Elena?
-Hello again, Bonnie. -Lily.
I thought Stefan locked you in the cellar.
He did. But prisons are easily escaped.
-You should know that. -What do you want?
Must I constantly repeat myself? If you don't know what I want by now...
You want your creepy witch-vampire family back.
At the risk of repeating myself, there's no way.
Isn't there?
What's that term you witches are so fond of? "Loophole"?
Mmm. Even if there is a loophole, I wouldn't help you find it.
You've made your position clear.
Apparently I've failed to do the same.
You seem to think that I'm here for your help.
I'm not.
(SPEAKS INCANTATION)
Heh. Those are lovely words, Bonnie.
Here's another one, "Die."
(GRUNTING)
(GASPS)
Wow. You are not good at running.
(SPEAKS INCANTATION)
No magic? Oh, that's my fault. I was spooning you earlier.
I might've sleep-siphoned you.
Oh, but keep trying. It's adorable. Like you're having a little seizure.
How are...
Think you could keep screwing people over
and there wouldn't be any consequences?
LILY: Now...
...where were we?
Up, up, up. Come on. No time to sleep in. We have to get Jo.
-Get Jo? -Yeah.
Is everything okay?
I hope so, considering she's walking down the aisle in T-minus-10 hours.
Come on. Wedding bells await.
(MUSIC PLAYING)
Crap.
They're not here.
-What's wrong? -My shoes.
My gorgeous, expensive, wear-them-once- and-then-never-again shoes,
they are missing.
-Do you want me to do a locator spell? -On my shoes?
-BONNIE: Mmm-hmm. -Is that possible?
I don't know, actually. I'm just...
Hang on. I gotta figure out how to work this stupid thing.
Good, break it. Because my wrinkled dress will distract everyone from my bare feet.
Hey, hey. Come on, don't waste all your panic now.
You still have eight hours until the ceremony.
Nonalcoholic mimosa?
One, a nonalcoholic mimosa is just juice. Two, I can't drink.
-Somebody should drink. You should drink. -I will drink, eventually.
But I have human tolerance now,
which is cheaper, but a lot less fun. Cheers.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
-JO: Mmm. -Oh. No, no, no.
-Relax. -(EXHALES DEEPLY)
Jo's phone.
Oh.
-Uh, okay. -That's not an "okay" okay.
-That's a "there's a problem" okay. -Yeah, we'll call you back. Okay, bye.
Danielle's got the flu.
(CHUCKLES)
It sounded like you just said "Danielle has the flu."
Which is impossible because Danielle is my wedding coordinator.
Yeah.
Well, how sick is she? Can she still work?
It depends on how much vomit you wanna have at the wedding.
(JO SIGHS)
CAROLINE: To be honest, maybe this is a good thing.
Because no matter how good Danielle was, I'm pretty sure I'm better.
Caroline. I missed you.
I missed me too.
Thank you for getting me back.
-Hi. -Hi.
Okay. Now, we got a lot to do and not a lot of time to do it.
Have a drink. You're not going to pass out.
Bonnie, the switch is on the left-hand side on the back.
-Oh. -And, Jo,
I can see your shoes under the couch. (CLICKS TONGUE)
Okay. Now, who's dealing with the boys?
Okay, we got suits.
I got the rings.
And the vows.
So, what do we do now?
TYLER: To Alaric Saltzman,
who, after today, will have sex
with only one woman for the rest of his life.
Seriously, one. You can't look after this.
Not that chicks are throwing themselves at an occult studies professor, but...
You should lock this down while you can.
Remember how great it was when you were fighting?
Sorry, full moon tonight. Feeling extra dickish.
And what's your excuse?
(CELL PHONES BUZZ AND CHIME)
What? What is it?
Wedding-day chores.
BOTH: Courtesy of Caroline.
Karma. Sweet, sweet karma.
(ALL CHUCKLE)
Okay, the boys are officially taken care of,
bride and maid of honor in hair and makeup.
I'm gonna head to the venue and fix whatever they're screwing up.
-Elena, the curling iron, just... -Yes, I see it, Care.
-Okay. -I'm human now, not blind.
I'm not fragile either.
You don't have to walk on eggshells around me.
I do, actually, because if you walked on them,
they could cut you, you'd get infected and die.
You know what?
Given my luck, that actually seems possible.
(BOTH LAUGH)
So, what's it like now in the world of the living?
It's different. I'm slower.
I have to look both ways before crossing the street.
-But it's nice to not... -Be a monster like me,
who turns off their humanity and commits murder
instead of dealing with grief like a normal person?
I was gonna say not to have to wear a daylight ring.
(SIGHS)
Look, I'm so sorry, Elena.
I was trying to hurt you
when I said you would never be happy with Damon because you weren't human.
And now you are.
I just hope it's not because I made you think
that you would be miserable for eternity.
Care, I've wanted to be human from the day I became a vampire.
Besides, I'm the last person that you need to apologize to.
Thanks. I kind of wanted to start with an easy one. (CHUCKLES)
-The dreaded amends tour. -Mmm.
If you see Stefan, by the way, I'm avoiding.
I just need to get my life in order first.
Starting with my friends.
Stefan is not a friend?
Stefan's complicated.
I just figured I'd work my way up to that one.
You're in the clear. He's got his hands full with Damon today.
What's wrong with Damon?
Not much. He just said he would take the cure with me.
Damon Salvatore? Human?
I can't even picture it.
Yeah. Something tells me neither can he.
Sure, I'll be your best man, Ric. But first, hang out with the worst men,
so my brother can kidnap me on the day of your wedding.
Hey, don't you hate weddings anyway?
I hate little Stefan mind games even more.
(CHUCKLES)
So any time you wanna clue me in as to where the hell we're going...
Oh, come on. It's your last few days as a vampire.
You can't blame me for wanting to spend time with my brother.
Oh, look, here we are.
Is Mr. Rogers expecting us?
You know Mr. Rogers is dead, right?
You're gonna be joining him in Make-Believe
if you don't get to the damn point.
So this is a house I lived in
during one of my many attempts to start over.
Welcome to your suburban nightmare.
-Don't think I've thought this through? -You've thought about a life with Elena.
I don't think you've thought about neighbors or a mortgage or...
BOY: Hey!
Or kids.
I don't know. Might not be your thing.
Relax. Relax.
-I'm not here to cause mischief. -Said everyone who ever causes mischief.
-I told Lily I'd visit. -Is this like some Oedipus thing or...
You know what? Doesn't matter.
Excuse me, little witch.
If you think I'm gonna let you, a ruiner, in here
to see another ruiner on the day of Jo's wedding,
you got another thing coming.
-She's lonely and hungry. -And she can't eat that.
I'm not trying to feed her. I'm trying to keep her sane.
That is filled with loads of songs from the last era she knew.
I thought it might bring her comfort.
If you're not a complete monster, I trust you'll pass it on.
LILY: I want my family back.
That's all I've ever wanted.
To have my family back with me, where they belong.
What?
(GASPS)
(GRUNTS)
She was rambling on about her family,
and I got close to her and she attacked me.
Like an animal.
Sounds like she's reached the full-blown crazy stage of drying out.
You're saying this is because she's drying out?
It's hard for me to explain how awful it is, but, yeah.
Your mind starts playing tricks on you. You start seeing things and people.
What happens when the crazy stage is over?
Stefan said that he has a plan to get her back on track.
Does that plan involve letting her out?
If he thinks she's giving up on her family...
She has to. Bonnie, you already destroyed the ascendant.
What if there's a loophole?
(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)
I'm dreading it, but I guess I should think about putting the dress on.
Something's wrong. It's not the dress, is it?
Tell me it's not the dress.
We were discussing the fact that there's a vampire
locked in a cell 50 feet from where we're getting ready.
-Did she do something to the dress? -Dress is fine. I'm being paranoid.
Okay, truck's here. Who's coming?
Caroline suggested in a semithreatening way
I pick up the centerpieces,
which sounds like a screw-up waiting to happen.
I'll come.
-Thank you. -BONNIE: Yeah.
CAROLINE: No, not there. There.
Just a little bit higher.
Well, that's not a little, but...
But I'm bad at flowers? Yeah. I assumed you knew that.
Caroline, why am I here?
I tried to kill you. My humanity was off, but I still tried to kill you.
And you're my friend and I'm sorry.
It's funny.
You and I moved on a while ago,
but getting tortured by your ex and her new boyfriend
is never good for the ego.
He's not my boyfriend.
Whatever he is, I can't keep up.
You have to know I would never do anything like that if it weren't...
You're good, Care.
And if you wanna make amends, let me get the hell out of here.
(LAUGHS)
Nice try. If I were getting married at an altar that looked like that,
I'd be divorced in a week.
So come on, Lockwood, next row.
Honestly, you should probably do that yourself.
Liv. What are you doing here?
You do know that Jo is my sister, right?
Goody, more amends.
Drinks will help. Strong ones.
-You look good. -Thanks.
-How are things? -Good.
-Still recovering from that injury? -What injury?
Whatever injury turned you into a monosyllabic goon.
Monosyllabic.
That's an awfully big word for a college dropout.
I'm sorry. Was I supposed to stay at Whitmore?
After my ass of a boyfriend told me he never wanted to see me again?
You're mad at me?
I lost my brother and my boyfriend in a week.
Instead of coming to me, you tried to kill yourself.
-I was hurt. -That doesn't make it okay.
You're lecturing me on flying off the handle?
Wow.
You know what? I'm gonna wait outside.
Gemini wedding means big coven reunion heading this way.
(SIGHS)
Elena said she's desiccating and that's why she's crazy, but...
Yeah.
She killed two people when she wasn't desiccating.
I know this will sound crazy,
but I've been having these nightmares with her and Kai.
-Here. -What's this?
When Bonnie Bennett has a hunch, you don't ignore it.
-What should we do? -I know what we shouldn't do.
Leave her in the hands of two people we don't trust.
Yeah, it's nice.
Brazilian hardwoods, open floor plan,
updated kitchen.
(MICROWAVE HUMMING)
What kind of roadkill are you cooking in there?
Considering the fact that you actually have to eat as a human,
I wanted to give you a taste of what your dinner will look like.
You don't cook, Elena doesn't cook.
Who has time anyway with work and kids, right?
Mmm. Salisbury steak. Dig in, Damon.
You're gonna need all that energy for these.
Oh, yeah? What's this?
-It's just the rest of your life. -Paperwork? That's your big move?
When's the last time you filled out paperwork of any kind?
Taxes, health insurance, driver's license?
Every idiot in the country does it. You think I'll have trouble?
You will the first time you encounter some moron you can't kill.
Maybe, but then I'll just come home
and pop a beer from my beautiful stainless steel refrigerator.
Which you won't be able to afford unless you have a job.
And if you were about to say you can borrow money from me, you can't.
-That's not very brotherly of you. -It is. I won't know where you live.
You'll have the cure running through your veins.
And if I know where you are, somebody can use me to track you down,
take the cure from you and turn you into a 172-year-old corpse.
What's the matter? Haven't thought that far ahead?
See, eventually word will spread, and you and Elena will have to move away.
You'll have to isolate yourself. No friends, no family.
This will be your life, Damon.
This will be your hell.
Well, that is where you're wrong, my brother.
This will not be my life.
This will be my life.
See, Elena was explicit about what she wanted.
This isn't TriBeCa... New York's too crowded.
But it is above a bar that I own next to a medical school.
It's in the northwest somewhere.
I'd tell you where it was, but you've made it clear you didn't wanna know.
I'm gonna go check out upstairs.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
I'm on my third glass, so speak slowly.
You know how you and I were both worried he didn't think this through?
He thought it through.
-It's Damon. He didn't. -He's ready to do this, Elena.
He's got your perfect life planned out.
I want the perfect human life with him too, Stefan. Trust me.
But life isn't perfect.
Okay, look, you have a few more hours, so push him.
Make him see that.
JO: Hey.
Remember when you were pacing yourself?
I do. Right before I told my ex-boyfriend
how to get my current boyfriend to give up hope for our relationship.
What if I made a huge mistake by taking the cure?
The only mistake you made was that last glass of champagne.
I'm gonna make some coffee before you spiral through to China.
Yeah, okay. Heh.
(GASPS)
Whoa.
Jo?
Are you okay? Jo!
Hey, Jo. Jo. No.
Jo?
Jo!
ELENA: Thanks.
The doctor got the test results back.
The babies are fine. You're fine. He thinks it was just...
An acute panic attack brought on by stress,
pregnancy and a severe lack of food.
Yeah.
What are the chances of you being an amazing maid of honor
and keeping this mortifying episode to yourself?
I don't wanna worry Ric.
Of course.
-You can't tell her I told you. -Fine, but I wanna see her.
-Not until the wedding. -Elena...
If there's anywhere that you should be superstitious,
it's Mystic Falls.
Okay, fine. But what happened?
The doctors think that she had a panic attack.
As in "she doesn't wanna get married" panic attack? Great.
As in it's her wedding day and she has two humans growing inside her
and can't self-medicate like you, bourbon breath.
Sorry.
I just... I saw her fall,
and my first instinct was to vamp to her, but I couldn't.
And then I saw her hit her head,
and I wanted to give her vampire blood, but I couldn't.
Wait, so are you having second thoughts?
No, because then I thought, "What would a human do?"
So I called 911, got her to the hospital, and then I let the doctors do their job.
And it felt oddly empowering.
-Why didn't you tell me? -Tell you what?
How amazing it feels to be human again.
At first, I was worried that it might take the edge off my senses,
but it's the opposite.
I feel...
...connected to the world again.
-I feel... -Alive?
Yeah.
That's because your life has purpose again. It's finite.
And it's...
...pretty much the greatest feeling in the whole world.
I made you guys some amazing drinks.
With a little bit of tequila.
Okay, a lot of tequila.
And there's only one of you.
-What did you do? -I didn't do anything.
Ugh. He said angrily.
Nothing has changed.
Because she walks in with a pretty dress and new haircut,
I'm supposed to forget how she acted?
No, you're supposed to talk to her like an adult and work out your problems.
-You don't know about our problems. -I know about your problems.
Unless you're cool with only making it two weeks in the police academy
and having no purpose in life.
At least when you had her, you were trying, Tyler.
You're giving me advice about relationships?
After all your Stefan drama this year? Do me a favor.
Figure out your own damn life. Let me worry about mine.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
Well, I applaud you for your effort, Stefan,
but I think it's time for the "this is your life" tour to end.
You got the address?
Yup. Tuxes are in the car. We're good to go.
-Hey, just one more thing. -Ugh. What now?
You're gonna give me a lecture on laundry? Oil changes? Personal hygiene?
-Breakups. -What about them?
I guess you hadn't thought about that, right?
What if you and Elena aren't really soul mates?
I'm not big on labels, but I think we're pretty good on that front.
Ah. You sound like me four years ago.
You know, Elena and me, we were soul mates too.
Watch it, Stefan.
Hey, I'm just being realistic.
What if something goes wrong? You're human. Still isolated. Still alone.
-Not gonna happen. -Right. Couples stay together forever.
They never fight, they never hurt each other,
they never drift apart.
-Hmm. -Let me show you.
(DAMON GRUNTS)
(DOOR OPENS)
(DOOR CLOSES)
You're still up.
Rough night?
Just long.
I keep having to tell myself
a couple of more years of residency, and I'll be free.
Come sit, have a drink with me.
I'm actually kind of tired. I'm gonna go to bed.
(ELENA YAWNS)
Oh, God, Elena has a job. Somebody help me.
That's just two years in. Wait till you hit seven.
Mmm. Hello.
You're drunk.
I sense judgment.
Which is odd. You're the one that wanted me to own a bar.
I wanted you to own it, Damon, not pass out on it every night.
Well, that bar is a lot more affectionate than you.
(ELENA SCOFFS)
I just finished my residency, Damon. I'm working my butt off to build a career.
Well, I'm drinking my butt off building mine.
If you're that unhappy, then just sell the bar.
And do what?
I don't care, Damon. Whatever it is you wanna do.
Well, that's the thing, Elena.
I can't do what I wanna do.
Because what I wanna do is drink all night without getting drunk,
drive my car like a psycho
without fear of death.
I wanna tear someone's head off without getting arrested.
You're right. You can't do any of those things anymore.
Because of you.
I can't because of you.
Just say it.
-This was a damn mistake. -You're right.
This was a mistake.
(GLASS SHATTERS)
Get out of my head!
I see what you're doing.
This isn't about me being alone.
This is about you being alone.
Without me, without Elena.
Awfully selfish of you, brother.
Even if you and Elena defy every single statistic
and stay in love every hour of every day,
you still can't control life or death.
She's human. She could die at any moment.
What is your life gonna look like without her?
(MICROWAVE HUMMING)
(MICROWAVE BEEPING)
MAN (ON TV): I just love prosciutto and melon. It couldn't be any more simple.
I do have my own kind of way
of serving it that is a little nontraditional,
but as long as no one tells,
I won't be in trouble.
What I'm gonna do is clean out the center of that melon. It is so easy...
So you make us drift apart.
Break us up and then kill her.
-That's harsh, brother. -She wanted me to be harsh.
This was her idea too?
Well, that's funny.
Because the two people closest to me are the two most sadistic.
If you do this, Damon, you're human forever.
No matter what happens, there's no going back.
What do you think I should do?
That's the thing. I can't tell you.
Elena can't tell you.
You can't do this for me or for her.
You have to want to be human for yourself.
-Champagne? -Oh, yes.
Oh, excuse me. They need some more drinks over there. Thank you.
-Hey, where's Jo? Is she... -She's fine. They discharged her.
There's a back entrance she can use.
-It avoids being seen. -Okay. I'll tell her.
-Great. Hmm? -Stefan.
(GASPS)
I'm gonna go wait for Jo.
Okay.
I'm not used to scaring people away.
People are uncomfortable around Salvatores in tuxes.
It stirs...
-...feelings. -STEFAN: Uh-oh.
Elena's human again. Am I sensing another brother swap?
(LAUGHS)
Is he with you?
No, he needed some time to think.
That sounds very ominous.
You don't want him to take it, do you?
Oh, it's not up to me.
Stefan, I'm not him. You can tell me how you really feel.
Look, of course I don't want him to take it. He's my brother.
The thought of losing him is...
Yeah, I know.
So, what do you think he's gonna do?
Well, you never knew Damon as a human.
He was aimless. Always searching for something more.
Sweet and earnest. To a fault.
But never strong.
(BALL BOUNCING)
STEFAN: That came later. When he found himself.
When he truly became Damon.
He loves being a vampire.
And I just don't think he'll ever give that up.
She's gonna kill us.
The point is so we were in control of her.
Not Lily. Caroline. The wedding starts in an hour.
All we have to do is knock her ass out and drag her to the boiler room.
Thirty minutes, tops.
Bonnie.
Enzo must have let her out.
We have to warn everyone.
(MATT GASPING)
-Matt? -I...
-What's wrong? -I can't breathe.
-It's like someone's crushing my throat. -Just hang on. I'll...
(GASPING)
Matt!
LILY: Tea, please.
Earl Grey.
To what do I owe the pleasure?
I heard you tried to bring me something called an MP3 player.
I'm not entirely sure what that is, but still, I wanted to thank you.
And they let you out of your cell to do this?
Of course not, but I'm resourceful.
Should I be concerned
-about an imminent Ripper binge? -LILY: Actually, no.
You shouldn't.
I was a Ripper because I lost my family.
But today I'm getting them back.
(CELL PHONE BUZZING)
If you're trying to organize a rendezvous...
ALARIC: (OVER PHONE) Don't worry. I'm not.
I just need help with my vows.
What rhymes with "battlefield clamp"?
-Divorce. -(CHUCKLES)
So how are yours coming?
Stop fishing for spoilers.
You know, this place is crawling with Gemini.
Who knew there were so many of you?
Well, there's not much to do in the coven other than procreate.
-You haven't seen my dad, have you? -No, actually.
But it's big of you to invite your attempted murderer.
He gives really good gifts.
Oh, and never say "big of you" to a pregnant woman.
(CHUCKLES)
I hate that I can't see you right now.
I love that you hate it.
-I'll see you soon. -Bye.
Maybe I should just, uh, leave my gift and go, then?
Dad. What are you doing back here?
You're my daughter.
And I, um... (CLEARS THROAT)
I don't expect you to say yes,
but if I didn't at least ask to walk you down the aisle,
I couldn't live with myself.
You're avoiding me.
What? No, I'm not avoiding you.
I'm trying to organize this whole circus here.
Did you see where they put the bar?
Caroline...
...can we talk?
STEFAN: All right, just say it. I'm wrong.
I'm making this about me. I'm being selfish.
CAROLINE: Sorry.
Not wanting to lose your brother is pretty low on the selfish scale.
Now, forcing someone to turn off their humanity,
on the other hand, that...
Mmm. Yeah, that's, uh... That's way up there.
CAROLINE: Yeah.
Do you hate me?
No, of course I don't hate you.
Doesn't mean that I don't hate the way you handled things.
Yeah, well, that makes two of us.
I made a list...
...of, um, all the things that I've done since I fell for you.
It started last summer, when you moved away.
I started obsessing over where you were,
wondering why you weren't returning my calls.
I told you I hated you when I felt ignored,
missed my mom's final moments because I was kissing you.
-And then she died. -Caroline...
And all I needed was for you to tell me that you felt something for me...
...and you didn't.
And it affected me
so deeply that I did the worst possible thing a vampire can do.
I turned off my humanity.
And when I thought I couldn't do anything else,
I got you to turn off yours.
Well, I forgive you.
Yeah, but that's the point, Stefan.
The old Caroline wouldn't have forgiven me.
She would've smacked me and said, "What the hell are you doing?"
I hate the way that this has made me feel.
You're a control freak who's lost control.
I feel the same way when I'm around you.
That's what falling for somebody is.
It's being vulnerable.
It's...
...giving up control.
CAROLINE: I know.
But where I'm at right now in my life,
with the guilt and the grief, control is all I have.
And I don't think that I can give that up.
Hi.
Isn't a bridesmaid's dress supposed to make you look like a freak of nature?
(CHUCKLES)
-Jo went easy on me. -Hmm.
I talked to Stefan.
He did not go easy on me.
Apparently that's your fault.
His argument was pretty convincing.
I'd made up my mind.
But then...
You ruined my ball.
You're lucky I didn't ruin your face.
Go inside, get the car keys from your mommy. I'm going to a wedding.
On second thought...
-Don't forget the... -The leftovers.
I know. You told me three times.
Forty years, and every time,
"Did you remember the leftovers?"
Like I'm getting senile or something. Oh.
(WOMAN CHUCKLES)
(BOTH CHUCKLING)
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)
I'm taking it.
I've been a vampire for a long time, Elena.
And it's been a blast.
But I would give it up in a second to be your husband,
your partner,
the father of your kids.
You can't take it just for me.
That's what you and Stefan keep saying, but you're wrong. I can.
I can take it for us.
Okay? Because even if it doesn't work,
even if it all goes to hell, even if I'm miserable and alone,
the smallest chance at the perfect life with you
is infinitely better than an immortal one without you.
And I know this, Elena. I love you.
And I will love you until I take my last breath on this Earth.
CAROLINE: Where the hell are you?
Bonnie and Matt are MIA, and now you and Damon?
What is wrong with you? This is a wedding!
This is supposed to be Jo's magical night, and you are ruining it.
We're starting without you.
(JO LAUGHING)
This is not funny.
It's kind of funny.
I don't wanna tell you how to run a wedding...
We're not waiting anymore. Tell them to cue the music.
(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING IN DISTANCE)
Um...
I think it's starting.
What? No. What time is it?
Oh, my God.
No, no, no. We're so late.
-You couldn't keep your paws off of me. -Damon.
Put your tux back on.
I am. I am. (CHUCKLES)
I hope it was worth it.
-Actually... -Ugh, gross. Not the time.
Have you seen Bonnie or Matt?
-They're not here yet? -Just go.
-Go, go, go. -Okay.
(GRUNTS)
Bonnie?
Hey.
It was...
And so?
DAMON: Looks like I'm joining the human club.
It's a big night for both of us.
-I'm proud of you. -You too, buddy.
Welcome, family and friends, on this magical evening,
to the wedding of Alaric Saltzman and Josette Laughlin.
Josette and Alaric have prepared their own vows.
This can't be it. No one's here.
Perhaps your companions gave you the wrong address.
They're not the ones who gave me the address.
Then who did?
ALARIC: Neither one of us should be here right now.
We've spent our lives dodging fate
and beating the odds.
But because we did,
I got to meet you,
the most beautiful,
hilarious and intimidatingly brilliant woman
I have ever known.
You inspire me.
You've shown me that happiness
is actually something that I can have in my life.
And so...
I promise to be with you and love you
and to dodge fate with you
for the rest of our lives.
REVEREND: Josette?
Oh, God.
That's a tough act to follow.
(ALL LAUGH)
Here goes.
Alaric Saltzman,
you are...
(FLESH TEARING)
Jo? What is it?
Jo... Oh, my God.
Jo?
Oh, God, no.
-(JO SCREAMING) -No, no, no.
(ELENA GASPS)
Oh, my God! No, no, no. Jo.
I was gonna wait till the "death do us part" bit,
but it seemed a little on the nose.
No.
Am I right?
-(HIGH-PITCHED RINGING) -(CROWD SCREAMING)
Miss me?
No?
Oh, well. CHED RINGING) -(CROWD SCREAMING)
