Elena is in her bedroom with Bonnie. She looks at the moonstone. Elena: Now that you've got this back, what are you gonna do with it? Bonnie: Right now, it's what is binding the Sun and the Moon Curse. If I can figure out a way to remove the spell from the stone, the stone becomes useless. Elena: And according to Katherine, Klaus becomes vengeful. Bonnie: Maybe. If he finds out. Elena: Bonnie, can't this wait? Stefan is stuck in the tomb with Katherine. We've got to get him out.
Bonnie: Stefan wants me to focus on this. Elena: Don't listen to him. He thinks that he's protecting me, but he's wrong. Bonnie: I'm taking Stefan's side with this one. We're not gonna let you get used in some creepy sacrifice ritual. Jeremy and Stella arrive. Bonnie takes the stone from Elena's hand. Jeremy: What are you guys arguing about? Bonnie: We're not arguing about anything. She puts the stone in her bag and exchanges a glance with Jeremy. Bonnie: I need a coffee. She gets up and leaves. Jeremy looks at Elena. Elena: What?
Jeremy: Why are you on some suicide mission? Elena: I'm trying to prevent everyone else from getting hurt. Jeremy: Oh so, bringing Klaus the moonstone so you can get yourself killed is okay? He shakes his head as he leaves. Elena waits a beat and takes the moonstone from Bonnie's bag. She quietly hurries down the stairs. She has her car keys in her hands. Bonnie is about to head up the stairs and sees her. Bonnie: Where are you going? Elena: Um, to see Stefan. Bonnie: You're lying. Elena: No, I'm not. Bonnie: Really? Tell your face. Elena: Are you serious?
Jeremy and Stella join them. Jeremy: She took the moonstone. Elena: How did you...? Bonnie: We tested you, and you failed. Elena: Klaus killed Katherine's entire family just because she crossed him. I can't let that happen. Bonnie steps aside to let her leave. Elena looks mildly confused as she walks down the stairs and opens the door to leave, but an invisible barrier prevents her. She's trapped. She turns around and looks at them. Elena: What did you do? Bonnie: It's for the best, Elena. Bonnie looks at Jeremy. He's smiling. Elena continues to try to break the barrier, to no avail.
Damon enters the house and joins Elena in the living room. Damon: You should really lock your door. Oh, come on, pouty. At least give me two points for ingenuity. Elena: Do you think this is funny? Damon: Yes Elena. I find hilarity in the lengths that I have to go to repeatedly save your life. Elena: What does Stefan say about this? Damon: We had a good laugh. Elena: And what did he say about Elijah still being alive? He sits down next to her on the couch, putting his arm behind her head. Damon: Yeah, that...I didn't tell him. Elena: Why not? Damon: Well A: he can't do anything about it; and B:...what I just said.
Jeremy and Stella enter the room and sit down with them. Damon: Where is Bonnie? Jeremy: I thought she was meeting you. Damon: No, she's on moonstone duty and I'm on Elena patrol. Stella: And who's on Tyler Lockwood and the full moon? Damon: Vampire Barbie asked me if she could handle it, and I said, why not? Figured if she screwed up, he'll bite her and then I'll be rid of two of my problems. Elena: Hold on a second. Tonight's the full moon? Damon's phone rings. Damon: Yep, but you were too absorbed with all your suicidal tendencies to notice.
