We open with Bonnie (Kat Graham) at the haunted house to find four coffins there, which obviously Stefan (Paul Wesley) has hidden there. But she's dreaming. Elena (Nina Dobrev) is followed by a man when she's out jogging and bumps into her from the other end of the street. She tells Bonnie she's becoming paranoid and asks Bonnie if it's a "witch dream" she had.
Stefan betrayed them and Damon (Ian Somerhalder) is drinking at the bar (so what else is new, "brunch in a bottle,") wanting Alaric (Matt Davis) to join him. Damon can drink but then "somebody's getting naked." Ooh Damon, not again. Alaric is waiting for Jeremy (Steven R McQueen) who failed his midterm. He's also been fired. Tyler (Michael Trevino) and Jeremy bond, kind of out shooting cans in the woods with arrows. Alaric is Jeremy's guardian and Tyler dares Jeremy to shoot an arrow at him, which he catches.
Elena describes Jeremy as moody and not talking to anyone. You'd be mistaken for thinking she was describing Damon, who tells her Jeremy still has her. Damon doesn't have any "attractive look." Klaus (Joseph Morgan) shows up along with Tony, (Zane Stephens) the man Elena saw whilst jogging. Rebekah (Claire Holt) is missing and he breaks the news about staying in mystic Falls. Elena says his family is his and Stefan's problem and not hers.
Bonnie goes to the house and finds it empty, except Stefan arrives too. He followed her here and has Klaus's family. He needs to keep them hidden as his family is his weakness. Such as it is for Stefan and Damon and Elena and her family too, as well as her friends. Elena knows Tyler is dangerous.
Damon drinks again and senses Klaus behind him. Damon never misses the chance to drink to an epic failure of a plan. Damon and Klaus appear to bond over their respective siblings, not that they're best buds or anything. Alaric asks Tyler what the difference is between sired and compelled. Being sired means having the faith to do something cos it's right. Tyler doesn't serve Klaus and Tyler is indebted to him for freeing him from a curse. He'd follow him blindly, hey this was my line, then Elena talks about his blind faith, as does Jeremy. Tyler has the ability to make his own decisions, that's what he thinks.
Damon: "bond over the mutual loathing of my brother." Damon doesn't work for him and Klaus knows he's been drinking vervain so he can't compel him so Klaus needs a demo of violence to drive the point home, no pun. He calls Jeremy. Alaric comments on Tyler's weird cult logic after his explanation of being sired and Jeremy has left his ring behind and stands in the middle of the road, leaving Alaric to save him from an SUV, driven by Tony. Klaus has a new compulsion. Tyler tells Klaus he thought he was only sending a message and didn't think he'd kill anyone. Klaus wants him to get over his guilty conscience. Not another one.
Tyler took Jeremy's bracelet and Damon tells Elena Klaus is sending them a message. Jeremy wants to leave town. Elena decides to give Klaus Rebekah in return for Jeremy's life but Damon warns she'll come after Elena. Elena tells Bonnie about the coffins and her dreams and Damon and Elena go to the haunted house. Damon thinks witches are fickle, Klaus said that about Rebekah. Damon burns once he steps inside the house, so from outside he listens to Stefan and Elena. Stefan refuses to give Klaus anything and her family is not his problem. Elena slaps him, like that'll hurt. That's what Elena said to Klaus, about his family being Klaus's problem.
What Damon puts himself through to see Stefan as he goes back into the house. Damon doesn't care about the coffins and they fight outside. Damon stakes him as payback for messing up his plan. Stefan did it to save Damon from Klaus's hybrids if the plan had worked. Damon: "Stop saving me." Tyler didn't think Klaus would kill Jeremy cos he doesn't know Klaus at all. He's naive, even after Klaus was going to use Caroline in the ritual. Jeremy posits everytime Klaus is involved someone gets killed.
Alaric is dead again and wakes coughing up blood. Tony compels the paramedics to leave and she can use his blood to save Alaric. Jeremy turns up and shoots an arrow in his back and then hacks off his head. That's another mess for Damon to clear up no doubt. Damon asks why Stefan saved him and he doesn't reply. Damon commenting he "invented deflection." So it won't work on him. Stefan wants to use Klaus's family against him. Klaus can't live forever and there has to be another way. Damon wants in cos he's better at "cutthroat decisions." It'll be between the two of them. SO that's another plan, how long before that goes awry too.
He goes inside and shows Damon the coffins which are still there, the witch spirits are hiding them with their powers, which explains why Bonnie was dreaming about them. Dr Meredith Fell (Torrey DeVitto) wants to know Alaric's secret and wonders if he has a guardian angel or sold his soul. He replies a bit of both. Elena gives Klaus Rebeka back. Klaus tells her anyone can be next, Caroline, Bonnie or Damon, if he doesn't find his family. Stefan doesn't care about her anymore, that's what she thinks so he's Klaus's problem. Elena warns Rebekah wants Klaus dead cos she knows he killed their mother.
Alaric has Damon's blood to thank for keeping him alive. Jeremy knows things like this will always happen. Damon took care of the DB as said and Elena admits she returned Rebekah and she doesn't trust Stefan. Jeremy can't live like this, he's only 16. Klaus tells Rebekah it took a thousand years to get home and daggers her - they'll meet again one day. Is that cos sister dear will get him for killing their mother. Oh Elena had to blab. Damon has their 'talk' with Jeremy and compels him to leave town. "You have a better life."
Bonnie sees the coffins in the house but Stefan can't open them. They've been closed with a spell, so perhaps what's inside is their answer. Damon tells Elena Stefan saved his life and calls himself an idiot and shouldn't feel guilty anymore "for wanting what I want." He kisses Elena so he has something to feel guilty about. That was coming. Since Elena kissed him last season, this time he kisses her. That kiss most were expecting, it was that apparent, others didn't want it cos Elena belongs with Stefan, though she's having more doubts than usual about this now and that kiss made a lot of people jealous!! Cos Damon doesn't belong with Elena, he's mine, er, I mean ours!
Funny how Tyler was the one to tell Jeremy how to kill a hybrid, from their little tete a tete in the woods. Jeremy also invites Tyler into their home - silly boy - for dinner, thus allowing him to feed off anyone, oh you know what I mean, if the need ever arises and all that, especially since he's in league with Klaus. Rebekah can't really be dead cos he just daggers her all over and suppose she had to go cos of mommie dearest and knowing he offed her.
Damon appears to be more human than Stefan - though he doesn't like to admit it, thus he does the so very human thing and snogs Elena cos vampires don't have guilty consciences, not all of them. More importantly, yeah cos that kiss meant nothing, ha. why is Klaus so hell bent on getting the coffins back and is so protective of them? Granted his family is in there - but does that mean his entire family, including his mother cos we don't know what Klaus did with her after the killed her?
Bonnie says whatever is inside "is their answer." Anyway his mother did put a curse on him. Also the witches are helping to hide the coffins in plain sight and Bonnie hasn't mentioned she saw Klaus in her dream too, inside one of the coffins with a necklace around his neck, not too dissimilar to Elena's necklace. (No doppelganger theories please cos that'd be too obvious and too Elena/Katherine.) She could have seen Klaus inside the coffin as a foreboding of the future instead.
Klaus: "My sister is missing..."
Damon: "Cute, blonde bombshell. Psycho. Shouldn't be too hard to find." Hey, was the description necessary?
