Gilbert Residence
John is in the kitchen, and as he closes the refrigerator door, he sees Isabela standing there, posing as Nevaeh.
John startled,"You scared me."
Isabela:"Sorry."
John:"Is Jenna home?"
Isabela:"She had to meet the the fire chief about the building. She doesn't know the truth. They've covered it up."
John:"Yeah I know. How's Jeremy?"
Isabela:"Holed up in his room."
Upstairs, Jeremy is in his bed. He's unconscious after taking all those pills.
Nevaeh was upstairs in her bedroom, on the phone with Stefan.
Nevaeh:"Yeah, sorry, I must have forgot my phone on the charger, when I left for the parade."
Stefan:"It's okay, babe. As long as you called me."
Isabela and John are still in the kitchen.
John:"Can I help?"
Isabela looks down at John's ring.
Nevaeh was sitting on her bed, still in the phone with Stefan.
Stefan:"Do you want me to come pick you up?"
Nevaeh:"I'm just gonna check on Jeremy before I go to the hospital, can you meet me there?"
Stefan:"You bet."
Nevaeh:"Okay, I love you."
Stefan:"I love you." She hangs up the phone.
Isabela grabs a knife and cuts off John's fingers, including his ring. Then she pushes John against the sink.
John was horrified,"Isabela?!"
Isabela reveals her vampire face,"Hello, John. Goodbye, John."
Nevaeh walked out of her room and walked to Jeremy's bedroom. She knocked on his door.
Nevaeh:"Jeremy? Are you up?"
She hears a noise in the kitchen so she decided to go check it out.
She enters the kitchen to see John on the floor, bleeding badly.
Nevaeh:"Dad?!"
John would be smiling but he's in so much pain right now.
She rushes over to him and tries to stop the bleeding. She grabs the phone and calls 911.
Receiver:"911, what's your emergency?"
Nevaeh was panicking,"Hi, I—I need an ambulance to 2104 Maple Street."
John sees Isabela watching; whispering,"Behind you."
Nevaeh:"What?"
John:"Behind you!"
Nevaeh turns around and gasps but she's sees no one there. She grabs the bloody knife and cautiously approaches the hallway.
Isabela speeds around, frightening Nevaeh, before she runs out of the door. Nevaeh is terrified, and then she remembers Jeremy.
Nevaeh:"Jeremy!" She races up the stairs to his room. "Jeremy! Jeremy!" She finds him unconscious on his bed. "Please, Jeremy, wake up!"
Nevaeh shakes Jeremy frantically and he wakes up.
John is taken away in the ambulance. Stefan arrives at the house. The officer tries to keep Stefan from entering.
Nevaeh:"He's okay."
Stefan follows Nevaeh upstairs to Jeremy's room.
Stefan:"What happened?"
Nevaeh:"He said that Anna gave him her blood and then he took these pills and now...I mean he looks fine but then again so do you. So, I just...I don't know."
Stefan takes Jeremy's face in his hands and examines his eyes.
Stefan:"Come here. Look at me. Shh."
Jeremy:"I'm fine, okay. I feel exactly the same."
Nevaeh:"Should I call a paramedic up here? What should I do?"
Stefan looks at Jeremy's eyes,"No, he's fine."
Jeremy:"You mean I'm not a vampire? Damn it!"
Nevaeh:"Don't say that Jeremy! Jer, why would you say that?"
Jeremy:"Did you hear about Anna, what happened to her tonight? She's dead."
Stefan:"Jeremy, Jeremy. Come here, sit down."
Stefan pushes Jeremy back down on the bed. He grabs his face in his hands and makes him look at him.
Stefan:"I am very sorry about Anna, but it's very important that you listen to me right now. With every passing moment, Anna's blood is leaving your system. If you try to kill yourself right now, you could really die."
Jeremy looks away.
Stefan:"Hey!" He slaps him. "Do you understand me?!"
Nevaeh:"Stefan..."
Jeremy:"Yeah, I understand."
Stefan:"Good."
Stefan gets up and stands next to Nevaeh.
Nevaeh:"What about the pills that he took?"
Stefan:"He didn't take enough to die so Anna's blood healed him of that."
A policeman knocks on the doorframe of Jeremy's room.
Policeman:"Miss Gilbert?"
Nevaeh:"I'll be right there."
Stefan:"You need to be at the hospital."
Nevaeh:"But..."
Stefan:"No, no, no, I'll stay here with Jeremy."
Jeremy:"I don't need a babysitter."
Nevaeh:"Yes, you do."
