Recap

Everyone is getting ready for Founder's Day in Mystic Falls. Many people are dressed in retro clothing including Stephen. Damon comes and mentions his period clothes. Damon is dressed modern clothes and then they discuss Elena. Stephen wants Damon to be sure he knows that he needs to stay away from Elena due to the new found feelings that Isobel told Stephen Damon has. Damon says he gets his issue, that he is the hotter and more superior choice. Damon tells him to not worry about him turning his attention to Elena now that Katherine is gone because Elena is not Catherine. Stephen says that he is right, that she isn't Katherine. Right after that is said Elena shows up wearing a dress from when the town was founded and they look caught off guard by that because now she really does look exactly like Katherine--even how she dressed! Elena curtsies at them...

Episode Quotes
Damon: Somewhere along the way, you decided I was worth saving. I wanted to thank you for that.
Elena: You're welcome.

Damon: I'm not a hero, Elena. I don't do good. It's not in me.
Elena: Maybe it is.

Damon: Life sucks either way, Jeremy. At least if you're a vampire, you don't have to feel bad about it if you don't want to.

Tyler: I said I was sorry.
Caroline: You made out with his mother and then you beat him to a pulp. You're gonna have to do a little better than "I'm sorry."

Damon: You have no sense of humor.
Stefan: I have no sense of Damon humor.

Damon: (to Stefan) It's Founder's Day. I'm here to eat cotton candy and steal your girl.

Elena: I think you should stop with the flirty little comments and the eye thing you do.
Damon: What eye thing?
Elena: Don't make me regret being your friend.

Stefan: I try so hard to hate him, I guess it's just pointless.
Elena: You care about him, so do I. But I love, Stefan.

Elena: What can I do?
Jeremy: You can go to Hell, Elena.

Damon:It's Founder's Day. I'm here to eat cotton candy and steal your girl.

Mayor Lockwood: What are you doing here?
Damon: I'm a vampire..Whats your excuse? The vervain didn't effect you.. You're not a vampire.. What the hell are you?

Katherine: Hello John. Goodbye John. (stabs John)
