-Stefan: Hi.

-Elena: Youcould have told me.

-Stefan: Iwanted to tell you.

-Elena: Yousaid no more lies. Only the truth. I can handle the truth, Stefan. As crazy asit is, I can handle the fact that you are a vampire¹. And you have a vampirebrother. And that my best friend is a witch². I can accept the fact that theworld is much more mysterious place than I ever thought possible. But this...this lie, I can't take. What am I to you? Who am I to you?

-Stefan:You are not Katherine. You are the opposite everything that she was.

-Elena: Andwhen did you figure that out? Before you kissed me? Before we slept together?

-Stefan:Before I met you.

I was fast getting there, but not fast enough. The car was alreadysubmerged. Your dad was still... he was still conscious³. I was able to get tohim, but he wouldn't let me help him until I helped you.

 

-Elena: Ohmy god. When I woke up in the hospital, nobody could figure out how I got outof the car. They said it was a miracle⁴.

-Stefan: Iwent back for them. But it was too late. I couldn't... I couldn't save them. WhenI pulled you out, I looked at your face. You looked like Katherine. I couldn'tbelieve the resemblance⁵. After that, I spent months making sure that youweren't her. I watched you. I learned⁶ everything that I could about you. And Isaw that you were nothing like Katherine. And I wanted to leave town, but,Elena, I couldn't. I couldn't leave without knowing you. I'm so sorry that Ididn't tell you. I wanted to. But you were so sad.

-Elena: Whydo I look like her?

-Elena: Whydo I look like her, Stefan? What are you not telling me?
