Give me the address.
What, so you can go without me? No, I don't think so.
I'm not going with you. You tried to kill me.
Well, you did kill me.

You're taking a stupid risk. I could hurt you.
Then I'm stupid.
I don't want to survive... after what I've done, I just want it to be over.

GSGiuseppe Salvatore
(stands when Stefan appears in the doorway) Dear God...
Even in our death, you only feel shame?
GGiuseppe
You're one of them now...
No. Father, I came to say goodbye.
GGiuseppe
I watched you die...
You were there when we were shot?
GGiuseppe
I pulled the trigger myself.
...You killed your own sons?
GGiuseppe
You were both dead to me the moment you sided with the vampires. I only thank God that your mother isn't alive to see the disgrace you've become.
This was a real dead-end.
I wouldn't beat myself up over it, man. What did you think you were gonna find? Isobel with a cigar and slippers?
(laughs) Oh man, I-- I gotta stop this. I can't keep searching for her.
Really? After only two years? That's actually...moderately healthy.
What are you goin' on — a hundred and forty-six?
I figured the two hundred mark is probably a good stopping point.
She charmed me, your wife, Isobel. She talked a good game, man - she was smart. She had this excitement in her eyes... I probably should've known there was something different about her; some tie to Katherine. There had to be some reason I didn't kill her...
That's enough, Damon, I don't wanna hear anymore. I just don't want to waste anymore of my life searching for answers I really don't want.
Ugh. God. You're still here?
Were you expecting anything else?
Nope. (sighs and takes a seat)
So, how was the "errand"?
Futile. Although I think I witnessed the teacher having an existential crisis. Has Stefan eaten yet?
I thought you didn't care.
Chalk it up to morbid curiosity.
I think he's getting there. But he's got a lot of guilt that he has to deal with, and it doesn't help that you've spent the last hundred and forty-five years punishing him for Katherine getting caught.
This is my fault now?
No, it's no one's fault, Damon, I'm just...saying...you're not exactly innocent. You've made it your life's mission to make him miserable.
(stands up) Let me ask you a question. In all this important soul-searching and cleansing of the demons of Stefan's past, did you ever manage to get the rest of the story?
He said there was more...
Yeah. That's an understatement.
From the moment Stefan had his first taste of human blood, he was a different person. I suppose I should thank him - it's been a hell of a ride.

EEmily
You've transitioned.
You'd have rather found me dead?
EEmily
Katherine saved my life once. I owed her. But that doesn't mean I'd wish her curse on anyone.
It feels more like a gift.
EEmily
That will change.
Why is that?
EEmily
Because even in death, your heart is pure, Stefan. I sense that about you. That will be your curse.
You don't understand, Elena.
Then tell me.
It hurts me. It hurts me, knowing what I've done. And that pain - that pain is with me all the time. And every day I think that if I just...if I just give myself over to the blood, I can make that pain stop. It would be that easy. And every day I fight that. And I am so terrified that one day...I not going to want to fight that anymore more, Elena. And the next time I hurt somebody, it could be you.
Thank you.
No, Stefan, thank you. You're back on Bambi blood, and I'm the big, bad-ass brother again. All's right in the world.
No, I mean it. Thank you, for helping her take care of me.
You brood too much. Everything on this planet's not your fault - my actions, what I do, it's not your fault. I own them - they belong to me. You are not allowed to feel my guilt.
You feel guilt?
If I wanted to. It's there.
Why didn't you tell me?
'Cause I didn't want you to know. 'Cause I hated you, and I still do.
I know.
...But not because you forced me to turn.
Then why...?
(pause) Because she turned you, too. It was just supposed to be me, Stefan. Just me.
I loved you. How could I not search for you?
Because I wasn't lost, Ric.
Screw you, you selfish bitch.
You successfully cured him of anything interesting about his personality.
Remember who helped me.
I hate myself.
