God Comes To Mystic Falls

AFTER SCHOOL SPECIAL

MYSTIC FALLS HIGH

 A memorial service for Carol Lockwood is underway in the gym of the high school. The students are lighting candles in glass cups as part of the service. Liz is speaking at a podium in front of the stand.

Liz: Carol Lockwood always said that togetherness in times of tragedy leads to healing, that one community is stronger than a thousand of its members. But how does a community stay strong after losing its leader? And Carol was so much more than a leader; she was an open-minded friend and a concerned mother, taken from us too soon by a terrible accident.

Tyler is among the students looking angry

Tyler: Fuck this

He stands up and storms through the crowd leaving the gym. 

Liz:  In the wake of this tragedy, the town has selected an interim mayor. Many of you may already know her. Please welcome Margot Blake

Margot walks up onto the stage and takes the microphone.

Margot: Thank you so much, Sheriff. Carol Lockwood put this town first. My first order as Mayor of Mystic Falls, Tyler Lockwood is hereby expelled from Mystic Falls High and the Lockwood Estate is transferred under my name. 

Tyler stops at the back of the gym, slowly turning around and clenches his hands into fists glaring at her until he turns and leaves the gym. 

MYSTIC GRILL

Liz and Margot are sitting at a table

Liz:  So, first speech under your belt. Now for the fun part. Welcome to the world of careful cover-ups. 

She pushes a folder across the table to Margot who opens it.

Liz: We've ruled Carol's death as head trauma from a fall-that's the official autopsy.

Margot: She did not go gently, did she? Any leads?

Liz: We have ideas.

Margot: I already know who did the deed. 

HEAVENLY PENTHOUSE

The archangels are gathered around in Margot's office looking at a white board

Raphael: This professor. He knows where the cure is?

Gabriel: Me and D-Man calls him Professor Creepypants. 

Lucifer: Is that his last name?

Gabriel: I don't know

Michael: Let's pay him a visit, shall we?

Lucifer: Certainly. It's been a long time since I've tortured anyone properly. 

The four archangels leaves the office walking down the corridor. 

SHANE'S OFFICE

Bonnie is alone with Shane in his office.

Bonnie: Okay, so now I'm "gifted"? He hates my witch heritage. That's why he travels all the time; he can't handle it. And then, suddenly, he wants to be a protective father? No, not like this. Come on, distract me. Isn't there some magic therapy-thing you haven't shown me yet?

Shane: Listen, Bonnie, I hate to tell you this-actually, you know what? I take that back. I'm proud to tell you this. You don't need my help anymore. In fact...

He pulls out a box from a drawer in his desk and takes out a necklace.

Shane: I was hoping to present this with a cupcake or something. Happy graduation.

He hands Bonnie the necklace.

Bonnie: It's beautiful.

Shane: It's human bone.
