Elena is waking up. Rose and Trevor are upstairs. They're talking. Rose said ''How's the girl?'' Trevor sighed "Still passed out." Rose said softly "You didn't touch her, did you?" Trevor pouted "Give me some credit. So, you called him?" Rose shook her head "No, I called one of his contacts. You know how this works." Trevor grunted "Did you or did you not get the message to Elijah?" Rose said "They say he got it." Trevor looked at her "Wonderful and what?" Elena gets up and walks upstairs. She's listening in on their conversation. Rose said "So that's it Trevor. He either got it or he didn't. We just have to wait."
Trevor started to pace and freak out "Look, it's not too late. We can leave it here. We don't have to go through with this." Rose said harshly "I'm sick of running!" Trevor looked at her scared "Yeah? Well, running keeps us from dying." Rose walked over to Trevor and touched his cheek and smiled "Elijah's old school. If he accepts our deal, we're free." Elena accidentally makes one of the boards squeak. Rose sees her. Rose growled "You! There's nothing around here for miles. If you think you're getting out of this house, you're tragically wrong. Understand?" Elena frowned softly "Who's Elijah?" Rose said "He's your worst nightmare."
With Jeremy
Jeremy is in his bedroom with Bonnie. He's searching for the place on his cell phone. Bonnie asked "Did Alaric just left with Jenna?" Jeremy nodded "He's getting her out of the house for a while so she doesn't ask questions about Elena. Look. I pulled this up based on that spot on the map." He shows her his phone. He found a house in the middle of nowhere Jeremy said "They have to be there there's nothing for miles except for this old house." Bonnie asked "Did you send it to Stefan?" Jeremy groaned "Yeah. I hate sitting here, waiting like this." Bonnie touched his hand "Hey, she's gonna be fine."Jeremy frowned "You don't know that" Bonnie agreed "No I don't."
She gets up and rushes over to her handbag. She takes the grimoire and sits on Jeremy's bed with him. Jeremy asked "What are you doing?" Bonnie said quickly "There's something else I want to try." Jeremy said confused "I don't get it." Bonnie said "I need a candle. Grab Elena's hairbrush." Jeremy nodded "Okay, yeah." Bonnie takes a paper and writes something on it beginning with "Stefan an...". Jeremy grabs Elena's hairbrush and a candle. Jeremy asked "What's all this stuff for?" Bonnie looked at Jeremy "I know it's crazy but I might be able to get her a message." She crumples the paper and holds it in her hand above the candle and opens it. She closes her eyes to cast the spell and her nose begins to bleed in the middle of the spell. Jeremy notices the bleeding and is alarmed. Jeremy loudly called her "Bonnie? Bonnie! Bonnie! Bonnie!" The paper is burning Jeremy's tries to stop her but she keeps going. The paper finally disappears. Jeremy asked "Bonnie are you Okay?" She smiles and her eyes close and she falls backwards unconscious on Jeremy's bed. Jeremy tries to rouse her by shaking her Jeremy yelled "Bonnie! Bonnie! Bonnie!"
With Elena
Rose is in a room, alone. Elena joins her Elena asked "Why am I here?" Rose rolled her eyes "You keep asking me these questions like I'm gonna answer them." Elena asked "Why won't you?" Rose sighed "That's another one." Elena starts getting frustrated "You got me, okay? It's not like I can go anywhere. The least you can do is tell me what you want with me." Rose shrugged "I personally want nothing; I'm just a delivery service." Elena said "Delivery to who? Elijah?"Rose sings "Two points to the little eavesdropper." Elena asked "Well who is he? Is he a vampire?" Rose nods "He's one of the vampires, the originals" Elena asked "What do you mean the originals?" Rose sighed "Again with the questions. Haven't the Salvatores been teaching you your vampire history?" Elena asked "So you know Stefan and Damon?" Rose was getting tired of this "I know of them. A hundred years back, a friend of mine tried to set me up with Stefan. She said he was one of the good ones. I'm more of a sucker for the bad boys though but I digress."
Elena asked again ''Who are the originals?" Rose growled "Trevor and I have been running for 500 years. We're tired, we want it over. We're using you to negotiate ourselves out of an old mess." Elena asked "But why me?" Rose said "Because you're a Petrova Doppelgänger. You're the key to breaking the curse." Elena said "The curse? The sun and the moon curse? What do you mean I'm the key? The moonstone is what breaks the curse. Rose said "No, the moonstone is what binds the curse. The sacrifice is what breaks it." Elena asked "The sacrifice?" Rose said "The blood of the doppelgänger. You're the doppelgänger. Which means, in order to break the curse you're the one who has to die."
Rose and Elena are still talking. Trevor walks into the room Elena said "Tell me more." Trevor asked and grinned "Captivity has made her pushy, eh? What do you want to know doppelicious?" Elena asked "Who were you running from?" Trevor said "The originals." Elena sighed "Yeah, she said that. What does that mean?" Trevor said "The first family, of vampires from the old world. Rose and I pissed them off." Rose looked at him putting her hand on her hips "Mm-hmm." Trevor grinned at her "Correction, I pissed them off, Rose had my back and for over half a millennium, they wanted us dead." Elena asked "What did you do?" Rose answered "He made the same mistake countless others did: he trusted Katerina Petrova." Elena breathed "Katherine." Rose said "The one and only, the first Petrova Doppelgänger." Trevor said "I helped her escape her fate and now I've, sorry, we've been marked ever since." Rose said "Which is why we're not gonna make the same mistake again." Elena sits on the couch. She finds the handwritten paper Bonnie sent her. It reads: "Stefan and Damon are coming for you. -B"
Trevor enters the room with Rose and said softly "He's here! This was a mistake." Rose grabbed "No, I told you I would get us out of this. You have to trust me." Trevor whimpered "No! He wants me dead, Rose!" Rose said "I'm sure he wants her more." Trevor looked around for an escape but it was light outside "I can't do this. You give her to him, he'll have mercy on you but I need to get out of here." Rose grabbed his cheeks "Hey! What are we?" Trevor nodded "We're family, forever." Someone knocks on the door. Elena said "You're scared."
Rose hissed "Stay here with her and don't make a sound." She leaves to open the door. Elijah opens the door. She walks in front of him Elijah said "Ah Rose-Marie. Is there somewhere we can talk?" Rose smiled "Yes, in here. You have to forgive the house." Elijah smirked "Oh, no, what's a little dirt? I completely understand. So tell me, what is it that gives you the courage to call me?" Rose said "I wanted my freedom. I'm tired of running. You in a position to grant me that?" Elijah nodded "I have complete authority to grant pardon to you and your little pet. What is his name these days? Trevor. If I so see fit." Rose said "Katerina Petrova?"
Elijah hummed "I'm listening." Rose said "She didn't burn in the church in 1864." Elijah nodded "Continue." Rose said "She survived" Elijah asked "Where is she?" Rose said shocked "You don't seem surprised by this." Elijah smirked "Oh, when you called and invited me into this armpit of civilization, which is a mere three hours from the town we know as Mystic Falls, I surmised it had everything to do with Katerina. Do you have her in your possession?"
Rose shook her head "No, but I have better. I have her doppelgänger." Elijah's smirk dropped "That's impossible, her family line ended with her. I know that for fact." Rose said "The facts are wrong." Elijah said "Well, show her to me." Rose nodded but said "Elijah, you are a man of honor, you should be trusted but I want to hear you say it again." Elijah said "You have my word that I will pardon you." Rose nodded "Follow me." He follows her. They arrive at the main room. Elena hears them. She's scared and turns her head. Elijah looks at her. He's surprised and rushes over to her. He looks at her and smells her neck. Elijah hummed amazed "She's Human. It's impossible hello there".
