Quotes 

• Stefan Salvatore : [Caroline appears wearing gorgeous angel outfit]  Nice costume for two hours' notice.

  Caroline Forbes : Oh, thank you.

  Stefan Salvatore : You weren't, oh, I don't know, already coming to this and just, uh, forgot to invite me?

  Caroline Forbes : I didn't forget to invite you. I just felt... like a Halloween party wasn't great first-date material.

  Stefan Salvatore : So then, this isn't our first date?

  Caroline Forbes : Well, it depends. What do you think it is?

  Stefan Salvatore : [looks at her wistfully, there is that vervain barrier between them]  Torture.

• Stefan Salvatore : [as he regards dancing couple Nora and Mary Louise]  Do you think they forgot they came here to murder people?

  Caroline Forbes : Oh, no. They're just wrapped up in their own drama. You see, Nora wants some breathing room, but Mary Louise is scared if she gives it to her, then Nora's gonna leave her.

  Stefan Salvatore : You got all that from... that?

  [pointed look at the couple that is not all that happy-looking] 

  Caroline Forbes : Well, it's obvious.

  [music goes sweetly romantic, and the duo seems to be getting along very well again] 

  Caroline Forbes : Or not.

  [cocks her head as she looks at them] 

  Stefan Salvatore : You know, I'd ask you to dance, but...

  Caroline Forbes : But I'd kill you. How convenient. If only there was a person that you could talk to about it.

  Stefan Salvatore : I will ask Valerie to undo it, once Damon brings Oscar back to life.

  Caroline Forbes : So, you're not technically avoiding, you're just waiting for Damon to raise the dead. Okay.

  Stefan Salvatore : Caroline, Valerie's been dead to me for a hundred and fifty years.

  Caroline Forbes : Well, she's back now, and you're scared that you're gonna look her in the eyes, and then all of your feelings are gonna come back. You know, the infatuation and the abandonment and the whole... freaking fairy tale.

  Stefan Salvatore : That's what I'm scared of? Or that's what... you're scared of?

  Caroline Forbes : [defensively, and more than a little bit tipsy]  It can be both.

  [sighs] 

  Caroline Forbes : You know what, I am just *too* sober to be talking about this.

  [walks away] 

• Caroline Forbes : [spell was lifted, and Stefan moves in]  Wait, wait, wait! This can't happen yet!

  Stefan Salvatore : Yes, it can. That's the whole point.

  Caroline Forbes : No, I need you to know I am not some insecure, jealous girlfriend.

  Stefan Salvatore : Mm-hmm.

  Caroline Forbes : Okay?

  Stefan Salvatore : Mm-hmm.

  Caroline Forbes : I just... When I get something that I've wanted for a really long time, sometimes I do this thing...

  Stefan Salvatore : You overthink things. Yeah, I know.

  [passionate kiss] 

  Caroline Forbes : Yeah, but sometimes I say things that I don't really need to say, but I'm just scared that I'm the only one thinking them.

  Stefan Salvatore : [with male urgency]  The reason I'm not talking about Valerie is because I'm not thinking about Valerie. I'm thinking of you. And about how you and I have had more history in the last five years than most people have in a lifetime.

  [his arms close around her, he kisses her, she falls backwards onto the bed...] 

• Stefan Salvatore : Hi.

  Caroline Forbes : Hi.

  Stefan Salvatore : I brought you coffee.

  Caroline Forbes : [chuckles]  He keeps getting better.

  [accidentally touches Stefan as she takes the beverage, and her skin nearly scorches him] 

  Caroline Forbes : Sorry.

  Stefan Salvatore : [sighs]  It's okay. No contact. It's not your fault.

  Caroline Forbes : [as they walk along]  I take it your charm didn't work on getting Valerie to undo the spell?

  Stefan Salvatore : Ah. I haven't spoken to her yet.

  Caroline Forbes : Oh... So, you're avoiding?

  Stefan Salvatore : No, there's nothing to avoid.

  Caroline Forbes : Well, Stefan, she was your first love, and then she just... left you hanging. You're not the least bit curious why?

  Stefan Salvatore : She hasn't contacted me in the four months she's been back. So I'm assuming she's as over it as I am.

  Caroline Forbes : Yeah, but that is... quite an assumption. Considering that she's the reason

  [snickers:] 

  Caroline Forbes : why I literally can't touch you.

  Stefan Salvatore : Fortunately she is the Heretic that I am the least concerned about right now.

  Caroline Forbes : Oh, God. Who now?

  Stefan Salvatore : Let's just say it involves two bored mean girls on a campus full of easy targets. But, fortunately, I have come up with a genius plan to keep them occupied while Damon sorts out his Oscar problem.

  [holds up Halloween dance flyer] 

  Caroline Forbes : [smiles]  The dance?

  Stefan Salvatore : Hmm-mm.

  Caroline Forbes : Full of potential victims.

  Stefan Salvatore : And distractions. All in one place. Easy to babysit. I think the hardest part will be feigning enthusiasm.

  Caroline Forbes : Yeah, they'll never fall for it.

  [has a plan] 

  Caroline Forbes : Unless they think it's their idea.

• Mary Louise : Is this how relationships work in the modern era? Everybody's peddling their flesh like a street bazaar? Because bloody Nora seems quite interested in the browsing.

  Stefan Salvatore : You know, these days they have a wonderful thing called a... therapist.

  Mary Louise : How old do you think I am? I can think of nothing more futile than prattling on about one's emotions. As if I can prevent Nora from... drifting away if I only find the right words.
