previously, on The Vampire Diaries…

Matt Donovan: Man, and I thought I hated it when coach made me run suicides! Klaus making me run homicides is way worse!

Jeremy the Vampire Slayer: Damon! You said I wouldn’t have to kill any innocent people!

Klaus: In an interesting legal loophole, I killed the innocent people. Now you just have to kill the innocent vampires!

Damon Salvatore: That’s a great plan, Klaus! I sure hope no one uses a carefully worded promise to screw us all over later in the episode!
