Nina Dobrev: Elena Gilbert

Quotes 

• Elena Gilbert : [on cell-phone]  Please tell me I wasn't out of my mind leaving Damon in charge of Vampire Amnesia 101.

  Caroline Forbes : What did he say, exactly?

  Elena Gilbert : One text. "So far, so good." Which, in Damon-speak...

  Caroline Forbes : ...means that they probably devoured a troop of Girl Scouts by now.

  Elena Gilbert : Caroline...!

  Caroline Forbes : I'm kidding. Kind of. Although it's not uncommon for patients with retrograde amnesia or other traumatic brain injuries to turn volatile.

  Elena Gilbert : [chuckles]  Okay, Dr. Forbes, since when do you know so much about amnesia?

  Caroline Forbes : It's possible that I studied up on my Chem, Bio-Chem, Applied Micro Bio, Molecular Bio and Grey's Anatomy. The real one and the television show.

  Elena Gilbert : You did all that for Stefan?

  Caroline Forbes : Of course I did. And I'm trying to impress Dr. Maxfield. I figure if I could get closer to him, i.e. into his Biology class, I could figure out why he covered up our roommate's murder-by-vampire. And it's also possible that I have a study buddy.

  [enters lab] 

  Caroline Forbes : Hi, Dr. Maxfield! Are you ready to go study, Jesse?

  Elena Gilbert : Jesse? Dr. Maxfield's incredibly hot, funny and miraculously single lab assistant?

  Caroline Forbes : I'm dragging him to our hometown graveyard bell-ringing ceremony.

  Elena Gilbert : As in... creepy first date?

  Caroline Forbes : As in study date. I might as well ring a bell for Tyler and me, because our relationship is on its deathbed.

• Elena Gilbert : [finds Stefan and Damon having drink]  And here I thought catching up on two centuries would be a drag.

  Stefan Salvatore : Remind me of your name... again.

  Elena Gilbert : Elena.

  Stefan Salvatore : Elena.

  [nods] 

  Stefan Salvatore : Right.

  Elena Gilbert : [to Damon]  You haven't told him about me?

  Damon Salvatore : [grimaces]  Two hundred years is a long time.

  [smiles] 

  Elena Gilbert : Right. Well...

  [takes swig from her drink] 

• Elena Gilbert : So, Mr. So-Far-So-Good, Mr. I-Can-Handle-My-Brother, Mr. I-Know-What-I'm-Doing...

  [shakes her head] 

  Damon Salvatore : Hey, I never said I know what I'm doing.

  Elena Gilbert : Mm.

  [picks up her cell-phone] 

  Damon Salvatore : Who are you calling?

  Elena Gilbert : Bonnie. A witch did this to him, maybe a witch can undo it.

  Damon Salvatore : [has to stop Elena]  I'm on top of it, sister. I've called about ten times, she hasn't called me back. I say until she does, let's just let Stefan be Stefan.

  [they look at Stefan leaving] 

  Damon Salvatore : Fun, careless, drunk Stefan. Without a hundred years of vampire guilt on his shoulders.

  Elena Gilbert : That guilt came from a blood addiction that might still be hardwired into his brain.

  Damon Salvatore : You take one philosophy class, now you're the queen of nature versus nurture?

  Elena Gilbert : [looks back to see where Stefan is]  Where did he go?

  Damon Salvatore : You don't see that cute little waitress anywhere, do you?

• Damon Salvatore : [after Stefan left]  I think we just got dumped.

  Elena Gilbert : We need Bonnie. Why hasn't she called us back? It's so unlike her. He can't stay like this.

  Damon Salvatore : [gravely]  Elena, Bonnie can't help us.

  Elena Gilbert : Did you talk to her? What did she say? There's gotta be something that she can do, I mean...

  [shakes her head] 

  Elena Gilbert : She'll figure it out, she always does.

  [sighs] 

  Damon Salvatore : [places his hands on Elena's shoulders]  Bonnie's dead, Elena.

  Elena Gilbert : What?

  Damon Salvatore : She's dead. I'm sorry.

  [shock hits Elena]
