Elena, Damon and others in “Unfinished Business”

Elena

I said, I'm going to kill you!

Damon

Bingo! See? There's a little rage. I should have figured out that'd be the first emotion that came out of you. I tend to pull that out of people.

Stefan

Elena, look at me. We don't want to do this, okay? You can stop this right now. It's your choice.

Elena

Kind of funny, actually, you being the one to pull back the curtain. I bet part of you enjoys it since, you know, I dumped you and all.

Damon

Wow. That was downright vindictive. See? I think now we're breaking through that tough candy shell and getting into the ooey-gooey rich center of your humanity. This is good. I think we should shine some light on the subject.

Elena

Let me guess... this is gonna hurt you a lot more than it hurts me.

Stefan

Look, I know what you're going through. After all you've done, you're afraid to face the guilt you'll feel if you turn your emotions back on. The only way we can help you is to make the alternative hurt even worse.
