the gang had been called to the hospital after jo had admitted a patient.
that patient happen to be someone who caroline had some experiment on. liz forbes was dying of cancer and caroline wanted to find a way to save her.
after caroline fed her blood to a cancer patient, there were some complications.
"i had duke send over colin's medical records. this head scan is from earlier this week." jo said putting on up.
"brain tumor." may said when she looked at the image.
"this one... was taken right here 10 minutes ago." jo said.
the image that was just taken showed multiple brain tumors.
"woah." may said.
"see all that red?" jo asked them.
"well, i'm no doctor, but that guy is screwed." damon said.
"so the blood didn't heal him, it sped up his cancer and killed him." stefan said.
"so now i have a stage 10 cancer patient, which by the way, doesn't exist... who is beyond terminally ill and a vampire. meaning, all of his emotions are heightened and he can't die." jo said.
"yeah, that's cause for concern." may said.
"hey, no offense but can someone tell me why i was called down here to listen to the story of colin the cancer vamp?" damon asked.
"because caroline fed me her blood last night. so the same thing is gonna happen to me." liz said making everyone look at her and caroline.

stefan and may found caroline at a vending machine and they went to talk to her.
"hi." stefan said to her.
"hey." caroline said.
"how are you doing?" may asked her.
"the coffee machines broken. seriously, what kind of hospital is this? if you can't fix a coffee machine, then how are you supposed to be able to fix people?" caroline said angrily.
"sure you don't need real food? there's probably a machine around here that vends o-positive." stefan said quietly.
"i screwed up, bigtime. why did i feed her that blood?" caroline said in distress.
"you were trying to help." stefan reminded her.
"no, i was trying to fix something that i had no business trying to fix. it's like textbook definition of control freak from hell." caroline said.
"listen, you are an optimist. you wanna believe that anything is possible and that is exactly what your mom needs to hear right now. okay?" stefan said to her.
they heard someone cry out in pain in the distance making them look at each other.
"that doesn't sound good." may said.
"that's colin's room." caroline said as the three of them went over to his room.
they found colin trying to stab himself with a metal stick and caroline shut the door.
