The Vampire Diaries (2009–2017): Season 4, Episode 3 - The Rager - full transcript

Elena learns confronting Rebekah (CLAIRE HOLT) can be dangerous. Tyler gets a surprise visit from Hayley (PHOEBE TONKIN - The Secret Circle), a werewolf who helped him with Klaus.

Mystic Falls,
I was born here.

This is my home.

- And mine.
- And mine.

For centuries, supernatural creatures
have lived among us.

They are
vampires, werewolves,

dopplegangers, witches.

And even hybrids.

And then there's Elena.

She's one of us now.

She's strong.

If we help her,
she can survive.



She didn't even
keep my blood down.

Our town has
always been different...

Stefan, I'm losing it.

Feed from me.

But now there are
strange things happening

that no one can explain.

- Nice ink.
- What ink?

You didn't see his tattoo?

And there's
a new hunter in town

who wants people
like me dead.

Don't bother.
It's a paralytic.

Good day for
a midlife crisis.

164 years,
I'd say you're due.

Elena's transition to vampire
has been a little depressing.



I'm gonna help her
have some fun.

Oh. Those
who can't do teach.

Oh, I see we're
still fighting.

Got it.
Where you going?

That hunter jacked Tyler Lockwood
of his werewolf venom last night,

so basically he's got
vampire poison in a bottle,

and I'm gonna find him,
and I'm gonna eat him.

I'll go with you.
I don't want your help.

I just wanna kill this guy
and get the hell out of town.

Isn't that the deal?

Whoever Elena
doesn't choose leaves?

That was before
she turned.

And I stayed to help,

but I take you punching me
as the first clue...

I'm not wanted here anymore.

Listen, you blood-shared
with my girlfriend,

and I punched you
in the face.

You deserved it.

Why don't you stop
being dramatic?

No, brother.
Dramatic would be

leaving before
I kill this hunter.

Thank you for doing this.

I can't keep
anything else down.

It's ok. I kind of owe you
my life, remember?

Yeah, but I didn't
make Stefan save your life

so that I could turn you
into a human blood bank.

Elena, please just
let me do this for you.

Is that enough?

No.

But if I had any more,

I'm afraid
I wouldn't stop.

Here.

Thank you.

So you really think school is
the best place for you right now?

The vampire hunter knows
that Damon's a vampire

and that I know Damon.

Hiding at home would
be more suspicious.

Besides,
I want to be here.

It's my senior year.

I survived this long.

There's no way
I'm bailing before graduation.

Town called for curfew?

Tyler got shot
in front of half the town.

Everyone's
a little freaked.

If only they
knew the real story.

Who the hell are you two?

Tyler, it's ok.

They're here
for your protection.

- More deputies?
- Not exactly.

They're hybrids.

I was halfway to Chicago

when I heard
you were attacked.

I had hoped to leave Mystic Falls
for good, but duty calls.

Nice to know you care.

I don't.
I should have killed you

for the little stunt you
and your friends pulled...

stopping my heart,

leaving me
in a coffin to rot.

Yeah, well, you used my body
as an escape hatch,

then kissed my girlfriend,
so maybe we're even.

Not even close.

But you hybrids
are a dying breed.

I can't make more of you,

and I won't have
anyone taking liberties

with the ones I have left.

Consider them
your new bodyguards.

So first time we've been
back in Alaric's classroom.

The first period,
and I'm ready to bawl my eyes out.

Morning, everyone.

And just like that,

I'm no longer
feeling sentimental.

So I'm throwing a little
anti-curfew party

at my new house...

starts
in the fifth period,

goes to whenever.
Spread the word.

You're welcome
to join, Elena,

if you'd like
to bury the hatchet.

It's a pretty
enormous hatchet.

Well, I'm feeling
generous of spirit.

New house, huh?

Did your brother
finally kick you out?

He didn't kick me out.
I left.

So you left the only person on earth
that actually likes you?

Well, your boyfriend
liked me once.

Actually, a lot more
than once.

Why are you still
in town, Rebekah?

Don't you have
anywhere else to go?

Well, history's
my favorite class.

Actually, where is
Mr. Saltzman?

Oh, that's right.

I killed him.

Just breathe.
Just breathe.

You haven't felt this kind
of rage before.

I hate her.

I didn't think
I was capable of hate,

but I hate her and
hate that I hate her.

That's the hunter.

What the hell
is he doing here?

That's Jeremy.

No.
No, no, no. Hey.

You get this, ok?

I got that.

There you are.

Rebekah sent me
to see if you were ok.

I'm fine, Heather.

I'm not.

What's wrong, Elena?

Getting hungry?

No, g-get away from me.

But she's so delicious.

You shouldn't be here.

This is my school.
It's my life,

and I'm not gonna
let you ruin it.

It's my school now,
my life.

Maybe you're the one
who shouldn't be here.

And I couldn't help
but overhear

that there's a vampire hunter
roaming the hallways.

How inconvenient for you.

See you in gym.

I think
it's dodgeball day.

You mind telling me who you are
and why I'm here?

I'm happy
to miss bio, but...

I looked into
your family's history.

You and your sister have
been through quite a lot.

What are you,
a social worker?

What do you care?

Because you saw this.

Mm, it's a tattoo.
Big deal.

No, I call this
a hunter's mark,

as in vampire hunter.

Uh, a vampire hunter?

Heh. Look,
I'm sorry, man, but...

Jeremy, I know your family's history
in this town,

so you playing dumb
just makes you look dumb.

Why the show and tell?
I don't even know you.

Because it's invisible

to anyone but another hunter
or potential hunter.

Find me a vampire.

I'll train you,
teach you how to do what I do.

I'm on Hudson,
off route 13.

Don't show up
unless you find one.

Well, how am I
supposed to do that?

Why don't you start by asking your friend
with the bandage on his neck?

Aah! Unh!

Ow.

Hmm.

Um...

Yeah.

It was a valiant
first-day effort.

No one will judge you
if you want to go home.

I don't want to go home.

I want to take the white-oak stake
and kill her.

That's how mad I am.
She made me murderous.

How about we just leave
the murdering to Damon?

And... and then do what?
Ignore her to death?

Look, she's trying
to make herself feel better.

She knows that
everybody hates her,

so she's trying
to hate harder.

Tell you what.

Let's just skip
the rest of the day,

go have some fun.
I feel like

this day is
severely lacking in fun.

Yeah. Ok, fine.

We'll go to her party
and show her

that she can't
intimidate me.

I just have to go home
and change first.

Does she seem a little
off-balance to you?

Yeah. She's channeling
all her emotions into rage.

Makes her feel
like she has purpose.

I used to do that, too,
when I was, you know...

- Ripper you?
- Yeah.

She needs to come
to terms with it,

confront it, let it in
before she can let it go.

Mm-hmm.

You're good at this.
You know that?

You saved my vampire life.
Now you're saving hers.

You shoush write a book,
go on "the view."

Hmm.

So this is where you've
been hiding, huh?

Hayley?

Hey, Lockwoof.

Ass. I thought
Klaus killed you.

I should have called.

From your trailer park
in Florida. You liar!

You're totally loaded.
Uh...

I chained you up
all over the Appalachians.

I talked you through
every turn.

I helped you
break the sire bond.

You could have told me
your real story.

I didn't want anybody
to follow me back.

Werewolves weren't
safe around Klaus,

and you shouldn't
be here either.

His hybrids are all over this house
and so is he.

I know.
One of his hybrids

is with a pack I ran with.

He called me and told me
that he was coming

to protect a guy
named Tyler, and I thought,

"what are the chances?"

Well, the least
you could do

is pour me some fancy,
rich-people scotch.

Sure.

Absolutely.

Why were you
being so cryptic?

Come in.
Close the door.

Tell me that is
not a bomb.

Ok. It's a kitten.

It's an adorable
exploding kitten.

Why didn't you
call your brother?

Because I'm proud
and stubborn and...

Oh, look.
You're already here.

Come on. You're not
gonna get hurt.

All I need you to do
is be doctorly,

cut out the arrow.

I'd do it myself,
but if I move...

Psssh!

Ok.

Ok.

So how well did you
know pastor Young?

He was a patient of mine.

He was always a nice guy.

Nice crazy guy.

He wrote a letter
about sacrifice

and war brewing
in Mystic Falls.

What does he mean,
"a greater evil is coming"?

I mean, we have
great enough evil already.

You'd think.

How'd you get stuck
on hunter duty?

Stefan had a physics test.

You are a good brother.

I'm the bad brother.

You're strung up to a bomb
while Stefan plays vampire

with a girl who
broke your heart,

but you are doing
a very good job

of acting like
it doesn't suck.

Ok, I think
that should be good.

Hey, Matt.

So I'm having
a little party.

You should, uh,
ditch last period and come.

Look, I know
you're still angry

I ran you off the bridge,

but you have to understand
Alaric killed my brother.

He was trying to kill me.
I had to do something to stop him.

I never wanted
to hurt you.

What'd you say last time?

Hickeys?

Kinky girlfriend.

Who you letting
feed on you?

I don't know what
you're talking about.

I don't know
where I got that.

Sure about that?

Tell me which one

of your High School friends
is a bloodsucker.

It's...

Rebekah.

Rebekah Mikaelson.

Thank you.

When you wake up,
she'll be long gone.

Hope you plan
on cleaning this up.

I need bourbon to get through
Rebekah's party.

Yours is better
than Stefan's.

Oh. Top drawer
in the dresser.

Thanks.

You keep alcohol
in your underwear drawer?

No.

You weren't looking for alcohol,
were you?

Do you think
I'd actually leave

the last remaining
white oak stake

where any vampire could just walk in
and take it?

What happened to you?

Hunter mishap.

You know he was
at my school today?

Yep. Jeremy told me.

Why were you
talking to Jeremy?

Don't worry about it.

Damon, don't bring him
into this.

Perish the thought he might
actually be useful, Elena.

You staying
for the show, or...

I'm finding that stake.

You got a vampire for me?

No, but I know where
you can find one.

There's a doctor,
Meredith Fell,

she uses vampire blood
in surgery.

I think she has
a deal with one,

her blood for his.

You see,
that's the problem.

When a town protects
one vampire,

word spreads.
More come.

They feed. They turn.

Soon you got
a full-on infestation.

Your High School,
for example,

is crawling with 'em.

One's even
throwing a party.

Is that where we're going?

Nah, we're going
to the hospital.

As long as people are drinking
at that High School party,

I got it covered.

They'll be dead
by sundown.

Wow. We didn't have
to be invited in.

I wonder
who used to live here.

Or who died here.

You're fixating.

No, I'm just
quietly hating.

This is mine now.

Thank you.

Why don't you
have a drink?

It'll help you let go.

April's here.

I'm gonna go say hi.

And I am gonna find something
a little stronger than beer.

Ok.

I ditched Rebekah's
ditching party.

What's with all
the testosterone?

Hybrids.

I'm on house arrest.

Says who? Your mom?
Come on. Sneak out.

Not my mom, Caroline.

You're kidding me.

Klaus?

You're a new face.

And I take it
from your accent

you're an old one.
Klaus.

My reputation precedes me,
hopefully not all bad.

A little bad,
mostly repulsive.

So you're a friend
of Tyler's.

That's strange.

He's never mentioned you.

You should go the party.

I'll be fine here.

But I'd rather
hang with you.

Trust me.
I am no fun right now.

And I think I know why.

- Hey.
- Elena.

Thank God I know someone.

I'm glad you came.
Are you thirsty?

You know, you used to read me
bedtime stories.

And now I'm
giving you beer.

Sounds about right.

If my dad
could see me now.

How are you...

Doing with everything?

I'm trudging through
my denial phase...

Dreaming up
conspiracy theories.

My first weekend home
from boarding school,

my dad smelt cigarette smoke
on my clothes

before I even
walked in the door.

He would have noticed
a gas leak in the house.

So you... you don't think
that it was an accident?

I know there's
no investigation,

that everyone's
calling it an accident,

but the shooting at the church,
it just feels like...

like something wicked this way comes.
I know, right?

It's like this town's
cursed or something.

Hey, April, why don't you go
look around the house,

and I'll find you
in a little bit.

Ok.

Did I forget
to uninvite you?

Did you blow up
her dad's house

to get revenge
on the council?

I don't give a damn

about some dodgy
middle-aged council.

You come into my house,
throw around false accusations,

and then you have the nerve
to drink my beer?

My ring.

Give it back.

Get it yourself.

No!

Damon give that to you?

Yes, reluctantly.

Stefan, she's...
she's not gonna stop.

She's just gonna keep
pushing and pushing.

Well, if you want
to kill her,

I'm not gonna stop you.

But, see,
here's what'll happen.

It'll feel really good
for about 10 seconds,

and then after that,

tens and thousands of vampires
all over the world will start to die.

Every vampire
she ever turned will die.

See, rage is
a really powerful feeling...

But guilt...
Take it from me...

It'll destroy you.

So you can either
go after her,

or you can get on the back
of my motorcycle...

And we can get
the hell out of here.

Leaving so soon?

No.

Not just yet.

I never got a drink.

Chug! Chug! Chug!

Chug! Chug! Chug!

Chug! Chug!
Chug! Chug! Chug!

Chug! Chug! Chug!

Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!

Chug! Chug! Chug!

Chug! Chug!

Now I'm ready to go.

What in the hell?

She's quite fetching,
that Hayley.

Where is she?

Oh, she had to run,
but don't worry.

I had her take the back door
so Caroline wouldn't see.

- Whatever you think you know...
- I don't know anything,

but I've put together a pretty
convincing picture.

Why don't you tell me
where my imagination

deviates from reality?

You went off to the Appalachians
to break my sire bond.

There, you met
a pack of werewolves,

begged them for help.
Among them was a girl.

She was gorgeous,

with the same
animal instincts as you.

Emotions ran high.
Inhibitions ran low.

Stop it.

Then, in a moment
of weakness,

the thick sexual tension
became something much more real.

I said stop!

And Caroline has no idea.

Hello, Damon.

Klaus, where's Tyler?

Tyler's otherwise occupied

making big decisions
about honesty and what not.

Is there
anything I can do?

I'm going after
the vampire hunter,

so if he'd like to join...

He wouldn't.

I, however...

That's her.

Stay here.

Is a hospital really the best place
for a germophobe?

Did I say that
I was a germophobe?

Pfft. Sorry.

I meant vampire.

Oh.

Stings, doesn't it?

Hello, mate.

No.

Are you ok?

Stefan.

What's wrong with me?

Damon said the hunter
had werewolf venom.

Oh, my God.

You don't look so hot.

Whatever it is, it's not
the white-oak stake,

so it can't kill me.

I'm surprised
you came to my party.

Well, I thought about it.

You explained why
you ran me off the bridge,

so least I could do
is explain how I feel.

The truth is, Rebekah,
I think you're amazing.

You've had a thousand years

to learn, to grow,
and to start fresh...

And somehow you've managed
to throw it all away.

Now you're alone.

You're compelling
your friends.

Your brother hates you.

You whine about
not finding love.

The reason
you don't find love

is because
you don't deserve it.

Keep it up, buddy.

We'll be scraping you
off the ceiling.

You two are gonna
kill me anyway.

Well, let's not
be too hasty.

I feel like we're just getting
to know each other.

Start with the basics.

Where are you from?
What do you know?

Maybe you can cue me in on this
greater evil,

because I've
fought this guy,

and there's nothing
more evil than that.

Yeah, truth be told,
I'm as evil as it gets.

I'm not telling you
anything.

You think if you kill me,
it's gonna be over?

There's another waiting
to take my place.

See, this is what
I like to hear...

Vague threats,
ominous prophecies,

disappearing tattoos.

What do you mean,
"tattoos"?

Don't bother.
You can't see the damn thing.

There's more to you
than meets the eye, isn't there?

Nice try, but I'm faster
than your average vampire.

Aah!

You're one of the five.

The what?

I'm faster than
the average hunter.

Klaus, where the hell
are you?

Hey.

Why am I thinking
about you?

Because you're
a vampire now...

And part of you knows

you're a lot more like me
than you are like him.

- You came.
- I did.

And for future reference,
one voice-mail

is just as effective as 9.

What's wrong, love?

She has werewolf venom
in her system.

You know you're the only one
that can heal her, Klaus. Please.

And what would you have done
if I were no longer here?

Hmm? If you
and your friends

had succeeded in ridding
the world of me?

Let's play that game
for a moment, shall we?

- Whatever you want from me...
- I don't want anything from you.

Her, on the other hand...

If you had told me
a few hours ago,

I wouldn't have cared a lick
about her dying.

But as it turns out...

You may be of use
to me after all.

There we go.

Hey. Way to bail
on your own party.

I just...
I needed a minute.

Did everyone leave?

Yeah, deputies weren't
actually super happy

about the anti-curfew party.

Why are you still here?

Um, honestly?

Um, picking up trash
is a hell of a lot better

than sitting at home alone, thinking
about the family I no longer have.

Hey, uh, if you want,

I could, uh... I could
help you look into

what happened with the fire
at your farmhouse.

Heh. What are you gonna
be able to do that I can't?

You'd be surprised.

So the sniper was inside?

Yep. Still is, in tiny,
little pieces.

Good. I'll cancel
the curfew

and call off
the extra patrols.

I can't say I approve
of your methods.

I'll make a donation.

They'll name a wing
after me, maybe.

See? I told you
I could be a badass.

Shh. Badasses
don't say that.

Doc. Nice job.

You told me the plan was to lead him
to the storage room.

And we did. Congrats.

You left out the part
about blowing up a hospital,

with patients
who are sick and fragile

and who don't need things
exploding down the hall from them.

It was contained.
Nobody got hurt.

Come on.
Buy me a farewell drink.

We'll talk about what the hell
Klaus meant by "the five."

You know you're not
going anywhere, Damon,

and I am not your new partner
in vampire crime.

Fix things
with Stefan and Elena.

Don't let your pride
leave you all alone.

Hey.

Hey.

Thanks for coming.

Not every day I get summoned
by a Salvatore.

So what's up?

Do you remember what you
were like before you turned?

Mm, you mean an insecure
control freak?

- Heh.
- Yeah.

You grew into yourself
when you became a vampire.

You changed.

And Elena,
she's changing, too.

And I want her
to be able to enjoy it

without all the guilt and shame
that I went through.

And there was a moment
today when she did.

And when I'm with her,
every bone in my body

tells me to join her,
to enjoy it.

But I know that if I do,

even a little...

I risk becoming him.

The ripper.

I love her,

and I don't want
to hold her back.

But you don't know
how to be around her

and still
resist that urge.

Damon promised he'd help me
stay off the edge,

but, uh, he and I, we're not
in a very good place right now,

not when it comes to her.

I just thought
you're so good at it,

at being a vampire.

Because of you, Stefan.

I'm good at it
because of you.

Come to me
whenever you want,

and I won't let you
lose control.

Elena, hey.

If I'd known you were gonna go
to that party,

I never would have told Connor
about Rebekah.

I already had this conversation
with Jeremy.

There's no way you guys could
have known that I would go.

I mean, I was surprised
that I went.

Stefan warned me that I would
feel things more powerfully,

but, Matt, the hatred
that I felt today...

I almost...

I almost killed her
in front of everyone,

in the middle of a party.
That's not me.

Or at least, it didn't...
didn't use to be.

Honestly, Elena,

Rebekah kind of
deserves it.

Yeah, but it's not
just about Rebekah.

It's about my mind.

I'm having these
terrible thoughts, sthese...

Violent images, and I...

it's all driven
by one simple thing,

this hunger.

Hey, Elena, you sure you wanna
take that much?

Elena.

Elena, that hurts.
Elena.

Elena. Ele...

Elena! Elena.

Stop.

Stop.

Oh, my God.

Matt, I'm sorry.

I'm so...
I'm so sorry.

I... I didn't mean to.

It's ok.

Forget what just happened.

You came over,
she fed a little bit, and you left.

Now go home.

What have I done?

Nothing you
should be ashamed of.

You are a vampire now.

You just have to learn
the right way to be one.

And I'm gonna teach you.

You saved me?

Congratulations.

You just became worth
more to me alive than dead

what... what did
you mean

when you said I was
one of the five?

You don't know
your own history?

Well, let's just say
it's made you

the most well protected
vampire hunter in town.
