Elena and Rebekah stop at a new place in a new car. Elena has on a red dress with a jean jacket. They look at the addresses that Katherine has lived at. Elena goes up to a girl after saying she is hungry but the girl recognizes her as Katherine. Katherine compelled the whole town. Katherine sneaks up and attacks Elena. Rebekah rescues her and does so cooly with perfect hair she slightly bounces from her shoulders. They take Katherine to a diner where they force interrogate her. Elena checks her phone and sees she has a meeting with someone named "em" at 2 pm. Elena goes to add more makeup and asks Rebekah for feedback - Rebekah says she needs more makeup to give that prostitution look. Elena practices Katherine's voice and facial expressions. She takes Katherine's watch and jewellery as well as her leather jacket and high heels. Turns out it is Elijah who is to meet with Katherine. Elijah kisses Elena passionately. Elena tries to pretend to be Katherine but Elijah figures out who she really is. Elijah is sympathetic when Elena tells him Katherine killed Jeremy. Later Katherine shows up by snapping Elena's neck and Elijah no longer trusts her. Katherine takes the group to her supposed home where they comment on the interior design - Rebekah says she has bad taste. Later Katherine picks up her package. It is the cure. To get Elijah to trust her she gives him the cure for him to keep. Rebekah witnesses the whole thing and explains casually she wants to be human again. Elijah is flabbergasted and says being human is just a romantic notion. The grass is not always greener on the other side. Elijah phones Klaus to tell him he has the cure and Klaus is excited for the reunion of their family.
