Later, Alaric walked towards his car, and Isobel appeared...

"Hi, Ric."

"Isobel. What do you want?" He asked.

"Just cleaning up some loose ends."

"We don't have any loose ends." He tells her.

"You may not, but I do. I need to apologise to you."

"It's a little late for that." He says and tries to get into his car.

"No, not for what I've done in the past. We're beyond that. Although, I am sorry for outing you to your girlfriend. That was petty of me."

"Look, whatever jacked-up vampire amends

"Look, whatever jacked-up vampire amends... that you're trying to make with me right now, I'm not interested." He says.

"Of course not because I compelled you to let me go. I realised that I don't wanna do what I have to do... without you knowing how much I loved you. And I did. I loved you so much. And I wanted to say thank you for looking out for my daughters. He's all yours."

A guy came up behind Alaric and placed either hand on Alaric's head, and Alaric groaned and fell to the floor.

She walked away, and her eyes watered.

Damon was still standing outside the house...

"Wanna hurry it up in there?" Damon asked.

He was going to walk towards the house when the door shut on its own.

"Screw you too, Emily. You know, you're on your own in there." Damon said, walking away from the house.

Inside the house...

"Can you hand me the Grimoire?"

He signed and grabbed the Grimoire from his bag.

"Are you sure about this?" He asked.

"Are you worried about me?"

"Yeah, of course I am." He says.

She kissed him to reassure him.

"I'm sure."

She opened the Grimoire and closed her eyes, and they heard whispering nearby.

"What is that?" He asked.

"The spirits of the witches who died here. I can feel them."

"All right. What are they saying?" He asked.

"I can't... I can't tell."

She listened to the whispers.

"All right. Great." He said, crossing his arms.

She walked further into the house, and he followed.

He grabbed his bag.

"Where are you going?" He asked and followed her.

"Here."

Bonnie heard the whisper.

"This is it." Bonnie says. "Help me set the candles."

He did what she asked.

The whispering became louder.

"What the hell are they saying? What is it?" He asked, standing beside her.

"Nothing." She tells him.

The flames lit up around them.

"They're ready." She says.

Back at the Lockwood's...

"Here to accept the donation to the Miranda Sommers Gilbert scholarship fund... is her daughter, Ellie Gilbert."

Ellie signed, and everyone clapped, including Stefan, and he smiled at her.

Ellie walked over to Carol.

John watched Ellie walk over, and Isobel showed up.

"What are you doing here?" He asked.

"I'm creating a distraction."

He frowned, and she bit into his neck.
