lily had finally come to her sense after finding out the truth about julian. she wanted him dead.
stefan, may, damon and enzo were coming up with a plan to kill him.
"what's the plan?" damon asked.
"julian needs to die today. everything has to appear to be normal. julian's not an idiot. if he finds out that lily turned on him, we're all dead." stefan said before looking over at may and enzo who were sitting together.
"so you embed her with a psychopath. sounds logical." enzo said.
"hey, don't look at me, i voted to drive a stake through her heart and get rid of this julian mama drama once and for all. but, hey, complicated plan A sounds like a happy compromise." damon said.
"can't believe you'd just kill your own mother." may mumbled.
"it's not complicated. we get julian's blood, and then, nora, beau, or mary louise use it to unlink him from lily, and we kill the bastard." stefan said.
"right because nora, beau or mary louise will just do whatever we ask." may said sarcastically as enzo nodded in agreement.
"uh, you glossed over the important bit. do you really think that beau, mary louise, or nora are going to help? julian treats lily's heretics as if they're his own royal children. and they worship him right back. they'll never turn on him." enzo explained to stefan.
"the old stake through the hearts lookin' like a pretty good alternative right now. just sayin'." damon said.
"no way." may said.
"well, i guess the only way we're gonna be able to pull this off is to deploy the nuclear option." stefan said.
"which is?" enzo asked as valerie walked into the room.
"me. i know how to win them over to our side." valerie told him.
"uh, great, yeah. last i checked, she was the black sheep of the family. what are you gonna tell them to make them feel otherwise?" enzo asked her.
"the truth." valerie replied looking over at stefan.

before may went to the party, her and enzo were talking outside of the lockwood house.
"i'm sad you won't be coming as my date tonight." may said as enzo chuckled and kissed her temple.
"as am i, but we can't let julian get too suspicious that something is going down." enzo said.
he looked down at her and he couldn't imagine what it would feel like if anything bad happened to her.
"why are you staring at me?" may asked him with a small chuckle.
"just promise me, you'll keep yourself out of harms way." enzo said as he brushed some of her hair back.
"i promise." may said with a warm smile.
"good, because i need you to come back to me in one piece." enzo replied before placing his lips on top of hers.
-
may went to nora and mary-louise's anniversary party.
once stefan and valerie got there, valerie gathered lily, nora, mary-louise and beau to tell them to truth.
