Gracie giggles as she watches Damon search through the library, tossing books aside "What are you lookin' for, Damon?" Stefan asks, walking in. Gracie jumps up and runs over, Stefan smiling and picking her up "Not your concern." Damon tells him. "No, but putting Elena in harm's way, that is my concern." Stefan retorts. Damon flips through a book, not looking at Stefan "Hm hm. What are you talking about?" he asks. "I'm talking about Atlanta." Stefan responds. "Oh, yeah. Elena and I had blast." Damon tells him looking up. "I get it. You're just bitter because one of us gets to be with the person that we love, and poor Katherine is just out of reach. Unless there's another way for you to get into that tomb. Is that what Bree said?" Stefan asks. "You're pathetic when you're fishing." Damon tells him. "And you're transparent when you're deflecting." Stefan counters. "Don't you have school?" Damon asks, picking up another book. Stefan sighs "You wan to come to school with me?" he asks Gracie. "Me stay with Uncle Damey?" Gracie asks him. "Okay, but you be good." Stefan tells her. "I will Daddy." Gracie smiles. Stefan puts her down and kisses her head, walking out. Gracie runs back to her chair and watches as Damon continues searching the library.

Later that day, Damon takes Gracie to the Grill where he walks over to Bonnie "What do you want from me?" Bonnie asks. "I think we need a fresh start." Damon tells her. "You tried to kill me." Bonnie glares. "But I didn't, and if I wanted to, I would have. Does that not count for anything?" Damon asks. "You know, I can start fires with my mind. Fires kill vampires, right? Just stay the hell away from me." Bonnie retorts. A worker, with the name tag Ben, walks over "Everything okay over here?" he asks. "Yeah, we're fine." Damon responds. "I wasn't talking to you." Ben glares. Damon grits his teeth and looks at Gracie "How about we go get those cheesy fries?" he asks. Gracie grins and nods at her Uncle excitedly "Wit chocwot milk?" she asks. "With chocolate milk." Damon agrees, carrying her over to the bar to order.

That evening, Gracie giggles and runs into the library and over to Damon "Unca Damey, look! I a cheerweader!" she giggles

That evening, Gracie giggles and runs into the library and over to Damon "Unca Damey, look! I a cheerweader!" she giggles. "You are! I think you're the best cheerleader I've ever seen." he tells her, picking her up. Stefan walks in in his 50's clothes and his hair styled "You got the hair right." Damon tells him. Stefan drops a journal down on the desk in front of Damon "Why are you bringing me dad's journal?" Damon asks. "Cause you were looking for it." Stefan tells him. "And why would I want it?" Damon asks. "Gee, I don't know, Damon. Maybe you wanna do a little bit of posthumous bonding. Go ahead. Enjoy it. Read it. I have. Nowhere in it does it say anything about Katherine, or the tomb, or how to open it." Stefan responds. Damon picks up the journal and flicks through the pages "I'm not surprised. Man could barely spell his own name." he tells his brother. Gracie jumps out her Uncle's arms and runs to play with her toys while she waits for her dad "I'm really sorry that it won't be of any help with your diabolical plan, the sequel. You know, I could help you." Stefan tells Damon. "You? Help me? Aw, I don't know. Seems a little unnatural." Damon responds. "I'll do anything to get you out of this town, even release Katherine." Stefan says.
