Okay...
Now, he directed me
to two lovely young women.
- You what?
- A hybrid, Ray. I'm both.
Oh, this is gonna be fun, Ray.
How do you know?
was so he could save Damon's life.
I mean, trust me...
You're bringing a date?
Slutty Sofie is your date?
You live by a code and all that.
Why should I let you leave?
Can you...?
Hello
I've been seeing things.
He doesn't hate you, he hates that
he's not with you. Is that my brother?
Help. Help.
Systematic, post-traumatic
Girl is on the fly
Slap your face and knock you out
Killing's what she's all about
This room's off-limits.
I just don't think anyone wants
to see you like this.
- I'm supposed to care what he thinks?
- What you're supposed to do...
What? No. No, I, uh...
I didn't say anything.
- Okay, should I not be dating?
- Hey, you're horny all the time, right?
Get a little closer to me, girl
And you'll understand
They're not Klaus' victims, Elena.
They're Stefan's.
You said you were seeing things.
You're back.

- Looking for a good time, Mr. Salvatore?
- Save me a dance, Gloria.
You know you were dreaming about me.
Explains the drool.
Is that all you wanna know?
Paints a pretty little picture of Stefan's
first experience in Chicago.
Stefan, why don't you go and fix us up
a little something from behind the bar?
Rebekah is a bit preoccupied.
Aah! Please, stop!
Daddy, you can't change who I am.
- He obviously hasn't been here.
- Tour's not over yet.
What were you doing in the 1920s,
paving the way for women's liberation?
To be honest, I hated you.
So this is the famous Stefan Salvatore
I've been hearing so much about.
She's pure vampire and you're no more
than a diluted bloodline.
You're sitting.
- Where you going?
- You think I'm lying?
They're out running a little errand
for me.
Heh-heh. Getting me to laugh.
the one who drank
his wife's blood...
Get dressed.
You're all road-trippy and gross.
The other half, Stefan...
when Carol Lockwood
called and told me about you...
- It has to work, it's the only option.
- Why are you trying to fix me?
- They know.
- That means he's here.
You compelled me to forget.
What can I say? I'm a thrill seeker.
You don't have to negotiate
your brother's freedom.
To a vampire, that's nothing.
To you, that's half your life.
He did. He will again.
He hates me.

We thought we had them
outside of Memphis.
Uh, rough week.
I'm a little stressed. You?
We'll be out of there
before the moon's full.
Problem is, I don't know how to stop.
Can I offer you a drink?
In a couple hours, the full moon's gonna
rise just above that ridge.
That's John Gilbert's ring.
Something you'll learn...
- You gave up on him, Damon.
- I didn't give up on him, Elena.
Damon, please.
Where did he go?
Know what, Tyler?
Vampire.
Everything I read said that personal
items help build a stronger connection.
- You gotta go.
- Matt, please.
All right, that's the last of the vervain.
Tyler, what is it? Just tell me.
I thought you were checked out
of taking care of people.
It was weird.
You know, all the memories and...
No, she didn't.
Thank you.

- Did she find something?
- Animal attack in Memphis.
- Well, would you be a dear...?
- I think you can probably get it yourself.
What if I was indecent?
- We haven't had one in a while.
- Okay. I'll check it out.
Not so fast, mate. You only just got here.
Pun intended, Ray. Heh.
He puts the bodies back together.
I'm sorry.
Sometimes I feel like I'm gonna explode.
You told me to tell you if I saw anything.
I'll make sure that my brother
doesn't bother us anymore.
I promised not to buy you anything,
so don't worry, I didn't pay for it.
I'm sure it's a lot more interesting
than mine.
You're wide-eyed, looking for an excuse
Ten o'clock broadcast.
She'll be here in a little bit.
Hello?
Aren't you guys mortal enemies?
- Andie wants me to pick her up.
- Your fake, compelled girlfriend...
You can't get on with your life until you've
made a wish and blown out the candles.
- Party central.
- Where are you?
Stefan.
You know,
maybe I haven't made my point.
Hey, you missed the cake.
- What happened in the car, man?
- Nothing.
- What are you gonna do now?
- It's time for step two, Ray.
You're 18. You can do all this alone now.
