- Stefan Salvatore: [on phone] How are you? Are you okay?
- Caroline Forbes: [sighs] Well, I'm spelled into your room by a menagerie of mean girls, but other than that...
- Valerie Tulle: Dirty-blonde hair, blue eyes, psycho. Summarized me to a T.
- [kicks Caroline, snaps her neck]
- Caroline Forbes: [as Caroline sits reading Stefan's diary] Is Valerie here?
- Caroline Forbes: I heard her leave the house. I guess torture makes her hungry.
- [fake smile]
- Lily Salvatore: [approaches] Forgive me for prying, but I heard your mother died this past spring.
- Caroline Forbes: [passively aggressive] I just spent the day reliving Stefan's first time. I *really* don't feel like talking about my dead mother with my hostage-taker. But thanks.
- Lily Salvatore: I was simply curious about... one's ability to heal after such a loss.
- Caroline Forbes: Well, you must have had a mother. I mean, even Mussolini had a mother.
- Lily Salvatore: Of course I had a mother.
- Caroline Forbes: Then you know that love is different than *any* other kind of love. Hey, Stefan wrote about you all the time. You can read for yourself. Here.
- [urges Lily to take the diary]
- Caroline Forbes: He loved you. He missed you.
- Lily Salvatore: [reads, clearly is moved by what she reads, smiles] Nora, remove the barrier spell, please. As of this moment, Ms. Forbes is no longer a prisoner.
- Caroline Forbes: [shakes her head] Uh, is this one of those mean-girl tricks?
- Lily Salvatore: No. It's a reward for Stefan's honesty. Go, before I change my mind.
- Caroline Forbes: I don't know what made your heart grow four sizes today, but... thanks.
- [rushes off with vamp speed]
