1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:02,750
Previously on The Vampire Diaries...
2
00:00:02,775 --> 00:00:03,640
You left your son.
3
00:00:03,642 --> 00:00:06,439
- You abandoned your family.
- I was ashamed!
4
00:00:06,441 --> 00:00:07,473
I had to get out.
5
00:00:07,475 --> 00:00:09,775
It's beautiful.
6
00:00:09,777 --> 00:00:11,744
My necklace.
7
00:00:11,746 --> 00:00:14,657
I thought I'd never see
it again. Thank you.
8
00:00:17,485 --> 00:00:20,619
You want your freedom in
exchange for these two girls.
9
00:00:20,621 --> 00:00:22,388
I'll do it. Just let the girls go.
10
00:00:22,390 --> 00:00:24,390
I could become the Ripper that you want.
11
00:00:24,392 --> 00:00:27,159
- You'd turn your humanity off?
- For a short time, yes.
12
00:00:27,161 --> 00:00:30,129
I predict that, after a year
with me, you won't want to leave.
13
00:00:30,131 --> 00:00:32,198
When it's over, you let
me and my brother go.
14
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,601
I made a deal. I serve him
for a year and then I'm done.
15
00:00:35,603 --> 00:00:37,369
What are you going to do?
16
00:00:37,371 --> 00:00:39,004
You're gonna want to get under the hood
17
00:00:39,006 --> 00:00:41,340
and flip that humanity switch, Stefan.
18
00:00:41,342 --> 00:00:43,909
Won't be so painful.
19
00:00:53,888 --> 00:00:55,488
Hi.
20
00:00:55,490 --> 00:00:57,523
I'm Damon.
21
00:00:57,525 --> 00:00:59,825
And I have anger issues.
22
00:00:59,827 --> 00:01:01,327
Hi, Damon.
23
00:01:01,329 --> 00:01:02,995
Why don't you tell
us about what brought you
24
00:01:02,997 --> 00:01:04,530
to the meeting today?
25
00:01:04,532 --> 00:01:06,599
Well, I got my brother this job...
26
00:01:06,601 --> 00:01:08,200
Actually, I asked for the job.
27
00:01:08,202 --> 00:01:10,636
Yeah. Through my connections.
28
00:01:10,638 --> 00:01:13,773
Anyway, our boss gave Stefan new orders.
29
00:01:13,775 --> 00:01:15,641
And now, we're supposed to push people
30
00:01:15,643 --> 00:01:18,611
to make evil choices,
and only then do we
31
00:01:18,613 --> 00:01:20,813
kill them and send
their souls to the devil.
32
00:01:20,815 --> 00:01:22,915
I thought we were going for like, a...
33
00:01:22,917 --> 00:01:26,152
- a veiled analogy.
- Oh, they're all compelled.
34
00:01:26,154 --> 00:01:28,521
Clarity over cleverness.
That's what I always say.
35
00:01:28,523 --> 00:01:31,457
You've literally never said that before.
36
00:01:31,459 --> 00:01:33,893
Anyway, since he got this new job,
37
00:01:33,895 --> 00:01:36,395
- he's been difficult. Full of himself.
- Okay.
38
00:01:36,397 --> 00:01:39,398
He's just jealous because I'm
better at finding new clients.
39
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,634
For instance. Who would you say
is the worst person in this room?
40
00:01:41,636 --> 00:01:43,903
Huh? Meg or Elizabeth?
41
00:01:43,905 --> 00:01:46,539
You both have said some pretty
awful things. I'm sure that,
42
00:01:46,541 --> 00:01:47,973
given the right opportunity,
43
00:01:47,975 --> 00:01:49,809
one of them would make an evil choice.
44
00:01:49,811 --> 00:01:52,244
Small potatoes. I don't
even think they make the cut.
45
00:01:52,246 --> 00:01:54,046
- Uh...
- Uh! Elizabeth. Quiet.
46
00:01:54,048 --> 00:01:56,382
- You too, Meg.
- What about you? What if
47
00:01:56,384 --> 00:01:58,284
you had to pick one person to die?
48
00:01:58,286 --> 00:01:59,939
Who would it be? Meg or Elizabeth?
49
00:01:59,964 --> 00:02:02,588
- Wait, stop right there.
- What if it was between you
50
00:02:02,590 --> 00:02:03,689
and Meg?
51
00:02:03,691 --> 00:02:05,090
Would you want Meg to die?
52
00:02:07,461 --> 00:02:10,462
Answer the question honestly.
53
00:02:11,399 --> 00:02:13,199
Yes.
54
00:02:14,368 --> 00:02:16,001
I would want her to die
55
00:02:16,003 --> 00:02:17,570
instead of me.
56
00:02:18,539 --> 00:02:19,805
Whoa.
57
00:02:20,875 --> 00:02:22,174
What if both
58
00:02:22,176 --> 00:02:24,710
Meg and Elizabeth had to die, in order
59
00:02:24,712 --> 00:02:26,412
for you to live?
60
00:02:27,849 --> 00:02:30,282
Then I'd want them both to die.
61
00:02:30,284 --> 00:02:32,885
Whoa. What if we threw in everybody?
62
00:02:32,887 --> 00:02:35,754
Choose between yourself
and these people.
63
00:02:35,756 --> 00:02:37,890
I want to live.
64
00:02:39,060 --> 00:02:41,827
I don't care about any of them.
65
00:02:43,589 --> 00:02:45,288
Mm.
66
00:02:46,801 --> 00:02:48,100
Wow.
67
00:02:48,102 --> 00:02:50,769
I think I've heard enough.
68
00:02:50,771 --> 00:02:54,073
Yeah. Me, too.
69
00:03:06,153 --> 00:03:07,386
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
70
00:03:07,388 --> 00:03:09,421
I thought we were only giving Cade
71
00:03:09,423 --> 00:03:11,891
the worst of the worst, like this guy.
72
00:03:11,893 --> 00:03:13,259
Cade can have him.
73
00:03:13,261 --> 00:03:14,627
These are mine.
74
00:03:15,930 --> 00:03:16,929
What are you doing?
75
00:03:16,931 --> 00:03:18,297
Meditating?
76
00:03:18,299 --> 00:03:20,032
It's called self-control, Damon.
77
00:03:20,034 --> 00:03:22,735
No dripping blood equals no temptation.
78
00:03:22,737 --> 00:03:24,303
I'm doing it right this time.
79
00:03:24,305 --> 00:03:26,772
Heads will remain intact.
80
00:03:26,774 --> 00:03:28,607
That's a very fine line.
81
00:03:28,609 --> 00:03:30,843
- Or a very fine neck membrane.
- You know,
82
00:03:30,845 --> 00:03:32,611
your lack of faith in
me is really starting
83
00:03:32,613 --> 00:03:34,179
to get on my nerves.
84
00:03:34,181 --> 00:03:35,948
I'm just saying, you
have a Ripper history.
85
00:03:35,950 --> 00:03:39,285
Are you sure you want to keep
testing the blood-soaked waters?
86
00:03:39,287 --> 00:03:40,653
That's why it's called history.
87
00:03:40,655 --> 00:03:42,755
It won't repeat.
88
00:03:42,757 --> 00:03:44,957
I'm all good.
89
00:03:53,567 --> 00:03:56,168
Yeah. I can see that.
90

91
00:04:03,633 --> 00:04:04,680
Dear Elena,
92
00:04:04,705 --> 00:04:06,149
Sorry it's been a while.
93
00:04:06,174 --> 00:04:07,841
Three weeks, to be exact.
94
00:04:07,866 --> 00:04:09,745
By now Bonnie's probably filled
95
00:04:09,770 --> 00:04:12,528
pages and pages about
how amazing Paris is.
96
00:04:12,553 --> 00:04:14,720
And Ric promised he'd write to you
97
00:04:14,722 --> 00:04:18,590
from his self-imposed witness
protection with our kids.
98
00:04:18,592 --> 00:04:21,226
That leaves me, catching
up on work projects
99
00:04:21,228 --> 00:04:23,329
and trying not to think about the past.
100
00:04:23,331 --> 00:04:27,474
Which is ironic, considering
where my boss sent me today.
101
00:04:28,669 --> 00:04:30,569
By the way, Mystic Falls High School
102
00:04:30,571 --> 00:04:33,539
looks exactly the same
as when you last saw it.
103
00:04:33,541 --> 00:04:35,474
I'm sure you've noticed
there's someone missing
104
00:04:35,476 --> 00:04:36,742
from this entry.
105
00:04:36,744 --> 00:04:38,811
Stefan is with Damon now.
106
00:04:38,813 --> 00:04:41,013
I don't know where he
is, or what he's doing,
107
00:04:41,015 --> 00:04:42,481
but I know it isn't good.
108
00:04:42,483 --> 00:04:44,516
So I'm doing everything I can
109
00:04:44,518 --> 00:04:47,586
to think about other things instead.
110
00:04:47,588 --> 00:04:49,188
Like I said,
111
00:04:49,190 --> 00:04:51,123
there's always work.
112
00:04:51,125 --> 00:04:53,859
Yeah. I'm, like, an embedded journalist,
113
00:04:53,861 --> 00:04:55,561
only in history class.
114
00:04:55,563 --> 00:04:56,595
Slow news day?
115
00:04:56,597 --> 00:04:57,696
Yeah. The school's doing
116
00:04:57,698 --> 00:04:59,264
a big ramp-up for Founder's Day.
117
00:04:59,266 --> 00:05:02,134
They specifically requested
me, for the alumni angle.
118
00:05:02,136 --> 00:05:05,170
But I was just calling to see
what you were doing for lunch.
119
00:05:05,172 --> 00:05:07,706
You know? I could save you
a seat in the cafeteria.
120
00:05:07,708 --> 00:05:08,974
Raincheck.
121
00:05:08,976 --> 00:05:10,776
I'm on my way out to the Armory
122
00:05:10,778 --> 00:05:13,946
to deliver the St. John
box that Tyler left behind.
123
00:05:13,948 --> 00:05:16,081
Just doing Ric a favor.
124
00:05:16,083 --> 00:05:18,517
You doing okay?
125
00:05:18,519 --> 00:05:21,320
I'm... fine.
126
00:05:21,322 --> 00:05:23,489
You know, this is only temporary.
127
00:05:23,491 --> 00:05:26,925
All of this is... temporary.
128
00:05:26,927 --> 00:05:29,128
I'll tell you what.
129
00:05:29,130 --> 00:05:31,096
If you sneak into Coach Lyman's office
130
00:05:31,098 --> 00:05:33,065
and write something really
rude in his playbook,
131
00:05:33,067 --> 00:05:36,035
drinks are on me tonight at the Grill.
132
00:05:36,037 --> 00:05:38,437
"Something rude" like impolite,
133
00:05:38,439 --> 00:05:41,640
or "something rude"
like really disgusting?
134
00:05:41,642 --> 00:05:43,876
- Dealer's choice.
- You're on.
135
00:05:45,079 --> 00:05:46,278
Ugh!
136
00:05:46,280 --> 00:05:47,546
I do not miss that sound.
137
00:05:47,548 --> 00:05:48,747
Yeah. Me neither.
138
00:05:48,749 --> 00:05:50,449
Happy embedding.
139
00:05:50,451 --> 00:05:52,451
Thanks. Talk to you later.
140
00:05:55,256 --> 00:05:57,756
Anybody here?
141
00:05:57,758 --> 00:06:00,192
Hello?
142
00:06:00,194 --> 00:06:01,794
You must be Matt.
143
00:06:01,796 --> 00:06:03,228
I'm Dorian.
144
00:06:03,230 --> 00:06:04,763
Yeah. Ric said you'd be in charge
145
00:06:04,765 --> 00:06:06,465
while he was on his sabbatical.
146
00:06:06,467 --> 00:06:09,902
You mean while he's hiding
his kids from the sirens.
147
00:06:11,572 --> 00:06:13,372
He told me what really
happened to Georgie.
148
00:06:13,374 --> 00:06:15,407
Said he wanted to give me fair warning
149
00:06:15,409 --> 00:06:16,775
about who I'd be fighting against
150
00:06:16,777 --> 00:06:18,677
if I stayed.
151
00:06:18,679 --> 00:06:20,779
Welcome to the circle of trust.
152
00:06:22,650 --> 00:06:25,184
Seline murdered my friend.
153
00:06:25,186 --> 00:06:27,553
I mean to figure out how to get payback.
154
00:06:27,555 --> 00:06:29,088
And since our only weapon is currently
155
00:06:29,090 --> 00:06:30,355
traveling through Paris...
156
00:06:30,357 --> 00:06:31,723
- You mean the tuning fork?
- Actually,
157
00:06:31,725 --> 00:06:33,525
it'sitctually called
the staff of Arcadius.
158
00:06:33,527 --> 00:06:35,027
Cade's enemies forged it in the fire
159
00:06:35,029 --> 00:06:36,228
- that killed him.
- If you say so.
160
00:06:36,230 --> 00:06:37,229
Wasn't me that said so.
161
00:06:37,231 --> 00:06:38,797
It was Harvey. In his journal.
162
00:06:38,799 --> 00:06:40,232
Georgie had it in her car.
163
00:06:40,234 --> 00:06:41,867
Seems our dead guy,
Harvey, was friends with
164
00:06:41,869 --> 00:06:43,368
the sirens, back in 1790.
165
00:06:43,370 --> 00:06:44,603
They lured him into the Armory tunnels,
166
00:06:44,605 --> 00:06:45,938
and he starved to death down there.
167
00:06:45,940 --> 00:06:47,506
We found his bones a couple months ago.
168
00:06:47,508 --> 00:06:49,441
DNA results got back yesterday.
169
00:06:49,443 --> 00:06:50,676
Oh!
170
00:06:50,678 --> 00:06:52,511
- Awesome.
- Yeah. Turns out,
171
00:06:52,513 --> 00:06:54,880
he was related to a
family from Mystic Falls.
172
00:06:54,882 --> 00:06:56,949
And through the magic
that is the Internet,
173
00:06:56,951 --> 00:06:58,851
I've tracked down a living descendant.
174
00:06:58,853 --> 00:07:01,253
He's here to claim the
remains. Hey, Mr. Maxwell.
175
00:07:01,255 --> 00:07:03,021
Did you finish signing those forms?
176
00:07:07,061 --> 00:07:10,129
You... you two know each other?
177
00:07:14,568 --> 00:07:16,935
And on top of everything she
does, she even volunteered
178
00:07:16,937 --> 00:07:19,171
- to organize Miss Mystic Falls.
- Wow!
179
00:07:19,173 --> 00:07:21,594
Your teacher sure does
have a lot on her plate.
180
00:07:21,619 --> 00:07:23,876
Yeah, but I help her out
with projects. We all do.
181
00:07:23,878 --> 00:07:25,043
Everyone loves her.
182
00:07:25,045 --> 00:07:26,812
Good morning, everyone.
183
00:07:26,814 --> 00:07:28,647
Good morning, Miss Sybil.
184
00:07:29,750 --> 00:07:31,250
What are you doing here?
185
00:07:32,786 --> 00:07:35,654
Well, yesterday, we finished
the Revolutionary War
186
00:07:35,656 --> 00:07:37,489
so today we're gonna start on the 1800s.
187
00:07:37,491 --> 00:07:39,324
No. I mean, why are you masquerading
188
00:07:39,326 --> 00:07:42,327
- as a history teacher?
- I'm not masquerading. I give a lot
189
00:07:42,329 --> 00:07:44,263
of homework. And pop quizzes, right?
190
00:07:44,265 --> 00:07:47,099
You're the best teacher at this school.
191
00:07:47,101 --> 00:07:49,368
Are you mind-controlling these kids?
192
00:07:49,370 --> 00:07:51,470
I made them love
history. Is that a crime?
193
00:07:51,472 --> 00:07:53,939
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Before
you try to attack me,
194
00:07:53,941 --> 00:07:56,175
or call the police,
or ask anyone for help,
195
00:07:56,177 --> 00:07:58,310
just know that if you
do, none of these kids
196
00:07:58,312 --> 00:08:00,879
are gonna make it to their next class.
197
00:08:02,016 --> 00:08:04,750
Can we just skip to the part
where you tell me what you want?
198
00:08:04,775 --> 00:08:06,952
Sure. If we skip to
the part where you admit
199
00:08:06,954 --> 00:08:08,820
that you would rather be doing anything
200
00:08:08,822 --> 00:08:11,190
except think about what
Stefan's doing right now.
201
00:08:11,192 --> 00:08:13,926
Who he's murdering while
his emotions are off.
202
00:08:13,928 --> 00:08:15,661
And in answer to your question,
203
00:08:15,663 --> 00:08:17,496
I want to teach you history.
204
00:08:17,498 --> 00:08:18,830
Why else would I have told your boss
205
00:08:18,832 --> 00:08:20,832
to send you here on an assignment?
206
00:08:20,834 --> 00:08:23,769
The news assignment came from you.
207
00:08:23,771 --> 00:08:26,004
I just said that.
208
00:08:26,006 --> 00:08:28,140
You mustn't have beenbe
very good student.
209
00:08:28,142 --> 00:08:29,841
We're gonna have to try to remedy that.
210
00:08:29,843 --> 00:08:32,477
Students, please turn to chapter three.
211
00:08:32,479 --> 00:08:33,845
"Antebellum Virginia."
212
00:08:33,847 --> 00:08:35,747
Ms. Forbes?
213
00:08:35,749 --> 00:08:37,616
You can take a seat.
214
00:08:44,992 --> 00:08:46,091
What about her?
215
00:08:46,093 --> 00:08:47,859
- Over there.
- That rich lady?
216
00:08:49,111 --> 00:08:50,796
Nah. If we sent people to Cade
217
00:08:50,798 --> 00:08:52,097
just for being bad tippers,
218
00:08:52,099 --> 00:08:53,632
there'd be no room left in hell.
219
00:08:53,634 --> 00:08:55,467
All right, fine. Let's just
go with the server then.
220
00:08:55,469 --> 00:08:57,636
- She looks angry already.
- We just did anger.
221
00:08:57,638 --> 00:09:00,305
Besides, judging by the pool
of candidates we have here,
222
00:09:00,307 --> 00:09:03,875
she's probably the only one
that already worships the devil.
223
00:09:03,877 --> 00:09:05,544
She's hardly a challenge, Stefan.
224
00:09:05,546 --> 00:09:07,079
You want a challenge, huh?
225
00:09:07,081 --> 00:09:08,880
Yeah. Hmm.
226
00:09:10,084 --> 00:09:12,050
Let's go with that woman, right there.
227
00:09:12,052 --> 00:09:14,319
The old woman? Spilling
stuff everywhere?
228
00:09:14,321 --> 00:09:16,655
- What are we doing, mercy killings?
- No.
229
00:09:16,657 --> 00:09:18,490
The doctor helping her.
230
00:09:32,740 --> 00:09:36,208
Well, how do you know she's
a doctor and not some orderly?
231
00:09:36,210 --> 00:09:38,410
Manicured nails... Means she doesn't
232
00:09:38,412 --> 00:09:40,579
work with her hands. Medical
pager means she's on call.
233
00:09:40,581 --> 00:09:42,981
Only in her 20s and already a doctor?
234
00:09:42,983 --> 00:09:44,750
Huh. Must have graduated early.
235
00:09:44,752 --> 00:09:46,618
Really thrown herself into her work.
236
00:09:46,620 --> 00:09:48,787
- Why do you think that is, Damon?
- I don't know, Stefan.
237
00:09:48,789 --> 00:09:51,056
Maybe she had a brother that
bored the crap out of her?
238
00:09:51,058 --> 00:09:53,859
Or maybe, she's driven
by something dark.
239
00:09:53,861 --> 00:09:56,561
Some sort of pain in her past.
240
00:09:56,563 --> 00:09:59,031
Not everybody 's a big
ball of angst like you.
241
00:09:59,033 --> 00:10:01,500
Maybe she's driven by something good.
242
00:10:01,502 --> 00:10:03,600
Those sound like some bettin'
words to me, Damon.
243
00:10:03,625 --> 00:10:06,505
Oh, really? Sounds like
some winnin' words to me.
244
00:10:06,507 --> 00:10:07,506
Well...
245
00:10:07,508 --> 00:10:10,042
Only one way to find out, right?
246
00:10:12,980 --> 00:10:15,514
Shh.
247
00:10:15,516 --> 00:10:17,616
Oh, my God. Is there a doctor here?
248
00:10:28,259 --> 00:10:30,092
Vervain? Come on, man.
249
00:10:30,094 --> 00:10:32,461
Don't you trust me to play
along with your attempt
250
00:10:32,463 --> 00:10:33,996
to corrupt the good doctor?
251
00:10:33,998 --> 00:10:35,430
Well, I got to sell your hospital stay
252
00:10:35,432 --> 00:10:36,932
with a little bit of
actual weakness, right?
253
00:10:36,934 --> 00:10:39,134
I did some Internet stalking.
254
00:10:39,136 --> 00:10:41,403
So, it turns out that Tara's mom and dad
255
00:10:41,405 --> 00:10:43,705
were both killed in a car
accident ten years ago.
256
00:10:43,707 --> 00:10:45,040
It was a hit-and-run.
257
00:10:45,042 --> 00:10:46,475
They never found the driver.
258
00:10:46,477 --> 00:10:49,278
I told you she was
driven by something dark.
259
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,314
All I've heard is sad, Stefan.
260
00:10:52,316 --> 00:10:54,249
I haven't heard dark.
261
00:10:54,251 --> 00:10:57,486
Maybe your spidey-sense
is wrong about her, pal.
262
00:10:57,488 --> 00:11:00,189
Oh, my spidey-sense is
doing just fine, thank you.
263
00:11:00,191 --> 00:11:01,390
Listen to this.
264
00:11:01,392 --> 00:11:03,659
Her parents were both organ donors
265
00:11:03,661 --> 00:11:06,461
and their untimely passing
saved other people's lives.
266
00:11:06,463 --> 00:11:07,930
That's why Tara went intmene.
267
00:11:07,932 --> 00:11:09,565
- Really?
- She even volunteers her time
268
00:11:09,567 --> 00:11:11,333
at an organ-transplant support group.
269
00:11:11,335 --> 00:11:13,569
That's a little morbid, if you ask me.
270
00:11:15,739 --> 00:11:17,673
Although actually, it's, uh...
271
00:11:18,943 --> 00:11:21,243
...it's perfect.
272
00:11:22,980 --> 00:11:25,747
I can't believe Ric
agreed to let her go.
273
00:11:25,749 --> 00:11:26,715
And you guys haven't seen her
274
00:11:26,717 --> 00:11:28,116
- since Christmas?
- No.
275
00:11:28,118 --> 00:11:29,618
Yeah, I was out of town.
276
00:11:29,620 --> 00:11:31,353
That's his specialty.
277
00:11:31,355 --> 00:11:33,355
Here's another
artifact that could help.
278
00:11:33,357 --> 00:11:35,991
Mr. Skeleton Maxwell was
a metalsmith, circa 1790.
279
00:11:35,993 --> 00:11:37,559
In his journal, he made
sketches of something
280
00:11:37,561 --> 00:11:39,127
that he smithyed-up before he died.
281
00:11:39,129 --> 00:11:40,529
Now, according to Dalton St. John,
282
00:11:40,531 --> 00:11:41,697
the surviving Maxwells
283
00:11:41,699 --> 00:11:43,198
made a family heirloom out of it.
284
00:11:45,095 --> 00:11:46,435
That look familiar?
285
00:11:47,705 --> 00:11:49,104
No, not really.
286
00:11:49,106 --> 00:11:50,839
But it could have been
inside the family storage box
287
00:11:50,841 --> 00:11:52,490
that Damon came looking for.
288
00:11:53,429 --> 00:11:54,895
Yeah. Meanwhile,
289
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:55,711
the rest of Dalton's writings
290
00:11:55,713 --> 00:11:57,212
from 1883 were about Seline.
291
00:11:57,214 --> 00:11:58,580
"What Seline wants."
292
00:11:58,582 --> 00:12:00,115
He lists precise measurements from neck,
293
00:12:00,117 --> 00:12:02,017
shoulder, lip, tongue...
294
00:12:02,019 --> 00:12:03,285
Yeah, I'd say he was obsessed with her.
295
00:12:03,287 --> 00:12:04,817
He even measured her for a crown.
296
00:12:05,837 --> 00:12:07,036
Wait, hang on.
297
00:12:07,061 --> 00:12:08,827
Let me see that list.
298
00:12:11,056 --> 00:12:13,790
These are all parts of a bell.
299
00:12:14,632 --> 00:12:16,031
Neck, shoulder, lip, crown...
300
00:12:16,033 --> 00:12:17,466
They're metalworking terms.
301
00:12:17,468 --> 00:12:18,934
The measurements make sense.
302
00:12:18,936 --> 00:12:20,535
- Really?
- Yeah.
303
00:12:20,537 --> 00:12:21,970
The Maxwells used to be in the business
304
00:12:21,972 --> 00:12:23,238
of making church bells.
305
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,573
That's how our family metalworks
306
00:12:24,575 --> 00:12:25,874
started, back in the day.
307
00:12:25,876 --> 00:12:27,743
- That's cool.
- Yeah.
308
00:12:27,745 --> 00:12:30,012
You got a really low bar for "cool."
309
00:12:39,569 --> 00:12:42,157
Well, no diagnosis yet.
310
00:12:42,159 --> 00:12:44,660
His blood work came
back completely normal.
311
00:12:46,163 --> 00:12:47,396
Well, I guess I always knew
312
00:12:47,398 --> 00:12:48,830
something like this would happen.
313
00:12:48,832 --> 00:12:50,465
Why do you say that?
314
00:12:50,467 --> 00:12:52,067
It's just karma.
315
00:12:52,069 --> 00:12:54,670
He's made a lot of dark
choices in his life.
316
00:12:54,672 --> 00:12:57,472
Hurt a lot of people along the way.
317
00:12:57,474 --> 00:13:00,008
I don't think you should
be telling me this.
318
00:13:00,010 --> 00:13:01,543
You know, I can't help but think that
319
00:13:01,545 --> 00:13:03,852
maybe this is all
happening for a reason.
320
00:13:03,877 --> 00:13:05,747
I was on an organ donor Web site today,
321
00:13:05,749 --> 00:13:07,883
and I saw a list of all
these people... these really
322
00:13:07,885 --> 00:13:10,485
deserving people... just
waiting in line for a transplant.
323
00:13:10,487 --> 00:13:12,821
Mm. And your brother is an organ donor.
324
00:13:12,823 --> 00:13:14,790
Yes, I saw that on his intake form.
325
00:13:14,792 --> 00:13:16,692
Look, it doesn't do
any good to speculate.
326
00:13:16,694 --> 00:13:17,693
Why not?
327
00:13:17,695 --> 00:13:19,127
I mean, I-I saw this one girl,
328
00:13:19,129 --> 00:13:20,996
she's all the way at
the top of the list.
329
00:13:20,998 --> 00:13:22,164
Her name is Kassie Fowler.
330
00:13:22,166 --> 00:13:23,165
Yeah, I know her.
331
00:13:23,167 --> 00:13:24,566
She's a patient of mine.
332
00:13:24,568 --> 00:13:26,234
She's a really good kid.
333
00:13:26,236 --> 00:13:28,070
Her profile says she wants
to go to developing countries
334
00:13:28,072 --> 00:13:31,640
and-and build wells and get clean water.
335
00:13:31,642 --> 00:13:33,241
- Mm.
- It's not her fault
336
00:13:33,243 --> 00:13:35,143
that her kidneys are failing. So, what,
337
00:13:35,145 --> 00:13:36,812
Damon gets to waste his life
338
00:13:36,814 --> 00:13:39,181
and she's not able to live hers?
339
00:13:39,183 --> 00:13:41,817
I can't think like that, sadly.
340
00:13:41,819 --> 00:13:44,886
As a doctor, every life has
to be as important as the next.
341
00:13:44,888 --> 00:13:47,289
Hmm.
342
00:13:47,291 --> 00:13:50,025
Even after everything that he's done?
343
00:13:50,027 --> 00:13:52,361
Well, whatever you feel
about your brother's past...
344
00:13:52,363 --> 00:13:55,322
What if I told you that he
caused seur parents' death?
345
00:13:56,066 --> 00:13:57,232
What?
346
00:13:58,736 --> 00:14:01,737
My parents were killed
by a drunk driver.
347
00:14:01,739 --> 00:14:03,138
Why would you say that?
348
00:14:03,140 --> 00:14:04,373
Because you...
349
00:14:04,375 --> 00:14:05,707
need an opportunity.
350
00:14:05,709 --> 00:14:07,275
Here's what you believe.
351
00:14:07,277 --> 00:14:10,781
Damon is a drunk driver.
352
00:14:10,806 --> 00:14:14,211
Damon is the one who
killed your parents.
353
00:14:25,157 --> 00:14:27,129
Stack the deck, why don't you?
354
00:14:27,131 --> 00:14:29,998
Cade never said I
couldn't take a shortcut.
355
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,200
I told you she'd be a challenge. Hmm.
356
00:14:32,202 --> 00:14:33,435
What are you so pleased about?
357
00:14:33,437 --> 00:14:34,870
You're supposed to be on task.
358
00:14:34,872 --> 00:14:36,104
All I'm saying is maybe
359
00:14:36,106 --> 00:14:37,839
some people can't be corrupted.
360
00:14:37,841 --> 00:14:40,842
Maybe she's just plain good.
361
00:14:40,844 --> 00:14:43,745
Mm. No one is just plain good.
362
00:14:43,747 --> 00:14:45,180
You'll see.
363
00:14:46,383 --> 00:14:47,916
Hey, what are you doing?
364
00:14:47,918 --> 00:14:50,285
Oh, just upping your vervain intake.
365
00:14:50,287 --> 00:14:51,420
What? No.
366
00:14:51,422 --> 00:14:53,155
I need to create a medical emergency
367
00:14:53,157 --> 00:14:54,990
in order for the rest
of the game to play out.
368
00:14:54,992 --> 00:14:56,892
Can you stop cheating
for just one second?
369
00:14:56,894 --> 00:14:58,093
Damon,
370
00:14:58,095 --> 00:15:00,529
I work for the devil.
371
00:15:00,531 --> 00:15:03,065
I don't have to play fair.
372
00:15:03,067 --> 00:15:05,100
Mmm...
373
00:15:08,105 --> 00:15:10,972
Who can tell me when Mystic Falls
374
00:15:10,974 --> 00:15:12,726
officially became a town?
375
00:15:13,811 --> 00:15:15,377
Caroline?
376
00:15:15,379 --> 00:15:16,878
Do you remember anything you learned
377
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,246
in this incredibly ugly building,
378
00:15:18,248 --> 00:15:19,681
all those years ago?
379
00:15:19,683 --> 00:15:21,783
Mystic Falls was founded in 1860
380
00:15:21,785 --> 00:15:23,919
when a Lockwood, a Forbes,
381
00:15:23,921 --> 00:15:26,054
a Fell, a Gilbert and a Salvatore
382
00:15:26,056 --> 00:15:27,923
gathered to sign the township charter.
383
00:15:27,925 --> 00:15:30,559
Name-dropper. And... wrong.
384
00:15:30,561 --> 00:15:32,860
Those are the Founding Families.
385
00:15:32,885 --> 00:15:34,765
Your ancestors took credit, yes.
386
00:15:34,790 --> 00:15:37,099
But long before they
picked up turkey feathers
387
00:15:37,101 --> 00:15:38,467
to write that silly charter,
388
00:15:38,469 --> 00:15:40,235
there were other people here.
389
00:15:40,237 --> 00:15:42,270
A group of men and
women who were different.
390
00:15:42,272 --> 00:15:44,106
Misunderstood. Ultimately,
391
00:15:44,108 --> 00:15:46,775
they burned to death
because of who they were.
392
00:15:46,777 --> 00:15:48,110
Are you talking about
the hundred witches
393
00:15:48,112 --> 00:15:49,511
who were burned at the stake here?
394
00:15:49,513 --> 00:15:51,880
1790.
395
00:15:51,882 --> 00:15:54,483
I remember it like it was yesterday.
396
00:15:54,485 --> 00:15:56,885
It was the most delicious smell.
397
00:15:56,887 --> 00:15:59,121
The smoke lasted for hours.
398
00:15:59,123 --> 00:16:01,523
How could you know that?
399
00:16:01,525 --> 00:16:04,626
Who wants to go on a field trip?
400
00:16:04,628 --> 00:16:05,994
Me, too.
401
00:16:05,996 --> 00:16:07,829
The bus is outside.
402
00:16:10,134 --> 00:16:11,266
And Miss Forbes,
403
00:16:11,268 --> 00:16:13,768
you can sit with me.
404
00:16:14,638 --> 00:16:16,838
I don't think so.
405
00:16:20,177 --> 00:16:21,610
Oh, look at that,
406
00:16:21,612 --> 00:16:23,945
I've perfected my
long-distance technique.
407
00:16:23,947 --> 00:16:25,180
Your blood isn't gonna save him,
408
00:16:25,182 --> 00:16:27,149
I've told his mind to shut down.
409
00:16:29,119 --> 00:16:31,219
If anyone dies here, your little
410
00:16:31,221 --> 00:16:32,954
"apple for the teacher" act gets blown.
411
00:16:32,956 --> 00:16:35,090
It might be worth it.
412
00:16:35,092 --> 00:16:37,159
But for now, get up.
413
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,301
Consider that a warning.
414
00:16:46,303 --> 00:16:48,503
Any deaths today will be your fault,
415
00:16:48,505 --> 00:16:50,705
and will go on your scorecard for hell.
416
00:16:55,445 --> 00:16:57,078
Coming?
417
00:17:04,363 --> 00:17:07,234
This place has
gone downhill since 1790.
418
00:17:07,259 --> 00:17:10,135
I always forget you're
so much older than you look.
419
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:11,918
Talk to me in a couple thousand years,
420
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,486
we'll see how you're holding up.
421
00:17:13,488 --> 00:17:15,855
Do I want to know why your
last visit to this field
422
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:16,971
was around the same time
423
00:17:16,996 --> 00:17:18,558
a hundred witches burned to death?
424
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,259
I had been traveling the region
425
00:17:20,261 --> 00:17:22,762
with my sister, looking for
tasty souls to feed to Cade,
426
00:17:22,764 --> 00:17:24,564
and the witches took exception.
427
00:17:24,566 --> 00:17:26,699
Are you saying it's your
fault the witches were burned
428
00:17:26,701 --> 00:17:28,368
- at the stake?
- Clearly, you don't know
429
00:17:28,370 --> 00:17:31,537
the full story. How the
hundhud witches really died.
430
00:17:31,539 --> 00:17:33,740
Why do I feel like
you're about to break into song?
431
00:17:33,742 --> 00:17:35,174
Don't tempt me.
432
00:17:35,176 --> 00:17:37,010
The witches gave some magical help
433
00:17:37,012 --> 00:17:40,046
to a local metalsmith who was
making a church bell for them.
434
00:17:40,048 --> 00:17:42,115
This bell had a special purpose.
435
00:17:42,117 --> 00:17:44,984
But what no one realized was
that Seline and I had befriended
436
00:17:44,986 --> 00:17:47,120
this metalsmith.
437
00:17:47,122 --> 00:17:49,255
We threw a little wrinkle into his plan.
438
00:17:54,562 --> 00:17:56,195
Wait... What are they doing?
439
00:17:56,197 --> 00:17:59,699
Call it extra credit.
440
00:17:59,701 --> 00:18:02,101
I found some descriptions
of an antique church bell
441
00:18:02,103 --> 00:18:03,469
in your family estate records.
442
00:18:03,471 --> 00:18:05,705
Wait, we have an estate?
443
00:18:05,707 --> 00:18:08,576
Oh, we did. Most of it was sold
to the town of Mystic Falls,
444
00:18:08,601 --> 00:18:09,990
to try to pay off our family debt.
445
00:18:10,015 --> 00:18:11,210
Grandma, she...
446
00:18:11,212 --> 00:18:12,679
she liked the ponies.
447
00:18:12,681 --> 00:18:13,980
One more thing to be proud of.
448
00:18:13,982 --> 00:18:16,015
Anyway, according to this,
449
00:18:16,017 --> 00:18:17,450
the bell measurements are an exact match
450
00:18:17,452 --> 00:18:19,085
to what Dalton St. John wrote about.
451
00:18:19,087 --> 00:18:21,287
That's what Seline was
looking for in 1883.
452
00:18:21,289 --> 00:18:23,385
Why would she care
about our church bell?
453
00:18:23,410 --> 00:18:24,657
Peter Maxwell
454
00:18:24,659 --> 00:18:27,026
was the last one to have his
hands on that witches' bell.
455
00:18:27,028 --> 00:18:29,228
Right up until he threw it off a bridge,
456
00:18:29,230 --> 00:18:30,630
some 20-odd years ago.
457
00:18:30,632 --> 00:18:32,865
I looked into his mind
and I saw the whole thing.
458
00:18:32,867 --> 00:18:35,368
Some kind of a parade, a
bell hanging on a float.
459
00:18:35,370 --> 00:18:37,103
The Founder's Day parade.
460
00:18:37,105 --> 00:18:39,172
They ring the charter bell every year.
461
00:18:39,174 --> 00:18:40,406
It's a replica.
462
00:18:40,408 --> 00:18:42,141
The real one went over something
463
00:18:42,143 --> 00:18:44,510
called Wickery Bridge in 1992.
464
00:18:44,512 --> 00:18:45,978
Anyway, I have spent
465
00:18:45,980 --> 00:18:47,246
the last three weeks
466
00:18:47,248 --> 00:18:48,481
sending people into that river
467
00:18:48,483 --> 00:18:49,982
to look for that bell,
468
00:18:49,984 --> 00:18:51,784
and they haven't found
a thing... but I know
469
00:18:51,786 --> 00:18:54,721
it still exists, because
it can't be destroyed.
470
00:18:54,723 --> 00:18:56,626
That's not ominous.
471
00:18:56,651 --> 00:18:57,984
Blame the witches.
472
00:18:58,009 --> 00:19:00,693
No wonder people found them so annoying.
473
00:19:00,695 --> 00:19:02,662
Now, please.
474
00:19:11,229 --> 00:19:12,167
No.
475
00:19:17,979 --> 00:19:19,946
No, you can't be serious.
476
00:19:19,948 --> 00:19:22,982
Use the whole can, children.
Thoroughness is important.
477
00:19:26,988 --> 00:19:28,654
Violet, stop.
478
00:19:28,656 --> 00:19:30,256
Violet!
479
00:19:32,794 --> 00:19:34,827
- No, everybody stop!
- Uh, hello?
480
00:19:34,829 --> 00:19:36,429
They're sirened. Oh,
481
00:19:36,431 --> 00:19:38,865
you brought the lighter. Of
course you did. Good girl.
482
00:19:41,136 --> 00:19:42,168
Ooh.
483
00:19:46,207 --> 00:19:49,342
- Let them go.
- Any other useless demands?
484
00:19:49,344 --> 00:19:52,779
I'm not gonna release them
until you bring me that bell.
485
00:19:52,781 --> 00:19:54,380
What do you even want this bell for?
486
00:19:54,382 --> 00:19:56,015
I'm sentimental. I want it.
487
00:19:56,017 --> 00:19:57,383
And I need your help to find it.
488
00:19:57,385 --> 00:19:58,751
Or everyone dies, is that it?
489
00:19:58,753 --> 00:20:00,419
Well, you can't save them all.
490
00:20:00,421 --> 00:20:03,156
I mean, torches, lighter fluid... poof.
491
00:20:03,158 --> 00:20:05,625
Yeah, I know how fire works.
492
00:20:07,228 --> 00:20:09,829
How exactly am I supposed
to find this bell anyway?
493
00:20:09,831 --> 00:20:13,032
I didn't expect it would be easy.
494
00:20:13,034 --> 00:20:16,903
That's why I've given
you an incentive. Hmm?
495
00:20:23,578 --> 00:20:26,345
His blood pressure's bottoming out.
496
00:20:26,347 --> 00:20:28,347
He barely has a heartbeat.
497
00:20:28,349 --> 00:20:30,383
Tara, listen to me.
498
00:20:30,385 --> 00:20:33,252
- Please don't talk.
- Please.
499
00:20:33,254 --> 00:20:34,320
Come closer.
500
00:20:34,322 --> 00:20:36,422
Please.
501
00:20:36,424 --> 00:20:38,424
Look at me.
502
00:20:38,426 --> 00:20:40,326
I was never...
503
00:20:40,328 --> 00:20:42,628
a drunk driver.
504
00:20:45,386 --> 00:20:46,886
Oh.
505
00:20:48,369 --> 00:20:49,735
Sorry, Damon.
506
00:20:51,372 --> 00:20:53,406
You're too weak to
convince her otherwise.
507
00:20:53,408 --> 00:20:55,007
Mm.
508
00:20:55,009 --> 00:20:57,076
Tara.
509
00:20:57,078 --> 00:21:00,146
Show him I'm right about you.
510
00:21:00,148 --> 00:21:02,846
Give me a chance to redeem myself.
511
00:21:02,871 --> 00:21:05,251
No matter what you do, her
parents will still be gone.
512
00:21:05,253 --> 00:21:08,221
Your mistakes can never be undone.
513
00:21:08,223 --> 00:21:10,389
My life is worth something.
514
00:21:10,414 --> 00:21:12,535
So is your death.
515
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,527
Think about how much good you would do
516
00:21:14,529 --> 00:21:16,896
for the people who
actually deserve to live.
517
00:21:16,898 --> 00:21:18,564
Uh...
518
00:21:28,109 --> 00:21:29,965
I-I think you shouldn't be in here.
519
00:21:29,990 --> 00:21:32,123
His heart's already failing.
520
00:21:32,847 --> 00:21:35,248
Maybe we should just wait it out.
521
00:21:35,250 --> 00:21:38,484
I took an oath to help people.
522
00:21:38,486 --> 00:21:40,119
I understand, I do.
523
00:21:40,121 --> 00:21:42,255
But here's what I can't
stop thinking about.
524
00:21:42,257 --> 00:21:43,723
You fix Damon's heart,
525
00:21:43,725 --> 00:21:45,725
you get him back up on his feet again.
526
00:21:45,727 --> 00:21:47,560
Then he goes back to drinking.
527
00:21:47,562 --> 00:21:49,495
Then one night he gets behind the wheel,
528
00:21:49,497 --> 00:21:51,998
causes another accident.
529
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,066
Someone else's parents die.
530
00:21:54,068 --> 00:21:56,969
Or maybe this time
it's a couple of kids.
531
00:21:56,971 --> 00:21:59,038
We can't predict the future.
532
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,441
I know, but we can judge the past.
533
00:22:02,443 --> 00:22:05,778
How many times does Damon have
to show us who he really is
534
00:22:05,780 --> 00:22:07,914
before we actually believe him?
535
00:22:07,916 --> 00:22:10,149
I understand your struggle, I really do.
536
00:22:10,151 --> 00:22:12,585
Trying to be perfect for everyone
537
00:22:12,587 --> 00:22:15,154
when all you want to do is
make a choice for yourself.
538
00:22:15,156 --> 00:22:17,189
This is not about me.
539
00:22:17,191 --> 00:22:19,926
Yes, it is, because you are in charge.
540
00:22:19,928 --> 00:22:22,728
So follow your instincts,
541
00:22:22,730 --> 00:22:26,332
and do what you think is right.
542
00:22:35,054 --> 00:22:37,421
I-I think you should leave.
543
00:22:39,463 --> 00:22:41,084
Now.
544
00:22:51,526 --> 00:22:53,960
Tara...
545
00:22:53,962 --> 00:22:55,995
I'm sorry.
546
00:22:57,425 --> 00:22:58,791
Did you hear me?
547
00:23:00,835 --> 00:23:03,135
I...
548
00:23:03,137 --> 00:23:05,104
Tara...
549
00:23:05,106 --> 00:23:08,941
It's... I...
550
00:23:08,966 --> 00:23:11,319
I'm sorry for what I did.
551
00:23:16,770 --> 00:23:20,052
I appreciate you saying that...
552
00:23:20,054 --> 00:23:23,022
but it's just not enough.
553
00:23:23,024 --> 00:23:25,257
Uh... no...
554
00:23:25,259 --> 00:23:27,893
I wish I could go back and change it,
555
00:23:27,895 --> 00:23:29,628
but I can't.
556
00:23:29,630 --> 00:23:33,733
I'm so sorry for all that I've done.
557
00:23:33,735 --> 00:23:35,901
No, listen to me.
558
00:23:35,903 --> 00:23:39,238
Killing me won't change the past.
559
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:43,195
No, but it'll change your future.
560
00:23:46,914 --> 00:23:49,215
Oh...
561
00:23:50,685 --> 00:23:53,285
No.
562
00:23:53,287 --> 00:23:55,955
Don't do it, Tara.
563
00:24:54,148 --> 00:24:59,318
Time of death... 2:47 p.m.
564
00:25:10,765 --> 00:25:13,499
That figures.
565
00:25:17,616 --> 00:25:19,504
Matt, when's the last
time you saw your dad?
566
00:25:19,529 --> 00:25:20,511
I'm with him right now.
567
00:25:20,536 --> 00:25:22,350
You sound stressed. You okay?
568
00:25:22,375 --> 00:25:24,949
I'm fine. I just need to
get Sybil the antique bell
569
00:25:24,951 --> 00:25:26,317
that your dad threw off Wickery Bridge.
570
00:25:26,319 --> 00:25:28,552
Wait, slow down, you lost
me after "I'm fine."
571
00:25:28,554 --> 00:25:30,354
When your dad lived in Mystic Falls,
572
00:25:30,356 --> 00:25:32,523
he took our charter
bell to Wickery Bridge,
573
00:25:32,525 --> 00:25:34,292
and then threw it off the railing.
574
00:25:34,294 --> 00:25:35,993
And now Sybil wants it back.
575
00:25:35,995 --> 00:25:38,763
She says it's got sentimental
value, or something.
576
00:25:38,765 --> 00:25:40,865
- Wait, when was this?
- 1992,
577
00:25:40,867 --> 00:25:42,900
according to the head-dive
Sybil did on your dad.
578
00:25:42,902 --> 00:25:44,525
- Yeah, that makes sense.
- Why?
579
00:25:44,549 --> 00:25:47,034
Wickery Bridge is where Elena's
parents drove the car off the road.
580
00:25:47,058 --> 00:25:48,639
When the sheriffs dredged out the car,
581
00:25:48,641 --> 00:25:49,907
they found something else...
582
00:25:49,909 --> 00:25:51,242
The old charter bell.
583
00:25:51,244 --> 00:25:52,977
It was broken, but they saved it.
584
00:25:52,979 --> 00:25:54,812
Well, let's hope they
didn't sell it on eBay.
585
00:25:54,814 --> 00:25:56,347
No, your mom had it in storage.
586
00:25:56,349 --> 00:25:58,129
I only know this because
I cleaned out her office
587
00:25:58,153 --> 00:25:59,016
after the funeral.
588
00:25:59,018 --> 00:26:00,951
All those boxes you
brought over to the house,
589
00:26:00,953 --> 00:26:03,554
- they're still in the garage.
- Take me there. Now.
590
00:26:03,556 --> 00:26:04,755
Caroline, don't do it.
591
00:26:04,757 --> 00:26:05,890
You need to get away from her.
592
00:26:05,892 --> 00:26:07,091
I don't have a choice, Matt.
593
00:26:07,093 --> 00:26:08,392
These kids are gonna kill each other.
594
00:26:08,394 --> 00:26:09,727
What kids? Where are you?
595
00:26:09,729 --> 00:26:11,929
Matt, hey, if you try to stop her
596
00:26:11,931 --> 00:26:13,931
from helping me, I
send a psychic command,
597
00:26:13,933 --> 00:26:15,132
and my students die anyway.
598
00:26:15,134 --> 00:26:16,600
If you come over to her house,
599
00:26:16,602 --> 00:26:17,768
my students will die.
600
00:26:17,770 --> 00:26:19,470
If I find out that anyone
601
00:26:19,472 --> 00:26:21,172
- is trying to interfere...
- Ugh! God, we get it.
602
00:26:22,508 --> 00:26:24,442
You really should have been a teacher.
603
00:26:24,444 --> 00:26:27,144
Hmm. Maybe that'll be my second career,
604
00:26:27,146 --> 00:26:29,146
after you get me that bell.
605
00:26:33,488 --> 00:26:35,986
Hey, maybe you should have
told the sheriff's department
606
00:26:35,988 --> 00:26:37,555
what's really going on.
607
00:26:37,557 --> 00:26:38,789
They know it's urgent.
They'll call as soon
608
00:26:38,791 --> 00:26:40,091
as they hear from the bus company.
609
00:26:40,093 --> 00:26:41,225
Besides, we know Sybil's field trip
610
00:26:41,227 --> 00:26:42,626
was headed near Mystic Falls.
611
00:26:42,628 --> 00:26:43,728
We're going in the right direction.
612
00:26:43,730 --> 00:26:45,629
All because she wants a bell.
613
00:26:45,631 --> 00:26:48,199
I've never heard of anything so insane.
614
00:26:48,201 --> 00:26:50,634
Says the guy who threw
it off the bridge.
615
00:26:50,636 --> 00:26:52,503
I mean, what were you thinking, anyway?
616
00:26:52,505 --> 00:26:54,805
- I was thinking about the parade.
- What?
617
00:26:54,807 --> 00:26:57,375
The Founders Day parade.
618
00:26:57,377 --> 00:26:58,642
You know, the one where
they put the charter bell
619
00:26:58,644 --> 00:27:00,144
on a float, and some rich guy rings it
620
00:27:00,146 --> 00:27:02,446
while two dumbasses stand
on either side of him
621
00:27:02,448 --> 00:27:04,582
wearing moldy Civil War uniforms?
622
00:27:04,584 --> 00:27:06,250
I was one of the
dumbasses in the parade.
623
00:27:06,252 --> 00:27:08,018
Well, at least I was supposed to be.
624
00:27:08,020 --> 00:27:10,621
So you wanted to get
the parade cancelled?
625
00:27:10,623 --> 00:27:13,224
- Classy.
- No, Matt, it's not just that.
626
00:27:13,226 --> 00:27:15,893
Our family made that
bell. The Maxwell family.
627
00:27:15,895 --> 00:27:17,194
The very first family
with a skilled trade
628
00:27:17,196 --> 00:27:18,696
that brought people to this area.
629
00:27:18,698 --> 00:27:20,559
It's because of us that there was ever
630
00:27:20,584 --> 00:27:22,050
even a town at all.
631
00:27:22,973 --> 00:27:24,635
But the people who took over the town,
632
00:27:24,637 --> 00:27:26,337
they had money, lots of it.
633
00:27:26,339 --> 00:27:28,005
They called themselves
the "Founders,"
634
00:27:28,007 --> 00:27:29,373
they made themselves the elite.
635
00:27:29,375 --> 00:27:31,041
And they treated the
Maxwell family like...
636
00:27:31,043 --> 00:27:32,676
like an embarrassment.
637
00:27:32,678 --> 00:27:35,646
And, eventually, we became one.
638
00:27:36,949 --> 00:27:38,833
That bell was a symbol
639
00:27:38,858 --> 00:27:41,996
of everything they took from us.
640
00:27:42,021 --> 00:27:45,389
So the bell met the river.
641
00:27:45,391 --> 00:27:48,225
And I got in my car
and I never looked back
642
00:27:48,227 --> 00:27:51,262
until now.
643
00:27:56,903 --> 00:27:58,469
Sheriff department.
644
00:27:58,471 --> 00:28:00,137
They said only one bus went
out on a field trip today.
645
00:28:00,139 --> 00:28:02,106
There's a GPS link to that address.
646
00:28:02,108 --> 00:28:04,442
Here. Go, go!
647
00:28:13,186 --> 00:28:14,919
Hi.
648
00:28:14,921 --> 00:28:16,587
I just wanted to say good-bye.
649
00:28:16,589 --> 00:28:18,589
I know you tried to help my brother.
650
00:28:18,591 --> 00:28:20,791
- Sorry for your loss.
- Oh, don't be.
651
00:28:20,793 --> 00:28:22,460
Joke's on you.
652
00:28:22,462 --> 00:28:25,763
Okay, I know you must be in shock.
653
00:28:25,765 --> 00:28:26,997
What if I'm not?
654
00:28:26,999 --> 00:28:28,766
What if it was all a game,
655
00:28:28,768 --> 00:28:31,268
and I was just giving
you a morality test?
656
00:28:31,270 --> 00:28:32,636
That would be insane.
657
00:28:32,638 --> 00:28:35,372
And cruel.
658
00:28:35,374 --> 00:28:37,074
Either way, my brother's still dead.
659
00:28:38,478 --> 00:28:39,710
Oh, God.
660
00:28:39,712 --> 00:28:42,079
But he died from natural causes, right?
661
00:28:42,081 --> 00:28:43,681
You called me in after the fact,
662
00:28:43,683 --> 00:28:46,817
so nobody knows what
you did on your own.
663
00:28:46,819 --> 00:28:48,756
You wanted him dead.
664
00:28:49,522 --> 00:28:52,122
- You tricked me.
- No, no, no.
665
00:28:52,124 --> 00:28:53,891
I just wanted to see what you would do
666
00:28:53,893 --> 00:28:55,726
if I gave you the opportunity.
667
00:28:55,728 --> 00:28:58,529
And you lived up to your potential.
668
00:28:58,531 --> 00:29:00,865
Oh, Stefan...
669
00:29:00,867 --> 00:29:02,700
You're... dead.
670
00:29:02,702 --> 00:29:04,435
Technically, you're not wrong.
671
00:29:04,437 --> 00:29:06,971
Thought you'd be sleeping
off a vervain hangover, Damon.
672
00:29:06,973 --> 00:29:08,439
Oh, fortunately, I
got a little pick-me-up
673
00:29:08,441 --> 00:29:11,109
from an orderly that
came to get my body.
674
00:29:12,812 --> 00:29:14,512
Thanks for nothing, by the way.
675
00:29:14,514 --> 00:29:17,948
You were in on it?
676
00:29:17,950 --> 00:29:19,984
Be quiet. Don't try to escape.
677
00:29:19,986 --> 00:29:21,485
You already failed the test.
678
00:29:21,487 --> 00:29:23,721
You really think Cade's
gonna want her, man?
679
00:29:23,723 --> 00:29:25,022
She's not even evil.
680
00:29:25,024 --> 00:29:26,257
She's done evil things.
681
00:29:26,259 --> 00:29:29,326
Maybe she deserves a second chance.
682
00:29:30,930 --> 00:29:33,330
You know, I gotta say,
683
00:29:33,332 --> 00:29:35,374
I'm disappointed.
684
00:29:35,399 --> 00:29:37,411
Well, that's your resting
state, Stefan, so what?
685
00:29:37,436 --> 00:29:39,370
Now, I can see why you were confused.
686
00:29:46,379 --> 00:29:48,546
Missing something?
687
00:29:48,548 --> 00:29:49,947
I found this in your pocket.
688
00:29:49,949 --> 00:29:51,448
You've been carrying it around
689
00:29:51,450 --> 00:29:52,950
for weeks, haven't you?
690
00:29:52,952 --> 00:29:55,886
So what? It's a re-gift from Caroline.
691
00:29:55,888 --> 00:29:57,988
- I forgot I even had it.
- You sure about that?
692
00:29:57,990 --> 00:30:00,157
Ever since we hit the
road, something's been off.
693
00:30:00,159 --> 00:30:01,792
- Yeah, my emotions.
- No, no, no.
694
00:30:01,794 --> 00:30:03,627
Your sense of fun.
695
00:30:03,629 --> 00:30:05,296
Why do you think I picked Tara over here
696
00:30:05,298 --> 00:30:07,264
for our little game, hmm?
697
00:30:07,266 --> 00:30:09,066
She remind you of someone?
698
00:30:09,068 --> 00:30:10,868
Interest in medicine.
699
00:30:10,870 --> 00:30:12,703
Brown eyes, brown hair.
700
00:30:12,705 --> 00:30:14,572
Orphaned by tragedy.
701
00:30:14,574 --> 00:30:16,407
She reminds you of Elena.
702
00:30:16,409 --> 00:30:18,008
And so does this necklace.
703
00:30:18,010 --> 00:30:19,910
It triggers your conscience.
704
00:30:19,912 --> 00:30:21,312
It's holding you back, Damon.
705
00:30:21,314 --> 00:30:23,080
- No, it's not.
- Well...
706
00:30:24,417 --> 00:30:26,483
...if that's true, then...
707
00:30:26,485 --> 00:30:28,586
I think she's ready to meet the boss.
708
00:30:37,889 --> 00:30:40,079
Matt, I figured something out.
709
00:30:40,081 --> 00:30:42,114
- About the sirens?
- No, not exactly.
710
00:30:42,116 --> 00:30:44,783
About their toys. I figured it
out from Dalton's measurements.
711
00:30:44,785 --> 00:30:46,618
The Maxwell heirloom
and the tuning fork,
712
00:30:46,620 --> 00:30:49,088
those things fit together
to make a clapper,
713
00:30:49,090 --> 00:30:51,323
the hammer that swings inside a bell.
714
00:30:51,325 --> 00:30:52,758
So those three missing things,
715
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:54,593
they're all a part of one bell.
716
00:30:54,595 --> 00:30:56,729
When properly assembled,
this bell becomes,
717
00:30:56,731 --> 00:30:59,898
like, a mystical, witchified super-bell.
718
00:30:59,900 --> 00:31:02,401
I mean, it makes you wonder
what happens when you ring it.
719
00:31:02,403 --> 00:31:04,436
If the sound of the tuning
fork hurts the sirens,
720
00:31:04,438 --> 00:31:08,040
imagine that magnified by a thousand.
721
00:31:08,042 --> 00:31:10,642
Oh, wow, that's cool, right?
722
00:31:10,644 --> 00:31:12,978
Matt? Matt, you there?
723
00:31:12,980 --> 00:31:15,147
Yeah, I gotta call you back.
724
00:31:16,650 --> 00:31:19,585
Hey...
725
00:31:19,587 --> 00:31:21,854
Hey, hey, listen. Look...
726
00:31:21,856 --> 00:31:22,955
you need to back away, okay?
727
00:31:22,957 --> 00:31:25,124
Hey. Hey!
728
00:31:25,126 --> 00:31:26,558
She's not gonna listen to you.
729
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,560
None of them will.
Sybil's controlling them.
730
00:31:28,562 --> 00:31:30,729
Help me untie 'em, now.
731
00:31:39,173 --> 00:31:41,573
Not seeing anything bell-shaped.
732
00:31:41,575 --> 00:31:42,574
Looks like you haven't even
733
00:31:42,576 --> 00:31:43,575
bothered to open
734
00:31:43,577 --> 00:31:45,210
half these boxes.
735
00:31:45,212 --> 00:31:48,113
I didn't have the heart to,
736
00:31:48,115 --> 00:31:50,182
but you wouldn't
understand that, would you?
737
00:31:50,184 --> 00:31:51,683
No, I wouldn't.
738
00:31:51,685 --> 00:31:53,585
Never had a garage.
739
00:32:02,722 --> 00:32:04,237
Hang on.
740
00:32:08,102 --> 00:32:09,501
What does it say?
741
00:32:13,321 --> 00:32:14,740
"Hey, sissy.
742
00:32:14,742 --> 00:32:15,941
“Looking for something?
743
00:32:15,943 --> 00:32:17,109
Seline."
744
00:32:19,249 --> 00:32:22,918
Now I know why she kept
organizing my house.
745
00:32:32,963 --> 00:32:36,631
I'm suddenly feeling the need to vent.
746
00:33:11,568 --> 00:33:13,168
Here, go.
747
00:33:14,729 --> 00:33:16,371
Matt, look out!
748
00:33:23,046 --> 00:33:24,412
Go, go, go, go!
749
00:33:35,025 --> 00:33:36,024
It's okay.
750
00:33:36,026 --> 00:33:37,692
You finished your assignment.
751
00:33:39,162 --> 00:33:41,384
Sybil's done with all of you now.
752
00:33:50,407 --> 00:33:52,374
I think I figured it out.
753
00:33:52,376 --> 00:33:54,676
It's not that you're
trying to screw things up.
754
00:33:54,678 --> 00:33:56,645
- Thanks.
- It's more submerged.
755
00:33:56,647 --> 00:33:58,280
It's more subconscious than that.
756
00:33:58,282 --> 00:33:59,848
What are you talking about?
757
00:33:59,850 --> 00:34:02,083
Despite your best efforts,
your humanity keeps
758
00:34:02,085 --> 00:34:03,285
flickering through
759
00:34:03,287 --> 00:34:05,253
because of this...
760
00:34:05,255 --> 00:34:06,888
little reminder.
761
00:34:06,890 --> 00:34:08,690
Reminders cause problems.
762
00:34:08,692 --> 00:34:10,316
I told you it doesn't
mean anything to me.
763
00:34:10,340 --> 00:34:11,259
And I don't believe you.
764
00:34:11,261 --> 00:34:12,727
- Why not?
- You seem troubled.
765
00:34:12,729 --> 00:34:14,095
You're not enjoying our work.
766
00:34:14,097 --> 00:34:16,598
Oh, my God, you are so full of crap.
767
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,067
Fine, then prove me wrong.
768
00:34:19,069 --> 00:34:21,036
Prove that the past is behind us.
769
00:34:21,038 --> 00:34:23,138
Prove to me that you
770
00:34:23,140 --> 00:34:24,939
don't care.
771
00:34:24,941 --> 00:34:26,441
I don't.
772
00:34:33,483 --> 00:34:34,482
Happy?
773
00:34:34,484 --> 00:34:35,483
Almost.
774
00:34:35,485 --> 00:34:38,053
You forgetting something?
775
00:34:43,593 --> 00:34:45,994
Fine.
776
00:34:45,996 --> 00:34:47,829
Fine.
777
00:35:23,661 --> 00:35:25,741
A bus just picked the kids up.
778
00:35:26,564 --> 00:35:28,297
They didn't remember a thing.
779
00:35:28,299 --> 00:35:30,199
I told them there was
a carbon monoxide leak
780
00:35:30,224 --> 00:35:31,944
on their way here and that their old bus
781
00:35:31,969 --> 00:35:33,702
was getting towed.
782
00:35:33,704 --> 00:35:35,804
That's good, very thorough.
783
00:35:37,041 --> 00:35:39,475
Yeah, I know a lot about making excuses.
784
00:35:39,477 --> 00:35:41,477
Matt.
785
00:35:41,479 --> 00:35:43,045
Hey!
786
00:35:43,047 --> 00:35:44,847
Hey, listen, what you, what
you heard from me today,
787
00:35:44,849 --> 00:35:47,750
and over the last few
weeks, those aren't excuses.
788
00:35:47,752 --> 00:35:51,987
They're details about the
worst mistake of my life.
789
00:35:53,731 --> 00:35:56,265
Don't make the same mistake I did, son.
790
00:35:57,261 --> 00:35:59,128
Don't walk away from your family.
791
00:35:59,130 --> 00:36:01,096
You know what? Growing up,
792
00:36:01,098 --> 00:36:02,798
out of all my friends, I
was the only one whose family
793
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,667
didn't have a legacy in Mystic Falls,
794
00:36:04,669 --> 00:36:07,336
so I felt like an
outsider in my own town.
795
00:36:07,338 --> 00:36:10,139
And then I find out our family
has a history, after all.
796
00:36:10,141 --> 00:36:11,473
That could've changed
797
00:36:11,475 --> 00:36:13,342
everything for me...
798
00:36:13,344 --> 00:36:16,011
but you never gave me a
chance to know about it.
799
00:36:39,036 --> 00:36:41,537
Let me guess.
800
00:36:41,539 --> 00:36:43,305
That was Matt telling
you he managed to save
801
00:36:43,307 --> 00:36:45,474
my history students from burning.
802
00:36:45,476 --> 00:36:47,576
Whoa, whoa, whoa, before
you get any of my blood
803
00:36:47,578 --> 00:36:48,844
on those stupid, little,
804
00:36:48,846 --> 00:36:49,845
pointy-toe boots,
805
00:36:49,870 --> 00:36:51,788
you'd better be 1,000% sure
806
00:36:51,813 --> 00:36:53,045
that I'm not still linked
807
00:36:53,070 --> 00:36:54,303
to your children.
808
00:36:55,519 --> 00:36:56,885
What do you mean?
809
00:36:56,887 --> 00:36:57,953
We spent a lot of time together
810
00:36:57,955 --> 00:36:59,221
on that little road trip we took.
811
00:36:59,223 --> 00:37:00,990
It was plenty of time for me to plant
812
00:37:00,992 --> 00:37:02,725
an off switch in their brain
813
00:37:02,727 --> 00:37:05,127
and I can drop them at any second,
814
00:37:05,129 --> 00:37:07,396
so you better not piss me off.
815
00:37:07,398 --> 00:37:08,664
Yeah, you're lying.
816
00:37:08,666 --> 00:37:09,632
Stefan made sure
817
00:37:09,634 --> 00:37:10,666
my kids would be safe.
818
00:37:10,668 --> 00:37:12,201
Are you certain that he thought
819
00:37:12,203 --> 00:37:14,169
of every possible loophole
820
00:37:14,171 --> 00:37:17,139
when he was bargaining his soul away?
821
00:37:17,141 --> 00:37:18,941
I mean, the only way
you'll really find out
822
00:37:18,943 --> 00:37:20,943
is if you try to hurt
me and roll the dice.
823
00:37:20,945 --> 00:37:22,778
Is that what you want to do, Caroline?
824
00:37:22,780 --> 00:37:24,913
You want to gamble with
your children's lives?
825
00:37:24,915 --> 00:37:26,515
Hmm, you know, you seem
826
00:37:26,517 --> 00:37:30,019
so rational when it comes
to your daughters' safety,
827
00:37:30,021 --> 00:37:33,088
except you still plan
on marrying a Ripper.
828
00:37:33,090 --> 00:37:35,591
How do you not see that as
putting their lives in danger?
829
00:37:35,593 --> 00:37:37,026
By the time I marry Stefan,
830
00:37:37,028 --> 00:37:39,528
he will be the man that
I have always loved.
831
00:37:39,530 --> 00:37:41,830
He's gotten through
Ripper sprees before.
832
00:37:41,832 --> 00:37:43,032
Yet every single time,
833
00:37:43,034 --> 00:37:44,867
he manages to find a way to fall off
834
00:37:44,869 --> 00:37:46,035
the wagon...
835
00:37:46,037 --> 00:37:48,904
every... single... time.
836
00:37:48,906 --> 00:37:51,340
Do you know what the
definition of insanity is?
837
00:37:51,342 --> 00:37:53,142
It's doing the same thing
838
00:37:53,144 --> 00:37:56,578
over and over again and
expecting a different result.
839
00:38:04,188 --> 00:38:06,855
I just hope that the
next time he goes Ripper,
840
00:38:06,857 --> 00:38:09,792
your kids aren't in the house.
841
00:38:25,910 --> 00:38:27,743
Psst.
842
00:38:30,448 --> 00:38:32,147
Uh, if you got any questions,
843
00:38:32,149 --> 00:38:34,216
the C.O. can show you our permit.
844
00:38:34,218 --> 00:38:36,061
You find anything valuable around here?
845
00:38:36,086 --> 00:38:38,120
Candy wrappers and fast-food bags.
846
00:38:38,122 --> 00:38:41,457
Well, that doesn't help
my existential crisis.
847
00:38:41,459 --> 00:38:42,524
I was driving through here
848
00:38:42,526 --> 00:38:43,759
last night with my brother.
849
00:38:43,761 --> 00:38:45,360
We got into a heated moment
850
00:38:45,362 --> 00:38:47,062
and threw something out the window.
851
00:38:47,064 --> 00:38:49,264
Maybe he should help
you look for it, then.
852
00:38:49,266 --> 00:38:51,967
Oh, he took the morning off from work.
853
00:38:56,173 --> 00:38:59,441
Besides, he doesn't want
me to have this thing, anyway.
854
00:38:59,443 --> 00:39:02,177
Honestly, I don't even
know why I want it.
855
00:39:02,179 --> 00:39:04,847
'Cause whenever I
have it, I just feel...
856
00:39:04,849 --> 00:39:07,483
...better.
857
00:39:07,485 --> 00:39:08,917
In that case, it sounds like
858
00:39:08,919 --> 00:39:11,420
- your brother's kind of a jerk.
- He can be.
859
00:39:11,422 --> 00:39:12,654
You got any siblings?
860
00:39:12,656 --> 00:39:14,690
Only child.
861
00:39:14,692 --> 00:39:17,459
Lucky you.
862
00:39:17,461 --> 00:39:20,662
Never have to worry about
other people's mistakes.
863
00:39:20,664 --> 00:39:23,198
Your brother's a troublemaker?
864
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:24,633
He's keeping it together.
865
00:39:24,635 --> 00:39:28,170
Relatively speaking.
866
00:39:28,172 --> 00:39:31,073
Which is a good thing...
867
00:39:31,075 --> 00:39:33,242
'cause things are weird right now.
868
00:39:33,244 --> 00:39:35,939
My brother takes a
turn for the worse...
869
00:39:36,781 --> 00:39:38,247
...all bets are off.
870
00:39:39,784 --> 00:39:43,585
Well, well, sometimes
people bounce back.
871
00:39:45,856 --> 00:39:48,023
By doing penance, like you?
872
00:39:49,983 --> 00:39:51,760
One wrapper at a time?
873
00:39:55,982 --> 00:39:57,849
It beats leaving 'em on the ground.
874
00:40:31,268 --> 00:40:33,368
Hey.
875
00:40:39,376 --> 00:40:40,642
In case you're right.
876
00:41:59,434 --> 00:42:04,925
