Zach Roerig: Matt Donovan

Quotes 

• Matt Donovan : [to Caroline]  I get it, this is your life now. But you know what my life is, Car? My life is an absentee mom, and a bunch of bills to pay, and school, and a job, and it sucks sometimes, but it's my life and I think that I just want to live it without all this.

• Caroline Forbes : [taking shelter in house]  Come on. Get in here.

  [Matt, rifle ready, peeks out the window] 

  Caroline Forbes : Do you see anything?

  Matt Donovan : We're not safe here. If that thing wants in, it's getting in.

  [reloads rifle] 

  Caroline Forbes : How did you even know... what I was?

  [shakes her head] 

  Caroline Forbes : I compelled you to forget.

  Matt Donovan : I was on vervain. I faked forgetting so that I could spy on you. It was your Mom's idea.

  Caroline Forbes : Wait, my Mom knows? Oh, my God! You told her! Well, what did she say?

  Matt Donovan : Your Mom hates vampires.

  [Caroline sighs] 

  Matt Donovan : She grew up hating vampires and... she'll probably always hate vampires.

  Caroline Forbes : Well, what about you?

  Matt Donovan : What about me?

  Caroline Forbes : Where does this leave us?

  Matt Donovan : [shakes his head]  Stuck in this house... trying not to get mauled to death by our friend.

• Matt Donovan : You don't think I killed him, do you?

  [peeks out window] 

  Caroline Forbes : No. No, it takes a lot more than wooden bullets to kill a werewolf. He's... still out there somewhere.

  [softly:] 

  Caroline Forbes : Do you think my Mom wants to kill me?

  Matt Donovan : I don't think your Mom knows what to do with you.

  Caroline Forbes : Yeah, well, I don't really know what to do with me either.
