Elena had pulled up the sheets. She was getting cold. After Damon had left she’d started crying again and her face was wet from tears. Was this one of the many side effects chemo had? ou was this part of the cancer?
“Hi, there” a small voice a dit from the end of the bed.
“Go away” Elena a dit with heavy voice. “I don’t want anyone to see me like this” She added as she tried to dry her eyes.
“I know, which is why I brought this” Caroline a dit secretive and she lifted a bag. She walked towards the bed. “I’m going to make toi all pretty again. Now, make some room”
Elena sat up slowly, so Caroline could sink down on the bed. She searched in the bag. “We have lip gloss, nail polish, mascara, some eyeliner, make a choice”
Elena shrugged, not in the least caring.
“Okay, then I will choose myself” Caroline continued, trying to be cheerful for Elena’s sake. “We’ll start with your nails”
She opened the vial and dabbed the brush in it. She took Elena’s hand and began to polish her nails.
“For the record, this was Stefan’s idea” she a dit casual.
“I should’ve known. This is so typical Stefan” Elena mumbled.
“Elena, if I had known Bonnie was going to try and hurt you, I would’ve never told toi about that tea. I believed she was trying to make amends and I wanted to give her a seconde chance, because I thought she deserved it, but…she fooled me again” she apologized breathless, suddenly all emotional.
Elena frowned. “Caroline, hey,…I’m not blaming you. I’m not blaming Bonnie, either. This is just something that had to happen. No one could’ve foreseen this. We just have to hope that I’ll get better”
Caroline looked Elena straight in the eye. “You don’t think toi will, do you? Tell me the truth”
Elena, who wasn’t wearing her vervain collier and didn’t drink vervain tea, because it would mix with the meds, answered in all honesty. “No, I don’t. I think I’m going to die. I feel weaker every day. I believe it’s a matter of days. Then I’ll be dead”
When Elena woke from her trance Caroline was gone.

Interviewer: Was there a débats in the writer's room as to whether she would choose Stefan ou Damon in this episode, ou did toi always agree that it would be Stefan?
Julie Plec: We were heading toward the end of the road knowing that as a human, Stefan was Elena's choice. We also knew what was going to happen at the end of the episode. Elena is no longer a human when she wakes up and when the memories come back and when her whole life goes upside-down. Who's to say what that does to her? Who's to say what kind of person she becomes, and how that impacts who she loves and why she loves them? I'm not saying that's going to send her running instantly into Damon's arms, absolutely not, but it's going to nuage the issue even more.
