"But... if we take him in, we need to make sure that he is not a threat" Alaric said still trying to convince Landon
"His girlfriend" Landon said finally giving in
"He just gave it away like that" Hayley shook her head in disappointment.
"Cassie" Landon continued
"Last month... he was driving, there was a storm, he took a turn too fast"
"And then he started acting out"
"At first, I thought it was just grief. And then maybe... maybe drugs or something. And then he threw a -pound lawnmower feet across the yard. That was when our foster parents called in the priest" Landon said grimacing at his memories.
"I guess they thought he was possessed by the devil" Landon scoffed a little bit
Hayley grimaced too remembering her memories.
"All of that is... consistent with a newly triggered wolf. It's normal" Alaric said reassuring Landon
"Thank you for that, Landon. Oh. Everything's gonna be okay. I promise" Hope said
Alaric looked at his door and said "We're ready"
A boy slowly came into the office.
"Landon Kirby, Milton Greasley" Alaric introduced
" Come on, Dr. Saltzman," The boy now introduced as Milton said
" Right. MG. I'm sorry. Take it from a guy named Alaric. I get it" Alaric joked a little bit
Damon laughed and slapped Alaric's back while he glared at Damon.
"Landon, MG is my student aide. He's also a vampire" Alaric said turning his attention towards Landon
"Oh no please don't do the thing I think you are going to do" Caroline cried out
Bonnie nodded her head in agreement.
"Of course, he is" he scoffed
"You know, for a school with a secret to keep, you're kind of liberal with your information," Landon said fed up with the whole scenario
"Well, we don't intend for you to remember any of it" Alaric responded smugly
"You are just gonna compel him to forget," Stefan said in skepticism
Alaric nods at MG to do what he was bought in for.
"Forget everything you've seen or learned since last night. All you need to know is that your friend has found a home where he can live a better life. You'll miss him. But you know it's for the best" Mg said to Landon compelling him.
