Nice car.

I thought it was a waste

To leave it sitting in the garage.

I didn't kno you were coming back today.

You know, I woke up this morning

And I was feeling great,

And I figured it was time for me to get back into things.

Does the mean you're ok now?

With all the cravings?

Yeah. I mean, the worst part is over.

So...now all I want to do

Is just spend as much time with you as possible.

I'm ok with that.

Hey, thank you.

For helping me get through the--

The rough patch.

You're welcome.

We're going to be late.

Ok, um, you know what,

I'll catch up with you. I'm gonna grab my stuff.

I'll be right behind you.

Ok. Ok.

There was a disturbance at the hospital blood bank last night.

Some of the supply was compromised.

Compromised? You mean stolen.

We almost missed it.

The inventory records were altered,

But when the night manager was questioned,

He had no recollection of changing them.

Meaning the vampire who stole the blood

Used mind control to hide the theft.

I know what she meant.

We wouldn't have noticed if John not alerted us

To recent discrepancies

At other hospital blood banks in the county.

How lucky for us, we have John.

We're stepping up security at the hospital,

Giving the guards vervain

To prevent this from happening again.

Sheriff, might I offer a suggestion?

Why don't Damon and I put our heads together?

We can track down whoever's doing this.

Truthfully, I could use the extra hands.

Is that something you'd be willing to do?

Well, of course, I mean, if it'll help.

I think we'll make a good team.

Don't you, Damon?

John, whatever I can do to help keep this town safe,

Even if it means spending time with you.

Ok.

This week we're going to set aside our

Regular curriculum for a lesson in local history

As we approach founder's day.

Apparently the community leaders

Feel that's more important than world war ii,

But hey, what do I know?

Sorry I'm late.

Looks like we will be at full occupancy today.

Welcome home, Bonnie.

Right, founder's day.

What does it mean to have a founder's day?

Well, if you'll turn your attention to this

Exquisite diorama over here

That I spent all night...

I suppose I should be grateful

You learned how to use the bell.

I'm here on behalf of my mother.

On behalf of or in spite of?

I'm sorry about what the other vampires did to Stefan.

Abducting him, torturing him.

It wasn't supposed to go down like that.

You were playing house with half of a tomb

Of really pissed off vampires.

What did you think was going to happen?

My mom is devastated. They tried to overthrow her.

Why isn't she here telling me this?

She doesn't really do apologies.

Well, that's a coincidence,

'cause I don'to forgiveness,

So just run along.

And if you're going to continue

Playing house with your little vampire pets,

You might want to stop robbing the blood bank dry,

Because they're onto it.

I haven't been to the local blood bank in at least a week.

Then it's one of your others.

The other ones are gone, Damon.

Well, where'd they go?

They weren't cut out for this town.

After what happened with your brother,

My mom kicked them out and they took off.

It's just us and Harper now.

Bonnie.

Hey.

Hey, I, um, I tried to grab you after class

But you'd already taken off.

How are you? How's your family?

We're dealing. It's been hard.

Everyone here really missed you.

Yeah, I just had so much to deal with

After grams' funeral,

And honestly after you told me that the tomb's spell failed,

I just didn't really want to come back.

I hope you understand why I called.

I wanted you to know before you came home.

Yeah, I understand why. I just wish I didn't know.

I know it's been really hard--

Bonnie!

Bonnie! Thank God you're home!

I know we talked every day, but I missed you!

How are you doing?

Better. Just better. You know,

Just glad to be back,

And try to keep myself busy.

Well, I can help with that.

Major wardrobe confab needed asap.

You need to help me pick the perfect dress

For the founder's court. Oh.

The founder's court? Did I miss something?

The founder's court.

You know, miss mystic falls.

They announced it today, and, um,

You and are both on it.

Oh, my God, we signed up for that so long ago.

I completely forgot.

Yeah.

So are you dropping out, then?

I can't.

No?

Her mom is the one who wanted her to enter.

How was school?

Fine.

Yeah? Same old, same old?

Nothing new?

No stories to bring home?

You're making small talk, why?

You seem awfully chipper lately.

Less doom and gloom, a little more pep in your step.

And you think it's because I drank human blood again.

I mean, I don't want to brag,

But I would definitely take responsibility

For this new and improved you.

Right, right. Well, I hate to burst your bubble,

But I'm clean.

Yeah, not possible.

Not only is it possible, but it is quite true.

Stefan, let's be serious for a second.

You spent the last century and a half

Being a poster child for Prozac,

And now you expect me to believe that this new you

Has nothing to do with human blood, nothing.

I'm clean.

You're lying!

Believe what you want.

I'm sorry for the short notice.

I didn't even know that the contest was coming up,

Much less that I would be in it.

Well, I'll be happy to escort you anywhere.

My mom was really into this founder's day stuff.

She was even miss mystic in her day.

I kinda wanted to do it for her.

Well, it'll be great.

We'll have fun.

Ok. I'll see tomorrow. I love you.

Love you, too.

Well, well.

He's a liar and a thief.

So...

When were you going to share?

Go ahead.

Help yourself. No, no, I'm talking about

The fact that you're a closet blood nknk.

So I'm drinking blood again.

You're the one that shoved it on me.

What's your problem?

I have it under control. Under control?

You robbed the hospital.

So what's your point?

Fine. Whatever, man. Drink up.

Just remember we're trying to keep a low profile.

Why don't you just walk up

To sheriff Forbes, ask her to tap a vein.

Have my actions negatively impacted you?

Ooh. I can't imagine what that must feel like.

Yeah, what's Elena think about the new...you?

Noing's changed. I'm still the same person.

Clearly.

Elena doesn't need to know anything yet.

You've been off the human stuff for years, Stefan.

If you're having trouble controlling--

I'm not having any trouble.

Who do you think you're talking to?

I know what it's like.

That Jekyll and Hyde feeling.

There's that switch, sometimes it goes off and you snap.

Right now is not a good time for me

To be worried about you snapping.

I know that it pains you to see this.

Hmm.

But I'm fine, ok?

I'm fine.

So please,

Do me a favor.

And back off.

This year's queen will have

The special honor of taking center stage

AT THE 150th FOUNDER'S DAY GALA.

Before we crown our winner,

We'd like to get to know

A bit more about each of you.

I'm on the m.F. Beautification committee.

I volunteer at the rec center soup kitchen.

I recognize that I haven't been as involved this year

As I used to be.

I implemented this year's go green campaign at school.

I've been distracted, and I let a lot of things slide.

I don't think it's wrong for me to win 2 years in a row.

I was surprised to have been selected.

Since I'm not from one of the founding families.

But I'm aware of what an honor this is,

And I want you to know that I take it seriously.

Worked with the county's recycling program

And was in charge of the policemen's yearly raffle.

Just because my DUI made my community service mandatory,

Doesn't mean I was any less committed.

This was really important to my mother.

She believed in community,

Family, honor and loyalty.

It's the legacy e e ft for me.

Hey, partner.

What do you want?

You haven't returned any of my calls.

Most people take that as a hint.

Why don't we start looking for vampires?

Why the act, John?

I mean, you obviously don't care about catching vampires.

You're here talking to me.

Actually, I care very much.

What did Isobel say about that?

I mean, considering that she is one.

Isobel and I share a mutual interest.

The originalJohnathan Gilbert had an invention

That was stolen by a vampire.

That vampire was then burned alive

In fell's church, or soJohnathan thought.

And the invention was lost forever.

Hmm.

But then the vampires weren't killed, were they?

They were trapped.

And now they're free, thanks to you,

Which means the invention is retrievable.

Well, what is it?

The only thing that matters is that I want it back,

And you're going to help me if you want your secret safe.

I mean, why bring me into it, John?

I mean, I don't even know what you're talking about,

Much less who has it.

Oh, come on, Damon.

You were around back then.

Yoknow who these people are, what they look like.

He was friendly with a woman

Who turned out to be a vampire.

Her name was pearl.

Does that ring a bell?

I'm not playing anymore.

Get out.

Get out.

I beg your pardon?

You know, I only entertain

This whole blackmail scheme thing of yours

Because I thought that you and Isobel could lead me to Katherine.

But see, now I know you have no idea where Katherine is,

Because if you did, you would know

That Katherine and pearl

Were best friends.

See, you don't know everything,

Do you, John?

I'll tell the entire council what you are.

Go for it. I'll kill every last one of them.

Then I'll sever your hand, pull your ring off,

And I'll kill you, too.

Do you understand that?

Honor your partner.

Let's focus. Right hand around.

Flirt with your eyes.

Left hand around.

This is ridiculous.

Both hands. You're only saying that

Because you don't know how to do it.

Sorry only one of us was around

When the dance was invented.

Ouch! Oooh!

Oh, no, no, no, no.

There's no touching during this part.

It's about the simple intimacy of the near-touch.

Very nice, Amber.

Thank you, Mrs. Lockwood!

If you ask me, the near touch is overrated.

You seem to be in a good mood.

Is that a bad thing?

Would you prefer me to be brooding and tortured?

Hey, I'm not complaining.

Oh, no touching.

The fell cousins don't have a shot.

And Amber Bradley is only on the court

So the pageant doesn't look like it's founding families only.

Which, of course, it is.

So that leaves Elena.

She totally has the sympathy vote since her parents died.

How can I compete with that?

Very nice.

Very sensitive.

Oh, I'm sorry. This must sound

Really unimportant in light of everything.

It's ok. I get it.

You want to win.

Well, my grandmother was miss mystic.

And both of my aunts.

My mom's the only one who didn't get the gene,

And I want this.

I mean, I actually deserve this.

Bonnie.

Hey. Hey.

How are you?

I begged Bonnie to fill in for Matt.

He had to work today.

Bonnie, do you have a minute?

We only have 30 minutes for rehearsal.

It'll only take a minute.

Please?

Bonnie, you have to tell me what's wrong.

It's not worth talking about.

What do you mean, not worth it?

You've barely said 10 words to me,

And you won't even look at Stefan.

Is that what it is, is it Stefan?

Listen.

Elena, I can't just pretend

Like everything is ok.

Everything my grams did was to protect us

From those vampires in the tomb.

And now they're out, which means she died for nothing.

I'm so sorry, Bonnie.

What can I do to make it better?

That's just it.

There's nothing you can do.

I blame him, Elena.

Him and Damon.

And I'm not going to put you in a situation

Where you have to choose sides.

I'm just having a hard time with it.

Ok?

Dude, are you ok? You're bleeding.

Ahh, Stefan!

Are you ok?

Yes. I'm sorry.

I was just...

I was feeling a little sick.

I'll be fine.

Hey. Hi.

I heard you're driving. Yeah, I am.

Let me get that for you.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Um, how, uh--

How is Stefan?

What do you mean?

You know, he seems on edge.

He went through a lot,

He was in bad shape for a while.

But he's bouncing back now.

Alaric.

Hey, buddy. What are you doing here?

Well, I'm the chauffer.

Oh, I thought I was driving.

Oh, no need.

We're going with Rick.

Are we ready?

Jeremy can ride with you.

In the running for miss mystic falls?

Somememis you have to wear uncomfortable heels to blend in.

I remember this event from 1864.

I was supposed to enter,

Before everything happened.

Ahh, nostalgia's a bitch.

If you're just going to mock me,

Then you move along, please.

John Gilbert thinks your mom stole an artifact

FromJohnathan sr. Sr. Back in 1864.

What are you, his errand boy?

I don't know what it is,

But I don't want him to have it.

I could ask her.

But, you know, you've made it pretty clear

That you don't trust us,

So why should I even bother?

Because you want to stay in mystic falls,

And John Gilbert's in town, making that impossible.

Find out where it is.

He leaves, you can buy a welcome mat.

Thanks for helping me.

Don't thank me

Until you're sure your hair isn't going to burn off.

You know, I remember

When my mom and I were first applying for this.

She was so excited.

So were you, if I recall.

I was.

She just made it sound like so much fun.

Lots has changed since then.

Well, I hate to break it to you,

But it's a little late for cold feet.

I don't have cold feet. I just...

I think I'd be enjoying it a lot more if she was here.

I'll tell you one thing,

Your hair would have a better chance if she was.

Ok, I should go put my dress on.

Be careful with that thing.

Don't hurt anybody.

You look miserable.

Are there really a whole month of these events

That I'm supposed to show up at?

You can fight it if you want,

But it's part of being a Gilbert.

Yeah, you, uh, you mentioned you know a lot about the family.

Do you know anything about our ancestorJohnathan Gilbert?

Prolific writer, crazy inventor.

Why do you ask?

Well, I read his journal.

Is that right?

Yeah.

I actually found it in all dad's stuff.

Well, that's surprising.

Most of them are locked away.

There's more of them?

Johnathan Gilbert journaled his whole life.

Right down to the bitter, insane drunken end.

Guy had a lot of demons.

And did you read 'em?

I browsed, yeah.

What'd you think about what he wrote?

Crazy ramblings of a mad man, of course.

Well, she's very pretty.

Yeah, yeah, she's a, uh,

A friend of mine. Excuse me.

Are you ok, Amber?

I hate being the center of attention.

I get panic attacks.

Do you need some privacy so you can change?

Actually, I'm just- I'm just going to go get some air.

You can't be back here.

We need to talk.

Does it have to be right now?

Normally I would have a completely different outlook

On what I'm about to tell you,

But since it could really inconvenience me,

I'll squeal.

What are you talking about?

Stefan's still drinking human blood.

What? Yeah.

A month ago, I would have rejoiced.

But with the council back on the alert,

It is not a good time for Stefan to fly off the handle.

I know he's been a little edgy,

But he said that was normal.

He has a fridge full of stolen blood bank contraband

In the house.

Oh, my God.

He has no idea what normal is.

His entire existence isn't normal.

Normal to a vampire is drinking human blood.

But he spent all this time fighting it

When he should have been learning how to control it.

And now it's controlling him instead.

I can't believe this.

I mean, it's Stefan that we're talking about here.

Stefan on human blood, Elena.

He'll do anything, he'll say anything,

Because he's not going to want to stop.

Trust me.

Anna!

What is it?

Come on, don't be like that.

Why not?

You're basically using me to turn you into a vampire

So you could be with someone else.

No, I wasn't using you.

Really?

Then how would you like to define it?

Look, I don't think it's any worse

Than becoming friends with me

So you could give your mother my blood.

How do you know that?

That's not important.

Seriously, Jeremy.

What do you know?

Everything. I know everything.

This is all my fault.

I'm the one who fed him the blood in the first place.

What's going on in here?

Just filling Elena in

On your extracurricular activities.

What are you talking about?

I know about the blood, Stefan.

I'm gonna-- I'll be downstairs,

Drinking.

I was going to tell you.

When?

I'm fine.

I'm fine. The blood, it doesn't change anything.

It's changing you.

Why, because I kept it a secret from you?

Come on, Elena.

Look, given the way that you're reacting right now,

Can you really blame me for doing that?

Are you hearing yourself right now?

You've been stealing blood and lying,

And you say that everything's fine?

Everything's not fine, Stefan.

So what, so you and Damon

All of a sudden have everythgg figured out then?

It's not about Damon.

It's about what's happening to you.

I know, and I'm telling you that I'm fine.

I'm fine.

Please, come on.

Elena, I thought you...

I thought you believed in me.

Elena? Let's go. The line up's starting.

I just--

I need a minute.

You're not even dressed yet.

Escorts wait downstairs, Stefan.

God!

Oh, God, sorry!

Ms. Tina fell,

Escorted by bartholomew Whitmore.

Has anyone seen Amber?

Do you see Stefan down there?

Nope.

Just my boring fill-in escort.

What happened to Matt?

They wouldn't let him out of work.

Hey, what happened to Stefan?

I don't know. He just disappeared somewhere.

I don't know.

What am I doing?

I never should have gone through with this.

What do you mean? I need to find Stefan.

This isn't me. I'm not this person anymore.

Uh, no, no, no, no way, no.

You had your chance to drop out.

And believe me, I was all for it.

Because there is no way that I can beat you.

Elena, you're doing this because it was important to your mom.

Ms. Caroline Forbes,

And her escort Jeffrey lockwood Hamilton.

Elena, you're next. Come on.

You're missing Elena's introduction.

I don't care.

So she has no idea you read her journal?

She keeps things from me,

I'm going to keep things from her.

What are you going to do now?

Now that you know everything that she's been hiding from you?

I don't know.

There's a part of me that's so angry, you know,

That she covered up what happened to vickie

And erased my memory,

But there's this other part of me that's glad.

I--

I don't want to remember vickie like that.

As a monster?

No, as someone who wanted to hurt me.

When I met you,

You were just a part of my plan to get my mother back.

But then things changed.

All the time we spent together.

I would never do anything to hurt you. Not now.

You know that, right?

Yeah, I know that.

Where are we going?

I don't know.

I'm in the ceremony.

Not now, you're not.

You're standing in the parking lot with me.

I'm in the parking lot with you.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm not very good to be around right now.

I'm a little bit on edge.

I've--I've been drinking the human stuff

And it's really screwing with my head.

Oh! she knows now.

God, she wasn't supposed to find out.

I didn't want her to find out, now everything's ruined.

You seem sad.

I'm not sad!

I'm freaking hungry!

Ms. Elena Gilbert,

Escorted by Mr. Stefan salvatore.

Where's Stefan? I don't know.

What is she doing with Damon?

I have no idea.

What are we going to do?

Right now we just have to get through this.

I don't hurt people.

I don't do that.

I'm the good brother.

Do you want to hurt me?

I want to kill you.

I want to rip into your skin,

And I want to feed on your blood.

Under your skin,

Pulsating, flowing.

Your carotid artery, right there.

If you puncture this just right,

You can control the blood flow.

It takes practice,

But it doesn't have to make a mess.

You don't have to waste any.

What's stopping you?

If I do this,

If I give in, there's no going back.

Then don't.

I just want one taste.

That's all I need. Just one more tast

One taste?

Where's Amber?

I don't know.

Before I crown the winner,

I'd like to offer a personal thank you

To all of these young ladies for their efforts

To better our communities.

So, without further adieu,

It is my honor to announce our very own miss mystic falls,

Ms. Caroline Forbes!

Congratulations!

I actually won!

??

Get me Damon salvatore.

I can't do this!

What's the matter? I can't do this.

It's ok.

It doesn't hurt that much.

Just not so hard next time.

Oh, God, oh, God, oh, God.

I can't stop.

I can't stop.

Why aren't you afraid of me, huh?

You told me not to be.

What?

What's your name?

Amber.

Listen to me, Amber.

I need you to be afraid of me.

I need you to run like hell,

Do you understand me?

Run, run, now!

What is it, did you find h?

There were signs of struggle in the upstairs bathroom.

There was blood.

And that Amber girl is missing.

Oh, my God.

He wouldn't hurt her.

He won't.

Let's just find him, ok?

Let's get your coat, come on.

You said to run!

I changed my mind.

Stefan! oh!

Stefan.

Come on. Get control of it. Come on.

It's ok. Come on.

Breathe through it, man.

Stefan, stop it!

It's ok.

Stefan.

She doesn't remember what happened.

It's a good thing the girls got here when they did.

She lost a lot of blood.

You didn't see anything?

No. We just found her

And then called Damon.

She gonna be ok?

Looks like it, yeah.

Why don't you girls get back to the party.

Damon and I can take it from here.

Yeah. Ok.

They didn't see the bite mark?

No, I got here before they got too close.

There was too much blood, they couldn't see it clearly.

Bonnie, can we talk about this?

There's nothing to talk about.

Bonnie, please.

I told you I wasn't going to make you choose,

But I need to make the choice for myself.

Please just leave me alone.

Jer.

You ready?

Uh, just a second.

Who's that girl with Jeremy?

His friend Anna.

What's her story?

Why so nosy? I'm just curious.

He really seems to like her.

She's new in town, I think.

She and her mom, pearl.

The family you're so rudely trying to prevent

From buying Grayson's building.

Her mother's name is pearl?

Yes, so?

Well, I believe I already know all about her.

Oh, good, there you are. Jenna wanted me

To get the car.

What happened?

All right, now this is getting weird.

We're here to talk.

I'm not in the mood. Today's been

A no-good, very bad day.

Annabelle tells me you're looking for something

I took fromJohnathan Gilbert.

I'm listening.

What is that?

Johnathan was passionate about his inventions.

He confided in me that he had created a detection device

Meant to track down the town's vampire element.

It was a pocket watch.

That's what it turned out to be, yes.

But that's not what I stole.

I discovered my mistake when I saw the watch in Johnathan's hand

The night they took us.

Its dial pointed at me.

So what is this? I have no idea.

But now it's yours.

What's the catch?

There's no catch.

My daughter wants to stay here.

I want to stay here.

You refuse to trust us, and for good reason.

Consider this an apology.

You shouldn't be here.

I know.

Now you know.

That wasn't you.

Oh, it was absolutely me.

I'a monster predator.

It's who I am, Elena.

That's what the blood makes you.

The blood brings out what's inside of me.

And if you think any differently, then you're an idiot.

I know this isn't you, Stefan.

I wanted to drain

Every ounce of blood from that girl's body.

- No. - It's who I am, Elena.

No. You can't scare me off.

Why would you risk it?

Why would you come here?

Because I did this.

This is my fault.

I'm the one who made you drink the blood.

All you did was expose me to who I really am.

This isn't you.

Stop saying that!

Don't get any closer to me.

I'm not going to let this happen to you.

Stop.

Stefan, I'm not going to give up on you.

Stop!

Stop!

I'm so sorry.

It's ok.

It's ok.

I don't know what's happening to me.

It's ok, Stefan, shhh.

It's ok.

It's ok.

You're gonna be ok.

Sure you want to do this?

I'm sure.

There's no guarantee this is going to work.

It has to.

You comin'?

I'm gonna stay here.
