I miss being human.
Humanity's not all it's cracked up to be.
There you go, pretending to turn it off; pretending not to feel. Damon, you're so close, don't give up!
I feel, Elena! And it sucks.
This town is crawling with vampires. But don't worry, we'll get them.
Who are you?
I'm your friend. There are others like us, and they're on their way.
I'm...lost.
And you're laying in the middle of the road?
Not that kind of lost. Metaphorically...existentially...
Do you need help?
Well, yes, I do. Can you help me?
Don't move.
I don't want any trouble!
Neither do I! But it's all I got, is trouble.
...Why can't I move?
What's your name?
Jessica.
Hi, Jessica. I have a secret. I have a big one. And I never said it out loud! I mean, what’s the point? It’s not gonna change anything, it’s not gonna make me good; make me an adopt a puppy... (pause) I can’t be what other people want me to be; what she wants me to be. This is who I am, Jessica.
Are you gonna hurt me?
I'm not sure. Because you...are my existential crisis. Do I kill you? Or do I not kill you?
(sobbing) Please don't.
But I have to, Jessica. Because I'm not human. And I miss it. I miss it more than anything in the world! That is my secret.
