Tyler Lockwood quotes from The Vampire Diaries

Alaric

What if he asked you to... jump off a bridge?

Tyler

He wouldn't. And even if he did, I'd be fine. I'm a hybrid.

Elena

OK, so what if he asked you to rip your own heart out?

Tyler

Again, he wouldn't.

Elena

What if he did?

Tyler

I don't know - then I'd rip out my heart!

Caroline

(entering and sees Tyler) What are you doing here?

Tyler

I came to apologize.

Caroline

(disbelieving) Apologize?! You bit me. I could've died. I think we're way past apologies, Tyler.

Tyler

That's the problem. Klaus told me to do it and I said no. And then... just happened anyway. Like, it was completely out of my control. That's why I had your mom call him.

Caroline

Right now, Damon is desperate to figure out which Original created our vampire blood-line. And if he finds out it wasn't Klaus, they're all going to kill him.

Tyler

But Klaus turned me. So if he dies, I die.

Caroline

I know that, they know that. The difference is, Damon doesn't care.

Klaus

Where have you been, mate?

Tyler

I just got back in town.

Klaus

That's funny. I don't recall giving you permission to leave in the first place.

Tyler

Klaus could get killed. And I die along with him.

Stefan

No one's gonna die, ok?

Klaus

So much for that sire bond.

Tyler

I'm not you're little bitch anymore.

Caroline

This is wrong. A bunch of people just died and we're having sex.

Tyler

Grief sex. It's healthy.

Tyler

Haley?

Hey, Lockwolf.

Caroline

I ditched Rebekah's ditching party. (Kisses Tyler, then notices Klaus's bodyguards for Tyler) What's with all the testosterone?

Tyler

Hybrids. I'm on house arrest.

Caroline

Says who? Your mom? Come on, let's sneak out.

Tyler

Ah, not my mom, Caroline...

Caroline

You're kidding me. Klaus?

Klaus

She's quite fetching that Haley.

Tyler

Where is she?

Klaus

Oh, she had to run, but don't worry I had her take the back door so Caroline wouldn't see.

Tyler

Whatever you think you know--

Klaus

I don't know anything. But I've put together a pretty convincing picture. Why don't you tell me where my imagination deviates from the reality. You went off to the Appalachians to break my sire bond. There you met a pack of werewolves, begged them for help. And among them was a girl. She was gorgeous. With the same animal instincts as you. Emotions ran high, inhibitions ran low--

Tyler

Stop it.

Klaus

Then, in a moment of weakness, the thick sexual tension became something much more real.

Tyler

I said stop!

Klaus

And Caroline has no idea.

Damon

Where have you been?

Stefan

Coming up with a plan.

Damon

Yeah, we have a plan. Plan is I'm going to rip Connor's heart out and feed it to him.

Stefan

That's not a plan. We need to be careful. Connor has Jeremy and who knows how many other hostages.

Damon

Hence the open heart surgery.

Elena

Damon's right. Connor's strong but he's not going to be able to take all of us.

Tyler

I called in the hybrids to help, too.

Caroline

My mom put squad cars blocking the streets. They're saying it's a faulty gas main. We're good to go.

Damon

Good. Great. No cops, no witnesses, no reason to wait around.

Stefan

Alright, hold on. We're not all going.

Tyler

He shot me like nine times. If we're going to kill him, I want in.

Elena

He's got Jeremy, I'm going.

Stefan

Listen, nobody is going anywhere until I figure out what we're walking into.

Damon

Until you figure it out? Is that where you've been all morning? Buying bossypants?

Caroline

Oh, I apologize. Am I intruding?

Tyler

Caroline, it's not like that.

Caroline

I keep waiting for you to make up some dumb story so at least I can call you a liar. Is that now?

I'll let you two talk.

Caroline

Thank you. How big of you.

Tyler

You have to understand--

Caroline

You don't tell me what I have to do. I went through hell when I thought you died. I cried like an idiot and this whole time you've been keeping a secret from me about falling for some werewolf in the Appalachians.

Tyler

I never fell for her.

Caroline

Oh, please.

Tyler

Caroline, she saved my life. I almost died trying to break the sire bond. Haley was there for me, she helped me get through it. But nothing else happened.

Caroline

Then why would Klaus think that?

Tyler

Because I'd rather him think that then know the truth. There are other hybrids that need to be set free. Haley and I can help them. But if Klaus found out about what we're trying to do... he'd kill us all.

I can't believe that I won. I just want to thank the judges for seeing past the fact that I'm a raging bitch.

Tyler

You don't want to do that. Those girls will cut you. They have nails.

I have claws.

Tyler

[To Klaus] [Snarky] Morning, sunshine. You look pathetic.

Klaus

Only until Bonnie's spell locking me in here wears off. Then I'll look different. Angrier, perhaps. Or I won't look like anything, 'cause I'll have gouged your eyeballs from their sockets.

Tyler

My friends will be back with the cure by then, so I could shove it down your throat and make you mortal.

Klaus

I'm an Original. What makes you think my entire vampire bloodline won't be cured along with me? I.e., you.

Tyler

You know what I think? I think that's impossible. I think the moment you stop being a vampire, our whole blood connection to you is broken, and your sire-line ceases to exist. So whatever happens to you happens only to you, which means I can kill your ass and no one else has to die. Although I am still debating just how to do it.

Klaus

[Vamp-speeds in front of Tyler] I recommend drowning. There's nothing quite like the feeling of someone fighting for something as basic as human breath. And let me tell you, your mother was a fighter.

Caroline

[Sees Tyler taking a cup from the top cabinet] [To Tyler] You're still here? What are you doing?

Tyler

Gloating. [Pours himself a drink]

Klaus

[Approaches Caroline and Tyler] [To Caroline] Hello, Caroline.

Caroline

[Looks at Klaus and then turns to Tyler] [To Tyler] Come home. Don't stoop to his level.

Tyler

[To Caroline] He destroyed my life. I plan on being present for every second of his misery until I can kill him myself. [Sips from his drink]

Caroline

Fine. You can gloat and multitask. This place is a disaster. Starting with a horrific burnt corpse. [Opens the door of the lower cabinet, pulls out a table cloth, and closes the door of the lower cabinet]

Klaus

[To Caroline] Tyler's mother is dead. So is my brother. We're even. Call Bonnie and get her to let me out of here.

Caroline

I will never, ever, help you.

Klaus

How quickly you forget the part where I saved Tyler from the misery of being a werewolf. Or the night your mother invited me into her home to save the life of her precious daughter.

Caroline

How delusional are you? You killed his mother. And let's not forget that we're standing in a house where Elena's aunt Jenna used to live. Or did you think that your charm would make us forget how you killed her, too? You know what? No, I am not going to engage in this. You are not even worth the calories I burn talking to you.

Tyler

[Horrified] NO!

Klaus

[Turns to Tyler] [To Tyler] Now, that was definitely worth the calories.
