Vicki and Damon dance their way upstairs to Stefan's room, and proceed to trash it. Damon, who is still without his ring, remember, flirts with the sunlight streaming through the window. Sizzler, indeed. Vicki is jumping up and down on the bed and is otherwise oblivious to him as he picks up Katherine's picture and pines over it. Next, they're slow dancing as Vicki tells Stefan the sad story of her life. She doesn't remember her dad and hears he's not worth the disk space. Her mother spends most of her time in Virginia Beach with her boyfriend Pete -- a trucker. Damon holds her tight as he says, "Your life is so pathetic." Matt is the Golden Boy on track to receive a football scholarship and eventually marry Elena and have "a lawnmower and babies." But Vicki? "When I think of my future, I just come up blank." Damon leans back and looks at her. "You are so damaged." Tearful, Vicki says, "Yep." He brushes back her hair. "You don't have one hint of self-esteem." Vicki shakes her head. "Nope. None." They touch foreheads and Damon says he think he knows what can help her. When Vicki asks, "What's that?" he caresses her cheeks. "Death." He snaps her neck before she can react, and tosses her to the floor. Straightening his still open shirt, he sighs and steps over her corpse. Commercial!
As Vicki lies lifeless on the floor, Damon makes his way toward the window. Sunlight streams through the drapes. Damon waves his hand into the deadly beams. He's less flirtatious -- more intent than he was before. He's angry. He's bored. He's lonely. He's self-destructive. After a couple of sizzlers, Vicki stirs. When she asks what happened, Damon explains that he killed her. She's dead, "But let's not make a big deal out of it. You drank my blood. I killed you, and now you have to feed in order to complete the process." Vicki is wasted, so she grabs pants that may or may not be her own, and tells Damon he is wasted and starts to leave. He tells her she doesn't want to be on her own right now because she's about to get freaky, but Vicki just wants to go home. She can't take in what he's saying -- that she's going to start craving blood. Finally, Damon decides to turn her loose on Mystic Falls, and suggests she stops by Germ's house, first. "If you see Stefan, tell him to call me."
