(Trevor is speaking with a woman. He rejoins Elijah)
Elijah: Ah, good evening, Trevor. I am pleased you could join us
Trevor: I could not miss the birthday celebration
Elijah: No, considering the gift you claim to bear. Where is this mystery girl of which you speak?
Trevor: Right this way
(Elijah follows him. They rejoin Katherine)
Trevor: My dear
Katherine: Hello

[Salvatore's house]
(He closes her eyes. Elena gets closer but his body writhes. He gets up)
Elijah: I can't-- I can't breathe! What's happening to me?
(He rushes over the door but stammers the door. She rushes over him and holds him)
Elijah: I can't... I can't be in this house
(She realizes something)
Elena: You're not invited in
Elijah: I can't be in here
(He stammers another wall and disappears. Elena runs after him and goes to the front door. Elijah is outside. He tries to enter but he can't enter)
Elijah: What happened?
Elena: Shh!
(She shows him that Stefan and Damon can hear and she whispers)
Elena: I'll tell you. Not here. Can I trust you?
(He whispers too)
Elijah: Can I trust you?
(She gives him the dagger. He takes it)
[Salvatore's House]
(Stefan is in his bedroom. He wakes up Elena's not here. He goes downstairs)
Stefan: Elena!
(Andie is here)
Stefan: Hey
Andie: Hey
Stefan: Have you seen Elena?
Andie: Uh, no
(Damon rejoins her)
Damon: Hi, sweetie. Oh, my coffee
(He kisses her)
Damon: Good morning
Andie: Mm, good morning
Stefan: Hey, where's Elena?
Damon: I don't know, Stefan. It's your girlfriend. Mine's right here
(He looks at Andie)
Damon: Oh, and how's the shoulder? Got time for a bite? I'm so hungry
Andie: Oh, it's really messy. Can you just use a blood bag today?
(Stefan is on the phone and looks at them)
Andie: I'm already late for work
Damon: No!
(He pouts. Stefan leaves a message to Elena)
Stefan: Hey, it's me. Where are you? Call me
(He hangs up. Damon and Andie are kissing)
Stefan: What are you doing? She's not a wind-up toy
(Andie looks at him)
Andie: It's really none of your business, is it, Stefan?
Damon: Yeah. What she said
Andie: I have to go to work
(She kisses him)
Damon: Ugh! Bye
(She leaves. Stefan sees that the basement door is open. He rushes over it. Damon follows him. Stefan arrives at the cellar and sees that Elijah's not here. Damon rejoins him)
Damon: No, she didn't
[Alaric's apartment]
(Klaus/Alaric is at the door with Maddox. Katherine is making coffee)
Maddox: I'll be back as soon as I can
Klaus/Alaric: Yes, do hurry. I'm anxious to get out of this body. And if you get hung up, call me. You know how impatient I get
(Maddox leaves. Klaus/Alaric closes the door)
Katherine: Where is he going?
Klaus/Alaric: To retrieve me. So I can get out of this bad hair-do
Katherine: Are you sure that's a good idea, Klaus?
Klaus/Alaric: Well, the full moon is almost upon us
(He puts the moonstone on the table)
Klaus/Alaric: I've k*lled the witch, I have the moon stone, and the doppelganger is waiting in the wings. Ohh, I am ready to break this curse
Katherine: And why would you do that here? There's so many people that would try to stop you
Klaus/Alaric: Because I have to. It's the birth place of the doppelganger
Katherine: I didn't realize that was a requirement
Klaus/Alaric: Well, how could you? You betrayed me and fled England before I could give you the details, Katerina. But I did find your birth place and I slaughtered your family. So I guess we're cool. Let's just hope that Elena isn't as stupid as you are
Katherine: She won't run. She'll die before she lets anyone that she loves get hurt
Klaus/Alaric: And that's exactly what I'm counting on
(He compels her)
Klaus/Alaric: You can't leave until I tell you to
(He leaves)
[Elena's car]
(She parks her car. Elijah is next to her. He's drinking blood from a blood bag)
Elena: You look better
Elijah: Where did you get the dagger?
Elena: I'll tell you everything. But we have to work together, Elijah. I need your word
Elijah: Your ability to make demands has long passed
Elena: No demands. I'm offering you my help. And in return, I want yours
Elijah: And why should I even consider this?
Elena: The same reason that you haven't k*lled me. You need my help to k*ll Klaus. And I need you
(Her phone rings. She answers. It's Stefan)
Stefan: Where are you? Are you ok?
Elena: Yes, I'm fine
Stefan: Where's Elijah?
Elena: He's right here
Stefan: Where? I'm on my way
Elena: No, Stefan, Elijah and I need some time alone
Stefan: Listen to me. He can't be trusted He'll use you to get to Klaus
Elena: Elijah is a noble man, Stefan. He lives by a code of honor. I can trust him. He knows that I'd be incredibly stupid to betray him again. By removing the dagger, I have proven myself
Stefan: You can't do this alone
Elena: It's my decision, Stefan. Please respect it. And make sure that Damon doesn't do anything stupid. I'll be in touch
(She hangs up. Elijah holds his hand out. Elena gives him her phone)
[Salvatore's house]
Damon: Did she just hang up on you?
Stefan: She did
Damon: She's lost it
Stefan: If anyone can get him to help us k*ll Klaus, it's her
Damon: Bonnie's the way to k*ll Klaus, Stefan. He thinks she's dead. We have a chance with her
Stefan: She'll k*ll herself in the process. Elena's looking for another way
Damon: Her way's going to get her k*lled. So we need to find her and stop her
(He gets up. Stefan gets up too)
Stefan: No, you need to back off
Damon: What?!
Stefan: Look, I don't like this any more than you do. But we need to trust her. We gotta just let her do her thing
Damon: That might be your plan. Mine's better
(He tries to leave but Stefan catches his arm)
Stefan: I said back off
[Elena's car]
Elena: He's here
Elijah: Klaus is here?
Elena: He's taken over Alaric's body
Elijah: Of course he has. One of his favorite tricks
Elena: Well, what are his other tricks? What is he going to do next? You're the only one who knows him
Elijah: Yes, I do

(Elijah is with Katherine)
Katherine: So where is this mysterious host I've heard so much about?
Elijah: Fashionably late. He likes to make an entrance
(Elijah sees someone going down the stairs)
Elijah: Here he is
(Klaus is hidden by the crowd. Katherine is looking for him. She finally sees him. He rejoins them)
Elijah: Katerina, may I introduce to you the lord Nicklaus
(Klaus kisses her hand)
Klaus: Nicklaus is the name my father gave me. Please. Call me Klaus
(He smiles)

(Elijah knocks on the door. Carol opens it)
Carol: Elijah, Elena! What are you doing here? What happened?
Elijah: I've had a bit of an incident, Carol. I'm hoping you could help
Carol: Well, I'm on my way to a meeting, so I—
(He compels her)
Elijah: We won't take but a minute of your time
(She smiles)
Carol: Of course. Anything you need
Elijah: Thank you
(They enter)
Elijah: Well, first things first. I'm going to need a change of clothing
Carol: Well, we can try one of my husband's suits. I haven't boxed them up yet
Elijah: Wonderful
(She goes upstairs)
Elena: How did you know she's not on vervain?
Elijah: 'Cause I'm the one who got her off it. Right before you and your friends k*lled me. Twice. If you'll excuse me. I'll be done in a moment
(He goes upstairs)
[Salvatore's house]
(Stefan picks up his phone. It's Jenna. Damon is in the living room too)
Stefan: Hello?
Jenna: Hey, Stefan. It's Jenna
Stefan: Jenna, hey
Jenna: Where's Elena? And Jeremy? No one's answering their phones
Stefan: Ah, Elena's not here at the moment. Is, uh, is everything ok?
Jenna: She left me all these weird messages telling me to stay away from Rick. What's going on?
Stefan: It's really hard to explain over the phone, but, um, she was hoping that you could stay on campus for a little while longer
Jenna: Oh, that's kinda hard to do from my kitchen
Stefan: Wait, you're home?
Jenna: Yeah. What's going on? Where's Elena? I'm supposed to meet Rick at the grill for lunch, to talk
Stefan: Jenna, listen to me carefully. Whatever you do, do not meet Alaric at the grill. I'm going to come over right now and I'll explain everything
(He hangs up and looks at Damon, who's pouring himself a drink)
Damon: Wow, I'd love to lend you a hand, but you wouldn't want me doing anything stupid
Stefan: It's seriously going to be like this?
Damon: You and your girlfriend are calling the sh*ts. I'm just backing off, Stefan
(Stefan leaves. Andie rejoins Damon)
Damon: Hi
Andie: Hi
Damon: Let's go
Andie: Where are we going?
Damon: Splitting from the team. Going rogue. Come on
[Lockwood's mansion]
(Elijah and Elena are sitting on the living room. Elijah is wearing one of Mayor Lockwood's suits)
Elijah: So I assume that the Martin witches are no longer with us
Elena: No. I'm sorry
Elijah: And Katerina? She would have been released from my compulsion when I d*ed
Elena: Klaus took her. We think that she may be dead
Elijah: I doubt that. Not Klaus' style. Death would be too easy for her after what she did
Elena: I don't understand. You say that you want Klaus dead, but you still made Katherine pay for betraying him
Elijah: I have my own reasons for wanting Katerina to pay. There was a time... I'd have done anything for Klaus
England, 1492

Klaus: From where have you come, Katerina?
Katherine: I'm new to town, my lord
(Elijah looks at Klaus with a smile)
Elijah: Katerina is from Bulgaria
Klaus: Zradevei, Katerina
(She laughs)
Katherine: Very good
(Klaus looks at Elijah)
Klaus: Do you mind, brother? I would like to have a moment alone with her
Elijah: Not at all. Happy Birthday, brother
(Klaus smiles and leaves with Katherine)
Nowadays

Elijah: Yes. Klaus is my brother
Elena: I heard that. I'm still processing
Elijah: Yes, I'm a little behind on the times, but I believe the term you're searching for is "O.M.G."
(He drinks some tea)
[Alaric's apartment]
(Katherine is bored. She opens a cupboard and finds a bottle of bourbon. She takes it and smiles. She opens it, drinks but hears someone.)
(Damon and Andie are here. She knocks on the door)
Andie: Alaric, are you home? Andie-- Starr, Jenna's friend
(Katherine tries to open the door but she can't even touch the doorknob. Andie and Damon open the door)
Katherine: Thank God
(Andie enters)
Andie: Wow! You were right. She looks exactly like Elena
Damon: Yep
(He can't enter. He looks at Katherine)
Damon: Thought you might be dead
Katherine: Unfortunately not
[Gilbert's house]
(Jenna opens the door to Stefan)
Stefan: Hey, Jenna. Thank you so much for not going to the grill
Jenna: Um, Stefan…
Stefan: No, listen. I can explain
(She looks over Stefan's shoulder. He turns himself. Klaus/Alaric's here)
Klaus/Alaric: Hi, Stefan. How's it going?
[Lockwood's house]
Elena: There's a whole family of Originals?
Elijah: My father was a wealthy land owner in a village in Eastern Europe. Our mother bore seven children
Elena: So your parents were human?
Elijah: Our whole family was. Our origin as vampires is a very long story, Elena. Just know... We're the oldest vampires in the world. We are the Original family, and from us all, vampires were created
Elena: Right, but Klaus is your brother. And you want him dead?
Elijah: I need some air. I'm still feeling a tad... dead. Come
[Alaric's apartment]
Katherine: What are you doing here?
Andie: We are here to rescue you
Damon: No, sweetie. We are here to see if she deserves to be rescued
Andie: Right
Damon: I figured you still might be kicking. Alari-Klaus was blending way too easily. Figured he probably had some coaching
(He shows her a phial)
Katherine: Is that...
Damon: Vervain? Your salvation
Katherine: It's not going to undo anything
Damon: There's always a loophole. Did he tell you to stay in this apartment until he said it was ok to leave?
(She doesn't' answer)
Damon: You can't say. Did he tell you to do absolutely everything he says until the end of time?
Katherine: No
Damon: There's your loophole. Drink this and prevent any further compulsion
(She comes closer to take it but he doesn't give it to her)
Katherine: Give it to me
Damon: Answer one question first. You double-crossed us with Isobel, why?
Katherine: I didn't think you could stand a chance against Klaus, so I was looking out for myself
Damon: And where did that get you? Here
(He throws her the phial)
Damon: Be careful with that. If he finds out you have that, you're never getting out of here
(She drinks and coughs)
Damon: You owe me. And I will collect
(He looks at Andie)
Damon: Come on
Andie: Nice to meet you
(She closes the door)
[Gilbert's house]
(Klaus/Alaric is chopping some food with a big Kn*fe. Jenna and Stefan are looking at him)
Klaus/Alaric: You know, I find chopping... Calming. The feel of the blade in the hand, maybe
Jenna: I'm still waiting for someone to tell me what the hell's going on
Klaus/Alaric: Well, would you like to tell her, Stefan, or should I?
Jenna: Tell me what?
Klaus/Alaric: Do you believe in vampires, Jenna? No?
(He laughs)
Klaus/Alaric: Well, who does, right? But believe it or not, they do have a place in our history. And as a history teacher, I find them fascinating
Jenna: Why are we talking about this?
Klaus/Alaric: Well, you've been angry with me for keeping secrets, and this is one of my secrets. I'm obsessed with vampires. There. I said it
(He laughs)
Jenna: Are you joking?
Klaus/Alaric: Not at all. How about you, Stefan? Are you a fan of vampires?
Stefan: In literature. Bram Stoker. It's dense, but I appreciate it
Klaus/Alaric: Hmm. Did you know that vampires are the oldest creatures of the night? Except for werewolves, of course
Jenna: Werewolves. Werewolves. Now I know you're joking
Klaus/Alaric: You know, I've read that there's an Aztec curse on both species that keeps werewolves slaves to the Moon and vampires bound by the Sun. Isn't that right, Stefan? You know, they say these creatures would do anything to have this curse broken and that they wouldn't care who they had to k*ll to do it
[Lockwood's mansion]
(Elena and Elijah are walking outside)
Elijah: So as you've seen, nothing can k*ll an Original. Not Sun, not fire, not even a werewolf bite. Only the wood from one tree. A tree my family made sure b*rned
Elena: That's where the white ash for the dagger comes from
Elijah: Yes. The witches won't allow anything truly immortal to walk the earth. Every creature needs
to have a weakness in order to maintain the balance
Elena: So the Sun can't k*ll an Original. Why is Klaus so obsessed with breaking the Sun and Moon curse?
Elijah: Right. The curse of the Sun and the Moon. It's all so... Biblical-sounding, don't you think?
(He smiles)
Elena: What's so funny?
England, 1492
[A bedroom]
(Klaus is sitting on a chair. A woman is in front of him. Elijah's here too. He shows him a parchment.)
Elijah: Look what I found. The Roman parchment
Klaus: I remember etching this scroll. Well, I was quite blistered from drink
Elijah: Your finest work remains your Aztec drawings
Klaus: Not the African carvings? 'Cause I was quite proud of those
Elijah: The Aztec. Who can resist a shaman?
(Klaus laughs)
Klaus: Yes
Nowadays
[Lockwood's mansion]
Elena: I don't understand. So Klaus drew the Aztec sketches about the curse?
Elijah: Roman scrolls, African tribal etchings, and any other culture or continent we felt like planting in it
Elena: But why?
Elijah: Easiest way to discover the existence of a doppelganger or to get your hands on some long, lost moon stone is to have every single member of two warring species on the lookout
Elena: So it's not Aztec at all?
Elijah: The curse of the sun and the Moon... is fake. It doesn't exist
Elena: What?
[Gilbert's house]
(Alaric, Jenna and Stefan are sitting at the table)
Klaus/Alaric: Oh, I know this all sounds so crazy, but... vampires are real. Would you care for some more wine?
(He gets up to get a bottle of wine)
Jenna: Get out
Klaus/Alaric: Excuse me?
Jenna: I don't know what it is you're trying to do or why you're saying these things, but…
Klaus/Alaric: Jenna…
Jenna: I said get out!
(Stefan gets up)
Stefan: You heard her
Klaus/Alaric: I'm afraid I don't want to
Jenna: Fine! I'll go
(Klaus/Alaric catches the Kn*fe)
Klaus/Alaric: You're not going anywhere
(Stefan catches him and pushes him against the wall with his super speed and puts the Kn*fe on his throat)
Jenna: Stefan!
Stefan: Jenna, get out of here now!
Klaus/Alaric: You can't k*ll me, Stefan
Stefan: Watch me!
Jenna: Stefan!
Klaus/Alaric: I may not have a witch protecting me today, but if you k*ll this body, what's to stop me from choosing Jenna as my next one?
Stefan: Jenna, go
Jenna: But you're… you…
(He looks at her. His face has changed)
Stefan: I said go!
(She runs out of the house)
Klaus/Alaric: k*ll me. Just remind Elena how easy it will be for me to get my revenge if she tries to stop me from breaking this curse
(Stefan punches him on the face and once Klaus/Alaric is on the floor, he kicks him on the stomach. He throws the Kn*fe on the floor and leaves)
[Lockwood's mansion]
Elijah: Klaus and I faked the Sun and Moon curse dating back over a thousand years
Elena: But if there's no curse...
Elijah: There's a curse. Just not that one. The real one's much worse. It's a curse placed on Klaus
Elena: What are you talking about?
Elijah: Klaus has been trying to break it for the last thousand years. You are his only hope
(Elena's phone keeps vibrating in Elijah's pocket)
Elena: What is this curse?
(The phone is still vibrating)
Elijah: Your phone will not stop its incessant buzzing. Answer it, please
(He gives her the phone. She answers. It's Stefan)
Elena: Stefan… what's wrong? No. No, no, no, no. Ok, I'll be right there
(She hangs up and looks at Elijah)
Elena: Klaus went after Jenna. I have to go to her
Elijah: I'm afraid that wasn't part of today's arrangement
Elena: She's my family, Elijah. I have to. I'll be back. You have my word
Elijah: That doesn't mean anything to me until you live up to it
Elena: Thank you
(She runs to her car. Elijah looks at her)
England, 1492
(Elijah and Katherine are outside. She's running and laughing)
Katherine: You have to chase me!
(He runs after her but stops. She laughs)
Katherine: You're meant to catch me
Elijah: But if I catch you, the game will be over
Katherine: Thank you for entertaining me
Elijah: You seemed lonely inside, so I took pity on you
(She sits down)
Katherine: Klaus promised to spend the day with me, but he never returned home from the night
Elijah: Yes, Klaus does not live by any rules but his own
Katherine: He is a very charming man. Hard for anyone to resist, I suppose
Elijah: And yet...
Katherine: I know not why he courts me. He seems to not care about me at all
Elijah: Many a union has been built on much less
Katherine: Is it wrong to want more?
(He sits down with her)
Elijah: Did you have more with Trevor?
Katherine: Trevor believes that he loves me, but true love is not real unless it's returned. Do you agree?
Elijah: I do not believe in love, Katerina
Katherine: That is too sad for me to accept, my lord. Life is too cruel. If we cease to believe in love, why would we want to live?
(Klaus rejoins them)
Klaus: What do I interrupt?
Elijah: He's returned
(He looks at Klaus's shirt. There's blood on it)
Elijah: Long night
Katherine: What has happened?
Klaus: The wrong village picked a fight at the tavern
(She leaves with him. Klaus looks at Elijah with a smile. Katherine looks at Elijah too)
[Salvatore's house]
(Elena rejoins Jenna in the library)
Elena: Oh, Jenna, thank God
Jenna: No
Elena: I never meant for any of this to happen
Jenna: When I was little, your mom used to tell me bedtime stories. Stories about vampires. I never thought that what she said could be true
Elena: It is true, Jenna. I should have told you. I thought that if you didn't know, you'd be safe. But then things got so out of control and everything I had done to keep you out of it, it just blew up in my face
Jenna: Who else knows? Jeremy?
(Elena nods)
Jenna: John?
Elena: We were just trying to protect you
Jenna: Protect me?
Elena: I'm so sorry. I will tell you everything
Jenna: No, Elena... I am the one who's supposed to be protecting you and Jeremy
Elena: I know, but there's nothing that you could have done. There's so much more to it…
Jenna: no, this is-- this is so… I don't know how… it's…
(She cries)
Elena: I know, hey
Jenna: Why didn't you tell me?! I'm scared
(Elena sits down next to her and embraces her)
Elena: I know. I know. I know, hey. Hey. I'm sorry. Jenna, I am so, so sorry
(Stefan is in the corridor, listening to them. He has tears in his eyes)
(Elena closes a door. Stefan is here)
Stefan: Is she gonna be ok?
Elena: She's in shock. I tried to tell her as much as I could, but I barely scratched the surface
Stefan: I'm so sorry, Elena. I hate this
Elena: It's not your fault, Stefan. It's mine. Anyway... I have to go back to Elijah
Stefan: Wait, what? No, no!
Elena: Stefan, I promised him that I would return. I can't break that promise
Stefan: Oh
(He nods)
Elena: I'll be ok
(She goes to the front door but Damon and Andie rejoin her)
Damon: Where do you think you're going?
Elena: Back to Elijah
Damon: No
Elena: Get out of my way, Dam...
(He catches her arm)
Damon: if you so much as try and take a step out of this house...
Andie: Damon, easy
Damon: Stay out of this, Andie
Stefan: Let her go
Damon: Are you kidding me? We just got her back
(Stefan catches his arm)
Stefan: You heard me. I said let her go
Damon: That's twice today you've stood in my way. I wouldn't try a third
[Alaric's apartment]
(The music is very loud .Katherine is drinking and dancing. Suddenly she hears someone at the door. Klaus/Alaric enters. Katherine is sitting on the couch.)
Klaus/Alaric: You mind turning that down?
(She turns down the music)
Katherine: Why so grumpy?
Klaus/Alaric: Well, this body has outlived its usefulness
Katherine: Do you want a drink?
Klaus/Alaric: No, Katerina, I don't want a drink
Katherine: Come on. It might loosen you up
(He takes the bottle and throws it against the wall. He compels her)
Klaus/Alaric: What I want is for you to sit down and shut up
(She sits down on the couch. Maddox arrives)
Klaus/Alaric: Maddox, what took you so long?
Maddox: You've got a lot of luggage
(Two men enter with luggage. A girl enters too)
Klaus/Alaric: Greta. Finally
Greta: Hello, love. Nice body. You ready to get out of it?
(Two other men arrive with a giant box. Katherine looks at them)
[Lockwood's mansion]
(Elena enter. Elijah's here)
Elijah: Welcome back
Elena: Tell me. What is Klaus' curse?
(She takes of her jacket)
Elena: Please
Elijah: My family was quite close, but Klaus and my father did not get on too well. When we became vampires, we discovered the truth. Klaus was not my father's son. My mother had been unfaithful many years before. This was her darkest secret. Klaus is from a different bloodline. Of course, when my father discovered this, he hunted down and he k*lled my mother's lover and his entire family. Not realizing, of course, that he was igniting a w*r between species that rages until this day
Elena: A w*r between the species?
Elijah: The vampires... and the werewolves
Elena: So Klaus' real father was from a werewolf bloodline? What does that make Klaus? A werewolf? Or a vampire?
Elijah: He's both. A hybrid would be deadlier than any werewolf or vampire. Nature would not stand for such an imbalance of power. Therefore the witches, the servants of nature, saw to it that my brother's werewolf side would become dormant
Elena: That's the curse that Klaus wants to break?
Elijah: He wants to trigger that part of him that's a werewolf. If allowed, Klaus would sire his own bloodline. He'd build his own race. Endangering not just vampires, but everyone
Elena: But you helped him
Elijah: I helped him because I loved him. That's changed, now he must die
Elena: We have the dagger now. We can stop him
Elijah: When a werewolf is wounded by silver, it heals. An Original can't be k*lled by anything but white oak ash on a silver dagger. So you see the conundrum. The dagger does not work
Elena: What, are you saying that Klaus can't be k*lled?
Elijah: There's one way to k*ll any supernatural species… at the hands of the servants of nature themselves
Elena: A witch if they can channel that much power. But it would k*ll them
Elijah: The curse must be broken during the full moon. When Klaus is in transition. That's when he'll be at his most vulnerable. A witch with enough power... can k*ll Klaus
Elena: What if I told you that I knew a witch that could channel that much power?
Elijah: Then I would tell you there's one more thing that you should know
England, 1492
[A room]
Klaus: The full moon is tomorrow, brother. After all these centuries, it is finally time
Elijah: I have been to see the witches. They believe they may have found a way to spare the doppelganger
Klaus: What does it matter if she lives or not? She's a means to an end that is all
Elijah: What, she should die for your gain?
Klaus: She is human. Her life means nothing
Elijah: I beg you to consider this
Klaus: Are you so foolish as to care for her?
Elijah: Of course not
(Klaus gets closer to him)
Klaus: Love is a vampire's greatest weakness, and we are not weak, Elijah. We do not feel, and we do not care
Elijah: We did once. Too many lifetimes ago to matter. Tell the witches not to bother. The sacrifice will happen as planned
Nowadays
[Lockwood's mansion]
Elena: You found a way to save the life of the doppelganger?
Elijah: Yes, Elena. I did. But unfortunately, Katerina took matters into her own hands first. I believe you already know how that played out
Elena: You cared about her, didn't you?
Elijah: It's a common mistake, I'm told. And it's one I won't make again
(He gives her her jacket and leaves)
[Salvatore's house]
(Damon is with Andie in the library)
Andie: You don't have to be so mad at your brother. You know, he's worried about Elena, and...
Damon: Just go, please
Andie: I know you're worried about her, too
Damon: Andie. Go
Andie: Okay
(She leaves. Stefan enters the room)
Stefan: Tired of your little play thing already?
Damon: Don't start with me, Stefan. She's just my distraction
Stefan: She's a person. You're victimizing her
Damon: You should be thankful she's here. She keeps me from going for what I really want
Stefan: You're right. Thank you for being in love with my girlfriend
(Damon gets up)
Damon: And there it is
Stefan: There it is. You know, you can be in love with Elena all you want... If it means that you'll protect her. But I have the one thing that you never will
Damon: Oh, yeah? What's that?
Stefan: Her respect
(Damon punches Stefan so hard that he falls on a rack and breaks it. He gets up and rushes over Damon. They both grunt and groan. Elena and Elijah enter the room)
Elena: Stop!
(Elijah is looking at them)

[A room]
(Elijah is sitting on a chair. Klaus enters the room)
Klaus: What have you done?
Elijah: I don't understand
Klaus: Katerina has gone. She has fled
Elijah: No
Klaus: What did you tell her?
Elijah: I told her nothing
(Klaus catches him and pushes him against the wall. His face has changed)
Klaus: Do not lie to me!
Elijah: I will find her. You have my word
Klaus: If you do not, I give you my word you will be dead
Nowadays
[Salvatore's house]
(Stefan and Damon have stop. They're looking at Elena and Elijah)
Damon: Now you've invited him in?
Elena: Elijah and I have renewed the terms of our deal
Damon: Really?
Elijah: The two of you will come to no harm at my hands. I only ask for one thing in return
Damon: What?
Elijah: An apology
Damon: A what?
(Stefan gets closer to them)
Stefan: I'm sorry for the part that I played in your death. I was protecting Elena. I will always protect Elena
Elijah: I understand
(Elena looks at Damon)
Elena: Sacrifice is going to happen, Damon. Bonnie will be able to k*ll Klaus without hurting herself and Elijah knows how to save my life. I told you I'd find another way. And I did
Damon: Is that true?
Elijah: It is
(Damon looks at Elena)
Damon: And you're trusting him?
Elena: I am
Damon: You can all go to hell
(He leaves. Stefan looks at Elijah)
Stefan: He's angry with me right now. But he'll come around
Elijah: Perhaps
(Damon enters his bedroom. Andie goes out of the bathroom, in lingerie)
Damon: I thought I told you to leave
Andie: You didn't compel me. I want to be here. Just let me be here
Damon: I'm upset. And you know what happens when I'm upset. You have to leave
Andie: No. You need to know that somebody cares about you. I care about you, Damon
(He bites her. She screams. He throws her on the floor. She cries. He gets closer to her)
Damon: Hey. Hey. Look at me
(He compels her)
Damon: Get out of here, before I k*ll you. Just go. Go. Now!
(She takes her clothes, looks at him and leaves)
[Alaric's apartment]
(Maddox and Greta are casting a spell. There are candles all around them. Klaus/Alaric is standing next to the box. Katherine is looking at them. They stop and look at Alaric. He opens his eyes and looks at Katherine)
Alaric: Elena?
(He collapses. Maddox opens the box and Klaus gets out of it and looks at Alaric)
Klaus: Now that's more like it
(He smiles)
