Quotes
- Elijah: "Forever on Santa's naughty list."
- Camille (to Attendant): "Did they like... pay you?"
- Klaus: "Handsomely, and with a generous Christmas bonus. Isn't that right?"

- Klaus: "I compel her to feed me and to hang the occasional Christmas ornament. She can say whatever the hell she wants. You seem better."
- Camille: "Thank you for letting me stay here for the past couple of days...and giving me space to not talk. Why didn't you go with Elijah to help Rebekah? I hope it's not to stay and babysit me."
- Klaus: "It's not a good idea for he and I to spend hours together in confined spaces: Given that the prophecy foretells one family member felling another."
- Camille: "You don't think he would hurt you."
