Falls Church Ruins Pit: Bonnie's still underground, freaking out. She keeps trying her cell phone but can't get a signal. Why is she not even trying to dig a toehold into the walls and climb herself out of there? This shit drives me crazy. Never fear though, Stefan Salvatore is here to save Bonnie and the day, after he scares the pants off her. He swoops her up and out -- into the forest, into the night. Bonnie mentions that she could hear the vamps her ancestor magically sealed beneath the tomb. "Are they in pain?" Stefan says, "In the beginning, yes. But not anymore. They've starved to the point of desiccation." Bonnie wants to know what happens if they get some blood. Stefan is too deep in denial to give a useful answer. "That's not gonna happen, Bonnie. Emily saw to that when she had you destroy the crystal. You're safe."
Bree's Bar: Elena is downing shots and getting loaded with the grown-ups and I don't want to encourage underage drinking, but she's kind of cute, here. She tells Damon he needs a bib. He tells her he can't unhinge his jaw like a snake (as she does). She orders another round from Zoe, despite the other patron who can't believe she's not on the floor by now. As Elena brags about her tolerance, a mysterious stranger (Lee; Brandon Quinn) catches Zoe's eye. She approaches him and nods in Damon and Elena's direction and we cut to...
The Mystic Grill: Jeremy and Anna are still going back and forth over actual monsters versus metaphor, but now they're doing it over a game of foosball. When Jeremy makes some horror movie references she doesn't catch (The Lost Boys and Near Dark) Anna proposes they have a "fright night" and O.D. on old horror movies. And then, we get our first inkling, since Jeremy's mind was wiped, that he still remembers being in love with Vicki. He tells Anna that he just got out of a relationship and he's not looking for anything. Anna over-compensates as she tells him she totally just meant that as a friendly invitation.
