MYSTIC FALLS HIGH

Matt is using a bench-press machine in the weight room. He stops for a rest and hears a noise. He gets up and walks through the school. He finally enters a classroom. It's dark inside, and when he steps inside he sets off a number of mouse traps that have been placed on the floor. He turns on the light. Tyler, Lily, Caroline, Elena and Bonnie are here setting the traps.

Caroline: Ohh! Oh, come on! Seriously?! Do you know how long it took for us to set all this up?!

Tyler: Forgot about senior prank night, huh?

Matt: Clearly.

Caroline: How could you forget? We've only been waiting for this since like freshman year.

Elena: Yeah, Matt. If I'm doing this, you're doing this.

Matt: I'm kind of surprised any of you are doing this

Lily: Caroline's making us.

Caroline: We're about to be seniors. These are the memories that will stay with us forever, and if we don't...

Elena: And if we don't create these memories now, then what's the point of it all?

Caroline: Go ahead and make fun, I don't care.

Tyler: You're all lame. And I've got ten more classrooms to prank.

He takes his bag and leaves. Elena's about to leave too.

Bonnie: Hey!

Lily: Where are you going?

Elena: To superglue Alaric's desk shut. I'm making memories.

She smiles walking out of the room.

POOL ROOM

Lily, Matt, and Bonnie are putting toilet paper on the swimming pool.

Bonnie: This is fun, right?

Matt: Hey Lil, this is fun, right?

Lily: Yeah this is fun

Bonnie looks between them and sighs.

Bonnie: Can you at least talk to me?

Lily and Matt: Nope.

Bonnie sighs, her eyes welling up with tears.

Bonnie: I'm-----I'm sorry, Lily

Lily: Are you really?

Bonnie: Yes I'm really really sorry about how I've been treating you. I'm sorry for letting Stefan get in my head. I shouldn't have let him do that. You're one of my best friends

Matt: Do you believe her?

Lily: Yeah I do

She walks towards Bonnie throwing her arms around her and embraces her tightly. Bonnie hugs her back tightly.

Lily pulls and away and heads to the men's room. She goes into the three stalls and grabs the toilet paper from each one. On her way out, one of the doors open by itself behind her. She enters the stall, sees some graffiti that says "R.I.P. Vicki" and then closes the door. Esther is behind her

Esther: I'm here, darling

Lily: I know.

Esther: Niklaus and Rebekah are here. I need you to---

Lily: What? Klaus is here? If he knows my sister is alive, he'll----who's Rebekah?

Esther: My daughter. She may not harm you but Niklaus has a hold on her. He controls her every doing so I need you to be safe, my love.
