"Previously on "the Vampire Diaries"..." "The only thing stronger than your craving for blood is your love for this one girl." "Your humanity is killing you." "Turn it off." "No!" "Turn it off!" " What did you do?" " I fixed him." "Fight for it." "Feel something" "Stefan." "you're gonna lose me forever." "The necklace is a talisman from the original witch herself." "The old witch can draw power from this side because of her talisman." "Bonnie needs to destroy it." "[Thunderclap]" "They're looking for Mikael the vampire who hunts vampires." "You don't want to wake him." "He will kill all of you." "I thought you might know how to kill Klaus." "and I will." "There's an old Lockwood family legend about it a weapon that can kill an original vampire." "they kept it buried." "I found something." "What is it?" "I have no idea."

"So you really can't get in?" "No." "Seems even the ancient Lockwoods were anti-vampire." "ancient?" "Damon:" "See for yourself." "This is as far as I go." "What is all this?" "it's a story." "In simple archaeological terms really old story." "That right there is a moon cycle." "A man." "A wolf." "A werewolf." "Yeah." "It's the Lockwood diaries pictionary style." "I don't understand." "I thought the Lockwoods came here with the original founders in the 1860s." "maybe the Lockwoods did but according to this wall these werewolves have been here a lot longer than that." "How long?" "Long." "Ric." "and they're not native." "a viking script." "Vikings?" "This name here it reads..." "Niklaus." "Klaus." "And Elijah..." "And Rebekah." "let me have at it." "Niklaus."

"These are the names of the original family?" "Carved into a cave that's..." "That's been here since way before the founding of Mystic Falls for that matter." "this has gotta be one of Klaus' fakes." "That's what I said." "That could be true except the last name up here made us think otherwise." "What's the name?" "Mikael." "Mikael." "as in the vampire hunter who knows how to kill Klaus?" "Yep."

"Mason Lockwood said that the cave would lead us to a weapon that could kill Klaus." "but doesn't Mikael have a weapon?" "which probably means the wall will lead us to Mikael who we've already found and lost." "Bang." "You're dead." "at the very least might tell us what that weapon is." "[Sighs] Then all we have to do is find out what they mean." "fine." "Fine." "If I'm being irritatingly optimistic like you two." "How do you suppose we do that?" "if the story's about the original family living here then we go straight to the source." "[Music playing]" "[Girls whooping]" "You." "Goody." "I was hoping we could talk." "About what?" "Stefan?" "Don't worry." "I'm off him until he starts treating me better." "you should probably take a page out of my book if I'm being honest." "I'd rather talk about this." "I'm curious why you and Klaus have spent a thousand years running from your father." "I should get back to the girls." "Homecoming's right around the corner." "then maybe I'll ask Mikael when we wake him." "Heh." "You're bluffing." "You don't know where he is." "No one does." "So then who's rotting in that old cemetery in Charlotte?" "we are all doomed." " So then tell me." " Why do you want to know?" "Why don't you want me to wake him?" "I need to get back to the girls." "[Blades clashing]" "Henrik." "Our brothers are fighting again." "look." "Sister's arrived to watch my fast-approaching victory." "Elijah." "She's come to laugh at you." "Ah." "Ho Ho." "Mikael." "Niklaus means well." "That is precisely my problem." "So... young warrior?" "we were just having fun." "We fight for our survival." "And you find time for fun?" "!" "I want to have fun!" "Teach me." "Come on!" "it was nothing." "my boy." "What?" "No more laughter?" "Mikael." "Raah!" "it's a miracle you're still alive..." "Boy." "Elena:" "She's going to tell me." "Damon." "I saw her face." "I just have to engage in a little mean-girl power struggle first." "Make sure she doesn't power struggle you into a wheelchair." "Damon." "If we can figure out a way to kill Klaus" "Stefan will be free of his compulsion." "So how does he look?" "Mmm." "Pasty and pouty." "He'll have to get over it." "Call me later." "Rebekah will come around." "You sure about that?" "[Cell phone chimes]" "I'm sure has learned the art of patience." "She's a thousand-year-old vampire who's joined the cheerleading squad." "Ric." "I've got this." "[Door unbolts]" "if you two are gonna keep me locked in here for the next decade" "I think we can skip the routine visits." "You know I'm not a big champion of this whole Lexi recovery plan." "But Elena thinks this place is gonna... break you down and make you feel again." "right?" "don't they?" "Humph." "Why are you here?" "What are you talking about?" "It's family day at vampire rehab." "Just paying a visit to my baby brother." "Go away." "I thought we could hang out." "Little brother bonding." "Stef?" "Huh?" "Klaus may want to keep Elena alive but that doesn't mean she's safe with Rebekah." "brother." "Klaus compelled you to protect Elena and if you thought for even a second that she was in danger you'd be working a lot harder." "You got me." "Yep." "You got me." "You're good." "Congratulations." "You can go now." "You really have given up." "this is my happy face." "What are you doing?" "Screw this Lexi plan." "I think we could both use a drink." "[Music playing] what's up?" "You invited me over to talk." "girls." "Have at it." "please." "You've compelled your own private runway show?" "I need a homecoming dress." "So what do you think?" "Pick one." "Heh." "I'm not here to help you shop." "I'm here to talk about why you don't want me to wake up Mikael." "Elena." "The red one." "was it?" "Go away." "Remember nothing." "You do not threaten me." "You will learn what I allow you to learn." "Is that clear?" "[Knock on door] there." " Bonnie." "Come on in." "Got your message." "great." "Uh..." "I'm sorry the place is such a mess." "I'm obsessed." "Brought you the necklace that wouldn't die." "That's great." "Are you ok?" "Been better." "Jeremy is an idiot and I know this with certainty because I was once a Jeremy." "Trust me." "We learn eventually." "So I've been staring at this image all day wondering why it looked so familiar..." "And I was right." "It's the same design." "So your grandmother said this necklace right?" "This symbol is repeated all across the wall and I've been trying to figure out what it meant." "Now I know." "How fun is this?" "We shouldn't be here." "Of course we should." "Come on." "Like you've never wanted to snoop." "Boxer briefs." "that's a change from the twenties." "Are you gonna root through his stuff all night or are you gonna start to tell me your story?" "[Sighs] You really are no fun." "What do you want to know?" "Elijah said that your father was a landowner in Europe." "How did you guys end up here?" "My parents had just started a family when a plague struck their homeland." "They lost a child to it." "They wanted to escape and protect their future family from the same fate." "So how did you end up here?" "This part of the world hadn't even been discovered yet." "Heh." "Not by anyone in your history books." "But my mother knew the witch Ayana who heard from the spirits of a mystical land where everyone was healthy..." "Blessed by the gifts of speed and strength." "That led my family here where we lived amongst those people." "The werewolves." "they were just our neighbors." "My family lived in peace with them for over 20 years during which time my family had more children including me." "You make it sound so normal." "It was." "our family retreated to the caves beneath our village." "The wolves would howl through the night we'd return home." "[Sizzles] you burned me." "That is not yours to touch." "Man:" "Mother!" "Is that Klaus?" "Something is wrong." " Henrik!" " Mother!" "Klaus and my youngest brother Henrik snuck out to watch the men turn into beasts." "That was forbidden." "Henrik paid the price." "no." "No." "What happened?" "The wolves." "I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry." "We must save him." "there must be a way." "Esther." "Your boy is gone." "Esther:" "No." "No." "And that was the beginning of the end of peace with our neighbors." "And one of the last moments my family had together as humans." "[Cell phone vibrating]" "[Clears throat]" "You better get that." "That'll be Damon checking up on you." "Hello." "[Music playing]" "Damon:" "Hey." "where are you?" "but I'm pretty sure I'm overdressed." "Still standing?" "but I can't talk right now." "I'll be at the bar." "Was that Stefan?" "Yeah." "I kind of went off-book but don't worry." "I know what I'm doing." "how could you let him out?" "Elena." "What are we drinking?" "Hopefully something a little bit warmer a little blonder." "Hi." " Hello..." " Hey." "Callie." "I would love a shot of your best whiskey and my brother here would love a shot of you." "Damon?" "brother." "Drink up." "It's on me." "Callie." "[music playing]" "[Quarter clinks] brother." "hmm?" "You been on this bunny diet for the better part of 50 years of all people gets good at a drinking game?" "the bunny diet gave me a lot of time to practice." "Hmm." "Wallow in despair." "Drown in guilt." "Regret my existence." "It's precision born out of tragic boredom." "brother." "All that effort wasted trying to tell you how boring you were and now you finally agree with me?" "you are worse than Elena." "Getting me drunk." "Brotherly bonding." "you think I'll break down and you can pull me back from the edge?" "Is that it?" "Stefan." "Your problem is your inability to resist falling over it." "man." "You can't just be." "Although..." "Who am I to judge?" "brother." "Did you get your fill of snooping yet?" "Can we get on with the story?" "I don't get you two as a couple." "Why would you?" "You don't know anything about who he really is." "I know exactly who he is." "He's a vampire." "We're a predatory species." "We don't have time to care about humans and their silly little lives." "Is that why you did that runway show earlier?" "If you don't care about the homecoming dance?" "You know what?" "I'm just gonna go." "You haven't even heard half the story." "And you're not going to tell it." "You're just bored and looking for someone to push around." "Find someone else to play with." "Maybe you can compel yourself a friend." "The necklace wasn't Stefan's to give." "It belonged to the original witch." "The one who put the hybrid curse on Klaus?" "Not just the hybrid curse." "She's the one who turned us into vampires." "I implore you." "You must call upon the spirits before the next full moon." "I will not." "It is a crime against nature." "we have already lost too much." "We cannot lose any more." "The spirits can help us find a way to protect our children." "I'm thirsty." "Do you want a drink?" "So vampirism was a form of protection?" "What else would it be?" "A curse." "My parents only saw a way of keeping their children alive." "but why stay?" "If they were so afraid of the werewolves why not leave?" "Pride." "My father didn't want to run anymore." "He wanted to fight and be superior to the wolves." "we had to bite harder." "we had to be faster." "senses." "Mikael:" "Everything could be heightened." "Our family could live forever." "At what cost?" "This magic you speak of breeds consequence." "Esther." "The spirits will turn on you." "Ayana." "I will have no part in it." "If she will not protect our family... my love." "Elena:" "In her hands?" "How could she do anything?" "Because my mother was also a witch." "What?" "The witch of the original family the original witch." "Where do they keep their best vintage?" "then..." "Am I?" "No." "A witch is nature's servant." "A vampire is an abomination of nature." "You can either be one or the other never both." "My mother did this for us." "She did not turn." "How did you turn?" "She called upon the sun for life and the ancient white oak tree for immortality." "my father offered us wine laced with blood." "And then he drove his sword through our hearts." "He killed you." "And he wasn't delicate about it either." "[Gasps]" "[Niklaus gasping]" "Rebekah." "Blood." "What happened?" "[Gasps]" "It'll be all right." "We will be all right." "What are you doing?" "We must finish what we started." "You have to drink if you want to live." "Rebekah:" "We had to drink more blood to complete the ritual." "Drink." "Drink!" "Drink!" "It was euphoric." "The feeling of power was indescribable." "But the witch Ayana was right about the consequences." "The spirits turned on us and nature fought back." "there would be a weakness." "[Gasps] [Sizzles]" "The sun became our enemy." "It kept us indoors for weeks." "And then my mother found a solution." "[Wind blowing]" "There were other problems." "Inside." "Neighbors who had opened to their homes to us could now keep us out." "Flowers at the base of the white oak burned and prevented compulsion." "And the spell decreed that the tree that gave us life could also take it away." "So we burned it to the ground." "But the darkest consequence was something my parents never anticipated..." "The hunger." "Blood had made us reborn and it was blood that we craved above all else." "We could not control it." "And with that..." "The predatory species was born." "[Music playing]" "Nothing to see here." "Just run along." "Okay?" "hey." "Ease up." "Ease up." "She's giving us her employee discount." "Now just run along." "[Whistles]" "time to fess up." "What's the point of the jailbreak?" "Hmm?" "Stefan." "Damon." "You know Elena's gonna hate you for letting me out and we both know that you care about what she thinks." "Maybe I wanted to remind you what freedom was like before Klaus took it from you." "As long as Klaus is alive" "I do what he says." "Stefan." "You've given up." "you can sit around and be his little bitch or you can get mad enough and you can do something about it." "he can't be killed." "Mikael:" "Maybe I can help with that." "I presume." "Mikael." "Why did Mikael start hunting Klaus?" "When Nik made his first human kill it triggered his werewolf gene." "he became my father's greatest shame." "Yeah." "Elijah told me this part of the story." "Your mother had had an affair with one of the werewolf villagers." "Klaus wasn't his son." "She tried to make it right." "She put the hybrid curse on Nik to suppress his werewolf side and then she turned her back on him" "but Mikael's greatest weakness as a human was his pride." "that was magnified." "He went on a rampage and killed half the village." "Then he came home and killed her." "Mikael killed your mother?" "He said she broke his heart so he would break hers." "He tore it from her chest as Nik watched." "my father took off in a rage and the rest of my family scattered." "Nik stayed so he could help me bury her." "He knew I had to say good-bye to my mother." "but she did not." "She was just afraid." "I'm sorry she turned her back on you." "I will never do that." "Elijah:" "Nor will I." "We stick together as one." "Always and forever." "Always and forever." "Even though he locked you in a coffin for 90 years." "We're vampires." "Our emotions are heightened." "I'm stubborn" "Elijah moral and Nik..." "Nik has no tolerance for those who disappoint him." "Over a thousand years as a family we've all made that mistake at least once." "I've made it several times." "But you still love him?" "He's my brother and I am immortal." "Should I spend an eternity alone instead?" "You've heard the story." "It's time to go." "Elena." "I don't know what you're up to but I am no longer playing along." "I'm just looking for one good reason why we shouldn't wake Mikael." "And I've given you a thousand." "But you will anyway." "I know you want him to help you kill my brother." "I'm not stupid." "It's no secret that I want Klaus dead." "He has a hold over Stefan's life and over mine." "Do what you need." "Wake Mikael at your own peril." "But make no mistake." "If you come after my brother" "I will rip you apart." "And I get my temper from my father." "Now leave." "Has Klaus entered the country?" "I can't tell you." "Has he spoken to you since he left?" "I can't tell you." "All right." "Can you tell me the last time you spoke to Niklaus?" "I am compelled to do what he says and he says to keep my damn mouth shut." "I really hope this game of 20 questions isn't your secret weapon." "Damon" "I've been a vampire Hunter longer than you've been alive." "It's why I found you here." "It's why I'm gonna find Niklaus." "Klaus has been running for about a thousand years so if you think you're gonna get a workaround he... and his heart's gone." "[Coughs] Now..." "Where is Klaus?" "Come on." "Stefan?" "and he's dead." "of course." "His emotions have been shut off." "He can't care." "Really?" "His link to Klaus is so strong that..." "He would let his own brother die?" "No ideas?" "Hmm?" "Stefan." "I guess you're right." "He's a dead end." "Damon." "Wait." "[Coughs]" "I can bring him back." "I can lure Klaus back to Mystic Falls." "[Groans]" "[Sighs]" "And there is our loophole." "Just had to rile him up a bit." "Get Klaus back to Mystic Falls and I will gladly drive a stake through his heart." "Fail..." "I'll drive it through yours." "Yeah." "Filled in what we could." "Got vampire werewolf slaughter et cetera." "Thats why Oak tree there is using to build wampires." "Which means that was when they burned down the tree destroying the only way that they could be killed." "sort of but we already knew that." "What we're not sure about is this." "We've got the witch symbol and what looks like a bleeding heart." "Upside-down figures usually signify death of some kind." "Mikael killed the witch by ripping out her heart." "But why is that one connected to the witch's death?" "I don't know." "We haven't gotten that far." "my God." "Rebekah doesn't know the real story." "I thought I told you to leave twice." "How do you know that Mikael killed your mother?" "Nik was there." "He told me." "[Sighs]" "He lied to you." "And how do you know that?" "The cave where you carved your family's names is covered in symbols the story of your family..." "How your parents arrived how they made peace the spell that turned them into vampires and this." "This is the symbol for hybrid." "It's the combination of the werewolf and the vampire symbol." "And this is the one for your mother." "Her necklace." "And this is the story of her death." "The hybrid killed the original witch." "Klaus." "No." "he wouldn't." "She put the curse on him made it so that he would be the only one and then she rejected him." "With the werewolf gene comes aggression and violence." "all of that was heightened." "Rebecca and then he made up this entire lie about your father so that he wouldn't lose you." "These mean nothing." "They're just stupid drawings." "Done by stupid people who had no idea who my family was!" "Then why are you so upset?" "Why are you doing this to me?" "I've done nothing to you." "Klaus killed your mother." "on everyone." "He has for a thousand years." "We have to make it stop." "Shut up!" "Just shut up!" "Don't talk anymore!" "Nothing!" "I give you 10 points for flair." "At least now we know where Klaus and Elijah learned their tricks from." "Don't think you had to wait till the last second though." "Heh." "Damon." "my brother's about to die and I just had to save his life for the bajillionth time." "Stefan." "Your humanity's showing." "Damon." "You're right." "You reminded me what my freedom felt like." "Ah." "And when we kill Klaus" "I'll be free free to leave." "Damon." "I did it for myself." "Stefan." "Whatever you say." "huh?" "What do you want from me?" "Why is everybody trying to save me?" "Stefan." "Because you're in this mess with Klaus because you saved my life because I owe you." "And I can't just leave you in a cell to rot." "Aww." "brother." "Your humanity's showing." "[Groans]" "[Coughs]" "[Music playing]" "[Sobbing]" "seriously?" "We got Mikael." "What?" "How?" "No idea." "I guess Katherine came through." "The plan's in motion." "See?" "Told you I had it." "scream." "I'm sure you've been planning your rant all day." "I'm not gonna yell at you." "Why not?" "freed Stefan." "And you know what?" "It backfired." "He's an even bigger dick than ever." "It's just now he's a dick that's on our side." "I'm not mad." "I'm tired." "I just..." "I want to go to bed." "I think Mikael's weapon is a stake because he mentioned something about it." "then they must have carved it from the white oak tree before they burned it down." "So I was right." "the wall led us to Mikael." "It led us to more than just that." "too." "Really?" "What'd you learn from her?" "I learned that she's just a girl then she lost her mom too young and she loves blindly and recklessly even if it consumes her." "when all is said and done there's nothing more important than the bond of family." "You should tell that to my brother." "Damon." "I think that you're gonna be the one to save him from himself." "It won't be because he loves me." "It'll be because he loves you." "Can I tell you the rest tomorrow?" "Sure."
