MYSTIC FALLS HOSPITAL
(Alaric is in the MRI; Elena and Meredith are behind a glass wall)
Elena: What are you looking for?
Meredith: I don`t know. A tumor, Anything physical that might explain his behavoir. It´s medical, I can tread it.
Elena: Yeah, what if it´s not?
Meredith: Well, then we´ll deal with that, too.
Elena: When did you suspect it? That it was Alaric who was killing all those people?
Meredith: It was after he told me about his ring. I rememered the story my grandmother told me about Samantha Gilbert and her secret journal. I don`t know if you know this, but we Fells are notorious busy bunnys.
(Elena laughs)
Elena: But then why did you protect him?
Meredith: Because I`m a doctor. I don`t like to see someone hurt by something they have no control over. And because when he and I first met I felt like...I don`t know...I...I just kinda wanna help him.
(Elena smiles and nods)
(In the MRI Alaric looks up to the ceiling; he sees hisself in a mirror; but it`s creepy `cause his reflection grins, he starts to get restless)
Alaric: What`s happening? Ah.
(Meredith asks trough the intercom)
Meredith: Everything alright in there?
(Ric closes his eyes; when he opens it, he looks just as bad as his reflection before)
Alaric: Yeah. Yeah, everything´s okay.
