- Elena Gilbert: [Damon is about to speak as he walks into the room] Caroline's sleeping on the couch.
- Damon Salvatore: I heard. And you?
- Elena Gilbert: I'm going home.
- [Walks past Damon and to the front door]
- Elena Gilbert: What you did for Caroline's mom... that's the Damon who was my friend.
- [Opens the door and is about to leave]
- Damon Salvatore: Hey. Stefan didn't drink the people blood. If you're curious... but he needs to... and deep down you know that.
- [Elena and Damon look at each other before he walks away]
- [as a new vampire, she's just killed two deputies, and now she stands before Sheriff Forbes, blood still dripping from her mouth]
- Caroline Forbes: [sheepishly] Hi, Mom.
- Stefan Salvatore: Okay, how about this, today when we're fighting, if I say "I can't do this anymore Elena" what I really mean is that I love you.
- Elena Gilbert: [smiles] And when I say "Fine, Stefan. Whatever", what I mean is "I love you too."
- Damon Salvatore: [Appears behind Stefan] What are you doing?
- Stefan Salvatore: Negotiating peace on your behalf.
- Damon Salvatore: But I don't want peace!
- Stefan Salvatore: Well, consider it opposite then.
- Damon Salvatore: Stefan. Please tell me you don't seriously think a handshake just solved our problem?
- Stefan Salvatore: No actually, I think that the first chance Mason Lockwood gets he's going to drive a stake through your heart... and then through mine, all because you took it upon yourself to try and kill him. So thank you, because we don't have enough problems!
- Damon Salvatore: Hello, Mason. Working hard?
- Mason Lockwood: Doing my part.
- Damon Salvatore: I heard you talked to Stefan.
- Mason Lockwood: Nice guy.
- Damon Salvatore: Yeah. a *lot* nicer than me.
- Mason Lockwood: Well, nice is overrated.
- Damon Salvatore: That's what I think.
- Jeremy Gilbert: What is it?
- Tyler Lockwood: A moonstone. I looked it up online. It's a natural rock but it's supposed to have all sorts of supernatural legends attached to it.
- Tyler Lockwood: Why didn't you give it to him?
- Tyler Lockwood: Because he wants it. I'm a dick that way.
- Damon Salvatore: [as Elena walks towards Stefan] What's her problem?
- Caroline Forbes: Don't worry about it.
- Damon Salvatore: Why are you being such a bitch to your Mom?
- Caroline Forbes: Don't worry about it.
- [goes off]
- Mason Lockwood: Tell your brother to watch his back.
- Stefan Salvatore: Well, I'm guessing that he only has to worry about that during a full moon, otherwise you're not as strong. Am I right? Or you would have killed Damon by now. There's one of you, there's two of us. I think you're the one who has to watch his back.
- Tyler Lockwood: I almost killed a girl today.
- Mason Lockwood: What?
- Tyler Lockwood: It was an accident, and I was being stupid. She's okay though, but there I was, you know, just for a moment, for a split second, I hoped she'd die. Look, whatever this is inside me, I don't want any part of it. I don't ever want to feel that way again. I won't. I can't.
- Damon Salvatore: This is a most unfortunate situation. Two deputies killed...
- [turns to Sheriff Forbes]
- Damon Salvatore: And you?
- [Liz stares at him in shock]
- Damon Salvatore: What am I gonna do with you?
- Caroline Forbes: [to her mother] You won't tell anyone, will you?
- [Liz turns her head away]
- Caroline Forbes: Mom? Mom! Look, I know that we don't get along in different ways, but... I'm your daughter! And you'll do this for me, right?
- [Liz just looks down]
- Caroline Forbes: Mom, please! He *will* kill you!
- [Damon nods]
- Caroline Forbes: [Mom's home] Are you off today?
- [folds arms]
- Sheriff Liz Forbes: The Historical Society Volunteer Picnic is today. You're the one who signed me up.
- Caroline Forbes: Oh, I know. I just... assumed you'd bail.
- Sheriff Liz Forbes: Nope. I'm gonna spend the whole day with my daughter.
- Caroline Forbes: Uh, you're gonna pretend to be a mother?
- Sheriff Liz Forbes: I'll bring my gun if it gets rough.
- Caroline Forbes: [skeptic] Hmm.
- [nods]
- Sheriff Liz Forbes: Come on, give me one day. I've been buried in work mode, I've barely seen you.
- Caroline Forbes: Well, be warned, I'm in a mood.
- Sheriff Liz Forbes: Goody for me.
- [Caroline scoffs, turns to leave]
- Sheriff Liz Forbes: What was Elena doing here so late last night?
- Caroline Forbes: Elena wasn't...
- [can't tell Mom about Katherine, and now Mom looks at her funny]
- Caroline Forbes: Yes. Uh, Elena was here.
- [scoffs]
- Caroline Forbes: She just needed to talk. Her and Stephan are going through a rough patch.
- Sheriff Liz Forbes: Is everything okay with you?
- Caroline Forbes: I'm fine.
- Sheriff Liz Forbes: It's just lately you seem... different.
- Caroline Forbes: I'm not different, I'm fine.
- Sheriff Liz Forbes: I know you think I don't notice these things, but I do. What's going on?
- Caroline Forbes: You know, there's pretending to be a mother, and then there's reality. Just don't push your luck, okay?
- [goes off]
