- Webclip 1
- Damon: You okay?
- Elena: Yeah, I've just got this feeling like something bad's about to happen.
- Damon: Well, it is. You're leaving tomorrow. You're trading all this for communal showers and a meal plan.
- Elena: Can't you just be a normal boyfriend and support me as I attempt to have a normal college experience?
- Damon: I'd rather ply you with champagne, and spend the night convincing you to stay.
- Webclip 2
- Template:Jeremy: Caroline says 'Get your ass in Whitmore, Bonnie. We need you'.
- Template:Bonnie: Just tell her I'm at the Grand Canyon.
- Template:Jeremy: You realize you just postponed the inevitable, right? What happens when your dad finds out you've been dead all summer?
- Template:Bonnie: How many postcards have I sent him? How many times has he called? I've done enough, he's clearly not missing me.
- Template:Jeremy: What about Elena?
- Template:Bonnie: I just saw her at college. She's been genuinely happy. I am not taking that away from her. We're lucky, Jer. How many people die and still get to talk to their best friends?
- Template:Jeremy: How many best friends can't feel each other? I should get going. The freak who faked his own death can't also be late for Math.
Episode Quotes
- Stefan (as Narrator) : "...but our greatest threat is still out there...and he looks...just...like...me."
- Bonnie (as Narrator) : "If Katherine Pierce ingesting the only cure on this Earth and having to live as a Human isn't justice...I don't know what is."
- Jeremy (to Bonnie) : "It's bad enough you're dead, now you're a control freak?"
- Damon (to Elena) : "You're leaving! You're going to college, you're going to drink cheap beer and you're going to protest about things you don't care about."
- Elena (to Caroline) : "To us...and college and being functional Vampires."
- Jeremy (to Bonnie) : "I should get going. The freak who faked his own death, can't also be late for math."

- Rebekah (to Matt) : "Tell him we had a threesome, he'll understand."
- Caroline (to Elena about Megan) : "She has an entire drawer dedicated to organic linen."
- (Katherine is drinking Damon's alcohol)
- Katherine: "You're gonna have to cut me off soon. My tolerance is a joke now. It's just so...glorious."
- Damon: "You're miserable."
- Katherine: "Please. I'm Katherine Pierce. I'm a survivor."
- Damon: You're a liar. Your hair is messed up, your nails are chipped. You're a sad, miserable human being and you want me to turn you. So, here. (Damon bites his wrist and offers it to Katherine) Go ahead. Drink up. I'll kill you, you'll bite the mailman, and you'll be a vampire again. Go ahead. Come on."
- Katherine: "I can't, okay? No one's ever taken the cure before. If I die, there's a good chance I may never wake up."
- Damon: "And that would be tragic."
- Katherine: "And deep down in that mushy, gushy Elena-loving heart, there's a part of you that doesn't want me to die."
- Damon: "If I have to hear the word "doppelgänger" one more time, I think I'm gonna actually have to learn how to spell it."
- Silas: "You say you don't believe me, and yet you're mind is spinning at the possibility."
- Damon: "A, get out of my head; B, I think I'd know if my little brother had an evil twin."
- Silas: "Oh, we're not twins. See, when I became truly immortal, nature retaliated by creating a version of me that was kill-able. It's called a shadow self."
- Damon: "Well, whatever you are, your plan didn't work. The cure's gone. Now what do you want with Katherine?"
- Silas: "I could tell you, but wouldn't be so much more fun if it were a surprise?"
- Damon: "You're not getting her."
- Silas: "Damon, how well do you know your brother? Do you really think he would leave town for three months without so much as a phone call so you could live happily ever after with the love of his life? Or did you just delude yourself into thinking it would be that easy?"
- Damon: "Where's Stefan?"
- Silas: "He's suffering, like I suffered. So, call the hunter, bring me Katherine, and then I will tell you where your little brother is."
- Damon: "One day. One day where you don't screw it up."
- Jeremy: "Leave me alone, Damon."
- Damon: "You're lucky you didn't put one of those idiots in ICU."
- Jeremy: "Says the guy that once killed me."
- Damon: "Yes! In the privacy of your own home. Away from prying eyes. Unlike you, who went all hunter in the middle of the hallway. You got expelled, genius."
- Jeremy: "Does that mean I don't have to go back to school?"
- Damon: "I compelled Principal Webber into a very generous 3-day suspension. Elena does not need to know about this."
