Gilbert Residence

[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 arrives. 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 joins 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 mildy 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.]

Fell's Church Tomb

[Stefan is talking with Damon, who is standing at the tomb's entrance.]
Stefan: You trapped her in the house?
Damon: It's for the best. Trust me. Elena is on a martyr tear that rivals your greatest hits. You should be glad the witch and I are even getting along. I brought you this.
[He holds up a bag.]
Damon: Care package: candles, lanterns and...lunch.
[He shows him a bottle of blood.]
Stefan: Give that to me and I'm just gonna have to share it with her.
[Damon looks at Katherine who standing not too far away.]
Damon: Yeah...
Katherine: You two are surprisingly calm, considering Klaus will hunt you down and kill you if you mess with his little plan.
Damon: I've been dead before. I got over it.
[He looks at Stefan.]
Damon: Once we deal with this moonstone, we'll figure a way to get you out.
Stefan: Don't worry about me. Just make sure Elena's safe.
[Damon looks at Katherine and leaves with the bottle of blood.]

Mystic Grill

[Jenna is sitting at a table with Alaric.]
Jenna: So now I'm playing historical society hostess to some writer who's doing his book on small town Virginia.
Alaric: Well that sounds...
Jenna: Lame, yeah, but Carol Lockwood played the "dead husband" card, said she was too busy to deal. Plus, my sister kept most of the archives, so there you have it.
[She kisses him and leaves. Tyler arrives and joins Caroline at a table. Alaric looks over at them.]
Tyler: Hey.
Caroline: Hey. What's wrong?
Tyler: This girl Mason knows stopped by the house. She said he never made it back to Florida. My mom is freaking out and she was on the phone with your mom when I left.
[Alaric continues looking at them as he eavesdrops on their conversation.]
Tyler: We should get going.
Caroline: Yeah.
[She gets up and shares a knowing look with Alaric.]
