Stefan: [voice over] For over a century, and I have lived in secret; hiding in the shadows, Until now.
I shouldn't have come home. I know the risk. But I had no choice. I have to know her.

[Alayna is writing in her diary.]

Alayna: Dear diary, today will be different. It has to be. I will smile, and it will be believable. My smile will say "I'm fine, thank you." "Yes, I feel much better." I will no longer be the sad little girl who lost her parents. I will start fresh, be someone new. It's the only way I'll make it through.

Bonnie: Major lack of male real estate. Look at the shower curtain on Kelly Beech. She looks like a hot — can I still say "tranny mess"?

Alayna: No, that's over.

Bonnie: Ahh, find a man, coin a phrase. It's a busy year.

[Alayna waves to Matt. He ignores her.]

Alayna: He hates me.

Bonnie: That's not hate. That's "you dumped me, but I'm too cool to show it, but secretly I'm listening to Air Supply's greatest hits."

[Caroline approaches them.]

Caroline: Alayna, Oh, my god.

[Caroline hugs Alayna.]

Caroline: How are you? Oh, it's so good to see you. How is she? Is she good?

Alayna: Caroline, I'm right here. And I'm fine.
Thank you.

Caroline: Really?

Alayna: Yes. Much better.

Caroline: Oh, you poor thing.

[Caroline hugs her again.]

Alayna: Okay, Caroline.

Caroline: Oh! Okay, see you guys later?

Bonnie: OK! Bye!

Alayna: No comment.

Bonnie: I'm not going to say anything.

[Outside the school.]

Jeremy: Don't take more than two in a six-hour window.

[Vicki takes the pills.]

Tyler: Hey, Vicki. I knew I'd find you here with the crackheads.

Vicki: Hey.

Tyler: Hey, Pete Wentz called. He wants his nail polish back.

Jeremy: Pete Wentz, huh? How old school T.R.L. of you. Carson Daly fan?

Vicki: Oh, Ty, be nice. That's Alayna's little brother.

Tyler: I know who he is. I'll still kick his ass.

[Vicky/Tyler kiss]

[Outside the school office.]

Bonnie: Hold up. Who's are they?

Alayna: All I see are two back's.

Bonnie: One's a hot back.
