Jeremy wakes up and looks at Stella's sleeping figure and he leaned down and kissed her cheek and she stirs a bit and then her eyes flutter open and she looks at him and she leaned in and kissed him and he kissed her back and things got heated and then they escalated and then they pulled the covers over them and about a half hour later they get dressed and go downstairs and get some food. Then they get in his car and leave to go to the town square.

Salvatore Boarding House:
Stefan and Damon are in Stefan's bedroom. Damon: You two brought back John Gilbert? That was your big "Save Elena" move? Stefan: We went to go look for Isobel, and we get John instead. He said he can help us, and we're desperate.
Damon: We're not that desperate, Stefan. The guy tried to barbecue me!
Stefan: Damon, Bonnie's new witch friend is working with Elijah, so we have to assume that the moonstone was never destroyed . Elena is putting all of her faith into some deal that she made with Elijah to keep everyone safe. I mean, do you trust Elijah? I don't trust him. He's an Original, he can't be trusted. It's not like we can just go up and kill him, because apparently, he can't die!
Damon: I'm still waiting for the part where John Gilbert is the answer. Stefan: He knew about the sacrifice, Isobel told him. He said he knew of a way to keep Elena safe. Damon: And how do we do that? Stefan: He's not talking. At least not to me anyway. Damon: Great work Stefan. Top notch. As if I didn't have enough problems. Stefan: Hey, I'm sorry about Rose. Damon: Whatever. I knew the woman for five minutes. Stefan: And you cared about her after five minutes. I wonder what that means? Damon: It means I care, Stefan. It means I'm changing, evolving into a man capable of greatness. Better watch your back, because I may just have to go get a hero-hairdo of my own, and steal your thunder. He leaves. Stefan receives a text from Caroline reading "911 NOW".
Town Square:
John joins Carol Lockwood at the memorial. Carol: It's good to have you back, John. We could really use you. John: And the Council? What are they doing? Carol: Damon Salvatore is leading the Council now. Talk to him. Excuse me. A woman arrives to talk to Carol. She leaves. Jeremy and Stella walk by, and John stops them. John: Jeremy, there you are. Jeremy: Looks like I slept through the homecoming. John: You didn't miss much. Let's say that no one's happy to see me would be an understatement. Jeremy: Look, things are different now. You can't come around and start up with all this anti-vampire stuff.
John: I have no intention of doing that. How's that ring been treating you? Jeremy: Look, if this is what you came for, just take it and go. He offers him the ring, but John doesn't take it. John: What kind of a man would I be if I took that from you? You want to go grab some lunch? Jeremy: I think I'll pass. John leaves. Jeremy and Stella see Bonnie and smile. Jonas approaches Bonnie and walks alongside her. Jonas: Hello, Bonnie. Bonnie: I don't have anything to say to you, Dr. Martin, or your son. Jonas: You must be feeling very confused about us.
