Episode Report Card Cindy McLennan: A- | 3 USERS: A YOU GRADE IT The Body

Matt: Doesn't he hate her?
Elena: He doesn't hate her. I think he actually kind of loves her. You're mean to the people that you care about.
Recapper: Oh please, Show. If you want us to buy that, you really should have seeded it in this season. It's not that I can't believe Damon would be a jerk to someone he actually liked or admired, but Damon has always been as anxious to sacrifice Bonnie as Elena has been to save her. Have a little respect for your own canon. If you want to reveal something like this, simply telling doesn't cut the mustard.
Matt: That's some messed up logic.
Recapper: I know, right?
Matt: No, I was talking about being mean to the people you care about.
Elena: Damon logic.
Recapper: Oh, whatever.
Matt: I want you to go somewhere with me.
Recapper: Will it involve wrapping you in a blanket and feeding you warm, chocolate pudding?
Matt: I was talking to Elena.
Recapper: Within a half an hour or so, you'll be sorry you didn't take me up on the blanket and pudding, Pudding Pop.
Matt: Look, I have to be strong now, and maintain perspective, so that it will hurt you even more when I eventually break down.
Elena: Whatever, you two. I can't leave Jeremy.
Matt: Stefan can stay here with him. Come with me, please.
Recapper: Elena, pack a bag, get in Pudding Pop's truck, drive away from this miserable town, and never, ever look back.
Meanwhile, back on the island, Damon has tied up Vaughn and is torturing him for information on his "...vixen nemesis, Katherine Pierce." He figures Vaughn must be working for her. After Rebekah digs the arrow out of her spine, she whines about it, then joins the fun.
Vaughn: Torture me all you want. You can't kill me or I'll haunt you forever.
Rebekah: Correct, but we can tear you apart, piece by piece, then heal you, then do it again and again and again.
Damon: You are creepy.
Rebekah: Thank you.
Vaughn: I didn't say I wouldn't talk. I was just trying to be hospitable. Since you'd rather not torture me, let me tell you what I know. When I was hunting in Colorado, Katherine found me and said she could help me find Silas. She knew about the mark and the cure, because she had someone on the inside -- a werewolf who's friends with your professor.
Damon: Haley.
Recapper: Damn. I thought we were done with her.
Vaughn: Kiki found Haley in New Orleans. That's all I know.
