Yeah, we have a plan. Plan is I'm going to rip Connor's heart out and feed it to him.
That's not a plan. We need to be careful. Connor has Jeremy and who knows how many other hostages.
Hence the open heart surgery.
ElenaDamon's right. Connor's strong but he's not going to be able to take all of us.
I called in the hybrids to help, too.
My mom put squad cars blocking the streets. They're saying it's a faulty gas main. We're good to go.
Good. Great. No cops, no witnesses, no reason to wait around.
Alright, hold on. We're not all going.
He shot me like nine times. If we're going to kill him, I want in.
Elena
He's got Jeremy, I'm going.
Listen, nobody is going anywhere until I figure out what we're walking into.
Until you figure it out? Is that where you've been all morning? Buying bossypants?
Elena
(about the visions from killing a hunter) You went through this?
Yes, I did. For fifty-two years, four months, and nine days. I was tormented, in my dreams, my every waking moment, relentless, never ending torture. It was the only period of my life when I actually felt time.
Elena
So, you knew that this would happen if Connor died? That's why you got involved. Did Stefan know too?
All he knew was that the hunter had to be kept alive. You should have listened to him when he said he had it covered, love.
[Jeremy is sitting on a chair, pushing the white oak stake into the palm of his hand when Elena comes in, causing him to look up at her and pull out the stake from his hand.]
Elena
[To Jeremy] Hey, where have you been? [Notices her brother holding the stake] What are you doing with that?
[Jeremy stands up.]
Elena
Put it down.
Connor was right. All I can think about is killing vampires.
Elena
You're nothing like Connor.
I want to believe that. And I know I don't wanna hurt you, but everything inside of me is telling me to drive this stake through your heart.
Elena
Why would you say that? It's me, Jeremy.
Elena
Yeah, but I'm also your sister. Jer– [Takes Jeremy's wrist] I would never do anything to hurt you.
[Elena and Jeremy stare at each other, then Elena looks down at her brother's hand, prompting her to turn it over and see the blood on it, causing veins to start crawling towards her eyes.]
[Seeing veins crawling towards his sister's eyes] [Fearfully] No.
[As Elena looks up at Jeremy, the veins go away.]
Elena
G-get it away from me.
[Elena turns around, about to leave. Jeremy starts towards his sister, getting ready to stake her. Elena grabs his wrist and throws him down. Horrified, Elena kneels down next to her brother and starts to shake him, trying to wake him up.]
Elena
Jer. Jer, hey. Jer, wake up. Jer, please wake up!
[Jeremy opens his eyes and plunges the arm cuff stake into his sister's neck. Elena gasps and clutches her neck. Jeremy stands up, crouches down in front of her, and raises the stake.]
[Enters] [Horrified] [To Jeremy] Jeremy!
Jeremy, you don't want to do this, okay? That's your sister. It's that stupid mark on your arm.
[Ferociously and savagely] SHUT UP, MATT!
Jeremy, look at me! I'm human, and I'm telling you not to hurt her.
[Jeremy hesitates for a moment, but looks as if he's still going to stake his sister. Stefan rushes in, grabbing Jeremy and pinning him against the wall.]
[To Matt] Get him out of here, Matt! [Pushes Jeremy towards Matt]
[To Jeremy] Come on, let's get out of here.
[As Matt takes Jeremy away, Stefan kneels down in front of Elena, who is trying to pull out the stake from her neck.]
[To Elena] Let me do it, let me do it, let me do it.
[Stefan pulls out the stake from Elena's neck.]
Elena
Hey.
Elena
How was your night?
Elena
Same.
Elena,um, we need to talk.
Elena
I know that I am sired to you, Damon. Caroline told me. That's what you and Stefan were doing, isn't it? Is there a way to break it?
Not exactly. Which is why we need to talk.
Elena
Tyler told me the bond doesn't affect how I feel, just a way I act. My feelings for you haven't changed. Nothing is changed.
Everything is changed, Elena.
Elena
Ok. Fine. I've changed. So have you, Damon. And I'm happy. Just like you were yesterday morning before we knew about any of this.
You know what would make me happy? To know that this entire time that I've been completely in love with you that what you actually felt for me was real.
Elena
It is real. I know that it is, Damon. I know what you're about to do. Please, don't do this to me.
I don't wanna do this , Elena. I'm not the good guy, remember? I'm the selfish one. I take what I want. I do what I want. I lie to my brother, I fall in love with his girl, I don't do the right thing...but I have to do right thing by you.
Elena
[Takes his hand and presses it to her heart] Does this feel wrong? [Places her hand on his cheek and caresses him face] Does this feel wrong?
