Previously on
"the vampire diaries"...

Elena: I can't.
I can't. I can't.

Damon: Turn it off.

Stefan: She's ruthless
without her humanity, damon.

Shane: When silas
was buried

By the witch
qetsiyah,

She left him
with the cure.

She knew that
he wanted to die,

Be reunited with
his one true love.

Damon: Bonnie is the one
that can drop the veil

Between this side
and the other side.

Rebekah: You will
open the floodgates

For every
supernatural being

Klaus: Silas,
show me your real face.

Now, why would I do that

When I can look like
whomever I want you to see?

Damon: So what
are we gonna do?

Stefan: Lock her up, make
her life a living hell.

You boys want
to play games?

Let's see
who breaks first.

[music playing]

Caroline:
Elena, you're here.

Hey, I got
valedictorian.

You can help me
write my speech.

Pass.
Oh, come on.

We're graduating
this year. This is it.

We're gonna have to soak up
every second before--

Wait. Something
is not right.

I don't want
to be here.

Damon: What is
wrong with you?

Don't you want to be
with your friends,

Graduation parties,
caps, gowns?

You know the drill.

What is this?

We're not
really here, are we?

We're in my head.
Relax.

I just want to show you
all the things

You've been missing out
on since you took

The giant leap
over the cuckoo's nest.

Last thing
I remember--

Let me guess. Prom--
beautiful dress,

Gorgeous hair,

You trying
to murder bonnie.

It's a good thing I was
there to take care of you.

You starved me,
you and stefan.

Yeah. Well,

We had to keep you weak
so I could bring you here.

See, the way I figure it is,
if I can make you nostalgic,

Then you're already
halfway

To getting your
humanity back.

It's not gonna
work, damon.

Well, there are
other ways to provoke

An emotional response.

Stefan: You still have
her locked in the safe?

You've been in her head
for an hour.

What, still nothing?

How you doing in there?

Come on.

Is the old you ready
to come out and play?

Go to hell.

Ok.

Back you go.

Damon: We can do
this the nice way,

Or we can do it
the other way,

But either way,
we're not stopping

Until you turn your
humanity switch back on.

So I'm gonna let you
think about that,

And I'm gonna
come back for you

In a couple hours
or a couple years

Because all
we have is time.

Caroline: Where is she?
I want to see her.

We're not
letting anyone see her.

That's the whole point.

Isolation leads to
misery, leads to emotion.

She's been here for days.
She hasn't improved at all?

Look. She doesn't
want to, caroline,

Not yet, all right?

She's devastated.
She lost her brother.

She attacked
her friends.

She killed
an innocent woman.

You said that you knew
how to help her.

I did say that.
We are.

How, by torturing her?

It's not torture.
It's an intervention.

The only chance
we have with her

Is to provoke her,
to trigger something--

Fear, anger,
self-pity, anything.

Let me talk to her

Before any more
interventioning.

If she's weak,
she can't hurt me.

Please just let me try.

[sighs]

Good luck.

[exhales]

I brought you something.

It doesn't have any
vervain in it, I swear.

I just figured
a little blood

Might help you
think straight.

For the record,
I don't agree

With what they're doing.

I mean, I agree
that you need to turn

Your humanity back on,

But I don't think
that making you suffer

Is the way to do it.

That's not who you are.

What makes you such
an expert on who I am?

Because we've been
friends forever.

I tried to kill
you, caroline.

I'm not exactly bff
material anymore.

You should move on.

I am not going
to give up on you.

This annoying, clingy
thing that you're doing,

Did it ever occur to you
maybe that's why

Both your boyfriends
skipped town?

I mean, I know
that tyler said

He was running
for his life.

Maybe he was
running from you.

And klaus...
I mean,

Let's just say it.

Nobody likes
a tease.

Hey, I'm not judging.

Might be nice
to have a bad boy

Ruffle those
perfect feathers.

You're in pain.
You're lashing out.

I get it, but you can't
stay this way forever.

We're about to graduate
and start new lives,

And you deserve--

Are you seriously
talking

About high-school
graduation?

Caroline,
do you realize

How pathetic
you're gonna look

In that cap and gown
pretending to be human

While your mom
fake-smiles

And just counts down
the minutes

Until you leave town

So that you can stop
being a reminder

That her daughter
is a repulsive,

Blood-sucking,
control freak monster?

It's really too bad
stefan stopped me

Before I put you out
of your misery,

But, hey, here's
to second chances.

Elena?

Do whatever
you have to do.

I'm gonna be upstairs.

[music playing on jukebox]

Ahh...

I was wondering
if you were gonna

Say hello
or keep ignoring me.

I was working.

I see you compelled
the bartenders again.

My brothers and I
have parted company.

Elijah and nik have
run off to new orleans

Chasing god knows what,
and I am finally free.

Yeah. I heard about that.

Did you hear that I
lost the cure to silas?

I was this close

To the life
that I always wanted,

And then, poof,
gone in a heartbeat.

I'm sorry. I know
how much you wanted it.

Please. I know you

Were planning on
stealing it for elena.

I never had
a chance, did I?

I meant what I said,

But if you want to feel
sorry for yourself,

Go ahead.

Why don't you stay
and have a drink?

I've got to go
meet caroline.

Are they still keeping
elena trapped

In the salvatore
mansion?

I happen to like her
just the way she is.

It's tragic that they're
trying so desperately

To fix something
that isn't broken.

Elena was my friend

Long before she was
your mean-girl sidekick.

So if you're upset
that you lost the cure

And your brothers
ditched you,

Why are you still
in mystic falls?

Some of us don't have
the option of leaving.

Some of us are broke

And failing all
of our classes

And stuck here.

So why don't you
take your freedom

And get
the hell out of town?

I would.

Caroline: Bonnie,
where have you been?

I left you, like,
90 million messages.

Bonnie:
Studying french.

We still have
final exams, remember?

Oh, don't
remind me. Look.

This whole thing
with elena,

It's about
to get brutal,

And I know
that she's

Not your favorite
person right now,

But I could really
use you over here.

For what, moral support or
so you can check up on me?

Moral support

And maybe just
a tiny check-in

To make sure that
silas isn't playing

Any more pesky

Little mind games
with you.

I'm fine, ok?

Silas doesn't
control me anymore.

And I think I'll pass
on the invite.

Elena tried to kill me.

I'm not quite ready
to forgive and forget.

I'm gonna call you
later, ok?

I got to go.

Lying, scheming,

And a secret
rendezvous with moi?

Not very
bonnie bennett-y,

Especially
when elena needs
her favorite witch.

This has nothing
to do with them.

This is between
you and me.

All right. Well,
luckily for you,

I've got some spare
time on my hands.

You said you have
an offer

That I can't refuse.

Well, by all means.

What do you have
in mind?

Good.
You're awake.

We thought you
could use

A little
sunshine.

Looking for this?

Aw. You know
the rules.

Bad girls don't get
nice jewelry.

You took my ring.

I'm devastated.

And bored.

Can I go back to
solitary now?

No. I kind of like
you in the hot seat.

Whenever you're
ready, brother.

Am I supposed
to be scared?

You will be.

And when you are,
focus on that fear.

It's the key to getting
your humanity back.

You're not
gonna burn me.

You don't
think so?

No.

And even if you do manage
to get my emotions back,

I'll remember all this.

And I'll hate
both of you for it.

Tsk. Worth the risk.

Aah! Ugh!

[elena screaming]

Aah!

[breathing heavily]

That feels
better, huh?

How about
a little gratitude

Or any human emotion
whatsoever?

And we can
stop this.

[mutters]

I didn't quite
catch that.

I said, I'm gonna kill you.

Bingo. See? There's
a little rage.

I should have
figured that'd be

The first emotion that
came out of you.

I tend to pull that
out of people.

Elena, look at me.

We don't want to do
this, ok?

You can stop this
right now.

It's your choice.

[chuckles]

Kind of funny, actually,

You being the one

To pull back
the curtain.

I bet part of you
enjoys it

Since, you know, I
dumped you and all.

Wow. That was
downright vindictive.

See? I think now we're
breaking through

That tough candy shell

And getting into
the ooey-gooey

Rich center
of your humanity.

This is good. I think we
should shine some light

On the subject.

Let me guess...

This is gonna hurt you

A lot more
than it hurts me.

Look, I know what
you're going through.

After all you've
done, you're afraid

To face the guilt
you'll feel

If you turned your
emotions back on.

The only way we
can help you

Is to make the alternative
hurt even worse.

Aah! Aah...

Oh, we have
to keep talking.

If we don't keep
talking,

Then I won't be able to stop
myself from listening in.

And I can't stand to hear

Elena in pain.

What do you want
to talk about?

I don't know.
Anything.

I ordered you
a cap and gown.

You did?

I just figured that
you'd forget,

So I ordered yours
when I ordered mine.

And I got one
for elena, too.

It's gonna work.

We're gonna get
elena back.

What the hell is
she doing here?

Hi.

I don't mean
to interfere.

It's just I happen to know
all they keep in this house

Is blood and booze.

So I brought
a peace offering.

Burgers?

Thanks.

Caroline: Yeah,
we can't really

Entertain
right now,

But thanks
for stopping by.

I think I might stay.

Matt mentioned that he

Was failing classes
and needed a study buddy.

You're failing?

Well, why
didn't you

Ask me to help
you study?

Well, I didn't exactly
ask her.

Well, what classes
are you failing?

I'm not failing.

I'm just really,
really behind.

History and italian
and math.

Matt!

This year's been
a little distracting.

We could both help.

"all hands on deck."

That's the motto
around here, right?

We don't have
a motto.

Look, if you need
to study,

We're gonna study.

I'm gonna go home,
and I'm gonna get

My flash cards
and my study guides

And some
energy bars.

This is gonna
be good.

You dated that?

She likes projects.

[rustling]

Who's there?

Oh, my god.

Hello, caroline.

[music playing on jukebox]

Let me get
this straight.

You want me to hand
over silas' tombstone?

What makes you think
I even have it?

I know you took it
from the island.

You're a scavenger. You'd
never leave it behind.

So you're working
for silas now, huh?

Running errands
for the big, bad

Immortal.

I didn't switch sides.

In two days, there'll
be a full moon.

Silas wants me
to harness its power

To drop the veil

Between our side
and the other side.

He wants to take the cure,
and then he wants to die.

I said I'd help him,

And I've been hiding
from him ever since,

Buying time.

Time for what?

You don't need
to worry about it.

You just need to bring
me the tombstone.

It's a hunk of rock.

What do you even
want with it?

The less you know,
the better.

Silas is psychic.

He can get into people's
heads, read their minds,

Make them see things
that aren't really there.

I'm taking a big enough
risk just talking to you.

Ok. Then how do I know
that you're not him?

You don't. But I'm not.

And what makes you so
sure that I'm not him?

Because he can't get
into my head anymore.

Because I am the only one

Who can see his true face.

What's in it for me?

Bring me the tombstone.

Help me stop silas from
unleashing hell on earth.

Believe me, I'll make it
worth your while.

[screaming]

[panting]

Damon: You're gonna
thank me for this.

After you turn it
back on,

You'll realize life
with no emotions blew.

You know what else blew?

Being sired to you.

Going every day believing
that I was in love with you.

I remember every
horrible moment of it.

[chuckling]
and you...

So scared that it
wasn't real.

Well, guess what.
It wasn't.

You were right.

So go ahead. Keep trying
to get the old me back.

Who knows? Maybe stefan and
I will give it another go.

[screaming]

[coughs, then chuckles]

I am the girl
that you love.

You wouldn't do anything
to actually hurt me.

You just proved that.

So what do I really
have to be afraid of?

[sarcastically]
so that went well.

Every other vampire
turns it on, no problem.

You kill. You feed.

You do all the awful things
that a vampire does.

And then when you're done,
you turn it back on.

Why is she being
so stubborn?

[bottle breaks]

Because she has nothing
to come back to.

Her home's gone.
Her family's gone.

She alienated
her friends.

She destroyed her
relationships.

No. She wants
to come back.

Scaring the hell out of
her should have worked.

She's smart. She knows
we're not gonna hurt her.

All right. So we
get somebody else,

Somebody who really
will hurt her.

Who?

Katherine?
Think about it.

She's the reason
jeremy's dead, right?

So if anybody's gonna
provoke an emotion,

So we call her
and then what? Beg her

To help us out of the
kindness of her own heart?

You kidding me?

Katherine was just
abandoned by elijah.

She has nothing.
She has no one.

We invite her into
our house

To come torture
elena.

There's no way she's
gonna turn that down.

Everyone said that
you were gone for good.

That's true.

But I never meant to go
without saying good-bye.

You don't owe me
an explanation.

You're moving on.
By all means, go.

Well, that's just it,
isn't it?

I never had any intention
of moving on.

The truth is, I've tried to
stop thinking about you.

And I can't.

[sighs]

Come to new orleans.

What are you
afraid of?

You!

I'm afraid of you.

Wouldn't it be more
accurate to say

You're afraid
of yourself,

Your darkest
desires?

Elena was right,
wasn't she?

Deep down,
you long to have

Your perfect
feathers ruffled.

How do you know
what elena said to me

In that cell?

Aah!
Then again...

There's so much to
be afraid of,

Isn't there, like
what I'll do to you

If your friend
bonnie

Doesn't come out
of hiding.

Where is she?

Silas.
Where is she?!

She's not at home.
She's not anywhere.

Bonnie is playing
games with me.

And I don't like it.

Tell her
I'm looking for her.

Tell her to come
out of the shadows.

Tell her
that this...

[screams]

Is only
the beginning.

What time
will caroline return

From the train station?

[recorded voice
speaking italian]

Well, that's handy.

Sort of a cheat,
though, isn't it?

Not everyone's had
a thousand years

To learn everything
about everything.

I'm not sure how
good I am

At learning italian.

I was fluent
in the 12th century,

But languages have
a way of evolving.

So can you help or not?

Of course I can.

Don't be cranky.
I was just teasing.

I'm sorry. I just don't
want to get left behind

When all my friends
go to college

And I'm the only
repeat senior.

The only reason that
you are failing is

Because you're
preoccupied

With training
doomed hunters

And dealing with
elena's drama.

You need
better friends,

Like me.

I could compel you
good grades,

Get a scholarship.

I don't want to do that.

Why not?
Everyone needs

An advantage
in life.

I could be yours.

When you convinced me to
save April young's life

At the prom,

I realized that I could
be a better person.

And I'm grateful
for that.

So let me give you
some advice.

Take advantage of
what I'm offering you.

Make something
of yourself.

For the record,

Anyone who leaves you
behind is a fool.

I wouldn't.

[door opens]

What a beautiful sentiment.

Damon:
Seriously?

You can't knock?

Sorry. I didn't realize

We were standing
on formalities.

What the hell are
you doing here?

You didn't get the memo?

I'm here to talk
some sense

Into poor emotionless
elena.

Are you out of your mind?

You got a better
idea, prom king?

Unless you want me
to lock you up

In there with her, I
suggest you shut up

And let the adults
handle this.

Rebekah: Well, it looks
like the lunatics

Have taken over
the asylum.

Where are you going?

I'm calling
caroline.

There's no way we're
letting that psycho

In there with elena.

[crickets chirping]

Caroline!
Aah! Oh.

Where have you been?
Matt!

We have to get
out of here.

No, caroline.
Caroline, wait. It's ok.

No, it's not ok.

Silas is out there.

And he made me think
that he was klaus...

What are you talking about?
What's silas want with you?

He's trying to get
to bonnie.

Do you know where
bonnie is?

If I knew where she was,

I wouldn't bother
with you.

Now, get me bonnie, or
I'm going to kill someone.

Maybe I'll start
with your mother.

[loud gasp]

No one in the house
can help you.

Find bonnie or I'll
kill the person

You love the most.

[screams]

[telephone rings]

I know. I promised
I wouldn't work too late.

Mom, I need you
to get home

And lock all
the doors right now.

Don't let anyone
inside,

Not even me because
I have a key,

So I can let
myself in.

Do you understand?

Mom: What's going on?

Just do it, ok?
I'm on my way.

[monitor beeping]

[brakes squeal]

[screaming]

Oh, honey,
you look awful.

What the hell are
you doing here?

Your boyfriends
invited me.

They want to know if
you still have a heart.

There it is.

Your bodyguards
won't let me kill you,

But I can rip
your throat out.

So I don't have
to listen to you whine.

But first, satisfy
my curiosity.

What did you tell elijah
back in willoughby?

That's why
you're here.

He dumped you,
didn't he?

Now you're just looking
for a scapegoat.

Tell me what you said
to turn him against me

Or I will feed you
your own eyeballs.

I didn't have
to say anything.

Look at you.

A self-obsessed
egomaniac

On the run
for 5 centuries.

What good would you
be to anyone?

You're the definition
of damaged goods.

No wonder elijah
left you.

Yeah, I've done some
pretty horrible things

To survive.

But unlike you,
poor, delicate elena,

I don't turn it off.

I deal with it.

You wouldn't last a week
as a vampire

Without everyone
fawning over you.

But I'd love to see
you try.

All that pain
and torture of her

Took quite a thirst.

It couldn't have
anything to do

With the fact that
elena called you out

On your recent boy
trouble, could it?

Sorry. I couldn't
help but overhear.

Did you ever think elena
would have been better off

If she'd never met you?

You're trying to get
a rise out of me?

Because my emotions
are fine.

I love elena.
I despise you.

Mm, so romantic.

So doomed to fail.

You know, as soon as she
goes back to her old self,

She'll go straight
to stefan.

That's the tragedy
of you.

You never get the girl.

She's gone.
What?

Elena's not in her cell.
I'm gonna check the grounds.

Find out what she did.

[mock surprise]
oops. Did I forget

To lock her in?

Let's just say

I've lost interest
in elena's recovery.

I'd rather watch her tear
through an orphanage. Heh heh.

Imagine trying to come back

From a spiral like that.

Elena's gone?
What happened?

Damon: Donovan,
you're coming with me.

Why should he?

Because elena's
hungry and missing.

For once, his life

Might actually
have a purpose.

Bonnie, why aren't
you answering?

Silas isn't going
to just give up.

You're the only one that
can stop him. Call me.

[beep]

Caroline,
what's going on?

Mom, don't come
any closer. Stop.

What's wrong?

I don't know how to tell
if it's really you.

What if this is
another trick?

Well, he
can get in my head.

And he would have known
that I called you.

Ok, caroline. It's me.

It's your mother.

I don't know
what's happening,

But everything's
going to be ok.

All right?

You just need
to talk to me.

[rings]

[ring]

Hi. How's it going?

Oh, good.

Ugh. Ahh.

Please help me.

Matt.

Thank god you found me.

Elena, stop. I know you
don't want to do this.

I know you don't
want to hurt me.

I'm a vampire, matt.

The thing about vampires
is that we need to feed.

No, but you're more
than that.

You're my friend.
You're my oldest friend.

You're the girl that
I've loved longer

Than I can remember.

Whatever wall you
want to put up,

I know that still means
something to you.

Deep down...

It probably does
mean something...

But I am really hungry.

Bonnie hasn't
called back yet.

I just don't understand
why she hasn't called.

[knock on door]

Caroline?

There you are.

What's going on?

Are you all right?

I've been calling you
for hours.

Sorry. I came as soon
as I got the message.

[knob half-turns]

Caroline, let me in.

Let me help.

How do I know
it's you?

Silas keeps getting
in my head,

He says he wants to
know where you are.

He threatened
my mother.

Caroline?

Mom, just stay there.

Caroline, that is
not your mother.

What's going on?

Oh, my god.

Did you really think
you could hide from me,

Bonnie?

I'm here now. What did
you do to her mother?

She's right where
you left her.

Mom?

Mom! Ohh...

I thought you and I
were on the same side.

We are. The full moon
isn't for two more days.

I've been gathering
my strength,

Preparing myself.

You're the only one
who can do this spell.

So I can't hurt you.

But I can hurt
the people you love.

You do understand
that, right?

I understand.
I will do your spell.

I will drop the veil.
And I will help you die.

I promise.

Just don't hurt
my friends.

Come on. Please.
Please, please, please.

Mom...

Your promise is
binding, bonnie.

If you break it, you
have to answer to me.

I won't break it.

Then you should leave
this house right now.

And the next time I
come looking for you,

I expect you
to be waiting.

Caroline:
Open--open your eyes, mom.

You need my blood in
your system. Come on.

Mom.

Please, mom. Please...

Mom...

Mom?

Oh, come on. I barely
drained an artery.

Come on. Get up.
I'm hungry.

And my head's fuzzy.
I can't think straight.

I need more.

Elena, stop.

But you're so good.

Stefan: Hey, hey.

You're cut off.

Let go of me.

Stop it.
Damon: Enough.

You are acting like
a little spoiled brat.

You know that?

You think that we
can't punish you.

Maybe not.

But I can sure
punish him.

[weakly]
elena.

Seriously?
You think this is...

Damon: Shut up.

I'm done playing nice.

Turn your emotions back
on right now, elena,

Or so help me, god,
I will give you

Something
to be sad about.

I will kill him right
here in front of you.

Damon.

Don't "damon" me.

If she doesn't
love anyone, fine.

Prove it.

And if I'm wrong, what
difference does it make?

One less bus boy.

Elena...

You're bluffing.

How about now?

You feel
anything now?

You angry I just
turned your buddy

Into road kill?

Or are you sad

That the guy that
everybody loves is

Just a bag of bones?

Remember when he was
a little kid, huh?

Warm heart,
big, goofy smile,

His whole life
ahead of him.

I guess it was
a good idea that he

Was wearing this.

Oh, god, matt.

You feeling that weight
lifting off your chest?

That's joy.

Because your friend
isn't dead.

That's emotion,
elena.

That's humanity.

[elena sobbing]

You're gonna be ok.

No.
Look at me.

No. No. No. It's not ok.

Elena.

What have I done?

Hey.
No, no.

What did I do?
I almost killed him.

Matt. I almost--
and then bonnie

And caroline.
I just--no, no.

I mean, the woman,
the waitress.

I actually killed
that waitress.

Hey, hey.
No! I killed...

That waitress.

Hey. Elena.
Hey. Hey.

Look at me. Look at me.

I know this stage, ok?

The emotions are
overwhelming you.

You just have to focus
on one thing, ok?

[sobbing]
no, I can't. I can't.

You just find that
one thing inside of you

That makes you strong.

It's in there.

Just latch on to it.

Channel everything
you're feeling

Into that one emotion.

Find the thing inside of
you that makes you

Want to live.

Elena, let it in.

Let it in.

[music playing]

That's good.

That's it.

That's it.

Just breathe it in. Blow
everything else out.

That's good.

That's good.

[sobbing loudly]

You ok?

No.

I'm not ok.

But I'll get better.

Come on.

Ok, this will work.

[groans]

Mom?

Open your eyes.
Come on.

Wake up. You
have to wake up.

You have to see
me graduate.

I swear I'll get...

I swear I'll get you
out of this town

And find you
a nice man.

[sobbing]

[coughing]

Mom!

[laughing and sobbing]

Ok.

[gasping]

I've never actually
seen that ring

In action before.

Does it hurt?

You mean getting
my neck snapped

Or coming back
from the dead?

Because they both hurt
like hell.

Did it work?

Well, it looks
like elena's

Emotional floodgates
have been burst

Wide open.

So she'll be back
to her dull,

Sympathetic self
in no time.

Here.

That was a brave
thing to do.

She saved me from drowning
at the bottom of that river.

I'm just doing what I can
to pay her back.

There aren't enough
apologies in the world

For the part that
I played in this.

Running you off
the bridge,

Elena becoming
a vampire

To save you.

If you don't want me
to cheat you

Into college, fine.

We'll do it
the hard way.

But, matt...

I will spend every
day until graduation

Trying to find a way
to pay you back.

[music playing on jukebox]

I'm perfectly aware
that tombstone

Isn't just a hunk of rock.

No kidding.

And it got me thinking,

All big spells require
a source of power,

A recurring element
like a full moon,

A comet.

But that tombstone is
filled with the blood

Of your ancient relative
katsooyay or whatever.

[ket-see-uh]
qetsiyah.

She was powerful enough
to create the other side.

So maybe if you
have her blood,

You don't need a full
moon to drop the veil.

Maybe you can do it
whenever you want.

The thing I can't
figure out is

Why do you want to drop
the veil at all?

I have my reasons.

And again, I ask,

What's in it for me?

You'll get the one
thing

You want most
in this world--

Freedom, survival.

Never having to run
from anyone again.

Once I've dropped
the veil,

I can speak to
qetsiyah.

She created the spell
that made silas

Truly immortal,
invulnerable

To any weapon.

You'd like that
for yourself,

Wouldn't you?

I can give it to you.

Bonnie bennett,
we have a deal.

[music playing]

Hey...

There you go.

How you feeling?

The pain's still there.

The grief...

And shame.

I get it now.

Shutting it off,
it's a cheat.

I mean, you put up
this wall

And shut out everything
that makes you who you are.

Nothing affects you,
nothing matters.

But things do matter--

Things that happen that
can't be undone.

And now I know there's
something I need to do

About that.

Elena, what you
need to do is rest,

Take it easy for
a couple of days.

Maybe even a couple
of years. Here.

I--I'm done resting.
I have to get ready.

There's so much
that I have to do.

Damon: Whoa. Hey.

What are you
talking about?

Think about it.
It's so obvious.

Go back far enough,

There's one person who
brought us to this...

Who ruined our lives...

And look at you two.

Everything that's happened
to you, she did that.

She brought klaus
to mystic falls,

She turned caroline
into a vampire.

She killed my brother.

It all comes down
to her--katherine.

Ok, stefan said to focus
on one thing, so I did.

I focused on hate.

And I hate her so much.

Well, I don't think
that's what he meant.

Elena, katherine's
not worth your time.

Even if you spend 10
minutes of your life

Hating her,
she wins.

Not if I kill her.
