For over a century, I have lived in secret
Until now. I know the risk.
But I have to know her.
There's a tomb underneath the church.
A spell sealed katherine in that tomb, protecting her.
I'm gonna bring her back.
She's not there!
You saved everyone in the church?
We've taken up residence in a farmhouse just outside of town.
All 25 vampires? Some.
I hate this house. I didn't stay locked up for 145 years
To end up locked up here.
Aah!
Ugh!
So, where's Bethanne?
She won't be coming back.
My wife isabelle spent her life
Researching paranormal activity in this area.
What have you done to my wife? I turned her.
Maybe there is such a thing as vampires.
They're just different from the way we always thought they were.
Aah!
You got a problem with blood, anna?
Ahh!
I knew this girl Vicki.
She was attacked by an animal, a bite to the neck.
And then I saw your face.
Why uld yoyoconfront me about it?
Because maybe it's true about Vicki.
And also because I want you to turn me.
I love storms.
Is that a vampire thing?
'cause I read vampires don't like running water.
It's only Dracula.
Yeah. He was a complete wuss.
Never showered. Very smelly.
Seriously?
First rule about vampires--
Don't believe anything you read.
You gotta tell me more. I gotta know.
No, you don't.
'cause you're not gonna be one.
Come on, you can't keep saying "No" To me.
Look, I'm not gonna turn someone
Who learned everything he knows about vampires from netflix.
That's not true, and you know it.
Why do you even want this?
Give me one good reason.
'cause I...
Hmm. Let me know when you can finish that sentence.
Hey, you're still up.
Hey, what's up?
Looks like the there's a big storm rolling in.
Can you help make sure all the windows are closed?
Yeah. Yeah. Sure.
We're running low on blood.
You might wanna send anna to the hospital to get some more.
I'll send her out for some tomorrow.
Maybe I could w wh?? her.
If the storm keeps it dark enough,
I might be able to go out during the day, no sun and all.
I'm afraid not.
Not after your stunt at the salvatore house tonight.
He and his brother deserved it.
And where did that get you?
Your girlfriend Bethanne is dead.
And you have no one to blame but yourself.
We cannot live our lives about revenge.
We have to have better control of our emotions.
I understand, miss pearl.
I just wish I knew what you were up to.
I'm going to make an exploratory visit into town tomorrow
To assess who's under the influence of vervain and who isn't.
Anna tells me that the players haven't changed much.
It's still the lockwoods, the forbes, the fells--
We should kill every last one of them.
We are smarter than that, Frederick.
These people are not our enemies.
We don't hold grudges and resentments.
We'll get our town back.
We just have to have patience.
You heard her.
No revenge.
Patience.
Self-control.
She seems to have it all figured out, doesn't she?

I say we go to pearl's, bust down the door,
And annihilate the idiot that attacked us last night.
Yeah. And then what?
We turn to the rest of that house of vampires
And say, "Oops. Sorry?"
I can't believe you made a deal with her.
It was more like a helpful exchange of information.
And it was not exactly like I had a choice. She's...
Scary.
Besides, she's gonna help me get katherine back.
Of course she is.
Damon gets what he wants, as usual.
No matter who he hurts in the process.
You don't have to be snarky about it.
I woke up this morning
To learn that all the vampires have been released from the tomb.
I've earned snarky.
How long are you going to blame me
For turning your birth mother into a vampire?
I'm not blaming you, damon.
I've accepted the fact that you're a self-serving psychopath
With no redeeming qualities.
Ouch.
This isn't being very productive.
We're figure out a way to deal with pearl and the vampires. Yeah?
Hmm.
I'm sorry. He just makes me so cranky.
I know. He makes everybody cranky.
So, what are we going to do?
Damon and I are gonna handle everything, I promise.
Well, what about me?
I can't just sit here and do nothing.
That's exactly what you're gonna do,
Because that's what going to keep you safe.
Which means nothing if you're not safe, too.
What do you mean? I'm perfectly safe.
I have damon, the self-serving psychopath on my side.
Well, that's comforting.
Ok. We have some time.
I'm not meeting my mom until later.
Wait. Does your mom know you're a...
The fact that you would even think it's possible
To keep something like that a secret from your own family
Is just further proof that you're not ready.
"Not ready" Is a step up from "No."
And a million steps down from "Maybe."
I like your bracelet.
Thanks. My sister got it for me.
Can I see it?
Yeah. Yeah.
Your sister doesn't know you're hanging out with me, does she?
No. No. But I don't see why it would be a problem.
It's not like she knows what you are.
I'd rather keep it our little secret.
You know, why don't you... why don't you keep this?
Why would you give this to me?
Because. You like it. And I like you.
You only like me because of what you want from me.
No. I...I like you.
Um...
You know, you should wear it.
It looks better on you.
I yelled at my mom last night.
You know, I feel like the parent and the screwed-up kid.
Maybe she needed to hear it.
Yeah, but just... I worry that if I push too hard,
Then she will take off again.
'cause that's her m.O.
Just like Vicki, who I haven't heard from since she left.
Well, you can't control your mom, matt,
Any more than you can control your sister.
I wish that she would just try a little. You know?
If she would just try to try, that'd be ok.
Maybe she'll surprise you.
People have a tendency to do that.
I should go before the roads get even worse from the storm.
Yeah. Are you sure you should be driving right now?
I have to. It's my dad's boyfriend's daughter's birthday.
We have a non-traditional traditional ritual.
Well, buckle up. Don't speed.
Stay off your cell phone.
And call me when you get there.
Got it. Anything else?
Yes.
Bye.
Hunting party?
That guy did a number on me last night when he stabbed me.
I gotta get my strength back up.
I've got 2 liters of soccer mom in the fridge.
No?
We'll talk when I get back?
All right. Give my regards to the squirrels.
Aah!
You're ignoring me
The 6 missed calls? Sorry. My phone is dead.
Is stefan here? No.
Why?
Something wrong?
He went out to the woods and didn't come back.
I can't get him on his phone.
I figured he was here with you.
It's going straight to voicemail.
Where could he be?
You're not going to like what I'm thinking.
Pearl! Open this door.
I swear to god I'll bust through and rip your head off.
Pearl's not home.
Hmm. Beautiful weather.
Not a ray of sun in the sky.
Where's my brother?
Billy.
You're dead. Whoa. I'm sorry.
You haven't been invited in.
Miss gibbons?
Yes, Frederick honey?
Never let this bad man in.
I'll never let him in.
Ugh!
145 years left starving in a tomb,
Thanks to katherine's infatuation with you and your brother.
First few weeks,
Every single nerve in your body screams with fire.
The kind of pain that can drive a person mad.
Well...
I thought your brother might've wanted to get a taste of that
Before I killed him. Billy.
Uhh!
Aah!
You have a nice day.
What happened? Where is he?
They have him. I can't get in.
Why not?
Because the woman that owns the house
Is compelled to not let me in.
I can get in.
You're not going in there.
I'm going! You're not going there.
Why are they doing this? What do they want with him?
Revenge. They want revenge.
We gotta do something.
I know.
We can't let them hurt him. We gotta get him out of there.
I know. Elena, I know.
But I don't know how to get him out.
Vervain on the ropes.
Aah! Unh!
That's gotta sting.
Speaking of...
Aah!
This isn't right!
He killed Bethanne.
One of us, harper.
And don't think for a second
he wouldn't kill you if he had the chance.
Pearl says we're not here for revenge, right?
I say that's exactly what we're here for.
Starting with this.
Aah! Aah!
And then his brother.
And anyone else that gets in our way.
This isn't right!
You're gonna want to let go of me!
Miss pearl will be home soon.
Miss pearl is no longer in charge.
Tie him up! And then stake him.
Well, don't you look... alive?
You can't hurt me.
Oh, I can hurt you, all right.
Mr. Saltzman.
We need your help.
Stefan's in the house.
Damon's a vampire. He can't get in. We need you.
I would go, but--
Your life is valuable.
Yours, on the other hand...
Stefan told me about your ring.
What about it?
Let me recap...
You tried to kill me. I defended myself.
You died.
Then according to my brother,
Your ring brought you back to life.
Am I leaving anything out?
Yeah. The part where I try and kill you again.
Only this time, I don't miss.
Mr. Saltzman. Please.
It's stefan.
I'm sorry, elena. But it's not my problem.
That's a shame.
Because the woman in charge of the crowd
Can help you find your wife.
You're lying. Am I?
Why don't you ask her yourself?
Coward.
Come on, elena.
All right! Wait.
So, I have an answer.
To what?
Why you should turn me.
We're back to that?
Look, I wake up every day, and I feel ok,
But there's something missing.
Like a--like a hole.
Some people, they fit... in life, or whatever.
I... I don't.
So, you want a pity-turn?
I don't think so.
You should turn me because I don't have anything else.
Do you even know why we turn other people?
It's not to give someone a one-way ticket out of loner-hood. Ok?
One--we need someone to do our dirty work.
Two, revenge.
Three, boredom... but, you know, that never turns out well.
And then there's the obviouone.
You love someone so much that you would do anything
To spend all of eternity with them.
Ahem. I'm sorry, but you don't fit any of those categories yet.
So, yeah. Just make sure your thesis is clear,
And she'll love it.
See you later.
Mom, hey. Did you get everything?
The blood-bank was understaffed because of the rain.
I was in and out.
Who's that you were talking to?
A friend from the library.
Let's get home.
Hey, you're not going out in that, are ya?
The roads are dangerous. Route 5 is completely flooded.
We'll make do.
Mayor lockwood, we have your table ready.
Great.
Mayor...lockwood, is it?
I suppose it is treacherous outside.
My name is pearl.
Hi.
This is my daughter anna.
We've just recently moved to town.
Welcome. Richard lockwood. This is my son tyler.
Please--please, join us.
It would be a pleasure.
Be more creepy, dad.
Not like your son is standing right here.
Grow up. Elections are coming.
She's a constituent. And a rich one, from the looks of it.
You can tell all that by looking at her ass?
Awesome. I'm gonna go shoot some pool.
Teacher by day, vampire hunter by night.
I've you to thank for that. What are these?
Those are tranquilizer darts filled with vervain.
Just get me in. I'll get stefan out.
That's your plan? You're just gonna take them all on yourself?
Well, I'll be a little stealthier than that, hopefully.
Whoa. What are you doing?
I'm going with you.
No. No. No. No. No way.
You need me. I'll get in.
You could distract them, and then I'll get stefan out.
You'll get yourself killed. You're not going in there.
I'm going.
So, when you get me in, get out as quickly as you can.
I know how to sneak around where they can't hear me.
You'll basically just be in the way.
Damon, now is not the time to be the lone ranger.
Fine. Elena, you can drive the getaway car.
You're not going in the house.
You can't stop me. It's stefan we're talking about here.
You don't understand.
Oh, I understand. I understand.
He's the reason you live.
His love lifts you up where you belong. I get it.
Can you not joke around for 2 seconds?
I can't protect you, elena.
I don't know how many vampires there are in there.
That's how long it takes you to get your head ripped off.
I have to be able to get in and get out.
I can't be distracted with your safety.
Or this will end up a bloodbath that none of us walk away from...
Including stefan.
I know.
I get it.
I understand.
If we're gonna go, let's go.
Where are you? I can barely hear you.
I was supposed to go to my dad's, but route 5 closed down.
Now I'm detoured on some random backwoods path to hell.
Well, you shouldn't be talking while you're driving.
I know, right?
I need one of those bluetooth thingies.
Look, you're breaking up.
Just turn around and go back the same way you came.
And watch the road. Ok?
Ok.
God.
Ohh.
Oh, good, someone's home.
Uh, could I use your phone?
My--my car broke down a few miles up the road.
This was the first house I saw.
Well, lucky you.
Yeah. Lucky me.
It's no trouble, is it?
Not the slightest.
Great. Whew.
Hey, man, I really appreciate it.
It's rough out there.
Billy, show our visitor where the phone is in the kitchen.
And get me something to drink.
Yeah. Sure thing.
Hey, miss gibbons, this guy wants to use your phone.
Oh, sure, honey. It's right there.
Thanks.
Aah!
What's happening?
I'm really sorry. But you're gonna need to invite
A friend of mine inside.
Oh, I'm sorry. He's not allowed in the house.
I know that. But you gotta make an exception.
Get her out of the house. Now!
Miss gibbons, tell me the truth.
Are you married? No.
Parents, children, anyone else who lives on this property?
No. It's just me.
Good.
You were supposed to compel her.
It doesn't work that... she was human.
And I'm not! So, I don't care.
Now, get out of here. Get rid of the body!
I'm in the process of obtaining some property.
I understand that your
family is the largest property owner in town.
Well, yes we are.
Dating all the way back to the town's original charter.
Youramilily me into a lot of new property in 1864.
You know your history.
It's a passion of mine.
Guy's not even subtle about it.
Who is that?
It's not my mother.
eeeeee
eeeeeeeee
I'm sorry, mayor.
Do you know that boy over there?
That's jeremy gilbert.
You don't say.
Billy, what's the holdup?!
Aah!
Damn it, elena!
Billy, jacob, get back in here!
Are you insane?
Aah!
Jeremy gilbert?
Is that what you've been up to?
He's my friend. What's the big deal?
His family is the reason
I was stuck in a tomb for over a century.
That doesn't mean he'll make the same choices.
I want you to stop seeing him.
I've been on my own for a long time, mother.
I can make my own decisions.
Then stop acting like a child!
As soon as jeremy finds
out what you really are, he will turn on...
He already knows.
What did you just say?
Jeremy knows.
He likes it. And he likes me.
Unh.
Uhh!
Thank you.
For trying to help me.
They just needed somebody to blame.
Someone to punish.
Elena...
You shouldn't be here...
She was supposed to stay in the car.
Unh! No. No. No. Not him.
Whatever. Let's get you down.
Aah!
There's vervain on the ropes.
Elena, pull that.
Unh!
All right, let's go. Clothes on.
Wait. What? Guys, come on.
We have to get out of here.
Uhh! Come on, we gotta go.
The other one.
Uhh!
Oh, my God.
Can you get him in the car?
Yeah. All right, go.
What about you?
You rescue, I'll distract. Go.
Turn that down.
It's too quiet.
Spread out. Now.
You two, back of the house. Go.
Check out both rooms. Cellar, now.
Unh. Can you make it?
Uhh! Unh.
Ohh. You ok?
Yeah.
Come on, we gotta keep going. Come on.
Ugh.
Aah! Ugh!
Aah! Aah!
I'm going after Frederick!
Come on, it's right over here.
Stefan...
Aah!
Ugh!
Uhh...
This is for Bethanne.
Aah!
And this is for the tomb.
Ugh! Unh!
Stefan...
Unh.
Uhh.
Stefan...
No, stefan.
Stefan, Stefan.
Stefan! Stefan!
Hey, mom.
What's going on?
What's it look like?
Honestly, I wouldn't know. I've never seen it before.
Well, sit down. You might wanna order pizza.
I'm out of practice.
Mmm. Mystery casserole. Yum.
Yeah. Some people aren't meant for the kitchen.
What?
Uh, I know it's been rough.
But I'm gonna try. I mean, really try this time.
You just have to bear with me, ok?
Ok.
Ok. Good.
I got it.
That bad, huh?
What happened to you?
Hey, matt.
Hey.
What's going on?
Is your mom home?
All right, give me 10 minutes.
And keep it out of the news until I get there.
Grab your stuff. We gotta go.
Kinda got half a burger left.
They found Vicki donovan.
Are you serious? Where was she?
Storm unearthed the grave off county road.
They just brought her body down to the morgue.
Wait. She's dead?
Come on, we gotta go.
Stefan, please.
Stefan!
Oh, stefan, please get up. Get up, stefan.
Stefan.
Here.
Elena, please run.
No. Please.
Please, stefan. My wrists.
Here. Take my wrist. You need more blood.
Go, elena. Run. Run...
No.
I trust you.
So, what you said to get me to do this, about my wife.
It was a lie, wasn't it?
Yep.
What did you do?
Me?
Your merry little band of vampires
Spent the day torturing my brother.
Trust me. The parties responsible for this will be dealt with.
Our little arrangement
doesn't work unless you learn to contr t the
This wasn't supposed to happen.
Well, it did.
If I had a good side...
Not a way to get on it.
Argh!
Ahh!
Aah!
Stefan!
Argh!
How are you doing?
I'm ok.
The wounds have mostly healed.
Good.
Elena...
Yeah?
What you did today,
Coming to help me...
You could have been killed.
I know.
And what I did, I'm sorry that...
I'm sorry that you had to see it.
I've just never--
You were like this other person.
And it's my fault. I made you--
No. No. No. No.
You didn't make me do anything. You were saving my life.
And I was saving yours.
Everything's gonna be ok.
Hey, jer...
What--what's going on?
Oh, no.
I made you some coffee.
Thanks.
Are you...
Is there anything I can do?
I just, uh...
I need to be alone right now.
Matt...
Oh, man.
That was fun.
Oh, don't look at me like that.
I know you hate me.
Guess what? Everyone hates me.
But you can't deny it.
We were bad-ass.
Uhh.
Happens.
Jer--
Are you ok?
I'm gonna go get some sleep.
What are you doing?
My...my friend Vicki...
She's...
She's dead.
Vicki?
The one you thought was a...
Yep.
Turns out she's been dead all along.
She's the reason you wanted to turn.
You wanted to be with her.
Look, I'm sorry.
