Gilbert Residence
Margaret was in her room writing in her diary.
How can a wild animal do that to Vicki. So, weird cause a animal bite doesn't look like that. I think it might be something else out there.
Margaret gets out of her room.
"Do I look adult? As in respectfully parental?" Jenna asked her nieces
"Depends on where you're going." Elena said
"Where are you going?" Margaret asked her aunt
"Jeremy's parent-teacher conference. Hair up or down?" Jenna asked again
Jenna puts her hair up.
"Sexy stewardess." Elena said
Jenna lets it down.
"Boozy housewife." Margaret said
"Up it is." Jenna said
"Where is Jeremy?" Margaret asked again
"He left early. Something about getting to wood shop early to finish a birdhouse. (Jenna pauses.) There is no wood shop, is there?" Jenna asked again
"No." Both Elena and Margaret said
"Yeah." Jenna said
High School.
In history class.
Tanner teaching the classroom.
"Originally discovered nearly 5 centuries ago, it hasn't been over Mystic Falls in over 145 years. Now, the comet will be its brightest right after dusk during tomorrow's celebration. Are we bothering you, Mr. Salvatore? Ms. Gilbert?" Tanner asked both Elena and Stefan
Elena and Stefan drop their gazes. The bell rings.
In the hallway.
Margaret puts her books in her locker. Her phone was ringing and she answers.
"Hello! (Damon doesn't answer.)Hello!" Margaret said as she hangs up
Stefan approaches to Margaret.
"You ok?" Stefan asked Margaret
"I'm fine. I just...I have to go." Margaret said
At the abandon house.
Margaret heard a creak.
"Who's there?!" Margaret asked
Margaret gets out of the house and starts running. She trips on a rock and falls down. Damon appeared and help her up. He carries her as he ran.
At the falls.
"You can put me down now." Margaret said
Damon puts Margaret down as she stands.
"You must be Margaret." Damon said
"How do you know who I am?" Margaret asked the Damon
"I'm Damon, Stefan's brother." Damon said
"At school or at the grill. He never mention that he had a brother." Margaret said
"He doesn't like me that much. We don't get along very well." Damon said
"My sister has a thing for him. As in she likes him." Margaret said
"What about you? Do you like anyone?" Damon asked Margaret
"I broke up with my boyfriend in June. Just like my sister broke up with Matt." Margaret said
"Something tells me there's more to that story." Damon said
"My birth parents didn't want me when I was 1. Miranda and Grayson took me in and raised me with Jeremy and Elena. When Miranda and Grayson died, I lost them too. Aunt Jenna is our legal guardian now. For 4 months, I've been having headaches and going to that creepy abandon house. No more headaches. (Margaret turns around and shed a tear.) I miss them." Margaret said
"I'm sorry." Damon apologize
"It's fine." Margaret said
Margaret turns around and Damon disappeared.
Salvatore Boarding house.
"Margaret's got spunk. Did you over-exert yourself today? Let me guess...hospital." Damon said
"Someone had to clean up your mess." Stefan said
"Well, were you successful? Did the powers of persuasion work? Remember, if you don't feed properly, none of those little tricks work right." Damon said
"What were you doing with Elizabeth's daughter?" Stefan asked his brother
"She think someone was stalking her." Damon said
"Stalking thing? Really? In the past. Elizabeth never told us what she is. Margaret doesn't know what she is either." Stefan said
"Of course she doesn't. Elena's going to know sooner or later. We both know the closest you'll ever get to humanity is when you rip it open and feed on it." Damon said
"What kind of game are you playing, Damon?" Stefan asked again
"Guess you'll just have to wait and see, won't you?" Damon said
Gilbert Residence.
"He's on the rebound and has raging family issues." Elena said
"Well, at least it's an ex-girlfriend. Wait till you date a guy with mommy issues or cheating issues. Or amphetamine issues." Jenna said
"I've met Damon as well. Kind of hot in a bad boy mysterious way." Margaret said
"Since when are you into bad boys?" Jenna asked her niece
"I'm not." Margaret said
Jeremy enters the house.
Next day.
Town Square.
Margaret, Elena, and Bonnie are handing out pamphlets.
"Tonight, night of the comet! Would you like a program? (Bonnie turns to Elena.) He didn't call, huh?" Bonnie asked Elena
"Or text. But I realized we never even exchanged that stuff. We've never gotten to the texting part." Elena said
"That's an important milestone in any relationship." Bonnie said
"Isn't it? The timing is wrong, anyway." Elena said
"When is it ever right?" Margaret asked her sister
"I'm not ready." Elena said
"Who is?" Margaret asked again
"At least I put myself out there." Elena said
"We're hearing is reasons why you can't." Bonnie said
Inside the Grill.
Margaret approaches to Vicki.
"How are you feeling?" Margaret asked Vicki
"You're kidding, right?" Vicki asked in confusion
"What is wrong with you? We use to be best friends." Margaret said
"And now we're not." Vicki said
"Whatever." Margaret said as she leaves
Outside of the grill.
Margaret looks at the comet. Matt approaches to her.
"Have you seen, Vicki?" Matt asked Margaret
"She's in there." Margaret said
"No she's not." Matt said
Inside of the grill.
With Matt, Margaret, Elena, Caroline, Bonnie, and Tyler. Jeremy approaches to them.
"Hey, has anyone seen Vicki?" Jeremy asked them
"You're her stalker. You tell us." Tyler said
"I can't find her." Jeremy said
"She probably found somebody else to party with. Sorry, pill pusher, I guess you've been replaced." Tyler said
"What's with the pill pusher?" Margaret asked Tyler
"Ask him." Tyler said
"You wanna do this right now?" Jeremy asked Tyler
"Are you dealing?" Elena asked her brother
"She's never gonna go for you." Tyler said
"She already did. Over and over and over again." Jeremy said
"You slept with Vicki Donovan? I mean, Vicki Donovan slept with you?" Caroline asked Jeremy
"And I didn't even have to force her into it." Jeremy said
"What the hell is he talking about, Ty?" Matt asked Tyler
"Nothing, man, just ignore him, he's a punk." Tyler said
"You know what, how about all of you shut up and help me find my sister?" Matt asked them
"We'll check the back." Bonnie said
"I'll check the square." Matt said
"I'll come with you." Margaret said
"Me too." Jeremy said
"Oh, no, no, no. You are coming with me." Elena said as she stays her brother
Street.
"Vicki!" Matt said
"Vicki!" Margaret said
"Vicki!" Matt said
"This is all my fault." Margaret said
"It's not your fault. She chooses drugs over you. Her best friend. I'm the one who takes care of her. (They looked at Stefan.) Hey." Matt said
"Hey." Stefan said
"Have you seen my sister?" Matt asked Stefan
"No, sorry." Stefan said
"She's missing." Matt said
"I'll keep an eye out for her." Stefan said as he starts to leave
"Hey. I saw you at the hospital yesterday." Matt said
"Did you?" Stefan asked Matt
"What were you doing there?" Matt asked again
"Visiting." Stefan said
"Visiting? You know, Elena and I, we've known each other for a long time. We might not be together right now, but I look out for her. And I'll always look out for her. (Margaret hears both Stefan and Matt's thoughts.)I wish I can get back with Elena but right now I have to think about my sister."Matt thinking
"I can't tell her.(Stefan thinking. Margaret stops hearing their thoughts.) Excuse me." Stefan said as he leaves
Stefan sees his brother and Vicki. He jumps on the roof.
"Not bad. Have you been eating bunnies?" Damon asked his brother
"Let her go." Stefan said
"Really? Ok." Damon said
Damon pulls Vicki to the edge of the roof.
"No!" Vicki said
"No, no, no!" Stefan said
Damon throws Vicki to Stefan.
"Ugh! Relax." Damon said
"What's happening?" Vicki asked in confusion
"I don't need her to be dead, but...you might. (Damon looked at his brother then looked at Vicki.) What attacked you the other night?" Damon asked Vicki
"I don't know. An animal." Vicki said
"Are you sure about that? Think. Think about it. Think really hard. What attacked you?" Damon asked again
"Vampire." Vicki said
"Who did this to you?" Damon asked again
"You did!" Vicki said
"Wrong!" Damon said
"Don't." Stefan begged
"It was Stefan." Damon said
"Don't." Stefan begged again
"Come here. (Damon grabs Vicki on both sides of her head. Starting to compel her.) Stefan Salvatore did this to you." Damon said
"Stefan Salvatore did this to me." Vicki said
"He's a vampire. A vicious, murderous monster." Damon said
"Please, Damon. Please don't do this." Stefan kept begging
"If you couldn't fix it before, I don't know what you can do now. (Damon pulls off Vicki's bandage and throws her to Stefan.) Ugh! Your choice of lifestyle has made you weak. A couple of vampire parlor tricks is nothing compared to the power that you could have, that you now need. But you can change that. Human blood gives you that." Damon said
"No!" Vicki said
"You have two choices. You can feed and make her forget. Or you can let her run, screaming "vampire" through the town square." Damon said
"That's what this is about? You want to expose me?" Stefan asked his brother
"No! I want you to remember who you are!" Damon said
"Why? So what, so I'll feed? So I'll kill? So I'll remember what it's like to be brothers again? You know what, let her go. Let her tell everyone that vampires have returned to Mystic Falls. Let them chain me up, and let them drive a stake through my heart, because at least I'll be free of you." Stefan said
"Huh. Wow. Come here, sweetheart." Damon said
Damon whispers something into Vicki's ear and she becomes fine.
"What happened? Where am I? Oh, I ripped my stitches open. Ugh..." Vicki said
"You Okay?" Stefan asked Vicki
"I took some pills, man. I'm good." Vicki said
Vicki leaves.
"It's good to be home. Think I might stay a while. This town could use a bit of a wake-up call, don't you think?" Damon said
"What are you up to, Damon?" Stefan asked his brother
"That's for me to know and for you to...dot dot dot." Damon said
At the Grill.
Vicki approaches to them.
"Where were you?" Matt asked his sister
"Stefan found me as I was wandering around." Vicki said
Margaret smiles and then she leaves.
Gilbert Residence
Margaret in her room writing her diary.
It happen again. Hearing voices in peoples minds. What was Stefan hiding? Is he in love with my sister? Or was he hiding something else?
