From 1.01 "Pilot", night in the woods, over the fog-covered forest floor.

Stefan: (voice over) "Previously on Worlds Colliding (The Vampire Diaries)"

From 3.14 "Dangerous Liaisons", outside the boarding house, Elijah and Nicola were talking.

Elijah looked at her in concern. "Are you dying?"

Nicola chose her words carefully. "I'm always in risk of dying with the family I'm in."

From 3.15 "All My Children", in the library of the boarding house, Nicola looked very sick, falling unconscious.

Kaylin caught her in her arms, worried. "Nikki!"

Stefan, Damon and Kaylin looked at each other worriedly.

From 3.15 "All My Children", in Nicola's hospital room, Nicola was in bed.

Alaric, Stefan, Damon and Kaylin were talking to Meredith.

"The sickness her mother had?" Meredith asked. "Nicola has it."

Stefan looked at Kaylin sadly. "Astrocytoma."

"A tumor," Meredith answered. "Nicola's tumor isn't completely cancerous, though. It's laying on the muscle around her carotid artery, which blocks the blood flow to her brain."

Nicola was awake now.

Meredith and Alaric walked out, leaving.

Stefan, Damon and Kaylin walked toward Nicola.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Stefan asked.

Nicola sighed. "Honestly? I didn't think you would care."

Stefan, Damon and Kaylin looked guilty.

"And that was why you didn't think that it was worth the surgery?" Damon asked. "Because you thought we wouldn't care if you died?" Nicola looked down. "Nikki, you're literally the only thing keeping this family from imploding. Of course we care, you idiot."

Kaylin walked closer. "Listen. I know that you don't want to turn. I'm sorry that we weren't there for you before. But you can't give up, okay?"

Nicola sighed. "Okay. I won't give up. Tell Meredith to set a date for the surgery." 

Kaylin, Stefan and Damon smiled small smiles.

From 3.15 "All My Children", in the library of the boarding house, Stefan looked at the glass of blood for a moment, turning away without touching it.

Kaylin: (voice over from 3.15 All My Children) "How long has it been since you've had a drop of human blood?"

From 3.11 "Our Town", in Stefan's car, Stefan was driving crazily.

Elena was in the passenger seat, terrified.

Stefan: (voice over from 3.15 All My Children) "Since the night I threatened to drive Elena off the Wickery Bridge."

From 3.14 "Dangerous Liaisons", in the painting room, Kaylin and Klaus were talking.

"Rosalita screwed both of us up beyond compare, so that we would hurt each other even if we loved each other," Kaylin told him.

"I believe that we can fight it and break through, make it to where she has no control over either of us anymore," Klaus told her.

From 3.15 "All My Children", in the Town Square, Klaus was sitting on the bench, looking at Kaylin. "Shouldn't we take a chance at breaking the damage that has been afflicted upon us and see if we can get back to the way that we were before before Rosa got to us? Intoxicated with love, without harming each other in one way or another?"
