The Vampire Diaries

Previously on The Vampire Diaries"...

I know what you've been going through. Go to art school.

Find the life that you want and don't look back.

Meet the real Sarah Salvatore.

Stefan set me up to die, which resulted in days of torture.

That's when I started plotting my revenge.

I'm going to make her do things she'd never dream of doing

until she begs me to make her a vampire.

I don't know if you remember this,

but Liz and I are pretty close.

I need you to promise me something.

When I'm gone, Caroline is gonna need you

to help her move on with her life.

Promise me that you will do that, Stefan.

I promise.

Hey, Tony, I'm headed home for the night.

Could you do me a favor

and check up on the lockwood place?

Carol called again,

another 5-Martini stalker sighting,

oh, and some teenagers are planning

a bonfire off route 13.

No one's called to complain yet, but they will.

See you.

Forbes.

I'll be right there.

Hey, what happened?

Accident up at wickery bridge.

Driver lost control, careened off into the water.

Any other casualties? Two.

Survivors? One.

We found her up on the bank unconscious.

She must have crawled out of the car and passed out.

Elena Gilbert.

Where's her brother?

Who are the casualties?

Miranda and Grayson, her parents.

A&D international subs

Principal weber,

I know that graduation isn't for a few months,

but Jeremy just got accepted

into this great art school.

Jeremy Gilbert, I don't think so,

not with his academic record.

What's wrong with it?

You have a few hours? All right.

Let's start with drug use

in his freshman year.

You mean the year that his parents died?

Ok. So what's the excuse for the next 3 years

of woeful attendance?

Extracurricular activities,

health and fitness, that sort of thing.

I mean, did you see how scrawny he used to be?

No, but I do recall the 4 months

where he faked his own death.

Funny thing about that, he actually didn't fake it.

We went to this island off the coast of Canada

in search of this cure for vampirism,

and Jeremy... Damon!

Is this some sort of joke to you?

No. Look.

Jeremy has had a rough time here,

I know, but that's part of the reason

why we want him to go. Yeah.

Well, I'm sorry, but I can't let that happen.

So can we try this my way now?

We already compelled him into art school.

Sorry that I wanted my little brother

to actually get a degree.

He will. He just won't earn it.

Ok. Um...

This small-town atmosphere

doesn't nurture a creative spirit

like Jeremy Gilbert, and it's of your opinion

that it's high time for him

to get the hell out of Mystic Falls.

To Matt's phone, which is clearly

more important than my last day in town.

I'm here, aren't I? Where's Tyler?

He broke up with his girlfriend.

He gets a free pass. Look.

I want to take this shot before Alaric

changes his mind about letting me drink.

This place is closed for another hour.

I'm making an exception.

Cheers. Cheers.

To you, brother.

I swear, Jeremy, if I get a call

from the drunk tank in Santa fe...

You're gonna make your girlfriend

give me an std test again?

That cleared up, right?

Ha ha ha!

Why is enzo still alive, and why is he calling you?

Nothing you need to worry about.

Hey, it's Jeremy's going-away party.

Whatever you want, it can wait a day.

Actually, it can't.

Don't worry. I'm not sending you back to Duke.

I brought Duke to you.

What the hell does that...

I take it from your abrupt pause

that you either had a small stroke

or Sarah walked in.

It's good news either way.

Make her feel welcome, oh, and don't go

blabbing details of our little arrangement, around the party.

Your tongue functions much better inside your mouth.

Matt. Hey.

What are you doing here?

I got a call from the manager of this place.

He needed someone to take pictures for the website,

and he said you mentioned me.

I mean, normally, the pictures I take

are a little darker, but normally,

I don't get paid, so thanks.

You're welcome.

You want to show me around?

Yeah. Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Oh! Look who graduated.

Oh! Ha!

He was ok with it? Sure.

I mean, practically flunking, missed 100 days of school,

and you can barely spell the word "cat," but sure.

He was fine with you graduating early.

We helped the process along.

Mm-hmm.

I'm gonna get a drink.

She ok? She will be.

We all will.

Somehow, we'll all find a way to move on

without you, Jeremy.

Oh, hey, just did. Oh, look under the cap.

I jacked a little going-away present

from Ric's girlfriend's stash.

Put it away, you idiot.

Tell your sister, I'll kill you...Again.

If you really think about it,

Jeremy leaving is for the best.

I'm sure everything around him

reminds him of Bonnie, and Elena's always wanted

to protect him from vampire drama.

Granted, he is going to art school,

where the percentage rate for a well-paying job

is one of the lowest in the country,

but I really am happy for him.

Do you think you packed enough?

The whole point of this is for my mom to live out

the rest of her time here in a relaxed

and peaceful environment

surrounded by the things that she loves,

like photo albums and board games.

"The anthology of Shakespeare,"

volumes one through 12.

All the books that she's never

gotten around to reading.

Oh, hey, do you mind just...

Do you mind getting that?

Oh. Yeah. Sorry.

Um, ok. Um... just...

Sorry. Yeah. It's ok.

Got it. Um... hmm.

Why is my mom calling you?

Are you going behind my back for information?

Well, hello, Stefan. What a lovely voice you have.

Why are you calling him?

You snuck out of the house this morning

without so much as a hello.

I may be a retired sheriff, but I am still a mother.

What are you up to?

If I told you, it would ruin the surprise.

Master bedroom.

At least tell me if Stefan is there voluntarily

or against his will. Neither.

He's here because you asked him to look after me.

Sweetheart, that's not true.

Mom, I heard you talking to him in hospital.

You asked him to look after me

and make me smile and help me

move on with my life after you're gone.

I'm sure that's not the only reason he's there.

Mom, look. It's ok.

Needed an extra set of hands, anyway.

I will call you in 3 hours

with all the details.

Until then, no cheating. I love you.

Not to be blunt, but I think dying

gets you a ticket out of work.

Just saying.

How you feeling?

Like I'm not gonna leave this job

with unfinished business.

I have all these open cases.

Well, let me see if I can help you close a couple of them.

Uhh! Yeah.

This one was me.

Me.

Also me.
