Nobodies POV

City Jail

Damon enters Stefan's cell. Stefan raises his head and looks at Damon.

"You know, if you two are gonna keep me locked in here for the next decade, I think we can skip the routine visits." Stefan says

"You know I'm not a big champion in this whole Lexi-Recovery-Plan...but Elena thinks this place is gonna weaken you up, break you down and make you feel again..." Damon says

"We should all listen to Elena, right? I mean her plans always work out so well, don't they? Why are you here?" Stefan ask "What are you talking about? It's Family Day at Vampire Rehab! So, I'm paying a visit to my baby brother." Damon says

"Go away." Stefan says "Nahhh. I thought we could hang out, a little brother bonding. How've you been, Stef? Huh?" Damon ask "You know, Klaus may wanna keep Elena alive, but that doesn't mean she's safe with Rebekah..." Stefan says

"Liar, liar pants on fire, brother. Klaus compelled you to protect Elena, and if you thought for even a second that she was in danger, you'd be working a lot harder." Damon says

"You got me. You got me!" Stefan says sarcastically "Yep." Damon says "You got me. You're good. Congratulations! You can go now." Stefan says and stares at Damon. "You really have given up." Damon says "

Actually, this is my happy face..." Stefan says

Damon considers this for a moment, and then breaks the chains binding his hands and feet, freeing Stefan from the cell.

"What are you doing?" Stefan ask "Screw this Lexi-plan. I think we could both use a drink." Damon says

The Salvatore Boarding House

Elena enters the house and hears music, while Rebekah walks into the foyer with champagne glasses.

"Hey! What's up?" Rebekah ask cheerfully "You invited me over? To talk?" Elena ask "All right girls, have at it!" Rebekah yells

Six girls in various jewel-toned colored homecoming dresses walk in the room.

"Okay, now twirl please." Rebekah says

They twirl and show off the dresses.

"You compelled your own private runway show?" Elena ask "I need a Homecoming dress. So, what do you think? Pick one." Rebekah says "I'm not here to help you shop. I'm here to talk about why you don't want me to wake up Mikael." Elena says

Rebekah rushes to one of the girls, grabs her neck and vamps out.

"I said pick one, Elena." Rebekah demands.

Wind gushes through Elena's hair, just a bit. A whisper of word was heard. "Red." A mysterious voice whispers. Elena stumbles a bit on her words, thinking nothing of the voice. "the...red one." Elena says

"There. It wasn't so hard, was it? [to the girls] Go away. Remember nothing." Rebekah says

The girls leave and she picks up her champagne glass and walks to Elena.

"You do not threaten me. You'll learn what I allow you to learn. Is that clear?" Rebekah ask

Elena nods. Rebekah walks past her and Elena turns and watches her.

Alaric's Residence.

Somebody knocks on Alaric's door then opens it. It's Bonnie and she enters.

"Hey there!" Bonnie says "Bonnie! Come on in!" Alaric says "Got your message." Bonnie saya "Yeah, great! Uh, I'm sorry the place is such a mess. I'm obsessed... Anyways before we get down to business, I have a weird question, do you think that after you put back the Vail, that maybe someone stayed on this plain." Alaric ask

"uh, I don't know, why." Bonnie ask "I don't know, earlier I was looking over the photos when suddenly I got this weird chill and I turned to look but there was no one there. But it was like someone touched my cheek and left Ice." Alaric says

"okay yeah that is weird." Bonnie says "your right, forget I asked, it might just be my mind playing tricks." Alaric says

Bonnie holds up Elena's necklace. "Well I brought you the necklace that wouldn't die." Bonnie says "Ahh, that's great." Alaric says

Alaric looks at Bonnie, who looks unhappy. "You okay?" Alaric ask

"Been better..." Bonnie says "Listen, Jeremy is an idiot. And I know this with certainty, because I was once a Jeremy. Trust me, we learn... eventually..." Alaric

Alaric holds up one of the photos.

"So, I've been staring at this image all day, wondering why it looked so familiar." Alaric says

Alaric holds up the necklace, whose charm is the same shape as the drawing. "I was right." Alaric says

He holds up the necklace pendant next to the photo. "It's the same design." Bonnie says

"So, your grandmother said this necklace belonged to the witch that put the hybrid curse on Klaus, right? Well, this symbol is repeated all across the wall. I've been trying to figure out what it meant. And now I know..." Alaric says

He writes something on a post-it, sticks it to the photo and shows Bonnie: the post-it says witch.
