JJo
(to Alaric) I followed you like a crazy stalker. Not one of my finer moments.

JJo
You'll die if I move you. You nicked your descending aorta.
I know. It's what killed me.
JJo
Well you didn't have me back then, did you? And you didn't have hemostatic gauze.
JJo
(to Alaric) While I'm sealing this wound, I want you to think about how you tried to compel one of the smartest women on campus to forget about her date with you. The date where I single-handedly saved dozens of lives without smearing my makeup.
[To Matt and Sarah] I keep trying to cancel Bonnie's phone, but I can't without her PIN. Why can't I remember her PIN?
[Losing control of his ferocity and savagery, Jeremy slams his smartphone down on the pool table, smashing it into pieces. He holds up his hand, which is cut open with jagged pieces of the broken phone embedded in it and is shaking slightly. Jeremy stares at it for a moment, then resumes his ferocity and savagery, swinging his hand through a bottle of alcohol that sits on the pool table, shattering it and sending glass flying everywhere, then pounding his fist into the pool table repeatedly and repeatedly.]
[Grabs Jeremy, despite Jeremy trying to break free] [To Jeremy] It's okay. It's okay.
SSarah
[With her hand behind Jeremy's back] [To Jeremy] It's gonna be okay.
[To Sarah] NO, IT'S NOT! [To Matt] She's gone. Bonnie's gone.
[Jeremy slowly starts to break down crying and sobbing, prompting Matt to hug him tightly.]
Oh, I got it. Everybody's sorry. You're sorry you gave up on me, sorry you turned Enzo into that hunter guy. Ric's sorry for the compulsion. I'm sure if Elena could remember anything, she'd be sorry, too.
(about Elena) Ric said she's happy without me since she's erased me. You know what? I don't want her to be happy. I want her to be miserable, just like I am.
(pauses) You done?
Yeah. I'm done.
Here goes everything.
So am I your last stop on the Stefan Salvatore apology tour?
Okay, I'll start. I know Alaric eternal-sunshined our relationship out of your brain, but please, please tell me it's coming back. Or at least part of it, because imagining this exact moment is what got me through the last few months.
I'm not sure what to say...
Easy! So easy! Just say that you missed me as much as I missed you.
Damon, I know that I loved you.
Yeah!
And I know that, apparently, I forgave you for all the awful things that you did...
Yeah.
But I just don't remember it. I'm sorry, I just don't...feel it anymore.
All the terrible things I did to people Elena cared about, let's see... I turned Caroline into my own personal blood juice box, I turned Matt's sister into a vampire, and threatened to kill Bon-Bon a couple times.
More than a couple.
Subjective - sometimes I was being funny.
You killed Stefan's best friend - at his birthday party...
An unfortunate coincidence.
And then you snapped Jeremy's neck when Elena said she'd never love you...
On second thought, let's focus on all of the charming, heroic things you obliterated from my girl's mind.
Do you want me to feel guilty? Because, trust me Damon, I do, okay? I feel horrible, and I'm sorry, but I don't... I don't know what to tell you. What do you want me to say? I don't remember us!
I do! And no matter how much I missed you or how much pain I was in, I never would have erased everything we ever had! Even if I was drowning in grief, I'd rather hang on to every moment that I ever held you, or every laugh that I ever heard, every shred of happiness that we ever had. I would rather spend every moment in agony than erase the memory of you.
I remembered something out there. Just bits and pieces, but, um...there were these stars, and then it...it started to rain...
When you became a vampire, part of me was thrilled. Because suddenly there was this possibility I could have you in my life forever. And then the other part of me was devastated, because I realized you'd lost the life that you wanted to have...
It started to rain, and then... What happened, Damon?
And since I've been gone, you've gotten part of that life back. You're thriving, you're happy. Yeah, sure, maybe you'd be happy if we gave it another chance, but...the truth is, you're better off without me.
What are you talking about?
I died. You started over. I need you to live your life. Be happy. I love you, Elena. Enough to let you go.
(pauses) It started to rain... And...what?
It got cold and muddy. You were miserable, so we got in the car and we drove home.
Please don't ask my mother for her opinions.
You heard that?
Yeah. I've got superhearing. I hear everything.
Only when you listen. Why?
Why was I listening?
Why do you have a thing for me?
I don't.
Ok. Um... Why did you have a thing for me?
We said that we would never talk about this again, so just...
Look, Caroline, please just talk to me. Tell me how, tell me why. Please just make me understand how it is that I missed it.
What kind of a stupid question is that? Why did I have a thing for you? I don't know, Stefan. Maybe it's because I thought you worth having a thing for, because when I woke up as a vampire you told me that I would get through it and I did, because when I watched Elena move on with your brother I couldn't imagine why she would let anyone like you go, because you were practically my best friend, because I trusted you.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry for not seeing it, I'm sorry for not...
Feeling it back?
No. I didn't say that. I... I... Look. I don't know what I felt. You know, my head was all over the place, but I am incredibly sorry for the way that I treated you.
Yeah. Well... I know what you felt, Stefan, because even if just a little tiny piece of you felt for me what I was starting to feel for you, you wouldn't have walked away, and I don't hate you for that. I don't hate you for mourning your brother, I don't hate you for being the biggest jerk on the planet while doing so, and I accept your apology.
But you do still hate me.
Yes. Yeah, I hate you because if I don't hate you for ruining our friendship, then I have to hate myself for ruining it, and I think that I deserve better than that.
You should have brought me with you. Well, first you should have told me that Bonnie was alive. And then you should have brought me with you.
Well Ric had more frequent flyer miles, and Ric didn't deliberately forget our entire relationship.
(pause) Yeah, I deserved that.
