The Vampire Diaries · Season 1
Seriously. You can't knock?
Sorry. I didn't realize we were standing on formalities.
What the hell are you doing here?
You didn't get the memo? I'm here to talk some sense into poor emotionless Elena.
Are you out of your mind?
You got a better idea, Prom King? Unless you want me to lock you up in there with her, I suggest you shut up and let the adults handle this.
Well, it looks like the lunatics have taken over the asylum.
What the hell are you doing here?
Your boyfriends invited me. They want to know if you still have a heart. There it is. Your bodyguards won't let me kill you, but I can rip your throat out. So I don't have to listen to you whine. But first, satisfy my curiosity,what did you tell Elijah back in Willoughby?
That's why you're here? He dumped you, didn't he? Now you're just looking for a scapegoat.
Tell me what you said to turn him against me or I will feed you your own eyeballs.
I didn't have to say anything. Look at you. A self-obsesses egomaniac on the run for 5 centuries. What good would you be to anyone? You're the definition of damaged goods. No wonder Elijah left you.
Yeah, I've done some pretty horrible things to survive, but unlike you, poor, delicate Elena, I don't turn it off. I deal with it. You wouldn't last a week as a vampire without everyone fawning over you. By I'd love to see you try.
Enough. You are acting like a little spoiled brat. You know that? You think that we can't punish you. Maybe not. But I can sure punish him.
(weakly) Elena.
Seriously you think that this is...
Shut up. I'm done playing nice. Turn your emotions back on right now, Elena, or so help me, God, I will give you something to be sad about. I will kill him right here in front of you.
Damon.
Don't "Damon" me. If she doesn't love anyone, fine. Prove it. And if I'm wrong, what difference does it make? One less bus boy.
Elena...
Your bluffing.
(snaps Matt's neck, causing Elena to gasp in horror) How about now. Feel anything now? You angry I just turned your buddy into road kill? Or are you sad that the guy that everybody loves is just a bag of bones? Remember when he was a little kid, huh? Warm heart, big, goofy smile, his whole life ahead of him. I guess it was a good idea that he wearing this. (on Matt's hand is a Gilbert ring)
Oh, God, Matt.
You feel that weight lifting off your chest? That's joy. Because your friend isn't dead. That's emotion, Elena. That's humanity.
You ok?
No. I'm not ok. But I will get better.
I'm perfectly aware that tombstone isn't just a hunk of rock.
No kidding.
And it got me thinking, all big spells require a source of power, a recurring element like a full moon, a comet. But that tombstone is filled with the blood of your ancient reflective Katsooyay or whatever.
Qetsiyah.
She was powerful enough to create the other side. So maybe, if you have her blood, you don't need a full moon to drop the veil. Maybe you can do it whenever you want. The thing I can't figure out is why do you want to drop the veil at all?
I have my reasons.
And again, I ask, what's in it for me?
You'll get the one thing you want most in this world-- freedom, survival. Never having to run from anyone again. Once I've dropped the veil, I can speak to Qetsiyah. She created the spell that made Silas truly immortal, invulnerable to any weapon. You'd like that for yourself, wouldn't you? I can give it to you.
Bonnie Bennett, we have a deal.
You think it's Silas?
Or a doctor with some very questionable bedside manner.
"Brother and friend." What genius came up with that one? I give up, Jer. I really want to kill her for you, but... there's no point. Stefan's right. It's just a distraction. And... I can't. I can't do this. I can't-- I can't move on. And I don't want to. If that makes me weak, then fine, I'm weak. But I can't handle you... you being gone... and I can't handle feeling like this anymore.
Hello, old friend. Pity about your brother. Guess it's just me against you now.
(holding a graduation announcement) So, let me get this straight: you send out a notice of your impending graduation and people feel obliged to give you money?
Pretty much.
That sounds brilliant. Why aren't you participating?
I don't have a whole lot of family.
That makes two of us. Besides, I don't think it was my mother's dream to see me in a cap and gown. How about your mum?
Let's just say I'm not holding my breath for a graduation check.
So, what's the deal? I'm new to this whole emotional switch situation.
(while playing darts) It's not complicated. See that dart board? All I can picture is Katherine's face.
So your emotions are on, they're just dialed to rage.
Look, Rebekah. I get that we had our Thelma and Louise thing back when I had my humanity off, but let me make one thing clear: we're not friends.
Okay, this is the center of the triangle. I'm ready. Now, give me the tombstone.
The fact that this spell hinges on some crappy hunk of blood-rock does little to inspire my confidence.
It's filled with the calcified blood of Qetsiyah, one of the strongest witches in the world. It'll work.
If I can see you... (he pats Alaric's arms and face) ...and I can touch you, that means the little witch did it. She dropped the veil.
Well, not completely. It's only down inside the Expression triangle. If I step outside of it, it's back to ghost world.
Well, where is everybody? I figured with the veil down, it'd be like Ghost-a-palooza.
Well, not every ghost has a reason to come back to Mystic Falls. Just the ones like me, looking after their idiot best friends.
I'm more worried about the ones looking out for their enemies.
(eyeing Kol) I'm assuming this means Bonnie dropped the veil.
Not completely, and not for long. But who am I to give up an opportunity for revenge? My killer's already dead, but his sister's just as culpable, so maybe you could help me find her.
If you hurt Elena, I swear...
(breaks a bottle against the bar) Oh, I'm going to. But please, continue. I'm curious as to where you're going with this.
You made your point, Kol. Now leave!
First tell me where I can find Elena.
She left here hours ago, we don't know where she is. Now get out!
Caroline, hey, snap out of it.
(completely tranced) I need to bleed. Silas wants me to bleed.
Stop it, you're hallucinating!
(tries to grab broken glass) Just let me do this. I need to do this!
(holding her back) You're going to cut your hands off!
You've been back, what, 5 minutes and you're already laughing at me?
No, I've been laughing at you for a while, you just haven't been able to see me.
Do you have any idea how much I've missed you?
Trust me, I do. Although I see I've been replaced by another blonde?
In case Caroline didn't thank you for pulling her out of that hallucination earlier... thanks.
I'm just glad I got the chance to knock her upside the face.
