These symbols must have been left for the Hunters so they could find the cure. And this must be the story of Qetsiyah and Silas. According to Shane, Silas asked Qetsiyah for help making a spell for immortality. She helped make him immortal, only to learn he planned to use the same spell on another woman, not her. When she found out, she freaked.
So, Qetsiyah killed the other woman?
Yeah. Silas was immortal. She couldn't kill him. So, she trapped him in a cave and buried him alive instead.
Does it say anything about the Hunters purpose in all this?
I was wondering when you'd ask. Qetsiyah created a cure for immortality and then she buried it with Silas, hoping that he'd take it and die. End up on the other side with her for all eternity. But he wouldn't give her the satisfaction. So, many centuries later, her descendants created the Hunters to find him, cure him, and kill him.
[Gilbert House: Klaus is staring at Kol's burnt corpse when Tyler enters through the front door.]
[To Klaus] [Snarky] Morning, sunshine. You look pathetic.
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.
My friends will be back with the cure by then, so I could shove it down your throat and make you mortal.
I'm an Original. What makes you think my entire vampire bloodline won't be cured along with me? I.e., you.
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.
[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.
Is anyone else a little creeped out?
So, then leave. Out of everyone, your presence is the least necessary.
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.
[Gilbert House: Caroline enters through the back door. She finds Tyler in the kitchen.]
[Sees Tyler taking a cup from the top cabinet] [To Tyler] You're still here? What are you doing?
Gloating. [Pours himself a drink]
[Approaches Caroline and Tyler] [To Caroline] Hello, Caroline.
[Looks at Klaus and then turns to Tyler] [To Tyler] Come home. Don't stoop to his level.
[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]
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]
[Caroline and Tyler use the table cloth to cover up Kol's body, with Klaus watching on.]
[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.
I will never, ever, help you.
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.
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.
[Klaus vamp-speeds to grab a nearby floor lamp and plunges it into Caroline's stomach.]
[Klaus swings Caroline over to his side and bites her neck. Caroline falls to the floor.]
[Turns to Tyler] [To Tyler] Now, that was definitely worth the calories.
[Gilbert House: Tyler sits Caroline down on the sofa.]
[To Tyler] Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god!
Hey. Hey, look at me. Look at me. I can fix this.
How? The only thing that can heal me is his blood. Oh, my god! Oh, my god!
[Caroline nods at Tyler.]
[Gets up and faces Klaus] [To Klaus] She'll die if you don't heal her.
Okay. [Bites into his wrist and holds out his arms, palms up] Beg me to save her life.
Is this what you want? To remind me that I'm powerless against you? Fine. You win. I'm nothing. Now save her. Please.
I'm sorry, mate. I didn't quite catch that.
See, now I think you're just telling me what I wanna hear. I mean, you did call me pathetic earlier. And wouldn't it be more pathetic of me to help now, knowing that hours ago, you announced your plan to kill me in a manner in which you're debating because you want it to have a certain amount of flair? I'm just asking.
I'll be your slave again. I'll do whatever you want. Just help her.
[To Tyler] Get me out of here. I can't even look at him.
[Gets Caroline up] Come on. [Carries Caroline away, with Klaus watching on]
You mean what you said? About a cease-fire?
Why do you all assume that I hate Elena so much?
Well, I mean, you did run her off a bridge.
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.
[Gilbert House: Caroline is lying on Elena's bed with Tyler by her side.]
[To Tyler] It's getting worse. I'm sorry.
No, it's my fault. I'm sorry.
No, you didn't do any of this.
I unsired the hybrids and turned them on Klaus. I should've just left it alone.
You freed them, Tyler. People put their faith in you because you're a leader. Don't forget that.
[Klaus is standing in the living room when Tyler carries Caroline into the living room and lays her down on the floor. Klaus turns to Caroline and Tyler.]
[To Klaus] You wanna be in control, Klaus? Here. Now you get to be in control of her life. If you want her to die, fine. But then you can sit here and watch her die yourself.
[Tyler leaves the house. Caroline looks up at Klaus, who approaches her.]
[To Caroline] Nothing personal, love. But if I cure you, that means victory for him. [Crouches down next to Caroline] Don't worry. It won't be long now.
[Gilbert House: Caroline is lying on the sofa, breathing raspingly. Klaus stands across the room.]
[To Klaus] If you don't feed me your blood, I'll die.
Then you'll die, and Tyler will have learned his lesson the hard way.
How could you do this to him? To his mom? To me?
I'm a thousand years old. Call it boredom.
Fine. Then maybe it's because I'm pure evil, and I can't help myself.
No, it's because you were hurt. Which means that there's a part of you that is human.
[Klaus approaches her and sits on the table next to the sofa.]
How could you possibly think that?
Because I've seen it. Because– I've caught myself wishing that I could forget all the horrible things that you've done.
I know that you're in love with me. And anyone capable of love is capable of being saved.
I guess I'll never know. [Starts to convulse]
[Klaus lifts Caroline into a sitting position, sits behind her, bites into his wrist, and puts it to her mouth. Caroline starts drinking. Klaus smooths her hair as she regains strength and continues to drink.]
I didn't take it [the tombstone], but here. (Holds out the white oak dagger) Consider this a peace offering.
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.]
