Elizabeth: "Exactly what have we started here? It sounds like it's bigger then just some day walker making a baby."
Stefan: "Some day walker walked into their territory and presented a threat. Basically, we're strangers in this town and they don't know what we're up to. Now, they're all night walkers. None of them come out during the day light. They burn up like normal vampires would. So, they see me and Damon as freaks. We're not supposed to walk during the day and they want to know how it is done. We're not volunteering the information to them. So, they think they can get it out of us by force."
Damon: "Yeah and we're not the type to just sit back and let them intimidate us and threaten our well being and now, both of your well beings as well. They figure if they hurt a human under our protection it will come back on us negatively."
Jessica: "Yeah and they're messing with a hunter. So, if something happens to me, it brings the whole hunting community down on them as well."
Damon: "Which is suicide for their kind and I don't understand why they would take it there. This isn't even your fight."
Elizabeth: "Exactly. Why are they involving Stefan and Jessica? They're not even a part of any of this."
Jessica: "Leverage. Stefan and I are leverage. Damon goes to defend his brother. I go to defend my sister. It's a trap. One of us is caught by them to lure the other two in and get what they want. It's less about killing and more about the secret of day walking. They think you guys have some magic charm that they can put on and it will work for them."
Damon: "It doesn't exactly work that way. These rings don't just work on anyone's finger. They were made for us by our maker's witch. They only work on us. They won't work on other vampires. It's not like borrowing someone's bracelet. Are they really that dumb that they think they can steal our rings and use them for themselves?"
Stefan: "Obviously, they are that stupid. But, if we're leverage, then why didn't that vampire try to take us from your house before the attack?"
Jessica: "That was his way of trying. He figured if he attacked us, it would lure us out of the house and into his trap. Then we'd be taken back to his leader and lure the other two in. It was supposed to be simple. They didn't count on a fight and they didn't count on a human having the power to kill a vampire."
Elizabeth: "This whole thing is getting too complicated. We need to just leave it alone. I want to go back to working at the hospital and being a normal person again. I can't take all this drama."
