The brothers went to the annual founders’ party, where Damon got drugged by Stefan in The Vampire Diaries Season 1 Episode 4. Although they have their identities mostly concealed, there are some in the town who are on to them and know that the vampires must be back.
Stefan knows exactly what will happen to his brother if he doesn’t feed on blood. He’ll become a living corpse. That’s just fine with Stefan. In 50 years, they can reevaluate.
Elena catches Vicki coming out of the bathroom. Aunt Jenna is unconcerned. Jeremy could be doing worse things. He normally is.
Caroline’s trying to recall what happened, but there are holes in her memory lately.
Stefan shows up at school. He tells Elena he was dealing with Damon. For 4 days.
Although Elena’s started to turn on Stefan, which I get the sense is going to be a recurring theme for quite some time, Matt’s come around and is reluctantly supporting him. Showing up an hour late because he’s dealing with Zach almost getting killed by Damon is not making a case for Stefan, nor is his continued vagueness. Their discussion is stopped by a guy who knows him and is amazed he hasn’t aged a day.
The sheriff is having no luck tracking down the vampires. They’re assuming that they’re looking for somebody who only comes out at night. That would be a bad assumption.
Stefan agrees to share some with Elena, starting with the history of Katherine.
Jeremy feels like he and Vicki are always getting high. Pretty much because they are. She’s enjoying it, so his protests fall on deaf ears.
When she slices her finger while cooking, Elena believes her paranoia has turned into hallucinations. What’s wrong with his face? Whatever it is, she’ll have to wait to find out, probably until the end of the season.
Damon’s only hope is that he will be able to control Caroline, presumably using the necklace he was going to give her, which she has since found and decided to wear. That crow will be following her around for a while.
At the car wash, Bonnie gets upset and proceeds to make a hose go out of control.
Jenna’s surprised to be having a good time with Logan, the guy who’s a news reporter by day and a vampire hunter by night.
Elena asks the guy from last night where he saw Stefan before. She wouldn’t know. It was years ago. When was this anyway? Early June. 1953.
Since they can’t hang out in his room all the time, Vicki takes Jeremy to her other favorite party place. The cemetery.
Elena wants a favor from Logan. She needs access to old news stories from the 1950s. It’s for a way past due report.
Caroline shows up at Damon’s cell. He’d like her to let him out, but she remembers that he bit her. Regardless, she’s gonna open the door. Zach shows up just in time get his neck snapped and have the door busted open. It’s good for Caroline that Damon does not have his ring because it means he cannot chase her out into the sun.
Bonnie’s powers are starting to get a little bit more impressive. When she gets upset, she starts a fire, one which lights a car in a blaze. Stefan saw, and he’s not having much difficulty believing it, but nobody else knows.
Elena shows up at the news station to look for an incident from 1953 at the old Salvatore boarding house. Logan’s happy to help, as long as he gets a good word in with Jenna. Matt warns Stefan that she won’t stop until she figures it out because she’s big on trust. Her search reveals a news clip with Stefan lurking in the background. If it’s not him, it probably should be.
Jeremy and Vicki’s visit to the cemetery turns out surprisingly less joyful than they had anticipated. He should go home instead of making her feel like crap by not letting her take prescription pills from his house.
When he gets his chance alone in Jeremy’s room, Logan does some searching and locates the watch.
Vicki’s wasting her life in the cemetery when she runs into a guy who doesn’t look good. He’ll be just fine when he bites her. She might want to look into getting used to that cemetery.
Elena has just one question for Stefan. What are you?
