What it’s about
Damon and Sybil meet up with Seline and the twins at a diner. Seline reveals her plan to offer up Lizzie and Josie to Cade for the freedom of her and Sybil's souls. Alaric and Caroline desperately search for their daughters. Sybil decides to punish Enzo for escaping her by singing to him over the phone, thus putting herself in his subconscious where she tortures him. Stefan uses the predicament to speak to Sybil through Enzo to try and find Lizzie and Josie. Damon, Sybil, Seline, Lizzie and Josie arrive at a motel where they use magic to summon Cade. Sybil tells Stefan where she is on the condition he comes alone and promises him an offer he cannot refuse. At the motel, Cade is at first interested in Seline's offer to have the twins become his slaves in about a decade or so until Sybil gives Cade her own offer of the Salvatore brothers instead. Stefan tells Caroline that he offered up his soul and that he was granted twenty-four more hours to be with her. Bonnie and Enzo may finally be free of Sybil, who leaves his subconscious after her meeting with Cade. Alaric and Matt attack Damon, because of the former's belief that it is necessary to keep his kids safe and Alaric stakes him in the heart.
