Stefan: You've wanted Klaus dead for five hundred years. Why would you risk all that just to save Damon's life?
Katherine: I wasn't just trying to save Damon's life, Stefan. I was trying to save yours. Your humanity. Let's just say I like the old you better.
Damon: (after Elena daggers Rebekah) In the back. Harsh.
Elena: It had to be done. Rebekah was never going to be completely on our side.
Damon: Hey, I'm not judging you. It's very...Katherine of you.
Elena: Not the way to make me feel better about myself, Damon.
Damon: It was a compliment...sort of.
Elena: Hey, listen to me. We'll survive this. We always survive. Trust me.
Damon: We're never getting Stefan back. You know that, don't you?
Elena: Then we'll let him go. Okay? We'll have to let him go.
Stefan: Come on, Katherine, you don't care about anybody but yourself, you never have.
Katherine: You and I both know that that is not true. I loved you. I loved Damon, too. Humanity is a vampire's greatest weakness. No matter how easy it is to turn it off, it keeps trying to fight its way back in. Sometimes I let it.
Michael: Where's my dagger?
Rebekah: Elena has it. So you can forget your plans to use it on me.
Michael: You were never the one I was after.
Rebekah: Nik was my family. If you were after him, you were after me.
Mikael: He blinded you, Rebekah. He killed your mother.
Rebekah: I know what he did. And he'll pay for it with his life. But Nik was not born a killer; none of us were. You did this to us when you turned us into vampires. You destroyed our family. Not him.
Mikael: (to Klaus) The big bad wolf, you haven't changed. Still hiding behind your play things, like a coward.
Stefan: I'm a hundred and sixty-two years old and I'm going to a homecoming dance. I need better ties.
Elena: You could not go.
Stefan: I'm compelled to protect you, and if I look at your track record at high school dances, it's pretty tragic. With my luck, you'll go ahead and get yourself murdered by the homecoming queen.
