Damon: How you doing back there? Alaric: Leave her alone. Damon: You know, this whole pretending to hate me thing is getting a little silly. Alaric: I don’t think she’s pretending.. You did kill her brother.. Damon: There is a huge asterisk next to that statement.. He came back to life. Elena: Yeah. Thanks to a ring that you didn’t know he was wearing. Damon: Why are you so sure I didn’t know? Elena: Did you? Damon: Yes! Elena: You’re lying Damon: Elena, I saw the ring. Big tacky thing. . It’s hard to miss.
Damon: Pull it out. I can’t reach it, Elena. Just pull the damn thing out. It hurts. Damon: That bitch is dead! Elena: Uh, you’re not going to kill her Damon: Watch me! Elena: You touch her and i swear I will never speak to you again Damon: What makes you think that has any power over me? ‘Cause i took an arrow in the back for you? You are severely overstimating yourself Elena: Right. I forgot that I was speaking to a psychotic mind who snaps and kills people impulsively. Fine. Go ahead. Do whatever you want. Damon: You’re trying to manipulate me Elena: If by “manipulate” you mean the truth, ok. Guilty. OK!
