches. Stefan drops by Elena's and finds her painting Alaric's room with Jeremy, trying to move on from Alaric's death. Jeremy is rude to Stefan, asking if he's back with Elena and suggesting he give them one day without vampires.The doorbell rings. Stefan answers and finds Damon with bitten Bonnie. They have a problem. Rebekah goes home and tells Klaus about Alaric trying to kill her. He's strong and stuck at the school for now. Klaus agrees to leave town, but wants to get Elena first to make more hybrids for protection against Esther.Rebekah wants to leave now and when Klaus won't, she prepares to leave without him. Stefan tries to soak up the situation. Damon fed Bonnie his blood to save her, she had no idea what she was doing feeding Alaric. The witches clearly wanted him to turn. They try to figure out how they'll kill him. Bonnie says a witch can't truly make an immortal, there's always a work around. But she doesn't know what it is. Elena gets a call from Alaric, who's holding Caroline hostage at the school. He summons her in secrecy. Klaus drops by Elena's, but Damon and Stefan won't let him in. They shut Klaus out and realize Elena's gone.Klaus hurls a rolled up newspaper through the wall. Elena arrives at the high school. Caroline is pinned to a desk with pencils through her hands. Alaric says Elena can help her, then stops her."How many times do I have to tell you? Stop trusting vampires!" he says. Klaus finds things to hurl into the house, getting into a picket fence throwing war with Damon. He's about to torch the place when Stefan gets a call. Alaric is demanding Klaus in exchange for Elena.The boys brainstorm. Bonnie suggest a desiccation spell like the one her mom used to immobilize Michael for 50 years. Even with it, they'll need a lot of vampire muscle. Klaus gives them til nightfall. Back in the school, Alaric tortures Caroline, putting a vervane-soaked rag in Caroline's mouth. He tells Elena it's time she become a real vampire hunter and stake Caroline. Bonnie anxiously waits at the Salvatores' for Abby to arrive. Bonnie's not happy to see her, but they need her help. Stefan and Klaus arrive at the school. Klaus tells Stefan he's still leaving town with Elena if their plan works. Stefan says he'll go with him to protect Elena. Klaus tries to needle him about Damon and Elena, but Stefan says all Klaus' efforts to drive them apart have had the opposite effect. Bonnie tells her mom what she's after, but Abby says it's too dangerous because it uses dark magic. To stop a vampire's heart you have to find a balance among the living. "What's that mean? I don't speak witch," Damon says."I have to stop a human heart," Bonnie says. At the school, Damon tries to get Jeremy's ring just in case Bonnie can't restart his heart. They don't want the ring turning him into another Alaric psycho. Jeremy's not cooperating. Bonnie gives Stefan, Klaus and Damon some of her blood to drink to bind them together so when she stops Jeremy's heart they'll have the power to take Alaric. They have to get a clear shot at Alaric's vein. Before he drinks, Klaus announces that he created their bloodline. They're not sure whether to believe him. Inside, Alaric tells Elena that her parents wouldn't be proud of her being friends with vampires. Alaric tells Elena to kill Bonnie or he'll do it and make it hurt. He puts the stake in her hand. Elena pauses for a moment then tries to stake him instead.He stops her. He thought he taught her better than that. He did. She smashes the nearby glass of vervane in his face. As he screams in pain she frees Bonnie. Bonnie runs into the hall and into Klaus. He tells her to run straight home and stay there, they'll save Elena. Alaric terrorizes Elena, telling her she doesn't deserve to live. She taunts him to kill her then, but he won't. Stefan and Damon run in and grab his arms. They don't have him for long when he flings them both off, snapping their necks. Klaus comes in and tries to go "Temple of Doom"-style through his chest. In the woods, Bonnie prepares to stop Jeremy's heart. But Alaric flings Klaus off and she can feel the connection is broken. Alaric gets the upper hand is about to stake Klaus when Elena shouts at him to stop. She's holding a scalpel on her neck. She threatens to kill himself. She deduced that Esther must have tied his life to hers and if she dies, he dies. He calls her bluff and she starts to cut her own throat. He shouts at her to stop. Klaus and Elena get away. Elena wakes up at Klaus' house getting drained of all her blood. Tyler comes in to the room and sees Elena needs help. Klaus orders him to go get blood bags instead. Tyler struggles over what to do, then goes. Damon comes back to life on the school floor next to his ringing phone. Stefan is there, too. Alaric wakes them up, announcing Klaus is going to kill Elena. He tells them he's bound to Elena so they better go save her because he's stuck till sundown. Klaus tells Elena he's doing her the favor of keeping her from having to pick a Salvatore and tearing them apart. Elena fights to stay conscious as her blood flows out into blood bags. Klaus leaves her alone and Tyler comes in. He frees her. But Klaus comes back."I'm not your little bitch anymore," Tyler says. Klaus doesn't believe he could have broken the sire bond. Tyler goes to help Elena and Klaus charges him. He knocks Tyler down and Elena falls and hits her head on the desk. Stefan and Damon arrive and grab Klaus. Stefan drives his hand into Klaus' chest. Tyler helps hold him.In the woods, Bonnie chants over Jeremy. She stops his heart. She gets a dark rush of power up her veins as they turn black. Stefan and Tyler hold Klaus as Stefan squeezes Klaus's heart to a stop. Damon checks on Elena, she's OK.Klaus' heart slowly stops beating. Bonnie finishes her dark magic rush and starts on trying to revive Jeremy. It doesn't work.She pounds on his chest and he regains consciousness. Klaus drops to the floor, desiccated. Damon and Stefan walk Elena all the way to her front door. She says she's fine, just has a little head ache. She's not worried about Alaric hurting her, she's worried about them. Stefan promises to call when they get back. She knows it seems like she's stringing them both along. "If I choose one of you, then I lose the other. And I've lost so many people I can't bear the thought of losing one of you," she says. They're off to dump Klaus' body in the Atlantic."Be careful. Both of you," she says. She goes inside and finds Caroline, Bonnie, Tyler, Jeremy and Matt having a victory party with shots.They toast a "Klaus-free" life. Liz shows up at Carol Lockwood's house. Someone called a council meeting. It's Alaric. He outs them for their children, calling them hypocrites. He won't let them leave. On the road, Damon's giddy."Klaus is dead, my brother's half-way sane again, give or take an immortal hunter that wants to kill us -- we won," he says. Stefan says they make a pretty good team. Only took a century and a half. Stefan asks what happens when Elena makes a decision. Stefan says he'll leave town if she picks Damon and in 60 years they'll go back to being brothers and none of this will have mattered. Jeremy does some late night painting. Elena makes a case for the vampires she loves. Jeremy worries Alaric might kill his human connection, her, once he completes his task. Jeremy leaves for bed. Elena starts painting but suddenly get a sharp pain in her neck. She drops to the floor unconscious with a bloody nose.

Rebekah returns to the house and presents Klaus with the stake. He throws it on the fire and tells her to pack her bags, they're leaving town and taking Elena with them.Rebekah convinces him to stick around for the Decade dance tonight. She has big plans. Damon calls Alaric. He doesn't know if he turned over the stake, he woke up alone. He's going to leave town for a few days because he keeps blacking out so he's still a threat to everyone. He says he's taking Bonnie's herbs. Alaric gets off the phone and Rebekah joins him. It's bad Alaric, lying to Damon. She tells him Klaus burned the fake stake without a second thought. She has Esther's body in a coffin and plans to return to it with a little magic and some help from a vampire hunter. Alaric takes the dipped dagger from her and stabs her. She crumples to the floor, dead. Moments later Esther gasps awake in her coffin. Prepping for the dance, Caroline teases Elena about making out with Damon but suggests she invite Stefan to the dance. Bonnie is going with Jamie, her mom's surrogate son.Caroline nags her to give Stefan a chance. Back home, Elena calls him. She works up to asking him to the dance. He'd love that. Damon overhears. At the hospital, Damon finds Meredith. He shows her the full jar of herbs Bonnie made for Alaric; he's not taking them. Esther takes Alaric to the place where Klaus tore her heart out of her chest, the cemetery. The violence of her death marked the ground forever. She wants his ring, to bind it to the stake to keep the stake from burning up in its first victim. He hands it over and she recites a spell, then dips the stake in it. She pronounces it the ultimate weapon, for the ultimate hunter. Elena gets ready in her best flapper gear. Stefan shows up in a suit, with a single rose corsage. At the dance, Caroline checks that Matt knows Elena is taken. Tyler shows up, jealous of Klaus and prepared to act sired if he has to. Elena asks Stefan to show her some moves, but he protests he was blacked out for most of the 20s. They end up dancing to a slow song. Elena starts to tell Stefan about Damon and the Denver trip, but he tells her he doesn't need to know. They're having a moment when Damon shows up. Jeremy sees the three of them walk out follows. Bonnie stops him, asking why he's still wearing his ring given what happened to Alaric. He doesn't plan to take it off til his sister stops hanging out with vampires. Damon briefs Stefan and Elena on the situation with Alaric and suggests they mercy kill him. Jeremy hears and storms out. Elena follows and promises nothing will happen to him. Esther shows up, telling Elena to come with her. Jeremy gets the boys, but she's gone when they come outside. They can't leave. There's a salt ring around the school, a boundary spell. Bonnie and Jamie sneak off to a classroom. She kisses him, but Damon interrupts. Esther takes Elena to see Badlaric. Esther says she's going to remake him using dark magic -- the vampire to end all vampires. She says she spoke to Alaric on the other side each time he died, cultivating his darkness. "Vampires took everything from him, now he's getting his vengeance," she says. Klaus shows up at the dance and asks to cut in. Caroline says no, Tyler says yes. Klaus dances with her and tells her he's leaving town tomorrow, he invites her to join him in a year or century, when she's ready. He doesn't think the small town life will be enough for her. Klaus leaves the dance, leaving Rebekah a voice mail. He sees the salt. Stefan tells him his mother's back. Bonnie recites a spell, trying to break the boundary spell. Alaric chokes Jamie to make her work faster, but Stefan bluffs that she's only trying to help Caroline and Tyler, she doesn't care about anyone else. Elena tries to talk Alaric out of going full vamp, but he's determined. Esther uses magic to slice open Elena's hand to complete her spell. Alaric drinks her blood. Then Esther stakes him. Bonnie uses Jeremy's blood on a map to locate Elena. She's still mad at Damon for turning her mom into a vampire. Bonnie announces Esther's fighting her and has more magic than usual. She's channeling a hot spot. Klaus knows where she is. Matt and Jeremy, the only humans, are the only ones who can leave. Tyler suggests maybe they should let Esther kill Klaus, even though that would mean his death, too. Elena removes the stake from Alaric. Esther warns her he'll be himself for a moment when he wakes up. Esther makes her case for getting rid of all vampires, invoking Elena's aunt Jenna's name. She tells her that even though Jenna turned, she's at peace. Esther leaves the crypt and finds herself in the sights of Matt's rifle and Jeremy's crossbow. She easily turns them on each other. They have no control and things are about to go very badly when Alaric stakes her from behind."Where's my ring? Tell me what happened," he asks. Back at the dance, Klaus and Stefan realize they're on the same side for a moment. Damon joins them and Klaus brings up Elena.Bonnie breaks the boundary spell.Stefan thanks her. Jeremy tells Alaric and Elena that Klaus took Esther's body. Alaric breaks the news that he's not going to complete the transition, he thinks he'd be too dangerous as a vampire. Jeremy hugs him but leaves angry.Elena blames herself. Everyone waits outside the crypt, including Meredith. Alaric comes out to say good-bye, then shuts himself inside. Back at the house, Klaus unstakes Rebekah and taunts his dead mother, saying he'll build an army to protect himself. Bonnie and Jamie head home. He thanks her for protecting him. Her dad's out of town. He asks if she'll be OK by herself. She won't. At the Grille, Matt pours Jeremy a shot and they toast Alaric. Elena packs up all Alaric's vampire slayer stuff from his apartment, not wanting to deal with the loss of Alaric. Stefan asks her to come with him. He takes her back to the gym. He tells her biting her after Klaus compelled him was rock bottom. He reminds her she told him then that emotions are what make us human. "I don't have anyone anymore," she cries."You have me," he says, holding on to her. At the crypt, Meredith gives Alaric a sedative and assures Damon he'll go quickly. Damon offered to snap his neck, but Alaric passed. Damon thinks he wants to be alone, but Meredith points out that's nuts. Damon joins him, apologizing for killing him -- twice. Damon offers him a drink, Alaric jokes he's been thinking of cutting back. Bonnie wakes up (fully clothed) in bed with Jamie. Esther appears before her. "Your sisters need you to finish what I started, Bonnie," she says.Jamie shakes her awake, saying she was dreaming. Alaric falls asleep in the crypt. Damon finishes his whiskey and heads outside. He sees Bonnie there, but she ignores him and walks by him, then she cripples him with blinding head pain and walks into the crypt. She stabs her hand, then puts her blood in Alaric's mouth. Suddenly, he's awake and feeding on her. He picks up the stake, in all his vampire, vampire-hunting glory.

Elena checks on Alaric down in the cellar, bringing him supplies. Damon slipped in a copy of "Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde". Ric thinks he should stay locked up until they can convince his killer alter ego to give up the white oak stake. Ric wonders what Klaus will do if they don't turn the stake over to him."Wage war, kill people. You know, Klaus stuff," Elena says. Stefan is going to watch over Alaric. Elena and Damon are going to go to Denver to pick up Jeremy. It was Stefan's idea. He thinks she has some unresolved feelings for Damon. Elena tries to talk to Stefan before they leave, but he just tells her to be safe. Caroline comes to school to find Rebekah has overtaken her decade dance. The theme was the 1970s and Rebekah changed it to the 20s. Matt defends the 20s idea and Caroline storms out and Matt follows her. Their show worked. Caroline has the free day she needs. Matt tells her to tell "him" he says hi. Stefan brings Alaric booze to him help sleep and bring on the killer. Stefan joins him. Alaric knows they might have to torture the information out of him. Stefan needs to know if Elena has feelings for Damon. Damon and Elena find Jeremy at the batting cages. They want him to talk to Rose to find out who sired her. Jeremy says he has plans with a friend first. Elena sees the "friend" too late, it's Klaus' brother Kol and he immediately cracks Damon across the head with a baseball bat. Kol goes for a metal one but Damon picks up the bat splinter and skewers him first. He's not dead, but it will give them a head start. Damon, Jeremy and Elena head for a crap motel to talk to Rose. Damon tries to taunt her into coming out. He tells them she spent her last day in paradise, soaking in the sun and she didn't fear death. Elena knows that's not how it went down. It was the dream Damon gave her. Rose is there. Caroline heads out into the woods, looking for someone. Tyler meets her."You have no idea how much I've missed you," he tells her. Then they start making out and head down for some cave sex. Matt gives Rebekah a ride home. She's suspicious of his ulterior motives. He says there aren't any. She seems to believe him, and maybe is a little sweet on him. Inside the house, Rebekah is not pleased to see her mother Esther has returned.Rebekah asks for one good reason she shouldn't kill her."Because I'm dying," Esther says. Rose talks through Jeremy. She says she's enjoying the other side, including not having to run.Rose tells Jeremy to tell Damon he's still dripping with sex and she misses him. She says she's rooting for him and Elena.Jeremy isn't sure what to make of it. She says Mary Porter sired her. Damon knows her as "Scary Mary" but she doesn't know where she is. Rose is going to do some recon. Stefan and Alaric hang out. He figures his alter ego must hate him, since he's a drinking buddy with vampires. He thinks they're the same.Stefan says it's just the darkest parts of him.Klaus joins them. Stefan explains that killing one Original kills the whole bloodline. Klaus breaks Alaric's neck out to speed things along. Later, Stefan and Damon catch up on the phone. Alaric was wearing his ring. Damon mentions they're holed up in a motel, but doesn't mention Jeremy is with them. Jeremy asks Elena what's going on with Damon but he comes back before Elena has to think of an answer. Back at Original HQ, Esther explains that she's drawing her power from the Bennett line and her connection was severed when Abby died. Her body is dying. Rebekah isn't feeling sympathetic because her mother tried to kill her and her siblings. Esther tells Rebekah she's been watching over her all this time, but she never should have lived a thousand years. Rebekah says she hasn't lived at all.Esther collapses. Klaus comes home and sees his dead mother on the floor. Tyler and Caroline bask in their after glow. Tyler says he feels freer but he's not sure he broke the sire bond. He turned about 100 times in the Appalachian mountains.Caroline explains about the bloodlines and that if Damon finds out they're not sired from Klaus, they plan to kill him. They don't care that it would kill Tyler, too. In the motel, Elena pretends to sleep and watches Damon, with his shirt open, pour himself a drink. He notices her staring and she shuts her eyes. But only for a moment. He walks over to the bed and lies down next to her. She looks at him. She's impressed by what he did for Rose."Why don't you let people see the good in you?" she asks. "Because when people see good, they expect good, and I don't want to have to live up to anyone's expectations," he says. Elena rolls away, but he holds her hand. She thinks about it but gets up and goes outside for air. He follows her outside (shirt sill unbuttoned)."Don't," she says."Why not?" he asks. Then she goes to him and kisses him -- a lot. They make out ferociously on the motel balcony, but are interrupted by Jeremy. Rose found Mary, she's in Kansas.Elena tries to pull herself together under Jeremy's withering judgmental stare. Back in the cellar, Alaric returns from the dead, still himself. They can both see it's not working. Alaric takes off his ring and says Stefan has to try and kill him and they'll hope his alter ego has a sense of self-preservation.Stefan thinks about it, then decks him. In Kansas, Elena and Damon go check out Mary's address. They go inside and poke around in the dark. Damon says Mary's creepy, but they still got together.They find her staked to a wall, dead. Kol beat them there. Stefan wallops on Ric, who challenges Stefan to put more effort into it. Blood starts pouring from Alaric's face and he challenges Stefan to keep going. Stefan worries he won't be able to stop himself. Alaric says to bring out his dark side, Stefan will have to tap into his.Stefan charges him and throws him against the wall. Alaric collects himself and seems to come up bad, taunting Stefan for being weak. Kol taunts Elena and Damon, saying Mary used to be a bit of an Original groupie. Kol knows what they were trying to figure out.He picks up a bat and wallops on Damon, trying to even the score. Back in the cellar, Badlaric isn't talking about the stake and Stefan gets impatient and puts him in a chokehold.Badlaric says it's in the cave -- where no vampire can get it. Stefan walks out and locks Alaric in. He leaves to make a call but finds Klaus and Rebekah in the living room. Damon puts himself back together and checks that Elena's OK. Then he asks what she's doing. She tells him what Stefan thinks. She doesn't know if he's right. He thinks she came on the trip hoping he'd sabotage things and make her choice easier. He tells her he's not going to do that this time, she'll have to figure it out on her own. Rebekah grabs Badlaric, announcing she's going to take him to the caves to get the stake. Klaus tells Stefan he knows about Damon's trip to Denver. Stefan asks if Klaus is going to kill him. He thinks if he were going to, he would have by now. Klaus tries to get Stefan's ripper side to come back out. Stefan says he's accepted that part, so it can't control him. "And neither can you. So unless you're going to stake me, why don't you get the hell out of my house?" Stefan says. On the long car ride home, Rose pops up in the backseat, narrating for Jeremy. She tells Jeremy that Elena and Damon had a fight. She knows Jeremy doesn't approve, but she urges him to have an open mind. Elena makes him a better person, but he makes her a better person, too. "Damon surprises her, challenges her, makes her question her beliefs. Stefan is different. His loveis pure and he'll always be good for her. Damon is either the best thing for her, or the worst," Rose says. Caroline takes Tyler home to stay with her. She doesn't know what they'll do if it turns out Klaus didn't sire Damon, but she tells Tyler she doesn't want to lose him again. Tyler finds the picture Klaus drew of her and gets crazy jealous. She insists it means nothing, but Tyler says he's going to find somewhere else to spend the night. Down in the cave, Badlaric retrieves the stake but won't bring it to Rebekah. He tells her one stake means only one Original has to die. He offers to make sure it isn't her. She takes a step toward him and crosses into the cave -- which she isn't supposed to be able to do. "I want them all to die," she says. "It was easy to fool Nicklaus, but I thought you of all people would understand. After all, my son did use your body at one point." "You're not Rebekah," he says."No, my name is Esther, and we have a great deal in common," she says.

Elena drops by Alaric's with muffins. Damon won't let her in. After she walks away, we see what he was hiding from her -- Alaric at a table saw, cutting down the white oak Wickery Bridge sign to make stakes. Stefan suggests sharper points. "We finally have our own stakes to kill an original, I'm not going to miss because you can't whittle," Stefan tells Damon. When it's all underway, Alaric announces he's going to call Sheriff Forbes and turn himself in. Stefan explains they have Originals to kill first. Damon gives Ric his ring back."You're going vampire hunting, Ric -- wear it," Damon says. Out in the woods, Elena breaks the news to Caroline that Alaric killed her dad. Elena thinks Alaric is a victim of something supernatural, just like everyone else. Matt joins them. The Salvatores arrive, having texted everyone. Bonnie can't make it, they assume she's mourning her mom bailing again.Damon tells them about the white oak.Elena realizes they have a weapon to kill Klaus -- a whole bag full of them. Klaus finds his brother Finn walking down a street. Klaus is looking for their mother, who Finn says is off trying to find another way to kill them all. He's totally in support of that. Klaus wants Finn to come back to Mystic Falls so a witch can unlink them. Klaus threatens to dagger Finn if he doesn't come with them, but Klaus points out it would affect Rebekah, too. Klaus isn't concerned. Finn walks around a corner and sees Rebekah is there, on Klaus's side. Klaus throws Finn around. Back in the woods, Stefan explains that Rebekah is their target. They want Caroline to play Klaus bait again and distract him.Matt will distract Rebekah, Damon will pin her arms from behind and Stefan will stake her.They have 12 stakes. They practice various scenarios. Klaus drags Finn back home and shows him Sage is there waiting for him. They run into each other's arms. Rebekah excuses herself to go render payback on Damon. At his house, Damon hides his stake with the firewood. "Did you learn nothing from the moonstone in the soapdish?" Alaric asks. They hear a noise and Damon investigates. He's at the bottom of the stairs when Alaric comes flying down. He turns around and Rebekah drives a knife through his gut. In the town square, Elena worries to Caroline that Bonnie isn't returning her calls. Matt notices Sage and Finn, visiting where they used to meet up. Sage tells him she doesn't want him to die. Elena calls Stefan, who comes home to find Alaric waking up. Damon is gone. Back at Rebekah's, she strings Damon up by animal traps on his wrists. She rips open his shirt, telling him she's going to bleed the vervane out of him so she can compel him to kill Elena or Stefan. She slices open his chest and neck. Klaus stops in to offer bleeding critiques. Then he visits his witch: Bonnie. She's studying the unlinking spell, but he reminds her he'll kill anyone who comes to her rescue.She says she's not strong enough, so Klaus calls his brother Kol, who was on standby. He sends video of Jeremy playing fetch with his dog in Seattle. Caroline visits Alaric, bringing him his witchy herb juice. She tells him she knows he killed her dad. He apologizes. She tells him about killing a stranger after she turned -- and she liked it. She says she's no better than him. She's going to follow Elena's lead and choose to believe Alaric can be saved. Stefan meets up with Elena downtown. He wants to proceed with trying to kill Finn while they have the chance, but she wants to save Damon. Seeing that she's not going to help him, Stefan walks off. Damon slowly bleeds out in Klaus's house. In a dreamlike haze, he sees Elena approach and tells her to release the traps on his hands. She does. She carries him out, but he's weak. She says she's not going to leave him and offers him her wrist. He bites down, then he stops and kisses her. And then he wakes up.Damon mocks Rebekah for thinking he actually had a thing for her."I get it, if Klaus bossed me around for 1,000 years I'd probably be pretty desperate for attention, too," he says.Rebekah stabs him and twists the knife. Bonnie hears.She tells Klaus the way he uses people isn't right. He threatens to track down her mother and kill her, too.Klaus shows Bonnie vials of his sibling' blood and offers his own. In the Grill, Sage and Finn do shots of tequila. A guy named Troy says hi to Sage and she tells Finn she turned him for back-up. She explains she's in enemy territory and they can't trust anybody.Matt and Stefan linger nearby.Sage orders more tequila and Matt takes out a vial with a dropper. Bonnie starts the spell at Klaus' house. Stefan texts Matt to get ready as Finns scolds Sage for turning people. Sage and Finn knock back their shots and immediately spit them out. They notice the vervane and see Stefan leaving. Bonnie chants and the mixed siblings' blood separates on the table. Stefan waits for Sage and Finn outside and jumps them, but Sage quickly knocks the stake out of his hand and down some stairs. Bonnie finishes chanting and the blood is in five pools. Finn runs down the stairs and Elena and Matt pop out of a door at the bottom. Elena shoots Finn with a crossbow to pin him and Matt stakes him. Sage rushes to him and cries as he dies. He turns to shriveled ash and bursts into flames.Matt, Elena and Stefan all get away. Back at Klaus's the blood is still separate and Klaus is alive. Klaus escorts Bonnie out and she sees Damon hanging in the living room. Klaus taunts her to save the man who turned her mother into a vampire. Elena and Stefan meet Caroline at the Salvatores. She sent Alaric home with herb juice.Bonnie calls Elena and tells her Klaus has Damon. She tells them about her unlinking spell. She's upset and hangs up, breaking down sobbing. Stefan tries to storm out to deal with Klaus, and Elena fails to talk him into staying. But he's only out the door for a second when he comes flying back in.Sage is there for retribution, with her helper Troy.She tries to beat up Stefan, but starts bleeding from her nose and getting sick. She collapses on the floor and Troy starts convulsing, too. And then, like that, they're dead. Elena and Caroline try to figure out what happened. Stefan suggests it's the bloodline. Finn turned Sage, Sage turned Troy and they're all dead. They realize if you kill an Original, their entire bloodline dies, too. So all vampires could be wiped out. Back in the torture chamber, Damon sees Stefan and his bag of stakes walk in. He's really there. Stefan calls for Klaus, who joins them with Rebekah. He explains he has eight stakes from Wickery bridge and Finn is already dead. He offers to trade them for Damon. Klaus asks how he knows there aren't more , then goes to Damon and compels him to leave. Damon can't resist. He tries to rip his wrists out of the traps. Caroline returns to the Salvatore mansion after disposing of Sage and Troy. They still have three stakes, if they can figure out which Originals to kill. Caroline was turned by Damon and Damon and Stefan were turned by Katherine and she was turned by Rose. They don't know who turned Rose, but hope it isn't Klaus. Caroline realizes Klaus turned one of them -- Tyler. Klaus compels Damon to stop ripping his wrists out then asks how many more stakes there are.Damon says there are 11 left. Klaus rails against Stefan, telling him he's given him purpose as someone to rail against. Stefan has enough of it and charges Klaus with a stake. But Klaus points out it could kill them both. Rebekah releases Damon, telling the boys to bring them the stakes and they'll let them live. If not, it's the whole wipe out everyone you love scenario. Rebekah mourns for Finn, but Klaus is glad he's gone, calling him an embarrassment. Rebekah is appalled and tells Klaus that at least the Salvatores value family. Klaus plans to leave with the stakes and take Elena to create a new family of hybrids. Klaus tells Rebekah she's as pathetic as Finn if she chooses to stay. Back home, Stefan waits for Damon to retrieve Alaric's stake. Stefan tells Elena he's wasted too much time hating Klaus, they lost. Elena says Stefan beat him by being better than him.Hating Klaus allowed him to ignore everything that was happing around him, he says.Elena tells him she never stopped loving him. Stefan says it's all his fault. She asks what and he says the fact she loves Damon. He asks her to admit it, but she says she doesn't know what she feels. Damon visits Alaric, asking for the stake. Alaric looks for it. He freaks out, realizing it's not where he put it.Then he realizes he's the only one who knew where it was. "No. Are you telling me that your vampire-hating alter ego has a stake that could kill an entire line of vampires, possibly mine?" "That's exactly what I'm telling you," Alaric says.

more
Alaric (Matthew Davis), possible psychopathic serial killer, undergoes a CAT scan. Meredith (Torrey DeVitto) is hopeful there's a medical cause she can treat. She tells Elena (Nina Dobrev) she suspected Alaric after he mentioned his ring. She remembered something her grandmother had told her about Samantha Gilbert and her secret journal. She felt bad he couldn't control himself. She wants to help. In the CAT scan, Alaric contemplates his possibly killer reflection and freaks out. He takes a deep breath and goes stone-faced.The results show everything is normal. Alaric tells Elena he doesn't believe he killed anyone, but he also doesn't want the ring anymore. Damon (Ian Somerhalder) stops by, nonchalant about the whole thing. Elena immediately brings up seeing Stefan feed on a woman. Damon says he made Stefan (Paul Wesley) do it because they're vampires, "predators, not puppies." "Stefan has built himself a delusional wagon which he has repeatedly fallen off of, what he needs to learn is control," Damon says. Elena suggests Damon's not the right person to be giving lessons in self-control. Caroline (Candice Accola) comes to Abby's house with a cooler full of blood. Abby (Persia White) isn't handling the transition well, she's rattled by not being able to feel her witchy connection to nature anymore. Bonnie (Kat Graham) doesn't know how to help her. Alaric, Meredith and Damon head to the Wickery Bridge, which is being rebuilt. Half the town is there. They notice Rebekah (Claire Holt) has been asking a lot of questions lately. "Tell me again why we're here?" Alaric asks."Ric, the world can't stop just because you're an accidental psycho killer," Damon says. Carol (Susan Walters) wants the sign for the bridge from Alaric. He forgot about it. Damon notices his old vampire pal Sage (Cassidy Freeman), his "hottest teacher". Rebekah saunters over. She guesses Sage is in town looking for her brother, Sage's lost love, Finn. She tells Sage that Finn left town. Back at the house, Stefan pours himself a glass of blood but is interrupted by Elena. She came by to get the book about Samantha. She asks how he's doing and offers to help, but he's not receptive. Stefan recaps the book for her: Samantha Gilbert was committed to an insane asylum, tried to give herself a lobotomy with a knitting needle, and bleed to death in her cell. He says if it's the same thing that's happening to Alaric, there's nothing they can do.She leaves him to his blood. Sage and Damon take a stroll. Finn turned Sage long ago so they could be together forever, but Klaus broke them up by daggering Finn and putting him in a coffin. Damon knows Rebekah is up to something. Sage suggests they get in her head and find out. She thinks they can get in when her defenses are down. Back at the bridge, Damon flirts with Rebekah. He invites her over and uses all his best moves. Caroline checks on Abby's surrogate son Jamie, who's outside avoiding her. Caroline realizes he's scared of Abby. She tells him Abby needs his support. Elena calls Caroline because Bonnie is still dodging her calls. She tells her something terrible has happened. She needs Bonnie's help. Back at Elena's, Alaric looks through Meredith's files on him. He goes through the police reports, saying he was defending people in most of them. There's something not in the reports. He tells her he was the one who slayed her vampire cousin Logan Fell. She asks why he never tried to kill Damon. He says he did. Damon killed him. Damon comes home and finds Stefan gorging on blood. Stefan's angry at Damon for what he said to Elena.Damon warns Stefan to make himself scarce unless he wants to be part of a "Sage-Rebekah sex sandwich". Jamie comes inside to build a fire and gives Abby a hug. Unfortunately, Abby gets a whiff of his blood and vamps out, biting him. He screams. Bonnie comes running, throwing Abby off him. Abby realizes what she's done and is horrified. Damon and Sage wait for Rebekah to arrive at the Salvatore mansion. He tells her Finn isn't coming back.Rebekah arrives with wine. Sage and Damon start their own dance party. Rebekah chews on the piano player. Damon joins her. He starts to kiss her, telling her he wants her, not Sage. The plan is working perfectly. Bonnie finds Abby outside, bringing her a bag of blood. Abby wants to leave. Bonnie convinces her they need her. Caroline reports Jamie is healed thanks to some vampire blood. Now, she needs a favor. At the house, Alaric gives Elena a list of all his bank accounts and passwords, just in case. Caroline calls, saying Abby thinks they can reverse the damage with a spell. Bonnie's on her way, but doesn't feel chatty. Bonnie needs something he wore before the spell. He suggests his wedding ring back at his loft. Elena goes to get it. Naked Rebekah dozes in bed with Damon. Sage sneaks in and reads her thoughts. Damon sneaks out of bed and into the shower with Sage. She shows Damon Rebekah's thoughts about the white oak tree. Downstairs, Damon starts looking for their old milling records. He asks Sage to go upstairs and keep Rebekah distracted. He finds records from 1912. There's an entry about Wickery bridge. Elena arrives at Alaric's and finds Stefan waiting. She thinks he doesn't want to be around her, but he tells her he just can't be around her because he's not in control. He found newspaper articles about Samantha Gilbert. She killed a nurse and a guard when she was in the mental hospital, where she had no personal effects, not even the ring.So the behavior could happen even without the ring. Cut to Alaric waking up on Meredith's couch. He gets up and drains her tranquilizer syringes. Damon burns the 1912 book. Sage reports Rebekah is gone. He tells her the book showed the white oak was used to make the Wickery bridge. She points out this is a problem for her, because of Finn. She threatens him. He offers a deal, she helps him kill Rebekah and he'll leave Finn alone. Going through Alaric's things looking for the ring, Stefan and Elena find pictures of Alaric's victims. Damon comes down after getting dressed and finds Sage is gone. Stefan finds a file on Jeremy Gilbert. There's a note telling him to continue on his work and cleanse the council. It reads like a hit list of council members. Elena finds Alaric's wedding ring. At Meredith's house, Alaric confronts her coolly and asks if she feels remorse, as a member of the council who didn't protect the town from vampires. He picks up a knife and approaches her. He lunges at her and slices her. She pours hot coffee on him and runs. He chases her up the stairs and tries to lock herself in the bathroom. She stabs him in the hand with scissors and locks the last door. Meredith's cut badly. Damon tears into town and finds Rebekah standing at the Wickery bridge as it burns. She taunts him and saunters off.Sage is there. She points out he lied to her. Since all the originals are linked, Finn would die if Rebekah did. She read his thoughts, too. He threatens to kill her, but he's no match for her 900 years. Damon tells her about Finn volunteering to kill himself to end them all. Angrily, Damon promises when he finds a way to kill them all, he'll start with Finn. Stefan and Elena return to the house and notice something amiss. Alaric comes down the stairs with his hand bandaged. He says Meredith got called to the hospital. He hurt his hand on a coffee mug. Elena lies about meeting up with Stefan and finding his ring. He says he's going to get it. She sees the bloody knife.Before he can do anything, Stefan chokes him from behind, knocking him out. Stefan smells blood and goes upstairs, telling Elena he's going to need her help. They find Meredith passed out and covered in blood. Stefan immediately vamps out. He then takes a moment and gets it under control. He feeds Meredith his blood. Alaric wakes up in bed with Damon watching over him. Damon tells Alaric that Bonnie did a spell. Alaric notices his hand is hurt and asks if something happened. Damon tells him he has an alter-ego hell bent on killing council members. Alaric asks about Meredith. Damon says she'll be fine. Bonnie finds Elena. Abby says all the dying and coming back might have chipped away at Alaric's psyche. She gives Elena herbs to bind the spell. Elena asks about Abby. Bonnie says she's going to go stay with her. Elena apologizes again. Bonnie hugs her forgives her. Back at the house, Jamie and Caroline plant the garden. Caroline finds Abby inside writing a letter. Caroline realizes she's leaving. Abby says she doesn't know how to do this. "Be a vampire or be a parent?" Caroline demands, saying she can teacher her how to be a vampire.She tells her Bonnie is not better off without her. She asks her to stay, but Abby picks up her things and leaves. Elena contemplates her empty house. She calls Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen). She doesn't tell him about Alaric, but says she misses him. At home, Stefan has a drink in the morning. He's toasting control. Stefan notices Damon is feeling chipper. He unveils his package: Alaric's sign for the Wickery Bridge made from the white oak tree. They have a weapon."Game's back on, brother. Let's go kill some originals," Damon says.

Elena goes outside to give them room to talk. She runs into Stefan. Damon checks out Dr. Fell at the hospital. She signed her ex-boyfriend's death certificate. She suggests the bigger mystery is how Alaric came into the hospital on his deathbed and walked out without a scratch. Damon turns to leave, and she jabs a needle into his neck.

He blasts Stefan with wood chips. Inside, Abby hears the noise and dumps herbs into her palm, then puts her hand over Bonnie's mouth. Damon visits Alaric and tells him Meredith vervaned him and took his blood. He thinks he helped Alaric by proving she's psycho.

He tells Bill they're not strong enough and he should run. Bill takes off, but Tyler breaks free. Abby drives up to meet Klaus's hybrid. She tells him she couldn't get Bonnie to talk. Bonnie wakes up and Abby tells her if she doesn't tell them where the coffins are, Jamie is compelled to kill himself. Bonnie says she can't. With the car door as cover, Abby takes out her phone and types a message for Bonnie to see: "Warn your friends." Elena works to break free from her rope, but Jamie tells her he'll have to shoot Stefan again if she does. He tells her about the man who came by and that he is supposed to kill himself if Bonnie doesn't lead them to the coffins. Elena clarifies what he said about her. Jamie isn't supposed to hurt her. She tells him her ropes are tight and he comes to check. She breaks free, grabs his shotgun and knocks him out with it. She starts digging the wood chips out of Stefan. Damon checks on the witch house and finds Klaus already there. He insults the witches and they punish him with crippling pain. When he says his hybrid is about to end the Bennett line, they release him and show him the coffins. But the fourth is gone. Bonnie warned him. He had time to move it.

Meredith says he's not going to make it. Then she takes out a vial of vampire blood. She tells Alaric she cheats. She hates when people die, so when she can stop it, she does. She injects Bill with the blood. Elena finds Stefan. He says he shouldn't have pulled the stunt with the bridge, but says she shouldn't have lied to him about her road trip with Bonnie. Stefan tells her she's better than Damon, better than both of them. Bonnie tells her mom that Jamie's safe. She still wants to help Bonnie."You can't. You have no magic and I don't trust you," Bonnie says. Abby explains her magic got weaker when she was away from Bonnie; she thinks Bonnie can help her get it back. Tyler checks on Bill in the hospital. He knows how he's better, and isn't angry at Tyler. Tyler says he feels a little bit more like himself. Bill tells him it's time for him to turn again, until it's painless. Until he's in control, he's not allowed near Caroline. Alaric shows Meredith his bag of vampire hunting goodies. He tells her about his ring. She slips it off and he flinches. They're kissing when Elena comes home.Meredith leaves.Elena tells him he's allowed to move on after Jenna. Stefan comes home.
