Quotes 

• Caroline Forbes : [after their first time]  That wasn't terrible.

  Stefan Salvatore : See? Control is overrated.

  Caroline Forbes : I don't even remember how we got back to my room.

  [peeks in under the sheet at her upper body] 

  Caroline Forbes : Where is my shirt?

  Stefan Salvatore : It's near the girl we left bleeding out in the hallway.

  [both laugh] 

  Caroline Forbes : [rolls over on top of him]  You were right. Your way... is much more fun.

• Lorenzo 'Enzo' St. John : [Caroline is cleaning up meticulously]  A hard-knock life, isn't it?

  Caroline Forbes : Don't walk there. Ugh! I just washed that.

  Lorenzo 'Enzo' St. John : [bemused]  My apologies, Cinderella. What are you doing?

  Caroline Forbes : Stefan and I had a moment. Things broke in the process. And I'm returning the Scull Bar to the way we found it.

  Lorenzo 'Enzo' St. John : Uh, the whole point of flipping your humanity switch is that you don't care how you leave things.

  Caroline Forbes : [sighs]  I go to school here, Enzo. I want to keep going to school here. And the second I draw any suspicions... break-ins, broken property, dead bodies... people will try to interrupt my routine. Then... I will end up rotting in a cell somewhere instead of what I should be doing, which is preparing for my audition tomorrow.

  Lorenzo 'Enzo' St. John : You, Caroline Forbes, vampire without humanity, auditioning for the school play...

  Caroline Forbes : Musical. And obviously. Duh. I'm a drama major. What are you doing here?

  Lorenzo 'Enzo' St. John : Find My Phone led me here. That didn't explain why your... sticky fingers needed it last night.

  Caroline Forbes : You're the only one with Sarah Salvatore's phone number

  Lorenzo 'Enzo' St. John : Why do you need Sarah's number?

  Caroline Forbes : To use her life as leverage to convince Stefan to shut his humanity switch off too.

  Lorenzo 'Enzo' St. John : That's both clever and deeply unsettling. Tell me she's still alive.

  Caroline Forbes : She's alive. Assuming she survived any infections resulting from Liam's amateur surgery.

  Lorenzo 'Enzo' St. John : Which means... Stefan's humanity is a thing of the past.

  Caroline Forbes : Like I said... I will stop at nothing to maintain my routine. So I suggest that you stay away.

  [hands him the mop] 

  Caroline Forbes : Now if you don't mind... I need to prepare for my audition.

• Caroline Forbes : [Stefan's obviously sabotaged motorcycle just fell apart]  Oh, shoot, is your bike okay? Do you need money for the bus?

  Stefan Salvatore : Seriously?

  Caroline Forbes : I just had to stuff the director's body into a furnace. Do you know how hard it was to get an audition during spring break?

  Stefan Salvatore : Oh, come on, it was easy for you, Caroline. All you had to do was shed some tears about your Mom's funeral, play the cancer card, and, boom, your precious routine is back on track. Am I wrong?

  Caroline Forbes : This is your only warning. Go... away.

  Stefan Salvatore : Neat, organized Caroline... staying within the lines. Good at control, terrible at revenge.

  Caroline Forbes : I dismantled your bike.

  Stefan Salvatore : I tore your director's head off with my teeth. Oh, my God, Caroline, did you literally just unbolt this damn thing? I mean, It's gonna take me, like, what, ten minutes to put this bike together? You're an embarrassment to humanity-free vampires everywhere.

  [she comes forward without saying a word and retaliates by punching a hole in the petrol tank, with fuel sloshing out as she walks away smirking while Stefan looks on stoically]
