With Bonnie still trapped on the other side, Kai shows that he's not all that bad when he helps the Scooby gang unite with Bonnie.

Since Kai absorbed Luke's powers, he has also absorbed his qualities, such as empathy. In doing so, Kai brings Damon, Elena, and Jeremy to the other side to see Bonnie.

None of them can touch or reach Bonnie in any capacity, but when they see that Bonnie is drinking herself silly, Damon realizes that Bonnie has proceeded with their death pact.

Too bad Kai's powers aren't strong enough to keep them at the other side to prevent Bonnie from killing herself.

When the gang is interrupted by Liv, who wants to kill Kai, Jeremy attempts to get Kai to send him back to Bonnie one last time before it's too late.

Using Damon's plan to send Bonnie to Nova Scotia to retrieve her powers, Jeremy grabs the atlas booklet to give her a sign, but the booklet falls on the floor before Kai's powers dissolve. Will Bonnie see the booklet?

Bonnie encloses herself in the garage and turns on the car. As she slouches against the car, Bonnie records herself with Jeremy next to her. Bonnie says her goodbyes. Jeremy tries to talk Bonnie out of killing herself, but it's pointless.

Bonnie reassures herself that she's strong enough, yet as she scrambles to get on her feet, Jeremy desperately pushes the garage door button. Nothing. Push. Nothing. Push. Nothing.

Then, the garage door opens miraculously. Jeremy disappears into the sunlight as Bonnie stares out into the light.

Meanwhile, Caroline deals with her mother dying and Bonnie's absence by going into the woods to look for a childhood bear that belonged to both of them. Stefan does not see the point of Caroline's hunt for the bear yet supports Caroline by her side with a flask on hand.

Out of frustration, Caroline channels her anger, which Stefan had been wanting Caroline to do instead of looking for the bear as a distraction. However, when Stefan sees the stuffed animal, hope is not lost as the close friends bond.

At the Salvatore mansion, after Liv fails at killing Kai, Elena finds out from Jeremy that Bonnie is going to be ok, but she talks her little brother into going to art school like Bonnie had wanted for him.

Unsure he can leave Elena alone, Jeremy sits with his application to art school. While Jeremy takes the first step in getting a higher education, Elena talks to Damon about where they stand.

Damon seems to think that Elena would have picked Stefan if she were still human. Elena reassures Damon that her past lies with Stefan and that if she's not with Damon, she doesn't see herself wanting to go back to the past.

Elsewhere, Liv wakes up to find Tyler angry at her for choosing death over their relationship. Is this the end of the Gemini coven member and the sometimes werewolf?
