RebekahSo, vampire Elena is a trollop who likes bad boys, which explains why Stefan reeks of alcohol. But what it doesn't explain is why sweet, loving, innocent Elena could be so heartless towards Stefan. How could she hurt you like that? Answer, please.
She didn't know it at the time, but she was sired to Damon.
Rebekah
A sire bond. Fascinating. And what do you think about that, Elena.
I think you're sad...and bored...and in desperate need of a hobby.
Rebekah
You're hiding something. 'Fess up.
I didn't sleep with Damon because of the sire bond. I slept with Damon because I'm in love with him.
[Everyone at the table, including Elena, looks surprised at what she just said]
What does any of this have to do with the stupid cure?
Rebekah
You're right. We got off point. Stefan, how do I find the cure? Unless you'd rather talk about Damon and Elena all day.
There's a professor. He knows where the cure is.
Rebekah
Thank you. And, uh, where do I find this professor?
Rebekah
Still glued to your seats? Ooh, it's thick with tension in here. Let's spice things up a bit. Elena, Truth or Dare?
We're done playing your stupid games, Rebekah.
Rebekah
Truth or Dare, Elena? You're compelled. Answer.
Rebekah
I dare you to tell Stefan the truth about Damon.
Being with Damon makes me happy.
Rebekah
Makes you happy? [scoffs] Clowns make you happy, Elena. Dig a little deeper.
When I'm with him...it feels unpredictable like...like I'm free.
Rebekah
And how do you feel when you're with Stefan?
Rebekah
[glibly] She can't. She's compelled.
Lately, I feel like I'm a project, like I'm a problem that needs to be fixed. [Stefan looks at her] I think I make him sad, and I can't be with someone like that because...when he looks at me, all he sees is a broken toy. [Rebekah smiles smugly at Stefan until he looks away. She then turns back to Elena and leans in]
Rebekah
Do you still love Stefan?
Rebekah
Are you still in love with Stefan?
Rebekah
[Stands and turns to Stefan]Did that hurt, having someone you love drive a dagger through your heart?
Rebekah
[Angrily moves next to Stefan's chair and squats down to get closer to him] Did...that...hurt?
Rebekah
Welcome to the last 900 years of my life.
Rebekah
(answering Stefan's phone) Hello, Elena.
What did you do to Stefan?
Rebekah
Rescued him from his old, dull life. But it keeps calling. Stefan's not in the mood to talk right now.
Then he can listen. I know you might not care about me right now, Stefan, but Kol compelled Damon to kill Jeremy. They're somewhere in the tunnels, and I-- it's one giant maze down here, and I can't find them, so if you still care about the cure, or about Jeremy, then maybe you can come help. (silence) Ok.
Is anyone else a little creeped out?
Rebekah
So, then leave. Out of everyone, your presence is the least necessary.
Rebekah
I'm merely stating the facts. Jeremy has the spell on his body. Bonnie's the witch that unseals the cure. Shane is the human compass. You and I have the tombstone, which does God knows what. And Elena has no point.
Rebekah
You have a nice behind.
You mean what you said? About a cease-fire?
Rebekah
Why do you all assume that I hate Elena so much?
Well, I mean, you did run her off a bridge.
Rebekah
You all seem to forget that Elena's death was the only way to save my family. I did the same thing that every one of you would've done to protect the people that you love. And before you cast me as the bad guy, maybe you should remember that Elena's helped to kill not one but two of my brothers. Maybe we're not as different as everyone's making us out to be.
I didn't take it [the tombstone], but here. (Holds out the white oak dagger) Consider this a peace offering.
Rebekah
Don't you get it, Elena? There is no peace. We're all screwed.
Exactly, Rebekah. We're screwed. Bonnie's gone. Shane's got the tombstone. Jeremy's missing. Who knows if Damon is coming back. So, us three right here, this is all we've got. So, we're either in this together... or it's over. For all of us.
[Rebekah reluctantly takes the white oak dagger.]
[On the island.]
[Over Elena's phone] [To Elena] Tell me you're not serious.
[On her phone] I wish I weren't.
[In the Gilbert house.]
[Over Caroline's phone] When we got back from looking for Jeremy, Shane and Bonnie were gone, too.
[On the island.]
[On her phone] Shane needs Bonnie to cast a spell on Jeremy's tattoo in order to find the cure, and he managed to sneak them both out from under our noses.
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On her phone] Well, where's Damon in all this?
[Over Caroline's phone] We had an argument.
[On the island.]
I thought he was just taking a walk, but then when we went to the beach–
[In the Gilbert house.]
[Over Caroline's phone] –we saw signs of a struggle.
[On her phone] Meaning what?
[On the island.]
[On her phone] Meaning somebody probably jumped him and then grabbed him.
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On her phone] Do you think Shane took him?
[On the island.]
[On her phone] No, I mean, he's not strong enough to take Damon on, even with the element of surprise. He must have someone, or at least a few someones helping him.
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On her phone] I'm so sorry. I wish I was there to help.
[Over Caroline's phone] Well, maybe there's something you can do from home.
[On her phone] Anything. Tell me.
[On the island.]
[On her phone] So Shane's looking for the cure. We think we can find him. We have pictures of Jeremy's tattoo, but we just can't translate the map.
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On her phone] Unless you get the Hunter's Sword from Klaus.
[Over Caroline's phone] Exactly.
[On the island.]
Rebekah
[To Stefan] He'll never give up the sword.
Yeah, but if anyone's gonna get him to give it up, it's Caroline.
Rebekah
He will never give up the sword, not even for Caroline. He's terrified we'll use the cure against him to make him mortal, and even if he wasn't, he wouldn't want any of us to derive a moment's worth of happiness from being human.
Well, maybe he doesn't have to give it up. I mean, Klaus is stuck in Elena's house by Bonnie's spell. He can't go anywhere. There's only so many places you can hide a three-foot piece of metal.
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On her phone] [To Elena] I'll find it, don't worry. Just e-mail me photos of Jeremy's tattoo. I'll find the sword, and I'll call you back.
[On the island.]
[On her phone] Thank you, Caroline.
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On her phone] Bye. [Hangs up and picks up her jacket]
[To Caroline] Need my help with anything, love?
[Caroline leaves the house, with Klaus watching on.]
[On the island.]
Rebekah
[Gets a call from Caroline] [To Caroline] Hello?
[Over Rebekah's phone] Hey, it's Caroline. We have the translation of the tattoo.
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On her phone] We're emailing you pictures of the map and instructions right now.
[Tyler sends Rebekah an email.]
[On the island.]
Rebekah
[Gets an email on her phone] Got it. Thanks.
[Over Rebekah's phone] [To his sister] Actually, it was me.
[In the Gilbert house.]
Rebekah
[Over Caroline's phone] Nik, you helped?
[On Caroline's phone] You sound so surprised, little sister.
[On the island.]
Rebekah
[On her phone] Shouldn't I be? I mean, you don't want me to be human. You don't want any of us to be human. Why would you help us find the cure?
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On Caroline's phone] Maybe I finally realized the longer I stand in the way of what you want, the longer you'll continue to hate me. Perhaps I want my sister to finally know happiness.
[On the island.]
Rebekah
[On her phone] Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me a hundred times–
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On Caroline's phone] No more fooling. No more games. I hope you get to live, and die, as you wish.
[On the island.]
Rebekah
[On her phone] So do I.
[In the Gilbert house.]
[On Caroline's phone] There is one more thing, Rebekah. There is only one dose of the cure. You need to find it first and take it. It's the only way you'll–
[Tyler hangs up on Rebekah. Klaus shrugs. Caroline turns to Tyler.]
[On the island.]
Rebekah
Nik. Nik!
Rebekah
You're alive?
Rebekah
Why didn't you go with them?
Rebekah
You gave up, didn't you?
I didn't give up. I just realized... you can't control everything... no matter how hard you try. Let's just say that I made peace with that fact.
Rebekah
Peace? You love Elena. You always will. If she becomes human, she may not feel the same way about you. You'll never know peace.
Rebekah
You did something selfless, Damon. If I didn't know better, I'd say you were becoming a halfway decent person.
Here's the thing. I was completely willing to accept the fact that you were one man on a lonely mission to kill ol' Silas, and then I got boned by my vixen nemesis miss Katherine Pierce, and then I start thinking there's no way that this is a coincidence. So what do you know, huh? (to Rebekah) Took you long enough.
Rebekah
Sorry. I had to dig the arrow out of my spine. Thank you for that.
Well, if you want a lead on Katherine Pierce, here's your guy.
Torture me all you want. You can't kill me. The Hunter's curse will torment you forever.
Rebekah
He's right. You can't kill him, but that doesn't mean we can't tear him apart piece by piece, nerve by nerve until the pain is so severe, that your brain shuts it off to give you one tiny moment of blessed relief, and then we'll heal you and do it again and again and again.
Rebekah
Thank you.
I was tracking dens of vampires across Colorado. Katherine found me, said she could help me find Silas. She already knew about the Hunter's mark, the cure.
Rebekah
How?
Oh, she has someone on the inside, some werewolf girl, friends with your professor.
Hayley, Tyler Lockwood's old friend. Ah, I knew she was shady. Where'd Katherine find her.
New Orleans. That's all I know.
Ah. Good. Let's throw him in a well. If he starves to death, it's not our fault. I'm going to find Bonnie.
Rebekah
We've got a lead on the cure, Damon. I'm going to find it, but I suppose you don't mind. You never wanted Elena to be human again, anyway.
I wanted the cure for her because it's what she wanted. You might think I'm afraid to go back, but I'm not because I know what she needs. She needs me to bring her best friend home.
Rebekah
Wow, she [Lexi] sounds dreadful.
She had a Mother Teresa complex.
So let me guess. After many dark nights with Lexi, she convinced you to turn your emotions back on, and that's exactly what you plan to do with me. Hmm.
You read the last page of a book first, too?

You read the last page of the book first, too? I'm gonna go get a drink. Many drinks. (goes to the bar)
Rebekah
So you really buy all this?
Not one bit. I know he's after the cure. I'm not stupid.
Rebekah
Well, let's not say things we don't mean.
