"NARRATOR:" "Previously on The Vampire Diaries:" "KLAUS:" "Only thing stronger than the craving for blood is your love for this girl." "Turn it off." "STEFAN:" "No!" "Turn it off!" " What did you do?" " I fixed him." "Klaus is gone but he's asked me to keep watch on you until he returns." "From now on, you're under my protection." "It's kind of a push and pull." "I'm pushing from the other side, trying to contact you." "And sometimes, like just now, if you pull..." "Bonnie, stop dodging my calls." "Why are you thinking about me when calling her?" "I don't think I can stop." "DAMON:" "Who's the guy with Carol?" "FORBES:" "Mason Lockwood." "DAMON:" "Mason Lockwood is a werewolf." "He'll kill me the first chance he got." "[GROANING]" "[GRUNTS]" "This is gonna be fun." "[GROANS]" "Oh, you gotta be kidding me." "Hurts, doesn't it?" "Oh, Stefan." "Low blow, Stefan." "Low blow." "What the hell happened to you?" "Whatever twisted ripper game this is leave me out of it." " I didn't do this." "DAMON:" "Quit screwing around." "I didn't." " That's pretty messed up, isn't it?" " Yep." "[GROANS]" "Yeah." "Not to worry." "I'll just untangle myself." "[SCREAMS]" "CAROL:" "As a longtime member of the historical society I am especially proud to be kicking off this day of festivities." "Thank you, volunteers." "[CROWD APPLAUDING]" "Tonight we turn off our town's lights and flare up our lanterns in honor of the Night of Illumination started by our founders 150 years ago." "Here's founding family member Tobias Fell with a history lesson." "What are we doing here?" "Tobias Fell is the head of the History Department." "I didn't have a choice." "All right, that explains what you're doing here." "I'm the one who can fail you if you don't help me out." "Hey, sorry I'm late." "What did I miss?" " Just a bunch of historical lies." " You didn't miss anything." "The first illumination was held in celebration of the newfound prosperity that Mystic Falls enjoyed after the war." "After the founders stole from all the vampires." "TOBIAS:" "The founders, they placed lanterns..." " What's so funny?" "TOBIAS:" "Above their doors to indicate that it was safe for their neighbors to come outside again." " Safe from the vampires." "TOBIAS:" "That night was an opportunity for the community of Mystic Falls to come together." "A chance to strengthen ties ...with neighbors, business owners and returning soldiers." "When you did the spell to send Vicki away, did that get rid of Anna too?" "I wish." "All I did was block the magic that was helping Vicki get a foothold here." "Jeremy's still got a direct line to the other side." "And as long as he wants to see Anna and she wants to see him, she's still here." "You don't think I can actually resist commenting on that." "There." "You commented." " Bonnie..." " What do you want me to say, Caroline?" "I went against nature when I brought Jeremy back to life." " I'm paying the consequences." " Say you're not okay with it." "I'm a thousand times not okay with it." "I just don't know what to do about it." "Greetings, blondie, witchy." "You got your voodoo wires crossed when you got rid of Vicki Donovan." " What do you mean?" "Why?" " Because I'm pretty sure I just got spit-roasted by Mason Lockwood's ghost." " What?" " Why would you think that?" "Maybe because he chained me to a chair and shoved a hot poker in my chest." "Let's just say I'm having déjà vu." "You said ghosts couldn't physically interact with people." " They can't." " I don't have time for vengeful Lockwood." "When I kill someone, they're supposed to stay dead." "Whatever you screwed up, fix it." " Hey, Jer, I need you to help me." " What's up?" "Been going through Stefan's journals." "Every time that he's gone off the rails Lexi has been the one to bring him back." "So where is she now that we need her?" "She's dead." "You want me to try to reach her, don't you?" "If I knew how she did it, maybe I could help him." "I don't even know if she's on the other side." "Is that what it's called?" "That's what Anna calls it." "There's not, like, an official brochure." "So, what is it, like some sort of supernatural purgatory?" "Anna said it's like being here with us, only we can't see her or hear her and she can't interact with anyone." "And she's all alone." "Vicki could interact." "She blew up my car." "Vicki had help from a witch on the other side." "Anna, she's doing this all by herself." "I'm just saying, maybe we learned our lesson about summoning dead people." "I haven't seen Vicki." "I swear." " I sent her back like you told me to." " Are you sure?" "She has as much reason to haunt Damon as Mason does." "She's gone, Bonnie." "If she was here, I'd know it." "Why do you think it's Vicki and not Mason?" "If any ghosts other than Vicki Donovan has a physical foothold on our side then that means Damon's right and something has gone really wrong." "I've had enough of this ghost stuff to last forever." "So you guys can leave me out of this one." "I feel so sad for him." "Took a lot for him to send his sister away." "Yeah." "So much strength is a man." "I've got a ghost problem to deal with." "Save the Jeremy lecture for later." " Okay, did your Grimoire just...?" " I think so." "Please tell me that's a recipe for witch cookies." "It's a manifestation spell." "It's used to reveal veiled matter." "What's "veiled matter"?" "Ghosts." "Do you think it's even possible to contact Lexi?" "I don't know." "I didn't have an emotional connection with her." " I never even met her." " Could we drop it?" "I can't, Ric." "I don't know what else to do." "Don't you think we have too many vampires in our past to be sitting here, thinking of them watching us?" "I don't think all supernatural spirits go to the other side." "I think some of them find peace." " Is Anna here right now?" " Don't tell her I'm here." "She won't like it." "No." "No." "I'm gonna go, uh, check my work schedule." "Hey, guys." "Who forgot to invite me to the family summit?" "Oh, wow." "All these words." "I forgot how much I used to care." "I didn't." "You know, Elena, it's probably best you not torture yourself with memories from the past." "It's best we both just move on and accept things as they are." "You don't have to be here, Stefan." "You know what?" "You're right, I don't." "But Elena's here and I look out for Elena." "There's gonna be people everywhere tonight so there's gonna be lots to eat." "[CHUCKLES]" "I'm kidding." "I'm kidding." "Loosen up." "I can't drop it, Ric." "So this is where you brought Jeremy back to life?" "Yeah." "Sorry, I know it's creepy." "But we needed a private place around here to do the spell." "There's no chance it's haunted by the hundred dead witches who were horrifically burned to death in this very spot, is there?" "They're not here anymore." "And they made it clear they were never coming back." "Great." "They pinky swear?" "What's wrong?" "Why did you tell me to lie?" "Elena is Bonnie's best friend." "She won't like what's going on between us." "What is going on between us?" "I mean, how are we able to touch?" "Vicki had to use magic to do that." "I don't know." "Honestly, I have no idea." "This witch on the other side that gave Vicki her foothold is she helping you now?" "What?" "No." " I'm all alone, Jeremy." "I told you that." " Swear to me." "I swear." "I'm not any danger to you or anybody." "I promise." "I need you to believe me." "I shouldn't even be talking to you." "This is not okay." "Then send me away." "I'm here because you wanna be with me as much as I wanna be with you." "Send me away, Jeremy." "It's that easy." "I don't know why this is happening or when it's gonna stop but before it's done, I have to do this." "Ready?" "Do you need me to do?" "[CHANTING IN LATIN]" "Right." "Okay." " I'll grab Jeremy." " I'll be right back." "I've had enough vampires today, thanks." "Oh, come on." "Have a drink." "We got troubles." "You got troubles." "We're not a team." "You tried to kill me." "We're not friends." "I don't like you anymore." "But remember when we conspired to kill Uncle Werewolf, Mason Lockwood?" "Yeah." "And?" "I think he's still a little pissed." "[CHANTING CONTINUES]" "Bonnie, I don't like this." "Bonnie?" "Oh, my God." "Is that your...?" "Grams?" "Anna?" "Lexi." " Mason." "MASON:" "God, I miss whiskey." "[GROANS]" "Told you." "Hi." " You're dead." " Technically, so are you." " I mean, how the hell can I...?" " See me?" "I have no idea." "I have no idea how long it's gonna last." "Let's get to the point." "You're off the rails, bigtime." "I don't know how you're here, but you need to leave me alone." "What kind of friend would I be if I didn't help you out of this mess you're in?" " I don't want your help." " You know you say that every time." ""I don't want help." "I don't wanna get better." "Leave me alone."" " Maybe you should listen this time." " Or maybe I should do this:" "[BONNIE CRYING]" "I can't believe you're here." "Now, stop your crying." "We don't have time for tears." "Nice to see you again, Caroline." "Hi, Miss Sheila." "A fine mess you've made, honey." "The witches told you there'd be consequences bringing Jeremy back." "You did it anyway." "I didn't have a choice." "I love him and I couldn't just let him go." "I understand." "But you cracked open the door to the other side." "There's an old witch over here." "She took advantage of it." "She took advantage of you, honey." "When you did that spell to send Vicki Donovan away?" "She wedged the door wide open giving a free pass to anybody with unfinished business." " How do you know this?" " Witches talk." "Even on the other side." "Who do you think makes all the rules?" "What does the witch want?" "That's Original vampire business, not yours." "I don't want you getting in the middle of that." "I'm here because you upset the balance of nature." "And it's your duty to set it right." "You need to close that door." " How do we do that?" " The old witch can draw power from this side because of her talisman." "Her talisman." "My necklace?" "It's some juju power source." "And I know you're not gonna like this, but Bonnie needs to destroy it." "I walked in on Jeremy kissing the reason I'm completely okay with that." "What?" "Are you kidding?" "I wish." "Look, I don't have the necklace." "Damon has it somewhere." "Text him." "I'll call you right back." " Elena..." " You need to disappear or evaporate or whatever it is ghosts do." " It's not her fault." "You're right, it's yours." "How did this happen?" "I don't know, okay?" "I don't know." "It just..." "It did." "Elena, please, you can't tell Bonnie." "Don't worry, I'm gonna let you do that." "Right after I help her send the ghosts away." "Looks like today was a good day to be thinking about me, Elena." " Lexi?" " Come with me." " Where?" " Ripper Detox 101." "Crash course." "I'm sorry, did you not just say how desperate you were for my help in saving Stefan's life?" "[SIGHS]" "Let's go." "[PHONE BEEPS]" "I am never gonna hear the end of that damn necklace." "One of you will pay for this, right?" "Cheers." "Let's get to it." "I killed you." "If you want revenge, get in line." "Actually, I want an apology." "[LAUGHS]" " Good luck with that." "DAMON:" "Don't you have family to haunt?" "Your nephew was turned into a hybrid minion." "That's why I'm here." "To help Tyler." "[SCOFFS]" "Well, sorry to break it to you, buddy, but Tyler can't be helped." "At least not while Klaus is alive, which is, like, always." "Not necessarily." "Not if you found a weapon that could kill him." "There is no weapon that..." "What do you know?" " I know you need to apologize." " You gotta be kidding me." "Are you incapable of remorse?" "Just apologize." "[SIGHS]" "You're right." "I didn't have to kill you." "I do a lot of things I don't have to do." "[LAUGHS]" "That's good enough." "Meet me at the old Lockwood cellar." "Bring a shovel." " Come alone." " What, you gonna bury me alive?" "Don't tempt me." "Klaus really did a number on him, huh?" "He compelled him to turn off his humanity." "Well, we're just gonna have to convince him to turn it back on." "It's not gonna be pretty." "I can handle it." "Wake up, sleepy head." "How you feeling?" "What is this?" "Let me out of here." "Shh." "Inside voices, please." "I'm trying to get inside your head." "Elena?" "Get rid of her, please?" "No." "First step, drying him out." "Starve away the bloodlust." "Strip away the temptation." "[LAUGHS]" "This isn't gonna work, Lexi." "You can't do this." "You heard the "not pretty" part?" "I heard you." "What are you doing?" "[GROANING]" "What are you doing, Lexi?" "LEXI:" "Doing what I do best, sweetness." "I'm saving your life." "[GROANING]" "I'm surprised you showed." "Hit a snag in my only other Klaus lead." "So I'd say I'm highly motivated." "Mikael?" "Yeah." "That didn't turn out so great, did it?" "How can you know so much?" "There's not much to do on the other side but sit and watch people screw up." "What are we looking for?" "There's an old Lockwood legend about a weapon that can kill an Original vampire." "Like the rest of their secrets, they kept it buried." "Oh, come on, give me the thing." "Move." "Got it." "MASON:" "Go for it." "You first." "You think I'm leading you into a trap?" "The thought crossed my mind." "I'm starving." "I'm starving." "I'm starving." "Let me out!" "Let me out." "Please, let me out." "What's happening?" "He's hallucinating." "That's three months without any blood." " Let me out." " Now he's at nine months." "Two years." "Five." "Did I ever tell you how glad I am that you're dead?" "Aww." "I missed you too, friend." "[CELL PHONE RINGING]" " Hello?" " So necklace isn't where Damon said and now we can't reach Damon." "Listen, I need you to get Bonnie to hold off on sending the ghosts back." "What?" "But you said you were in full support of getting rid of them." "ELENA:" "I was." "I am." "Look, Lexi's here and she's helping with Stefan." "Okay, well, let's just find it first and then we'll choose between the boyfriend-ghost dramas." "What are you talking about?" "Um..." "Lexi's back so Elena wants us to hold off on destroying the necklace." "You said boyfriend dramas, plural." "What is it, Caroline?" "Elena caught Jeremy kissing Anna." "What?" "I'm sorry." "He kissed her?" "She's got a foothold now so she probably thinks that she's here to stay." "But you and I, Bonnie?" "We're gonna find that necklace, okay?" "Okay." "JEREMY:" "Anna?" "Anna?" "Sorry." "Anna?" " Hey, sorry about that." " No problem, buddy." "Have you seen Tobias?" "He's supposed to do the lighting ceremony." "No." "Well, well." " Frederick?" " If it isn't Pearl's daughter little Annabel." "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen." "Mr. Fell seems to have been detained so the History Department's very own Mr. Saltzman has agreed to fill in." "[CROWD APPLAUDING]" "Anna?" "Still hanging around the Gilbert kid, huh?" "Forget his family killed you and your mother?" "There you are." " Is everything all right?" " Ask your ancestors." "ANNA:" "What are you doing here, Frederick?" "Well, it's a founder's celebration." "And we have some unfinished business with the founding families." "On behalf of Mystic Falls High School and the Historical Society let's light them up." "[WOMAN SCREAMS]" "[CROWD CHATTERING]" "[PANTING]" "Elena?" "Elena." "I'm hurting." "Please help me." "Don't listen." "Shut him out." " I am helping you, Stefan." " I'll do anything." "I'll change." "I promise." "It's a lie." "He'll say anything right now." "Elena, I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "Just make it stop." "Please, just make it stop." "You have to separate yourself from your emotions." " Don't let him play on them." " Hey, look at me, look at me." "Elena, I love you, okay?" "I love you." "I love you so much." " I love you so much." " I'm sorry, Stefan." "I just don't believe you." "You know what?" "I don't want your help anyway." "I wish I'd never met you." "Every moment that I've spent with you has been a complete and total waste." "You see that?" "That's the ripper talking." "Once he's weak enough, you have to cause him pain." "Make him feel things." "Anger, rage, anything." "You have to make him see past the blood." "[GROANS]" "LEXI:" "Think of it as a regimen." "Day in and day out." "Like running the treadmill." "Like making coffee." "Until he's ready to be saved." " I will rip you apart, Lexi." " You can't." "I'm already dead." "[SCREAMS]" "I can't." "[POLICE SIRENS BLARING]" "[MAN SPEAKING OVER POLICE RADIO INDISTINCTLY]" "[GROANS]" "I give up." "It's not anywhere in this room." "[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]" " What do you want, Jeremy?" "JEREMY:" "Caroline?" " Did you find that necklace?" " Not yet." "Wait, what's going on?" "The ghosts of the tomb vampires killed Tobias Fell." "Might wanna find that necklace before they start going through the founding families." " It's not where it's supposed to be." "[SIGHS]" " Unless someone took it." " Who?" "Well, who do you think?" "I didn't." "She said she didn't take it." "Oh, and you believe her?" "I didn't take it, Jeremy." " You know what?" "Yeah, I do believe her." " You're a bigger idiot than I thought." "So wake up, Jeremy, before you lose everything." "Jeremy?" "What happened?" "I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop." "Your motives are deceptively pure." "You talk the talk, but I know you'll do anything for your brother." "You won't screw me over as long as we have the same agenda." "I'm supposed to believe you're not gonna screw me over?" "All right, which way?" " I don't know." "Flip a coin." " Aren't you all-knowing?" "I'm a ghost, I'm not God." "Go left." "Or not." "You have trust issues." "Anyone ever tell you that?" "[GRUNTING]" "Yo." "Help a brother out?" "Mason?" "Where is Anna now?" "I don't know." "I don't know if she took the necklace." "She was the only person who heard us talking about it." "She took it." "We have to get it back, we have to destroy it and close the door." " I know, but..." " But what?" "What, Jer?" "I can touch her, Elena." "I can kiss her again." "And I know it's wrong, and I know that I shouldn't feel this way, but I do." "I love her." "I've always loved her." "But it's not real." "She's dead." "Gone." "Everything that you're holding on to is in the past, Jer." "Are you gonna love a ghost for the rest of your life?" "He's at the beginning of his life, Anna." "You're just holding him back." "You know that." "Call Bonnie." "Tell her that you have the necklace." "Get her to send the ghosts away." "DAMON:" "Having a bad day." "Sorry." "Thought you might need this." "You're welcome." "[GROANS]" "What's your game, man?" "I killed you." "I jammed my fist in your chest." "I ripped your heart out." "There's no way this whole buddy-trust act is real." "You know what the other side is like?" "We're all alone." "We watch the people we left behind and we regret our decisions." "That's it." "Look, I can't change what happened to me." "But maybe I can change what happens to Tyler." "I don't need revenge, Damon." "I need redemption." "Okay." "Jeremy's got the necklace." "He's gonna meet us at the witch house." "BONNIE:" "Okay." "What's going on up there?" "That's Mrs. Lockwood's car." "[TIRES SCREECHING]" " Bonnie, I'm gonna get out of the car." " What?" " And you're gonna drive away." " I'm not leaving you." "Bonnie, you've got your ghost-boyfriend drama, Elena has hers." "Right now the mother of mine is about to be ghost bait." "So go send them all back to the other side, okay?" "This spell is just gonna break your foothold, right?" "You'll still be here." "I'll still be able to see you." "I mean, this doesn't have to be goodbye." "No, but it should be." "Elena was right." "I'm holding you back." "Anna..." "I'm sorry I took the necklace." "I just thought, with all the tomb vampires out that maybe..." "You might find your mother." "I don't know where she is, Jeremy." "I don't know if she's moved on and found peace or if there's even any peace to be found." "Hey, there is, Anna." "Okay, there has to be." "I believe that, okay?" "[CRYING]" "I just..." "I don't wanna be alone anymore." "Look at me." "You're not gonna be alone." "I'm not gonna let you be alone." "LEXI:" "Quit fighting me, Stefan." " I know you're in there." " Not anymore, Lexi." "You know you say that every time?" "Until I make you feel again." "[GROANS]" "You wasted your whole life taking care of me." "Now you're dead and you still having nothing better to do." "We're running out of time." " You gotta give me more." "ELENA:" "I can't." "No." "Not until I break through." "I can't, Lexi." "They have the necklace, they're going to close the door." "The necklace." "Okay." "That necklace." "At least tell me you remember how you felt about that." "You found it during your darkest time." "You said, when you made it through, that that necklace represented hope." "Ironic, then, that it's about to get blown to pieces." "[GRUNTS]" " God, this is not happening." " What now?" "I can't get through." "It's like I'm not invited in." "Wait." "I'm not stopping just because you're stuck." " I'll let you know what I find." " But..." "Looks like you're gonna have to trust me." "Bonnie?" "[BONNIE CHANTS IN LATIN]" "[BOTH CHANTING IN LATIN]" "[CAROLINE GRUNTING]" "So?" "What'd you find?" "It's..." "No, no, no." "No, no." "Where'd you go?" "Mason?" "Mason?" "He's still in there, Elena." "You just have to break through." "It's okay, Lexi, I know what to do now." "You can be free." "Mama?" "[BOTH CRYING]" "You are stronger than all of this." "I'm so proud of you." " You're here." " About time." " You didn't have anyone else to call?" " No, actually, I don't." "Because I need a non-vampire to get into the cave." "Other than Elena, you're the only one I trust." "You have a crappy way of showing it." "If Mason can get over the fact I killed him, can't you cut me a little slack, Ric?" "I shouldn't have to get over it." "I was your friend, Damon." " You shouldn't have done it." " Well, sometimes I do things I don't have to do." "You're gonna recycle that same crap-ass apology you gave Mason Lockwood?" "Yeah." "Well, I didn't mean it with him." "[SIGHS]" "So what are you gonna do, Elena?" "Are you just gonna stand there waiting for me to dry out?" "No, I'm gonna go home, take care of my brother be a friend to Bonnie, and everything else that I have to do." "STEFAN:" "That's good for you." "You know, I was wondering when you were gonna give up." "Lexi give you enough of a glimpse into your tragic future?" "I haven't given up, Stefan." "I still have hope." "But there's nothing that I can do until you get yours back." "Hey." "You can break through this." "Fight for it." "Feel something." "Anything, Stefan." "Because if you don't, you're gonna lose me forever." "I won't love a ghost for the rest of my life." "JEREMY:" "Bonnie." " Just go away, Jeremy." "I owe you an explanation." "Matt let go of his sister before you let go of Anna." "His sister, Jeremy." "You know what you owe me?" "The respect of not making me listen to you explain yourself." "I am sorry, Bonnie." "You need to go." " But..." " Just go, Jeremy." "Was Mason screwing with me or is there something in there?" "Ric?" "I found something." "What is it?" "I have no idea." "[English" " US" " SDH]"
