Quotes
Alaric: "Where have you been, Isobel?"
Isobel: "I don't have any reasons that are gonna comfort you. I don't have any explanations that are gonna satisfy you. I wanted this."
Alaric: "It's that simple?"
Isobel: "Yeah,.. You were supposed to mourn me, and move on."
Alaric: "You were my wife, and I loved you. How could I not search for you?"
Isobel: "Because I wasn't lost, Ric."
Alaric: "You want me to deliver a message?"
Isobel: "Yeah."
Alaric: "Screw you, you selfish bitch!"
Elena: "What's the matter?"
Damon: "He's just back to boring, straight laced, off the junk. You've successfully cured him of anything that was interesting about his personality."
Elena: "Don't forget who helped me."
Damon: "I hate myself."
Bonnie: "So, what are we doing?"
Caroline: "Southern classic elegance."
Bonnie: "Gone with the Wind?"
Caroline: "How'd you know?"
Bonnie: "You channel Scarlet, daily."
Caroline: "So true!"
Caroline: "It's not nothing. You know, this whole float is supposed to be about friends creating something together, and everyone is fighting. Matt and Tyler hate each other. You and Elena are on the outs. I don't like it, and I can't fix it, if I don't know what's wrong."
Bonnie: "I can't talk about it, Caroline. I'm sorry."
John Gilbert: "What's with the sideshow?"
Isobel: "Cheri is a little jazz singer that I picked up in a blues bar in Brooklyn, and I got the cowboy at a gay rodeo, in Amarillo."
Isobel: "I can smell the judgement coming off of you."
John: "They're people, Isobel, and you're treating them like they're dolls."
Isobel: "If we're gonna be partners, you really have to stop being such a hater."
John: "We're in a partnership, together, because we share a mutual goal. Don't ever confuse that for an acceptance of your lifestyle."
Damon (referring to Isobel): "Did you ask her about Uncle John? Are they working together?"
Alaric: "No."
Damon: "No, they're not?"
Alaric: "No, I didn't ask."
Damon: "What about the invention?"
Alaric: "Didn't ask."
Damon: "Does she know about the tomb vampires?"
Alaric: "I don't know."
Damon: "Did words completely escape you?"
Alaric: "I was a little too distracted by my dead vampire wife, to ask any questions."
Isobel: "You look just like her. It's eerie."
Elena: "You've met Katherine?"
Isobel: "She found me after I turned. Genetic curiosity, I suppose. She would be fascinated by you."
Elena (looking at Isobel's necklace): "Is that how you can walk in the day?"
Isobel: "Katherine helped me obtain it."
Elena: "Who's my father?"
Isobel: "Not important. He was a teenage waste of space."
Elena: "A name would be nice."
Isobel: "It would, wouldn't it?"
Isobel: "Why Stefan? Why didn't you go for Damon? Or do you enjoy them both, like Katherine did?"
Damon: "She ruined your life, and you still want to protect her?"
Alaric: "She's my wife... was... was my wife. I looked for the woman I married, but she wasn't there. Whoever that is, is cold and detached."
Damon: "Yeah,.. she's given up her humanity."
Alaric: "Yeah, see I don't get that. Stefan has his humanity. He's a good guy. Hell, you're a dick, and you kill people, but I still see something human in you, but with her, there was nothing."
Damon: "You can turn it off, like a button you can press. I mean Stefan's different. He wants the whole human experience. He wants to feel every episode of How I Met Your Mother, so he shuts his feelings out. The problem is, as a vampire, your instinct is not to feel. Isobel chose the easier road, no guilt, no shame, no regret. I mean, come on, if you could turn it off, wouldn't you."
Alaric: "You haven't"
Isobel: "You're gonna get old. Stefan won't. Forever doesn't last very long, when you're human."
Isobel: "How'd you find me?"
Damon: "Searched all the neighborhood bank-owned foreclosures, and found the most expensive one."
Isobel: "Oh,.. I should have known. You were the one that taught me that. What are you really doing here?"
Damon: "Well, you caused quite a stir when you blew in to town, saw everyone except for the man who made you. I'm a little hurt."
