-Hi. -What are you doing here?
How could you even ask that?
I missed you.
Happy birthday.
Wow.
That was beautiful.
Just feeling epic.
Good morning, everyone.
Alrighty.
Let's see.
Soon after the school opened,
she got a most impressive donor.
But that... is the beginning of another story.
Oh, my God. I am so sorry.
There was this one book wedged between the other,
and I pulled and then... kerplunk kaboom.
Mom?
Jeremy?
Picture an emo pixie cut and braces.
What's going on?
Remember when I told you
to make Rebecca prom queen?
No!
Toast. I can make toast.
It's all about the coffee, Aunt Jenna.
Just go... away.
Don't you think that you've made your point?
What point?
Like this one?
Jenna?
Remember when you compelled me to stab myself?
No, no. No, no, no!
Elena. Oh, my God.
How are you?
It's so... good to see you.
How is she? Is she good?
Here you go.
Is there coffee?
Your first day of school and I'm totally unprepared.
Let's go.
It's coming.
Looks like a gentleman's having some problems
with his carriage.
At this rate,
we won't arrive until sundown.
I don't know what's happening to me.
I know, dear.
You're not alone.
Grams.
Phesmatos.
-Incendia movet. -Incendia movet.
Phesmatos incendia moventur.
Phesmatos incendia movet.
Phesmatos incendia moventur.
Phesmatos incendia movet.
Phesmatos incendia moventur.
Phesmatos incendia movet.
Phesmatos incendia moventur
Phesmatos incendia movet.
Phesmatos incendia moventur.
I love you.
I'm gonna be late tonight.
I'm so sorry, Elena...
that I was such a disappointment to you.
Rough day, huh, Damon.
Sorry.
Manners. I'm Kai.
Nice to meet you.
Popcorn?
Bon?
Bonnie?
No, Bonnie!
Bonnie!
You must be Miss Pierce.
Please...
call me Katherine.
Stefan.
Please.
Burn in hell.
Who are you?
Oh, my...
My sweet boy.
There's still time.
Tell me...
Tell me what you wanna say.
Tell me.
Hey.
This room's off limits.
Look, under normal circumstances,
I'd probably try to warm up to you,
be your friend, or something,
but I'm, kind of, under a time crunch,
and I need your help.
Am I supposed to know you?
Don't waste it.
Thank you for staying so late.
Did you get the Gilbert watch?
She claims it's packed away in her parents' things.
I can get it.
Good. We're gonna need it.
I have an idea what I wanna say,
I just...
I guess, I want it to be perfect too.
You're a good mom.
-I hope so. -Elena.
Elena.
Wow. Elena Gilbert.
Get up, you lush. Come on.
[speaking incantation]
-Thanks, Vick. -Do you need another refill?
I'd love one.
Please tell me you're not hooking up with my sister.
I remain the sheriff.
The even gave me a bench.
I'm thinking of running for mayor.
And Vicki...
Well, I think she found peace.
Somehow it feels like she did.
Hello?
Atticus.
Caitlin.
Caitlin!
Caitlin?
She's ready.
Let's get on with it.
Help me.
Bygones.
Yvette?
Alexandria.
I'm here.
Alexandria.
Where are you?
Yvette.
No.
Alexandria.
What have you done to my sister?
We cannot allow the devil to walk the Earth.
Ethan, if your friend will not free us,
then you must kill her.
No.
OK, you two, go get your swimsuits.
There is one way you can escape the eternal fire.
Mr Saltzman.
What are you doing up? You should be resting.
Well, I'm more of a "walk it off" kind of guy.
I see this every day.
Sometimes I think the denial's the worst part
for people like us.
Because we know the truth.
We can see they're on a collision course with it
and...
All we can do is brace ourselves for impact.
It was good to see you.
Thank you so much for coming.
-Hi. Nice to see you. -Thank you. Appreciate it.
-Hi. -Hi. Nice to see you.
What are you doing here?
I'm a vampire.
What's your excuse?
No, really.
The vervain didn't affect you.
You're not a vampire.
What the hell are you?
Mayor Lockwood.
Klaus, please.
Don't hurt him.
He's my son.
He's all I have.
And you're all he has.
There's a beautiful symmetry to that, don't you think?
-Elena. -Uncle John. Hi.
-Jenna. -John, you made it.
-No. No more drugs! -Hello, fingers.
Goodbye, fingers.
Hey, Vick.
I knew I'd find you here with the crackheads.
Damon Salvatore is dead and if you ask me,
good riddance.
I'm sorry, Tyler.
That is not how this place works.
Hey.
Hey, Pete Wentz called. He wants his nail polish back.
Pete Wentz, huh? How old-school TRL of you.
Carson Daly fan?
Ty? Be nice.
Be nice.
That's Elena's little brother.
I am not gonna stop ringing this bell.
We don't need you to stop.
So then what are you doing here?
Dear diary,
I'm in hell.
It's hard to imagine a place worse
than where I've come from,
but by some spectacular miracle, I found it.
I know you don't always believe this, but...
you deserve to be happy, Stefan.
Please be happy.
You too.
Welcome.
Dr Whitmore never gets tired
of watching us vampires heal.
But he gives us one glass of blood per day.
Just enough to keep us alive.
Pick yourself up, soldier.
Passport.
Passport, night stand.
So, Grams is telling me I'm psychic.
Our ancestors were from Salem.
Witches and all that... I know.
Crazy. But she's going on and on about it.
And I'm, like, put this woman in a home already.
I'm determined to keep my promise to Enzo.
I'm gonna live this life to the fullest.
I wanna see the world,
enjoy my life...
Do I have everything?
For over a century, I have lived in secret...
hiding in the shadows,
alone in the world.
Until now.
Damon.
Hello, brother.
Dear diary.
Today will be different.
It has to be.
I will smile,
and it will be believable.
That is the promise of peace,
that one day, after a long life,
we find each other again.
