Your body heals others, your body heals itself. You'll regenerate parts of internal organs after I remove them.
Listen. How I got this amazing body has nothing to do with science, so running-- (Dr Whitmore stabs a knife into his eye) aah!
What the hell happened to you?
Ditto. Elena's not here by any chance, is she?
I haven't seen her, not that I've been looking.
Stefan, you awake?
You know, he hasn't seen her either. I know because we were together ... All night.
Look, I've had a really crappy couple of days, ok? If you're implying what I think you're implying--
Why? What were you thinking? That our hot, naked bodies collided in one unforgettable night of passion?
I'm gonna barf.
Great. Then my work here is done. Too-do-loo.
Where the hell have you been?
Aw, you know, being held against my will, shot in the head, and now I can't find Elena. How was your evening? Anything out of the ordinary happen?
Wait a minute. What do you mean you can't find Elena?
I mean, she's not picking up her phone, she's not in her dorm, she's nowhere in this house, which leads me to believe that Dr. Creepy Ken doll has her somewhere.
Are you talking about the Whitmore bio teacher?
Yeah, the one that operates on vampires during business hours, yeah, that one. Put your hero hair on, Stefan. Let's go get Elena.
You just said you don't know where she is.
I don't, which means we're gonna have to find us some leverage. So come on.
Pop quiz. So your girlfriend's taken by a mad scientist. Now do you: a) get a new girlfriend; b) call the police; or c) kill someone close to that mad scientist.
A hundred pages of horrific torture, and you find the one happy passage.
I'm not defending you. I'm not defending your decision to kill Aaron's entire family, to go out of the town and kill his aunt while we are so together.
So why are you still here? I'm bad Elena. I'm bad for you! So why wouldn't have you run away from me as far as humanly possibile?
'Cause I love you, Damon. Because I chose you and I stand by my choice.
Now I'm choosing. And I'm choosing to let you go.
What?! No, Damon.
I'm choosing to not to think about you must feel every time some ghost from my past comes in our lives. I'm choosing to relieve you of having to defend me for every awful thing I've ever done.
Stop acting like I'm perfect! Damon, I've done horrible things too. You think I wanna stand here and judging you after you've tortured for 5 years?
Stop defending me! I won't change who I am. I can't. But I refuse to change you.
So that's it? You're just giving up?
As she should! I mean, he did say-- and I quote-- "I am a bad person. I am bad for you and I am choosing to let you go."
You memorized my breakup?
Of course I did.
It's Stefan.
Tell him I don't feel like talking.
She doesn't feel like talking.
(to Stefan) She doesn't feel like talking.
Rule number one, think of the worst thing Katherine Pierce has ever done to you. Rule number two, toast to the glory of her impending death. Rule number three, if you come across something that's worse-- which you will-- repeat rules one and two. She pretended to be buried in a tomb for 145 years while I waited for her lying ass. (Damon drinks) Wait. Does that beat pretended to be Elena and kissing me on the front porch of your old house?
I don't think so.
I don't think so either, damn. Quarterback, go.
Uh....
Think on that. Little Gilbert.
She fed me to Silas, and I died.
Doozy.
Then she made me crash my car into a pole and left me for dead. Again.
Doubly doozy. Drink.
My sister's dead because of her.
Yes, she is because I wouldn't have even been in town to turn Vicki into a murderous vampire if I wasn't trying to get Katherine out of the tomb she wasn't in. Group shot.
Seriously?
Elena, we were just, uh--
I know what you're doing. (to Jeremy) You're cut off. If anyone is drinking to Katherine's last days, it's gonna be me. She impersonated me repeatedly... Made Aunt Jenna stab herself in the stomach and cut off Uncle John's fingers.
He might have deserved that.
My Grams died trying to close a tomb. She wasn't in.
Tyler's werewolf curse got triggered because of her.
Klaus followed her to Mystic Falls, and because of that, we lost Jenna.
And Alaric.
We're gonna need more booze.
She tried to kill me at least twice.
She did kill me, although I'm weirdly better off.
Rumor has it she burnt down the entire city of Atlanta once.
That might win.
All right. Knock it off or take it somewhere else. You guys are being insensitive.
Come on, Stefan. Don't let the sight of a frail, human, Elena look-alike cloud your memories of the manipulative psycho that she is.
In 1864, Katherine moved into my home, she compelled me to love her, seduced my brother, fed us full of vampire blood, and then started a war with the town that got us killed.
Exactly. Bottoms up.
But centuries before that, she was just an innocent girl who was shunned by her family, so for 500 years, she lied and manipulated and did whatever she had to do survive, and she did. She's a survivor, right. So that's the girl that I will drink to today. Cheers.
Please. One night of hot sex with her, and your brainwashed?
What?!
What?!
Oh, my-- I forgot to tell you. You were kidnapped and hostages and--
Bottle's empty actually.
That's why you never send a busboy to do a man's job. Nadia, the devil's spawn. Hey, Caroline. Did you remember to tell Elena that?
I think my mind just exploded.
You're not even the least bit curious as to why I'm here?
I literally just whooshed at the sight of your face, so no.
Damon informed me that Katerina Petrova has taken a tragic turn.
So you're here to gloat over her corpse to be, to delight in the closure of 500 years of revenge! Great! Now I'm even less interested.
Hello, fingers. Goodbye, fingers.
Guess it's a good thin I'm not claustrophobic anymore.
That's what Katherine helped you with-- Silas aftermath.
She did.
Can I just hate her anyway?
You can.
Thank you.
But I don't. I know I should, but for some reason, I keep rooting for her to find peace. Katherine's not the only one, you know? Damon keeps pushing you away because he hates himself, who he is, what's he done. Just remember that you never gave up on me, so don't give up on him. Don't let him give up on you either, ok?
So the quarterback has been saved. What now?
Don't you have a dying girl to go punish for all of her sins?
I do, but I won't for you.
So you came all the way to Mystic Falls just to back off when I ask you to?
No. I came all the way to Mystic Falls to gloat over a corpse to be, as you so poetically put it, but I will leave minus the gloating in return for one small thing.
And what is that?
I want your confession.
My confession? I didn't do anything. Confession about what?
Me. As soon as we're done here, I'm gonna walk away, and I'm never coming back. You'll never again have to look me in the eye and cover our connection with hostility and revulsion. You'll never have to loathe the darkest parts of yourself that care fore in spite of all I've done. I will be gone, and you will be free. I just... Want you to be honest with me.
I'm in college. I'm building a life for myself. I have plans and a future and things that I want, and none of those things involve you, ok, none of them.
I see.
No, you don't because, yes, I cover our connection with hostility because, yes, I hate myself for the truth, so if you promise to walk away like you said an never come back, then, yes, I will be honest with you. I will be honest with you about what I want.
I will walk away, and I'll never come back, I promise.
(steps closer) Good. (kisses Klaus)
You know, I was in a dark place, Damon.
And Katherine pulled you out of it. Irony abounds.
You know, whatever is going on with you and Elena, you need to fix it. She's the best thing that ever happen to you.
You think I don't know that? I can't live without her... But when you think about it, I'm no better than Katherine. Elena will be happier without me. What, I'm being selfless? Don't give me that look.
I'm not giving you a look.
Katherine fricking Pierce has a selfless moment, I'm not allowed to? Fine. Fine. When I get Elena back and the whole universe freaks out because the fated Doppelgängers are torn apart, just remember you-- you're the one that pep talked me out of doing the right thing for the universe and all mankind.
I will keep that in mind.
You do that.
