When Damon got home Stefan was rummaging through cabinets looking for something.

Damon: "What the hell is going on Stefan?"

Stefan: "I can't tell you."

Damon: "I know we aren't the best of brothers but if you're in some sort of trouble with the originals you can tell me."

Stefan was still looking for something: "It isn't trouble, I just can't tell anyone."

Damon grabbed him by the arm: "Tell me."

Stefan shook his arm free: "Don't touch me ever again."

Damon was getting frustrated: "Since when do you trust the guy that made you shut off your emotions more than your own brother?"

Stefan had no witty comeback or anything to say for that matter: "There's a cure."

Damon: "For what?"

Stefan: "Immortality."

Damon: "You're talking about vampireism?"

Stefan: "Yes."

Damon: "So I could use this cure and be human again?"

Stefan: "If this so called 'cure' is even real, then yes."

Damon: "You're doing this for Elena aren't you? She loved you when she was a human but now that she is a vampire she isn't in love with you."

Stefan had no words and he continued to ransack the cabinets.

Damon: "Just to let you know, I'm fine with her either way brother."

Stefan slammed the cabinet shut and began to raise his voice: "I never said I wasn't fine with her."

Damon: "Then why else are you going to these lengths to find something that may or may not exists?"

Stefan found a wrinkled, discolored paper: "I have to go."

Stefan started to walk out and Damon followed: "Listen Damon, if you know what's good for you, you won't follow me."

Damon looked at his brother, someone he had known for years, and at this moment, he couldn't recognize him.

Stefan got to Klaus' door and was about to knock when Rebekah opened the door.

Rebekah: "Ah Stefan, we've been expecting you."

Stefan: "I have the paper, the one Klaus asked for."

Rebekah: "Grand, hand it to me and you can get back to your merry life with Elena."

Klaus: "Ah I don't think that he will be returning to his precious Elena, for when I went to find him at her house I was surprised by Damon being there."

Stefan: "What."

Klaus smiled: "I see I'm not the only surprised one?"

Stefan: "Elena can have who ever she wants. We aren't together anymore."

Rebekah: "Has she reached her breaking point yet cause I have this bet going with, well, Kol to see how long she lasts before she kills herself."

Kol walked into the doorway where Stefan could see him: "I thought the hunters' curse would have sent her overboard but I guess not. I, on the other hand, wouldn't fancy the hunters' curse."

Klaus: "Didn't Damon save her from that?"

Stefan: "When did Kol become a part of this?"

Kol: "When I heard that my dumb, foolish siblings wanted to raise Silas from the dead to get the cure I knew I had to stop them. And I will.

Klaus and Rebekah looked at each other and then at Kol in complete shock.

Stefan: "And I see we are all surprised by this announcement."
