"Elena:" "Previously on "the vampire diaries"..." "He's dead." "No, no!" "I can't." "I can't." "I can't." "I can help you turn it off." "Stefan:" "She's ruthless without her humanity." "The cure is the fastest way to get it back." "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." "Free her from darkness!" "Aaah!" "Aaah!" "No!" "The triangle is complete." "The witches almost killed you." "What witches?" "How did I get off the island?" "What's the last thing you can remember?" "Jeremy was trying to pry the cure out of silas' hands." "Bonnie, there's something you need to know about jeremy." "[music playing]" "Hey, jeremy." "You know, I was..." "I was thinking about the last thing I said to you." ""we did it."" "Totally lame last thing to say to someone." "That wasn't a good-bye, jeremy." "You" "You were supposed to come back with us." "Man:" "Bonnie." "Jeremy." "Wake up." "How are you here?" "Bonnie, wake up." "I don't understand." "Open your eyes." "Bonnie, open your eyes!" "[flames crackling]" "Oh, my god." "So what has it been, 8, 9 days?" "About 8 or 9 days." "I don't know." "I lost count." "We lost count of the consecutive days" "In which elena gilbert has not killed anyone." "I'd say that's progress, brother." "So, what are we gonna do," "Just throw the football around" "For another 150 years" "Till elena gets her humanity back?" "Because I'm cool with that." "She doesn't want the cure." "She's gonna start killing people" "If she knows we're still trying to get it for her." "All right." "We could always, uh, make her want it." "Yeah." "How are you gonna make an emotionless vampire" "Want anything?" "Get her to flip her humanity switch." "So, what are we gonna do?" "Pull a lexi, bombard her with emotions" "Till one of them sticks?" "Yeah, and if that doesn't work," "Then we go to plan "b"" "Lock her up and keep her sidelined" "Until you and I figure out a plan "c."" "And what happens when she gets slammed" "With every emotion she's repressed since jeremy died?" "Well, then you, my friend," "Will be right by her side" "Ready to help her through it." "Right, because you don't want to keep reliving history." "And when this is all over," "You're just gonna get out of her life." "Bingo." "All right." "How do you want to do this?" "Elijah, being human means a fresh start." "I can grow old and have a family" "And fill my days with meaning," "Knowing that each one matters." "Klaus:" "Well, that was poetic." "Well, if you can provide us" "With a more compelling reason" "For wanting the cure, klaus, please." "Silas can appear as anyone." "He got inside my thoughts," "Convinced me I was dying." "He will torment me until I give him the cure." "And in doing so, he will break down" "The wall to the other side." "So it doesn't trap him there when he dies." "He wants to reunite with his lost soul mate." "You, of all lovesick fools, should applaud his devotion." "Rebekah:" "He will open the floodgates" "For every supernatural being that has ever died." "Klaus:" "Including our dear brothers kol and finn." "We'll have our family back." "Please!" "You hated kol." "And you kept finn in a box for most of his life." "Elijah, please." "Your personal discomfort might not be sufficient reason" "For putting the entire world in jeopardy, klaus." "I think our sister deserves a shot at happiness." "Tell me you're joking." "Tell me you're not fating me to an eternity of torture." "I've made my decision." "When you're sick and dying" "And you beg for my blood," "I will laugh in your face" "And compel you to forget me." "[clears throat]" "Where's the cure?" "Rebekah, it's no secret" "That you are impulsive, emotional," "And at times morally questionable." "Prove to me" "This isn't just another one of your whims," "That you know precisely" "What you are giving up here." "Fine." "Anything." "I want you to live a day as a human." "This day." "No vampire privileges-- no strength," "No compulsion, no nothing." "If you succeed and still believe this is what you want..." "The cure is yours." "You're gonna fail." "You should be locking yourself inside all day," "Not shopping for prom." "Name me a more human experience than senior prom." "Death." "Why should I listen to you?" "You realize you won't even be able to compel yourself a date, right?" "Yes, and last time I checked, you're living in my house" "Because I'm the only one that can tolerate you," "So you don't have to be so rude." "Then I'm going to come with you." "Yeah." "I'll keep an eye on you" "And make sure that you pass elijah's test." "As soon as you down the cure, it'll be gone for good." "And no one will be able to use it on me." "[music playing]" "What kind of dreams?" "Usually I'm at his grave," "And..." "All of a sudden, he appears to me." "Well, you never got to say good-bye, bon." "You're grieving." "That's normal." "When I woke up, the couch was on fire." "Oh." "I don't know if it's because I was emotional in my dream" "Or if shane was right." "Without his help, I'll lose control of my magic." "No." "It's because you need a night off from mourning." "And I'm gonna make sure that you have it." "Um, you look super hot, by the way." "Do you think?" "Oh, yeah." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "Matt and I are gonna have the sexiest date there." "[laughs]" "You know what?" "I love friend prom." "And it's exactly what prom should be" "Friends and memories." "Yes, it sucks that my boyfriend can't be here," "But the three of us are gonna have the night of our lives." "[door chimes jingle]" "Elena:" "Hey, bonnie." "Heard you got your mind wiped." "That sucks." "Pretty dress, caroline." "I know." "You helped me pick it out months ago" "When we were friends," "Before you tried to kill me." "I thought it looked familiar." "Caroline:" "Can you press this for me?" "I'll pick it up later." "Bonnie." "[music playing]" "I don't need a babysitter." "Because the last time I saw you," "You snapped a waitress' spine." "It got you to stop your search for the cure, didn't it?" "Yup." "We're just here to make sure" "You hold up your end of the deal." "Don't eat the prom queen." "May I?" "No." "Wow." "Would you look at that?" "Aw." "Beautiful dress." "Thank you." "I stole it." "[car door closes]" "Caroline:" "Klaus?" "[footsteps]" "Klaus!" "Kla" "Hello." "Did you not hear me?" "Of course I heard you, caroline." "I think the whole of mystic falls heard you." "I'm in no mood for company." "Well, I'm sorry that you're having personal issues," "But I have a real crisis on my hands." "Elena stole my prom dress." "I went to pick it up," "And the tailor said that somebody else already did." "And when I asked who, she said she couldn't remember." "Hello?" "The vervain is out of the town water supply." "She was compelled." "[laughs]" "It is not funny." "I know." "I know." "Then stop laughing." "[scoffs]" "Look, I know that prom isn't important to you," "But it's important to me." "Surely finding another dress" "Is well within your substantial vampire capabilities." "But I don't want just another dress." "I want to look hot, like princess grace of monaco hot." "So..." "Could you please go back into your creepy trophy case" "Of family collectibles and dig me out" "Something of royal caliber?" "[music playing]" "Where's the disco ball?" "Caroline's been working on this for a while." "It's a, uh, photo yearbook" "Of the senior class." "[music playing]" "Stefan:" "Isn't that photo from first day of freshman year?" "My mom took that when she dropped us off at school." "I'm gonna get a seizure if I keep staring at these screens." "[dance music playing]" "Why do I feel like we're at a practice run of caroline's wedding?" "Because I think we are." "You are underage." "You're overage, and honestly, it's kind of creepy." "Oh, come on." "What bad-ass senior is complete" "Without a prom date that's slightly too old for high school?" "Please don't refer to yourself as my date." "Oh, I'm sorry." "Your boyfriend." "Something I said?" "[clicks tongue]" "I'm not doing this." "You're not gonna deny that I'm your boyfriend, now, are you?" "What are you doing?" "Trying to stir some feelings in me?" "Ironic, since you, my sire, are the one" "Who had me turn them off." "Yeah, well, hindsight is almost a bigger bitch than you." "You're nothing to me, damon." "Really?" "Then why tell me you're in love with me?" "Why tell me it's the most real thing" "You've ever felt in your life?" "I told you I loved you because I was sired to you," "And now that I'm not, I know that none of it was real," "But if you still think that it was," "I mean, maybe you're the one who needs help with your emotions," "Not me." "Elena:" "Uh-oh." "Friend patrol." "Hey." "I know we haven't really talked since..." "Everything, but I just" "I want to say that I miss you." "Matt:" "Me, too, and we want to help you." "What are you gonna do" "Get me a job at the grill?" "I don't want you to look back and realize" "You missed out on the best part of senior year." "If you had the choice, you would have turned your emotions off" "The second that vicki died." "Bonnie:" "Hey, you shut it off because all you could feel" "Were the horrible things happening to you." "You still have friends who love you." "I thought you were going to bring jeremy back," "But it turned out you were just" "A brainwashed crazy person," "So technically, you're a walking reminder" "Of all the horrible things that have happened to me." "Bonnie, wait." "I need some air." "Caroline's right." "Elena's gone." "Is this real?" "Does it matter?" "May I have this dance?" "Let go of me or I will bite you." "Oh, come on." "I'm the one that hates to dance, remember?" "Yeah, and now I finally see why." "Hmm." "So are you and bonnie, like, a thing?" "We're not a thing." "We're friends." "So who are you here with?" "No one." "Go on." "I know what you're thinking" "Why didn't I just compel myself a date?" "You know, actually I was thinking," "I wonder if bonnie wants ice." "Oh." "Could I ask you a question?" "Why?" "Apparently you already seem to know" "Everything I'm thinking, so... [music playing]" "Do you think that I would make a good human?" "I think that "good" is a hard word to live up to." "I've never seen you do anything remotely good," "So..." "Honestly, no, I don't." "I'm sorry." "So you're just here to help rebekah get the cure, right," "On what happens to be the most sentimental night" "In high school." "You think this is my cry for help?" "I'd be happy to show you what a real cry for help sounds like." "Hmm." "So this..." "Us..." "You feel nothing?" "I feel nothing." "I don't believe you." "I don't care." "So you don't remember" "What it used to feel like when we would dance?" "When my hand would touch your waist?" "[music playing]" "Nope." "How about this..." "When our fingers would touch?" "Nothing." "And this?" "Does your heart really refuse to remember?" "What heart?" "[music playing]" "So how do I look?" "Are you kidding me?" "You look like a backstabbing bi" "The dress is beautiful, and it brings out your eyes." "Thanks." "I thought I'd do it a favor." "Stefan:" "Caroline, why don't you come dance with me?" "[music playing]" "Caroline:" "I know you said to kill her with kindness," "But can't I just kill her?" "I see you found a dress." "It's from klaus." "Mmm." "Don't ask." "You know you have him" "Wrapped around your little finger, right?" "If I had klaus wrapped around my finger," "Then I would be here with tyler right now." "Are you making any progress with the dress thief?" "I don't know." "I think it's affecting me" "A lot more than it's affecting her." "What do you mean?" "Every time I tell myself that I'm moving on," "There's this part of me that just can't seem to shake her." "That's normal, stefan." "You guys were in love." "That doesn't go away just because" "You declare that you're moving on." "Then how does anyone ever seem to move on?" "I don't know." "I think that someday," "You'll meet someone new" "And you'll fall madly in love." "And you'll have moved on" "Without even realizing it." "I can't just make you prom queen." "It is based on votes." "And you have approximately none so far." "And you can't just help out a friend?" "No, I can't." "And you can't make me." "I drink vervain tea now." "I was not going to compel you." "You can't be compelled, but you can be killed." "Rebekah wins prom queen." "Got it?" "What the bloody hell are you doing?" "What you were about to do." "I was not going to threaten her." "Remember that 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?" "Yeah." "So?" "So you're not a good person." "You're not gonna win this cure by being yourself." "So just stand there and refrain from talking, ok?" "You and me." "We're at senior prom." "[chuckles]" "Do you miss me, bonnie?" "[chuckles]" "Of course I do." "Do you want this to be real?" "Yes." "Then it can be." "Bonnie..." "Your magic can bring me back for good." "You have the power to do the spell now." "Oh, my god." "You're silas." "Get away from me." "You need me, bonnie." "I don't need you." "I don't want anything to do with you." "You have no idea how dangerous you are." "If I don't help you, you'll kill yourself." "You're trying to get in my head." "I'm just asking for your help in return for mine." "Leave me alone." "Wake up on fire recently?" "Did you do that to me?" "Please, bonnie, let me help before you hurt somebody" "Or yourself." "You don't care about me." "You only care about bringing down the wall" "To the other side, and I won't do it." "Don't you want to see jeremy again?" "Not like this." "Where did you get that?" "Our baby sister." "Once she's human..." "It'll make no difference to her whatsoever." "Take it." "Why would you give me this?" "We are immortal apart from the stake." "Now that it's yours," "You have nothing to fear." "Silas will continue to torment me." "Well, you've survived endless torments" "Throughout the centuries." "You'll shake this." "And if you can't," "You outrun him." "[chuckles]" "Yes, it's that simple." "Without the cure, what makes you think" "I'll spare your beloved katerina?" "Or have you figured out, you're simply" "Another spider in her web?" "You will spare her because I am asking you" "To spare her." "As your family, as your only living brother," "I would ask that you provide me with this opportunity" "To feel, to care." "To love." "I gave you that opportunity." "And you sided against me." "So if I run," "It will be to chase her." "And as your only living brother," "I will make it my cause that you" "Never know a moment of happiness." "It is such a hollow little life that you lead," "Eh, klaus." "[music playing]" "You haven't seen bonnie, have you?" "She's probably in the bathroom." "Every other girl is." "And if you haven't noticed," "I am sitting here all on my own." "So, please, will you put me out of my misery" "And dance with me?" "I don't think so." "Matt, please." "This is a girl's worst nightmare." "Please." "I thought about what you said" "About being good" "And you're right." "It won't be easy, but it's worth trying." "I don't understand why my opinion" "Is so important to you." "Rebekah:" "Because you're everything" "That I want to be." "You're loyal, honest, kind." "People root for you to succeed." "Elena even died for you." "I'm a bus boy, rebekah, ok?" "It's not like" "I'm out saving the world." "But you're human." "You're so beautifully human." "Aren't you on "save elena" duty?" "I'm taking a little breather." "[exhales]" "This prom sucks." "This is our last dance together, and it's awful." "This is not how I wanted to remember this night." "Thank you." "[exhales] [sighs]" "Well, if anyone asks, I'll be at the after-party." "We have a problem." "It's like jeremy was there." "I could talk to him, feel him." "Bonnie, that's what silas does." "You can't let him get to you again." "Yeah, because you all crazy" "And brainwashed." "It's not a good look." "What am I missing?" "Silas is appearing to bonnie" "As my dead brother," "Which means he still wants her" "To do the spell." "So?" "The nice thing about having no feelings is" "You don't fear your enemies on the other side." "I'm not worried about my enemies." "It's people like alaric..." "And jeremy." "Salvatore brothers are annoying enough" "As it is." "Can you imagine if my brother" "Came back to the living?" "He'd spend every waking hour trying" "To get my humanity back." "April:" "Hey." "Ok, the ballots have been tallied," "Which means it's time to announce" "This year's prom king and queen." "Look, one of us should take her home." "What?" "No." "She's safer here in public" "Around all these people." "There's no way silas" "Can make everyone see the same thing all at once." "Matt:" "Ok, in the meantime," "How do we look out for a guy that" "Can appear as anyone?" "April:" "All right." "Your prom king and queen are..." "Matt donovan and bonnie bennett." "[crowd cheers] [scattered whistles]" "Bonnie bloody bennett." "Of course." "[applause continues]" "Everyone's so worried about silas," "But there's an obvious solution to all of this." "He needs bonnie." "He can't do the spell without her." "So if you can't kill silas," "Kill his witch." "I can't kill anyone." "I'm supposed to be human." "Maybe you can't, but I can." "Tyler." "I don't think you've ever looked more beautiful." "Oh, my god." "Tyler." "[caroline sighs]" "Oh, you can't be here." "Klaus" "Can't get in." "Matt owns this place now." "He had to invite me inside." "If klaus finds out" "He won't." "You didn't really think" "I was gonna miss prom, did you?" "Here." "These are for you." "Caroline forbes, may I please have this dance?" "You looking for silas" "Or you waxing nostalgic" "About misspent youth?" "What happened to you being over it?" "[music playing]" "What do you mean?" "Well, I mean, for a guy who's ready to move on," "You seemed pretty convincing as a boyfriend" "Out on the dance floor?" "I mean, isn't that what we're doing," "Reminding elena of what she's lost?" "Like her feelings for you?" "Yeah." "Yeah, maybe." "Hmm." "I mean..." "I don't mean to be a dick, damon," "But elena and I have a history." "Memories, laughs, ups and downs." "It was a real relationship." "I mean, what you have is just a one-night stand" "That was probably the result" "Of the sire-bond." "[damon groaning]" "Your mind is" "A very dark and riveting place, damon." "Uh!" "Silas." "Where's my brother, you psychic freak?" "He's in the woods," "Where I convinced him I was you." "He's probably in a bit of pain now, too." "The witch is mine." "Stay away from her." "Ugh!" "[coughs] [music playing]" "You need to get your queen off the stage." "I can't really do that right now." "You didn't hear it from me," "But elena's up to something." "Congratulations, bonnie." "What do you want?" "For you to stop being a problem." "[moaning]" "Bonnie." "Bonnie:" "Something's happening to me." "Ok, just relax." "No, I got to get out of here." "What's going on?" "Remember when I told you" "To make rebekah prom queen?" "No!" "You should have listened." "April, April, come on." "Please wake up." "April, come on!" "Please wake up." "Matt, why did you call--oh, my god." "Rebekah, can you feed her your blood?" "Can't we just call 911 or something?" "She's dying." "Please help her." "I can't." "If I heal her with my vampire blood," "Elijah won't give me the cure" "And I won't get to be human." "How is this even a choice right now?" "You want to be human?" "Prove it." "Be good." "Do the right thing and save her life." "Stefan." "Yeah." "I'm over here." "Agh!" "Agh!" "[groaning]" "Let me guess." "An extremely handsome man came up to you" "Claming to be me." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Bonnie, wait." "Get away from me, silas." "We can help each other." "This is what you do." "You wait until I lose control" "And then you want to swoop in" "And save me." "You really think you have a choice?" "If you don't let me help you," "Your expression will consume you from the inside out." "Get away from me." "[car alarms triggered]" "You didn't try to do that, did you?" "Your magic is taking on a life of its own." "You need help controlling it." "Listen to me, bonnie." "Breathe." "I'll die before I let you control me again." "Bonnie, listen to me!" "Control, bonnie!" "Control." "Get out of my head!" "[groaning]" "[moaning]" "Bonnie, stop." "Bonnie." "Bonnie..." "You're killing her." "Bonnie:" "I know what I'm doing." "That's the magic talking." "This is your best fried." "Damn it, bonnie." "Bonnie..." "Please." "[moaning]" "You ok?" "No, I'm not ok." "I almost died." "The shell of my best friend almost killed me." "None of this is ok." "Damon:" "I got you." "Ok." "Hey." "Whoa." "Plan "b."" "Thank you for saving her." "Elena was right." "I should have just stayed home." "No one has to know what you did." "I won't tell anyone." "You'd really do that for me?" "I would." "And maybe I was a little harsh" "Earlier." "You wouldn't make the worst human." "Are you offering me a job as a bus boy?" "[chuckles]" "You know, I'd look cute in an apron." "We'll see." "I should probably get April home." "Ok." "Try to stand up." "Klaus:" "Dear sweet April young." "Now, there's a girl with a future." "She was dying," "And I acted with human decency." "You can't get more human than that." "Actually, you can." "You can stand idly by" "As poor April takes her final breath." "You can ask, "why does this always happen" "To innocent people?"" ""where do the spirits go?"" ""was there anything I could have done?"" "That is what it means to be human, sister." "You give humanity too much credit." "Are you gonna tell elijah?" "No." "No." "You are." "You're home." "And how did our cinderella fare?" "I won't lie." "There were complications." "Klaus:" "You'll tell him that you cheated," "That you don't deserve the cure." "But I passed your test with flying colors." "If this is what you truly want..." "It's yours." "Rebekah, voice-over:" "Why is it so hard for you to let me be happy?" "Because your happiness comes at the expense of my sanity," "Because I refuse to entertain" "Yet another one of your whims," "Because you are bored" "And you're looking for a reason to matter." "Thankfully I don't have to waste any more breath" "Fighting you on the subject." "What does that mean?" "Nik, what does that mean?" "I guess it's time" "That I turned into a pumpkin." "Thank you, elijah." "[cell phone rings] [ring] [ring]" "Rebekah?" "Elijah, I think nik's up to something." "Where did you go?" "Look, don't do anything with the cure until I see you." "Something's not right." "Elijah?" "Hello?" "Elijah, do not take your eyes off that cure." "I think it might be a little late for that." "[music playing]" "I have to go soon." "People will be here for the party." "And if anyone sees me..." "I know." "I know." "Thank you for the best prom ever." "Was it worth it" "To see her smile," "To make her dream night come true?" "Was it worth it?" "In the shared interest of giving caroline" "The night of her dreams..." "I'm going to allow you 5 seconds" "Before I rip your heart out of your chest." "5...4...3..." "She might not feel much, but she's gonna feel that" "In the morning." "So what's the plan?" "Damon:" "When bonnie was whaling on her tonight," "I could see it in her eyes." "Elena thought she was gonna die." "She was scared." "Fear." "Last time I checked, one of those pesky human emotions." "So plan "c"..." "Make her life a living hell." "You care to talk about our other problem?" "You know, the one that can be" "Anyone anywhere at anytime." "Silas still needs bonnie." "And if tonight is any indication," "She's no pushover." "She's not gonna let him manipulate her," "Not anymore." "I wouldn't underestimate his talents." "He fooled the hell out of both of us." "What did he say to you anyway?" "[heavy sigh]" "He led me out in the woods," "Claiming he saw silas," "And then he staked me." "How did he get to you?" "[stammers]" "Talked about his hair." "I figured it had to be you." "Funny." "You coming?" "Yeah." "[voice of katherine] klaus, I hear elijah" "Has refused you the cure" "And in return, you have refused me my freedom." "Shame on you both." "But while you boys sort out your problems," "I have one last thing to offer you." "I've caught wind that there is a witch in new orleans" "Named jane-anne deveraux plotting a move against you." "Hunt her down." "What she has to say will rattle you" "So deeply to your core that chasing little old me" "Will be the least of your concerns." "It's been a fun five centuries, klaus," "But I've worn down too many good heels running from you." "Love and hate, katerina." "Silas?" "I know it's you." "My locator spell worked without using" "Any of your possessions." "You're finally acknowledging" "How powerful you are." "You're not jeremy anymore." "Is this the real you?" "Then tell me why you're hiding." "Call it qetsiyah's revenge." "When she learned that I didn't love her," "She used her magic to ensure" "No woman could ever love me." "It should come as no surprise" "That now I simply want to die." "And I want you to." "Even if it means bringing back" "Every dead supernatural being?" "Show me your face."
