*Gilbert Residence (Past)Elena's radio alarm clock goes off at 6:45 in the morning. She turns up the music and gets out of bed. She pulls her hair up into a ponytail and dances a bit in front of the mirror. She grabs her pom poms and throws them onto the window seat where her cheerleader uniform is laid out. After changing into her uniform, Elena walks downstairs and into the kitchen where Aunt Jenna is making coffee.*
Jenna: Hey.
Elena: Jeremy locked himself in the bathroom again. Does he think we don't know what he's doing in there?
Jenna: He's fourteen. They don't think.(Aria then walks down with her cheerleader uniform and hugs Elena)
Aria: Hey sis, are you ready?
Elena: almost.(Elena grabs the coffee pot, but Jenna takes it back.)
Jenna: Hey! You'll get me in trouble.(Miranda walks into the kitchen.)
Miranda: Good morning.
Elena: Morning, mom.(Miranda kisses Elena on the cheek when suddenly Aria jumps on Elena's back making Elena groan)
Aria: Morning,Mom!
Elena: ugh! Get off me!(she pushes Aria off of her as Aria laughs)

*Mystic Falls Hospital,Elena wakes up in a hospital bed at night and looks around. Later when she's asleep, Meredith,Jenna,Aria and Jeremy are outside her room, observing her.*
Meredith: She's gonna be fine. She got a little banged up today, hit her head, but it was just a slight concussion, nothing to worry about.
Jeremy: But she collapsed, there was blood.
Aria: Right,something else must have happened.
Jenna: guys come on,if Meredith said she's ok then she is.
Meredith: Honestly, Jeremy and Aria, she's okay. She's just...she's been through a lot. Is there anyone you want to call?

*Road,Damon and Stefan are driving towards the Atlantic to dump Klaus' body. Jeremy has called them from the hospital.*
Damon: You did what?
Jeremy: I took her to the hospital. When you find your sister unconscious, you call 911.
Damon: Not when you have a parade of vampires at your disposal!
Stefan: Every remaining Original is gonna want Elena dead to stop Alaric. She's a sitting duck in there.
Jeremy: Well, Meredith wants to keep her here for observation and Jenna and Aria are watching over her.
Damon: Jeremy, it's better if Aria and Jenna watch over Elena at home so get Elena home, we're on our way.(Damon hangs up on him.)Have I told you lately how much I appreciate you not being the dumbest brother on Earth?
Stefan: You know one of us needs to keep moving, right? If Klaus really is the sire of our bloodline, we need to keep his body hidden before Alaric finds him, kills him, and we all end up dead.
Damon: Our life is one, big, proverbial coin toss.

*Mystic Falls Hospital,Meredith enters her office and is startled by the sight of Alaric sitting at her desk.*
Alaric: Hello, Meredith.
Meredith: What are you doing here?
Alaric: I'm Elena's guardian. I thought it was strange I didn't get a phone call.
Meredith: How did you find out?
Alaric: I have eyes and ears everywhere now. It's funny, the people of this town are actually good at their jobs when you allow them to be. Speaking of, you are a little too good at your job.(Alaric gets up and opens a mini fridge. He pulls out a rack of test tubes filled with vampire blood.)But that's because you cheat. So, I found your stash of vampire blood.(Alaric opens the test tubes and starts pouring the blood onto her desk.)
Meredith: No, stop it! No, don't do that, stop it!(Alaric empties the last tube of vampire blood on her desk.)
Alaric: The Council will be in touch with the medical board to have your license suspended. Mayor Lockwood and Sheriff Forbes are being relieved of their duties. I'm getting this town back under control.(He takes Elena's medical folder out of Meredith's hands.) And you will be releasing Elena to my custody.(Alaric signs the paperwork and hands it back to a distraught Meredith. He exits the room and walks towards Elena's hospital room. He enters it and finds the bed empty.)

*Gilbert Residence,Tyler,Aria and Matt open the front door. Caroline walks in behind them with her arm wrapped around Elena along with Jenna, helping her into the house.*
Caroline: Couch.
Elena: I'm fine. I just...I want something to eat first.
Tyler: We're on it, as soon as we make sure no one is lurking in the closets.(Tyler and Matt walk upstairs. Caroline and Jenna leads Elena to the couch while Aria walks right behind them)
Caroline: All right, couch, now!
Elena: Uhh, I told you I'm fine.
Aria: No your not, you fainted and blood came out,which is why I want to do a spell to make sure it wasn't a witch trying to hurt you.(her phone then rings and sees it was Katherine) I'll be right back.(she walks up stairs to her room while Caroline grabs a blanket off a chair and follows Elena.)
Caroline: while Aria does that, the Doctor says rest, you rest.(Elena sits down on the couch and Caroline covers her with the blanket.)Now, what can I get you? Do you want some tea, maybe some vodka? Both will help you sleep.(Elena stares at Caroline and Caroline sits down on the couch.)
Caroline: I know, I'm being smothering. It's what I do.
Elena:No, it's-it's nice.
Caroline: I'm thinking-maybe tea with vodka.(They both laugh and Caroline gets up. Elena remains on the couch and looks at a picture on the end table of her and her parents and one of her with her cheerleader uniform on.)
