Quotes 

• Tessa : [to Damon]  So you live in this ancient giant mansion with two doppelgangers that are destined to end up together. I'm sure there's a sitcom in there somewhere.

• Damon Salvatore : [as Tessa opens door]  I was hoping we could talk.

  Tessa : And I was hoping you'd be my Chinese food. Goodbye.

  [about to slam door in his face] 

• Tessa : Well, if it isn't the face... that launched a thousand doppelgangers. A little birdie told me you aren't enjoying your immortal life.

  [seething:] 

  Tessa : Two thousand years, you have nothing to say to me? No apology?

  Amara : I'm sorry.

  Tessa : What was that?

  Amara : I'm sorry.

  Tessa : Oh?

  Amara : That's what you want to hear, isn't it? How I've suffered. How every moment of my life has been a living hell. It has. My sin was falling in love, and I've learned my lesson. You win. You win, now please kill me.

  [crying] 

  Amara : Please. Please kill me.

  Tessa : Don't worry. When I make someone else the Anchor, I will. And since you're nothing more than a none-supernatural human being, you'll pass on while Silas is trapped on the Other Side. And then you... and Silas... you're gonna spend eternity apart. And that is gonna be kind of fantastic for me. Selfishly speaking.
