Veronica parked her car in front of the old building. She walked out of the car and Rachel, who had come with her, followed her. Veronica walked up to the door and opened. “Get inside” she told Rachel. After Rachel entered Veronica locked the door. She waved at the people in the back and they stopped with what they were doing. One of the guys came their way.
“Hello, Veronica” he said.
“Hello, Derek” Veronica replied. “How’s it going?”
“It’s going very good. They are getting really good. I think we have a real chance in beating those…”
“Abominations” Veronica said helpful. “Don’t think it. You have to be sure. We’ll only get one chance, we can’t screw it up”
Derek nodded. “Of course” he said. “I understand”
“Good” Veronica said. “Did you find out anything useful lately?”
Derek started talking about how Stefan and Damon weren’t drinking vervain anymore. How Rebekah was able to compel other vampires.
“And Meredith Fell is using vampire blood to cure people” Veronica said. “I wonder what’s up with that”
“You want me to dig into it?” Derek asked.
“No” Veronica said. She rotated her head to Rachel. “You know Rachel”
Derek nodded.
“Rachel wants to help us. Why don’t you tell her what she needs to know?” Veronica suggested.
“Hello, Veronica” he said.

Interviewer: Was there a debate in the writer's room as to whether she would choose Stefan or Damon in this episode, or did you always agree that it would be Stefan?
Julie Plec: We were heading toward the end of the road knowing that as a human, Stefan was Elena's choice. We also knew what was going to happen at the end of the episode. Elena is no longer a human when she wakes up and when the memories come back and when her whole life goes upside-down. Who's to say what that does to her? Who's to say what kind of person she becomes, and how that impacts who she loves and why she loves them? I'm not saying that's going to send her running instantly into Damon's arms, absolutely not, but it's going to cloud the issue even more.
